If I ever read Paradise Lost, I am going to consider everyone else in the world to be a second-class citizen, and quite inferior to myself.
I am so much not an English major that never mind Paradise Lost -- if you've read anything by James Joyce, I am supremely impressed.
I quite like your conception of Hitome and Allen's relationship
And I quite like your determination to continue to spell her name "Hitome," despite the fact that it breaks the rules of every Japanese transliteration system out there. XD XD XD XD
I got the sense from the beginning of the series that Hitome and Van are supposed to be together
Because you'd seen the movie, you cheater!! XD XD XD XD!!!
I think when I first saw the series when I was younger, I would have maybe said that Hitomi loved Allen, but now I think yeah, it was at most a crush, made stronger by the fact that not only does he look (uncannily!) like Amano, but he was really only the second person to actually be nice to her after she landed on Gaea. I wonder how their relationship would have progressed had Hitomi stayed on Gaea. I imagine she and Allen would have stayed friends (and he would have laid off the birdcage comments?), but I don't know how often they actually would have seen each other. Like, I wonder how often Van and Allen would have seen each other after the end of the series. Because they do get along most of the time, but they're not friends, and they both have their political issues to deal with, I'd imagine.
(Ahahaha, I know this is fan fiction territory, shut up, I think it's interesting.)
Yeah, I don't think Hitomi's love for Van was just her emotions for Allen transferred over, I think it's a completely different thing. :p
Do Hitome and Allen even HAVE a relationship?
A romantic relationship? Well, I think they think they do, for a while. XD;;;
We need to watch this series again so I we can debate about it without me feeling like I don't know what the hell I'm talking about.
You may recall someone suggesting we watch this series again? Ahahahaha, I kid, I kid. But seriously, hurry up and write your essay so we can watch this series again!! XD!!!
I apologize in advance for how worthless this comment is.
