[i can smell your spicy brains]
May. 7th, 2005 10:08 amWhew. I'm still full. I ate too much pizza. I didn't even have room for cake. :(
I caught the first episode of Trinity Blood last night. It was really good. It's got vampires and flying ships (any wonder that Gonzo is involved after Hellsing and Last Exile...) ^_^
ANN's summary:
The three important groups, the Empire, the Vatican and the Order of the Rozen Kreuz, are always in conflict. The Empire is on a country called Methuselah and the race is called Vampire. There is conflict with the Vaticano for the difference of races. The protagonist is a priest called Peter Abel Nightroad, who travels through the countries as a representative for the Department of Foreign Affairs in Vatican. However, he also belongs to a secret agency of the Vatican known as "Ax", a Special Operation Group controlled by the Cardinal Catherina Sforza, secretary of the Deparment of Foreing Affairs. His encounter with a young girl called Esther will determine the struggle and survival between the human race and the vampires.
It's pretty good so far. The flying ships are nicely done (just as they were in Last Exile) and the animation was nice. It had good music and nice character designs too.


Oh yeah. Me likey him.
