I just went out to get the paper, and there was an armadillo going across my front yard!
A real live armadillo, in clear daylight, running but not at anything near top speed. I've never had such a close look. For something that essentially looks like a giant bug-dog, they're CUTE.
I followed it around the house until it went under the back porch. There's an armadillo under my back porch! It might even survive around here, seeing how few cars we get. Whee~!

One Piece Movie 3.
Is that... SekiTomo? IS IT. SNAKEBOY. IS HE. HE MUST BE.
ETA. HE IS. Seki Tomokazu is facing off against Sanji.
Let me repeat that. Seki Tomokazu is facing off against Sanji.
i have no words
eta. Finished. Best movie ever.
No, that's a lie. The timing and allocation of the final battle was off and the moral was kind of trite and it didn't have quiiiiite the level of pacing characteristic of REAL Oda and three moves were reused from Movie 2 and it repeated flashbacks twice and the old bird's voice actor was mediocre (also gimmicky speech impediment didn't really work on that one.) It read like the work of an exceptionally good fanfic author who nevertheless has a little bit of a predilection for Zoro/Sanji.
None of this really matters in the face of SEKITOMO VS. SANJI. I'm just including it because the reviewer in me wins over the fangirl. Most of the time.
EEEEEE SEKITOMO.
Edit after rewatching: Y'know, either I've seen a lot of anime and it's just getting to me, or One Piece does a metric fuckton of homages and parodies. Sometimes simultaneously. ( Cut for a bit of blather: Spirited Away and Sailor Moon. )
Oh, god. So much love.
