My spirit faints within

[flemmings]

I had the sudden urge to start finishing Angel Sanctuary (because there's at least five or six manga left to go, longer than some series) but when I looked to see where I left off and to find a familiar plot point... I couldn't. Apparently I've never seen any of this before. That means I have to re-read AS in its entirety. So, you know, laters.

Because the Onmyouji novels are much better anyway. Finished the story that Onmyouji 1 was largely based on, with chivalrous!Hiromasa being more generous than most western paladins ever were (possible exception: Let never a man a-wooing wend that lacketh thinges three/ A store of gold, an open heart, and full of charity) and now the plot-bunnies are raising snuffly noses from out the deep grasses around Seimei's house. I wait only for them to emerge. In time, all in good time.

You make me happy and I go to sleep with a cheerful optimism.

Especially as I've just looked up the origin of that quote. :)

Yeah well- Hiromasa goes King Henry one better, I think, but why is spoilery.

[incandescens]

Indeed, no spoilery. Thanks.

Is that the one with the lady with the firestand on her head? Will have to go and reread.

That's the one. Am going by Hiromasa's dialogue after they find her at her house. And *I* must go rewatch Onmyouji 1 to see if any of it made its way into the movie.
