Kaleido Star!!!

::SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE::

Ooo, Kaleido Star sugoi desu!!! ^____________________________^

Well, well, well ~ I'm SO glad that lithele, ladylore, and I marathoned through the second season of Kaleido Star last night!!! It was just absolutely incredible!! What's funny is that after the first couple of episodes I was kinda like, eh, this isn't as great as they told me (I was the only person seeing it for the first time). It didn't seem to have much flair, it was kinda depressing, and the characters were seriously grating on my nerves. Then, somewhere along the line, it suddenly got cool again. And when it did, WOW, did it ever get cool!!!! When I finally finished around noon (ladylore left for the summer, and lithele had to meet her dad and start packing), I was bawling in a way I haven't been since the first time I watched Fruits Basket. Stellvia, which we also watched this past week, came close to making me cry that much, but didn't quite succeed, beautiful as it was. Watching the ending of Kaleido Star though... just wow. Wow. SO COOL!!!

... ::goes off to download her own copy of it and find icons and maybe write something::

Edit: And even though she won't see this, a very happy birthday to ladylore!!!

I saw a bit of that. It was good. ^_^ Never saw the rest though. Saw what I did at a con.

It's just... amazing! Seriously, seriously amazing. Good enough that I'm cleaning my hard drive to make enough space for the download. ^.^;;; ::recommends you watch it:: ^.^;;;

First or the second? I never finished the first one. XD

Hmmm... Well, the first season is definitely really awesome, but the second season (specifically, the second half of the second season) is beyond phenomenal. Actually, I'd say on the whole that the second halves of both seasons are a lot better than the first halves. (In the first season, there's suddenly a lot more plot than just Sora wanting to be a Kaleido Star; in the second... well, a lot happens, and I wouldn't want to spoil it. ^.^;;; ) But if you're short on time, I'd say just watch the second season. The first two episodes of the second season recap all of season one (how well, I don't know - we skipped them ^^;;;), so you wouldn't be missing too too much, and the second season is just better. ^.^;;;

KH on the brain?

Hm....well, I have no idea where I'd get either...*hint hint*

Actually, no ~ not KH on the brain; the protagonist in Kaleido Star is named Sora, too. ^.^;;; Actually, I'm currently supposed to be writing a Sora meets Sora fic for ladylore. ^.^;;;;

Anyways, I'm working on getting it myself at the moment, but there seems to be a torrent here for the whole series and one of the OVAs. (It ends at 51 episodes.)

Well THAT's amusing!

And thank you. ^.^

I agree.

And any time! ^_^
