Is a bishie really a bishie if it used to be a girl?

Impressions:

Maaaaaan. If the episode itself had been anything like the OP, I’d be on board. Sure, I’d still make fun of it for being fruitier than Carmen Miranda’s Hat Boutique, but I survived JCStaff’s ninja man-boy love affair escapades with only superficial wounds. Plus, this has the added bonus of the lead bishie apparently being the reincarnation of the girlfriend of one of the other protagonists. The potential for the jokes there is… well… it’s simply fantastic. Of course, I can’t keep all these bishies straight anyway, pun not intended. There are at least two or three now with longish black hair, and if the evil glasses one removed his glasses, I’m pretty sure I’d have him confused for the others too. Or maybe they just are all the same person and it’s the Sailor Moon thing where wearing slightly different clothing is enough to completely mask your identity.

In any case, there was absolutely none of the action that the OP promised this week. Instead, Sailor Uranus née Brunestud wandered around town for awhile, got a couple death threats from a guy who hates him because… Uranus tried to be nice to him… stopped a bully, and then got saved from one of the more inane plans I’ve seen. Apparently the villain can telekinetically drive trucks, create illusions, paralyze people, and watch you pee. One would think (most of) these skills could be combined in a more intelligent manner than luring Uranus into the street, paralyzing him, and then hitting him with a truck… and then assumably watching someone pee on him. Plus, why did he wait until the light changed… or honk the horn? "Watch out! I’m about to kill you!" I hope next week’s grand scheme involves feeding Uranus iron pellets and then chasing him with a giant magnet.

Well, so far it’s the most entertaining thing to write about today, not that that’s particularly laudable, or anywhere near what I would an endorsement of quality, but I imagine it’d make a great drinking game. If the action that the OP promises actually shows up next week, it would help things a lot. I guess we’ll have to wait until next week to see what the hell I’m going to do with my Sundays.
