  1. I forgot about the doctor thing. But they'll probably find something to add why he can still get injured. Then again, it might be interesting to see him pass all for one on, maybe as something like the last season. I also think that some of these questions will be clearer once they show what exactly the deal with All Might's medical condition is.
  2. Not that important, but will be at a conference the next couple of days. So just a general fyi explaining the absence 😂 

  3. First off, it really sucks that you and many others have to deal with anxiety. I hope everyone will find a way to overcome it. Off the top of my head, I can think of two shows, both of which I haven't seen. So can't say if they really fit your description, but others who have seen it might be able to. One would be March Comes in Like a Lion. The other Your Lie in April. Like I said I haven't seen them, only saw many trailers and some reviews which hinted in that direction. Something that kind off deals with existential dread in a really metaphorical way would be Neon Genesis Evangelion. But since I'm not sure I got the ending, I can't say if it is existential dread or something else
  4. Hi there! My friend recently just married someone from Poland, and I really found your language interesting. I always wondered why you had so many consonants together, but it turns out many are single sounds (like rz being a single sound). Anyway, is anime popular in Poland?
  5. They hinted in the last episode that there will be something up with Allmight. I assume that it will probably have to do with his losing the powers, and probably also suffering severe health repercussions. So I guess that Allmight will play less of a role as a hero this season. But I am curious to see what's up with what they hinted at.
  6. Hi there! Favorites, I don't know. I liked Daily Lives of High School Boys it just captures the essence of being a High School boy so well As for showing around. I found the 'Unread Content' at the top right (and the 'mark site as read at the top left when you are at unread content) quite useful. Other than that, your first few posts get moderated to avoid spammers, but you can post and edit normally after that. If there's any specific topic you want to talk about, look if there's a thread for it, if not just create a new one I'm certain everyone here appreciates some fresh input!
  7. Got the random chance to catch up. Anyone still watching it? If so, what do y'all think? Is it just me or does it seem a lot more Deku-focused than the seasons before?
  8. It gives me the same as funimation and so many others "Tubi is the largest free movie and TV streaming service in the US. We are not available in Europe due to changes in EU laws." Darn you licensing restrictions @leinwandname Sites like 9anime etc are kinda legal-illegal depending on the jurisdiction etc. From what I understand, watching anime there doesn't support the original creators, so that's something to consider. Like I've said before though, it seems kinda stupid that people in Europe pay about the same as in the US for Crunchyroll for example, but get only a fraction of the titles. I mainly use Crunchyroll, not that I have the time to watch a lot these days
  9. @Serge heartless I didn't mean to buy them from you just buy them in general
  10. @Fireduck and @Serge heartless Great collection! You both have titles I really would want to buy at some point. @Fireduck What version of Your Name is that?
  11. @Musuko No worries, I don't mind disagreement since it's part of my job and it's what I do most of the time Also I don't take any of it personally. I might have expressed myself a bit too vague when I said 'politics'. I have nothing against the examples you mentioned. In fact, I would find it great if you make a game that centers around the theme of 'unchecked genetic enhancement' as this plays directly into what I work on (I have only played Bioshock for like 10 minutes once). I also think it's interesting if a game talks about themes such as capitalism, communism etc.. In fact, I find it adds to a game/anime/movie if there is an underlying theme with more depth. Maybe the term 'party politics' would be closer to what I mean with 'politics'. For example, I personally would not like this My Hero Academia season directly promoting something for/against the border wall in the US. If it were an anime about immigration and why border walls should/should not be build, that would be a different thing. I haven't watched the whole interview in the case above, but find it a bit difficult to relate a card game about Warcraft to current political protests in Hong Kong. So I don't have anything about anime/games touching upon political themes generally, but I do not think they should be used to promote current party politics when the anime/game doesn't really have anything to do with it in the first place. Another thing which I might have to say a bit more explicitly is that just because I think this should not be the case, doesn't mean I think it should be illegal. I am not making any claim about whether the esports gamer should have a legal right to make the comments he did in that context. I personally think you should keep politics like in that case out of videogames, but I am not saying it should be illegal to do otherwise. Kinda like I might think you should not waste 90% of your money on betting on horse races, but I wouldn't necessarily make it illegal.
  12. This is you in a few years 😂

      I really enjoyed watching that lol

  13. I just didn't have the time to catch up with everything because of different things lately. I'll probably end up watching everything in one go after the season ends. Too bad though, since I did want to keep hearing what everyone else thinks weekly!
  14. Hi there! There are a few others from the UK here as well. You guys should form a tea-corner or something Anyway, it's great you found your way here!
  15. So if I get this right, a professional gamer introduced political content in his stream/interview and was then banned for one year and his prize money was revoked. On the one side, generally, I think you should keep politics out of sports, videogames etc.. You hear about politics almost everywhere nowadays, so it would be great if there are areas that don't include it. But personally I find what Blizzard did rather harsh. I read their reasoning (violate the rule that the player did something to damage Blizzard's image), and find it a bit far-fetched, although I could see it hold up in court. Still, I assume the guy (at least partly) lives from esports, so banning him for a full year does seem harsh to me. The Congress thing should be seen more generally, I think. The Blizzard case, as they write, is only one of a few recent cases where a foreign nation (China) influenced decisions in the US in a targeted way. I highly doubt Congress is particularly interested in that particular esport, but rather saw it as an opportunity to take a stance against that foreign influence. I do think it's a bit 'unorthodox' for Congress to get mixed up in such a particular case, but can understand the general idea behind it. At the end of the day, Blizzard is just a company like many others trying to maximize their income. Protesting against them might let them reconsider, but seeing how huge the Chinese market is, it might from a business side be more advantageous to stick to their banning the player.
  16. I thought the 'recap' was done very well. But, what I kinda expected it to be a bit shorter so that they also show some new stuff. Something like half an episode recap and the other half something new would have been great.
  17. Hi there! I also liked Hunter x Hunter, but can't really decide which is better, the new version or the old one. You are taking that N5 this year? I heard those are quite difficult! But never even tried or seen one myself
  18. You probably have heard of protons, electrons etc. right? There are also 'anti-particles' for those such as anti-protons and anti-electrons. Reading your post, as someone who doesn't drink coffee, I really thought that in this respect you are an anti-version of me or vice versa
  19. holy guacamole, just saw the first dubbed episode of Nichijou. I didn't even know there was a dub. Gotta say, it is insanely different from the Japanese version! I knew dubs could change a lot but it really shows with Nichijou

      I've seen the same thing.  Dubs really are different shows than the originals they're based on.

  20. Hi there. Cheerful you say? Then you can't be from Europe just joking. There are a few who like fantasy here. Have you seen the first season of The Rising of the Shield Hero? Not exactly what you described but it's just the first current title that came to mind
  21. @Endynyp why do you want caffeine though? Aren't people nowadays stressed out enough
  22. @Ohiotaku It's a movie? I thought it was a series as well. Oh well, still gonna have a look!
  23. Posted it somewhere before but I'm also curious about blackfox
  24. That's certainly a quite original introduction I'll go with my usual and unoriginal Hi there!
