A decent re-orientation episode.
I have no idea who bag head is though.
The Dusters are running out of ideas for monster of the week. It’s getting worse…

Like @ReluctantZen@ani.social says, can confirm that Miku merch sells like crazy.
Even if I’m not familiar with any of her songs besides her cover of Ievan Polkka
- Comment on Teogonia - Episode 2 discussion 2 days ago:
Not bad. This is looking quite watchable.
We get more world building this episode.
I think I’m understanding why this show looks the way it does:
Each individual frame looks great, like this:
But the understanding of the craft of animation is somewhat lacking, like this:

I am liking this.
It’s more like “From Dad To Master Swordsman” made to appeal to middle aged farts like me.
Something’s off about the art, like it’s lacking some finishing steps, but it’s expressive enough, particularly Beryl’s expressions and body language.

I like that answer!

24th Century medicine has cured snoring, but not baldness.

I had to look a few times at that graphic because it doesn’t resemble the show’s visual style at all.

You could just feel that she was going to get dragged back into another jam session…
What’s odd is that none of the other girls got her Freudian slip about the (Red Hot) Chili Peppers. Do none of them listen to pop or rock?
- Comment on Teogonia - Episode 1 discussion 1 week ago:
The production value in this was abysmal. If Powerpoint animation is your thing, congratulations, it’s here.
But I was surprised by the story. All kinds of not-so subtle things hint that something is off:
The villagers refer to themselves as Children of Moloch, not a traditionally good thing to call yourself.
Our protagonist hints that he’s got memories of our modern world, and incongruously, magic.
If I can stomach the animation, this might be worth watching some more.

I remember liking AD Police more than Bubblegum Crisis.

The good news is that we’re seeing a lot more different individuals posting in the episode threads, which is fantastic because I had a hard time starting, much less keeping up with last season’s shows.
Hopefully we’ll see even more consistent and numerous participants in discussion this season…

OP2 is growing on me…
That was a satisfying conclusion to this group fight.
Weird vibes in that encounter between Sakura and Suo though. Some unfinished business on Suo’s end?

I have that camera that she’s holding in the default picture:
It’s a Ricoh Theta 360 degree camera.
- Comment on Is there a way to get a massive dump of memory stuff off my laptop by uploading it to a torrent? If so how and can I make it private just for my access? 1 week ago:
Depending on what you define as “massive”…
The networked storage services: Google Drive, Dropbox, and Microsoft OneDrive offer free storage on virtual hard drives after you install their respective programs.
The amount that’s free is limited: OneDrive 5GB, Dropbox 2GB, Google Drive is weird 15GB across all of Gmail, Photos, Drive, and device backup. You can see your Google storage here one.google.com/storage

Unless your sidewalks are made of gypsum.

Wow, so 20,000 people read this?
Lemmy’s more popular than I thought.

Sidewalk chalk isn’t made of chalk anymore?
TIL: It’s made of calcium sulfate, i.e. gypsum, the same stuff that goes into drywall, as opposed to calcium carbonate, i.e. rock chalk.

I think the second episode was a lot better.
What made you think AI stuff enters the writing?

- Comment on Sword of the Demon Hunter: Kijin Gentosho • Kijin Gentoushou - Episode 2 discussion 2 weeks ago:
Well that was slightly better with less plot and action than episode 1…
Do I like it yet? Enh, not really.
- Comment on Sword of the Demon Hunter: Kijin Gentosho • Kijin Gentoushou - Episode 2 discussion 2 weeks ago:
I think it’s more of Jinya feeling sorry for and forgiving his father, and going back without really coming home so that the plot can move on.
- Comment on Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX • Kidou Senshi Gundam GQuuuuuuX - Episode 1 discussion 2 weeks ago:
Interesting…
They certainly have the combat scenes down, with the half-weighty mecha.
We’ll have to see how the story develops.
- Comment on Once Upon a Witch's Death • Aru Majo ga Shinu Made - Episode 2 discussion 2 weeks ago:
Damn, even if I saw that coming, I still wound up cutting onions…
Meg needs to get going really fast now, or the math says she won’t catch up.
I’m surprised she didn’t get a drop from her friend in the first half.
- Comment on Apocalypse Hotel - Episode 1 discussion 2 weeks ago:
That was interesting…
The sadness around the dead robots, and the hopelessness of the situation those remaining are in…
Good start, but we’ll have to see where it goes…
- Comment on The Beginning After the End • Saikyou no Ousama, Nidome no Jinsei wa Nani wo Suru? - Episode 2 discussion 2 weeks ago:
A much more interesting episode!
The contrast between Arthur’s past life as King Grey is made even more apparent.
For a kid of 4, he’s got good skills, and people are noticing…
- Comment on Kowloon Generic Romance - Episode 1 discussion 2 weeks ago:
That was good.
There’s a strange foreboding atmosphere around the setting. The weird object hanging over it represents the enigma.
Kowloon City doesn’t exist anymore.
For another over-romanticized treatment of the place, see the Hong Kong movie Twilight of the Warriors: Walled In

- Comment on Witch Watch - Episode 1 discussion 2 weeks ago:
I really enjoyed this.
It was a little painful to watch where the protagonist’s gadget/spell of the week gets them in trouble, then out of trouble.
It’s like Doraemon with a cute witch girl instead of a cartoon robot cat, and romantic tension.
But with great direction it’s working! The naruto ramen cakes scene was hilarious!
Looking forward to episode 2.
