In the meantime, I've got a room in the dungeon for him, right next
to the one I use for Genma....
Like I said: utterly degenerate, illogical, insensitive...
Hey, maybe he's Genma reborn! ^_^;
Hardly. His flaws are the opposite of Genma's. Placed in the same
situation, Genma would have grabbed for the advantages without seeing
the problems.
I guess the BIG different is that Genma is a major character, whereas
Hitmaru isn't likely to have too big a role in the rest of the story
(barring major changes of plans). :-)
The newest Senshi
Oh, man, Bendis really screwed this one up, didn't she? I've been
thinking about it, and I've come to the conclusion that Iku is probably
Sailor Moon. Or maybe Sailor Rupert. (Hitchhiker's Guide reference).
No...the villain's daignosis seems true: she's just unconfident. Of the
major characters thus far, if I had to, I'd bet on the girl who
indicated Iku to Bendis being Sailor Moon.
Bendis's scan of Iku implies that she had more options than being Mars.
Bendis' scan mostly showed what Iku _might_ have been. (I have a feeling that
the last image -- alone among the fallen, on a battlefield at sunset, facing
a vast and shadowy foe -- may be in her real future ... but if so, it's long
past the end of this story -- possibly centuries later.)
Still, this is a first rate series. Some of the best Sailor Moon
fanfiction in the field.
Thanks!
Cheers,
Angus
