Mikan Watch #21: On Your Mark
Maybe? You’d be forgiven for being unable to notice what I’m referring to here, so let me point it out.
Errr, yeah, perhaps this one is a bit of a stretch, but you can clearly make out the ã‚“, and that does kind of look like part of a ã‹ to the left of it. As such, I’m going to claim it, so there.
I’m not entirely sure what possessed me to pull out the Ghibli short films DVD – thanks to Youtube, it’s not like the only way to see On You Mark these days is as on this DVD or as part of a cinema screening of Whisper of the Heart (I’ve seen it both way – go me!). It’s not like there’s anything one the DVD which is worth seeing more than the once – I talked about it back when it came out, but to recap it’s mostly short commercials and some experimental music video thingies. It’s a curiosity, but not something I’ve actually pulled out and re-watched since I got it.
Infact, as I watched on in terror as the Disgaea anime promotional DVD, accidentally dislodged from my overcrowded shelves, plummeted horrifyingly onto a shelf of Gundam Seed *cough*Destiny*cough* and Negima figures, the sudden impulse to watch it seemed like a positively dreadful idea. Thankfully, whilst this caused a domino effect, sending the figures hurtling toward the ground, no lasting damage was done. Phew.
