I concentrated on your negatives

When I broke up with you, I made myself empty. I ignored the feelings that I had for you so that I could be strong. Then I lied, trying to make myself believe that you were nothing good for me. Even though we were still friends, I treated you harshly. You asked me to see a school play with you and I refused, saying, "Why would I watch people I don't know in a play I don't care about with my ex girlfriend?" You asked to be driven home from school and I replied, "I'm not your boyfriend anymore, so I'm not obligated to go out of my way to save you a short walk." I refused to go out of my way to make you happy, and that stung you.

On top of that, I complained about you to other people. I said that you ran off on me with a lesbian. I told people that all you did with me was use my computer and have me do chores. I sighed that you never bothered to be intimate with me. I moaned that you would always yell at me or hit me. Good riddance, I claimed! But that claim was a lie to them and to myself, because they were exaggerated and partial truths. I refused to acknowledge the rest of what we had, of what I felt.

I can only imagine that you're doing the same to me now. You're trying as I did to leave us behind. You've pushed me away by not talking to me at all. You probably tell yourself and your acquaintances that I'm just a nutjob pervert and life is so much better without me. If you are saying that, I forgive you. I know just what it's like to think that it's best to paint our picture in ugly hues.

Kill la kill

Today, I finished watching an anime called Kill la Kill. I wasn't very interested in it when it debuted. It has strange animation and artstyle for an anime. I saw plenty of images on the internet of barely-covered women from the series, and you know I don't care for ecchi. Finally, the name just didn't catch me.

However, Kill la Kill is more than those elements. Men and women alike are shown in various levels of clothing, including none (though the body wasn't detailed). I came to appreciate the way the show looked. The name ended up being insignificant, though I eventually figured that "la" is meant to make the title sound more French; French phrases occasionally make their appearance in the dialogue. The anime has great lore, interesting plot, and, I'll admit, enticing eye candies. A tiny bit of the humor was not my thing, but it mostly got me smiling and laughing!

I think you'd like this one. Action, lore, comedy, hotness, all well-put into 24 episodes. The anime seems at first to be about familial avengement, exaggerated people, and clothing that grants powers. All the simple concepts are revealed to be part of a much thicker and more complex tapestry of plot! I don't really expect you to watch it, since you're so busy and anime isn't a priority, but I still think it would appeal to you!
