When I was in Best Buy the other day, saw the Devil May Cry anime and thought, what the hell, I liked the game series why not check it out. Its a fun little show, but if you're looking to see Dante, Trish, Lady and the game world in general more fleshed out, you'll be a little disappointed. In any case, its a good looking anime with cool action. Though it was odd to see an ep where Lady and Trish were trying out clothes in a fancy boutique, as neither chick seemed like they're into that sort of thing from what you saw of them in the games.
Slowly getting through more of Tramps Like Us. As I said, a very, odd, almost disturbing situation they have set up, but I'm finding the relationship between Sumire and Momo quite endearing.
Monday night TV commentary:
The Middleman- I enjoyed this. I definitely liked the dialog (hey, I liked Gilmore Girls, so this Gilmoreian speed banter is fine with me). Heh, I think my favorite line was when Dub-Dub (which I find a more amusing nickname for Ms. Wendy Watson than "Dubby") was all, "But you said the l-word that one time!" Being emotionally closed off as I am, I'm always amused when people call it that "l-word". (I mean, I can say I love guns, or cars, or hamburgers, or strippers. But saying the "l-word" to another person?! Weird!)
I also loved all the pop culture references, if only because I can think I'm so great when I get them. There were more than a couple references that were "blink (wait, what's the hearing equivalent of blink?) and you'll miss them" sort of things. But I find it hilarious that there's this one secondary character whose only purpose seems to be to sit there and shout random pop culture references. It can be a little strange and silly at times (closer to Pushing Daisies strange than Doctor Who silly, I think), but overall, I thought it was a pretty cool show.
