Good morning, kapuso!

There are several comments I want to make on last night's episode, and in response to your comments too:


pinay_chemist and leighla,

I agree that Habagat's costume doesn't suit him as well as Vultra's and Rasmus's suit them. It seems to me that costume-designers got a bit sloppy when it came to later additions to the cast, such as Paloma and the new Habagat., though they did a great job with the fairies, especially Nancy's character (the one who's like Tinkerbell) I think the problem with Romnick Sarmenta's costume is the bulk of ink-black feathers around his head, and also the fact that he has a smaller, smoother face than Gary Estrada's. The headgear they put on him makes his head look really small and overwhelmed by the makeup and "fur." :) Gary's face is square and angular, very strong, and the colorful red and yellow feathers augment these features and make him look really fierce.

But that is not to take anything away from Romnick or the crew of Mulawin. As you and bluedove say, Habagat can now more fully play the part of the villain. This brings me to the question:

WHAT WILL RASMUS DO NOW?

A wild guess is that he might betray Habagat in turn to the Mulawin. But that is far-fetched and Rasmus knows he'll gain nothing from it. Besides, his rival in love, Bagwis, will be there. What I'm really curious about now is what will happen between Rasmus and Vultra now. Will Vultra go back to Halconia to settle the score with Rasmus? Or will she search for the Balasik bird? The only thing she is interested in now is finding her child.

There was a revelation last night too. Ravenum chided Rasmus for wasting his time on such "unimportant" things as love. But Rasmus replied that it was that love that led him to bring back his father from the grave. Did I hear that right or did I misunderstand it? Is Ravenum his father then? If so, then Ravenum should have returned the favor to his son and helped him find Vultra.

I'd really like to know how this will turn out for Rasmus. He may be evil, but he stands by what he does and what he is, unlike Habagat who (figuratively and literally) changes his colors to his advantage. Rasmus may be slow and stupid sometimes compared to his queen, but I still think he is one of the best-conceived characters in the cast.
