So watching Eureka Seven and reading through Bateszi and Animanachronism’s stuff, I find myself digging for deeper connections in everyday mundane tasks. It was tough for a while, because lately all I’ve been doing is saging newfags on /b/, and watching George Lopez from 9pm till 4am. So I torrented Eureka Seven to watch to ease me back into anime.

It finishes torrenting and I start to watch, its got great music and pretty pictures, but that’s pretty much it. Until all of a sudden the show depicts an old woman of a certain determinist faith, and she just so happens to be labeled as a terrorist by the government for no logical reason other than “she’s different”.(America for the LOSE!)So what does Gekko-state do?They capture her and go to collect the reward money, and then they go back on the deal steal the money and take to woman to her homeland.When there she spouts some pop-theology to Renton and his mind is blown.

This interests me only because the creators of the show spend these episodes crafting a light anime, when all of a sudden theres ethnic cleansing, and war flashbacks, and old tea lady stating that everything is predetermined. Thats like walking into church and slapping everyone there with a copy of Thus Spoke Zarathustra.

I have nothing serious to say other than WTF? I mean its so poppy and happy then its vietnam then its poppy again.
