I'm thinking there might be a better way to phrase "Jap vamps."
But I don't know, the Japanese vampires were using specific powers. They were never werewolves in the sense that we know werewolves. I just can't see Armstrong going "She's a cat changer... and a slayer too!" T'would be too much.

Except "Jap" is a racial slur and the others are not.

Yeah, and that's true for Scottish and British people. For Japanese people, it's not. I'm not Japanese and I'm not pulling this out of no where, it's just true. Move on to things less centered around this and more towards Angel. The dude corrected his post, there is no debate here.

Is it racist though? I'm Scottish and it's just like somebody calling me a Scot which is not racist at all. It's the correct way of saying it depending on the sentence. Or how people from Brittian get called Brits. It wasn't considered offensive until after World War II. So it is a little different than Scot or Brits. But yeah, like Pat said, let's just move on.

No, you're not. A lot of people liked it, just not as much as "After the Fall," which is understandable. I thought it was a decent start to what looks to be a promising arc.

Personally I thought 18 was worse that 17. Everyone said it would be the opposite but sadly for me, it wasn't. The character likenesses are off and the characters personalities are all over the place. Hopefully they will jump back on track by this issue. We can hope.

We can hope. i'm guessing you mean 18 and 19 not 17 and 18. I dunno, i think 19 was better than 18 but i agree in that likenesses and personalities are still largely all over the place.
