Finished the last / 7th Kara no Kyoukai movie
Idk, I liked the plot and the inner morals conflicts revolving around Shiki, but the baddie this time around was just so mehhh villain-of-the-week fodder compared to big baddie Araya from the 5th movie so it was less epic
Overall it's a pretty enjoyable series so if you got the time you should go for it ^-^
BTW: throughout the whole time I was always bothered by how everyone is like a predecessor clone of someone from Fate/Stay. Bejeebus, these guys REALLY liked their char designs so much they recycled them all huh ._.
Well it is set in a alternative universe from Tsukihime/Fate Stay Night, so it is entirely possible that some people share "souls", but that is a fanfiction for another time
.
Did you watch Mirai Fukuin and Mirai Fukuin Extra Chorus? It's a decent enough, collection of side stories to the series.

I found Ever 17 to be thoroughly boring and to this day I have only completed three routes(one of which was Sora's), including their bad ends.
Supposedly the true ending is suppose to blow your mind, but I wouldn't know about that.

You know the Shoujo heroine with two love interests formula just doesn't work well with me. You either have both be assholes, like in Fukumenkei Noise, and paint some tragic backstory for them to try and justify their behavior. Which, is probably breeding a generation of beaten housewives who have a romanticized image of men who desperately need therapy.
Or you have one nice guy and one complete asshole and the girl usually ends up with the asshole. Which is just really depressing and aggravating.

Pretty much zero chance, even though I would personally love to see a official localized version. It isn't quite zero though, the publishers have had a some titles localized and it has a hentai which means it has a little more name recognition.
Still though that is like 0.0005% chance of it being localized. -

^ Oh, the infamous soap opera disease?
I use to really fucking hate the "soap opera disease", but than I saw the ending of SAO season two and decided that it was a much better alternative.

Well dealing with visual novels that have "foreign" characters one should not expect a realistic depiction, one should expect a character archetype. Just like how you are not going to find a "tsundere" or "coodere" out in the wild, you are not going to see "foreigner" archetype in real life.

If you are going to read Kara No Shoujo I would recommend reading Cartagra first, it takes place before Kara No Shoujo..... and yes it is a good series.

Something i wanna watch is Kimi no Nawa, but it just came out in theatres last August. Seems to be one of those body switching romance types
But man having a 9.32 MAL rating from 177k voters is insane
It's definitely a good movie, it didn't quite leave as big as an impression on me as other people. I found the "romance" aspect, between the two leads, rather abruptly injected into the plot with little build up and the ending felt unnecessary. Nothing that horribly harmed the experience for me though and I can certainly see why many would call it "perfect".

You don't have that? That's kinda need-to-know stuff. o.O
Well shit. Guess you'll have to take that day off.
I'd recommend holding on to your checkbook when you get it; this probably won't be the last time you need it.
Your right of course, it's just usually I pay all of my living expenses and tuition at the start of the school year, than I go back to my hometown to work so the bank is nearby with all my info.
It's just the bizarre way this class is set up that I have to pay for two halves in two completely different ways, half online and half with a physical form of payment.
EDIT: Managed to persuade an ATM to give me my money, but had to pay $15 in withdraw charges. Eh, at the very least it's cheaper then the gas required to drive over to my bank.

Well, if you have to go that far out of your way to visit a bank, you might have to order some checks. Not sure how much time you have to make the payment, but it should get there in a decent time frame.
Tried that, realized I don't have the paperwork with my bank account information and my bank will only give you your account numbers in person.
Fucking kill me.

Just now, Kenshin_sama said:
Would you be able to withdraw at a bank? A teller should be able to help you out.
Hehehe, that's the kicker the Bank of America that my account was stationed at was bought out by a smaller bank that only has a presence in a handful of cities and I take classes on a campus that is several hours away from the nearest one. Granted I could still do as you suggest, but I would have to miss some classes since they are only open on week days.
My suspicion is that I may have tried to withdraw too much money from a atm at a single time, so I'ma going to try dividing up the total amount and do several smaller withdraws. If that doesn't work I'll probably just have to bite the bullet and miss some class time.

Fucking hell, I needed $650 to finish paying off all of my fees for an upcoming geology camp that I need to finish my degree. The problem is I can't pay with my card, only with cash or checks. I have never used checks and all the atms fucking hate me. So I may not be able to graduate because I only used debit to buy things. FUCK

More or less my reaction at the original film, yes. Unfortunately, I have neither the time nor patience to proceed with the rest of the lot, so that's just one more of those stories I don't plan on experiencing.
Sad, but completely reasonable. Kara no Kyoukai sets on one of the thrones of my personal holy anime trinity, along with Steins;Gate and Haibane Renmei, for it's excellent animation, direction, and dare I say it..... unique story.
But it certainly has it's flaws. The movies are out of order for no real reason except to confuse the viewer, the dialogue has a tendency to meander waxing poetic for allot longer than it should, Azaka Kokutou doesn't die in a horrible limb ripping "accident", and the epilogue threatens to undermine the entirety of the second movie.

I wouldn't say this like it's a guarantee. They're probably registering a lot of domains to cover all of their bases, and I doubt they have firm plans to make every single one of those games.
True I think they registered P6-P10 at the beginning of the month, but at the very least it means it's on the table and by looking at the history of Atlus milking the persona series for all its' worth I would say there is at the very least a near guarantee that some of this list will be made. I remember Atlus talking about making a Persona 3 dancing game if P4 dancing all night sold well.

(heh, Persona 5 Racing all Night!)
You know you say that as a joke, but I could see mementos being a stealth test for the framework of a driving game.

Greeeeeeat. More dancing and fighting games ... Wheeeee
At the very least we get another persona q and hopefully one of those four P5s is something besides a fighting or dancing game.

Atlus registered these domains a few days ago.....

Dafuq there's been 24 pages of Persona crap over the years?
I'm too lazy to read so should i play P4G which has been sitting on my vita dust cabinet for decades or should i jump right into P5
I'm a P4G fanboy so of course I will recommend playing P4G, but by distancing myself from my fanboyism I would probably say just don't bother with the series. If you picked up P4G and didn't get absorbed enough to finish playing it, the persona series is probably just not for you.
Otherwise the game-play is incredibly similar, but each is a self contained story with pretty much zero reference to each other so it doesn't really matter.

Got up to ep11 of Death Note and, (sigh) I'm going to get soo much shit for this, but I don't really care for it. The foundation of the plot, the death note and the battle of wits, is interesting.... but none of the characters are engaging or anything approaching likable. So during scenes my mind wanders away from the characters dialogue and I start noticing all the animation hick-ups and plot holes I would usually ignore in a body of work that had characters I was invested in.
Although I have to say I find the "dramatic" bits, you know where they put most of their animation budget, fucking hilarious. If Renai Boukun is actually a Death Note Parody, I will have to watch it because it has the potential to be comedy gold.

Jesus Christ on a sandwich, I was bracing myself for Yahtzee's inevitable trashing of the game on zero punctuation like an asteroid was hurtling towards the Earth. Imagine my shock when he not only enjoyed the game, but nearly all of his criticisms I agree with.

Well, from a certain point of view, the very fact that the TL is a joke actually is a good reason for a C&C by itself. I wouldn't want something I'd worked on treated so shabbily.
That only applies if the company gives a shit about western audiences in the first place. The company has shown no interest in officially localizing any of their titles and none of their other titles have had an attempted fanpatch. So at worst the legal action was taken due to the company believing that pirates = fantranslations or an over-protectiveness of their intellectual property. At best it was due to fear of international law or the group was actively distributing pirated copies of the game on their website.
Either way the only thing they accomplished was crushing any hope of a potential market for their games outside of Japan, which admittedly they probably would have nothing to gain from.
Yeah, I know I'm just bitter.

Forgot that I had this laying around until today. Letting it expire seems like a waste, so I decided to give it to one of you fuckers.
First come, only one served.
