These are a few good ones where they are just really good at their jobs. Headhunted was a hidden gem I didn’t expert to like it.
- Comment on Why DS9 is still best Star Trek 1 week ago:
Ironically the limitations put on DS9 made it one of the best and what shows today should take notes on. Because the studio wanted episodic television and the writers wanted serial arcs. You got this mash up of the early seasons being more character driven one off stories like TNG’s 3rd season and on. But then once you got to know the characters in seasons 1 and 2 they opened the floodgates with long arch’s with and over arching arc of the War to see these bigger stories with established characters hell I think some DS9 recurring characters have more depth than most of Voygers main cast but even then there would be a one off breather episode like the holosuite heist or baseball or even more character development like with Nog’s leg to let out the tension of the story. So they ramp it back up again.

- Comment on [Discussion] Witch Hunter Robin Proved Anime Doesn’t Need Constant Action to Be Great. 3 weeks ago:
Yeah for VE the action was the weakest part and derailed the message for me. I liked it better when it was a story of recovery from war but the struggles with the programing the military has to do to soldiers in order for them to fight in war and how they try to deprogram and find their place in the world. When the story was just about that it hit hard. The idea she was a supersoldier because she had zero humanity or emotions and thus could kill without a second thought for the mission was the point. Not that she was somehow a superhero that the action scenes undermined.
spoiler
It was bullshit that the captain was alive at the end when the whole show was her dealing with him being gone and moving on. It was such a copout and made him look like an asshole for not reaching out.

As someone has been a long term investors what I don’t get about this show is losses are only real when you pull out of the market. The emotional response to that line going down i know is very common for people to see that as a real number like the main character but it makes watching the show very frustrating.
- Comment on Rod Roddenberry On How New Paramount Wants “To Do Right By Star Trek” 5 weeks ago:
No not directly related but star trek was their biggest draw to their streaming platform and he somehow pissed off both audiences with his poor creative choices. The fact he kept his job is a failure of leadership of thinking special effects equal quality content. So do I think there was an active effort as some kind of Conspiracy. God no that would be stupid but we live in a world of systems and the actions of one party benefit another party even if they are not working together. Even if the motive was not to help.

Its almost like the two are related Kurtzman drove it in to the ground due to bad writing and focus on action set pieces vs progressive normalization storytelling. So Ellison had the chance to buy it.

Air Gear story is okay but the music is great
- Comment on [Discussion] Isekai that is really good, in your opinion? 1 month ago:
I like “That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime” its the anime equivalent of a survival crafting game with cheat codes. Not a lot of depth but fun watch.
- Comment on The physical media selection at Sony's Crunchyroll is even worse than fans feared after store update: all books removed and Blu-ray lineup gutted 2 months ago:
Yeah but the Retaliatory Tariffs cause issues no mater where they are manufactured the only answer is to have two facilities and the scale of economics make two plants unrealistic. Plus the Tariffs change on a whim so their plans dashed from week to week.

I have a weird theory that the reason this is happening is physical media was on the low end of sales anyway but it was valuable to Sony and other game makers to keep the relationship with the retailers and prestige of being on the shelf but the stupid Tariffs that got thrown around by idiots made moving physical goods a nightmare and to be stable companies side step Tariffs by going digital only.
