		<description>rawrrrrrr! folks,

It&#039;s me, here to tantalize and annoy once again.  How&#039;s it going Rachel, is Zingor still around?

anyway, on to buisiness.

first off, thank you to mr. Dennison Uy for his nice little comment, but honestly, you give me too much credit. Just because i &quot;get&quot; this one, doesn&#039;t mean i&#039;ll be getting others.....knowledge only goes so far sometimes
still thanks Dennison....

as for Karas II? well, I must say, i was fairly surprised by how decent it was, definitely good enough to own (as far as i&#039;m concerned) and watch sometimes.

Watch them back to back {shudder} &quot;JOY!&quot;

anyhow i&#039;m rambling, 

i sincerely found &#039;revelation&quot; to be noteworthy, it lacks some of the more sensual aspects of the first, but in general is pleasing and intermediately entertaining. However, it is very flashy, and in some regards that upsets the equilibrium of the film, i know at certain parts i payed more attention to the art and cinematography than the actual story, i believe it&#039;s called &quot;zoning out&#039; or something alike. anyway, on to ratings

Karas:The Revelation

movie score 7/10
anime movie score 8/10

feel free to contradict, debate or otherwise debacle these

later,
Camuss111

&quot;The skies blossomed with crimson glow, ashes raining from the rift in the heavens, with his dying breath, Camuss breathed one phrase 

&quot;Jana, I love you.&quot;

and all was still as she cried.&quot;</description>

		<description>To any and all interested in the &lt;strong&gt;soundtrack for Karas: the Prophecy&lt;/strong&gt;, it&#039;s available at &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.amazon.com/Karas-Original-Soundtrack-Japanimation/dp/B000VAL0PS/ref=pd_bbs_1/102-5405552-6950568?ie=UTF8&amp;s=music&amp;qid=1191130514&amp;sr=1-1&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Amazon for $32.49.&lt;/a&gt;  It&#039;s an import so it&#039;s a bit pricey, but if you buy it used you&#039;ll save some cash.  Good luck and I hope that helps!</description>

		<description>@Dennison Uy, I was not hooked in at &lt;em&gt;all&lt;/em&gt; for the first part of Karas.  I don&#039;t believe it&#039;s my job to glean meaning from an anime by watching it multiple times; that&#039;s the studio&#039;s job to get the point across the first time.  Sticking with something means watching the entire series (which I did), not re-watching it over and over to eke out some sliver of sense.

I reviewed the&lt;strong&gt; first part of the six part OVA&lt;/strong&gt; (&lt;em&gt;not&lt;/em&gt; the first twenty minutes) in this review, and the first half did suck and was a waste of time. I watched&lt;a href=&quot;http://theanimeblog.com/2007/10/25/anime-review-karas-the-revelation/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt; Karas: The Revelation&lt;/a&gt;, and though that was better, it was too little too late. 

There are intelligent and noteworthy anime which are difficult to understand initially- Ghost in the Shell and Ergo Proxy to name two.  Watching both can be confusing and the concepts are high handed, but neither series takes what the viewer understands for granted.  I felt Karas did, and yes, that was pretentious.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;I actually enjoy reading the intelligent rebuttals to my reviews. Keep it up, itâ€™s what we call dialogâ€¦itâ€™s a good thing.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Rachel, but you ripping apart a 6-part OVA just by watching its first episode is not a good review, nor does using phrases like &quot;I do not give a shit&quot; to refer to characters in a story in your own review is what I would call, in your own words, a &quot;lazy and pretentious&quot; handing down of judgment.</description>

		<description>Rachel you really just don&#039;t get Karas, and I pity folks like Camus111 who obviously &quot;gets it&quot; but are being ignored by people who do not want to explore other possibilities, just like the people in Karas who are happy to dwell within their comfort zones and have forgotten that demons actually exist.

I do not understand how you have can judge a 6-part OVA based on a single episode, which is roughly 20 minutes of a 2-hour movie, where the goal is not to draw out the entire plot but to &quot;hook you in&quot;. Characters are just starting to be developed, and the conflict is just being introduced. Like you, I was confused in the first few episodes. I could not get what the hype as all about. This was supposed to be awesome? But I stuck through it and eventually everything made sense as more and more of the plot was revealed. Unlike Hollywood movies, Karas is not told in a linear fashion, so you really have to stick through more than just one episode in order to appreciate it. Cheers.</description>
