IS FACTS 開発へのこだわり - Vol. 02

Last time, I commented about Houki Shinonono (篠ノ之箒) and the 100のヴィ学 of her. Guess I would just cancel my trip right now and instead I went British after I ate a pack of "Chocolatiest Ever" Bingo. It's truly a delightful treat.

The Brits have them all; the BBC, the Top Gear, The Stig, the Royal Couple, the King's Speech, the fancy accents, the Big Ben, Jeremy Clarkson bumped his head while drifting the MG XPower SV, James Bond, two Getaway titles (from The Getaway and The Getaway Black Monday), Harry and Paul, the Thames Television, and everything British. One thing they did have is...

The British representative cadet, voiced by Yukana, famous for saying "Desu Wa", she is...

Let's tackle the 100のヴィ学 of that Brit dame who was at the cover of IS (Infinite Stratos) DVD and Blu-Ray Volume 2, Cecilia Alcott (セシリア・オルコット).

IS (Infinite Stratos) DVD Vol. 2
100のヴィ学: That Cecilia chick is someone you would want to trade in The Stig, James Bond, Getaway's Mark Hammond, Black Monday's Eddie O'Connor, Mr. Bean, or whoever the heck the British is. Yes, she keeps saying "Desu Wa" (ですわ。) most of time she finishes her sentence. She might be an elite female who was born and raised from a wealthy family but to me, I'm getting allergic to her verbal tic. In battle, her IS, the Blue Tears, is one tough heavy weaponry. Most memorable is the "The Battle of IS" on episode 2 where main protagonist Ichika battles against Cecilia.

Behind the "Desu Wa" Brit is Yukana, voice over who is Code Geass' C.C., Zettai Karen Children's Fujiko, and she's also Ai Nanasaki from Amagami (from the video game and the SS anime). It seems that the voice of "The Sassy Black Cat" from Amagami was behind the voice of the British representative cadet. I have a funny feeling though that the name Cecilia kinda sounds like Peace Walker's Cecile Cosima Caminades but that's a different story. Cecilia's British and Cecile's French so that makes it a different angle.

You know what, I don't have plans to travel to Britannia to see The Stig, The Top Gear Test Track, Bruntingthorpe, or Silverstone but seeing Cecilia Alcott's face, I think I felt like I'm already experienced them. Hail Britannia? Maybe later, I bet Cecilia is such a fine chocolate cookie for my discriminative taste. Mmmm! Lovely! You're absolutely right! (Laughing)

About IS DVD & BD Vol. 2: Drop your "Chocolatiest Ever" Bingo cookies folks. This is way more delightful, more lovely, and you may say "you're absolutely right" to your pals. The IS (Infinite Stratos) DVD & Blu-Ray Volume 2 packs episodes 3 and 4 with scenes not suitable for TV. It even packs a special audio commentary, "TBS Academy Night Complete Edition" hosted by Kana Hanazawa to go behind the scenes, and textless outro Ver. 2! Limited edition packs another IS FACTS and a special CD that contains Cecilia Alcott's Character Song! You're absolutely right!
