Your Soul Eater Moment of Zen.

[nenena]

I ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ you so much, kamdensl.

BTW, if you like it, be sure to comment on devart and let Kamden know!

Context, for the confused:

Why 'Soul Eater' is exactly like 'The Lost World' but with bonus Cthulhu

So The Lost World starts with Ian Malcolm who's all like "OMG JOHN HAMMOND IS BACK WTF" and then this dude Peter Ludlow who comes out of fucking nowhere is all like, "Yeah, no, I'm not actually John Hammond, I'm just using his brand-name recognition to fuck with people. By the way, hi, I'm promoting myself to being the archvillain for this installment of the franchise because I say so."

Peter Ludlow has a snazzy cap and likes to collect dinosaurs. He gathers together a failtastic team of sub-villains, such as this lazy drunk guy who never does anything, a racist Mexican stereotype, and The Goddamn Pete Postlethwaite. They go to this island to like, collect dinosaurs and shit. They collect a bunch of dinosaurs but Peter Ludlow still isn't happy because his collection will never be complete without a T-Rex.

Meanwhile! The Motherfucking Velociraptors are all like, "AW HELL NO, we're supposed to be the main villains in this franchise!" And they are pissed at Peter Ludlow and his stupid team and his stupid plan to collect dinosaurs.

Meanwhile! The Goddamn Pete Postlethwaite captures a baby T-Rex and decides to truss it up in bondage because Peter Ludlow is really after the Big Daddy T-Rex and he thinks that capturing and torturing its baby is a TOTALLY GOOD IDEA in terms of having bait to lure a Big Daddy T-Rex into a trap and is absolutely not going to backfire on him at all. Nope. Not at all.

Meanwhile! The team of plucky heroes dicks around on the island for forty-five minutes into the movie, taking pictures of dinosaurs and acting sort of unconcerned about Peter Ludlow's team on one side of the island and the velociraptors on the other side of the island. Also, Vince Vaughn is an ecoterrorist. WTF. Vince Vaughn is in this movie?! Awesome.

So then the velociraptors get pissed off and eat Peter Ludlow's team. But Peter Ludlow survives despite being a complete idiot who does absolutely nothing because his snazzy cap clearly has mysterious anti-velociraptor powers. Then The Goddamn Pete Postlethwaite actually DOES manage to capture Big Daddy T-Rex, and Peter Ludlow is all like "YAY NOW MY COLLECTION IS COMPLETE" but The Goddamn Pete Postlethwaite is all like "I am dead inside because velociraptors ate my partner" and then he makes the :( face. So Peter Ludlow is like, "Yeah, I know, everybody on my team is gay for each other, kinda funny how that works out."

So then the heroes actually decide to DO SOMETHING to save the baby T-Rex but by then it's too late, Peter Ludlow is back in San Diego and some serious shit is about to hit the fan. At first the baby T-Rex is basically sitting around and bein' all in bondage and doing nothing, but then the baby T-Rex gets thrown into the hold of a transport ship and GOES APESHIT but in a kind of adorable baby T-Rex-ish way. Peter Ludlow is all like "OH NOES MY COLLECTION" and tries to get the baby T-Rex back in bondage, but all of a sudden HOLY SHIT BIG DADDY T-REX IS THERE and since Peter Ludlow took off his snazzy cap he has no more powers so then he gets OM NOM NOM'd by both of the T-Rexes.

Then Baby T-Rex and Big Daddy T-Rex go home to their island and live happily ever after, ruling all of the other dinosaurs with ruthless fascist brutality and killing anyone or anything that fucks with the natural order of their island. Meanwhile, the Motherfucking Velociraptors are all like "FUCK YEAH WE TOLD YOU WE'RE THE REAL VILLAINS IN THIS FRANCHISE" and start gearing up for Jurassic Park III.

So, in short: This is why The Lost World is exactly like the Noah arc of Soul Eater, except that Soul Eater substitutes Lovecraftian Elder Gods for dinosaurs and Medusa for all of those velociraptors.

The end.

holy fuck.

[nenena.livejournal.com]

ikr?

[alznthlay.livejournal.com]

Hah, and now it all makes sense!

[nenena.livejournal.com]

Peter Ludlow is so directly comparable to Noah in so many ways that it's kind of frightening.

[sno-oki.livejournal.com]

If the snazzy cap gave Ludlow powers to stay alive...*makes a dive for Noah's cap*

The similarities are striking to say the least. O_O

[mangaholic.livejournal.com]

I will SO totaly lmao if this happens.

[nenena.livejournal.com]

It's the snazzy cap that makes the case, really.

[mangaholic.livejournal.com]

HOLYSH*T it's like reading soul eater with other names!

so maybe, maaaaybe we just know how this arc will end ... ?

[nenena.livejournal.com]

With truck-throwing and OM NOM NOM, of course. ;)

[kyrafawxe.livejournal.com]

*claps* Brava. Brava.

Thanks for making my day.

[nenena.livejournal.com]

(*bows*) I only aim to amuse.

[wodalzz.livejournal.com]

Nenena, you must have a very strange image of Noah by now, he has the voice of that shivermytimbersman, think he could be really stupid by not using the brew for a long time and other stuff, and now he's like Peter Ludlow.(It's all just a guess I don't know what you actually think of Noah now)

And I remember from a recap of yours that you guessed that Noah's base was in San Diego :p

How is it with finding raws by the way?

[nenena.livejournal.com]

No raws yet, but I'm keeping my eyes open!

[meni-tan.livejournal.com]

"No raws yet"
I was wondering about that because Fullmetal Alchemist came out (super damn fast!)
and I haven't heard anything out Soul Eater yet

[nenena.livejournal.com]

Er, SE scanslation was out days ago. (Check Google.)

Somebody got a leak four days before GanGan went on sale. Binktopia had the chapter out in English before it was even published in Japan. Unfortunately, Binktopia doesn't share their raws, so there's no raw available yet. But the scanslation is already out.

[meni-tan.livejournal.com]

wow really? (goes to magical Google)

"Somebody got a leak four days before GanGan went on sale"
who even does this?

[nenena.livejournal.com]

Sometimes an employee in the publishing company leaks early scans to Japanese sharing networks and then foreigners on the same networks can snag them. And sometimes magazines just go on sale early in some regions in Japan. (When I lived in Nagoya, there was a particular Heiando bookstore that always got magazines two or three days earlier than the official release date. It was awesome. Then when I lived in Nagano-ken I could never, ever find a bookstore that got anything early. The same was true in Tokyo. To this day I still wonder why that one store in Nagoya was able to get things early every month. It baffles me.)

[meni-tan.livejournal.com]

oh, see I learned something new!

(for some reason I was thinking it was like the "Harry Potter leak" where everyone acted like they just leaked important government info)

[lost-angelwings.livejournal.com]

awww :3

[nenena.livejournal.com]

He's so kyoooooot!

[lost-angelwings.livejournal.com]

yus! :3

on an unrelated note.. did you see my sketch of bunny justice? :o

[nenena.livejournal.com]

I did, and I love it! The little bunny ears on her belt buckle are the perfect touch. I love how athletic and strong and kick-ass she looks, but the bunny motif still makes her cute. :)

[hydok.livejournal.com]

then he makes the :( face
Are you sure it's not the :< face?

You and anything to do with SE always makes my day wonderful.

[nenena.livejournal.com]

Are you sure it's not the :< face?

I don't think that Pete Postlethwaite is physically capable of making that face. His mouth doesn't work like that.

You and anything to do with SE always makes my day wonderful.

Thank you! :)

[meni-tan.livejournal.com]

lol! love it!
(it also make you wonder if Noah is bald under that cap)

[nenena.livejournal.com]

Now that you mention it, I kind of do wonder if Noah is hiding a bald spot. I mean, Peter Ludlow was the same way - he had visible hair when he was wearing his snazzy cap, but as soon as he took off the snazzy cap it was like HELLO BALD SPOT.

[meni-tan.livejournal.com]

lol
that gave me a thought which lead to this
(http://myuniques.blogspot.com/2010/05/if-noah-was-bald.html)

[nenena.livejournal.com]

lol, that's awesome!!

[meni-tan.livejournal.com]

now it makes me wonder what's REALLY under the hat!
(moe-hock? cat ears? anther hat? mooore belts? mini-waffles?)

[corinn.livejournal.com]

Whooooooa.

...Now I'm picturing Stein saying, "Daddy's veeery angry" while smoking and giving one of his insane grins.
