No, that's not it. Here's the quote again so people don't have to switch between pages.

If we accept the existence of something that could look down on us from heaven, there would be no way to catch it. I would either have died a long time ago, or I'd be spending eternity being toyed with in the palm of their hand. There's no way that something like that exists.

Hint #1: spoiler[The speaker is well-known by those around him for his idiosyncrasies.]

Could that be spoiler[L from Death Note speaking to his Kira Investigation Team, possibly in response to Madarame voicing the opinion that supernatural forces might be at work here]?

Correct!! I'm actually really surprised that quote lasted that long. The part it's from is when spoiler[Light has lost his memory, and L is explaining the two options of what could have happened. Either Light/Kira willingly transferred his powers or some Great Supernatural Being bestowed and removed them, controlling things behind the scenes.]

Last quote on file, so I guess I've gotta dig up some new ones. From the subs:

“In other words, this boils down to, ‘I’m going to finish you off with all of my magic at point-blank range, so hold still, bitch.’”

I came at a convenient time.

Hrm, sounds like spoiler[Kuroneko to Kirino, from Oreimo. when they argue about their (favorite) genres of anime. Kuroneko is dissing Kirino's taste of the Mahou Shoujo genre.]

Time to get voting on the tournament too.

Apologies for the delay; ran into some access troubles this morning and couldn't even look at the thread before going to work.

EmbraceMe is correct.

Thought I was going to delay the quote since I just got home but it turns out I came in time.

I'll post something easy from the official subs:

Let us pass, let us pass
Where doth this narrow path lead?
It doth lead to the gods in Heaven
Thou thoughts matter not for ye cannot pass
To celebrate this child's tenth
I must make an offering with these talismans
The path is pleasant, but returning is scary
Can I pass despite my fears?

Correct, pretty awesome song I must say but I think Un-Go's ED beats it.

I sure wish I could convince Funimation's video player to turn the page. Well, I guess I'll go with a different show's quote.

A: You don't believe in what you're saying. No, you're just fooling yourself as to what you really believe.
B: You're wrong! I honestly believe it! What would you, someone with no permanent home, know about that?!
A: Then why did you keep holding onto it as if your life depended on it?!
B: Because it was my son who built it!!

Hints are hard to write, for some reason.

Hint 1: spoiler[The two characters in this conversation represent the opposing concepts of freedom and stability to the main character.]

I remember now. It took a while, but it came to me. I think seeing mention of the show on another thread helped jog my memory. Razz

Anime: spoiler[Eureka Seven]

Character A: spoiler[Holland Novak]

Character B: spoiler[Axel Thurston]

I don't remember the situation exactly, but I believe this was an exchange they had right at the beginning of the series.

If I'm right, I'm going to pass. My brain isn't up to coming up with a quote right now.
