Post bilingüe porque yo lo valgo
Or, in english because I can:
I FINALLY started to watch Princess Tutu. Youtube was my only option, and they had only up to episode 11. Now I watch the rest at a site called Veoh or something.
I just finished episode 13, spoil me and die.
I wish I could make a better analysis of the series, the meta, and stuff. Sadly, I can't remember every detail and re-watching it's not a possibility. You know why.
It was... METATASTIC (yeah, I just created that word). And I LOVE (most of) the characters.
I loved how they handled the fairy-tales themes, narrative and archetypes. I LOVE how "Ahiru is only a duck, Fakir is only a human, and Rue is...." I can't remember what Rue was, but she was awesome anyway.
The problem is I can't stand Mytho. He wouldn't have been so bad by himself (he has the personality of an amoeba and I know it's deliberate), but it annoys the hell out of me how everyone on the show is so fucking nuts for him. And they fight, torture themselves, suffer emotionally in the worse ways, only for him. Because Ahiru, Fakir and Rue are so awesome, I wish they would forget about Mytho and... live happily ever after in a polyamory way.
Of course it's just a pet peeve of mine. After all, he is the prince. Who has to be saved. Which is good, I think.
I love how Ahiru is the ultimate heroine, and Fakir has to sacrifice himself to make her the hero because he can't even touch Rue (another woman). And we have a final match in which stereotypical feminine abilities (dancing) decide how things go and not masculine ones (brute force) - of course, it's because Mytho had to choose; but let's just forget about that. Seriously, I was so in love with the series at that point.
Bu then it came the happy 'ending' that wasn't supposed to happen. Thank God I know the series continues, I would be so mad otherwise.
It annoyed me how Mytho just choose, how Ahiru and him were supposedly happy. How Fakir ended there, hurt and alone; and Rue was devastated and hating herself again. I hope they subvert all this. I HOPE.
Another thing I didn't quite like was the dichotomy of white-pureness-good/black-sexuality-bad of Tutu/Kraehe. Kraehe was obviously evil and sexualized, when Rue was neither. But I'm sure things would go better for Rue because they gave her character development. They won't leave it all in nothing when they showed she developed feelings for Ahiru.
Anyway, overall, I'm excited for this. I'm silly in love with Fakir, btw (Ahiru and him are such a wonderful pair, even in they don't end like that).
You know, don't spoil me. About anything.
Isn't this the most awesome thing ever?
Parte en español:
Sabés, Mako? Adoré como Nietzsche deconstruyó el cristianismo y todo su dogma, y como pone en evidencia la corrupción y todos los problemas detrás de la moral de éste. Pero por Dios, no puedo finalizar el puto libro porque DETESTO con todo corazón los últimos capítulos en los que habla de la 'aristocracia', de su amor hacia las jerarquías y del 'mito de la igualdad de derechos'. Su esencialismo de 'lo viril, lo bueno' en comparación con lo 'femenino, lo malo'... y sí. Que hay antisemitismo, lo hay. Bastante esencialista se lo lee a Nietzsche en partes.
Me duele la cabeza espctacularme, la música esa me destrozó,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
danly. ;_;
ETA: TENGO SHONEN MAGAZINE. La compré en una convención acá (bah, se la compré a Danly que la compró en la convención), es la parte de la pelea de Kuro y Fay contra Kiishimu en Koryo. Con el beso (que a mi me encanta por cierto :S). Y en japonés! Yaaay!

RIKA!
..... Y... bueno. Por qué Dios es Light? Y muere? POR DIOS QUE NIETZSCHE NO HABLABA DEL ESTADO DE LA MORAL DE LA ÉPOCA, HABLABA DE LIGHT. (Nietzsche era... como es que se llamaba este loco? Mikami?)
no subject
Jaja, por qué Rika? XD
Pero por supuesto que Dios= Light, y Nietzsche= Mikami. DUH!
Aunque de cierta forma es verdad... eso de que el hombre se convierte en dios para justificar acciones que no le están permitidas a los humanos.
Mi hermano acaba de llegar y... adivina qué? Al final REGALABAN las revistas! AFDHYTRHGVBGVFDHGH. Me trajo un número de Shonen Jump (con el primer capítulo de Hikaru no Go!) y otro de Shonen Magazine con un capítulo de Tsubasa (aunque él no sabía que traía Tsubasa, jaja).
no subject
Es que... te imaginas a Rika volando por los aires? Rika que no puede con la luz de un foco! XDD (mandale besos cuando le veas ^^; Yo no dije nada! <.< >.>)
Pues sí... o sea que todo lo que Nietzsche dice contra la religión es para disimular que anda con una death note por ahí pues...
.......... Te juro que me estafaron grande. El muchacho ese no fue capaz de decirme nada mientras yo buscaba entre sus revistas! ¬¬;
no subject
Jaja, cuidado con Rika, que ella se mete a bosques y anda por lugares salvajes con total facilidad XD
Es que no sabías que todos los filosofos son otakus? Es un requisito!
Al parecer al final (como a la medianoche) decidieron regalar las revistas ¬¬ Obviamente todos saltaron a agarrar las que podían. Mi hermano trajo varias, casi todas Shonen Jump, pero (sin querer) trajo una Shonen Magazine, jeje.
no subject
....... Por dios, que injusticia. Había otra de Koryo que dije que iba a comprar si no encontraba algo mejor. ;_;
no subject
Jaja, yo le reté a mi hermano por no traer más Shonen Magazine, pero él me dijo que no sabía que esa revista tenía capítulos de Tsubasa (además ya me trajo una con Hikago, no puedo enojarme mucho).

Ah bue, feliz de vos! *cara de víctima*
