Thanks to prillalar, I got to see the Prince of Tennis dub (via Youtube because I wasn't about to download it just out of curiosity). It was pretty good. I didn't think it'd suck, but it was better than I expected. I kind of reserve final judgement, though, until the Seigaku regulars appear. What I really disliked were the opening and ending credits. Crappy instrumental music set to randomly selected and edited shots from the Japanese openings and closings and the show itself. *shrugs* Ryoma's voice was okay (so far), though the punch of "mada mada da ne" is missing. *sighs* And, well, not like he can really touch MinaJun...But putting aside comparisons, he's really (so far) not bad at all.

I've been going around reading reactions to the SGA season premiere and I am struck by a big difference between my viewing and many others in fandom. When I saw the episode, I was just watching a TV show. I was not looking for interactions to feed my pairings or find new pairings to fangirl over. It was odd seeing how people were all "character x/character y must be written!!" instead of commentary on the canon interactions. ( More specific spoilerish examples. )

Maybe I'm just spoiled by the blatant fanservice of anime, I need a bit more to really go theyaresocanongay or whatever.
