1. Snape's Worst Memory because he's all young, handsome and being a jerk and flirting with James and it's an all around great scene.

2. The House of Black chapter where he tells Harry everything about the horror of his family and the taspestry thing because I'm the big House of Black fangirl I am.

3. Shrieking Shack in PoA, because duh. Also when he asks Harry to come live with him because ♥

Urgh, I want to mention more. Damn.

Nice picks! The House of Black chapter is the one I like most of them. It says so much about his character.

Cowboy Bebop, which is an awesome anime with space cowboys and jazz, has a Spike as the main character (hence the "spike" "the other spike" joke in my interests)

All right-ey

1/ Fool for Love, err, does the whole episode count ? I could pick my three favourite scenes from that episode alone... Okay, the China part and the slo-mo when the Fearsome Foursome walks through the city on fire and also the shagging Dru after killing the slayer. ♥ but now my hearts bleed from not mentionning punk!Spike.

2/ Lover's Walk, especially the part when Spike is crying piteously to Willow then threatening her 'if you don't succeed then I'll kill him and you'll try again' XD oooh and the chocolate with marshemalow talk with Joyce, and the taunting Angel and the... okay, I'll be quiet now.

3/ The "No, not the hair ! Never the hair !" "Say no more! Evil's still out and I'm almost out of that nancy-hair gel I like so much ! Quickly to the Angelmobile" monologue from Into the Dark because, dude.

*sighs* I'd forgotten how much I loved that character and how rabid I was about that show...

Ah, all right. That joke makes a lot more sense now.

Just reading through these descriptions makes me want to go and re-watch some old episodes. Fool for Love and Lover's Walk would definitely have to be on that list.

(heh) my first thought was the other spike too... So, how about your Top three moments or scenes with Spike Spiegal

From: [identity profile] etrangere.livejournal.com
All right, that's more difficult because I only watched Cowboy Bebop once, so bear with my hazy memory.

1/ Green Bird, the falling through the window in the cathedrale and the waking up after that. That was stunning in a cinematographic fashion (it was the first thing i saw of it and i got hooked immediatly)

2/ "Bang !"

3/ the whole duel with the blonde cowboy guy ? That was hillarious.

You're a Clamp fan, ne. If you have been watching XXXholic, what have been your favourite Doumeki moments? (because Doumeki/Watanuki is love). If you haven't then you'll have to tell me what you watch at the mo :)

ext_2023: (blood sugar sex magick)
From: [identity profile] etrangere.livejournal.com
Yes, so desu ka !

No watching, but i read the manga, well the French releases that is.

I'm not the hugest fan of Doumeki, but mmmm

1/ the archery thing he did during the ghost tale marathon, that was cool.

2/ the way he reacted when the ghost-woman was sucking the life out of Watanuki

3/ when he ate Doumeki's Valentine chocolate, because I like cheek

and, dude, it's all about the ClowxYuuko.

hmm, I wonder how different the anime and manga are... I only watch the anime (not a bit manga reader, too lazy XD). but yeah much love for anime doumeki :)

From: [identity profile] etrangere.livejournal.com
He's okay, but I generally find Doumeki et Watanuki to be pale copies of Kazahaya and Rikuou from Gohou Drugs.

I heard bad things from the anime, but then again my friends tend to be manga canon freaks ^^

I almost only read manga myself, it's rare that I prefer the anime adaptation over the manga . Well, there's Utena.

I do adore Yuuko, as the number of icons of her I have hint.

I haven't looked at any Gohou Drugs, only saw them when they popped up in holic. OMG! Utena killed my brain dead, I STILL don't completely understand what the fuck is going on

From: [identity profile] etrangere.livejournal.com
lol I adore Utena, it's the kind of serie i could watch and analyze endlessly.

I wrote an essay about Utena once, wanna see ?

I'm planning one about Gnosticism and Utena too... XD

Date: 27 July 2006 02:49 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] the-senjou.livejournal.com
well I enjoyed utena enough to buy the whole series and the movie (and I identify with Utena way too much). do you have a linky to the essay?

I think what hooked me to utena was:
A) I just understood Utena herself (I am completely like that with my friends)
B) the opening sequence
C) duels rock

Actually it was only the very last story-arc that threw me. The finale just did my head in. I loved it, but didn't completely understand it.

Linky It's on usenet.

Funny that I don't identify with Utena at all. If anything I identify with Anthy, but it's a long stretch.

the duels are cool, but I love the whole symbolical feast of it ! and the mindfucks, incest, and very twisted outlook at people's relationships. Oh, and the fucked up fairy tales aspect.

Utena works on a thematic and symbolical plan. Sometimes trying to make it work in a pure sequential / logical way doesn't make sense. You have to think about what things mean, what they stand for. IMHO.

yes you're right, it was just I couldn't help be disappointed a bit as I was enjoying it on both levels up until that point. but still, I watch the damn thing over and over :)

1/ Rainbow Bridge.

2/ Sakurazuka!Subaru ♥ he's gorgeous when he's full of despair

3/ the whole discussion about giving over your organs in TB5 when Seishirou gives him a hug from behind

1/ the flashback when she's a little girl, heart breaking as it is.

2/ when Nataku dies and she holds him in his arms.

3/ when she appears in underwears and explains that her "Sect" is the Flowers'

ain't we all there *sighs*

1/ when he starts singing "Sleeping Beauty" out of nowhere during Shuichi's failed concert

2/ the drawing session was it ? about explaining what shiny means

3/ the time when he snobbed totally Shuichi so that Shuichi got a voice extinction.

Date: 27 July 2006 03:32 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] chaineddove.livejournal.com
Yeah, I fell in lust with him over that a capella rendition of "Sleepless Beauty", that's for sure. And YAY for the shiny (one of my top Ryu-chan moments, as well).

Since no one else has explicitly asked for your three favorite scenes with an Utena character, and I met you through the Utena fandom, I'll be the first.

Kozue (heh, you knew I'd ask you about her).

1/ During Miki's third duel, when she decides to see for herself what's so special about Anthy

2/ when she saved the little bird and the ensueing cutish sibling scenes up to "we're wild animal" dialogue.

3/ when she explains her version of the piano story to her friends in the first double Miki episode

Extra: when she pushed Miki's teacher down the stairs

♥ Kozue

From: [identity profile] darksumomo.livejournal.com
1 (Kozue discovers her bisexuality!), 2, and the extra are among my favorites for Kozue. Also Kozue as a Black Rose Duellist. I think she and Shiori are the only characters to wear both Duellist uniforms and Rose Bride Gowns in the series.I'll have to watch that scene again to see what was so special about 3.

As for the message on your icon, of course! Now, if only the Atlantic Ocean weren't in the way...

From: [identity profile] etrangere.livejournal.com
Yes, they are. Which is what makes Kozue and Shiori two of the most interesting side characters.

I just liked that scene as a conclusion to the episode. It had a lot of feeling about... different point of views, different realities people have ? I think it was the moment I fell in love with SKU.

*chuckles* silly excuses.

Yuuko! Though this may be difficult, given how consistently awesome she is. (Goodness, me as a Yuuko fangirl? What a silly idea...)

Ooh, not easy, I'm in the middle of rewatching Firefly. Lemmesee :

1/ Cockney speaking River with Badger and "prettying" up Jayne by slashing him

2/ Dancing River in that rather silly episode following Shinding; because dancing is pretty and because it's one of the rare occasion when she's got OMG shoes on.

3/ the finale of Object in Space, because it's so cool.
