C&C - Casshern Sins - "The Paradise of Lost Hope" [10/13]

[macattack]

The final arc continues this week, and it looks like things are going to get even more bleak. We lost our first reoccurring character last week with the death of Dune. Who falls next?

Last time on Casshern Sins:

Spoiler:

Dune is found by Luna and his true face, obscured for so long, is finally revealed, and he recovers his memories in the process. Casshern and his party find Luna as well, only to slowly discern that something is wrong. One of the robots that Luna healed is beaten to death in front of Casshern's eyes, and when a bandit party assaults Luna's city of robots and humans desiring healing, Dune steps in. Dune is badly wounded, and Luna refuses to heal him, saying Dune is too far gone. Dune dies, and Casshern and Lyuze wonder why Luna's personality and outlook on life has changed. Casshern moves to confront Luna on whether Luna's current position is going to actually benefit the world. Meanwhile, a spy approaches Leda and informs her that they have found Luna's location . . .

Previously on Casshern Sins:



Every time I look in your eyes I see Saint Peter wave.
Dig My Grave!

[Kitschensyngk]

Last time: Here comes the Sun, and I say it's all wrong.

[Bernkastel]

Last time? "Dune . . . Dune . . . Duuuuuune,"

[JShaggy]

Last time: Luna is not who you think she is.

[Kitschensyngk]

"Ewww, these flowers are, like, all GRODY and junk."

"I can, like, save you from, like, the Ruin, you know? Duhh."

"I have answered the calls of those who have come here, and granted all their wishes."
I'm guessing she preferred the ones with good health insurance who didn't have a pre-existing condition.

[Nobodyman]

Luna, you are the reason people hate kids.

Well, you and Jake Lloyd.

[Gold Starz]

Less than 5 minutes in and Casshern's already calling Luna out. Starting off good.

[animePWNS]

Last time: We saw the Dark Side of the Sun Called Moon.

[Kitschensyngk]

"You're kinda cute. Wanna, like, be my new BF?"

[Nobodyman]

Wow, I think that was the longest opening to date.

Okay, I'll say it. Why is Luna wearing that Gatchaman helmet?

Hello again, Dio.

[Gold Starz]

Wow Luna, you want to replace someone who had undying devotion to you with someone who tried to/did kill you and you tell them about like a day after said person without undying devotion dies? You are a horrible person.

[JShaggy]

Ringo's not feeling too good right now.

[Kitschensyngk]

Yes, Ringo, sometimes in life you just have to accept disappointment.

Well, these guys look like a fun bunch.

[animePWNS]

What is Chiatzou doing here?

[Bernkastel]

That kid looks like he could be one of those farmers from Samurai 7.

[Hypeathon]

Da ffffffffffffff...?

[Gold Starz]

You know you're a horrible person when people who have trekked the world looking for you want to get away from you after only a day.

[Nobodyman]

I think this is what happened to Disney Land after the ruin.

So if you get blessed by Luna, you live in a depraved amusement park, jump off buildings repeatedly, and stacks piles of colored rocks, only to knock them back down? Um.....I'll take the ruin, thanks.

[Kitschensyngk]

Whoa, it's like Michael Jackson had a kid with that rain sprite from XXXHoLIC.

Stop cracking like that. I was just starting to like you.
