- Comment on [Clip] [Major Spoilers!] Little Red Riding Hood (Jin-Roh: The Wolf Brigade) 1 week ago:
Finished Oshii Mamoru’s Kerberos Movie Trilogy with Jin-Roh. It’s the only animated film in the trilogy and it’s a lot more serious than the other two films (they are all very good IMO).
I was debating whether to submit a clip of the Fuse being a killing machine or this one but I really liked the human emotions he displayed here that we never get to see in any part of the film and yet he still ultimately plays the role of the wolf.

Really love what they made. Even if it’s just 15 minutes long it’s nice to revisit the alternate worlds of Eva, this included. Eva is timeless.

- Comment on The big lie about the origin of manga | matttt - comic & manga history [18:31] 3 weeks ago:
In the video, it’s framed that the world thinks manga is a “uniquely Japanese” thing but the video counters that by using Eike Exner’s book on manga history.
I didn’t finish the video yet (this is just the first minute or two) but I am going to guess that it’s either the Meiji period or the American occupation having influence on how manga eventually developed to what we know today. This is the same argument used by theorists like Azuma Hiroki but he talks about otaku culture more broadly.

The CORS headers should be there now. I managed to get my account from another homeserver to join. Also, someone else managed to join just fine from another homeserver. Can you try again?

Any reason why dendrite was chosen?
Honestly, I just wasn’t aware there were other implementations other than Synapse and Dendrite. I feel a bit disappointed in myself if I just installed abandonware lol

Yeah Lemmy’s errors can be vague sometimes. I’ll just add it to the sidebar.

I suggest uploading directly to ani.social but there’s an upload limit of 25MB. If your file is bigger than 25MB, then you will have to re-encode it so it’s smaller. Something like 8mb.video will make it easy.
Otherwise, you can use any external file host like catbox.moe. I prefer if people upload directly to ani.social instead so we don’t put too much load on others.

I’ve considered it before but I’m mostly concerned about moderation. I have set up and used a personal Matrix server in the past so it’s something I can experiment with over the weekend.

I don’t know if it counts as horror but Perfect Blue. Maybe more thriller than horror.

Thanks! Wasn’t aware it behaved differently in Chrome. On Firefox, it seems to play with the audio just fine.

Thanks! Seems like it mostly works on Android but is limited by app support.

Yeah I think they changed the ending theme for newer releases due to licensing issues. My sister watched NGE on Netflix and she was confused whenever I brought up Fly Me to the Moon.
The only disc that didn’t work when I tested them is the one that has something called “Evangelion:Death(True)2” and the End of Evangelion movie plus some bonus content – this is an AACS issue rather than physical damage so there’s hope that I can watch it eventually, just… not now.
Death:True^2 was a recap movie with some extra scenes IIRC. It was like watching an experimental edit of NGE. The End of Evangelion movie is really important to the original series though. Hope you get to watch it!
- Comment on Fun fact: you can't upload this image on piefed.social 1 month ago:
For those hosting their own PieFed instances, this is very easy to disable (I think it was
ALLOW_4CHAN=Truein the env). I turned it off because I didn’t like the OCR scanning every upload and locking up my tiny 2 core server for a few seconds. - Comment on It's dignity! 2 months ago:

Monogatari Series.
This is the first 45 seconds of the first episode:
It’s really perverted but I’ve never seen perversion presented in such a way. I instantly knew it had a different kind of “language” in anime. I love every second of it. ^and^ ^i^ ^love^ ^hitagi^ ^so^ ^much^

Finished Kemonozume last week. I think it’s Masaaki Yuasa’s most underrated work so far but I’ve yet to see all his works. Really love how crude-looking it is and yet it feels very intentional and complete.
