My emotional corner - CODE GEASS!

Greetings, dear blog (look who's treating you like a diary)

I need to get something out in the open: I am quite an otaku (fan of manga and anime).

Today I watched the last episode of Code Geass - the very last.

And I am in tears... No, really, I am crying like a baby!

This anime deserves an adjective that is being used too lightly nowadays: EPIC.

For this show was truly epic - the storyline, the characters, the conflicts, the philosophy, the art, the music - everything blends together and creates a PERFECT anime.

I pity people who miss out on this breathtaking story just because they never watch anime.

I am.... well, for one, I am still crying, because some things just gets to me.

I won't spoil the ending, it is something you have to experience on your own.

All I can say is - watch it, please watch it.. It is worth it.

..... Now I'll smoke a cigarette and brood over the many many questions and emotions flowing through my mind, after having enjoyed the wicked ride that was CODE GEASS.

Below is a link to one of the songs from the soundtracks, which just gives a sense of how complex and strong a show it is..

And just to top it, here is one of many spectacular quotes, showing the depth of the story:

"A Long time ago, Nunally, Suzaku, and I talked about something. We wondered what happiness would look like if we could give it a physical form. If I'm not mistaken, I think it was Suzaku that said that the shape of happiness might resemble glass. His reasoning made sense. He said that even though you don't usually notice it, its still definitely there. You merely have to change your point of view slightly, and then that glass will sparkle when it reflects the light. I doubt that anything else could argue its own existence more eloquently."

And now I'll stop my shameless promoting and try calming myself down a little... Whoosh..
