I know you put the spoiler warning on and all, but the spoiler you still listed can still be read from the search screen. Just letting you know.
This scene is really great. I heard that the English dub was really well done and this scene supports that statement a lot. I should rewatch the show in English some day.
Elsa is such a sad case. You can't blame her though things would have been fine if Lauro wasn't a cold hearted bastard. If she only had a better handler.
this is the best dub i EVER heard of any anime!!! it's simply amazing, just like each of the gunslinger girls... this anime is so sad and beautiful :'(
its sad thoe i mean elsa should have had more respet from laruo and she envyed herietta but then again its sorta like marco and angelica but she wouldnt kill her self

I was pissed when Elsa died. She looked like one of the coolest gunslinger girls, but she just gets killed off instantly. I rather them kill off Heneretta! If they killed off Triela, I woulda been done.
You can't really blame Lauro; like Jose said, he was just an ordinary guy who took on a job. Don't forget, Lauro was an intelligence agent/black ops officer; they're not really known for their kind dispositions. A lot of guys in his line of work would be a little creeped out by all the affection these little child assassins heap upon their handlers. He just didn't know how to handle it.
Elsa Only Killed herself Because Lauro was not Treating her like a Sister He used her only as a TOol for money gain, He didnt Care for her feels or Life, he Only needed the Money cause it Brought him thing he Never had without her
Dont read this Dx SORRY!My name is Kiki, and i was raped before i died.I use to enjoy pain and now i inflict it upon people.I was tortured and raped untill i could no longer breathe.Those meanies now suffer and die, and those who do not repost this to 5 videos will die too. i hate this 2 but i believe At the strike of 12AM, those who did not repost this will die a horrible death after seeing a bloody face covered with long black hair. Those who repost this will receive a kiss from their crush
This is why they should have kept a thorough and up to date psych evaluation on all the agents. Even Jean said, after this incident, that the system still needs some tweaking because of hazards like this. If the findings from the investigation got out, they'd likely shut their branch down.
I used to have the same issue, but belive me, it's a practise thing. I had a lot of difficulty empathising with the voices when I first started watching it in Japanese, but within a few series, it starts becoming very obvious.
Comedy/light hearted series are best, they tend to be a bit more obvious about that sort of stuff.
And of course often enough the English dub is very flat, due to either poor VA selection, or bad translation, etc.
@Kari166 watch code geass with subs and the later episodes Lelouch's voice and CCs will slowly come to blow your mind, plus have you even LISTENED to the difference in Light's death speech in Death Note...versus the English one...what acting
@semjaavria, yes, I have watched both versions of Death Note, Code Geass isn't for me. I'm sorry, but I just don't hear the emotion in the original dub. :P
That's because their language isn't made to present emotion, but with some practice listening, you'll recognize the emotions in their language easily.
Henrietta:"What would happen if you loved someone? Loved them with all your heart like you never thought you could...but you realize one day that they will never EVER fell that way for you?"
[Flashback scene with Elsa]
Henrietta:"If it were me...I would kill that person...and then...I would do this!" *Grabs gun,points it toward her eye*
[Scene switches back and forth from flashback to present]
Henrietta:"You can calm down now I wouldn't shoot...How can I kill myself while you're this wonderful Jose? You know no one has ever been this good to me"
God I love this scene and episode...One of the BEST scenes in the first season PERIOD.
this is the best anime (and manga) ever! This is the best episode of Gunslinger Girl. I kinda feel sorry for Elsa because I mean she's just a little girl (I thienk she's 12) I also feel sorry for Henrietta because in the episode where they first interduce Elsa, Henrietta tried to reach out to her and she told her all this stuff about how they only have thier Handlers and she she really hurt Henrietta's feelings. I mean she's only 8, has to go hurting her like that. I hated Elsa after that.
That's easy enough to say when you're not suddenly put in charge of a dying little girl who you have to psychologically manipulate into being a murderer.
It's called 'clinical detachment'. I don't think it's any worse than pretending to care, all of the handlers are morally bankrupt.
That's debateable, since the only way she's really better off is that she isn't dead. She seems happy because she has nothing either in the present or in her future and a few crumbs of kindness seem like a big deal in that situation.
Not killing herself doesn't really make her less messed up.
She's messed up, sure, but the relationship that Jose and Henrietta have is a lot more open and supportive. Elsa had nothing of the sort.
And aside from anything else, she seems happy because the human that she's been wired to love seems to reciprocate her affection, at least on some level.
>relationship that Jose and Henrietta have is a lot more open and supportive.
I think you mean 'less overtly manipulative.'
>And aside from anything else, she seems happy because the human that she's been wired to love seems to reciprocate her affection, at least on some level.
Jose's never presented as manipulative, Or abusive. He's also shown as being against heavy conditioning, and I belive he gets into an argument with one of the others over that issue.
"She seems happy because she has nothing either in the present or in her future and a few crumbs of kindness seem like a big deal in that situation.".
This is never really dealt with in the show. Her thoughts about the future, and her relative place in things isn't dealt with either. You're guessing.
>Jose's never presented as manipulative, Or abusive
No, conditioning a child to kill is neither of those things. You're totally right, my bad.
Stabbing someone gently while apologising doesn't make you less of a murderer.
>This is never really dealt with in the show etc
Extrapolating is not guessing. It's entirely reasonable to make that statement you quoted from observation. Disagreeing for no reason, as you're doing, is guessing.
He wasn't the one responsible for any of that. He just took the job afterwards. He's not a controller, nor the doctors that performed the procedures.
You have no observations to strongly back that up. You've put foward a very strongly worded statement over very nebulous evidence. She's never expressed any angst over her future, or past, or how that Jose is the single spec of light in her life. It's a possibility, but there's really no evidence from the shown to say that it's definitive.
Presumably you think getting paid removes moral considerations from an action.
>Pompous words.
If you're going to try to turn this into a logical debate, it would be smart to not start with a strawman of my position. Unless you think there's all this Cool Stuff she gets to do offscreen that we never see?
The song's called Desperazione,1 of my most favorite songs on the Gunslinger Girl OST.Right next to Tema I,II,III,IV,V and VI...Basically,I love all versions of Tema and this song.
now if you started reading this dont stop its really scarey!ok send this to five other videos in 143 minutes.When you are done press F6 and your crushes name will apear on the screen in big letters this is weird because it does work.If you break this chance you wont have a crush in the next five years
I think this has a much bigger impact in the English than in the Japanese. I love this scene. I love the way Henrietta says: "I would kill that person... and then... I would do this!" The voice acting in GSG is amazing!
LOL see what happens when you don't love your cyborgs as much as they love you? THAT'S LOVE FOR YA!Elsa shooting Lauro for not loving her back is like a chick telling Hannibal Lector to go fuck himself,LMAO.
