Wolf's Rain, ep 7

[telophase]

One-eyed guy: Your beautiful and gentle hair the eyes that filled with kindliness

For those of you who don't know, Toboe is the youngest of the wolves. And it seems that Hige has a high notion of Toboe's, er, potential--

Toboe, feeling the presence of a particular someone important to the plot the wolves: What should I do? My heart is beating fast and I feel warm
Hige, with a beatific look on his face: I'm as excited as a pretty girl who's about to go into your arms.


I'm going to find a good picture of Hige that shows his comfy pants and make an icon that says something like "I'm wearing my Comfy Pants!"

I've been watching Princess Tutu and have one more episode on the next-to-last disc, before I send it in and get the last disc. It's the sort of show that I have a hard time writing about without first reading other people's impressions, because there's so much going on that I can't actually really put my thoughts together.

And if the cat ballet master really does do Marriage Special Training like he's threatened to in the last ep I watched, I fear for all of his students. XD

Mawwiage, that bwessed awwangment, that dweam wifin a dweam...

I have no idea what fairytale Neko-sensei is supposed to have fallen out of (a really cracked-out version of Puss in Boots?), but YOU WILL HAVE TO MARRY ME is the best threat ever.

XD I've just done a bit of poking about the Net for fairy tales in which cats marry human girls, but haven't found anything. Well, a bunch of references to Studio Ghibli's The Cat Returns, in which a young girl is being forced to marry a cat, which makes me wonder if it's a Japanese trope. In the European tales, if there's marriage involved it seems to be a female cat and a male human.

zebeckras tells me there's an episode of Ranma 1/2 involving a cat-demon wanting to force a girl to marry him, so I'd agree that it's probably a Japanese trope. I demand that the Japanese now write about their tropes on the easily-googled Internet!

* I hve to say that I just about lost it when Neko-sensei produced the paper bag out of nowhere, shoved his head in it, and started running around the studio. XD My cat growing up used to do that.

YES! And his attack on Ahiru's seductively bobbing hair!
