(ppl said WIT had financial issue or something like that at that time, no real confirmation though)

[thorn briar]

I thought this was jinshi last week and it's not or will that be another scene

Oh wait

Jinshi appeared now

[somber relic]

[dry moon]

What is this shitpost

[thorn briar]

She's his mom

Why is she leaving then

[slender skiff]

||It's never explicitly confirmed, but that's the implication||

[thorn briar]

[dry moon]

I want more of the villainess who steals the heroine’s heart

Each chapter is only 4 pages but it’s so good

[boreal oyster]

meh

hardcopy manhwa is expensive

[stable herald]

wait huh

Is this normal

oh wait

it loaded quite slow

[slender skiff]

Breh

[stable herald]

???????????????????????????????

[somber relic]

I can wait for the digital release at least (copium)

[stable herald]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/528197562998718474/1045630685987209236/kek.gif

I love her reaction

[boreal oyster]

digital?

that's literally on webtoon

legendary naruto hoax

[slender skiff]

Kekw

[boreal oyster]

44$ monopoly

[stable herald]

I thought I was drunk but that naruto looks like he have boobs

[zinc lance]

ah that one

[stable herald]

fuckin hilarious

its gold dumpster fire

[zinc lance]

hehe sure is

[somber relic]

I mean it literally, something like this

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1159776313326960691/1159776550854606859/Americano_Exodus_-_Americano_Exodus_121_Digital_anon_-_4.webp?ex=658e8a15&is=657c1515&hm=75f707f885a1120662c32454239ed41a776d4a066cbe4994873434f3ef5f8a7e&=&format=webp&width=702&height=498

this is originally in long strip format

and then it got licensed in physical book format

and then it got a digital scan based on the physical page like this

you can see there

[somber relic]

and this is the preview of Terror Man vol. 1 from Ablaze

see

I know what I'm talking about here

[dry moon]

Isn’t that the man succubus manga

Erebus?

What’re they called

Incubus

[somber relic]

yes

[stable herald]

yes

[dry moon]

I need to reread that

[stable herald]

go for it

The plot itself...no fuckin plot

but the characters in the manga

is entertaining

[slender skiff]

https://vxtwitter.com/seiyuucorner/status/1736400868768145913?s=19

[somber relic]

I bet lot of you never heard of Rainbow before

[dry moon]

It oooks old

[somber relic]

also they really have to mention Black Bullet among all of things

I guess Kagetane was a major character there so it was fair to be included in the list

[stable herald]

kagetane is such an annoying fucker

But hes such a good villain

[stable herald]

and wdym, not like the series is bad tho...Well other than its a loli bait

[somber relic]

in a scuffed anime adaptation of novel that most likely will never have an ending unless there is a miracle happening somehow

[somber relic]

it wasn't bad until you realized just how rushed the anime adaptation was, it was so awful they literally skipped a lot of major point from the novel and make the story make no-sense at all

[stable herald]

I dont read the novel. So thats the reason?

[somber relic]

the anime got carried by the visual and Shiro Sagisu's music

[stable herald]

oh

new message

so basically bad adaptation from novel

Yeah, I can see that the series got quite the good settings already

[somber relic]

and what make it worse, the novel hiatus for almost a decade, a lot of site already consider it as cancelled already

the author simply went AWOL

https://twitter.com/Siden_K

author's twitter acc

last tweet in 2015

[stable herald]

Dude just KIA'd 💀

Holy shit his twitter is themed a bit of military, my joke aged properly

lmao

[somber relic]

well, action manga artist and having interest with military stuff isn't that strange

oh well this guy isn't technically a manga artist but still

anyway

Black Bullet was a sad series (literally)

[stable herald]

good but sad (agree)

[somber relic]

he also already removed his blog site http://kanzakisiden.blog.fc2.com

[stable herald]

Poor dude, got the yakuza chasin him

[somber relic]

dude just decided to disappear from internet completely

[somber relic]

at least I was hoping he didn't committed suicide or smthing like that

anyway we most likely will never know the truth

it just happen

Japanese manga/novel that suddenly went AWOL like this

[stable herald]

Oh wait, its a normal or uncommon thing?

[somber relic]

if you dive deep enough you can find three or four similar cases

at least I got another two manga titles which I really like that got cucked because of this

so it's not a common case, but not very rare either

[stable herald]

[somber relic]

https://anilist.co/manga/30426/Pumpkin-Scissors/ this

and this https://anilist.co/manga/54450/Kiba-no-Tabishounin-The-Arms-Peddler

[stable herald]

status hiatus

ouch

[somber relic]

at least the author of Arm Peddler still have activity on internet, but it seems like the artist just disappear for whatever reason

[stable herald]

Damn, classy series

Also

Demon lord got quite the firepower

[stable herald]

Yeaaaahhhh no....this doesnt work in a battlefield...Goodluck

[cedar furnace]

Born too late to storm the beaches of Normandy, born too early to go to space, born at just the right the right time to see the official enlisted Instagram account post a picture of an anime NKVD officer

[stable herald]

working advertisement

But mfker what even rifle is that 😭

[cedar furnace]

Svt with a drum mag. Prototype irl and a gold order weapon in game

[stable herald]

I WAS ABOUT TO SAY ITS SVT LMAO

tq

I was about to say its like a cursed child of ppsh and svt, just because of the drum mag

[cedar furnace]

Here's a picture of it irl

[stable herald]

damn

Guess im too used with normal mag svt

OFC THE PETITE ONE IS THE OLDER SISTER LMAO

[cedar furnace]

Now that I think about how common is that?

Like legitimate question

[stable herald]

very

common

Idk why, its truly is a very common trope where the younger sister is more physically matured than the older sister

[cedar furnace]

Guess which one is the older sister?

[stable herald]

weird trope

[cedar furnace]

Agreed

[stable herald]

.....

white hair

lol

[cedar furnace]

Yep. Ots12 Tiss and ots14 groza

Tiss is like 4'5 and groza is somewhere in between 5'2 and 5'4

[stable herald]

I think the most illogical lookin siblings trope like that is the sisters from dress up darling

[cedar furnace]

Huh

[echo quiver]

i mean, her interpretation of this is hilariously effective

[stable herald]

GUESS WHICH ONE IS THE OLDER SISTER

YOU GOT IT CORRECT

[echo quiver]

remember that she uses fire magic, so she can literally blow off a limb and it'll cauterize itself

[stable herald]

yes

lmao

[cedar furnace]

Left

[stable herald]

yes

lmao

I...cant truly see the charm of that trope lmao

Even tho I do love oneesans

[echo quiver]

it's ironic

[stable herald]

yeah, there the humor sense of irony

[cedar furnace]

Here's one

Just one sec

[solemn pollen]

wait season 2?

[cedar furnace]

While I look for what I'm looking for what are their ages?

I'm curious

I'm gonna regret asking this

[stable herald]

OK SO-

[cedar furnace]

So.... what

[stable herald]

Older sister is 17, younger sister that looks like a fuckin milf is 15

[cedar furnace]

Oh

[stable herald]

Know whats funny, wiki says shes 12-15...so the age is not that verified

LMAO

[cedar furnace]

WHAT

How is that physically possible?

[stable herald]

.....

even if its genetic

its not possible LMAO

Unless

In a real world, its quite possible if the younger sibling born a prematured birth

They tend to grow bigger than the older siblings

BUT NOT TO THAT ANIME LOGIC EXTEND, mind you

lmao

Creepy piece of shit

[cedar furnace]

That looks like shit

[stable herald]

I thought its another boring evil antagonist becuz he resented mc or smth

BUT NAHH

Its a full fledge hardcore gay yandere

[cedar furnace]

This is why I say that the majority of anime is shit

And why I watch more western stuff

[stable herald]

I enjoys both

: )

Damn, is this normal..Im a fuckin english major student but right after first sem finished, I went back being dumb and makes typical error lmao

Well doesnt matter, its discord. why need formal english anyway

[cedar furnace]

Same. I enjoy good stories

[slender skiff]

Eh
I think that goes for any form of media?

[stable herald]

yeo

yep

Its always depend on the creator / director of what you're watching

Or if you're just shit at finding good stuff, yeah...would have a general bad view

Not aiming at you countryball

[cedar furnace]

I guess

[slender skiff]

It could just be that most anime isn't to your taste lmao

Which is perfectly fine

[stable herald]

But well, thats also a result of the factor that lets say, the said someone, truly enjoyed a completely different type of media, so they would put the same expectation to the new one they're trying out.

Sometimes its just those kind of mistake

Met some like that

[cedar furnace]

Well I don't lolicon, shortacon, genderbending, overly sexual stuff, furry stuff

How much does that eliminate?

[stable herald]

Soo like...tldr not into the dark side of anime genres

[stable herald]

Funnily enough....a majority of animes

[cedar furnace]

Is the Dark side just horny stuff?

[slender skiff]

Furry stuff are few and far between

So eh

[cedar furnace]

Good

[stable herald]

fucked up horny, it made you think 2 is not enough in the circa 1940s for Japan, at the same time you're scared if the 3rd one dropped, it would make their brain more fucked up

[slender skiff]

Overly sexual just puts out the ecchi

[cedar furnace]

I just like watching something for a story. If I want porn I'll look for porn ya know what I mean?

[stable herald]

yes, BUT

[slender skiff]

In total I'd say maybe 40% of anime by those criteria?
Closer to 60% if you're stricter lmao

[stable herald]

some anime do have both and its in great harmony

but quite uncommon tho

[slender skiff]

Generally

[cedar furnace]

I think the only horny thing I enjoyed was azur lane anime because it's so bad that it's good

[slender skiff]

The average anime watcher

Is probably going to enjoy shounen anime the most

So typical action anime

[cedar furnace]

Well I am a teenager

And a history buff hence why I watched a lot of history animes

But this year I've been trying to step out of my confort zone. Both socially and in stuff that i watch

[stable herald]

try that

for the funni

[slender skiff]

https://anilist.co/anime/161645/Kusuriya-no-Hitorigoto/

[stable herald]

lmao

But wdym socially

[slender skiff]

Well if you want historical

Maybe that anime would interest

[cedar furnace]

Trying not to be quiet

[slender skiff]

[cedar furnace]

And saying hi

[stable herald]

Ah so you're an introvert

...

[cedar furnace]

Yes

[stable herald]

an extreme one

Surprising an introvert like you is not least bit of a degenerate

[cedar furnace]

Not really. When I speak I usually say something stupid and get in trouble

[cedar furnace]

Is that uncommon?

[stable herald]

yes

[slender skiff]

Eh

Mitter you've just been here too long

[cedar furnace]

So introverts like lewd stuff?

[stable herald]

no

not lewd

what i meant by degen is like...having a not normal taste in stuff

[slender skiff]

Mitter are you speaking about yourself

[stable herald]

Ender, I am a degen, but trust me, im a very hyper mfker in college

Discord is just a place for me to relase my degeneracy

thus

the current me rn

[slender skiff]

[stable herald]

you cant contain me

at the same time im containing myself to not get banned from ALO

[cedar furnace]

I release degeneracy in private

[stable herald]

same

thats what i meant by, with discord

[cedar furnace]

Oh sorry "release"

[stable herald]

I dont randomly release my degeneracy on public or normal lads like a scum

[slender skiff]

[stable herald]

I have standards

[slender skiff]

I sure as hell hope you don't release stuff

[stable herald]

Ender please. I would be in prison if I release my degeneracy to public

Like literally, im the embodiment of "me and the bois"

[slender skiff]

[stable herald]

now now

I wont go deep into that

[slender skiff]

Cracking a cold one are we

[stable herald]

I do want to drink one

[cedar furnace]

But seriously what's that and how long?

[slender skiff]

You do say you like historical

And that anime is set in oldie china

[stable herald]

Anime that sets in the Dynasty era, I can say that it got stuffs accurate regarding to the era

[slender skiff]

It's an ongoing anime

Still airing

[stable herald]

So its satisfyingly knowledgeable

[cedar furnace]

Ah

[slender skiff]

Currently at 10 episode

We're due for 24 iirc

[stable herald]

oh wait

its 24 ep?

DAMN

[slender skiff]

It's definitely 2 Cours

But I can't remember if it's consecutive

[cedar furnace]

2 cours?

[slender skiff]

2x 12 or 13 episodes

[cedar furnace]

Oh

[silver robin]

It is

pretty sure all the 2 cour stuff this season is consec

[slender skiff]

Btw initial impression of Chitose is in the Ramune Bottle from halfway through volume 1

[silver robin]

which is nice

[slender skiff]

It's... Very unique

Your story is from the perspective of "the popular kid"

Like not in the sense of, oh the MC is more popular than he thinks

No he's just straight up the popular one period
And definitely has the air (arrogance) of one

...in other words, he's a normie

[thorn briar]

I will rewatch conan from episode 509

[quaint patrol]

as slow as amb anime is

it feels faster than manga

[silver robin]

yea cause you can 2x speed it

[thorn briar]

I like the mom now

Wait

She's weird

[pliant pendant]

Thoughts?

[thorn briar]

Did he return

[pliant pendant]

no but many have theories since he is based on Buddha

[thorn briar]

[pliant pendant]

Of course Gege is on the Sukuna hype train so we will likely see a new villain that Sukuna has to fight since noone can beat him anymore (imo)

[thorn briar]

I missed them

Akai's 1st appearance after they faked his death and the art is way too old

This is his disguise

[quaint patrol]

i might actually watch it at 1.25x

[cedar furnace]

Is the combatants will be dispatched good?

I've scrolled on to a lot of clips from a show with that name on insta

[flat cedar]

its alright

its made by the same person who made Konosuba

better than that stupid wrestler one he made

[thorn briar]

akai wanted to live in agasa's house at the beginning

But , conan told him to live in his house

Which is literally next to agasa's house

Oh wait

What conan did made it easier for akai to watch over haibara without her getting scared of him

[cedar furnace]

I heard that konosuba is just bad humor

[flat cedar]

??????

[thorn briar]

Konosuba is actually funny

New season when

[cedar furnace]

Look I'm just going off of what I heard

[thorn briar]

I said it's funny cause I watched it and I recommend it to you

[cedar furnace]

Tell me a joke from it

[thorn briar]

I don't remember, since I watched it like 4 years ago

Why is ran cleaning the kudo's house everytime she goes there

[zinc lance]

https://tenor.com/view/megumin-konosuba-explode-boom-gif-13780914

[thorn briar]

And sonoko says that they clean the house every month

[zinc lance]

is this a riddle?

[thorn briar]

It's just conan

Since I'm rewatching it

[zinc lance]

so it's a riddle

see ran is a clean freak

[thorn briar]

But , why would she clean someone else's house

[zinc lance]

exactly because she's a clean freak

[thorn briar]

[zinc lance]

it's dirty for her and she HAS to clean it

it's like those weirdos who start screaming when they see a plastic spider that's smaller then my nail

[thorn briar]

Spiders

Even sonoko is asking her why would she clean his house

The problem is she gets sonoko to help her clean it

[cedar furnace]

This is cute

[zinc lance]

def a max lvl cleanfreak

[cedar furnace]

Women☕ (I totally didn't just clean my house rn)

@thorn briar are you good bro you've been typing for awhile?

[thorn briar]

Yes

[dry moon]

Shir

[thorn briar]

I was just trying to repharse what I wanted to type

[dry moon]

[thorn briar]

Slimey

[thorn briar]

This actually looks bad and she have the keys too , and I think she shouldn't clean anymore especially that they might have something or things that they didn't want her see

[zinc lance]

just arrest her for trepassing

[thorn briar]

Can I let them arrest her for screaming

[zinc lance]

sure can if you are in germany

[thorn briar]

[zinc lance]

you aren't allowed to make loud noises here after a certain time

[thorn briar]

She screams whenever she sees a corpse and sometimes cry and alot of things

[zinc lance]

there is this place that has rooms with many cushions

[thorn briar]

And the most werid thing is that she ships conan with haibara

And she doesn't know that conan is her actual boyfriend

[zinc lance]

so she's a cuckhold too

man

she's weird

[thorn briar]

What does that mean

[zinc lance]

it's the ppl that watch their partner get the deed done with others and get horny from it

[thorn briar]

[zinc lance]

dunno if i spelled it correctly

anyways.
she's a max lvl cleanfreak
spontanous bouts of screaming
cuckhold

she clearly has serious issues

[quaint patrol]

this reminds me of the other series

the graduated from the academy and became an adventurer manga where he just makes people into burritos

to cheer up

[zinc lance]

ooh that one

but doesn't he just wrap a towel around their whole face?

[quaint patrol]

yea

[thorn briar]

Not conan telling haibara that holmes fans aren't bad , just to make her accept the fact that akai isn't bad

[zinc lance]

that's a real funny manga for sure

[thorn briar]

He's not back and he literally living in your house

[cedar furnace]

What did walk in on?

[thorn briar]

I just read that she took a bath with him as well but , as conan

[quaint patrol]

s2 part 2 opening is pretty nice theme

[quaint patrol]

wow someone who respects spoilers

this manga artist is so good tho

[ivory mauve]

https://tenor.com/view/that-was-a-low-blow-rainn-wilson-michael-stearns-utopia-utopia-tv-gif-18586531

[quaint patrol]

wym low blow

you put it in spoiler mode

[ivory mauve]

I know it's the page after that.

The utter shock

[quaint patrol]

btw, over 7 volumes

alya still ||doesnt confess, but she does very openly show her jealousy||

[ivory mauve]

This needs an anime. Just saying

[ivory mauve]

https://tenor.com/view/jim-carrey-ohcome-on-gif-7511567

[slender skiff]

Konosuba hinges off the fact that it's a parodies tropes that you usually see in adventure-fantasy shows

[quaint patrol]

the funniest volume is one of the not yet adapted volumes

[slender skiff]

Like instead of your MC being a strong, powerful gentleman

[cedar furnace]

So like a parody

[slender skiff]

He's just the weak, scum of the earth

It's not a parody because the story has a proper plot

[quaint patrol]

in vol 11 or vol 13 ||an enemy goddess who disses aqua converts kazuma to her side via her curse, but kazuma makes her life hell by being scum||

[slender skiff]

It's good because it goes against the grain and yet still tells a proper story

[slender skiff]

For me the funniest is any bit involving ||Iris|| tbh

[quaint patrol]

i last read konosuba a few years ago

ive forgotten iris scenes, but i remember iris

do you rly need to spoil that?

[dry moon]

She pads her bra

Is that a spoiler

[slender skiff]

That's Eris

[dry moon]

Oh

[slender skiff]

Not Iris

[dry moon]

Oops

[quaint patrol]

iris is ||the princess||

[slender skiff]

2 completely different characters

[quaint patrol]

iris has plenty of scenes with megumin in her later spinoff volumes i think

im dyslexic man

[slender skiff]

The one that for some reason looks up to this scum of the earth (MC)

[dry moon]

Darn

[quaint patrol]

the ||imouto|| character

[dry moon]

I can’t read konosuba

[quaint patrol]

i can

[dry moon]

40 chapter break on a certain site

[slender skiff]

Time to try light novels for a change

[dry moon]

Maybe I’ll learn Japanese so I don’t have to wait for translations

[quaint patrol]

there are already fan TLs for all volumes

[cedar furnace]

Isn't what's his name as weak

The guy with the two maids

[quaint patrol]

guy crimson?

what two maids in konosuba

[slender skiff]

The ReZero MC presumably

[quaint patrol]

no kazuma gets pretty resourceful

[slender skiff]

Kazuma is weak but extremely resourceful

[cedar furnace]

Yeah him

[slender skiff]

Also knows how to play the metagame

As for Subaru

[cedar furnace]

I remember the chart had a wee itty bitty bump

[slender skiff]

He's weak but has this power to "not die when he's killed" so

[cedar furnace]

That's called immortality

[quaint patrol]

kazuma also has the power to "not die"

[slender skiff]

Eh

[quaint patrol]

it's close enough

[slender skiff]

In either case it's less immortality

It's more infinite lives

[quaint patrol]

more resurrection

[dry moon]

Isn’t he from ttigraas

The gay dude

[quaint patrol]

what's ttigraas

[dry moon]

That time I got reincarnated as a slime

[cedar furnace]

That's immortality

[quaint patrol]

wtf

[dry moon]

I forget the other abbreviation

[quaint patrol]

he is from slime yes

[slender skiff]

No one calls it ttigraas pls

[dry moon]

Tensura

Yes

Right?

[slender skiff]

Tensura or at least call it the slime isekai

There's only 2

[dry moon]

More than that

Oh

[slender skiff]

Well not in the same sense

[dry moon]

Reincarnated as a slime yes involving slimes no

[cedar furnace]

Explain

[slender skiff]

Think about it this way

Subaru's power is like having infinite lives in a Mario game

Your attempt ends if you're killed

But you can still try again

[dry moon]

That’s a good metaphor

[slender skiff]

It doesn't stop you from "dying"

[cedar furnace]

That's immortality

[slender skiff]

Immortality in the sense of a Mario game would be like
You don't die when hit by a Koopa

Or bullet bill

Etc

[cedar furnace]

That would be invincibility

[slender skiff]

And can continue on your merry way

[cedar furnace]

Oh wait you mean like dying still hurts

[slender skiff]

Yes

Traumatically so

ReZero makes a point to make almost every death a horrendous experience

[dry moon]

Immortality is being killed and then kind of coming back together whereas invincibility is nothing can harm you in the first place

[slender skiff]

Konosuba has Kazuma revive a few times too, though his reincanation there is... Played more for jokes

[dry moon]

And rezero is more of a time paradox or something

Not much of a paradox but

[slender skiff]

ReZero is just a serious fantasy

Konosuba is a comedy

[cedar furnace]

And what's that one that ppl got piss off at

[slender skiff]

Ofc that's kinda overgeneralising 2 of the best isekai anime

ReZero

Because turns out western audiences can't stand a weakass MC that whines all the time

[dry moon]

What’re your thoughts on to your eternity

[cedar furnace]

if that's the best then we might be scraping the bottom of the barrel

[slender skiff]

And I'll give you that

He's absolutely whiny AF in the beginning

Who wouldn't be
The difference is that he gasp
Grows and becomes.... Not whiny

[slender skiff]

Oh no, that's the general feel

They're the some of the OGs of the subgenre really

So they set the bar to begin with

[cedar furnace]

Oh look a VA appared on my for you page. At least I'm assuming it's a VA
https://twitter.com/AlexisTiptonVA/status/1736416213507420231?t=EWvG7QXDrmc-GIdqZkVY0A&s=19

[cedar furnace]

Ah gotcha

@slender skiff thank you for always answering my questions

[slender skiff]

And yes that is a dub VA

[quaint patrol]

i imagine dying affects your psyche

[slender skiff]

I mean he goes through a whole trauma arc

[silver robin]

forgot the star power

[slender skiff]

In arc 2

[silver robin]

although you can still die via suffacation with it

[slender skiff]

And then in arc 3, it seems to be that he ||isn't resetting to a save point but instead to being transferred to an alternate timeline||

[silver robin]

is that spoiler covered in the anime yet

[cedar furnace]

I remember south park touched up on that

[slender skiff]

S2

[silver robin]

i don't want to click it without confirmation

[slender skiff]

Of the anime

[silver robin]

ok

[cedar furnace]

No really

[slender skiff]

I don't think it's explicitly confirmed if that's the case

[silver robin]

na i don't think so

[slender skiff]

Or if it's just part of the witch's trial

[cedar furnace]

Guys I've been permanently scarred

[somber relic]

western audience just love to complain at everything (look at frosty for example)

[somber relic]

Bleach and Inuyasha was the true OG of isekai anime tho lmao

especially Inuyasha

[slender skiff]

To be fair

No one really marketed them as isekai

Probably cos it was just a cool idea for fantasy and not the overused trope it is today

[somber relic]

sure Bleach's isekai arc only started in the second major arc of the anime/manga, so the starting premise wasn't isekai

Inuyasha is different story though

[somber relic]

or more like "Isekai/Tensei" term become popular and slapped in the title of a novel was the real mistake

look at older manga, or even western novel that use "transported to another world" as the premise

Narnia's original title wasn't "I got transported to the world of Narnia"

but the company (Syousetsu and the gang) able to manipulate the market

and weebs act like a brainless sheep keep mindlessly consuming garbage provided by them

[somber relic]

also, these days anything that is popular and easy to imitate becomes an overused trope.

you probably aware of the trend of NTR-bait romcom novel

one title got viral and suddenly lot of titles with similar premise popping out of nowhere

[silver robin]

yeppega

[somber relic]

Japanese WN market is simply so fucking braindead, even deserve the hard R-Word

[slender skiff]

Can we go back to the days of siscon bait

[cedar furnace]

Siscon?

[silver robin]

oreimo author's newest work pausers

[cedar furnace]

Oreimo

[slender skiff]

Incest bait

[cedar furnace]

Ew

[slender skiff]

Tho I guess there was a time where it was popular

[cedar furnace]

Wait is that one star eye thing incest?

[slender skiff]

Eh no

[silver robin]

na it still is popular ish

[slender skiff]

That's just people memeing

[silver robin]

except without the actual blood relation part

[somber relic]

I wish Syousetsu can go bankrupt already (probably impossible unless the company got cucked by some scandal or smthing like that)

[cedar furnace]

Oh thank god

[silver robin]

fellow kakuyomu enjoyer pausers

[slender skiff]

Not as popular as when Imouto Sae Iiraba Ii and stuff was still in publication...

[silver robin]

although its also full with isekai number 1873482137

[cedar furnace]

Ok I will admit the hapsburg jaw meme made me laugh

But then shit went too far

Like WAAAAAY too far

But then I pretended that it didn't exist and remembered that I don't like musicals

Anyways idk what to watch

[silver robin]

yea but with imouto sae iiraba ii and eromanga sensei at least they aren't related

[slender skiff]

Right I briefly forgot Gimai existed

[cedar furnace]

I forget that a lot of things exist

[somber relic]

oh, this also applied to KR and CN WN market as well

I wish webnovel never exist even

sure there were very fews of gold that can appear there, like Shangri La Frontier

but I'd rather sacrifice one good title if that's mean million trash can disappear

[silver robin]

isn't shangri la frontier manga

[somber relic]

KR webnovel scene single handedly murder original manhwa existence

[silver robin]

[somber relic]

based on WN

lol

[silver robin]

thats a first

haven't heard of wn straight to manga before

[somber relic]

I think the WN was for the prototype plot only so it never continued

lemme search the link again

[somber relic]

https://www.novelupdates.com/series/shangrila-frontier-shitty-games-hunter-challenges-godly-game/

yep

oh nvm, still ongoing

lol

I even wrong about that

well anyway

[somber relic]

also for this

there are a lot of them lmao

[silver robin]

[cedar furnace]

What I've watched this year

[silver robin]

i thought it was usually wn -> ln -> manga

[cedar furnace]

Is long

So beware this might be a wall

[silver robin]

you can just post your mal

or anilist i don't discriminate

[cedar furnace]

I dont have one

[somber relic]

no, there are no rules for that, as long some manga artist guy capable to draw shit and some pubs want the WN to get manga adaptation, it can be done

[silver robin]

fair enough

[cedar furnace]

Also not everything I've watched this year is anime

[silver robin]

i guess its rare that you get into a major magazine right off the bat then

[cedar furnace]

Hence why I keep a list

Like this
My watchlist (2023)
Tales of the Jedi ☑️
Bad Batch S2☑️
Angel Beats☑️
Hetalia's movie☑️
World Witches (rewatch) ☑️
Clone high ☑️

Pretty cool

Sorry I should have probably taken a screenshot

[somber relic]

major magazine? there are lot of shitty magaine nowadays that specialized on taking shitty title, Alpha Polis is one of the most known pubs

[silver robin]

no i mean like big 3 shonen mangazines

i think shangri la frontier is weekly shonen magazine

then theres also weekly shonen jump and weekly shonen sunday

which are the big 3 shonen magazines

[somber relic]

oh yeah mb, SLF was a rare case indeed, I guess I missed what you were trying to say

[silver robin]

ye

[somber relic]

the author & artist probably hit the jackpot

[silver robin]

normally wn/ln adapdations are in random monthly magazines

then you have shonen magazine with both monogatari series and slf

[somber relic]

anyawy, another reason why Webnovel should never exist

[cedar furnace]

When you mean Adaptations do you mean into anime?

[silver robin]

adaptations into manga

[cedar furnace]

Oh

[somber relic]

the fact that original manhwa in the market is pretty much dying make me so sad

[silver robin]

well digital is the way to go cause free consuming

[cedar furnace]

So is the process light novel -> mango -> anime?

Or different

[silver robin]

especially for novels

[somber relic]

no

[silver robin]

can vary

[cedar furnace]

Ah

[somber relic]

anime based on LN will follow the LN

not the manga

[silver robin]

some works don't have manga or don't have ln or have neither

or anime just does it own thing

[cedar furnace]

Cuz I remember hearing that GuP is original

[somber relic]

yes

GuP is just another original anime

[silver robin]

nobody is gonna spend money to buy an unproven work, especially moreso if the author is a newcomer

[cedar furnace]

I hope that the angel mango thats getting an anime gets a dub

[silver robin]

so free "samples" are necessary, which is where webnovel stuff comes in

[somber relic]

original anime also can have manga adaptation, like Aldnoah Zero and Darling in The Franxx

[silver robin]

yes

[cedar furnace]

Is that common?

[slender skiff]

Usually it's this for those that are originally light novels
Though there are some that start as manga and become anime afterwards

[somber relic]

also the rule of thumb here

most manga adaptatio based on anime are trash

[silver robin]

original anime are not uncommon

wouldn't say they are common though

[slender skiff]

The rarer cases in current times are anime originals

[somber relic]

original anime exist before our parents born

usually there is balance between original anime and anime adaptation each season

[slender skiff]

Turns out it's much easier to create an anime off something that already exists as opposed to creating a whole new series

[cedar furnace]

But doesn't that pose the issue of a critical plot point being left behind?

Or risk I should say

[silver robin]

no

with anime originals

they create the story from scratch

so its very flexible

[slender skiff]

There are pros and cons to both

For example

[cedar furnace]

Oh sorry I replied to the wrong message

[slender skiff]

Certain stories may not be adapted well due to the production crew decisions

So they may gloss over what are otherwise important parts

[cedar furnace]

or the material is just bad

[slender skiff]

And lose some of the substance

And that's just from a narrative stand point

[cedar furnace]

So the answer is yesnt

[silver robin]

the answer to a lot of things is yesnt

[slender skiff]

On the other hand, stories created just for an anime usually are written with stuff like visuals and SFX in mind

[silver robin]

they are also written with less internal monologues (hopefully)

[slender skiff]

A simple example would be a character's emotions

So maybe a character is feeling say nervous for a test

[cedar furnace]

True

[somber relic]

nah

zoomer nowadays just love their leveling/cultivation/ranker/villainess comics too much

[slender skiff]

A well written novel would write about how he's shivering or keeps on looking at the clock for example

[somber relic]

market flooded with brainless consumer, and the market also keep spoonfeed them with brainless trash

[slender skiff]

In a manga/anime which has visuals, you can just... Show that

[somber relic]

ask any person that you know like to read manhwa, how many original manhwa they already read

[slender skiff]

Instead of the person self narrating that he's shivering

[cedar furnace]

True

[slender skiff]

This is just a broad example of course

[somber relic]

this also applied to manga market nowadays

I'm sick with looking at MangaMogura twitter informing some heinous trash manga based on WN sold more than million copies

and after that they informed original manga which have potential got axed

[slender skiff]

The disadvantage of an anime original, would be that... You hinge even more on the script writers than you would on an adaptation

Entertainment is a cutthroat industry after all

Only the popular survive

[somber relic]

Psycho Pass and Aldnoah Zero moment

Urobuchi just decided to yeet himself out from the production team

[cedar furnace]

Also what I meant by bad source material are "those" shows

[somber relic]

(or maybe there was another reason for that, but we most likely will never know the true motive)

[slender skiff]

Urobutcher doesn't like it when his things are butchered clearly

Though wasn't psycho-pass at least received somewhat well

[silver robin]

psycho pass is popular

[somber relic]

Urobuchi left from Aldnoah Zero after third episode though

[silver robin]

3rd ep of s1 or s2?

[somber relic]

who know why

[slender skiff]

S1

[somber relic]

first season lol

[slender skiff]

I also remember that

[silver robin]

he probably wrote s1 almost entirely

before leaving

cause working ahead

so thats probably why s2 shat the bed

[somber relic]

yeah, most likely if you saw the plot of aldnoah 1

[silver robin]

i haven't seen ald zero so no comment

but i heard s2 sucked a lot

[slender skiff]

I mean

The best thing of aldnoah is still the ending

[somber relic]

Aldnoah zero literally went from the best mecha anime I ever watched in season 1 to the worst mecha anime I ever watch in season 2

it was amazingn experience

[slender skiff]

Sawano putting out the bangers as always

[silver robin]

[silver robin]

thought you meant the narrative ending and i was like ???

[somber relic]

yeah, Sawano and Troyca's animation quality was the only saving grace

[somber relic]

what

lol no

[slender skiff]

Sam I thought you were a sawano fan

[silver robin]

i am

but we were talking about story

i agree aliez is good

however you spell it idc

[somber relic]

this looks sus

[slender skiff]

aLIEz

[silver robin]

no like seriously

i haven't seen it

[somber relic]

anyway

imagine a character that literally only showed for 2 minutes screentime total || cucked both of the MC ||

[slender skiff]

You should know by now that I don't watch mecha

[silver robin]

not clicking that

[silver robin]

watch gundam witch go go go

[somber relic]

peak anime fr

[silver robin]

[slender skiff]

And I thought franxx was bad

[somber relic]

Franxx was bad since the start

Aldnoah Zero started from being very good and turned into super dogshit

[silver robin]

i thought franxx had promise

[somber relic]

but I still gave Aldnoah Zero 1 good score though

I just hate Aldnoah 2

[silver robin]

then second half was

well

not good

[silver robin]

that seems to be the consensous opinion from what i saw online

[somber relic]

you want?

this isn't even including live concert videos

(though I rarely watch them so I never bother to collecting them)

[silver robin]

[slender skiff]

Sam pls

[somber relic]

or

maybe I will grab this

25gb blu-ray though, my storage is dying

[somber relic]

send your email in DM

[silver robin]

im not gonna download files over the internet anyways

for all i know it could be a .zip filled with yaoi r18

[somber relic]

hey how dare you slandered me like that, I even rip & upload some album by myself

also I actually missed this one, thanks for mentioning Sawano in here I guess https://vgmdb.net/album/60876

[silver robin]

ender i know anime piracy is banned here, but whats the stance for music piracy

[somber relic]

manga piracy doesn't get banned here?

also it's not piracy, we just borrowing stuff from each other

[slender skiff]

I think it should be fairly obvious that any form of piracy is not allowed to be discussed here

Also technically that's a music player so it could just be playing music from somewhere else

That would be like banning tachiyomi or any manga reader app here

[somber relic]

yeah, that's just MusicBee

it's not even online platform

lul

dude wtf is this

[slender skiff]

I mean

[somber relic]

one of oldest Sawano's album I can't

[slender skiff]

Even this is from a music player app

[somber relic]

@silver robinalso do you know Sawano composed soundtrack for a non-action live action Japanese

oh wait, I guess it wasn't a live action

just original real TV series

[silver robin]

yes

didnt he do music for that one puppet show too

[somber relic]

well, that one is action though

[slender skiff]

Puppets

[somber relic]

I mean the genre is action

[slender skiff]

[somber relic]

kek

[silver robin]

[slender skiff]

I mean aren't all Kamen Rider and Sentai technically puppets

[somber relic]

yes, Chinese puppet drama

literally a puppet show

[slender skiff]

Horey shit

[silver robin]

high budget puppet show

[somber relic]

not something like Kamen Raider lol

[slender skiff]

Totally not FF

[somber relic]

https://www.crunchyroll.com/series/GY75KE906/thunderbolt-fantasy

crunchyroll actually have it lmao

[slender skiff]

Urobutcher strikes again

As long as it's not some Saya no Uta-eseque shit

It's probably decent

[somber relic]

Urobuchi wrote a wuxia story is like Urobuchi when he wrote story for Kamen Raider (Kamen Raider Gaim)

both were goofy as fuck lmao

[slender skiff]

At least mecha worked out initially

[somber relic]

look at this shit

[slender skiff]

So we shd get him to write Sentai next?

[somber relic]

[slender skiff]

Maybe he'll produce a competitor to Ranger Reject

[somber relic]

Kamen Raider is counted as sentai pl0x

[slender skiff]

I mean typical Sentai

Or fine

Power Rangers

[somber relic]

oh yeah

anyway both are Tokusatsu genre

[slender skiff]

Though that feels like a different series entirely

[somber relic]

|| anyway you want it or not ||

[somber relic]

tbf, that kind of shit was basically for his VN's work only

[slender skiff]

And it is pretty old at this point

Surely he's toned down a bit!

looks at Madoka and F/Zero
...I mean I guess he did?

[somber relic]

most urobuchi's anime more focused on action so yeah I guess

https://tenor.com/view/madoka-magica-homura-vs-mami-akemi-homura-tomoe-mami-gif-21160370

Madoka didn't have many action scene, when there is one, it was pure banger though

also in three Urobuchi's anime (Madoka, F/Z and Psycho Pass), all of the MC use gun as their main weapons

too bad Homura didn't smoke like Kiritsugu and Kogami

https://tenor.com/view/kiritsugu-emiya-cigarette-smoke-walk-away-walk-out-gif-25245153

oh yeah three of them are black-haired as well

[silver robin]

I'm good

[red magnet]

Did someone say kogami

[quaint patrol]

hahari mama

[slender skiff]

Very self aware aren't we

Also

Apparently the translators included an interview between the authors for 100kano and kaguya/Oshi no Ko/renai daikou

Interestingly

Said interview also mentions that Akasaka sensei wanted to initially end Kaguya with the cultural festival arc

Now that's

Interesting

[slender skiff]

Interview in question

[quaint patrol]

that wouldve been so much missing actually

kaguya ending is always memed by the helicopter but

iino and ice kaguya were nice

[silver robin]

i think ending where the movie ended would have worked well

if akasaka lost interest

believe he said in other interviews or comments that kaguya basically ended there, and the rest was just to tie up loose ends with other characters

[slender skiff]

Yep

[somber relic]

expected tbh

Kaguya after cultural arc became too annoying to read

it feels like it was milked

[somber relic]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQystzibMlc

[silver robin]

@somber relic whats your top 5 favorite sawano songs

[somber relic]

hmmmm

1. Ashes <MODV> ver.
2. attack on titan ft. Mika Kobayashi
3. Re: I AM English ver. (Aimer)
4. ZERO ECLIPSE (Laco)
5. Bios (re-arrangement album ver. I forgot the album name) ft. Mika Kobayashi

man I missed Mika Kobayashi so much

NzK still never feels the same without Mika Kobayashi and Cyua

[silver robin]

zero eclipse pog

thats one of my favorites too

[somber relic]

oh wait, I like This is a Fight to Change the World more than Bios

lul

I almost forgot about that one

[stable herald]

Holy shit discord mobile

[silver robin]

mine is probably

1. Tranquility (Anly)
2. Avid (Mizuki), i like the og one, but the orchestral arrangement he posted before the official version came out is my favorite arrangement, especially the start
3. Into the Sky (Tielle)
4. BRAVE THE OCEAN (Eliana)
5. ZERO ECLIPSE (Laco)

as an honorable mention, ill also put Time (Reona) and Hands Up to the Sky (Laco)

[somber relic]

yeah, I like Avid MODV version as well, it was included in Sawano [iv] album btw

[silver robin]

pog

[somber relic]

also for Tranquility, it was decent imo, but for me it was completely overshadowed by Trollz (in the single album)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BdUgKHRyvxE

this shit was too good

[silver robin]

i like tranquility better

yes im basic fite me

[somber relic]

you also know Sawano and Gemie had song for League of Legend right

[silver robin]

yes

[somber relic]

nice

[silver robin]

that one is alright

same with the nikke one

wouldn't put either as above the ones i listed above

[somber relic]

it was hilarous how that Nikke theme song only have average duration of anime OP/ED song in any official music streaming service lmao

so yeah, it's only one minutes and 30 seconds

[silver robin]

technically no

one sec

[somber relic]

oh wait

one minute 19 seconds

[silver robin]

nikke official youtube

posted full version

its like 2 min something kek

[somber relic]

that's why I said this

Amazon Music, TIDAL and Qobuz have this version instead

[silver robin]

yea

[somber relic]

so they basically never sell the full version of the song

[silver robin]

i guess he will release it in next album

[silver robin]

basically 3 min

[somber relic]

btw do you listen to Sawano's stuff before Guilty Crown tho

album soundtack for anime Sengoku Basara, or live action of Team Medical Dragon

[silver robin]

technically yes cause aimer gundam unicorn songs pepekek

actually wait

[somber relic]

so only gundam UC alright

[silver robin]

wasn't gundam unicorn the first one after guilty crown

i don't remember

haven't seen it xd

[somber relic]

release first before guilty crown but ended after guilty crown finished airing

[silver robin]

ye

[silver robin]

i watched blue exorcist but none of the music vibed with me pepekek

[somber relic]

@silver robinhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DqSk55uPZUI

from a drama TV series about bakery btw

[silver robin]

wow

[somber relic]

oh wait not about bakery https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3716466/

salt pond something something

then move to a city

anyway it's life drama series yeah

@silver robinoh I didn't realized they added lyric in the album sleeve

that's 86's ost album sleeve scan

[silver robin]

slumdog paradise is a banger

its not sawano im aware

[somber relic]

I don't like the original version, but I like the re-arrangement version

@silver robinfeels nostalgic sadge

in the old roster of NzK, pretty much only Benjamin Anderson and mpi who stay until now

the rest of them is already gone

[silver robin]

sadge

[somber relic]

btw, NIKKE's song single released in 2022

Sawano's latest major album (V) released in January 2023

so I think it will not available in his next album then (most likely didn't allowed since NIKKE hold the copyright of the song and they don't allow Sawano to sell the song by himself)

same with Star Guardian ost

RIOT owned the copyright

(or act as the label, anyway the point is still same, they are the one who have the copyright)

[silver robin]

[slender skiff]

As Nano said in the manga

Oyakodon

[stable herald]

Isekai Shoukan wa Nidome desu

Is shit

lmao

nuff said

Oh apparently

THe anime is the shit adaptation of its source

the novel and even the manga is even more brutal

The example of the manga

I guess they rushed the anime to fit everything into only 1 season and makes it as family friendly

overall, bad series.

Imma watch Watashi no Shiawase na Kekkon now

WAIT NETFLIX ADAPTED IT

[slender skiff]

🐌

[whole berry]

You'll be surprised by the mother of the MC and the girl

Holy shit the anime didn't adapt setsu's handicap

He can't fuckin kill anything

[stable herald]

Thats the only good part lmao
