Angst and Giggles...All I'm Missing Is the Cuddling!

[amarissia]

This week in wishful-Zangeal-thinking, our musical selections come courtesy of ladygunblade, who recommended them to me!

And in zaniness, I just finished what I'm pretty sure is season one of Ouran High School Host Club. Guess what the nice DVD people included with it? Bloopers! In English, yes, but this anime actually has a decent English dub cast, which is...bizarrely rare.

And to finish on a silly (Death) Note, tell me Near doesn't make a weirdly good Stewie from Family Guy.

Ooh! Shiny AMV talent!

Anytime you get Luci Christian (Hunny) in a booth, she's probably going to make an offhand yaoi joke. I love that lady. I should find the commentary where she and Chris Patton insinuate that Fakir and Mytho in Princess Tutu are totally banging each other (or, more like, Fakir is banging Mytho).

It's kind of interesting when you think about it, because Vic Mignogna (Tamaki) is vaguely homophobic. I would never have expected him to agree to do a voice in Ouran. Though, he is very talented and I love him dearly for the life he gives his characters.

ADV and FUNimation have awesome VAs, I love them all and they all do amazing work bringing anime to an American audience. If you liked the English cast for Ouran, you'd probably enjoy DNAngel in English too, since it's pretty much the same group of people.

Oh goodness. I hate english dubs, but the Ouran bloopers nearly made me pee I was laughing so hard.

Who's the band in the first one? I've never heard that cover of 'Running Up That Hill' before. I used to be a big Kate Bush fan and I never thought that anybody would be able to do justice to her (rather odd) style. But those guys were good. It was haunting and layered... and it suited the video (which made me teary-eyed).

I may have to look up that Ouren High School Host Club. It looks like it could be funny. BTW: the voice for one of them (tall, blonde) isn't that the same guy who did Edward Elrich in FMA?

:D Hurray for Ouran. I was just catching up on the manga last night. I was laughing all over the place. :)

[ladygunblade.livejournal.com]

The band is Placebo :)

Still in love with those AMVs ♥

And you're right, those English dubs aren't half bad! Though the 'mademoiselle' at 2:04 in the first one made me twitch a little. Not that my French pronunciation is that good, but still.

[etrix.livejournal.com]

Thank you.

Loved the Zangeal video--it's a good thing for my productivity that YouTube is blocked at work, otherwise I'd be cruising the intertubes for FFVII videos all darn day.

I was doing my March Madness brackets, and every time I saw Gonzaga listed I read it as Gongaga...does Zack know his hometown is ranked number 10 in the nation in basketball? :D

[silverin-lo.livejournal.com]

Oooooh, the Zangeal videos are beautiful and so sad... I´m in serious need of some Choir fun debate here. ::angst angst:: Where is everyone... hello? ;o)

[tofusama.livejournal.com]

Yeah, its the same guy, Vic Mignogna does both voices.

[amarissia.livejournal.com]

Yes, Captain. CHOIR!

Zack: "I told you...I'm up, I'm up...five more minutes..." *snuggles against Angeal*
Angeal: *smiles*
Me: "Somebody was up late forcing his mentor to play video games with him." :) "Cloud is sleepy too. He was out with Ryu-chan. I heard the crashing from my bedroom."
Cloud: *crawls off of Sephy's lap, peers through portal* "Hi, Silverin! I was playing on the roof of ShinRa headquarters last night, and guess what Ryu-chan did? He jumped off the electrical tower, and it was really high up, but he landed on me, so it was okay." *giggles*
Me: "Things are going well with Cloud's new buddy, even though their friendship requires Sephy to follow them and deal with the damage they cause. ZACK! Wake up!"
Zack: "You don't write this time of day. If you're gonna be doing naughty things with me later, I need to rest first, you..." *grumbles unpleasantries*

Sorry, they're being difficult. And I even brought them croissants!

[amarissia.livejournal.com]

Zack: "Well, of course! Gongaga is number one! WOO! Uh, what's basketball?"

:)

Actually, I watched Ouran in Japanese; the bloopers were only available in English. Dubbed anime freaks me out, though I really was surprised how inoffensive the Ouran dubbers were. Still, I can't see myself ever choosing to watch an anime in English. I can't even do it with Advent Children anymore. :)

Homophobic? A homophobe agreed to do a voice in Ouran? That's...bizarre. And...progress, maybe? *is puzzled* Normally I would feel obligated to smite the guy, but a good English dubber is so damn rare...

That reminds me...my favorite Ouran moment so far has to be the fourth-wall-smashing one where little Kirimi points at the club and yells things like "Debauchery! Twincest!" I love that kid. :)

[robonun.livejournal.com]

Oh Zack, you don't know what basketball is? Holy crap, I knew the Choir lived in Amarissia's closet but I didn't realize her closet was under a ROCK. We have to correct this situation immediately or your man-card is gonna get revoked. Okay, we need chips, salsa, bean dip, fizzy beverages (alcoholic or non, your choice) and a widescreen TV with access to ESPN, stat. Get Cloud over here too, I bet he's equally deprived. Thank Gaia I caught this in time. Genesis! Put the albino down and come help me shift the couch! Jayzus, next you'll be telling me you've never heard of baseball either.

[amarissia.livejournal.com]

Zack: "I know about fizzy beverages, at least. Angeal won't let me have the alcoholic kind." *pout*
Me: "Ack, don't make them watch sports, I'll explain! Zacky, basketball is that thing my little sister watches and rants about when the Lakers don't win."
Zack: "Oh, that. Eh, it looks boring. They should play with a ball of fire or something dangerous, I could get into that."
Cloud: "Ooh, are we going somewhere, Zack? Let's go!"
Me: "Hey! Well...just for a little while. I need you guys back here tonight for Kyo Kara Maou." *lowers voice* "And new-fic rehearsal."
Genesis: "Maybe I'll go take a peek too. And for your information, I no longer have sexual designs on the albino. I'm thinking I'll adopt him instead."

Which is somehow creepier.

[robonun.livejournal.com]

*sigh* No, Zack, the intersection of high explosives and sports is called NASCAR. There are some things even I won't watch, and that's one of them. It makes for a dull afternoon interspersed with the occasional car wreck and a medivac if you're lucky. I suppose you guys can save the snacks for Kyo Kara Maou.

Waaaait, you're not sending them over here, are you? No way is this place Cloud- and Zack-proof. Between the superglue, the model paint and the Guinness they'll go home higher than a kite and three shades of blue, and then Sephy will come looking for me and I can kiss my security deposit and two square blocks goodbye.

*Oohs at the AMVs* I'm rising to know who made the second AMV, it was well made and I loved the song choices.
The best line in that thing?: "What do you want Angeal?" World domination." "That's not funny man!".

I just break down laughing whenever I hear that part! And I can actually imagine Angeal trying to take over the world... But for a good reason of course! *snickers*

I started laughing when I finished the Ouran bloopers! OMG how I love Tamaki's voice! And Haruhi's voice actor is wonderful though I started to wonder why she kept on saying she needed to learn how to read.

*snickering again* Aaaw man Near, your reputation was just shot down and beaten on with that AMV! Lol, Seph you seriously need to let them open the KKM portal, I wanna tell Yuri to hurry up and just goddamn lock Yuri and Wolfram in a lovehotel for a week or two to show YES you ARE gay for your fiance, YES you are an idiot sometimes Yuri, and just have the wedding already and skip away to your steamy honeymoon with Wolfram! Sheesh, you are so much trouble!

Reno: You're the one to talk, yo! You won't admit that you want to huggle Sephiroth like a plushie!

Me: Aaaaaw, but I don't Seph to be afraid if me, stop bein mean Red!

Reno: Hypocrite! You're mean as well!

Me: Ok that I can't refuse not to admit, but I've known I'm a hypocrite for a while now Red. And go and pull pranks with Zack now, I wanna glomp loud and Ryuichi together. *huggles Cloud and Ryuichi*

First, i love your fanfiction =3
Second *jumps on Sephy* xD
Third, i don't know if you watch this videos, there are a lot, but i leave my favs to you, i think you're going to like them (sorry if they are a lot, and most of them are 'MAD' vids, so if you don't like it....delete this comment??)

Sorry guys and sorry Amarissia if i bothered you u_u!!!! Seph please don't kill me!! >____

[tenxxxryuko.livejournal.com]

Oooooh, gotta love the first one! I mean it's everyone dancing to the Mickey Song! Hi, nice to meet you new one! I am another newbie so please treat me kindly! And don't worry, I'm quite sure Seph doesn't mind hugs. But don't take Cloud and Zack for too long, then he gets cranky! Lol ^^ The Choir is an awful lot of fun, but if you introduce any cute characters, as in uke cute, Genesis will try multiple times to molest him. *indicates L from Death Note* L had to start locking the portal hole and stay nicely locked in a bathroom for a while now. Poor L.

Oh, and Cloud and Ryuichi from Gravitation, the anime/manga with the singing pink haired kid and his blond, cold , writer lover- he's male of course-, causes mayhem, adorable mayhem though!, and if buildings from Midgar seem to magically fall apart, it's ok, Cloud and Ryuichi were playing a game. Lotsa fun with this Choir, though they don't get singing done, *snickers*

[silverin-lo.livejournal.com]

THANK YOU! ;oD

::squeezes and pats Cloud - I remember, very briefly:: "Cloud, wear a helmet while playing with Ryu-chan, ok? It´s maybe safer that way... Oh, go for his collection of crayons next time and make Shinra surroundings shiny. Maybe Seph will help you. Or Gengen. I bet he can make some nice designs..."

Awwwww, sweet Zacky is snuggle-bunny... I´m so happy for him and Angeal ::hearts::

[katsumikg.livejournal.com]

Hi!! ^_^ nice to meet you too! I'm not so sure about Sephy liking hugs, i'm sure he likes Cloud huging him, but a crazy yaoi-loving Sephiroth fangirl...i'm not that sure x3
I read most of The Choir's chat, jajaja! they're a lot of fun! I must remember not to indroduce ukes to Genesis...though, there is one little uke named Gilbert who reminds me of him...oops!! forget about that xD!!

ps: i like your Reno pic! ^___^

[tenxxxryuko.livejournal.com]

Hello to you too! I'm positive Seph won't mind a hug, but we have to ask Amarissia on that one. But if I can imagine Seph in a Lolita dress dancing to the can-can and not die from Masumune then I'm pretty sure he won't kill you!

Reno:...You imagine the Silver General in ShinRa in what?!

Me: Oh hush Red! Besides she flattered you didn't she? Show some manners!

Reno: *grumbles* Meanie! But thank you kasumikg!

Me: Sheesh, you and Tseng-love are so hard to handle sometimes! But thank you kasumikg! Even though we drive each other butters I love Reno to bits! And Tseng-love and Vincent! Gotta love the Turks! ^^

As promised here's the SephirothxAngeal. ... Though it turned out more AngealxSephiroth. Bah! http://s2.photobucket.com/albums/y39/SaharaDesR/SephAngeal/

[amarissia.livejournal.com]

*giggles evilly and insanely* Please, please send these to Square Enix so they know the kind of thing we want!

Genesis: "Ooh, I must have my own copies of these..."

(Note: I accidentally first responded to this under my non-yaoi name. Oops. If you saw, keep it secret, 'kay? :))

[amarissia.livejournal.com]

Sephy: "...Lolita dress?" *eyes narrow*

Uh, you may want to start running now. :)
