Mental note: Reading RECBT chapters back-to-back is surreal, but...

by Mark Poa

 
...reading RECBT chapters back-to-back in reverse order while killing time at work is even more surreal. @_@ Plus, I had to keep from giggling too loud...

Some quick reviews:

Chapter 135: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack
Gaijin Dan Mastriani

-Gah, how many Ultraman references can you cram into this thing? ^^ I almost laughed out loud at the "...as if they had been held up by fishing wire, and somebody had suddenly let that fishing wire go" line when I realized that Heidern just collided with Ultraman. Plus, I had to do a quick Google search just to confirm a nagging suspicion on who Akio Fuji and Toshio Muramatsu were.
-FAVE ROCK FACT: "Rock Howard has red eyes, like a bunny."
-the Dr. Goenitz bit read like an old, albeit still funny, joke. ^^ Guess Austin powers references will still continue until the next movie.

On an outside note, Dan, did you ever see this one Ultraman movie where the Ultrahero has a human alter ego who's a gasoline station janitor, has a severe adverse reaction to getting dirty, and cannot execute the "Ultra-ray" until the very end? Most notable too for having the earth defense force be composed of the said gasoline station's attendants with a ship that CG's out of a billboard sign. I forgot the title though. ^^;

Chapter 134: "Green" Olives
MMK

-The day I read an MMK chapter and get all the references is a day that will change my life. ^^;
-I thought Green Olives referred to Green Leaves from the Yatta! song. :P Must have missed that SG episode... or they still haven't shown it here.
-What's up with Kyosuke anyway? Is that a commercial ref? A TV show? Arrggghhh! It's driving me nuts. ^^;
-The image of Heidern, with Mature and Vice, riding a roller-coaster going "WWHHHEEEEEEEEEE!!!". It's stuck in my head, damn you. ^^
-"He taught me to juggle... with electric feet!" Boy, wish I could hear that everyday. ^^

Chapter 133: Grandma Got Blown Away By Cruel Huntings
black dub

-I didn't enjoy the chapter as much as I wanted to. Maybe the it was just because I really liked the first scene with Bo Rai Cho that everything else paled in comparison. ^^
-dub, what did I tell you about making Britney Spear references?
-Poor Anita, what did she ever do to you? >
-Yeah, it's rough alright. But, there were giggles every now and then.
-Incidentally, what Christmas special was this spoofing? Or was this wholly original?


****

Hopefully, I'll be able to read through my backlog.

Heh. Get it? I'm reading them "back"-wards, and I just said "back"-lo--

...

Aww, just screw it.
