treatment Posted August 27, 2003 Share Posted August 27, 2003 welp! Got home and found Maho-2 r1-package waiting for me. Damn usps for delaying it since I know they had it in since last week, but didnt deliver for some odd reason. Anyway, here's what the package-contains: It doesn't contain those gnarly-kewl character mini-standups stuff like the season-1 r1-packages were including. Well, just an fyi to mahoro fanboyz. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treatment Posted August 27, 2003 Author Share Posted August 27, 2003 (edited) Ok. I absolutely adore the japanese-dubbing on Mahoromatic and I've basically finished Maho-2 already some months ago. Nevertheless, since this is a Region-1 release and it's been a long time since I listened to the english-dubs of Mahoro.... This is the first time I'm watching Season-2 in it's english-dubs and it's kinda meh-to-ok quality, although it's an all-star bandai/pioneer voice-actors cast, imho. Oh, uhh, they also kinda screwed up the pronounciation of the "Minawa" name, i.e. Mee-nawah instead of Mi-na-wah. I need to brush up on the english-va names, but I did recognized a few english-vocals and presented here in their familiar anime-titles characters: -- Rem/Shinobu as Mahoro -- Keitaro Urashima as Suguru -- Spike Speigel as Ryuga sensei -- Faye Valentine as Saori sensei -- Minoru Kokubunji as the boy-android Feldrance. I haven't figure out who the english-vocals on Minawa, yet, tho it's at the tip of my tongue right now. ---- Oh, uhh, yeah. Did I mention Season-2 is very heavy on fan-service compared to Season-1? And it's not just Mahoro's? hehehe +AF4AXwBe- +AF4AXwBe- +AF4AXwBe- Edited August 27, 2003 by treatment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yohsho Posted August 27, 2003 Share Posted August 27, 2003 They have an entire "boob" episode in S2. Heck most of the series is like boob envy between Mahoro and Shijikyou Sensei. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightbat Posted December 2, 2003 Share Posted December 2, 2003 Talking about me digging up old graves ****warning: may contain Spoilers Press your browsers "back" button NOW! **** Just finished watching Mahoro S2 was a great show for 13 Eps. but sorry, Ep. 14 thrashed it all after my eyes caught the progress bar on WMP I couldn't believe it was almost at the end not only a miserable, but dragging episode, dark, dim, cynical! nothing was resolved between Vesper, Saint and the Keepers, except why Slash killed Suguru's Grandfather Suguru was beyond recognition, there was nothing left of his original character expecting him to be the "sad" person he sometimes showed in previous eps Hey Mahoro was returned to him, but the situation it was almost like getting a replacement barbie "there you go a shiny new Mahoro (version 2.0)" crap,..if it was that easy, why wasn't Mahoro brought back 20 years earlier? sure as hell wouldn't have made him a copy of me but because of this he was just a cold apathic guy if he was killed then and there it would probably have been a better ending Sheesh, couldn't care less about him is it me or does Gainax have a thing for depressing endings anyway: Mahoro S1 was great! S2 is great as well, as long as you end it at ep 13 (Won't give you a happy ending, but at least a better one) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yohsho Posted December 2, 2003 Share Posted December 2, 2003 Hey if you want to realize how depressing Mahoromatic can be remember that after each ep it showed how much time mahoro had to live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightbat Posted December 2, 2003 Share Posted December 2, 2003 Yeah, but there was always hope she'd get a pair of new batteries at the end (saint-enemy-more advanced technology-peace-etc. you get the idea) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Posted December 3, 2003 Share Posted December 3, 2003 I'm actually afraid of the second season after reading about the ending, hopefully they'll do a movie once the manga's finished & follow that ending. Absolutely loved the first season though, especially the little Yamato parody of counting down her time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last Ep. might suck, but there are still 13 very good ones to watch Had i know about the ending beforehand I'd still would've watched it (sure would've been a lot less disappointed) And I recommend it and that movie idea sounds great, but there stil are no translations and my japanese is "rusty" <_< so I've no idea what the Manga is about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just know it's another case of a series being done before the manga's completed its run, so a rushed ending was put out. Here's a question though, did Pio...er genome...whatever the hell they're called, include the summer special in with the second season?
