RE; JEREMIAH

[susure.livejournal.com]

not quite a meme, but this image has been circulated here and there long before the airing of R2 turn 25.

now here's a screenshot from that episode (via glenngunnerzero):



we all know jeremiah's character is dictated by the fanbase (it was his popularity that brought him back from the dead and elevated his role from a minor character to the orange-kun we know today). what i'm asking is if you think the studio saw that first image of jeremiah somewhere and decided to work it into the ending as a nod to the fans?

Oh my god I was like the same. I was bawwing so much, and saw Orenjikun and got out a ghergh, then turning back to crying.

Jeremiah-kun is the best ever!ç_ç <3

[moebot.livejournal.com]

I doubt it.

Orange plantations had been brought up in relation to Jeremiah earlier in the series.

I think it was for the fans too XD;
To make the fans stop sobbing, maybe. I loled really hard even though I was almost dying.

Doesn't Guilford say something like "You can either be demoted or go work on an orange plantation" to Orange back in season one?

[susure.livejournal.com]

if he does, you have an astounding memory of minutia. D:

[cosmicbiscuit.livejournal.com]

I'm pretty sure that was one of the possible punishments. Which just makes this even better.

[dr-wats0n.livejournal.com]

Yep. As early the first couple of episodes, even.

[susure.livejournal.com]

whaaat. if someone can post a clip, i would greatly appreciate.

[dr-wats0n.livejournal.com]

I can't make clips from .mkv files, but here's a screencap.



It's about 7 minutes into episode 6.

[susure.livejournal.com]

o.

i guess his ending WAS pretty poetic then..

[voguebishoujo.livejournal.com]

I remember when that ep. was on adult swim, I wasn't really paying attention, and then I heard that and was like, "LOLWUT?" I've ended up threatening people with it myself <3 XD

[moebot.livejournal.com]

There's also a minigame where you help Jeremiah grow oranges in the DS game, I've heard.

[dr-wats0n.livejournal.com]

Jeremiah went from going ballistic at the mention of his nickname to taking pride in it and calling it the color of his loyalty. By the same token, he ended up on an Orange farm of his own free will, even though he once considered it the most humiliating possible punishment. It's beautiful and one of the best side plots in R2, even if it was all fan driven :).

[cranes.livejournal.com]

This alone is what's keeping me sane throughout the chaos. Fuck, Jeremiah is awesome.

[sakura-no-miko.livejournal.com]

Doesn't Jeremiah's family own an orange plantation in Florida? or was that just something someone made up?

[hina.livejournal.com]

Made up.

[ladyofjoy.livejournal.com]

I lmao.

[thomasvye.livejournal.com]

I haven't posted here forever because the show so badly jumped the shark I quit watching it. But Jeremiah remained my #1 favourite until the bitter end and I am so glad he survived and couldn't not post to be generally joyful!

And many fanartists drew Jeremiah finding happiness in his orange grove way back when he was threatened with it...like me! XD



Now I have to find my Orenge kun shirt and wear it tomorrow! ^-^b

As I was watching the last episode I thought of that picture because I've seen in before
I was pretty much crying but then i saw the orange plantation and I went FBWUAHAHFGAW

[ladyofjoy.livejournal.com]

I think if they didn't do that, half of the people in the world would be wanting to die now.

- Ok, not all that.


- Ok, only people who saw CG and wanted to cry in the end.

[gomimushi.livejournal.com]

I thought of that picture when I saw the ending. I wanted to post it but I couldn't find it. OTL

Now that I see it again.... -dying of laughter-

[voguebishoujo.livejournal.com]

GET ON YOUR ORANGE BOX.
FLORIDA'S JEREMIAH'S NATURAL ORANGES =0

[angel-terra.livejournal.com]

The question here is... what the devil is Anya doing with him? o_o
And I hope ninjawaifu!Sayoko is waiting at the farm with some fresh made orange juice <w<

[inomuiro.livejournal.com]

...those are exactly my same question and hope XD

But we all know Jeremiah and Sayoko weren't at the wedding 'cause they were busy *cough* otherwis...

[xedosarthea.livejournal.com]

I thought of that picture when I saw the ending scenes, too.
I was kinda wondering where Sayoko went though haha

[azulluna.livejournal.com]

Oh, that make me laugh so hard, and then I went back to crying.
