[EVA] [gainax] FLCL volume 01

[RJN]

: I just get really confused when animes I think are total
: dogs end up praised by all and sundry. Key the Metal Idol
: and Noir I thought were both total turds and yet I've found
: nary a negative comment on the net. I'm just curious as to
: what other people are seeing in them that I'm not.

Noir - I am a Kotono Mitsuishi (Misato) fan, so Noir is a must-buy for
me. Nice to have her in a darker-than-Eva role after being Excel. Going
deep-voice is probably good therapy, and the change of character won't
do her talent range any harm anyway. Think Misato in EoE, only much more
menacing & unscrupulous.

Key TMI. Not watched, but bought as a series over 3 DVDs.

Hellsing is too hyped IMO. So actually are the Eva movies (a lot of
people are going to be disappointed), but then I bought the Japanese
version & watch with BB's script, so *my* excitement has died. Shame
about the dub Misato's language though (saw at a a con).
