also i could understand that entire conversation without needing english subtitles
very poggers i still got it in me

I'm still laughing at the fact that Lydia and Lynn's mom is Kawasumi
EXUCALIBAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Apparently
The original model for arceuid got interviewed recently
It's kinda surreal tbh
I do mean it was an actual model btw
na it was definitely some fluctlight contraption because sao is real
no
not at all
the protagonist is too fat and the fmc is too loli so i never picked it up

...too loli?
maybe im confusing her in game avatar or something
idk
either way it never interested me
sao better 
yes

In any case the reason I brought it up

Is because it's revealed like 20 something volumes in
That she is a ||fluctlight in a human body||

alice isn't a human though
isn't alice irl an actual robot thingy
thats just hyper realistic
Alice is a fluctlight in a robot body yes

The FMC in Accel World is a ||fluctlight in a human body||
yes
Which is wild
And my reaction was also pretty much

I mean the speculation before that was that she's Kirito's and Asuna's child
She literally has a starburst stream herself

Wow these ladies are soo hot
Goddamn it man... Some good series always ended axed or indefinite hiatus due to creator either: Passed away of any circumstances, caught due to tax evasion or touching minors...

ahh, reading non-MTL brings me joy
does jnovel miss in their translations?
(at least not for the two series i follow) 
Quite the opposite
They're the gold standard for localisation
Yenpress is bad and slow in updates
Seven seas is in the middle
do they ever* miss is what i meant
anime continuation when 
learning isekai titles is actually harder than learning their songs 
first one actually pretty good ngl i read the web novel for it

SOME OF THESE are pretty good
"I Am an Uncreative Mangaka so I Synopsize My Stories to Put into an Elongated Title to Maximize the Word Count on a Website, now I Am Famous Throughout Japan and Went on Hiatus to Draw Hentai and Now I Wonder the Dungeon"
can't blame them fully tho
they release their webnovel on a platform without picture could be provided
had to attract readers just by the title
https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/feature/2025-08-29/anime-dubs-as-good-as-cowboy-bebop/.224986 @weak glacier as the resident dub watcher what are your thoughts

Mika is great
i did not mean to ping for that
Mika's turning everyone bi
i read some of it in the WN but there is more
I'm sorry vat

What you mean by everyone
well, all the men
To be fair
Isn't he of that species that can like choose what gender they'll end up becoming or sth
I forgot tbh
but yea, it's like 1 month man, 1 month nothing, 1 month female
i believe
idk if nothing is a month or a short period
Putting Robotech in there is an unfair comparison
it's nothing like macross
and somehow the writer picked a lot of shows i've haven't seen
the fact Viz's Sailor Moon dub or YGO dub isn't on here shows how ignorant they are

if you are bringing cowboy bepop into the fold, then you should bring up trigun
vaush's EN VA was amazing
Fun fact about the English death note cast. It shares A LOT of VAs with Ninjago. I found that out awhile back and was shocked at just how many characters share VAs
Also I'd say some other good dubs are:
-Any Yugioh series
-Hetalia
-Haganai
-Azur Lane
-Ace Attorney
-Beyblade X
-Kancolle (surprisingly)
I only ever watched like 3 anime in dub but mob psycho dub is great 
Some dude posted shorts of the Kancolle dub and I can't believe I forgot how good some lines were
Then again Kancolle is a shit anime and its been like 3 years since I've fully watched it

im basic i think most funimation dubs are atleast decent

only a pg zaku ii will. this girl high standards 💅
Backlog too big. How ‘bout PGU Gramps?
woah there, can't be whipping that out
It’s still in the box so it’s sfw, right?
i suppose
I’m still hoping the green Zakus get reprinted soon. HG or MG.
Short king
i need the pg
it's the only pg i'll buy
Unless they make a PG Barbs, I'm probably sticking with Gramps for now. Maybe Char's Zaku if I find a sale
Mg barby got announce
Now to wait for Lupus Rex to complete the MG Barbatos collection
Just get the add on parts
I preordered a 3rd party Rex a while back. Don’t think there’s parts for the Lupus Rex aside from the larger sword and eye streak

Its a marketing strategy to get more Japanese viewers
unironically yes
the largest growth for the mlb is from japan
Cuz Japanese people love baseball
and mlb has a lot of japanese players
all the good japanese players want to play for the mlb because they get more money
Kinda like how the NHL has a lot of Canadian and Russian players despite the league being American owned

Arata, the family heir, is constantly teased by his sisters for his inability to find love.

I want to know if mangakas abuse drugs to get through these workloads
"yes"
i think reiji said in interview that he gets 2 days off in a week because its 2 days research then 1 day chapter then 1-2 days editing / revising
They either on Charlie Sheen or Stephen King
and its 1 weekly and 1 monthly manga so workload is not as bad

bro took off his hat and i thought the shadow would disappear
the real angel in this story is amane

on a side note
i realised why iruma has so many seasons
THERE'S 45 FUCKING VOLUMES
wow, it's one thing to know that iruma has over 400 chapters
and another that it has 45 volume releases
speaking of long running series
re zero volume 42 is coming out later this year
light novel volume
jeepers
I was about to be surprised about 42 LNs, but bookworm has over 40 as well
how much stuff did i miss
a lot probably
anime is at like volume 18ish currently

re:zero was overhyped ngl
is there a correlation between running out budget and an anime becoming existential?
or thats just a gainax thing
@ivory mauve watching gq some u's x rn
GQuuuuuux
GQuuuuuy

i'm just being facetious
SO TRUE
also latest dan da dan episode has this random guy humming the dragon ball z opening
oh
isn't this like the second lesbian gundam show?
Its not official official like witch from Mercury iirc
But all the fan art is gay
Which is all you need to know
they removed that allegdly iirc
they didn't remove it they just denied it happenbed
unlke gwitch gqux doesnt have even slight romantic vibe between two girls
although I'm glad sunrise does simuldubs, one of the few companies that do that
but it's worth it for them because they sell gundam kits
and netflix
a lot of Crunchyroll shows are simuldub
and gqux is crunchyroll
also the most popular ones are dubbed in multiple languages simul not just eng
netflix does it too
im pretty sure the simuldub list is done by cr / Netflix not bandai

cause its cr or Netflix that contract the studio for the dubs
The dub is a separate license
yes but its given to the same company
They might have contracted an independent studio, but I know CR for sure has an in house dubbing studio
Emi Lo works for CR
yes but its cr thats giving them the money regardless of in house vs contractor
or netflix if its a netflix show
well

it's complicated
yeppega
If a show is coproduced, they might just be given the license in exchange for help funding show. Or, the production company funds all of the anime and license it out
i doubt the jp company nor the production commitee pays for non jp dubs
they sell the rights to cr to do whatever the fuck they want
Depends on the property. YGO and Pokemon has a vested interest for paying for dubs
CR pulling Sony connections
funimation was the big simuldub player and now its cr coincidence i think not
If I remembered correctly, 20 odd years ago studios would literally bundle their nonperforming anime and sell the licenses to foreign countries lol
yes but they also self fund literally everything cause they are big so special case
I mean, there's a TCG first, anime second. Gundam is the same way: Gunpla first, anime second
The show is to sell toys
ash eng va literally couldnt do any other va roles until they killed off ash 
I'd argue that American cartoons and older Japanese IPs figured out that selling toys is more profitable than just making anime lol
i mean thats always been the case
Thats why everyone and their mom is selling merch
sports teams do it
I think it was George Lucas who invented that concept for movies lol
everything does it honestly
Disney did it first but then they bought his stuff so

actually no
Should have seen the star wars on toy shelves during the release of the first movie
there was definitely merch based on multimedia ips before star wars i refuse to believe star wars was first
I didnt claim star wars was the first. I meant was first for movies. cartoons were doing this before star wars
mayhaps
but yeah, it felt like anime was built to sell ad spots rather than sell merch
Scooby Doo in a sense was like that, but Hanna-Barbara cartoons were incredibly cheap to produced unlike anime
anime is expensive as fuck for a reason
Same problem Disney has
Budgets are so blown out because they want to maintain high degree of quality for projects that don't even really matter
theres probably some bloat as well
Also the fact some studios dont want to utilize CG
Although, I have a strong feeling thats changing
It is, but mostly background and mecha elements
yes
I mean, Pixar is the gold standard. Studio Ghibli tried and failed to male a CG film
cg majority will never work
male
well
actually yes and no
Studio orange does it good somehow
there is some anime fully CG like D4DJ
but even then its somewhat unnatural
japan used to lack 3d animation industry knowledge
lupin iii is good no?
idk havent seen
felt like they couldnt animated them correctly. the models look great, just couldnt make them feel right
but the original original lupins were not cg iirc
Like from the 70s or whatever it was
although, sony animations has been killing it
The theater cheered when Zeni showed up
big loopzoop energy
This is more modern type stuff
i think i figured it out its due to the time constraints
most anime eps are done about a month ahead of when it airs
disney and sony take many months just to get the final render of a movie, its too slow for jp to copy 
i think it is just lack of experience, industry veterans, and poor planning. There is tons of 3D cartoons of various complexity that was airing on American networks
probably
also probably software wasnt translated back then as much
Sauce
Cultural inertia too. When you done something for so long, you approach the problem the way you always have
Reincarnated Carrier's Strategy for Different World
Something like that
Time to wait for the eventual anime in 2027
lol
anything can work if adopted and used properly
we will definitely be seeing more and more full cg anime moving forward as japan studios gets more experience with using it
and how to blend it in natural ways with 2d animation where appropriate
Mecha genre basically CG now
although, I want to see a modern hand drawn one sometime
Mecha genre fight scenes are so comically fast I have hard time tracking
for example I really like how gravity well (arknights trailers animation studio) uses 2d for special effects or things that would be hard to animated in 3d like blood, while keeping the rest in 3d

more like make it 24fps
not all animation is at 24, it can dip as low as 1 frame per hope

Guess a Volume dropped for that to happen

hg or rg zeong?
Mg
oh, haven't they announced a reprint?
They probably did, but I was too focused on the green Zakus.
This is why my backlog is so huge…
i want the zaku ii mg so much
I’m hoping the ground version is released in the reprint wave too. And the Tri-Stars high mobility one.
As I currently have over 10 MGs and a couple of custom projects to work on
My only paint work took almost 3 months since I don’t have an indoor spray booth. And I want to do more camos on other GMs. (I swear I’m not a masochist)

so gq some u's x is just a meta analysis of the gundam franchise and now bandai is just creating a multiverse for shits n giggles

pretty soon gundam gonna have Crisis on Infinite Earths
I can't believe it took me two years to notice this
hogwarts? /s
PHANTOM LIGHT
Phantom light might be a unstable copy of the Wing's of light but it's all about the.
Already a thing. Just check out the SD and build fighters/divers
Also congratulations for finishing GQuuuuuux.
I have mix feelings about it. It is a great show, but Gundam has been pivoting away from the real robot to just... seasonal bait
Gundam was always goofy, but like this show felt like watching modern seasonal rotation than an actual gundam show
I still standby my statement that War in the Pocket is peak Gundam
GQuuuuuux had alot of wierd issues. There might have been some behind the scenes stuff.
Most Gundam ova work because they are self contained stories but they can get away with 3 to 10 episodes. But GQuuuuuux was from the first episode trying to set up something big that wouldn't fit a standard 12 episode anime.
It seem like they wanted to quickly wrap it up, and I think they might do a s2?
Actually, no

Separate UC
It's complicated...
thats why i stick to the non cannon gundams like g-witch which is the only gundam i have watched to date

It's a what if the space Nazi's won
bro you can't hit that sleep emoji when you trying end a discussion 💀
I feel like gundam is a multiverse

you don't have to feel it, it is a multiverse
the minute you have alternate timelines its a multiverse
not really
Fate as far as I know is not a multiverse
Multiverse implies that they somehow all coexist at once lol
Otherwise it's just a different take

fair enough
that makes sense
however fate does coexist all at once if you look at spinoffs
or fgo
At least animewise, I always viewed fate as just events playing out differently based what the writing felt that day lol
Well yes...
with original fate visual novel adaptation anime yes its just branches based on decisions the mc makes at certain times
so thats fate/stay night and unlimited blade works and heaven's feel
The spiderverse is an excuse to keep aunt may alive, change my mind 
but then you get into stuff like fate/apoc or el miloi case files or however you spell it and then it gets murky

Oh boy its fate time
Well, this doesnt mean it is a multiverse. But with Gq some u's x, it is now a multiverse lol
I stopped at fate stay night, the adhd version of fate
I made the mistake of watching french animated movie
It already was because Turn A is a thing
that shit was more zesty and bold than ecchi anime
was turn a gundam a meme?
SPOILER alert. That XR 78-2 in GQuuuuuux wasn't an actual Rx78 but the TURN A affected by LaLa's newtype bs
No. It was the
that is my least favorite gundam design ngl
But it is quirky enough to be added to my collection
it might grow on me
heavy arms was i was thinking

Syd Mead. May he rest in peace
A bunch of stuff too
Ngl I'm not the biggest fan of wing even tho i fit in the demographic. I'm more of a 00 guy and Crossbone. Yo ho
00 is crazy
only super popular mainline series i watched was seed
I think of this time to time
I still haven’t finished SEED, nor have I worn my Zaft uniform cosplay to any cons… Fake fan, I know
it's ok if you skip freedom
Still really excited for the second Hathaway film though.
Freedom is that epilogue movie, right?
nah, it just more like... a fanfiction that undermines s1
(seed freedom)
wait
i'm slow
i'm talking about seed destiny
💀
Hathaway is kinda confusing ar first
Yeah, it’s following the novels instead of the CCA film.
I think… Don’t quote me on that though
Ah. So it's following Beltorchika's Children
how the gundam writing teams feel like
Basically, Char’s Counterattack was successful enough to warrant multiple novel versions to be written of it back in the 80s and the one that the Hathaway books follow happens to be one with some discrepancies with the original CCA film. That’s what I understand at least.
Kind of similar to the original Star Wars Expanded Universe. Might be why I feel like this is normal
The EU is kinda patchwork of multiple works loosely related to each other by different authors. It's rare for Japanese franchises to have this lol
I've been outted as a fake fan again
nah, theres no such thing as a fake fan. everyone has different depthness of shit they step in
I am far more casual anime fan. i couldn't name half of my favorite characters
It's mostly a joke. Especially since I hyperfixate on certain things. It used to be Star Wars, and now it's Gundam. But I am starting to go more out of my depth with other things like with To be Hero X and Mashle to name a few.
I used to be in Star Wars a lot. I still love the franchise, one day I'll revisit it
I recommended getting into Alien/Predator universe or Transformers. NGL transformers franchise looks goofy as hell
I dabbled a bit with Transformers, mostly the mainstream stuff. Prime was the only series I loved enough to call myself a fan of. I haven't tried watching Armada yet though.
i love prime's starscream
favorite design
F-16 so sleek and sexy. Can't even imagine the Harrier concept version in his place
Gaia gear is a gundam sequel that Bandai and sunrise want to bury. Because it is the good ending of the Universal Century
Just searched up Gaia Gear. The choice in chapter titles for volume 2 is... interesting.
Wait, Beltorchika's Children is the original draft of CCA?!
It's almost 3 AM and i'm basically playing the wiki game with Gundam titles...

So rental gf is burning the kitchen again
Apparently now they're pushing the narrative that the reason the girl rejected him is because she actually distrusts guys
Cos of her dad who went to get the milk

is that the actual reason lmao?
oh, I was really confused how she could've debuted in 2015 if she voiced kasumi in muv luv, but she only voiced her in anime lol (muv luv came out in 2003)
Yes very true. Got to love em
Fate is actually a multiverse in a sense if you go by the Type-Moon universe standards actually.
I mean you have the Magical Girl Illya series that's involved in all of this, on a "What if the 4th Grail War never started?"
FGO basically, on "What if there was an Antarctic Base known for Magic Usage had to save the world multiple times over."
I could keep going but I'll just stop here for now on that
Ah yes, the best high elf in all of anime
sakiko probably her most well known role especially in China, they really like ave mujica over there
It is crazy to think that an anime can be high fantasy and not be an isekai?????? in the year of our lord 2025????
reborn as the bastard youngest master of (insert prestigious family here) type shit
Yes, because the old High Fantasy series were made mostly due to DnD sessions that they decided to make into an anime
what's this refer to even

high fantasy?


miky baka
Remember back in the 90s or so where fantasy anime was all about the people that lived in said fantasy world, and Isekai wasn't a thing?
Pepperidge Farms remembers
There is ironically one fantasy isekai I could think of
bruz
Why does that seem like a hentai right there?


I don't think frierien is considered high fantasy
That's...
again
define high fantasy
LOTR type shit

it's 12 full months man
Litmus for a high fantasy:
-is it good vs evil?
-is the world at stake?
-is it not representative of our world?
Other stuff like high fantasy leans heavy into character archetypes
That's my interpretation anyway
In my mind, D&D follows a lot high fantasy, but some consider it low fantasy... which I find odd
Made in Abyss is not high fantasy smh
this is why you don't trust ai fully
what the fuck
also btw this discord UI is dogwatter
Slayers? I'm not sure

How the fuck I forgot about Berserk
Like I know it's more grimdark
i'm gonna be real mike
i don't bother to read half the shit you post lol
I mustve missed it
But yeah
Berserk would be more dark fantasy than high, but it's genre fluid
whatever the fuck that means
genre fluid
no pun intended
Berserk is more dark fantasy yes

The ed of this anime is soo damn good

yes banger song
pretty much any fantasy set in a fictional world is high fantasy 
low fantasy is fantasy set in real world
all isekais are high fantasy (except reverse isekai)
that's flatly wrong. a lot of isekais have to many game mechanics and basically have medieval themed modern substitutes, almost to a comical degree lol
that makes them more high fantasy because puts their rules of the world even further away from real world
....
no, it doesn't because the real world still exists
Articles relating to portal fantasy, a subgenre of fantasy where a fantasy world is entered through a portal behind which the fantastic elements remain contained. A portal-quest fantasy typically tends to be a quest-type narrative, whose main challenge is navigating the fantastical world. Notable examples include L. Frank Baum's The Wonderful Wi...


but that's one working definition
because nobody in their right mind would call harry potter high fantasy
another point, is the character understands the other world from the lens of the real world
istg if you say eminence in shadow is high fantasy, i'm going to do nothing
and also if you really want to pedantic, isekais like Overlord are just games built by humans in the real world 
yeah, it is one of the definitions, no worse than any other, because genres are arbitrary and even with clear cut things a lot of arguments can be made
but even then under most definitions isekais would fall under high fantasy on basis of 'epic (in a literal sense of this word) story about characters going on adventure and facing tribulations to achieve some grandious goal (like defeating the demon king or a god or whatever chuuni shit)
primary world is mostly irrelevant in the process other than to provide a lens through which protagonist sees the secondary world and even then quite often they forget about it halfway through story
I would agree if it wasn't for the fact that Isekais draw so much from video game mechanics that it becomes an entirety different genre. The primary world still influences the characters thinking, whereas a proper high fantasy, the main character understands the world as the world they live in. To me, it does play a lot of relevance because isekais like Saving 80,000 Gold in Another World for My Retirement hinges on it
sure, genres evolve and change and subgenres exist
obviously it's not 'pure' high fantasy, but it is a subgenre of it
I would just call for what it is: isekai

because a proper high fantasy manga/anime would be like berserk
or vinland saga
i don't even consider alice in wonderland high fantasy. take that for what you will
I mean in general I don't even like genres as a concept
it's restrictive, creative works don't need to be shoved into boxes
but unfortunely they do exist 
I don't find genres restrictive, as it is useful tool to group similar themes and works. IMO, the problem is when writers try to fit their story around a genre
Ironically, the very crux of the issue of isekai
it can be useful in categorization, but people use it just for generalization like to just dismiss entire genre cos they don't like one work in it or just assume things about it (like a lot of people with isekais tbh)
I mean part of the reasons Isekai have a big draw is because it's pretty easy to hook people with just the title
Anyways as with what Res said I do think genres can be pretty restrictive
And ultimately personal definition matters more lol
wife and useless should be switched
rereading iruma kun
