Watched Black Lagoon episodes 16-18 today...OMG it was retarded and really funny. A very nice change from the rather heavy episodes 13-15 arc. And Eda!! She sort of annoyed me previously, but they've managed to make her lovable and very very interesting! I am loving how this series has a lot of kick ass women being strong but not bitchy! Even the head of the violent nuns is so cool, for an old nun (love her whipping out her gold pistols and blowing those sad guys away...). I almost wish I had started watching this show later this season so I don't have wait each week for a new episode. :P
I will probably blab about random stuff about the show later, but right now I wanted to mention...I had gone on a Flesh & Blood hiatus for a while, but I randomly picked up volume 8 and started reading it (from the middle, read to the end, then started at the beginning...). I had stopped at volume 4 or so, but it was pretty easy to pick things up. OMG poor Kaito! I can't imagine how awful it must be to a) be kidnapped and b) dumped overboard. Especially the dumped overboard and waiting for rescue or death part (all the while pining for Geoffrey...). -_- Man, do I sympathize with Kaito so much. He's come a long way from whiny emo boy in the beginning...
Vicente kind of annoys me but kind of makes me admire him for being so...him. Hard to explain. I want him to stop being so persistent and leave Kaito alone, but I understand he has very good motivation. It's funny how he can clearly see the deficiencies of Spanish society (being too different or too successful or too whatever can be BIG trouble, the insanity of overzealous religious types, etc) but still is so...faithful. And dedicated. I suppose in a way Geoffrey is the same, just a lot more cynical at the same time.
And oh man, the schism between Geoffrey and Nigel. ;_; I seriously need to go back and read the rest...I will probably read the series backwards, though. I have a hankering to check out volume 7 right now, and that'll probably make me want to read volume 6, and so on and so forth.
One funny bit I laughed at was Leo not realizing what the kissmarks on Kaito were, and Kaito being very very glad he didn't!
