    Good to have you here! Hope you stick around and find your place in the community : D
  2. Doreamon Onizuka, no further context or explanation needed.
  3. I got to Gold 1 on my main starcraft 2 account. I play only zerg so its been a challenging season. I think I can make it to diamond by next weekend.
  4. I suck at dancing, I am awful at it. Like even the cha cha slide is terribly challenging for me. I SPENT A WHOLE SUMMER LEARNING THE HARE HARE YUKAI AND PERFORMED IT FOR MY GIRLFRIEND AT THE TIME please invent a time machine so i can go back and shoot myself It was great fun : D
  5. I was the president for the anime club back in high school, and a lot of people from there still talk with me but life catches up to us all and it has been hard getting together to do otaku things. Usually meet a lot of people at cons but not very many actually care to stay in touch tho the few that do I have a lot of fun with doing non-otaku things which is weird. I honestly cannot wait for cons to start running again.
  6. Understanding Kyo should be a class taught in universities man, he is such a complex character. There is an important shift between Kyo being distant from Tohru in the early episodes versus his distance to her now. To keep her away from him, he used his usual strategy being mean, saying he doesn't care, telling tohru to just go away. But know the distance is not from tohru herself, but from his feelings towards her. Every time he engages with her is a mix between the happiest he is ever been, and so much pain and fear that he will hurt her. That is why even though he is keeping his distance, he asks her to spend time with him, is mindful of what tohru does, and seems to almost always be aware of what tohru is doing and why. Even though he is "distant" from her, the only thing is his mind is tohru.
  7. I feel like an anime like this is potentially worse than an anime that is just bad. At least with a bad anime you get to laugh at how bad it is, or meme the hell out of it. But with this, being so darn forgettable, it is disappointing in every level and is not even worth really ranting about. I had hopes for this. If there is a second season on the works I might watch it see if it improves, but it would have to really darn good to make up for this lack lustre first impression.
  8. Just finished watching Darwin's Game. I cannot wait for season 2 this anime shows lots of promise. Currently going through Infinite Dendrogram, digging it but it felts a too familiar and not in a good way.

  9. This anime. This anime is perfect. I don't think there was a single moment of this anime I was not laughing. It is a 5 min per episode type of anime, which I think fits perfectly. I honestly don't want to say a lot about this anime because even though each episode is so short there is so much to unpack. Go give this a shot, you will not regret it.
  10. At the end of the day, I definitely want a full adaptation even if it does mean a long wait for the next season. Still my body remains not Regi
  11. From the pace of the episodes and from how far along we are into season 2 I am divided as to whether or not a 3rd seasons is worthwhile. In my heart I would love to get one more seasons out of the show, but if it can fit within the second seasons and can be wrapped up nicely I wouldn't complain either so long as it does justice to the story. The biggest heaviest plot is just about to drop, my body is not Regi.
  12. Scorpio, Water Rooster, and a Reed in the celtic zodiac.
  13. Not really currently airing but March comes in like a Lion is a super good SoL, no yuri tho. I would also recommend the Fruits basket (2019) remake if you havent watched it already cus season 2 is coming out soon and it is hype. The Currently VRMMO animes like infinite dendrogram and Bofuri Max Defense are filling that sci fi gap in my life until Knights of Sidonia s3 comes out at some point in the distant future.
  14. I feel the issue comes down to what aspect of Akira do you want to be the main focus. If you go by the anime they tried to cram a government conspiracy, a tale of growing up, and a metaphysical thesis of the nature of conciousness and the power of the evolving human brain. It was a bit of a mess but because it was an animated film, the art team could get a lot of symbolism going because they had total control of the environment and aesthetics (ex. the children scaring Tetsou when he is recovering and using milk and toys as their psychic constructs). If you go by the manga, there is simply too much story to be faithfully translated into a short film. A three film series would be more approachable if they want to tackle all the manga goes through. Having a rise to power, fighting for hope, and resolution theme for each film could be an interesting take on it. I feel however that most life actions films suffer from the very human limitations of acting and directing. It is much easier to do several voice retakes and tweak the animation a little, than have to do retake after retake to get a certain expression or emotion right. Plus the handling of special effects can break or make a live action film. I personally feel certain works are so iconic they are best left alone. I understand some themes might become dated but it also serves as a lense as to how people then perceived the possible futures of humanity and what worried them and what excited them. So long as its not another death note at least haha
  15. No one: Absolutely no one: Infinite Dendrogram Ep 3: WATCH OUT KINGDOM OF ALTAR, BIG DADDY DOLOMITE ROOK IS COMING TO SLAP ALL DA HOS
  16. This show has no right being as good as it is. Let's get the obvious out of the way, yes this is a chinese cartoon so I guess technically it is not anime. Having said that Holy Cow this show has no right being as good as it is. Its dynamic, has so much kinetic energy in its animation, its funny, its packed with every kind of feel, its full of action, its just so so so darn good. I don't know if a second season is coming out or what is happening with this show, but if you have not given this one a shot, you absolutely need to. Also don't forget to watch the OVAs.
  17. I want to say Knights of Sidonia up to a point. I don't know if you have seen it already but I found it very enjoyable and in depth in regards to how they handle their science stuff. It might be really science fantasy after a certain level but I think it is overally a very good anime definately worth checking out. I will say the animation still was a bit rough at first, but it is by no means bad or unwatchable.
  18. Hello and welcome to the forum. New higurashi stuff is coming out to so thats a thing. I would suggest the series called Another, its definately one of the best horror anime out there if you havent seen it already.
  19. Mazinger Z ladies and gentlemen! I honestly never find people who even know of this anime but it is a wild f-ing ride peeps. The only way I can describe this anime is to say at some point a lady robot fires her boobies as a weapon and it became a thing to the point there is references to it in marvel vs capcom as one of Rolls specials
  20. @Wedgy I want to try to beat portal without ever pivoting the mouse now, just doing my best with a stiff neck
  21. @Ohiotaku FURABA FOR LIFE, I waited 18 years, 18 painful years before they made a proper anime of this amazing, hearwarming, heartwrenching, tear jerking, brilliant story to happen. And the first season was so so so good. I live and breath for this anime. I cannot wait for april.
  22. Welcome friend! As someone with a Phd in being a weeb I recommend you watch The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, Evangelion, Hunter x Hunter, Fate/Zero, Lucky Star, K-on, Clannad and Angel beats. If you have already seen any of most of those, lemme know and I will continue your initiation into full otakuness.
  23. Welcome to the fellowship of the anime. You are amongs friends here : D
  24. @Seshi Episode 2 was wild. The impact the death lock out has on the tians was like wow that sucks. I mean with how much the players actions affect the world, being locked out of it for three in game days could have a lot of ramifications. Like in my head im seeing players assassinating others to keep certain quests from being completed and then use that 72 in game time to further secure their goals. I am really looking forward to see how much in game polictics will be addressed in the plot. Plust maybe they might do something a la .Hack and show the impact of obessessive gaming where players get addicted to the game and start ignoring real life. It was mentioned in the first episode that you can turn off pain sensors, so what other kind of simulation system could be available. More and more questions keep being asked for every little one the show answers, so I can say im definately hooked on plot and characters. The only things I somewhat dislike is the generic opening theme but I will gadly give that up if the anime stays consistent to the world its building and shows how impactful a word like this can be to people in general. I am also very eager to see what other types of embryos look like and how they actually work, since sexy succubus are apparently a possibility
  25. I have to say the Thousand Sunny is probably the better looking ship, but the Going Merry will always have a place in my heart Best ship ever
