I had to. It's a goddamn space submarine.

Okay, okay. Episode 13 of Yamato 2199... Dimensional submarine. Dimensional. Fucking. Submarine. This show makes me feel like a kid again, I'm so in love.

Ended up getting caught up on Hestia. Fun show. The fight scene with the minotaur was well-executed and really good, quite unexpectedly so. I also like how Bell's attire is constantly changing. It's a nice touch to the whole "adventurer" thing. Still watching about and episode of Yamato 2199 a day. On episode 12 now.

Fakku Going Legitimate: A Ray Of Hope For Hentai Manga?
nohman replied to Nosebleed's topic in Anime/Manga Talk
I'm not a part of the fakku userbase, so this change doesn't really affect me in the immediate sense. I'll be interested in seeing how this turns out though. I'd wager they'd go the doujin-moe route of things, alongside selling physical prints of stuff. I wonder how fast they'll be able to release new content with whatever model they adopt. I'm a pretty voracious reader when it comes to translated stuff, grabbing up most of the new stuff that gets added to sadpanda daily. I kinda don't expect this to have any impact at all, besides fragmenting the community. -

Request and Poll: Ability to delete posts

I can just imagine you writing a semi-long post with the reasons behind saying no, but then just deleting it and going with the snark. -

Only a single episode, but the conceit there is that all that RPG stuff is due to being stuck in an MMO, right?

Since I'm pacing myself with Yamato 2199, I started watching Hestia in the mean time. There's a novelty in seeing the mechanical side of RPGs played (relatively) straight as real world phenomena . Also, fan service.

So I just watched episode 9 of Yamato 2199, "A Clockwork Prisoner" and I want to write down my thoughts on it real quick. This is probably my favorite episode so far in terms direction. While the themes of "can robots have feelings," and "what does it mean to be human" have obviously been done to death in these kind of stories and there's not really much to take away from them anymore, this episode does an awesome job at establishing and maintaining a mournful and frantic tone that really makes the episode for me. Speaking visually, there are a few absolutely gorgeous and eerie shots at the end with Analyzer standing on the bridge of the Yamato against the backdrop of a star. There's also some pretty cool cuts to a radio dial while everything is being wrapped up and book-ended. The thing that really made the episode was how Alter was characterized though. He was inarticulate and like a child. In a lot of these kind of stories, like Blade Runner for example, the robots are designed to be human, they're very communicative, and you get the feeling they're trying to convince the other characters that they're more than just circuitry and programming. Here, it's the opposite. There is not a question of subterfuge. We don't get much, other than the sense that Alter is trying to make sense of things. He never tries to justify his existence to the viewer and during his escape, he's just frantically moving forward leaving the other characters to fill in his motive. Combine this with the composition of the episode - the music, all the little cool shots, the whole "friend" thing in Alter's task logs, and the "Heart of Observer" parable that's related throughout the story - it was an episode that really left an impression on me. /end fanboy

^^^ Very much appreciated, Kuro. Looks better than I imagined. Seriously, you rock.

The best moment was when the Ubisoft presentation ended. I thought I was going to die from the cringe.

^^ I thought Princess Evangile was pretty good for a light read, though it's the very definition of mediocre in my opinion. (As always) Best girl didn't even get a route.

Still working my way through Asuho's route.

He's still in high school iirc, but you probably couldn't tell because of his transcendental, dope-ass (old man) taste in anime. Anyways, have a great one dude.

What Are You Watching: Movie and TV Show Edition
nohman replied to Zenophilious's topic in General Discussion
Finished Orange is the New Black. This season was better than season 2, though there wasn't really anything too explosive. The final episode felt more like a midseason finale more than anything. I've been watching The Story of Film: An Odyssey this week. Up to episode 6. Really interesting, educational stuff. Totally recommend it if you're interested in film and film history. Also started watching 666 Park Avenue, a doomed show that while has an interesting premise on paper, has so far been unimpressive. The leading couple have excellent chemistry though. -
^^ You're were doing me a huge favor by just attempting anyway, so don't worry about it and thanks for trying.
