My Personal Views On...

The perfect KOR theme songs for-

Kasuga Kyousuke

Aoi BOIFURENDO (Blue Boyfriend)- Cruel Kyousuke, twiddling his thumbs in indecision
while wringing the hearts of two beautiful girls...

ORENJI MISUTERI (Orange Mystery)- Practically a message from Kyousuke to Madoka:
Oh baby, tell me, is it just a whim?
Tell me, tell me, angel of summer.
Oh baby, tell me, tell me, are you in love?
Tell me, tell me, you are a mystery.

Ayukawa Madoka

Kaze no Manazashi (Gaze of the Wind)-
You could go North, West, South, or East
tomorrow, you're so whimsical.
You'll always be riding the wind, unable to
tell where you're going...

Kagami no Naka no Actress (Actress in the Mirror)-
A-HA-HA
I'm the actress in the mirror.
Although I should speak frankly,
hesitation whispers in my ear
'Cause I love you.
I'm the actress in the mirror.
Every time I act, my true face
departs from me.
You've broken my heart.

Hiyama Hikaru

Kogane-iro no sakamichi (Golden Hill Road)-
That famous song. I have to mention it or risk damnation.

Furimuite MAI DA-RIN (Look back, my darling)

Tokidoki Blue (Sometimes Blue)-
What about her?
Which of us do you prefer?
You're just playing the fool;
Seems like you want to keep it a secret.
...
Good friend though you be,
my heart is sometimes blue.
Being just friends really isn't enough.
Good friend though you be,
my heart is sometimes blue.
If we're just friends,
why does my heart ache so...?
Sometimes blue.

The Different KOR endings:

The TV Series Ending: It wasn't all that good, but it wasn't as bad as I expected it to be because I heard some pretty bad things about it before I saw it therefore was expecting the worst. On the whole, the last two episodes were okay. It would be difficult to accept if you're being too picky about that Red Hat Thing, so my advice is DON'T, okay? ^_^ v

The Movie Ending: I liked it very much, even though it didn't quite connect with the TV series very well. But that is to be expected because the Movie was done in a different style with different characterizations for the characters. It does take a bit of getting used to the way those three acted as opposed to the TV series, but it's enjoyable once you do "get over it". From what I've seen and heard, the Shin (new) KOR Movie would take whole LOT more getting used to by me! On the other note, I kinda feel sorry for people who has only seen the Movie and OVAs because that's all they have to work with; That's all the KOR that they know. I can't stress enough of how important it is to watch at least a few episodes of the TV series to get a feel of what KOR is really about and how the chracters really behaved in the main story. I do understand that not everybody has the means to get fansubs though. However, AnimEigo is putting out the entire KOR TV series if enough people preorder it!

The Manga Ending: Don't ask me about the manga, 'cus I've only read one volume of it! It's really good, Ayukawa is so cute, that's all I have to say about the Manga.(From what I've read from places, I think the manga ending is probably better than both the TV and the Movie ending)

What about the OVAs?

I do like the OVAs, and the animation quality is way, way higher than the TV series. However, I do detect a slight loss of the quirkiness in the TV series. It misses some of the elements that made the TV series touching and funny. Just look at the tender moments in the series between Madoka and Kyousuke. They are so rare that you'd treasure every single one of them. And then there's Hikaru. Hehe. She's FUNNY. There's an episode where she thought Kyousuke wanted to have sex with her on the nurse's bed. She raced out, washed her mouth out, gourgled, untill her teeth gave off a sparkle (complete with sound effect!) and then sprayed a big dose of breath freshener into her mouth before going into the room again. hahahahaha that was HILARIOUS!!! you don't get too much of that in the OVAs. But again, I liked the OVA animation- really high in quality.

Anything else?

Yeah, plenty! When I think up of coherent ways of saying it I'll put it up!

Hey, why no comments about Madoka?

Do you REALLY want to read 10 pages of ramblings about how great she is?

Where did you get those awesome MIDI music that you used in your commentaries?

Bow down to Mr. Zap.
