Of course, it had to be mother. Of course, she had to shopping. Of course, she has to be a woman that seemingly cares more about her looks than anything else. Mothers who are singles are not uncommon in the Western world nowadays but it's still questionable why they had to pick this example. It's almost as if they want to discourage women from raising their children alone. In fact most women do not make this decision. Their boyfriends runs away or even dies or is an alcoholic, they are rarely to blame. The only real-life cases similar to this I've heard of either involved just the father or both parents. Really, no sensible person would blame the mother during that situation. There's plenty of time to discuss that afterwards. After all she might get a nervous break-down (or heart attack in the worst case) which certainly wouldn't help the situation. I'm almost afraid though the reaction of the officer who felt the need to scold her wasn't all too unrealistic for Japan.

I've never made it through a full season previously, except the Live Action version. The bet was that I'd lose interest on episode 6. Hah. I was optimistic. After the snake episode, which I couldn't watch at all, a moralistic tale centering around a baby and ideal motherhood killed the series for me faster than any other season. What happened to idiotic, meaningless chases around the city that turned out to be practical jokes and plots that revolve around about Halloween? YUAFT doesn't really have what it takes to send a "message." It's like "Friends" doing an AIDS epiosde. Shame too, because a stupid piece of fluff with lots of car chases, YUA was reasonably fun. I'll stick with Gunsmith Cats Burst, which hasn't lost one iota of the original's absurdity. :-) Cheers, Erica Hungry for Yuri?
