Very cool. The original post was Feb 20, 3 days before Ep. 20 was aired. This is hugely significant. Just to remind you, at the end of ep.19, we saw some unknown person gave the Big 3 the fake GN Drives. Kinue was shot in ep.20, confirmed dead in 21. Laguna died in ep.21. I won't detail the rights and wrongs here. But there are several remarkable examples of each. Here is an example of plain wrong: Sarches was ambushed en route after negotiation (with Laguna?) and shot (at?) Laguna from a stopped car (or at parking lot?) Another: Saji was told _at_the_funeral_ that Kinue was investigating Laguna. But overall, it's proven beyond a doubt that this source has privileged knowledge of plotlines at least 1 or 2 episodes ahead of broadcast, and probably will prove right to the end of season 1 (25 eps?) Still since some details are wrong or a little off, I will treat it with a big grain of salt. Speculation on the board (TW-dominated) is that one of the sources of the spoilers is an animator in mainland China. So that may explain why the spoilers are at the same time so right and so wrong. Outsourced animators draw the scenes, but they don't know the entire script, they did their thing without the vocie-acting (which is done in Japan after the animation is finished) and don't know how their work is edited. It's even possible they produce more scenes than being shown, as end up being cut afterward. So there are some factual errors, since they animated some scenes before the dialog/story/plot was finalized. Another spoiler (person) is releasing goodies on 2ch. He is supposing working in Sunrise. A third source of spoilage apparently is Newtype magazine. Oh some of the spoilage were "coded", it seems the spoiler doesn't want to get caught or something, so some people names were aliases that require guessing/interpreting. So another cause of errors. Having read some (mostly) true spoilers, I will now refrain from reading any spoilers until the episode is aired. Don't try to ask my logic, I always had read the synopsis before I watch the episode and I don't mind reading speculations on here. But this feels weird, I don't want to know who will die, who will kill who and who will rescue who, but with the knowledge that not all the details are accurate. I don't know how to deal with this... may be there should be two kinds of spoiler tags, one for episodes that are already aired, another for "true" spoilers. -- Dr. Core -------------------------------------------------- The Gundam Mailing List MK-II [email protected] Archives: http://www.gundam.com/gml Help: Email [EMAIL PROTECTED] with this in the BODY: help list
