In Response To: Hey, Frankie? (Riceatron)


: Who so Japanese?
: I'm serious.

: In The Babysitter, the Forerunner objects were LOLJAPAN and the suits that
: the Elites were wearing at the end were LOLSAMURAI and the Prophet was
: even LOLSHINTO MONK

: Why?

: In Duel we see Fal in LOLCASUAL SAMURAI and the Boatman was even
: LOLHERMIT-SAN

: We already have information and images about how stuff works, hell, we
: already know what Sangheili stuff looks like based on the Heretics in Halo
: 2
: Stuffs all Red and Orange.

: So, why so Japanese

These two episodes contain by far the most Far East Asian tropes. Their airing order is a coincidence - outside of the fact that we wanted to be close to the ODST launch with Babysitter. And as has been hinted before, the "Japanese" architecture is being called out in Babysitter, but not the Greco-Roman stuff. It's a plot point unconnected with the fact that they're made in Japan.

Package, which is next and Origins Part I, contain zero Japanese themes. Origins Part II has a Japanese person in it, who's name you know and is already a part of the universe.

                       I left out the "the", for that reason. *NM*gunluva 11/23/09 4:30 p.m.
                             I got that impression, but close enough *NM*Silent Knight 11/24/09 7:58 a.m.
