More UY exposure

Post by Guest »

Attempting to further spread the love for UY I recently posted this entry onto a BBC webpage, which made editors pick the day it was added. It's not much really, just a short intro/review of the series to pique peoples interests in it.

Here it is if you would like to check it out.

If you find anything incorrect, let me know, I'll get it fixed.

Lord Hikiji is a human. An only one, but still. You've told that there are no humen there. 'xept that everything is fine.
Abayo!

Well, I didn't mention him being a human for a couple reasons. (hopefully my memory serves well and I'm not blowing smoke here)

One, Stan has said it was an error of judgement that he drew him as a human, and wouldn't have included any visuals of him if he could go back and do it over.

Second, Lord Hikiji most likely won't be making any direct appearences again, at least according to Stan.

Thrid, I don't want to get too detailed with the piece as I wanted to make people interested in the subject, a discussion of the "race" of Hikiji didn't strike me as a way to get them interested.

Fourth, for an Usagi neophyte it raises too many questions that really aren't that important, when they should be enjoying other aspects that are more vital and cooler than whether or not Hikiji is a human.
