the post where I babble a lot.

[zarahjoyce]

Spent most of last night reading Shinkenger's Crowning Moments of Awesome TV Tropes page and then watching the episodes where said crowning moments of awesome occurred. I realized that I missed like several of Shinkenger's episodes towards the latter part of its arc and I'm so glad I rediscovered them because they are awesome. Oh Shinkenger, how much do I love thee let me count the ways. This may or may not be related to my Jii application ffff I'm nervous for Friday agggggggh I really should work on that again.

Which brings me to Goseiger. I dropped this series entirely and only watched episodes which are about Moune, but I am rediscovering that this show is quirky and charming in its own special way. This is most probably because I love, love, love the epic brother-sister romancerelationship between Agri and Moune, and I am a sucker for sibling interactions (see GoGoV, Fiveman, and Magiranger). Also, because while I was mostly annoyed at Alata and Eri at the beginning of the series, I quickly found out that they are just too adorable for words. Epic 35, I blame you for this. And Hyde! Well, I've always loved Hyde, so :D :D :D

ALSO! Amy Farrah Fowler's going to a regular character for this season! I am pleased about this. Then again, I feel like there's only so few people who actually likes her, and that makes me sad. Oh TBBT fandom, why the hate for Amy Farrah Fowler?

AGRI AND MOUNE ARE THE BEST. <3 Though I do love all the other Goseigers too.

[zarahjoyce.livejournal.com]

THEY TOTALLY ARE! I just love their dynamic and how they interact with each other as well as the other Goseigers. And also playing with your Agri = amazing ♥ ONIIIIIIICHAN!

[megthelegend.livejournal.com]

Hahahaha, thank you. <3 Likewise, believe me! I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I'M DOING. Your Moune is so delightfully bratty and eager to *win*.

[zarahjoyce.livejournal.com]

I REFUSE TO BELIEVE THIS, MEG. I am going to capslock forever over your Agri. And fffffff thank you! Most of the time I really don't know how to write her, but after re-watching the series I'm glad she's a bit on track :P

[yamapirocks27.livejournal.com]

That was soo much fun reading all taht old awesomeness of Shinkenger, I watched Goseiger only when its got Agri and Moune, but i really can't wait for the Vs now the story has been revealed sooo excited !!!

[terrierlee.livejournal.com]

The Goseigers are all love D: I don't get why they don't get any love from the fandom. GoseiKnight is such a moe cat truck D:

[zarahjoyce.livejournal.com]

Haha! January can't come soon enough :D

[zarahjoyce.livejournal.com]

To be honest I really wasn't that interested in it on its first few months of airing, but now? I'm downloading all the subbed episodes I can get my hands on. Also yes, GoseiKnight is ♥.

She takes away from all the Penny/Sheldon shippers true love. ...though I don't know why anyone thinks Sheldon would ever go for Penny. If he even liked the idea of sex. It makes no sense, but who expects sense from fandom? ...or maybe it takes away from the Leonard/Sheldon shippers. Are there any Leonard/Sheldon shippers? You'd think there would be. They'd hate female romantic interests who got in the way. ...it's possible I'm a bit jaded.

I don't know, my only problem with the relationship would have been that I feel Sheldon is extremely asexual, but they've managed to keep him perfectly IC in his completely sexless relationship, so instead I enjoy having a girl nerd on the show.

[3circledsun.livejournal.com]

nice

[zarahjoyce.livejournal.com]

I think there are a lot of Leonard/Sheldon shippers? Knowing fandom, there's bound to be shippers of all shapes, sizes, and any combination of characters. I don't know, while I'm very happy with Shamy, I see them more as colleagues who just happened to spend time together and want to have a child through scientific means (although my god someone think of their child!). I don't ship them in the ohmygodtwuwuvvv!!!11! kind of way, but I still like seeing them together and ship them in a very odd, special kind of way.

[zarahjoyce.livejournal.com]

:D!

[museofspeed.livejournal.com]

Ahahaha Shamy. I forgot the name of it. Yes, it's wonderful. But yeah, if it had been omgtwuwuv, it would be wrong. I think that scene where Sheldon says, "That's the most pragmatic thing anyone's ever said to me!" pretty much sums it up. They're... awesome together in a very practical, nonsexual, clean way.

[zarahjoyce.livejournal.com]

Which is where I took her username from! I'll forever be annoyed that offthetable is already taken :\

But yeah. I can't imagine Sheldon being a boyfriend, and him hugging Penny is probably the extent of his willingness to touch anyone ever. And Sheldon/Amy is actually a nice break from the very blatant, heavily sex-reliant relationships that prevail over 99.99% of couples in all fandoms.

(Edited. I guess there was some error, sorry -_-)

Oh, are you RP-ing Moune? Are you RP-ing Hyde, as well?

WHERE HAVE I BEEN ALL THIS TIME??? (is it at sentai_gakuen? Or a new comm.?)

Goseiger totally needs more love from fandom. Maybe it doesn't have a strong definitive plot like some other series, but like you said, it has its own charms. They're just not that obvious. Sometimes marathons help, hehe.

I just read your Goseiger fic. I want to leave a proper comment later, but I want to say ahead of time that I LOVE IT!!! Thank you SO much! You have no idea how much you made my day with your story XD So thank you, thank you, thank you!

[zarahjoyce.livejournal.com]

I'm playing Moune over at dear_mun sometimes (like this (http://community.livejournal.com/dear_mun/30166035.html)) but not in an actual game, yet. I'm hoping I'd be able to app her in the future somewhere, though!

YES, I agree. I think I appreciated Goseiger more when I have a ton of episodes to watch and was marathoning like an insane woman. I spent like three days downloading every episode I could and it was just lovely all in all. Some shows are just like that, I think :D

And you've very welcome! I loved writing it. All I can say is give me more prompts because this show needs to have a ton of fics!

[etapa.livejournal.com]

Haha, let me know when you do. I'd love to see some Moune action. Even better if everyone else will be there. And if I'm lucky (both time and muse), I might even consider playing Hyde. He's definitely a character I wouldn't mind RP-ing.

Gosei is love. Gosei needs more love from fans. I can't believe it's almost nearing the end! Don't go---!!! *weeps* (heh, I act this way for pretty much all Sentai. Even if I'm watching an already completed one)

I just left a comment. I'm so glad you loved writing it. And you said it, so more prompts might come up later. Yes, it needs more fics! Tons of them! XD

[zarahjoyce.livejournal.com]

ADSFHJH WHERE IS THAT PIC IN YOUR ICON FROM I MUST KNOW.

Also, I'd love to play with your Hyde! And now I'm sad that Goseiger is ending. Sob, why did my appreciation of it come so late :(

[etapa.livejournal.com]

Haha, the picture is a behind-the-scenes moment, those that Toei likes to post after an episode airs. The three of them looked so adorable on it, I HAD to grab it and make an icon. And hehe, ended up cropping for two.

(Agri, I do love you, you know that, right? I wouldn't carry a strap of you with me if I didn't... TOT)

http://www.toei.co.jp/tv/gosei/story/1193760_1703.html

Hopefully one day! Hyde for me was love at first sight *cough* I'd love to see your Moune tease, bicker with, and look after Hyde (epics 13, 31 and 40 come to mind for the latter, hehe. Very tiny moments, but still sweet enough).

Hey, better late than never. And on a brighter side, late appreciations allow us to not wait too long for what comes next ;)

[zarahjoyce.livejournal.com]

I do remember the small Hyde/Moune moments in ep 13 and 40, but 31? Hmmmm I suppose it's time to download that ep and hunt for that moment!

Hey, better late than never. And on a brighter side, late appreciations allow us to not wait too long for what comes next ;)

Plus there are tons of eps to watch and obsess over, haha!

[etapa.livejournal.com]

Oh, you haven't seen it yet? I won't spoil you then :P

Yes, very true! Look at me obsessing over every single episode just so I can catch those tiny Hyde/Moune moments, whatever type they might be, hee! One of these days I'm SO making a list of them XP

[zarahjoyce.livejournal.com]

I am currently downloading ep 31 as we speak! ALSO pffffft I am excited to play my Moune off your Hyde, PLEASE CAN WE DO THIS NAO I BEG YOU.

[etapa.livejournal.com]

Woohoo! I hope you enjoy it ;)

Teehee, it'd be beyond awesome to play! Just let me know where to go and so forth ;) I'm notorious (sort of) for being slow, though, so I hope I won't exhaust your patience, or Moune's! :P

I noticed there is at least one Hyde already at dear_mun. They don't seem to require applications?

[zarahjoyce.livejournal.com]

Nope! dear_mun is a dressing room, so you just make a character journal, join the community, and post as your character complaining about why on earth he ever allowed you to pick him up, or basically have your character say anything he wants there. I usually go and post there whenever I want to voice test a new character :D

[etapa.livejournal.com]

Oh, awesome! I guess a character journal is due soon. As soon as I come up with a decent username, since goseiblue is taken already :)

[zarahjoyce.livejournal.com]

Woohoooo! ♥ I am excited adsgfjhkjlk.

[etapa.livejournal.com]

Oh lady, you give me too much credit ;)

[zarahjoyce.livejournal.com]

PFFFT NONSENSE.

...also I might be doing icon posts soon. Expect some Hyde ones coming your way! GDI THIS IS JUST LIKE WHEN I GOT ADDICTED TO SHINKENGER.

[etapa.livejournal.com]

Hooray! Hyde icons! <3!!! So looking forward to that post XD

Sentai can be very addictive. Good thing they don't make us fat like Coke and toasted bagels with cream cheese and jelly... Oops, off-track.

Let me know what you thought of the epi after you watch it ;)
(how up to date are you with Gosei, btw? o.o?)

[zarahjoyce.livejournal.com]

I'm at 80% for my downloading ep 31! Sob, my net connection is quite slow :( And very much updated! I think I only have less than five episodes that I missed - Eri's when she was kidnapped (the one with the dreams), GoseiKnight and Nozomu bonding (I think), and the one with Nozomu/his dad/his mom. I usually tend to avoid Nozomu eps in general.

[etapa.livejournal.com]

Ah, you ARE quite updated :D Good, I usually try to be careful enough not to spoil people (even if I myself love spoilers, hehe).

Oh, I see you don't like Nozomu?

[zarahjoyce.livejournal.com]

Oh, don't worry! I don't mind spoilers at all, in fact I actively seek them :D

And, well... Nozomu is so-so for me, I guess? I don't hate him, I just... don't care about him, I guess.

[etapa.livejournal.com]

LOL, gotcha. I see. I'll keep that in mind, shall I find interesting spoilers to spoil you with ;)

Ugh, coming up with usernames gives me headaches. If at least there was a character song! That'd make it easier -_-

[zarahjoyce.livejournal.com]

I usually use the character's lines in the show when coming up with a character name, but pffft not applicable here. How about seaicksoul or seaick_soul? Both are available!

[etapa.livejournal.com]

Ooh, I'll grab the latter :D I'll have Hyde join dear_mun and complain all he likes 'cause for some reason he thinks it's MY fault that he was forced to run, LOL.

And then I'll have to call it a night, it's starting to get late-ish :( Talk to you later ;)

[zarahjoyce.livejournal.com]

Yay! Let me know when it's up so I can bug you :D Good night! It's been awesome talking to you ♥

[etapa.livejournal.com]

Mwahaha, the milk has been spilled (http://community.livejournal.com/dear_mun/31033504.html), and Hyde is not exactly happy.

(playing a character as IC as possible is NOT easy TOT)

[zarahjoyce.livejournal.com]

ILU

Will troll that post like right now!

[etapa.livejournal.com]

Nyahahaha! XD

Please be patient with me, though. I'm a slow RP-er XP

(did you check that epi? +_+)

[zarahjoyce.livejournal.com]

YES I HAVE AND PFFFT I CAN'T BELIEVE I FORGOT THOSE!

Also also I've made several Hyde icons! It's in here (http://zarahjoyce.livejournal.com/105211.html#cutid1) :D And no worries! I shall wait for your Hyde :D

[etapa.livejournal.com]

Hehe, well, now you've seen them! Gotta love how Moune was all-gentle while tending to him. I tried to make icons out of it, but they didn't come out very pretty -_- The tower of heaven moment was adorable, too XD

Thank you, I appreciate it. I might only be able to do one reply tonight, but as long as you're in, we'll keep going, hopefully ;)

HOORAY! ICONS! Snagging several for Hyde and for myself ;) With credits, of course!

[zarahjoyce.livejournal.com]

Sob, yes. That really was too cute a moment :D

Sure, snag away! I may have been carried away with that batch (it's the biggest I've done in a single seating ever) but hopefully I'll be able to do more in the future!
