Viewfinder NT5: Feilong wins at... um, I'm not sure what the best sport metaphor is, to be hon-- O I KNOW TENNIS. LET'S USE TENNIS. Feilong wins the game but it's only halfway through the set, possibly Asami's not playing with his dominant hand, and in any case there haven't been any GRAVITATIONAL WHIRLPOOL MOVES OF DOOM so really at this point it's up in the air. That is, Takaba's up in the air. He's the ball.

Memo to Neil Gaiman: please to stop not stop stop not stop stop with the saabisu shots, it would be rather tragic if a certain fan of yours within my personal acquaintance reduced herself to a charcoal briquet. *surreptitiously saves saabisu shot anyway*

what? where? what?

Check the lj comm, the links are going like hotcakes but there are people uling. XD

(My best guess is that you'll be 50% pleased. XD)

[sesame-seed.livejournal.com]

Okay, I'm clinging to hope and assuming that the GOOD 50% is somewhere in the scans, which I haven't seen yet, and not in the translation, which I've read and which, quite frankly, makes me despair of Feilong ever getting out of this with a whole skin.

By the pricking of my thumbs, he's going DOWN, and not in a good way, I am afear'd -- though thankfully not as bad as Mizuki against Fuji. Kirihara against Yukimura? Kirihara against Sanada, possibly.

The victory, it just ain't a-gonna happen.

Dude, what good is it if he wins anyway? XD You're assuming Yamane actually has any kind of interest in parting Feilong from his pretty skin, which I doubt she does. She just needs to have him run around and create Conflict, because otherwise it would degenerate into a sexfest. I mean, not that there's anything wrong with that.

OH GOD HOW DID I MISS THOSE GAIMAN PHOTOS?

Damn. Damn damn damn. I need to make an LJ icon in proper geeky response to channel vast LOFF.

GIP.

Someone posted scans of NT 5 and a translation on the community this evening.

I'd be really interested to see what kind of moves of doom they can call up. XD It'll probably involve martial arts and some gun katas, like in Equilibrium. XD

[petronia.livejournal.com]

Oh gawd, the gun katas. XD

(Placeholder for thought, remind me to talk about this somewhere else: why on earth is there this assumption that Feilong fans would be consternated at the revelation that he's kind of unbalanced and psychotic? XD Firstly it's not much of a shocker, secondly... is it just my Schwarz fandom making me blasé? XD;;)

[javelle.livejournal.com]

Actually, most of the consternation came from people who were fans of other characters, from my limited exposure, and quite possibly wrong assumptions. I think that Feilong fans knew that he was unbalanced, but maybe was hoping that he wasn't going to be quite so psychotic? ^^;

they really need to stop pulling Kiriharas on each other. >:O

[petronia.livejournal.com]

I see my metaphor is a hit. :D!

Really, it's more fun if you voice their characters in catty teenaged valley-girl speak and it would make a lot more sense too!

TAKABA REALLY IS SUCH AN IDIOT. I almost feel bad for Asami having to BAIL HIM OUT ALL THE TIME. >:O

[petronia.livejournal.com]

I think the smartest thing he said all chapter was "OMG what are you doing, you have a HOLE in your side!"

[helvetius.livejournal.com]

But he is SHO PWETTY!

*SPARKLES LIKE A RABID FANGIRL*
