Roger's monologue at the end of Act 26

Hey guys, I was just wondering if anyone could give me the full text from Roger's monologue to Angel verbatim. It might be in one of these threads around here, but honestly, I don't feel like digging through the thousands of threads on Act 26. I would find it myself, but I don't have the DVD.

As a defining moment of the show, I love that monologue. If anyone could find this for me, I would very much appreciate it.

Oh yah...definately Neutral The ending of Act26 was both brilliant and "stupid as hell". Brilliant in that it was an awesome-looking ending and tried to come to some sort of temporary conclusion/cliffhanger...stupid as hell in that it made little sense whatsoever. To leave off on such a note would be a crime against humanity.

For some odd reason I liked seeing/hearing the japanese version of Act26's ending (Megadeus' spoiler clips! Big Grin ) better than the English version. Although it's a poor excuse to favor one over the other...the ending monologue seemed more poetic and more meaningful when I didn't know what was being said. Embarrassed Sweatdrop (plus I don't think Steven Blum pulled it off all that well)

I liked the spoiler clips better too. Why? Because there was no dialogue. Just pure, "that was cool" factor. And the anticipation of seeing it in English which would make all the crazy crap on screen make sense.

But it didn't. It made negative sense. To me, it didn't tie anything up, it (the second season, particularly the last few episodes) just turned a cool and stylish show into a bizarre weird thing that was just confusing and heavy with excessive symbolism.

Althouh the episode where Dorothy was kidnapped by those spider robot thigns was badass.

*has also read monologue* I totaly agree, I really miss Roger's monologues, they're some of the best I've ever heard.

rogers were brilliant but i adored Schwarzwald's ones even more, in my opinion hes one of the best characters ive ever seen in any anime, he is such a powerful character even though very little is really known of him

Believe me, I'm not downsizing Schwarzwald, his monologues defiantly surpass Roger's.
