xparrot | GB: end of an era

For those of us who still attend the First Church of BanGin - all good things must come to an end...and the GetBackers manga just did yesterday.

And I am thrilled to report that despite my fears about A&A-sensei, they came through. Super-super-happy ending, for the WIN.

I've only been haphazardly following the series, flipping through the weekly Shounen Mag chapters without trying to read them (trying to translate GB hurts my brain, yo. And my eyes, all those little kanji...) and sporadically checking the translations folks have been posting on

getbackers. So I don't actually know what's going on - Ginji became 'god', went to an alternate (the real) universe and met his mom and discovered he'd died a long time before, Ban was going to vanish from existence from having used the Jagan more than thrice a day...yeah. Hurts my brain. So I don't know exactly how they got to this ending.

But sometimes pictures speak louder than words. So, yes. Happi endo!!

Kazuki's threesome:

My only regret is that Shido & Madoka didn't actually tie the knot. But hey! MakubeX is out and about! And has become a GitS fanboy!

Hevn is going to spend her ever after with Masaki (much to Ban's immense dismay.)

Masaki is saying "Mine!" in response to Ban's attempt to glom onto his sweetie's bosum last panel.

Team Transporter go!

And because I know you all are dying to know, does The Superhappy Ending mean that Emishi & Amon open a maid cafe together?
The answer is Yes. Yes, it does.

But the last pages really say it all:

"Let's go, Ginji!"
"Yeah, Ban-chan!!"

(the overlay text reads: "A shop of friends -- a tumult of ways -- the two sprinting...this town will never change!!")

I've just been waiting for like, the past year to catch up on all what the hell is happening, considering it was starting to get so crazy and OMGANGSTBUNNIES. Like you, I was somewhat terrified A&A were really going to do something truly awful.

NOW I AM HAPPY. MY SPIRIT IS BUOYED UP ON CLOUDS. FLUFFY FLUFFY CLOUDS.

But Masaki and Hevn. That is so weird.

(I can't stop ♥ing at the Emishi and Amon maids o god.)

Yessss exactly - I've been following it vaguely, but had decided to hold off trying to read the series (nothing will improve my Japanese like plowing through this monster, I swear) until I could be sure I wasn't setting myself up for tragedy of the OMFG century (this is A&A-sensei. I'm still not convinced that they don't sekkritly desire Death by Fangirl Apocalypse XD)

But this! <3

*floasts with you. my cloud's fluffier than your cloud! :P*

I can't read more than a sprinkling of words and phrases of Japanese here and there so I'm reduced to following the summaries people give on the comms and whatnot. ;o; Though I could completely believe death by Fangirl Apocalypse was on A&A-sensei's list of top 10 kinky fantasies.

(Fluffier than mine? O, but could you teach me?)
