GetBackers: and now it's over

We finished GetBackers last night and I feel a bit bereft. I want to see more of Ban, Ginji and the gang. Also, since the ending, while a good stopping point, doesn't wrap everything up (since the manga is still running), I keep wanting to know. Do Ban and Ginji and the rest take out Babylon City? Do we learn more about Ban's family and background? How about Himiko's curse? Does Shido's past, whatever it is, catch up with him and does he have to put his life on the line to protect Madoka as he swore (because those storylines certainly seemed to be a foreshadowing)? Do Ban and Himiko finally get their act together and just do it? Does Akabane finally get a dress sense and Hevn a shirt that covers ALL of ther breasts? (Unlikely but one lives in hope). Heck, do the boys ever get enough money to live on?

It's like I've seen this great thing, but I am greedy and want more.

( Longish thoughts )

I really must do a GB picspam now.

Friday Grab Bag: BSG, Veronica Mars, anime stuff and GetBackers picspam

For once, this isn't just an anime post. Though to be fair, the other shows I normally like and write about are on a summer break.

Recent shippy BSG spoilers on thesecretcylon have certainly made me think ( Discussion of said spoilers )

In other news, I am severely amused by ( mild VM S3 casting spoiler )

And in anime news (yes, really). I've decided that I definitely want Tamaki/Haruhi in Ouran. Not just because for the rest of the guys it's entertaining or what not, and they like her, but Tamaki is the only one who is really desperate/serious about it, but because duty-bound prosaic Haruhi needs someone dramatic and fun. They will totally be Haruhi's parents Mark 2.

Also, I've been rewatching Fushigi Yuugi and rewatches are interesting experiences (I've rewatched certain scenes and episodes before ("I've found you" *swoon faint drool*) but never the whole FY). ( Thoughts on Nakago and social order )

I also foresee an anime buying binge: Tsubasa Chronicles, Bleach, Saiyuki Reload and Gunlock (I have them rented but I want to own), Trinity Blood, Samurai Champloo, Basilisk (when released) and Ouran (when season is complete).

And last but not least, the promised GetBackers picspam
