Someone explained to me that Buffy is shoujo anime, only live-action.
-- Ken Hite, paraphrased, from his latest Out of the Box column

Yeah, I can see it. Which is a bit scary.
Just don't ask me to envision Sarah M Gellar in cavalry jacket and petticoats. I don't think my, er, heart could take it.

Great, now I keep picturing Bunny in a fuku, and Fa'ran saying "HA! HA! Now I will destroy Hellspawn! HA! HA!"
BTW... could you please post the URL for the column?
PLZKTHANKS?

Given the characters I assume you're referencing, I think not picturing Willow in said outfit would be the task of the day.

Hmmm... I wonder if Ken has an LJ account?

I believe he's princeofcairo, from comments on Bruce's.

He is... excellent...

Nah, I think Geller and Hannigan (sp?) are cute, but that's as far as it goes, at least for me.

I'll have to chime in on his commentary on the rules re romance, etc. I know a game that included those.

Buffy is...

... Sailor Moon. Whedon is/was a huge Sailor Moon fan. There are several explicit steals/references in the early seasons.

Certainly explains the strong Tuxedo Mask vibe I get off first-season Angel (character, not series).

Hmmm...
I guess that makes Cordy Sailor Bitch.
more seriously... later on she has visions... IIRC, wears lots of red... hmmm...

Really, I should have seen this a lot earlier. I'm going to back away from this before my geekons destroy my terminal.

[wonders]Should I loan naudiz my copy of the Sailor Moon RPG so she can get a better look at the original source material?[/wonder]

So, now I'm wondering, did Whedon play Traveller?
