Shameful Otaku Secret!

The Plan For Japan’s Independence

Everyone is blogging Geass R2 this season. I was going to just count the Pizza Hut references, but instead I want to pose a few questions.

1. Are they giving out Geass in action claw machines, or as some bloggers have postulated, free with Pizza Hut orders of over $20?

2. When does the bunny suit portion of the show end? Isn’t that kind of stuff supposed to come later in a show when interest is waning? I mean, we already have the, uh, nontraditional Knightmare frame. Give the poor girl a hint of dignity for fuck’s sake — she’s a revolutionary, not a member of Prince and the Revolution!

3. More to the point, does this screencap look ironic to you?

4. Why is everyone hating on Suzaku so bad? He’s frustrating, perhaps retarded, as a person, but as a character I’d call him ok, I mean you gots to have the arch-enemy. I am a little disappointed the Ultimate Face-off between him and Lulu didn’t really happen, but whatevs.

5. Doesn’t Zero remind you of anyone right now?

Perhaps:

Another disturbing thing I just caught: the opening animation of the map shows the center of the Brittanian Empire as being the Americas? What? I know I’m obviously late to this party, and I will allow Japan their customary xenophobia, but at least get your whiteys straight, people. The year 1776 ring a bell? We hate those guys! Well, not really, but you know what I’m saying.

Tune in next week to see whose cuisine will reign supreme! (Hint: probably involves cheese, crust, and tomatoes)

- otou-san out!
