PAASSSHHHHHHHHHH:

Animage

There’s a pinup of the 00 and Garazzo in Animage this month (FUCKING WANT)

Not much spoiler-ish information, but the conversations were interesting/funny.

Osgasawara cried when Patrick said he’d come to protect the Colonel, and Yoshino said
that Allelujah grew for the first time when he decided to protect Marie.

Comments from Sunrise’s PR department:

- Organizing human relations and determining where the most ill will is coming from, Setsuna and company’s primary job in the new year is finding out who they need to face.

- In the beginning, CB seemed like a monolithic [organization], they might experience betrayal and (dunno what this second thing means, literally it’s “first appearance + entering”) 

Concerning Setsuna:

- In 2009, for the first time Setsuna might accept another person (“open up to” might be better than accept, but I don’t know the precise meaning so take it as you will). If that happens, he’ll become increasingly at odds with the “One Man Army.” (lol @ how they reference MISSSSTA BUSHIDO there)

Concerning Allelujah and Marie:

- Marie is essentially a Supersoldier. She promised not to fight, but for example, if she were to stand up and fight with Allelujah for the first time, the first crisis of 2009, Ptolemy’s destruction, might be catastrophic. (not really 100% on this bit so don’t take it too seriously unless you can get someone else to confirm what it says)

Concerning Tieria:

- Tieria’s ‘elder brother’ (aniki, lol) reform is certainly felt. Making jokes he’s unaccustomed to making, it’s no mistake that this was something that came from Lockon, the sense is that he’s saying it for his own sake.  

Concerning Allelujah:

In episode 10, because of the influence on his quantum brainwaves, Allelujah might have unexpectedly caught sight of Hallelujah. It’s not certain if he came out or not. Everyone might have to continue hoping. (IF I SEE THAT かも ONE MORE TIME)

Concerning Lockon:

What Tieria told him about Ali is starting to sink in.Therefore, it won’t be odd when he finally comes to his senses. Rather, 2009 we can expect Neil and Lyle for the first time. (I think they mean we can expect flashbacks of them together)

(And if I see another word that starts with 初 I’m gonna scream.)

“New” Hallelujah:

If you don’t want to meet Hallelujah, being bathed in quantum brainwaves is okay. Still, I wonder if he’ll come out? (I’m sorry, I don’t really get it)

The Smirnov House:

(this sentence is weird) After things turn around, will/would Andrei be bullied by Allelujah? (seriously, wut)

Neil:

Neil is certainly dead, but he’s still in the OP a little bit, maybe they just want his shape to appear somehow. Even though it raises our hopes in vain… (something like that)

2009 G-Fest

- [They talked about] the timing of the end of the season. During the event [they asked?] what will become of Setsuna?
- Something about Lyle and Neil’s colors, I dunno what to make of the sentence in question.

Then talking about the Innovators and Anew, Patrick’s reintroduction. Other stuff included the Gadessa and Riian (Riian? what/who is that?)

Someone called Ayaka (written in katakana, not familiar with the name) giving love advice to Setsuna about Marina. This does not interest me so I’m skipping it.

One of the “teachings of the staff”:
Concerning Tieria’s breasts in episode 8, that was special makeup. (Now can everyone please shut up about it?)

Are the false GN-drives safe now? The ones used in weapons are bad. Their structure is fundamentally different from the original [GN-drives], no matter what they’ll never be completely ‘clean.’

Setsuna asks Miyano 5 questions.
Only a few caught my attention (<–author comment)

What do you think is the thing that changed most about CB?

Appearance-wise, Feldt. As far as Setsuna’s relationships are concerned, Tieira. Up until now, whenever Tieria talked to him, it always started with a warning (lol). But that naturally disappeared, now it’s normally become “What?”

And that’s it for Animage.

Pash

Pages 22-23 feature the “00 Love Forcast” (Ah, Pash…)
Also, spoilers and an article that bothers me in it’s strangeness. At any rate, Pash does have the distinction of having spoiled Lockon’s death after. (TELL ME MORE. NOW. WHAT DID THEY SPOIL THIS TIME?) 

Just the couples that stood out to me (<–author comment)

Setsuna and Marina: Mostly cloudy

Can love overcome their age difference? As time goes on they may not be walking the same path.

Allelujah and Marie: Clear skys

Ptolemy’s first love-love couple. Then something about two-people-not-wanting-to-be-seperated.

Sergei and Souma: Clear skys

Father and daughter who go beyond blood. {skipping the rest because I’m lazy and it’s not really important and I WANT SPOILER NOW}

Tieria and The Innovators: T-storms

{skipping again and the rest unless there’s something particularly intersting, same stuff we know/not relevant because it’s just the Pash writers talking about shit}

Lyle and ???: Foggy (lol, sheets)

Tieria and Lockon: Rain (for BAWWWWWWWW)

Patrick and Kati: Clear skys

Interview with Andrei’s VA; skipping SPOILERS. NOW.

GODDAMNIT WERE YOU LYING ABOUT THE SPOILERS? YOU, YOU DOUBLE ELEVEN! IS IT IN THE ANDREI INTERVIEW? IS IT?

Ooh there’s a poster of Ribbons dancing with Tieria in Pash this month.

ANDREI VA INTERVIEW:

He talks about his time in an all-boys school and reminisces about the old days. Because of Andrei’s influence, he’s started wearing army clothes. He’s really gotten into the role. 

- Concerning how Sergei let his mother die, he didn’t actually hear about it that way, but came to that conclusion on his own.

- About the scene in which Andrei looks at Louise in the glass at the party: “Stalker? Nooo~” he said harshly (lol).

- I’ve completely gotten into the role. During recording I even naturally go over to Saito, who’s playing Louise. But, when the sound director gave Saito the following advice, “Louise doesn’t really return Andrei’s feelings,” we did the scene where she turns [me] down. (I’m pretty sure that’s what that means) I was shocked and heartbroken (lol).

- One of the other actors said “Louise is jinx’d, whoever she opens up to dies. So be careful.”

- Something about his resentment toward Sergei disappearing on the battlefield FUCK YOU NONE OF THIS IS A SPOILER.

 

Sunrise Q&A about couples:

Setsuna and Marina:

I wonder if something will change if someone makes a move?

Lyle and the hands: (GODDAMN SHUT UP ABOUT THE FUCKING HANDS)

Whose are they? (YES WE KNOW ALREADY) First off, they are a woman’s, right? (LOLOLOL YES WE KNOW) Since Lyle’s love-deviation-value* seems to be high whatever happens, it won’t be strange. (*er, left it literal because I don’t really know what it means, I’m going to guess that they mean Lyle seems like the type who is easily influenced by love?)

Sumeragi and Billy:

A fighting scene. I wonder what will happen? (FUCK YOU PASH THATS NOT A SPOILER EITHER)

Kati and Patrick:

It’s nice that things are going well for them.

I’d/we’d like to try seeing them when things are going well. 

Tieria and the Innovators:

Conflict is brewing within Tieria, pay close attention to what Tieria thinks and how he acts. 

 

FUCKING LYING DOUBLE ELEVEENNNNNNNNNNNN (if it was in the fucking Love Forcast section I’m gonna kill someone)

Love Forcast again:

Tieria and the Innovators: Scattered T-Storms

Tied by the bonds of DNA. (THATS JUST REGENE YOU STUPID FUCKS)

The Innovators, which were born as Veda’s living terminals, are Tieria’s true form. They can share information with their quantum brainwaves, an existence that surpasses humans. (WHAT DID THAT HAVE TO DO WITH PAIRING ANALYSIS, PASH, WHAT?)

Lyle and ???: Fog

Will spring come for the new Lockon? (lol, now that’s more like it Pash)

With the ending’s mysterious woman? If she comes into contact with Lyle.

Does it imply that he’ll fall in love with someone? We hope it doesn’t end as a blighted romance, but… 

Tieria and Lockon: Rain

The ravine between Lyle and Neil

Tieria, who had been supported by Lockon’s spirit, is severely disturbed by Lyle’s introduction. Even though Tieria understands he’s a different person, does he see Neil’s face in Lyle’s?

 

Nothing even remotely useful in the other ones either. I give up. Unless the big spoiler was that Louise is going to reject Andrei I’m stumped.
