...Sayo AMVs on Youtube!
Now, that would indicate "YAY! GOOD! HURRAH!" for Spotto, right?
WRONG.

And what is my argument that such a thing is bad? Is it something like: "Kazumi's not in em" or something?

WRONG AGAIN.

The problem with those OVER 9000!!! Sayo AMVs is that they're ALL from ONE BLOODY EPISODE. The one in the first anime, episode 19. Yes that episode was great and sad and blahblahblah whatever, but there's MORE TO SAYO than that one episode that isn't even canon! What about Negima!? Sayo? She looked ADORABLE in that incarnation! Manga Sayo? OAD Sayo? WHY JUST THE BLOODY SINGLE EPISODE!? And yes, all those AMVs are JUST about Sayo. Kazumi's obviously in em but in all the descriptions and titles and comments and everything it's SAYO! SAYO! SAYO! Without Kazumi, SAYO WOULD NOT BE THERE.

Sayo is not defined by one episode. In fact that episode Sayo was slightly OOC! She wasn't all "sadly happy" like some sappy children's show! Sayo was actually depressed! And in the manga depressed!Sayo managed to give herself enough confidence to go super saiyan scare everybody in the class and get noticed! She managed to get friends! She managed to get noticed and get friends! I mean I know Sayo isn't that much of an independent character but she DOES HAVE A BACKBONE believe or not! She's not Ako! She can do things on her own, and yes, Kazumi helps her! Negi helps her! Wonderful! Everybody is happy yayayay! Geez! This isn't the live action where everybody is emo and can't do ANYTHING without Negi! And then all these commentors are like: "We need moar Sayo AMVs! She's underrated!!!" Yes, we need more Sayo AMVs all about THE GODDAMNED SAME EPISODE. It's the same formula! Use sad episode with sad song and viola, an instantly popular AMV! I don't want to see episode 19 plastered everywhere either! I love the episode and I want to keep it fresh and prime but that's impossible because it's ALL OVER THE PLACE. These people are blind. Sayo is not underrated. She may not be overrated but she's definitely NOT underrated. Yes Sayo AMVs are nice, but use different episodes! Use episode 7 of Negima!? Sayo! Anything! Just stop overusing and killing such a good thing like episode 19! Most of the AMVs aren't even that good! It's just a bunch of scenes in one linear video without any special effects and some sappy sad song! Gah.

Yes, anyway...

Since this universe has so many characters, I have a "Top Six" character list that I always draw or write about. I'm sure you all know them already but for the slow it's obviously: Kazu, Sayo, Yuuna, Ako, Chiu, n' Kuu. Shockingly enough, my favourite character is underrated. Kazumi is VERY underrated. The only time she gets attention is when pedophiles from the chans see chibi-Kazu in some doujin or see her almost completely naked...like a little whore. Geh. Sayo, Yuuna, Ako, and Chisame are not. They're either somewhat or fairly popular characters. Ku Fei is another underrated character, and perhaps the most of all the so-called "main girls", which is sad.

Second, Sayo has a very boring character design (SHE'S KONOKA WITH AKO COLOURS) and probably the combination of Konoka and Ako's personality! If she wasn't a ghost who needed friends I probably never would have given a damn about her, but because she was a sad cute little lonely thing who got befriended/possiblyyuried by the most awesome person in existence, that is when I will notice someone like Sayo. P:

Third, Yuuna is fairly popular in Japan and probably gaining in the west, but why she's here is mostly because of Aoi-dono. Frankly in the beginning I loved five of these characters, Yuuna being the one left out. I did not give a single damn about this random basketball player who did not seem interesting whatsoever, so kudos to Aoi-dono for showing me the shine I did not see on such a wicked character. In fact I probably cared more about 20 or so other girls over her in the beginning. Whatta jump, Yuuna.

Fourth, Ako's always been up high. I did like her story with Nagi at first, and her voice. Her voice is adooorable, but no one else seems to notice it (huh). Tthe reason why I like Ako is probably because I can relate with her. I get carsick easily...I'm shy...I like soccer (but I don't play soccer that much anymore), while I do not want to become a nurse I have thought about becoming a doctor once (an UNATTAINABLE GOAL!!!) I wish I was in a band ^^;, I tend to be the quiet or normal one in the group but I have something quite different about me, and I don't often have a backbone/I'm kind of pathetic. Yes. Ako is awesomely pathetic like me!

Fifth, Chisame has always been there.

As for number six? Ku Fei's a lovely character. I do want to say that she doesn't have a very energetic or happy seiyuu. Hazuki looks like she's forcing herself to dance or sing at concerts...D: Totally the opposite of Jellophish. On the other hand, her live action actress is quite energetic, but that actress is....erh...yeah, nothing good for Ku Fei outside the fictional universe eh? It's saddening. D:

Now to end this entry, a little comic...
MAXMAN versus DOGGER:

Who will win? Who will triumph over the other? Will it be the Batman ripoff? Will it be the Spiderman ripoff? Will I have a Joker-inspired villain? Will I shut up and go to bed because I have to get up early!? WHO KNOWS:








Forgive me for the messiness, especially at the later pages...I started to rush P:
I think I did okay for the first page though. O:
(Btw the dude you may not recognize is Takao as CHICKEN)

Spotto is OFF TO BED!
