Quote: THis thread is pointless bashing.the meere fact that there's a
"Bitch deserves to die" option is evidence of that.
That was mostly for kicks. ^^ I DID create the thread and my biased-opinion may have shown through. But it's not
just for bashing. That's why I put all those other options. And stated numerous times that it wasn't for just
people who didn't like her. And I also stated it was all my opinion on her. So really, other than having a title
that might attract people with a similar opinion as mine, it wasn't just meant for that. ^^ ooookay? I don't
feel like repeating myself on this, so the next time I'll just quote myself.
Quote: 1. Shin "killed" Meyrin. That was an order and ORDER not
Shinn suddenly deciding hey Im gonna kill Meyrin. It was a command from the higher ups t eliminate a TRAITOR. Secondly
after the incident it's obvious to everyone that it was killing Shinn that he had to and he was there to comfort
here.
As a couple they make sense as tehy were two people who have known each other for some time who have similar pain. They
are able to understand each otehr and that brings them closer together.
and they also show concerna nd compasion twoards each otehr. They worry for each otehr and they embrace each
other.
Perhaps using the word 'kill' or 'murder' is the wrong terms for it. I certainly already knew that
it was an order, like I believe I've stated more than enough times. But the fact is, orders or not, I do NOT see
anyone with a conscious hooking up with the guy who shot their sister out of the sky! It's ludacris. And they
haven't been close for long, like I've also stated. The writer herself (I don't remember her name) said
that Shinn was NOT CLOSE TO ANYONE on the minerva. His and Luna's relationship remained the same for 36 episodes (a
relationship that was obviously very platonic and comradic (is that a word?!) and then suddenly after the incident, Luna
puts the moves on Shinn.
If I were Shinn, I'd probably have kissed her back just like he did. For two reasons, guilt for what I'd done
and also because I'd be thinking of my sister. But I'd also wonder what the hell was wrong with this girl. ^^
But Shinn's immature and kinda stupid himself, so you know, I forgive the guy.
Similar pains of losing a sister? Well, then don't you think that even a kind, mature person would still be hurt to
look at the person who was ordered to kill their sister? Seriously, that excuse of them having similar pains and being
able to understand each other is bull. She got with him so quickly it was like she wasn't even upset about it
anymore. And they only start acting remotely affectionate towards each other once this has happened.
If they had hooked up later on, after speaking to each other about it and having time to THINK, then yeah, maybe I could
see it. But it wouldn't be a perfect couple. Not at all.
The Shinn and Lunamaria couple doesn't make sense. The circumstances DO NOT work. ::shakes head::
As for her being a good pilot, well yeah, she is a red coat. But uh, that shot she had on Djibril... ::shakes head:: And
I don't care if it was for the plot (since everything that happens is) it's just really hilarious that she
missed that. I suppose that's where I get it from, since it's the only time I remember Luna specifically in
battle. Other than that I didn't pay much attention to her. But I do believe Gaia was pushing her back, but I could
be wrong. ^^ (if you're referring to the fight at Junuis 7) I'd have to rewatch it to be sure though.
Quote: 3. Luna was quite mature. The proof off this is that she was able
to see Shinn wasnt at fault for what happend with Meyrin and not give into rage or hate.
No, no, no, Lunamaria is just a shallow character who jumped in Shinn's bed after he was order to kill her sister.
lol.
^^ I mean, she still could have not seen him at fault and NOT hooked up with him. I really believe that was what tipped
me off to not like her. It was sickening that she would do that. It was like spitting on Meyrin's memory, orders or
not.
And seriously, after overhearing that conversation between Athrun, Kira, Cagalli, and Milly, you'd think Lunamaria
would have been a hell of a lot more suspiscious than she was. Especially after both Athrun and Meyrin were labeled
traitors. I dunno, you'd think she'd have a little more faith in her sister and not say something so
ridiculous as 'she was brainwashed'. ::laughs:: It would have been awesome if Luna had went to find out the
truth. Then she'd have been cool as hell.
Because really, being immature or even an attention whore does not bother me that much and most of the time I can
overlook stuff like that with characters. But hooking up with Shinn right after that happened? No. that's not cool
at all. It ruined her character and made all of her faults stand out so brightly to me.
Quote: 4. Attention Whore. there's a difference between attention
whore and beeing brave enough to talk to the oerson ou have a crush on. If the others cant get attention from Athrun
it's there own fault for not acting.
First thing. There's nothing wrong with talking to Athrun! In fact, at first I thought she was nice to him. But
then, her attitude with Meer was just... immature. ^^ Meer was supposed to be his fiance and I believe that means a heck
of a lot more than some crush on a war hero... but Lunamaria even said she'd just watch her step when
"lacus-sama' was around to Athrun. And that little comment about him slapping women too.... ::shakes head::
She was upset, sure, but showing that irrational jealousy so openly is an example of an immature little girl. But
anyway, the word attention whore just popped into my head when I saw one of those ridiculous poses of Lunamaria. Her ass
was showing and I wondered how come Stellar's ass never showed, despite wearing the same exact style of skirt... oh
well. ^^
And then she jumps into that 'relationship' with Shinn directly after. ::shakes head::
Quote: The fact is Lunamaria is an excellent charecter. She is both very
brave and kind. She has shown compassion and concern on numerous occasions and her kindness is without
equal.
The fact? That's not a fact in my opinion. Wow you sound awfully arrogant. ::shakes head:: You're the second
Luna fan I've come into contact with that I've had to say that too. Really, in YOUR OPINION, Luna is
excellent, compassionate, yada, yada, read it above. But I certainly don't see that.
In my opinon, Luna was immature, cheerful, chattered endlessly about pointless things for the first half of the show,
then spent the second half with Shinn. Their scenes were cute, yeah, but there's no way that I could forget the
circumstances. ^^ She was brave though. ^^ I'll give you that. But her kindness is without equal? ::shakes head::
That's amusing. But for me, I think Lacus, Meyrin, Murrue, Milly, Cagalli, and Meer were all nicer than Lunamaria.
Sorry, I had to check your user info. Seems you're very new, like, only a couple hours. Interesting. ^^
Welcome to Minitokyo, I really hope I don't spoil your stay with this reply. ^^ <3
<3 Later.
EDIT ::::
Quote: You can blame the lack of development on her relation with Shinn to
Fukuda. He's the one that screwed an extremely interesting universe.
As for the character itself, Luna had much promises to be a big hit but she was overshadowed by Lacus, Cagalli, Meer and
yes her sister Meyrin.
Luna is an interesting character but under-utilized. But heck, I still like her cause of that mini skirt and over-knee
socks. XD
^_____^ I know that we can all blame that on the writers, but that is true for every show, know what I mean?
I really believe I could have liked her if she had just had more development and a better part in the show. But
we're talking about Lunamaria, the one that was portrayed, despite how good she might have been.
::shrugs::
Ah hah! I'd have thought she was hot too if she had had longer hair. And if her skirt hadn't been pink. All
those different shades of red just looks a little funky to me. (her hair, suit, and skirt) But she's certainly
cute. (though it doesn't say much since they're all cute to me. ^^) Thanks for your honest two cents,
hehe!
ANOTHER EDIT ::::
Quote: adn here's a point for teh AsuCag fans out there. Athrun
allegedly killed Kira too.
I see what you're trying to say here. But the circumstances are much different. For one, Cagalli was very upset and
confronted Athrun. And he cried. They came to their understanding on that. And at that time, she didn't know Kira
was her brother.
And then AFTER she found out Kira was alive was when Athrun and Cagalli's relationship really picked up and they
started acting more like a couple. Although I think they're couple also happened too quickly, but was much more
developed than Luna and Shinn and more likable. Actually, I adore Cagalli and Athrun together. But I also like
Athrun/Meyrin, because of Destiny. ^^ Wow, off topic here. ::bows head:: That's all.
