15 September 2012: Lost Christmas is Guilty Crown, best case scenario
Whether people admit it or not, there was a bit of excitement and anticipation last year for Guilty Crown. The show turned out to have huge problems, but I still managed to find stuff to like about it, although I'm convinced it would have been much better without Potato-kun Shoe Shoo Shu.
Enter Lost Christmas. I don't know anything about the game, but I did watch the 15-minute video pack-in prequel to Guilty Crown. Surprising no one, I'm sure, I'm going to go out on a limb and suggest Guilty Crown would have been a pretty good show had it been about Scrooge and Carol (ha ha, get it? ho ho ho) instead of Shu and Inori. Sure, it was only 15 minutes, but I'm pretty sure Scrooge is not a putz, and—as far as I can tell—Carol actually has a personality. I'll entertain arguments suggesting Inori has a superior battle costume, but Carol has a poofy hat. I like hats.
