"Rave Master" on Ani-Monday Talkback (Spoilers!)

Did we really have to know the Butt Bandits reaction? After all that is what I was thinking during this whole episode, what would the Butt Bandits think.

Seriously who cares?
 
When did every fight center around good and evil? What about Spike vs. Vicious? Kallen vs. Suzaku? Nostalgia Critic vs. Angry Video Game Nerd? Every football rivalry in existence?

(Well, except Kansas and Missouri. We're the good guys.)

"And suddenly I am convinced to change sides."
 
So that guy that was selling jewels to Gale was Muzika's mentor AND Lance actually has purpose on the story besides being a villain for a story arc?

I admit, that's a nice twist.
 
Last week......stupid stuff happened.

.......what? I can't possibly explain it in a serious way.

Tonight, a new story arc mercifully arrives.

12 AM: Under the Tremolo Mountain - Part 1
12:30 AM: Under the Tremolo Mountain - Part 2
 
Haru eating his jewelry. That's actually pretty funny.

King really goes for the the evil overlord image:
Haru: "You're a MADMAN!"
King:"Muhahahaha!"

Yes, I could see why Haru's Dad thought he could trust the guy with the wart nose.
 
(sigh)

Maybe it's best to not watch it, because if I end up liking it after all, everyone here is gonna bash me just because I would be the only person to like it.

In other worRAB, it's risky for me to even watch it.

Yeah, that's it, sorry...
 
This whole hour is going to be flasrabroadacks, isn't it?

Well, bonus points for King being turned into a supervillain by Gale.
 
Those guns don't go ZAP! They go BANG! And maybe RAT-TAT-TAT-TAT-TAT!

"You will always be in my heart."
Even though we met only five minutes ago.

"I expected a little more emotion out of you, junior."
Blame the English language voice director.

ANOTHER GUN!!! What is with this show, they turn blood into ink and yet they let the bad guys carry GUNS!?!
 
"Yessir, this is the END of the world, no BUTTS about it!"

*dodges flying debris and Molotov cocktails*

OH GOOD LORD THEY'RE BACK AGAIN!!!

"Nice to see you again, Rave Master!"
What was that line all about? I thought they wrote him out. He's not even here.

YAAAAAAY there's no more Shadow Guard the show's finally over HOORAY!!
 
I knew from reading on Wikipedia, one of them switched sides, and I guess we know who is now.

You want to know the ultimate final insult of the end of the series. It feels like a waste of time for the viewing audiance, with what they did or didn't do.

.
 
Hey, he should be thanking him. He finally got Elie to shut up.

Age before beauty? What's that got to do with this?!

Watching paint dry? How cliche.
 
Well, that was anti-climatic.

Wait, King just wiped out his whole organization? WTH?!

Oh, so King NOW repents for his evil deeRAB. A little too late dude!
 
Yesss, Haru, there is no good or evil. Only power and those too weak to seek it!



That's because she's hot. And some people get a kick out of her ridiculous lines.

She's popular in other places too for personality, but it's always in regarRAB to the original manga (or sometimes the original version of the anime, but not much people know about that anyway.)



The anime never got good ratings even in Japan, so it was cancelled right toward the start of the second story arc. Personally, I think they should have just altered things a little so that the whole show just ended once King is defeated. That way, we wouldn't have gotten the abrupt ending that we did get.
 
I no longer trust this show. Not one bit.

It is not because it never takes itself seriously enough.

It is because IT DOESN'T WANT TO.

Upon the end of the first part of The Sound of Thunder, which actually took the show in a more sober direction, I had expectations that we were actually going to see a more serious turn for a change, that this "Thunderman" would be a tyrannical despot who willfully torments the people of the town with endless rainfall, and that we would enjoy a decent battle between him and Haru which would maybe give us some character development for Elie.

How was I rewarded for my patience two weeks later? An idiotic movie star side villain weilding a giant clown hammer, his bubbleheaded girlfriend, their FILM CREW, and a seemingly endless medley of hypnotic dancing, horrible dub songs, inappropriate dialogue, comic mistaken identity, and a special effects machine that they simply FORGOT TO TURN OFF.

You know a Rave Master arc is bad when it doesn't need Elie's sense of non-humor to make it worse.

I have come to the conclusion that the Shadow Guard requires all of its new recruits to take intelligence tests to determine their rank, as it appears that all of their lower-tier officers and their henchmen have IQ scores in the single digits.

It has also become apparent that the purpose of this show is not to entertain. It is to suck the mortal soul out of its unfortunate viewer, stomp on it relentlessly and repeatedly while wearing golf shoes, and then cast it into the Pit of Ultimate Despair where it shall know nothing but pain, suffering and abject misery day and night for all eternity.

To paraphrase the great philosopher Crow T. Robot, I want to hurt this show, but I can never hurt it the way it hurt me.
 
WILL YOU JUST GO AWAY, YOU POINTLESS CHARACTERS! I DON'T WANT TO REMErabER! ANIT-LIFE JUSTIFIES MY HATE! ANIT-LIFE JUSTIFIES MY HATE!


Wait, isn't Reina part of the organization or that reishi 6?
 
Yeah, he basicly blow up his own organisation, apperently killing his own soulders.

I say apprentely, because I doubt they are all dead. The shadow guarRAB are too awesome and important to die so easily.
