Besides, I find that "funny" can be a good reason to do something. Some
might argue that we're just having change for change's sake here. That
may be, but John and I decided back when we started Z that we were not
going to make ourselves bound by the anime or manga. We would treat them
as foundation (up through S, at least) and guidelines, but we would feeel
bound by what had gone before. It is our interpretation of Sailor Moon
and it might disagree with your own... we hope that this does not detract
from your enjoyment of our series.
blinks at that last comment for a moment before falling down laughing.<<
Jeff, if I had a problem with people expressing views that differ from my own,
the FFML is the last place I should hang out on. In actuallity, I happen to
like Z a great deal. You asked for comments, and I gave them. What you do
with them is up to you.
Getting back to Clark for a moment, though.... Personally, I do feel that the
first name Clark is common enough not to warrent being the butt of endless
superman jokes unless a) his last name WAS Kent, or b) he was a dead ringer
for the man. (This would include the various actors who have played the roll
such as Chris Reves or Dean Cain)
My problem with Minako in this episode was somehow I missed the move from the
more cannonical Minako to the one who really wants to jump Steve's bones and
doesnt seem to care who knows.
As to the rest? >>shrug<< I'm of the belief that if you have a problem with
something, write a story about it. Heck, I've shown my contribution to the SM
universe to the ML, a story so commonplace it evoked no commentary whatsoever,
but someone did like it enough that they asked if they could add it to their
archive site.
BTW, were the two of you ever able to get that .wav I sent Bailesu-sama of my
take for your ending credits to work? Just curious, cause I never heard
anything back about it, not even a "Nice, but not what we were looking for"
