I suppose we’ll then finally be treated to the origins of the Geass order, the Sword of Akasha, and all those strange mysteries in Code Geass, from an beach paradise, eh? Hot stuff, that’s for sure…

@A20-man: Hmm, not really environmental-conservation. Just another impending natural disaster several Ice Ages ago, lol. But I wouldn’t be surprised if “Atlantis” comprised of two founding cities, one in the Mediterrean and another in the Antarctic. A sort of “Atlantis Solar” and an “Atlantis Lunar”. And I wouldn’t be surprised if the discovery of the “Original Code” sparked an ancient civil war which triggered the acceleration of the “Global Winter”. Then a few-dozen millenia later, “Code Geass” comes along, lol.

I remember seeing an old documentary once about this theory that Atlantis was actually an ancient city somewhere in the Mediterranean region. Haha, your 'Code Atlantis' sounds a lot like some sort of environmental-conservation story. So after wrecking the planet, and the planet blowing up as punishment, the third season is about making things nice again? Sounds fun:) .-= aprilius20´s last blog > Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince: How Harry Lost his Lobster =-.

@A20-man: Ahh, while myths and legends like King Arthur and unicorns tend to tease the imagination, there always seems to be a nagging seed of truth to them. Atlantis included. Some of the more credible theories point to an Atlantis along the edges of the Antarctic Circle, a few Ice-Age eras ago, when the polar ice caps were receded in a more globally-warmed era. Consequently, today, it could be buried beneath miles of globally-cooled polar ice. Personally, I don’t think it’d reveal any advanced cyber-technology, but perhaps a Romanesque copper- or iron-age, reminiscent of our own Ancient Roman period millenia later. Followed by their own massive Mt. Vesuvian-scaled destruction, via inevitable polar cooling… Hmm, intriguing. Could be the seed of a new “Code Geass” prequel set against a pre-Ice Age Atlantis. “Code Atlantis” has a nice ring to it!

Where is Atlantis? Probably at the bottom of the ocean, if it even existed. Anyhow, Light can easily gather the funds to buy an island or two and rename it ‘Light’s playhouse’, if he wanted to. Atlantic City, eh? I’ve heard of it before… something about it being a seedy backwater town until the Olympics came to town, or something like that. Hmm, a bit far for me, but I guess I could get Rem to fly me there, haha. Beach paradise, eh? I’m not on very good terms with sunlight, so I’ll be needing a bunch of handmaidens with parasols, lol.

@Jem-chan: Ahh, I agree on all points. Quite enjoyable. Secondly, I don't exclusively prefer anime over live-action or vice-versa. Each version is a valid interpretation of the original manga. Thirdly, while the Misa figure isn't the highest style or quality, her laciness is quite irresistible. And lastly, Morte is exquisitely gorgeous. Sadly, I lost the original pre-sepia color photos back during a computer crash in October 2007. Maybe I'll do a reshoot sometime, lol. Oh yeah! My order did indeed come with that mini-manga pamphlet "Welcome to Himorogi". Nice little touch! As if the extraordinary cylindrical box wasn't enough! Again, I may need to do a reshoot eventually, hehe. ^_~

I thoroughly enjoyed the live action for Death Note. Usually, live action is generally not my thing, but the intense battle of wits really appealed to me in addition to the ever changing balance of justice and evil. I just don’t like that some people take the over hyped stance towards iconic anime series such as Death Note.

I’m a big fan of lacy stockings, too. I’m not a fan of that Misa figure, but I would definitely buy her stockings if I saw them at a store. That Toranoana Morte figure is just so gorgeous. I was so tempted to order it, but I had no confirmation as to whether or not it would come with a pamphlet and decided against it in the end. She’s so beautiful.
