Bloody Dubbers!!

In the episode where the boys arrive in Southampton in season 1, Ray asks where the White Cliffs of Dover he's heard about. Kenny replies that they pasted them during the night.... HOW?! They came on the ship from America to the south of England. Dover is on the East coast, so unless they sailed all the way round Scotland they can't have pasted Dover!

Beyblades

I love the series for the characters. That's it. I know Beyblades are important for the series but in my mind a good story is made with good characters. I deem it a good story if I'm infatuated with a character or fancy one. Beyblade as well as Karin and Pokemon fit into both catagories.
I realise without the Beyblades the series has no storyline for characters to emerge from but I'm lost to the point of the technical side of them. I know what they do, about the main structure, BitBeasts, the game's rules, blading styles... but don't confuse me with the in depth bits!
This may explain why Kira Kira has no in depth Beyblade content. Venus G isn't a blade which is well known like Takao's etc, but then again I could just ASSUME like I always do. FYI, Kira Kira is a CHARACTER shrine thus its content is about the character.

Pairings

I reckon Beyblade should have pairing names like Pokemon does. You know, like 'Rocketshipping' (JessiexJames) and 'Pokeshipping' (AshxMisty). It'd be fun and creative! ... actually... I retract what I've just said. the '__shipping' pairing name format is apart of Pokemon fandom. It'd be wrong to spread the idea!
I stand by the creativeness of the names but each anime and manga should remain with it's own fandom.

Off Topic

I must recommend watching Tom & Jerry to you. I recently re-watched my VHS of my bumper collection and relived some memories of my childhood. I don't like slap stick comedy much but I've found myself laughing at it.
I've picked up on one thing I never did as a child. And that was the music. The classic T&J theme, the musical pieces in 'T&J in the Hollywood Bowl' and 'The Cat Concerto'. It's just amazing and genius.

Long live Tom & Jerry!
