hontou ni Stripey Insists Sisters Cry Oniichan Now

February Loot

Aaah, sweet loot. Pride of place is the Lunamaria Hawke pencil board which Stripey mailed to me just in time for the Big Three-Oh. Thanks again, bro!

The rest, accumulated over a period of seven weeks, is the complete Noir DVD set. Am really enjoying the write-ups that accompany it and the sheer dedication of the production process helps to explain why this is one of my favourite classics. The only fly in the ointment was the cutting of that the scene where the little children were shown to be carrying arms in the Soldats village. While understandable, it really neutered the horror and absurdity of the whole idea of Soldats and their proto-Hobbesian conception of human nature. Watching this series a second time, Kirika's Letter was just dripping with raw desire and longing which Mireille obviously understood...
