real update coming Saturday?
Jan. 18th, 2008 01:21Including, but not limited to:
- change of major
- my official leave from fansubbing
- reflections on chatty online forums
- a quick survey of anime I watched over break
- life?
Before then, though, I had a question: does anyone know whether there are soft subs for Ichi Rittoru no Namida available? I'm downloading the raws from d-addicts, and I'm thinking that I'll probably need subtitles in order to understand everything and bawl appropriately. If not, I'll just go it without subtitles (I'm getting pretty good at understanding Japanese, and I've been watching random things without subtitles for a while now), but I really want to appreciate this series as much as possible, since apparently it's good and people cry when they watch it. You know.
Also, isn't AsuKira adorable? I don't even ship them... I just really appreciate their friendship. They'd be an interesting pair, I'm sure (God knows they've been shipped to high hell), but their camaraderie and resolve and faith in each other is really touching or something, and it just doesn't translate into a relationship beyond friendship/brotherhood for me. I'm sure it helps that their female counterparts are both extremely strong, sensible, likeable women (though Cagalli got on my nerves during GSD a little (a lot)... more on that on Saturday!).
Oh, and one more thing: Facebook me, because I need more people to stalk (and so do you).

Date: 2008-01-19 18:55 (UTC)Although I love a good cry, I've totally avoided 1 Litre of Tears as it would probably charge me 1 (thousand) litres of tears. I dunno if I could deal with that. I'd probably max out my crying allowance for the year. Not cool considering I haven't seen Atonement yet.
Good luck in the hunt for softsubs, though. =]
