5D's 41 thoughts
Jan. 7th, 2009 03:55 pmArgh, this episode was a disappointment. Bad in both story and animation. I had to wait two weeks for this episode? O.o
Even worse, my internet fries out last night. It came back this morning, but I only had enough time to watch the episode before I had to leave. And when I got back in afternoon after running errands all morning it blows out again for about 30 minutes. Fuck you 50 mph winds, fuck you.
I feel so bad for Aki, she had a fucked up past with a abusive father and her only friend died in front of her. Its so sad. It almost reminds me of Lucy's past from Elfen Lied except toned way down and a lot less graphic. And replace psychic powers with invisible arms XD
The animation was also sucky, almost as bad as 16 was(and its also an Aki ep >_0
But even though I feel really bad for her, I find it hard to like her now. She has the poorest quality episodes, very little character development for her, she has the maturity of a 12 year old, and she cries at the drop of a hat. I liked her at first because finally we had gotten a female character who was strong, important to the plot, killed people and had the potential to be awesome.
But on the flip side, Martha is a great character nevertheless. I love her no nonsense personality and that she's the only mother figure in 5D's who cares for her (adopted) son. And I loved her teasing him and ear pulling XD
Aki's father is an ass, who misses out on their daughter's birthday and bitchslaps them? An ass thats who.
Also, 43's summary makes me wanna punch somebody, more of this forced YxA DNW ><. Seriously if theres anybody Yusei needs to talk to the night before facing the DS its either Jack or Godwin. Jack more likely since the two haven't spoken much since the end of the Fortune Cup. I miss it when half of the show was their relationship or something XD.
EDIT: Nevermind, 43's summary may be false after all, I hope so...

on 2009-01-07 10:47 pm (UTC)As for the animation she does always have the worst, but at least the next episode looks pretty decent; about time! XD
And as a faithshipper I really shouldn't talk; but you're looking for character developement and Yuusei's gotta magical character-altering powers! XD Look on the bright side 83
Besides, it's shonen; the chances of them actually pairing, despite any heavey hints, is low XD
I wuved the episode, but I'm looking forward to the next one more :D

True, I do expect her to some character development soon I hope..
And yes but YGO still has its share of canon pairings too.
