Random Musings - Touka Gettan…

I wasn’t planning on blogging anything today because I have an exam to study for, but Touka Gettan deserves a mention. It’s a well-animated show that had some great music, but the plot made little to no sense. My friend wrote up some thoughts on his own site that close closely reflect how I feel about the show, so give it a look if you’re remotely interested.

El Cazador also aired today, and while the first episode wasn’t bad (Kajiura Yuki music and the FictionJunction Yuuka ED were great), I don’t think it’s something that I’d continue watching.

Tomorrow, however, is going to be a very busy day.

    Omni, did you check out Heroic Age at all since there was no mention of it?

    In other news, Touka Getten made my brain hurt, seriously. My current theories of whats happening so far:

    1. Switches back and forth between past and present
    2. Totally random dream sequences
    3. Alternate/parallel universes
    4. It’s all a stupid story written up by the crazy blond chick
    5. Everyone’s a zombie (my personal favorite)

    As to why I made a list of this, I have no idea -_-;;;; I just spent most of the episode yelling “WTH IS GOING ON??!” 30 minutes of my life gone forever T_T…oh well, at least the opening and ending songs were nice…

    I’m glad that I wasn’t the only one who Touka Gettan confused the hell out of. The only thing that really caught my attention was the hot dog eating scene at the end of the episode, then it got confusing again.

    @GStike
    omg i was just about to do the same thing. lol my only problem is that somehow i got stuck on zoids chaotic century and we all know how long that is. i have decided never to stop in the middle of a series again cause the chain reaction caused by it would be endless (150+ animes! actually i got more but shit i had to stop counting).

  14. [][][] at 6:38 am on April 3rd, 2007

    well..let just say that alot of anime that based on eroge ..is this kind of story …
    with clueless plotline =.=;;

  15. shh227 at 6:45 am on April 3rd, 2007

    Yes I knew this quite a while. I have only seen the preview and the opeing so I do not really know much about it. I have also have not seen the Moonlight Lady too.

  16. Hinano at 7:07 am on April 3rd, 2007

    Haha I totally agree!
    I watched it too and although it was pretty
    NOTHING MADE SENSE!
    I sat there goin “WTF IS GOIN ON HERE!@?”

  17. Rasmiel at 7:17 am on April 3rd, 2007

    Many great animes make no sense at first. *coughHaruhicough*

    I rest my case.

    :D

  18. ShiNN at 7:38 am on April 3rd, 2007

    Omni, you should definetely check out Heroic Age, if you haven’t. I think it’s worth be atleast watched, if not blogged. :)

  19. Rie at 8:00 am on April 3rd, 2007

    XD I like Touka Getten and i don’t know why o . o

    Probably because i , myself make no sense as well X33 hahaha

    But definitely with great musics

  20. Lalita at 8:40 am on April 3rd, 2007

    I am confused too, is Touka a guy? a girl? or controversial? If the purpose of this show was to get my full attention… It did!
