Happy Days

Wow, I just seem to be thinking of nothing but anime these days.
I'm very happy to announce that my sister started Escaflowne, and she's going to watch it in Japanese! YES! All she had to do was listen to Kelly Sheridan as Hitomi, and she agreed with me that Sheridan makes Hitomi sound too old. (Not that Sheridan was doing a bad job, just didn't sound right. XP)
Hurray! ^_^ I'm so happy!

Now, for the .hack//Roots dub; I never thought I'd really say this, but I'm pleasantly surprised at the Roots episodes I watched. The dubbing was (dare I say it?) good; thank goodness Kuhn only had some minor scenes. Saburo has been pretty good, and even Pai and Yata have been without fault. A couple of new characters were introduced, Taihaku and Seisaku; I have to say, both are doing well in my book so far. Taihaku could even be on the same scale of excellence as Ovan, if it keeps going like this.
So yes, all in all, I'm very happy with eps 16-18. Even Haseo was a lot better; Andrew Francis seems to be better at doing the annoyed/insane/angry stuff.
I also wish to note, even though I always go on and on about the Roots dub, they at least are good at everything else; you know, matching lip movements and such. If the series keeps going on this track, the dub could end up being good for the most part.

I'm just... super happy right now. What with Robin watching Escaflowne, the well-dubbed Roots episodes, and the Otaku Legend dance, there's nothing to complain about. ^_^ My, how refreshing!
Ta for now then!

God Bless
