RP is crap, and I get no audio, and WMP crashes... gotta try this at
home 

<< I checked it out and work and halfway through it realized I'd have some 'splaining

the sound off, which might change things a little when I finally run it at home.

However, without sound, I can't tell if Mihoshi is upset because her
brother is making assumptions and forcing himself into the situations,
or she for some reason finds offense with the suggestion.  Hmmmm.

And Mihoshi gets rather vicious with the little automated message
carrier.  DAMN!  Hopefully this type of representation will advance her
from being just a stupid and cliched comic-foil that she has been for
the last 3 OVAs (and a little less so in the 6 OVAs previous to those).

<< Er...  I thought that was Mihoshi's brother that was pointing a gun at the little
robot messenger.  I guess I'll have to doublecheck that when I rewatch it.

I'm certain Seto knows what and who the cute little furry girl is, and
besides EVERYONE is fodder for Seto's manipulations, she probably
always graceful to those she isn't about to obliterate, or manipulate
in a more obvious fashion.

<< Rule #1 - don't upset the battleship. ^_^;;

No matter how many people are involved on a melee level, Ryoko is
actually bleeding...?  WTF?  I would normally expect this from large
weapons hits, like something fired from at least a GP scout ship or a
minor generation tree.  And, once again, she's UGLY.  With the
exception of SD images, Ryoko looked quite enticing even in battle,
during the first 2 OVAs (and the first TV series).

<< First thought that crossed my mind was that we're getting more "Ryoko the wimp"
scenes.  I sure hope not.  iirc, one of the brief shots seemed to focus on her wrist
- I'm wondering if she's lost her gem again.
