There are re-runs of "Wildes Kinderzimmer" on TV, which means one hour of cute animal babies 8D Dawwwwwwwww, kittens everywhere 8D And bunnies and dogs (but they're not that cute) and sometimes more rare animals like lizards, white hedgehogs and birds, but the kittens are still the best part 8D

Anyway.

ZOOM, have to fangirl Franz. Not FE Franz, "Die Räuber" Franz. I love his first monologue; it always makes me think and I find his sentiments interesting. He's cynical, manipulative, full of hate for his father and brother, pragmatic, not idealistic (Idealist can quickly go on my nerves. Not all, but some) and all in all he's a damn bastards who plans to get rid of his brother and father. But I still can sympathize with him; he was always ignored, compared to his brother and neglected. And it kinda reads like he was also bullied as a kid. I love the fact that he's not just a black/white character. I mean, Karl does have a good side as well, but he's also damn flawed (He's still an asshole). But Franz motivation is so... understandable. I dunno, he's a magnificent bastard 8D And I love them.

Also, I love villains. I mean, when reading "Pirate Latitudes" I was rooting for Cazalla and Bosquet (Not the other two, because they weren't as fun). Maybe I'm doing it wrong XD

Ya know... I kinda want to read fic about Franz. But who would write fic for Friedrich Schiller´s "Die Räuber" XD I think I'll still look. Hope dies last. 8D

Back when I first read Lessing´s "Emilia Galloti" I always pictured Marinelli as Soren. Even though I didn't even know Soren back then. Colour me surprised when I suddenly noticed that THEY TOTALLY LOOK ALIKE 8D It made re-reading it more funny XD And it does kinda, in a way fit? Ffffffff

Watching more Utena now...

Ugh, Wakaba. Your sight still manages to piss me off every time. I just hate characters like her. It creeps me out.

I still want to pet Miki. And I still want a pet Valter.

Still don't like Zelos or Valtome. But Miki is adorbs. Zelos is a creeper, btw.

Btw, something that I noticed early; Utena´s hair cut really looks like Eirika´s. But Utena is nothing like Eirika (and Eirika is more awesome), so she didn't get her name. But Utena´s uniform would look BEAUTIFUL on Eirika. Oh yes.

Sorry, Zelos, totally not buying the story that you are the prince. Besides, you start to annoy me as well. >:/

Rofl, I still love the intermission ladies. Willhem Tell, oh lawd. I had to read that in grade... 7, 8 or 9, I think. I can't really remember. I think I disliked Tell. But, what a surprise, I liked his family XD And in an exam we had to write a letter as one of the characters from the story and I chose Tell´s wife. I got an A. It was fun~ Hmhm, I think I also kinda liked the villain and found his death kinda boring. I want my villains to have interesting deaths.
Hm, I was never a big Schiller fan. I disliked "Die Räuber"  at first because I hated Karl, such a spoilt idiot. I immediately liked Franz and, honestly, I was rooting for him all the time. Karl was ugh. I mean, you get a letter from your father, who disowns you out of the blue and you never question it and just become a criminal to "show him"? You're not a grown man studying at the university, you're a damn child! Yeah, I know your father spoilt you rotten, but that you have no trust, no ability to think for yourself and the stupidity to become a thief and murderer and whatnot just because you're pissed? OMG, so much hate. And yes, I know you were a child and so spoilt and got so much attention that you didn't notice that your brother was completely neglected. I can understand that. I would never fault you for that because you were also a child and probably didn't understand it. But that you still treat your brother so bad now that you're grown up, is disgusting. Oh goddamn, I still wish that Franz had won and taken over the estate (what he did to his father was understandable, but I don't condone it. It is still wrong no matter the reasons). Unnnnnnnnnn, Franz.

Edit: Aww, I don't have "Wilhelm Tell" :( But I do have "Die Räuber" 8D And it's full with notes XD Hm, happy reading.

Which reminds me; I kinda want to re-read Goethe´s "Faust" as well. I love "Faust". Mostly because of Mephistopheles, because he's a magnificent bastard. Though I'm still a bit miffed about the end of "Faust II". Oh well. Oh gawd, but now I have a flashback to "Die Leiden des jungen Werthers". OMG, so bad >< The most boring -- Okay, no cursing that early, plz. But I really had to fight through it and I hae no idea why people were so impressed by it that they killed themselves as well. Ugh. Anyway, I'm not a big fan of Goethe anyway.

Back to Utena; am I supposed to feel for Anthy or Utena at the end of the 11th episode? I just want Valter back. Besides, I now want to re-read "Dir Räuber" and "Wilhelm Tell". I hope I still have them >>


Also, Lucius and Etzel could totally be FTM trans*, couldn't they? At least Lucius´ body looks so feminine...

Rofl, somehow this post turned into a literature rant more than a comment on Utena XD
