@ornate mantle 
lul

cgi-ed moving elements in background and stills are done pretty well, but dark scenes and the library scene im at now has too much film grain
characters are also pretty undetailed so far
no refining of lines
shading and lighting appears to be done well, but shadows and reflections are static

the bookshelf has more detail than the character 
Waver 
@cosmic pier 
watch the vid
||some point enty tries grabbing vestal and take off on her chariot (belonging to fate's rider) but instead just picks up her cap she put on vestal and vestal is like bruuuuh||

sandy is the chariot puller


and I thought I was getting ripped off when I paid 100$ for a 20 page artbook
yama sent me a number for a javelin research book (the oath one) and it was supposedly 'translated' but it was google translated
so I immediately close
๐ณ
not gonna research with google translate
haha

the black n white one has some meme 'localization'
colored one literally google translation
oh, you meant the colored one
ja
it wasnt episode 13
translation's not that bad, I actually thought the b&w one was worse due to grammar issues
also, if you want translations so bad they're funny
I'll see if I can find a kc urakaze doujin, where they translated hiroshima dialect into ghetto speak

ah it was ep 14
I still dont like how they offed Lancer
was expecting some goodshit fight on lancer x saber again
but poof

don't expect much when you're pausing
thats a spoiler
well, i dont mind spoilers at all tbh 
i watch animes thats hella old
so i know most plots by the time i actually watch them
Link to download from Dropbox without any YouTube compression - https://www.dropbox.com/s/vs5bk9egcjblkk5/Fate Zero OP 2.mkv?dl=0 (~400mb)
enjoy the op fish

ender did you watch the vid I sent
i actually have it on "watch later"
i love how they did fluid and particle effects tho

i dont really remember the openings
the Oath Sign by LiSA or To the Beginning by Kalafina
but prob first one
the video you sent me is oath sign
the one i sent to fish is kalafina
warspite as gil
please
it should be yamashiro
cos her xmas skin has literal gates of babylon
i scrubbed thru the lisa op
a lot of scenes and animation were computer generated
you can see the ghosting, low detail long distance renders which suddenly gets better as the scenes zoomed in.
still hella respectable tho
with its fast pace, everything is really smooth and fluid
I bet you're one of those people who speculate someone is gonna die just cuz they aint in the opening

why would i do that 
idk man
ops are spoilers
especially madoka's op 
i like how they did javelin's part
i dont pay enough attention to what happen in the opening songs of stuff and just look around and Im like oh ok
But i've seen people being like "dont watch season 2 episode 12's opening cuz one of the characters doesnt appear which is well gonna die"
i wonder why i downloaded part 1 and 2 when i already have the main series 
were there extra scenes or smth?

@cosmic pier ironically, you wouldn't have known about it, had said person not mentioned it
i played both videos at the same time
"yeah I noticed said character wasnt there and realised she gonna die"
this was dumb
people pay too much attention to shit lel
you can't trust ops
eiyuu unmei no uta
astolflo is from fate? 
welps time to never watch fate 
Mordred and Sisigo would have made better protags for FA
Discuss.
nah, i dont think i will pick it up.
my brief watch of episode 13
tells me that it aint gonna be my type of show
well, i like slice of life mostly. but erm, other than those, there opm, ngnl, shinseikai yuri, parasyte, inuyashiki etc
im quite a normie when it comes to anime
oh and i like one piece too 
I watched 2 episodes (of apocrypha) and I think in episode 2 astolfo was like a sex worker and ever since then ive just been so uncomfortable about that whole episode 
yups, one of my fav. great story and premise. i liked how the plots play out towards the end.
feck

gg
some of those sound familiar
i rarely have the time to sit down and watch anime tho
oh also
angel beats
ab was my second animu
aldnoah zero
me too cleve, thats why I stopped watching anime
til kawaa calls me cleve 
my first was erm... beelzulbub? unless u count pokemon and doraemon
i should rewatch all of doraemon 

well
my private trackers
dont have the full doraemon by far
not availble as well
someone get me an invite to animebytes please

thing about public trackers is that no one ever seeds 
when i download from public trackers, i make sure i seed at least 5:1 ratio 
takao, takao, baltimore, warspite, prinz, hood, warspite, baltimore 
sweet home never
@pearl abyss what do u need animebytes for
i pull whenever i have the coin
definitely more than 3 times a day
all them old shit that no one else has seeded BRs for 
well u expect shit there to be kept seeded?
its mandated
having a ratio over ur head changes nothing
old torrents that are dead are either archived or killed
i would pay for access but they dont even accept it
iirc animebytes keeps everything seeded, which is why its so hard to gain entry, cuz you have to prove that you will be contributing shit.
no good ones do
theres quite a number that you can pay for
I haven't watched anything in a long time, starting to lose motivation 
oh man, this brings back good memories
good old days when only the chosen ones could appreciate kouhai
wasn't having much fun even on day 1
"look, guys. new stuff.", and now it's all old stuff. the only decent map is SP
heck I haven't even unlocked B3 yet
had to rush before daily reset just to get B2 3x tokens
SP is where they put all the mechanics
i mean, it's called "hard mode" for a reason, right? don't be afraid to make it a bit of a challenge
so much wasted potential
45 escorts, all enemies, deploy less or equal than 8
no idea. they have bases that spawn new ones
eww 3*ing sp
and a little warning:
they are boss nodes
next time i'll wipe everything with my boss fleet
they are 110

btw sirens deal 3 damage to your base
bisko
i am not going to 3-star this
actually its first time I saw evil
the amount of oil you have to put into it is just obscene
and its from when general wasnt nuked lol
little did we know the actual new lolicon thing is gonna be "let's lolify... EVERYTHING"

evil sounded like such a shite person back then
then he nuked gen
then he got cool

he sent me a pic of his heckin gun
pinged in offtopic
was like imma shoot you or sth

one of the few mods I could consistently find online and not on busy or sth
to report to
now like half of them sits on "appear offline"

and the other half got demoted kek
lol
wait, does SP even appear from doing normal
well fuck, I'll have to buckle up and push myself to clear then I guess
it has two enemy strongholds. you have to destroy them both to clear the map
ill get to SP eventually, cuz i want the medal, but oof 110

cause life is pain?
in theory, you can clear it with 4 battles
uh

but the second one is a boss, and it hurts
it's a node
you move on top of it, hit attack
then you fight and win
(probably)
and then you are still locked onto that node, because it doesn't disappear
oh rip, i just realized i only completed BS2, fuck, i wasted all that oil on fully clearing the map
and you have to hit attack again and fight
oh
dammit
well
but the second time it's a boss
you get 40 stars per stronghold and a bunch of stars for clearing the map
i think i got 785
i assume it's 800 if you clear it at full base health
good thing we only got 42k or sth to clear the shop then
... wait
it's an hq defense?
suddenly, completely flaccid
and sirens take off 3 HP, so have fun
also
the subs actually move
and yes, there are subs
110 subs
yes, that's the map
and this means?
i don't know
if they keep spawning, you can't get 3 stars
oh, wait... you can
but it's a pain in the butt
oh shit, my first sub appeared in B3, i hope i have antisub gear equipped or im fucked
actually, i think i have depth charges but no sonar, dammit
the only subs you "have" to fight are the ones in SP, and only if they catch you
unless you want to 3-star a map and it happens to spawn a sub, which is random
yea, but im using to lowest level fleet i can for oil costs and also im levelling up cruisers for ibuki as i do the event so, ill lose a lot of health just waiting around
i think ill just do the clear all fleets mission next time around after i can make sure to have some sonar equipped
still no sight of birmi or alabama
cubes down the shitter, event ticking away
and right after all this shit, we're getting more of the same with 1 year anni build

i'm down to 250 cubes, and it annoys me
I can't motivate myself at all to deal with this grind
and as if shit wasn't annoying enough
all the 5-8 cube commis keep giving me only minimum 5
regular cube commis hardly ever proc and when they do, they consistently give just 1
happened 8 times in a row now
cal 
but a daily commi with a chance at drill?
imma send you all my 500 cubes
constant perfects
literally everything in the game right now is kicking me over

at this rate I might not even bother buying cubes as last resort
cause going by the current state of affairs, I'd propably just throw them away to pull a belfast
if i end up missing a single limited ship, i will no longer roll for completion, only for ships i actually want

๐ฎ
Looks like I ducked just in time
you have to destroy it to be able to move again
I mean
on the flip side
I'm assuming it's the same as it was earlier on hq defense
it's just a node that requires two battles
since you're not moving your fleet and just battling
it means the enemy skips their turn
so when a fleet spawned on top of you, it actually meant you got an extra turn
unless they fixed that already
it's really dangerous if you don't pay attention to your ammo and move in with just one though
wouldn't know, they dont tell us shit what those hotfixes are meant to fix most of the time 
because that boss battle is not trivial
hmmm...
actually
this might be a good time as any
to let the KMS roll
we did get that aux on bismarck that reduces ammo penalty
only bismarck
leave the others at home
i went with a kms fleet and it had trouble
backliners might work, but i'd get better frontliners
i went completely unprepared and lost two ships
oh lawd
a KMS fleet without enterprise

the madmen, they finally did it
They finally have the technology
/s
zeppy is cute though 
she doesnt have big ol honkers tho
lewd
are you saying zepperlin's chibi aint cute
you're a heretic
and I shall purge you
ok i admit, big zeppy's chibi is pretty cute
the tierlist in my heart

i like seeing the chibis dance animations
azu!
that one's the loli
is there any reason to farm sp?
are you gonna roll for alamaba?
i assume points
oh wait ive never put Graf on the trampoline
ah idc about maxing points
but if theres like gear or a ship drop
perfection


get boss hp to 0 

are you planning on autoing the boss or manual?
please no rei advice one of him is enough 
maunal
i tried to manual but died lol
the big red bullets are literally impossible to dodge doesnt help that the fucking ship cgs block the entire bloody screen as well
you probably want some really tanky ships in frontline and 2hu it
here's my completely non-meta fleet
okay i'll redo my fleets and have a nother go
porty yukikaze huh
my nanoda isnt up to scratch ๐ข
under leveled?
if you do manual portland should be enough
if that's nonmeta then what is meta 
yeah and im not sure shes full skill either
if ur fights are too long ur frontline may be tanking too much dmg for the extended duration
whats ur backline
ya stacking dps is pretty important
like throw a bunch of op ships on backline lol
ya thats what i thought i did..
what ships
lemme see
DoY monarch enty
all over lvl 100
what should the level be
i think iwill replace DoY with unicorn xd
oh ya as long as they're geared that comp should be sufficient
meta ships should be at least 110 if not 115+
b./c theyre typically used in pvp too
lol i have like no ships over 110
but it's w/e
ya if i did pvp
this requirements are so shitty
are u running 6 ships?
oh wait
yes 12
in fact
whos dying
boss fleet
me
ur flagship or ur vanguard
what dev lvl is your monarch?
do u get close to completing? if so maybe u can swap a illust in
i think i should use fleet 1 for boss not fleet 2 lol
idk where to put helena but her skill didnt proc last time stupid ship[
if ur not close then probably have to think some more
what is synergy even
well there's the helena radar synergy
thats what i tried and failed 
bunch of attacks that fire at the 20s intervals
and u try to nuke them
fleet synergy is only important for pvp and ex mode high scores 
so for ur screenshot is it ur top or bottom the boss fleet
bottom right?
bottom ya
What stage we talking here?
Eldridge got me through that pretty nicely
i never use eldride i dont even think shes lvl 100
before the fight make sure helena is protected in the center
oh ya eldridge would be pretty strong
My core is Eldridge Portland for frontline survival, Unicorn in backline benefits too, from there i just outlive and nuke the boss with Nagato.
err pellets?
i thought to swap belfast with sirius
or actual bb shells
pellets
fuck that red shit mannn
compl;etely ruined vanguard hp
but i had no support from main fleet
i think lusty will help a lot
i didnt really know what to expect so
finally
i can play the first 15 seconds of the login music

is your dog dead trying to listen to you yet
well i havent gotten to physically playing it
but i managed to make it sound similar enough
only an entire minute left to go
ok lets try this shit again
i have akaga and nugget i could have used that lol

maybe try a lead ship w/ med armor if u dont have portland
like minnie or mogami
those two + ayaya + yukikaze + helena for boss a
or... kizuai ca
no my porty is pog
i dont have any kizuna at all
oh that/s good
i want to get london to max too :(
london light armor tho
but i cant even afford the plates required for her skill
ah
so she'd probably be put in the middle
i actually forgot she had a second skillxd
because 40 plates is a shit ton
yeah im in a weird spot
i either have like 300 t3 aux
or 50
i either have 20 or 0
oof


fucking barely made it
just siriuse lived in frontline
why cant real takao be this good wtf
how about I use top fleet for boss
should I use nugget or amagi probably amagi huh
because otherwise i have no bloody defense for vanguard
30 sedconds
top fleet is nearly perfect for bosses
do not take out nagato. her synergy with akagi and kaga is too good
the three of them together hit like several trucks

okie
this atago is no Fricking joke
yeah..
why did we get stuck with the bad takao smh '
yea
not that i know what an alter really is since i never played fate

gah none of my other heavy cruisers come close to portland in stats
wish the ijn ones werent so terrible
i wouldn't call them terrible, but they're certainly not great - unless they are mogami kai
and even she needs some serious gear
i missed out on mogami kai 
Every nation is better with specific things
Just how it is buddy
Mix and match if need be
an ijn double torp ca could do well if you kit her with an oxy and a washing machine. she'd benefit from nagato.
but as a raw tank, portland kai definitely wins
ca would have to be very high in level as well
yeh
its alright
i just like putting them together 
sister ships together
and national navies
Kek
If I did it like that it would be only EU
grats
same royal navy all the way
its already like that
if you're having trouble and you lack raw power, look for potential synergies
i barely ever use ijn and kms
Well thats cause those two are balanced
Besides Iโm a gun man so me staying EU was no surprise
Arsenals too good
saratoga is so good too
DOKO MITERUNOOO
ad nauseum
but those shells destroy mobs
sara is cute 
I use this comp on auto, not for 3* runs but is stable even on max danger
langley?
lex
i dont think i have any of those vanguards lmfao
lexingotn ya sorry
A mix of ijn and EU
is that yukikaze?
I keep forgetting you guys are still lacking in the essex department
Ye
i cant tell the other two
Yukikaze Helena Jintsuu
looks like yuki, but could be nick
that helena skill alwayus gets me
and no jintsuu cuz lazy shikikan
skin*
Idk why the resolution is so bad
helena skin*
was gonna say
i mistyake her for saint louis
did u microwave the picture first haha
It's a DPS focused fleet with buffed up Yuki to buy enough time for the frontline
Easy S on auto and max danger
Didnโt you guys get 120
Yep
yeah, we do have that
How many 120s do you have
This type of strat is effective on 12-4, too
i lvl my ships kinda evenly tho
for boss
I have three at 120 and a good bunch from 110-119
id feel bad using a ship at 120, wasting exp
Nah
i have no ships at 120
Easy to farm for stuff
Well when we get 130...
i have nine. it takes too dang long to get them to 120.
even my skills are scuffed as all hell
I just want retros already
i dont even have entys skill at lvl 10
or ayaya
noo
hate red skills
yeah not enough red books lol
too many new ships
retros is a weird way to spell alters, evil
tf is the deal with red books anyway

Man
why those skills out of all
Are you legit spreading skills evenly too?
ya
cant
every week a new one is more important
Nope
when i was little, i tried to build one boss fleet and one mob fleet, then branch out a little to increase my options
all my meta ships have lvl10 skills
Its not important if it ainโt at ten

except some that got stuck at lvl9 that i forgot to finish
i throw everything out the window to get china wall to lvl 10
Spreading resources out is a waste
just got yat sen left
at the moment i havee KGV and prinz (lol) in there and yat sen
i cant wait to throw them at world 11
probably just grumpy cuz they couldnt level them up
Maybe
chinaball too strong, nagakaga perfectly balanced ๐
Right
feels soo good to see ping hai and ning hai both at lvl 100 with all skills lvl 10
what happened to chinabotes? 
Then it took ages for kms to get something op
destroy boss in 10 seconds

You could take them and slap stomp anything
as it should be
It was a great day
its a lot of investment xd
Hell they were only good for pve
Mhm
they were fairly expensive to build, yeah. double kai, all the skills, oil cost for 1:3
ya this nagato got me through d3
riiight then let's try again properly
ungeared>
?
ya LOL
lmao
i forgot to gear her
this time she gets a shell
lmao
her barrage is so ridiculous
it took like 15x off the boss
it just wipes out everything
proced once
and then new stuff spawns in
even with no gun
insane
and it dies as well
blessed loli
i need to oath her man
Long live the fluffy fox maiden
i love her cv
its so cute
so
whats special about lexy
are there suicide boats in the hardmode stages
i havent done mine yet
in event?
a small amount
none to speak of really
so still need a bb backline? or solo CV ok
wtf is that
i tink solo cv would be ok
its nagato but better

based waifu fleet tbh
anti-air is somewhat relevant if you're trying to save oil. if not, you won't even notice the planes are there
nah my question was unrelated
i was just wondering if it was time to lvl my enty
@ revy
might be a good idea
mine is only like 112
I got away with solo Enty
I think youll be ok
Just pick your fights
Don't be too greedy for exp lol
red means dead
no u
wish i had infinite oil and ammo for that
Just being your 120s to curb stomp
oh yeah i could have used subs in d3 huh
yeah set ur sub fleet if u havent already
they would help in the boss
i havent lolll
even if u dont actively deploy it's still some dmg
its actually impossibel to keep up with skills
i would pay a lot of gems for more books and slots
i stopped buying purins w/ medals
and started buying books instead
just buy both
i try to buy both uwah

medals are hovering around 120 ish
i dont really need to buy purins anymore from medal shop
i only use whites for enhancing and retire everything else
are u gonna go for border?
ive been burning all my pvp points recently
i already had ~12 purins save pre-pvp shop
and i can get 4-6 more depending on if i need more bulins
i only regret not doing pvp when event time comes around
pvp is aids
total
you sorta gotta follow the reset times in order to get peak sandbag in
for optimal points
otherwise if u mess up or forget to do it u 100% wont get gensui
gensui?
the top pvp rank
for a 2k point bonus
i think
i would never get that ever lol
oh it's 2.5k
nvm
except no one is forcing you to sandbag or try for gen 
yeah also tons of resetting against meta fleets
the problem is ur eventually gonna afk too hard
and lose to a fleet
i dont like playing vs other people
even if this is just auto
well yeah
then you afk too hard and dont notice which hiryuu procced passive first
so u restart to be safe
1 more clear to go
Heh

i wish this event came with a fun aux or weapon
the passport and centaur fighter doesnt count
something to motivate doing the stages
oh yeah we got a plane
i forgot
you ever get a teacher who asks for 1.5 line spacing and double spacing for the same assignment

wtf
lol
how does that work
Take the mean. 1.75 line spacing
i like revy because senko is blessed
like does the email say one thing and the prompt say another
You will need to navigate through the several sites and answer the questions on a single document (12 point font, 1.5 spacing)
(All parts assigned in RED- IIa, b, c) should be typed, double spaced, Times New Roman font, size 12, 1โ margins.
or what
top of the page says 1.5, bottom of the page says double
im gonna assume she wants MLA so ig ill go double
just double space the stuff in red
all the questions are the stuff in red

think of it as if you're writing up a visual novel
tell the teacher s/he/it gets one of the papers according to the route they take

I'm more of an 11pt guy than a 12pt guy, but different strokes for different folks

how many mag torps yall have
i have the rainbow and the gold quad that u were guaranteed to get
but only another gold quad from boxes
i have like 2?
y is my rng so weird lol
I have the rainbow, three gold quad, one gold quint, and two purple trip
oh i just meant the gold and above
Gold quint is pretty much flat out worse than gold quad, but I leveled it anyway
god damnit
this dude's southern accent made me think he said they subsisted on honey but he was saying hunting the whole time
So many torpedo plates
lol
kinda nice that sub torps use torp plates
+10 was easy
as long as there was gold heh
where is razzles 
Honestly, the purple trips aren't bad
Purple triple mag torp has a very fast reload, which is some compensation for the loss of damage
It is kind of a wet noodle, though
or at least it feels that way
putting wet noodles on subs are we 
heh i wish
understandable
nah it's the vanguard ones
ah you said triple
i use magtorps ebven if im manualing xd
T3 triple torps, as a whole, are surprisingly decent. The only weak one is the T3 533mm non-homing, and that's entirely because it's a blue rarity and can't go past +6
kinda nice to get them all to hit the same target if everything goes right
but T3 trip 610mm and T3 trip magnetic are usable
isnt blue t2
Kind of
I had to whale cubes to get birmy
tier lists lmao
Because she's a prick
i see
i want to whale cubes too but
Basically if you look at an equipment's details in game, you see its T-rating in the top right corner
Pretty much all T3 torps are usable except for the ones that are blue or lower rarity
because blue rarity means that you're forever limited to +6 instead of +10
and that really hurts damage potential
yea
These include the T3 twin 610mm and the T3 triple 533mm nonmag
that loading screen is amazing
