Is this what you were talking about?

Yes!!!

...Apart from the fact that it is neither stock footage nor footage from a giant robot show. =)

But, yes, that sort of accompaniment can make gattai sequences awesome every time.

BTW, thank you for that link. It made me quite happy.

I've recently discovered, from watching Claymore, how much I dislike the typical blood spurting out like a fountain thing - especially when it's "slash! - pause - FOUNTAAAAAIN!!!!" :eyeroll:

It's not so annoying as to completely ruin any enjoyment I can get out of a series, but every time it happens it irks me. Makes me appreciate shows like FMA a lot more, where they just have blood splat and fall, rather than spray.
You can find out things about the past that you never knew. And from what you've learned, you may see some things differently in the present. You're the one that changes. Not the past.
