Greetings [24 Mar 2008|09:19pm]

Hey everyone! I've been a Last Exile fan for several years now and just recently watched it for the fourth time. It gets better each time I watch it, mostly because I understand a lot I didn't at first because I'm dumb. :D
Anyway here goes:

Favorite Character: Mullin! I love watching his journey over the whole series. Plus he's just great. :)
Least Favorite Character: Delphine *cancerous rays of hate directed at her body* Sorry to all you D-fans :)
Favorite Song: Cloud Age Symphony, but the Silvana theme often makes me cry for some reason.
Favorite Ship or Location: Urbanus :D Go Vince!
Favorite Voice Actor: Crispin Freeman (Alex)
Least Favorite Voice Actor: Alvus (errrrgh shoot me now!!)
Subs or Dubs?: I haven't managed to watch it in Japanese yet. Yes, I fail. But the dubs aren't painful to my ears, which is more than i can say for many dubbed animes.
Other Comments/Favorite Aspects: I LOOOVE the music....it usually makes me cry. Other favorite characters are Dio, Alex, and Vincent
Other Favorite Anime/Mangas: Animes: Bleach and Fullmetal Alchemist (really not an anime fan) Mangas: Tsubasa, Bleach, Death Note, Fruits Basket, Fullmetal Alchemist

Last Exile Disc 5 Screencaps [24 Feb 2008|09:23pm]

Hello All:

I'm new to the community and a Last Exile Junkie. I recently picked up the 7 disc art cover boxed set at my local FYE for only $45. I was psyched!

Anyway, I was just screencapping disc 5 to use as a screensaver on my computer and figured I would upload the caps for the community. 

Here's the link to the photobucket album with the screencaps.   Please do not hotlink, but help yourself to the caps!  I'll keep the folder open for as long as I can (until the bandwidth runs out).

Enjoy!

Looking for a beta! [24 Feb 2008|02:47pm]

Or two. :3 I'm getting close to finishing the first chapter of my Alex/Sophia AU fic. It's sort of based off of Beauty and the Beast and is quite fun, I think!

So I'd like to get an LE fan or two to proofread it once I'm done. Your job would just be to read it over, give feedback, and if you'd like, suggest edits. :3

It's not smutty, nor particularly romantic in this section.

Hi guys. I'm selling all of my Last Exile books on eBay. This includes every Spheres book and the official show guide thingie. Everything is in Japanese.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=300197740177
The books are not in collectable condition so here's a chance for someone who perhaps otherwise can't afford the books to get their hands on them :D
Many details are in the auction itself. Feel free to ask questions if you're wondering about something which wasn't covered there.

Please note I will not ship the books outside of the United States because they weigh a lot.

So I finished watching Last Exile. Of course I've watched it beginning to end many times before, but it always seems new to me every year that I watch it. (Mostly because I forget what happens!) Anyway, spoilers if you haven't reached the end yet.

RP Booty Call! [04 Jan 2008|11:20pm]

[ mood | chipper ]

I'm not sure how many people I'll flush out of the woodworks with this, but I'll give it a go! It worked pretty well in the Phoenix Wright fandom I'm in (though another person did this, not me), so~

Anybody up for Last Exile-based RP?

I prefer to play Sophia, but I can probably handle pretty much anybody. If you're up for romance (or smut XD), preferred pairings are Alex/Sophia and Vincent/Sophia, but ask and I might say yes!. Pre-series, during, or post, doesn't matter. Hell, even Alternate Universe RPs are cool! I mean, wouldn't you want to see the characters at college or something? Maybe fighting demons ala Buffy the Vampire Slayer?

I can do non-romance, of course (though I do loves me some drama, and some smut). I don't really like group RPs, but I'll give stuff a shot~

Hopefully, even if you're not interested in RPing with me, you'll find somebody else in the comments who you are!

So, if you're at all interested in LE RP, whether it be with me or with whoever, leave a comment!

(If you want to contact me - ElegantExecution on AIM, any other messengers just ask)

I just watched Castling Lucciola last night and I noticed something that confused me. It had never registered before last night.

Why did the two guild servants (one who asked "Where did you take Dio?" and the other asked "will you fight Cicada?") arm Lucciola? They handed him that bladed staff. And it's not like he tried to hide what he was going to do, he answered that he would fight Cicada if he turned against Dio.

Maybe it's just me, but I would think that Delphine would order her servants to try and capture Lucciola. The ones that were guarding Delphine attacked him and he defeated them all, so why didn't those two attack or at least not give him a weapon?

Hi i'm new here, I just managed to get hold of Geneons out of print Range Murata thinpack boxed set, something i've been wanting for 2 or three years now (although by the looks of it i should have waited and bought the deluxe edition O__O) and it's re-invigorated my love for this series even if i think Alex is a steampunk Captain Harlock XD

Here my first info:

favorite character Alex Row, Dunya Sheer
least favorite character None really
favorite song cloud age symphony
favorite ship or location Claus and Lavi's vanship or The Urbanus for all those dials in the control room XD
favorite voice actor not sure
least favorite voice actor i don't think i have one.
subs or dubs? I generally watch the dub first; but that doesn't mean it more or less than the sub
other comments/favorite aspects probably the best steampunk show i've ever seen; i love steampunk
favorite pairing/slash ?
other favorite anime/mangas anime: Kino's Journey, Mushishi, Captain Harlock, Hellsing OVA, Genshiken, Seirei no Moribito, Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei, Baccano!, Moyashimon, Requiem from the Darkness,  Ruruouni Kenshin, Lain, Black Lagoon, Lupin III. Manga: Blade of the Immortal, Vagabond, Battle Angel Alita, Berserk, Genshiken, Yotsubato!, Storm Riders, Hellsing

On a side note i was thinking of doing an Alex cosplay at some point i was wondering if anyone had some high res scans of his belt buckle/shield broach? I do have some scans (mainly from Spheres and Aerial Log) do i can't make out the details very well :(

Sorry, but I have to rant about something! (Spoilers)

Every year I watch Last Exile in December. I love the series and it's become sort of a tradition for me. But every year, I dread getting to episode 13: Isolated Pawn.

I vividly remember the first time I watched that episode way back in 03. The episode was so boring, and it seemed to go on forever! It didn't seem like a half hour, it seemed like two hours. Today was the day that I got to that episode and it still feels a lot longer than it usually is. I know I probably shouldn't watch it because I dislike it so much, but every year I forget if something actually important happens in that episode, so I force myself to watch it. x_x

What's with the style of the episode? It's so different than the rest of the series, and not in a good way. Plus it's repetitive: Tatiana keeps repeating the letter to her parents over and over.

Sorry if you like the episode, it's just that it's been bugging me for a while, so I had to get it off my chest.
