@Kitsune:
Darn, FUNi's only got Episode 1-4… Might as well take a teaser then for now.
1-4 is a good start. it'll be enough to tell you if you like the series or not. Like most things, it gets better as it goes along and the cast expands, but those first four are a pretty good sample, i know when I got through them, I had to go get the next tape immediatley.
Really you'll probably know in the first five minutes.
Man. I got it back in the day on TAPE, and had to wait between episodes coming out. That was brutal. Especially on cliffhangers.
@Thousand:
Oh wait, it's THAT kind of random? Oh wow, well that changes everything. I'll have to check it out then.
I like that I give three long diatribes full of why its my favorite anime ever and that does nothing, then Darkstorm says a sentence and that convinces you.
Oh yeah, I also have ALL the soundtracks. Like, 15 of the buggers.
Anyway, what was wrong with season four?:/
They made it like 13 years after they made the first 3 and had no idea what they were doing. It was a fun romp revisiting the characters with shiny new animation, but basically pointless and without direction that just rehashed villains from earlier seasons and they didn't really seem to have any plan when they made it.
@Thousand:
And what the heck is up with all these colored images of Asuna giving her different colored eyes?
She has two different colored eyes. You can see it in all the color art and anime. its a thing that shows mystical connection, its an ingrained part of japanese folklore.
Yuna from FFX had that too.
