I’m Debating Whether I Should Continue Blogging Code Geass

Not because I think it sucks or is a trainwreck like everyone else seems to think now, but because everyone else seems to think it sucks and it’s a trainwreck.  I mean what’s the point?  People have already made up their mind on this series and are just going to end up commenting that it sucks, is poorly written and this and that etc if I bother to take the time to give my thoughts on it anymore.  I don’t know about other people, but I’m just trying to get a little enjoyment out of this series while I still have the slim opportunity of a chance to.  That can only be done if I just watch it in private and don’t follow any of what anybody say about it on the internet anymore in my opinion.  It’s a shame really, but the negativity about the series has really killed it for me in the last few weeks.

Detroit Metal City Episode 01

This Is One Of The Most Family Friendly Lines In The Entire Show.  No I’m Not Motherfucking Kidding!

So I decided to give this show a chance (read: was inundated with people yelling at me to watch it which usually ends in misery for all involved parties) after being told it was one of the funniest comedies to come out this year and I thought,  why not since it didn’t look like it was based entirely around slapstick comedy crap like all of the other so called “comedy” animes lately.  I have to say, I’m pleasantly surprised and found this show to be genuinely amusing.  It’s signature style is in it’s very essence, an over the top parody of those death metal bands you see trying to be as hardcore as humanly possible and the contrast between the main characters meek civilian J-Pop loving persona and his secret identity as the hardcore, take no prisoners, scum of the earth, Krauser of the popular death metal band Detroit Metal City.

Boss #5:  Prepare Yourselves For This Weeks Challenge!

Hmmmm….so the Knight of Rounds characters are kind of starting to seem more like boss fights to me then actual characters, other then perhaps Anya. Does anyone get a sort of Knightmare Frame of the Week feel from then. Not that that’s bad or anything since they provide fairly worthy adversaries for the most part, but how long do we really think Monica and Dorothy are going to last?
