peer agreement (net): +1at first, I didn't understand where it was headed. Explanation: This is a play on words. Beer is not only a thirst-quencher but it's also an alcoholic beverage that can get to your head. By the same token, a bridge can take you from point A and it will be headed to point B. "de lo que podía ir" is the clue to the commercial that shows the bridge stemming out of the glass. Anything short of that will kill the commercial because it will ignore the entire point and the bridge will not mean anything at all. I hope I made my point. :0) |

Pero eso sólo es el principio de un todo extraño. http://www.gameit.es/la-cabana-en-el-bosque-critica/ Unknown: El creador de esa historia es Gen urobuchi (uno de los autores con la mente mas retorcida que existe en Japón) si quieren saber mas de el solo busquen en google images "saya no uta" y pueden ver lo que le espera a Madoka digamos que ***por eso ya sabía de lo que podía ir la serie*** pero por lo demás es una de las mejores series que ha dado el anime ultimamente http://www.vidaextra.com/respuestas/alguien-esta-viendo-mado... Spain: Volvió al cabo de varios minutos con algo en la mano. Era un libro. Se lo entregó. -¿Quieres que lo lea? Él asintió.*** Leyó el título del libro "Don Juan Tenorio". Con aquel nombre, se podía hacer una idea, de lo que podía ir la historia.*** -Gracias. http://sinolointentasnuncalosabras.blogspot.com.es/ |
