Got summoned for jury duty and actually ended up serving for the first time. Ended up being an unfortunate situation where the person was probably guilty (and the victim was extremely sympathetic), but the cops just didn't follow up enough when gathering evidence.

"You're wrong! As if someone like that could be our son!" Oof, hitting on some familiar themes in this episode.

Marvel tried that shit in the 80s and it was a complete failure.
this plus manga actually have an ending. Which is why I have the radical idea that both Marvel and DC should one day "end" their universes. And then they can bring in writers to create new stories of new heroes with a set beginning and ending.

Had a pretty boring first episode, was thinking about dropping this, but this cracked me up.

This episode literally caused me to experience stomach pain, just like Kurumi herself. It's a rare occasion for me to empathize so much with a character, while genuinely wishing for their death.

I'm discovering that financial irresponsibility, especially with someone elses money, is a serious point of stress for me. This show is actually uncomfortable for me to watch.

I wonder if this is an Amuro situation, where the Dunbine is unable to keep up with him.

Hurry it up and skip to the good part
Got around to checking out the new Rayearth. So far I'm mostly positive, though visually it ranges from pretty good to not working for me at all. I've heard it's been more faithful to the manga so far tho, so I'm glad for manga fans. I'll be waiting for best girl to show up.

Ah yes, twenty bags of money. Presumably with dollar signs drawn on them.

Really solid episode, I like them hammering home the themes of traditions being supplanted by the brute force the Aura Battlers allow for.

I also like the detail of Pat Hood feeling pity for Keen at the beginning of the episode, when she cries over her father's death, but by the end she's refusing to cry after the same has happened to her.

Genuinely, this show is stressing me out a bit.
Watched the first episode of FX Senshi Kurumi-chan, and I really liked it. Really sold the emotional intensity of degenerate gambling.

The Brotherhood Without Banners isn't some shallow political commentary, it's using the Robin Hood story to explore morality, and where it comes from.
My biggest criticism of ASOIAF is that the Brotherhood Without Banners and Lady Stoneheart are a pretty hamfisted centrist attempt of cautionary tale about revolutionary terror or whatever

The Brotherhood replaces the morality of oaths to one's liege, with their loyalty to the "realm" and to a dead king (loyalty to an abstract ideal of a king, rather than to the reality).

Lady Stoneheart taking over the Brotherhood isn't GRRM making some vague statement about revolution going too far, it's more about how it isn't enough to reject morality, you have to build something new on a solid philosophical foundation.
