I honestly love that we’ve all agreed to misattribute this relationship of triangles to Pythagoreas, because it’s meant future generations keep learning about Greece’s greatest crackhead.

DLC feels like a very strange term to use here, but it’s cool to see the team still plans to add more content after the mod was released.

Still feel bad for Kinta doing 90% of the work only to lose out on his dream scifi girlfriend.

“honor”, “special tribute” it’s just the same kinda ad sets that they’ve been doing for a few years now lol.

because this is secretly a romance anime and it’s the best way to add tension to a romance plot

Did we finally get the big timeskip? I can’t handle watching from week to week, I have to hate binge all at once, but really want to see the big 12.8 million meters, one second moment.

Nothing would prevent the other part of the country from offering asylum or relocation assistance. Sure, it would suck that those people have to move, but I think a lot of them want to right now and are just unable to do so.

Breaking news: the person you hate just made a great point.
I’d absolutely love for a peaceful split. Let conservatives have the country they voted for while the rest of us who didn’t fuck around don’t have to find out. I just don’t know if such a thing is feasible.
- Comment on I'm a bit hooked on old anime. 2 weeks ago:
Sometimes, I wanna watch something super fast-paced and flashy that really keeps my brain engaged. and sometimes, I just wanna get really high and count how many unique frames Inuyasha actually has in a single episode.
- Comment on I'm a bit hooked on old anime. 2 weeks ago:
Kinda surprised by this take, because IMO the biggest strength of the new anime I’ve been watching is that the pacing is much, much better. I’m often blown away by how much is packed into each episode of something like DanDaDan, Gachiakuta, or Sakamoto Days. Even something that I’d consider a little slow, like parts of Solo Leveling or Kaiju Number Eight, still blow older anime like Naruto or One Piece out of the water.

Choosing to believe this is the reason we weren’t able to see him before the flashback sequence revealed him to us.
- Comment on [Episode] DAN DA DAN Season 2 • Dandadan 2nd Season - Episode 10 discussion 4 weeks ago:
The biggest plothole in Dandadan is how Takakura was getting hard targeted for bullying when Kinta was really out here like this.

It’s definitely Newton for me, I wanna know how far he really got on the Philosopher’s Stone!
- Comment on New Key Visual for 'Dan Da Dan' Season 2 1 month ago:
I wonder how far season 2 will go. It seems like we’ll have the house rebuilt at the end of ep 9, probably an episode for the introduction of Kinta, then like 2-3 episodes of kaiju fighting? Maybe a teensy bit of Space Globalists right at the end?
- Comment on What is a perfect anime? 1 month ago:
It’s one of many very sad instances where a visionary creative had a cool story they wanted to tell, and then after they finished and left the studio stepped in and said “Okay, now how much more can we wring out of it!”
On the upside, the first season serves a full, complete perfect story, with nothing further that needed to be added. Also, not all of the additional stuff sucks. Production IG brought Gen back to write the movie, and it was OK.
- Comment on Sekiro - Shadows Die Twice Anime 1 month ago:
This is kinda a weird choice. I don’t think the setting of Sekiro is that vast, so I imagine this will kinda have to follow the plot of the game. The thing is, Sekiro was already a heavy story-based game, at least compared to most other FromSoft titles. Your character has a voice, there are story cutscenes, it’s not quite like a Dark Souls where you can complete the game without knowing anything about Kuro or his goals.
If the anime is really just going to be a beat for beat retelling of Sekiro, that seems like a waste. It’s also not like the story of the game is even that compelling? It’s a lot of Macguffin collecting, the overall theme is a pretty basic “power corrupts.”

One of the few studios where I’ll watch whatever they make, no questions asked.
- Comment on What is a perfect anime? 1 month ago:
First season of Psycho-Pass. later seasons got a bit too muddled and had some repetitive antagonists, so I wouldn’t recommend continuing it. Shinya Kogami and Shogo Makishima’s rivalry is the real meat of the story, and getting rid of both characters at the end of S1 just killed all of the show’s momentum. Gd, what a rivalry though.
Oh yeah, and the animation, visual style, and music all slaps. There’s also great side characters that get a few moments to develop and stand-out, and most of them didn’t get brought along to later seasons either.
- Comment on Why the skibidi are you adding skibidi to the Cambridge Dictionary? We think it has "staying power", answer word boffins 1 month ago:
I don’t really care too much about which slang words we decide to carry forward. I’ve long since adopted rizz and -ussy, and like delulu being added here.
I am a little bothered by the fact skibidi doesn’t have a definition. I feel like words should have a meaning if they want to be added to our official lexicon. It seems like skibidi is just a sound children enjoy making.

The thing is, the alternative is a wire that inevitably gets tangled up in my spinning chair. what we really need is the ability to transmit electricity wirelessly.

Holy hell this shit is so peak. Never would have expected that exorcism, really love that Jiji let the band setup and perform knowing the whole time what he’d do.
I need to talk about the ending
Holy shit I love Momo’s friends so gd much. They’re such incredible schemers and having them drag Okarun to the maid cafe just to troll both of them is the exact kinda stupid high school antics I can get behind.

Spoiler
If Lord D. Coast was strong enough to remove the mark of the Abyss from Shanks’ arm, what does this mean for my base Luffy stonks?
- Comment on What anime has the best worldbuilding? 1 month ago:
The biggest change that I loathe is the Void Century. The initial concept seemed too fantastical to be true. A 100 year chunk of history that has been cut out and scrubbed from the record? So there was contiguous history from before that, right?..right?
Spoilers for Manga
Elbaph has been good so far, but learning that actually there’s a shitton of history from before the Void Century that has all been covered up, and actually it would be more correct to just call the Void Century the start of recorded modern history, was a huge let down. That’s just Big Brother from 1984, it’s not nearly as impressive that the WG was able to craft their own narrative when they were the only ones coming out of an apocalypse.
Oda’s really big on rule of cool and having flashy setpieces in the moment, and that’s fun. It’s just a very disappointing world when there are so many examples of the audience being told one thing, only for the information to be changed later.
