Gundam Wing: Episodes One and Two

[rowanberries]

OH MY GOD.

*spittakes and flails*

Okay, that is... um, NOT what I imagined Duo sounding like? Trowa, however...

Only he's talking!

D'aww, sensitive blond kid.

*Snerks* Okay, Wufei! Don't be too modest!

...This blonde girl is Bella Swan? DID THEY JUST APPLAUD HER FOR ASKING HIM- OSNAP!

Anyway, he's totally gay. As well as a secret agent, obvs. Give it up, Blonde Bella!

...Or maybe he really is Edward Cullen. "I'll kill you." And DRINK HER DELICIOUS BLOOD, HEERO?

Oh, wow, credits sequence OF DESTINY. POSE, DUO!

EPISODE TWO. Man, that is the tamest fencing I have ever seen. Show them, Heero!

Way to maintain your cover as a totally normal student, Heero!

BEST PROPAGANDA EVER. "In conclusion, five identical, harmless, disintegrated meteorites. Not manned spacecraft. At all. I know it was rumoured that they were manned spacecrafts, in case you hadn't heard. But they weren't. Manned. Or spacecraft. Thank you for your time!"

Hee, circus!Trowa.

Oh, Zechs. I think you may be a fierce beast already.

...For this next part, I insert a chatlog:

alternaberries: I think the machoness of Duo's voice destroyed my connection.
KILL HER, HEERO.
So. The first time Duo met his exboyfriend.
He shot him.

MerkyDee: that's how you know it's love

alternaberries: But he no longer has the right to be bemused by any of Puck and Havelock's
courting rituals!

MerkyDee: RIGHT
Duo is such a hypocrite

OH RANDOM TV SHOWS. <3

Okay, I must know. Were you watching the dub? You must have been. I swear Duo does not actually sound like a Canadian lumberjack.

[othercaptjack]

YES I WAS.

IT IS HILARIOUS.

[jothra]

Okay, I was trying to find a youtube clip to demonstrate, but all I could find was fanvids and opening sequences.

Should you desire to watch subs...coughcough it is possible to find them.

Also, shut up, that is a perfectly valid way to meet someone.

If you are both teenage terrorists.

:D :D :D

Totally valid! And it doesn't seem like Heero minded. He was up and jumping onto missiles only moments later!

[gramarye1971]

Oh, Gundam Wing. The explosions, the crazy, the sheer WTFery of 90 percent of the plot lines...good times, good times. *giggles, and wipes away a nostalgic tear for one of her first fandoms*

AHAHAHAHAHA YOU ARE WATCHING IT.




*reads comments*

...AHAHAHAHAHA YOU ARE WATCHING THE DUB.

(I actually have never watched the dub; I have no idea what Trowa's English voice sounds like. I should sometime, but I am afraid.)

[rowanberries.livejournal.com]

It's... earnest!

Seriously, it's not as bad as Duo's. XD

[genarti]

Well now that's a high standard.

(I have heard Duo's, because Jo showed me one scene, enough to make me sputter and choke and flail at her. Fun fact: Duo's English voice actor has also played Wolverine!)

[rowanberries.livejournal.com]

(HAAAAAA.)

Because I care: Here, at 1:10.

[genarti]

I either love you or hate you. When I'm no longer at work, I'll click through and let you know which!

[gramarye1971]

Fun fact: Duo's English voice actor has also played Wolverine!

That prompted me to go and look up Toshihiko Seki (Duo's Japanese VA)...and it turns out that he was also the Japanese dub voice for the Tenth Doctor. Yep, Duo Maxwell's seiyuu dubbed David Tennant.

(I LOVE playing Six Degrees of Voice Actor Separation. It's utterly hilarious once you get going.)

[genarti]

Ahahaha awesome!

I looked them both up at one point. I remember there was some serious hilarity for both their English voice actors (Trowa's was Michaelangelo! the ninja turtle! in some very obscure movie), but I hadn't remembered that one.

The voice actor game is a fabulous one indeed.

[the_croupier]

LOL, I just watched the first two too. It must be the month for it.

I want to switch to the dubs now, though. Lumberjack!Duo.

[jothra]

Now you're just mocking me. D:

[rowanberries.livejournal.com]

HE'S A LUMBERJACK.

(HE'S OKAY.)

[the_croupier]

It's better than SwedishChef!Duo.

Bork! Bork! Bork!
