[agile turtle]

[robust cave]

I'm saying don't recc him anything

Gatekeep

[worldly tusk]

[daring jacinth]

[worldly tusk]

i thought u called violet shit

[agile turtle]

[worldly tusk]

[robust cave]

I would never, I love violet

I used to watch it every birthday

[agile turtle]

Hermit glazes Violet I can attest to this

[coral sedge]

[robust cave]

You should know this

[coral sedge]

i never see you speak about it

was it not wholesome enough for you hermit

[worldly tusk]

✌️ W hermit

[wise spade]

wut is uppie

[worldly tusk]

i watch it monthly

[robust cave]

I told you multiple times that I didn't like it that much

[coral sedge]

i respect that

[robust cave]

It got thrown out of my top 3 recently though

[daring jacinth]

you need to stop and watch something else

[agile turtle]

your profile is so schizobased

[coral sedge]

by fate?

[wise spade]

fr

[agile turtle]

peak

[coral sedge]

by monogatari?

[robust cave]

I didn't watch the fate anime

[worldly tusk]

✌️ i respect the fact that u have it in ur fav shows

[wise spade]

[agile turtle]

Loki is peak

[robust cave]

My top 3 rn is
Monogatari series
Bocchi the Rock
Uma musume

[wise spade]

real

[worldly tusk]

i do tho

[coral sedge]

pinteresting

[worldly tusk]

hmmmm i gotta watch mono series and uma

[agile turtle]

you caught up on OP manga?

[worldly tusk]

i only watched pretty derby

[coral sedge]

you are too pure for mono

[agile turtle]

Mono is peak

[worldly tusk]

i just finished dxd and prison school 3 days ago

was going to watch redo too but most ppl say its ahh

[coral sedge]

kindergarten stuff compared to mono ngl

[daring jacinth]

and youre the opposite

[worldly tusk]

both these are peak btw

[worldly tusk]

hmmm ill watch anyway

[daring jacinth]

it is

[worldly tusk]

✌️ raaaaah

[agile turtle]

watch LN Order

If you do

[coral sedge]

i got recommended mono without being warned about the stuff in show, im literally a victim

[agile turtle]

Actually that's what @coral sedge recommended to a bunch of us when we watched ig

[robust cave]

Nadeko mentality

[coral sedge]

all the newgens nowadays know about the degen shit in mono

[worldly tusk]

hmmm ill see about that

[coral sedge]

dev wants to see others fail like she did 😔

[daring jacinth]

[worldly tusk]

i still think it cant be that bad

we'll see

[robust cave]

It isn't that bad

[worldly tusk]

the covers looks legit pg13

[daring jacinth]

is mono just random or does it actual have a structure?

[robust cave]

People seriously overreact to how "bad" it gets

[sweet cosmos]

Monogotari feels like an anime only japanese can enjoy

[storm basin]

Nice set up

[daring jacinth]

there are many different watch orders for some readon

[worldly tusk]

hmmm thats what im thinking

like it cant be that bad and still loved

[coral sedge]

nah

[robust cave]

It's a collection of tales that are non-chronological

[storm basin]

How is a lvl 3 newbie an anime star

Is this haru?

[worldly tusk]

mt isnt that bad and hated for what degen it has

[coral sedge]

i cant even say anything because i'lll get banned

[worldly tusk]

reset

[coral sedge]

no hes too smart

[daring jacinth]

siesta and them with some others have been debating about something for 5hr+

[sweet cosmos]

Its just your average anime shenanigans

[storm basin]

5+ hours no lifing on animazing... craaazy

[coral sedge]

have you read or watched uma musume Cinderella gray

[daring jacinth]

fr

[fervent breach]

some of the games are jp only

[robust cave]

Watched yeah

[storm basin]

You cant say anything these days on animazing

[sweet cosmos]

All my days are productive dw

[daring jacinth]

i dont mind as im learing japanese

[storm basin]

Animazing literally turned into 1984...

[worldly tusk]

anyways gng today i sleep early imma go watch classroom of the mid new season till i sleep

[storm basin]

Sure pal!

[worldly tusk]

✌️ gn

[sweet cosmos]

Yall just make sure to focus on your success

[coral sedge]

if you got caught watching monogatari at work your lawyer license would be suspended

[fervent breach]

Extra CCC is the only one untranslated. Unless you wanna find one of like 50 copies of Tsukihime and good luck with Kagetsu Tohya and Plus Disc

[sweet cosmos]

And maybe one day we will meet at the top where the sigmas reside ⭐️

[fervent breach]

same for melty actually

[agile turtle]

nostalgia

[daring jacinth]

okay

[fervent breach]

MBAACC is the only one translated along with Type Lumina

[storm basin]

True, and you would be thrown in jail

[fervent breach]

the only one i dont own anymore is Stay night

which i would buy but i dont have money for it rn

[coral sedge]

false i live in bulgaria its ok here

[fervent breach]

its like 20 bucks on sale

and the Extella games go on sale pretty for cheap

[robust cave]

Those are the psp games right?

[storm basin]

Every mono fan should move there

[coral sedge]

didnt one of these discs get destroyed recently

[fervent breach]

no those are Extra

[fervent breach]

it was the half moon version

[robust cave]

That's tsukihime 1999 Demo

[fervent breach]

yes

[robust cave]

1 in 50 copies

Huge cultural loss

[fervent breach]

mhm

thank you US customs

[storm basin]

There are still 49 copies?

[robust cave]

Well

[storm basin]

How is this a cultural loss

[robust cave]

I think they might have made 50

[storm basin]

I would understand if it was 1 of 1

[robust cave]

And who knows how many of those are in tact

[fervent breach]

probably not many

Extra and CCC are the PSP games though Hermit

[robust cave]

Nacho I think they distributed these back in some convention in Japan to collect money to finish the vn

[fervent breach]

Extella and Extella Link are sequels

and theyre on modern platforms besides Xbox

[robust cave]

I will emulate

[storm basin]

That would be such a nice item to own

[robust cave]

But I have to read hollow ataraxia first

[storm basin]

If only...

[robust cave]

Yeah

[tender shoal]

sup

[storm basin]

True collectors item

[robust cave]

The monkeys at us customs destroyed it because they most likely looked inside and saw anime girls

[storm basin]

Not like collecting shit they make on industrial levels

They thought it was loli h

[fervent breach]

good VN

RAHHH 100%

[robust cave]

Cultural value aside, it's also a giant financial loss

[coral sedge]

weebs are the most discriminated minority of the 21st century i can't take it anymore bros

[robust cave]

That probably cost thousands

[storm basin]

He should be compensated

[robust cave]

It was acquired at an auction mostly likely

[fervent breach]

yeah

he should be compensated

but its the US government so hes not getting it

[coral sedge]

kind of but normies think all anime girls are children

[robust cave]

And obviously type moon isn't going to make another copy of it

[fervent breach]

ofc not

HERMIT DID YOU SEE

[storm basin]

All anime girls are my children

[fervent breach]

THE FATE/PROTOTYPE FRAGMENTS OF SKY SILVER MANGA IS GETTING AN ENGLISH TRANSLATION

OFFICIALLY

[robust cave]

I did not

[fervent breach]

YEN PRESS MADE A POST ABOUT IT

[robust cave]

Is that canon?

[fervent breach]

WE'RE FINALLY GETTING A TYPE-MOON MANGA TRANSLATED

[fervent breach]

wtf you mean is it canon

[robust cave]

Honestly it's so fucked up what happened with fate

People just write whatever they want

[fervent breach]

yeah but they right peak so idc

[robust cave]

Is nasu even involved in half of these?

[fervent breach]

aka Type Redline

[robust cave]

You don't see other IPs getting treated like this

[fervent breach]

yeah actually

[robust cave]

They treat fate the way western comics are treated

[fervent breach]

like Nasu writes or supervises most of the things

[robust cave]

Meh

Idk I'm not a fan

[fervent breach]

like

[cedar brook]

Good night, everyone.

[fervent breach]

he didnt do anything for Case Files, Prototype, Redline, Strange Fake, theres some more but here we are

Case Files is fire

i havent read prototype yet but i will

Redline is amazing

Strange Fake is incredible

like

even if he doesnt personally oversee it its still fire

[fervent breach]

like strange fake is fire

[robust cave]

I gotta be honest I just wanna watch the slice of life spin offs

[fervent breach]

go watch the Emiya cooking show

[robust cave]

That's the only reason I read heavens feel 😭

No I wanna read more

Hollow ataraxia

[fervent breach]

[robust cave]

Then I will

Watch zero possibly

[fervent breach]

Zero is not SOL

im gonna rewatch Zero

[robust cave]

I know

I will watch the sol after

Zero

[fervent breach]

smart

[robust cave]

And then I will end myself

Because nothing good will ever happen again

[fervent breach]

theres plenty of good things

[coral sedge]

psyop

[fervent breach]

not even a psyop

i wanna end it all half the time

but i havent yet

because theres some good things

[robust cave]

#hopecore

There's good things like this edit

[fervent breach]

I think archer is dubbed well enough

[fervent breach]

archer yes

[robust cave]

CANNOT WAIT

For shirou day

It's gonna be

Life changing

[fervent breach]

[robust cave]

No

[fervent breach]

[robust cave]

Last shirou day I only read

Fate route

So I abstained

Out of respect

[fervent breach]

my first shirou day was in 2023

For this year

[coral sedge]

[fervent breach]

(idk why hes wearing that shit why tf did they give him that shirt)

[robust cave]

Yeah 😔

Spent 1k on gacha just to drop it

[coral sedge]

but 400 days of daily logins

[robust cave]

Yeah that too

Idk I didn't have it in me

What killed my motivation was

I wanted to do well in endgame

And have insane units

But I always invested wrong

Because I didn't think enough about what I was doing

I just couldn't be arsed to put actual effort into it

[hazy lava]

I heard we getting fate part 2 collab

[robust cave]

And it just killed my inside

[fervent breach]

@robust cave like bro he looks fine apart from that fuckass shirt

[robust cave]

I still haven't played the first one

[fervent breach]

thats my guy right there

[hazy lava]

I heard we getting rin and Gilgamesh as playable characters too

[robust cave]

I have some edits of him but I am not allowed to send them

[robust cave]

Yeah same

But it's like

I don't care anymore

It's over

I just wanna move on

[fervent breach]

theyre the good ones

[coral sedge]

...to a new gacha!

[fervent breach]

UMAMUSUME

RAHHHH

[hazy lava]

The factory must grow

[robust cave]

I plan to do exactly that actually

I will play neverness to everness

Try to at least

[fervent breach]

no Uma?

[robust cave]

Hell fucking no

[fervent breach]

wtf you mean hell fucking no

fuck you too

[coral sedge]

umamusume is brutal in how much you have to whale if you want to play meta

[fervent breach]

no its not?

i havent spent ANY money on the game

[agile turtle]

I might cook a second dinner

[hazy lava]

Ts reminds me with gta 6 release schedule

[fervent breach]

and im getting like A+ careers so

[agile turtle]

Campfire Cooking in Another World S2 is inspiring me

[coral sedge]

the company was getting called out for speeding up banner progression by like 70% without compensating with the necessary carrots

[fervent breach]

they gave me like free 120 pulls last week

[agile turtle]

Thaz insane

[fervent breach]

well last 2 weeks

[agile turtle]

What's the pity?

[fervent breach]

as well as they show up and gift 3000 carats to everyone

[fervent breach]

200 pulls

1500 carats is a 10x pull

[agile turtle]

200 pull pity mechanic? 💀

[hazy lava]

Ts reminds me of fgo

[fervent breach]

fgo worse

[agile turtle]

Did you play FGO?

[supple venture]

DBZ is so goated

[fervent breach]

330 pulls

[coral sedge]

incorrect

[agile turtle]

330!?!

[fervent breach]

and carats are DOGSHIT to get

sorry

SQ

its ABYSMAL

[hazy lava]

No but i saw vids about it

[fervent breach]

and the drop rates are DOGSHIT too

i play FGO

i have a harder time getting 5 stars in fgo than i do in Uma

[agile turtle]

I'm sorry for you sanity

[hazy lava]

Ts damn hard😭

[fervent breach]

FGO sucks

dont play it

UMA

on the other hand

is UMAZING

[hazy lava]

I will hop on wuwa instead

[agile turtle]

I see what you did there slaps knee

[robust cave]

I feel like uma is for ultra sweats

[coral sedge]

goldship the only good thing about it

[fervent breach]

youre larping

theres so many umazing things about it

aka her

[robust cave]

Golshi most overrated uma of all time

Along with Tachyon

[coral sedge]

you can get good careers being f2p but if you're playing it with how you tried playing hsr you will cry i promise and 1k won't save you 😔

[robust cave]

Give some more love to jungle pocket

[fervent breach]

name 5 umas that arent Gold Ship, Tachyon, Cafe, Special Week, or fucking Mambo

[coral sedge]

i cant name 1 even actually

[fervent breach]

straight up lying bro

also the Umas are based off of real life horses

so their careers are practically the same

and names are too

so those are all real horses i named

[robust cave]

Jungle pocked satano diamond mejiro mcqueen kitasan black tokai teio symboli Rudolf tamamo cross oguri cap stay gold

[agile turtle]

almost finished with Campfire Cooking S2

[fervent breach]

do you know who Mr. C.B. is?

[robust cave]

No

[fervent breach]

thats my goat right there

[robust cave]

But I saw a name like that once

[fervent breach]

he won the triple crown the year before Symboli Rudolf

[robust cave]

Is it good?

[robust cave]

No way right?

[agile turtle]

for cozy isekaislop it is

[fervent breach]

no he did

look him up

[robust cave]

Fucking hell

[fervent breach]

my top 3 are CB, T.M. Opera O, and Aston Machan

Opera O ran 8 races in the year 2000

he won ALL 8

[robust cave]

Did you find out what "eclipse first, the rest nowhere" meant?

[fervent breach]

he was the most dominant horse that year

earning him the nickname

The Centurial Overlord

thats my fucking goat

[fervent breach]

yes

but you should find out for yourself

[robust cave]

Eclipse was some

Super strong horse

[coral sedge]

domination is overrated, perseverance in the face of defeat is goated that's why my favorite umamusume is the pink girl

[robust cave]

From like

WAAAY back

[fervent breach]

you dont even know her name

[robust cave]

It's like of the 3rd generation

Of racehorses ever

[fervent breach]

wtf are you talking about

[robust cave]

Me?

I was

[coral sedge]

names are irrelevant when you connect with someoens heart

[robust cave]

Going down the sires of the horses

[fervent breach]

like the british horse

Eclipse

[robust cave]

All the way down

Yeah

That's what I'm saying

It was a very dominant horse

[fervent breach]

whyd we go there

[robust cave]

Go where

[fervent breach]

all the way to the 18th century?

[robust cave]

Why not

I just cruised through the Wikipedia pages

[fervent breach]

the real change in japanese horse racing was when we sent over a US horse named Sunday SIlence

he sired so many horses its not even funny

[coral sedge]

were you doing the challenge where you try to end up on hitlers wikipedia page from a random article

[robust cave]

No

[coral sedge]

oh nvm i didnt read the context of that haha 😔

[robust cave]

I was just super bored

[finite sonnet]

@fervent breach You feel better?

[coral sedge]

shrimp

[robust cave]

I wanted to know how deep the horseracing history went

[fervent breach]

no

not really

[finite sonnet]

That's me

[robust cave]

It's actually pretty well recorded

[fervent breach]

if you join VC ill tell you all about Japanese horses

[coral sedge]

you should become an alcoholic

[fervent breach]

no

[robust cave]

Oh you educated yourself on it?

[fervent breach]

yes

i read wikipedia pages

[robust cave]

Nice

[fervent breach]

all sorts of them

and then went to horse farms

[robust cave]

The fuck

😭

Hype

[fervent breach]

yeah

horses are fire

really sweet

[autumn fulcrum]

@worldly tusk on episode 3, seems good so far

[coral sedge]

OMG PEAK

[autumn fulcrum]

You finished it?

[coral sedge]

yes i can send you an explanation of the movie after you watch it and don't understand anything

literally need psychoanalysis masters degree to get it

[autumn fulcrum]

I think there's 2 movies?

[coral sedge]

no theres 3 but 2 of them are just recaps of the tv show

only watch the 3rd movie

theres also 4th coming in august after like 15 years

[autumn fulcrum]

I hate recap movies

[coral sedge]

3rd movie is not recap

[autumn fulcrum]

So when I'm ready, I'll skip the recap movies

[coral sedge]

ye

[coral sedge]

cant wait for 4th movie

[autumn fulcrum]

Is the 3rd movie in between 1st and 2nd season?

[coral sedge]

i should rewatch again

[coral sedge]

oh ive only watched the 1st season but the other tv shows arent considered very good and im not sure how cannon they are

but yes

watch after s1

[robust cave]

There are other madoka magica seasons?

[autumn fulcrum]

After the 1st season, I see 1 season with 8 episodes and another season 4 episodes
I'm not if it's all just season 2 for the 8+4

[fervent breach]

thats my goat

[coral sedge]

yes it's called magia record but the story is adapter from a game and im not sure if urobutcher was involved in it

[sonic vessel]

🤔

[coral sedge]

the 8 ep one is sequel to magia record which has 13 eps

so yes thats s2

[sonic vessel]

myau how many series have u watched

[coral sedge]

idk like 250 or 300

[sonic vessel]

it's like u have endless anime knowledge

[sonic vessel]

ah im a rookie compared to you

[autumn fulcrum]

The 4 episodes is season 3 I guess?

[coral sedge]

a lot of ppl here have like 700-800

[untold finch]

[sonic vessel]

who

[coral sedge]

sure idk

[autumn fulcrum]

I'm at 747

[sonic vessel]

holy shiet

[coral sedge]

dev, gob, alcor maybe?, jiya, siesta prob too

[sonic vessel]

ik gob has a high amount

[sonic vessel]

anime veteran!

[coral sedge]

0 manga 💀

[sacred anvil]

I watched the loli hitler anime ep 1 and its kinda mid for the first ep

[sonic vessel]

maybe doesnt track

[coral sedge]

i wanted to watch that

[supple venture]

konosuba in top 10 🔥

[coral sedge]

i'll wait until it finishes and start s1 ig

[autumn fulcrum]

I hate to read in my personal timeoff work, I read over 500 pages of clinicals a day at work. I don't want to do more reading when I'm off

[sacred anvil]

You should

[sonic vessel]

reading our writing looool

[sweet cosmos]

some people fr have jobs

[supple venture]

i agree i dont like mangas either

[sweet cosmos]

Best manga clears best anime

Anyday

[autumn fulcrum]

Reading, I have to review prior authorizations and make a judgment to approve or deny

[robust cave]

It's always clear clear clear with you freaks

[supple venture]

health insurance

[sonic vessel]

im academically required to delay my employment

[sonic vessel]

I mean our doctors writing hehe

[sweet cosmos]

Education is ok

Im kinda into neither

[robust cave]

It's called petals of reincarnation

And no it's nothing life changing

[sacred anvil]

And i call it the loli hitler anime

[autumn fulcrum]

They write bad, most nurse practitioners had very good writing, the female ones

[coral sedge]

based

[sonic vessel]

im gon be one of them

[robust cave]

You're wrong

[outer plover]

yo suite

[autumn fulcrum]

Women write more clearly than men

[sweet cosmos]

Ig they write like that make it harder to forge receipts or something

[sacred anvil]

Thats the only thing i know about the anime
There's hitler and he's a girl

[supple venture]

i used to write so illegibly then my grandma made me practice so much and now i write like arial font

[outer plover]

hi pepito

[sonic vessel]

mostly because no family doctor has time to write neatly

[coral sedge]

wait the girl is hitler???

[sonic vessel]

its the hardest job in medicine for a reason

as in labor and effort needed on a daily basis

[robust cave]

What a sad legacy petals of reincarnation will have 😔

[sweet cosmos]

I mean its a question of few seconds
Maybe they are encouraged

[sweet cosmos]

Or yeah maybe its the stress

[supple venture]

nurse or doctor

[sonic vessel]

and hand tiredness

[robust cave]

Patient

[sonic vessel]

im in med school so doctor but I meant that im gonna be one of the messy writers probably as well

[coral sedge]

nothing pops up when i google it i think you are wrong

[robust cave]

Not even kidding maybe it's blocked in Bulgaria

[autumn fulcrum]

I denied this Viagra request, it was a dentist who prescribed it. He said his patient needed it because he would grind his teeth in frustration when he couldn't get a b*ner

[robust cave]

Dude

How does suite complain about reading subtitles

[sonic vessel]

LOOOL

[robust cave]

And than happily chat away on discord

😭😭😭😭

😭😭😭😭😭

That makes no damn sense

[sweet cosmos]

When u read sub u miss out on animations

With dub you can focus completely

So it is optimal

[robust cave]

That's not what he is saying tho

[sonic vessel]

no i have peripheral vision

also native speakers can skim

they barely have to read at all

[autumn fulcrum]

This guy is right

[sweet cosmos]

Its not about skimming its about letting yourself be immersed in art

Japanese people never read subs

[sonic vessel]

I always appreciate the art

[robust cave]

The horrible voice acting will pull you right out of it

[coral sedge]

most of the time animation quality isnt good enough to even consider this

[sonic vessel]

but the reading isnt that attention needy

[sweet cosmos]

So when doing a Japanese hobby respect their practices of listening

[sonic vessel]

like me reading one scene subtitles takes .5 seconds max and I also use peripheral vision

[sweet cosmos]

Depends, for stuff like dandadan sub is a must

Other animes dub is fine most often

[autumn fulcrum]

I'm enjoying it right now before they start using AI voices

[sweet cosmos]

Then watch better animes idk

[robust cave]

I'm German so my experience with dubs is better overall but whenever I hear English dubs I physically cringe

[coral sedge]

i watch shows with good stories 🙂‍↔️

[robust cave]

German dub is pretty good most of the time

But no torrent ever has German dub 😔

[sweet cosmos]

Maybe you get used to that if done for a long time
But I notice that my enjoyment is better if I can do it more relaxed
Like eat n watch

[autumn fulcrum]

At least it's not Brit English

[sweet cosmos]

Which good stories have bad art
Usually its hand in hand

[robust cave]

Both sound like this

[autumn fulcrum]

Lolololololol

[sonic vessel]

I've felt like the voices in sub usually match the characters better and sound more authentic

that because japs take voice acting very seriously

industry is way bigger

[fervent breach]

you should hear my voice acting

[sweet cosmos]

Cowboy bebop dub for example is amazing
I can’t remember a rly terrible dub besides that one robot voice in oshinoko season 2

[robust cave]

It's not even that

[sonic vessel]

stick to piano

[fervent breach]

Triguns dub is great too

[robust cave]

The voice acting for Western cartoons is fine

You watch family guy or Simpsons and the voice acting is good

[sweet cosmos]

Even Japanese cringe when listening to anime

No one speaks like that irl

[robust cave]

But for anime it's always so ass

[autumn fulcrum]

@robust cave at least anime English va doesn't sound like this...

[fervent breach]

shoutout to Johnny Yong Bosch

[sonic vessel]

I do not think they do

[coral sedge]

their conversations are more cringe irl

[robust cave]

HAHAHAH but this kind of makes sense for Frieren lol

[sweet cosmos]

If you talked like in anime they would look at you weird

[sonic vessel]

most japs much prefer their own va

[sweet cosmos]

They are all about tones

[sweet cosmos]

Obviously since its like dub for them

[sonic vessel]

yeah cause its fiction

[robust cave]

What they do is still a lot better

[sonic vessel]

everyone knows they dont speak like that irl

they wouldnt be weirded out by it cause the grammar is slightly diff

[robust cave]

The voice acting for Ruby in the last oshi no ko episode was mind-blowing

[coral sedge]

western cartoons are more about being cool and nonchalant as opposed to a lot of anime shows, so that's what western vas are good at

[sweet cosmos]

Also you cant sub in 2x

But you can dub in 2x

[sonic vessel]

we have some Japanese natives here maybe u can ask them

[sweet cosmos]

Which saves a lot of time

[coral sedge]

[robust cave]

Wow what a horrible argument

[fervent breach]

you can

[sweet cosmos]

I mean that’s what I heard from Japanese interviews on youtube but sure

[sonic vessel]

just read faster

[fervent breach]

true

[robust cave]

Watching things sped up is anti art

[fervent breach]

it is

[sonic vessel]

true

which is ur main point

[sweet cosmos]

You will completely miss out on art
In like a jjk fight scene
I had to rewatch the mahoraga fight 10 times

[fervent breach]

i only watch at normal speed

[sonic vessel]

counter intuitive

[robust cave]

At that point you're not watching or reading art you're consuming a product

[autumn fulcrum]

The Legend of Vox Machina is a good western cartoon, comes close to looking like anime

[fervent breach]

buu CAN watch it a 2x speed

[coral sedge]

just read books if you wanna get cultured, most shows arent really intellectually relevant, they're just for to watch as entertainment

[sweet cosmos]

Not all art is equal art

[sonic vessel]

everyone knows subs is generally better than dubbed

deep inside the dub watchers knoe too

[fervent breach]

it is better

but some dubs are really good

[sonic vessel]

Definitely!

[sweet cosmos]

Depends
Eva is what gave me my first existential crisis
Tokyo Ghoul is one of the best written pieces of fiction

[sonic vessel]

some are good

[agile turtle]

True

[fervent breach]

there are some amazing dub VAs too

[autumn fulcrum]

Ghost Stories dub is good lol

[sonic vessel]

never seen a particularly bad Japanese dub tho

never has crossed my mind

[sweet cosmos]

Thats what made it legendary

[coral sedge]

peak

[robust cave]

If you gotta watch an anime sped up to enjoy it you're better off dropping it

[sonic vessel]

better off not watching anime at all

[agile turtle]

people who don't like American English hate on English Dubs

[upbeat saddle]

The only dub I really like is Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood

[coral sedge]

have you seen texhnolyze

[agile turtle]

That's what I've come to realize

[sonic vessel]

just speedrun a game or smth

[fervent breach]

i like Cyberpunk Edgerunners dub

fits the world

[autumn fulcrum]

That's true

[fervent breach]

i only watch dub if i think itll fit the world well

[upbeat saddle]

That one is pretty good too

[coral sedge]

haibane renmei dub seems really good tbh

[agile turtle]

it took me many arguments with Gob and Alcor to realize ts

[coral sedge]

hop on haibane renmei ik you'll like it

[sweet cosmos]

Thats unfair
I generally watch most of the stuff in 2x, but like if a show is particularly good, there is no need for 2x
Like I watched Dune movie in 1x

[fervent breach]

like for anime taking place in Japan ill just watch subbed

its fine

[robust cave]

German dungeon meshi dub is good

[sweet cosmos]

Not yet

[steel crystal]

Amazing, @sweet cosmos you leveled up to 10!

[fervent breach]

but for something like Cyberpunk, or Frieren, ill watch dub

[upbeat saddle]

I find that sub is more authentic and has better emotion portrayal and they put more effort into it than most dub voice actors do

[robust cave]

Let it go bro

[sweet cosmos]

U asked…

[robust cave]

Nah

It's like

What am I reading

[upbeat saddle]

Watching a show in 2x speed is for people with little to no attention span

[agile turtle]

I'd show them clear examples where the English dub was better than the sub on specific scenes and they couldn't accept that such a thing is even possible cause of their preconceived notions about American English

[upbeat saddle]

Sorry but that just a waste of watching

[robust cave]

You're not watching you're consuming

[upbeat saddle]

Need to watch it in its entirety at its own pacing to be more immersed

[sweet cosmos]

Most of the time the things that I 2x is very predictable and non that important

Or doesn’t require 1x

[coral sedge]

i never minded the slow pace and the occasional boring ep unlike most people but i could understand texhnolyze being a 2x type show, its really deep though😔

[upbeat saddle]

At that point I wouldn’t even bother watching it

[robust cave]

Very upsetting

[autumn fulcrum]

I never speed watch animes

[upbeat saddle]

I never have and I never will

[sweet cosmos]

Idk how I watched monster in 1x
But thats cuz I was watching it while eating

[upbeat saddle]

I watch it on my own time when I get it, and at the pace it’s supposed to be watched

[sweet cosmos]

If I think that anime is particularly bad I just watch a recap on YouTube

Like I do rn

[autumn fulcrum]

Netflix has that option

Btw

[coral sedge]

what

[sweet cosmos]

1.5 but its terrible

The sound doesn’t link

[autumn fulcrum]

Speed watching shows

[coral sedge]

crazy

[sweet cosmos]

And weird sound quality

[autumn fulcrum]

Exactly

[robust cave]

Just read the wiki synopsis at that point

[storm basin]

The overlords keep me from speaking my mind

[sweet cosmos]

Im just optimizing my time

[storm basin]

There are some wikis than have the plot explained so well thats just like reading a book

[autumn fulcrum]

Yeah, they mute you all the time

[sweet cosmos]

Since I want to be both open minded and see all worthy of watch animes

[upbeat saddle]

I don’t need to use it tbh

[sweet cosmos]

As soon as possible

[robust cave]

If you wanna optimize your time you're better of starting a side hustle

[coral sedge]

idk the way i see it, find a new hobby if you cant enjoy watching stuff at its normal pace or just read books since 99% of anime isnt really that deep and you could easily find hundreds of books more worth your time if you want knowledge or philosophy

[sweet cosmos]

I don’t treat media as a means to an end
But an end in itself

Thats how much I appreciate art

[autumn fulcrum]

Speed reading manga bad too?

[sweet cosmos]

Im doing both
And sometimes I find great animes that make it worth it

[robust cave]

Optimizing Art

[sweet cosmos]

Thats kinda hard
I haven’t speed red in a while so I can’t do that yet but I can read fast

[coral sedge]

1 out of 10 anime being worth isn't a good investment of time though

[robust cave]

I'm speechless honestly

[sweet cosmos]

I still enjoy that which I watch in 2x tho

Like oshinoko s2 doeasnt need a 1x besides few sakugas

[agile turtle]

S2 was pretty good

S3 was the best so far overall

[sweet cosmos]

The only bad thing is that if you binge something it is easier to not think about it

[outer plover]

yoo

[sweet cosmos]

Waiting for dub…

[upbeat saddle]

What’s up, Darius? Long time no see

🤝

[agile turtle]

L

[sweet cosmos]

L company that dubs it

Western companies don’t respect anime

[outer plover]

nm hbu

[agile turtle]

??

[upbeat saddle]

Same here for the most part. I’ve been a busy bee lately

Any new anime you’ve been watching?

I need to check when the next One Piece episode is coming out

Now that it takes a month

[agile turtle]

Tomorrow

[sweet cosmos]

Thats how human brain works?

[upbeat saddle]

Tomorrow??

[agile turtle]

Yes

[upbeat saddle]

Damn

Good timing

I work tomorrow but it’ll be something to look forward to after my shift

[agile turtle]

Elbaf is going hard

Toei showed us what they could do if they had more time/money to invest into production magic during Egghead

[outer plover]

a month?

[outer plover]

nah

[upbeat saddle]

I’m excited.. now that they have lots of time I’m sure the animation quality will be even more top notch too

[upbeat saddle]

I believe so

Feels like a long damn time anyways

I’m not complaining though, I’ve been busy as hell

[storm basin]

Of all the things you've said this is the most laughable one

[agile turtle]

3 months of lead time and only 26 or 27 episodes per year?? Oh yah brother this is going to be epic

[outer plover]

i just came back from eating hibachi

[upbeat saddle]

All fight scenes will be 10/10

[upbeat saddle]

Should’ve shared some with us

How inconsiderate

(Kidding)

[outer plover]

was bout to say what the!

[sweet cosmos]

It takes 4-5 hours to watch a 12 ep season/anime
if I half the time I can watch twice as much anime

I think that’s just a skill issue on ur part

[storm basin]

If you're just watching for the numbers you do you

[outer plover]

yo

[sweet cosmos]

My brain has naturally a faster processing speed

[outer plover]

hi

[sweet cosmos]

I retain and remember nearly everything

[storm basin]

Yo!

[storm basin]

Sure bud!

[outer plover]

hyd

[sweet cosmos]

And can feel all emotions that Id feel in 1x

[sweet cosmos]

Yo

[coral sedge]

but you needed like 6 explanations to understand lain which isnt even that complex so long as you pay attention, whats the point in experiencing art and its messages this way if they go over your head

[storm basin]

Im watching this anime called ***** * * * ** ** * * * Im doing great

[coral sedge]

its just consumption without enjoyment or understanding

[sweet cosmos]

The fact that lain flew over your head and you needed to rewatch is not a flex.
If you care about something you naturally want to learn more about it, thats a given

[robust cave]

Oh my fucking god

[sweet cosmos]

I engage with media more holistically

[robust cave]

He can't read

[storm basin]

This has to be haruzei with an old account trolling

[supple venture]

i watch teeaboo to analyze an anime for me

[agile turtle]

🧢

[sweet cosmos]

It just might be that different people have different iqs

[storm basin]

Who else is this ***

[coral sedge]

i made my own conclusions on lain just fine though, and i didnt rewatch because i didnt understand but because i wanted to watch it again after i saw it last a few years ago

[storm basin]

Whats your IQ

[supple venture]

at its core lain is a critique on transhumanism

[sweet cosmos]

Same goes for me, but Im open minded so I like to learn more and test myself

[coral sedge]

[sweet cosmos]

Im not tested but Id say between 130-140

Idk tho

[robust cave]

Nice

[sweet cosmos]

I just like self improvement

[supple venture]

im closed minded cuz i dont wanna learn more than i need

[coral sedge]

yet all those philosophers you discussed earlier would advocate on how important patience is

[worldly tusk]

See i only rec peak

[sweet cosmos]

I doubt that

If anything I feel like theyd have regrets

Especially guys like Nietzsche

[coral sedge]

chuds?

[sweet cosmos]

Life moves fast, gotta be faster

[storm basin]

What is the purpose of learning if I've lived all this time without those things I havent learnt yet?

[sweet cosmos]

Sure call him that, idc to defend him

[supple venture]

good point

[sweet cosmos]

I like certain of his ideas tho, thats all

[autumn fulcrum]

[worldly tusk]

Now enjoy the watch✌️

[coral sedge]

life moves around pretty fast but if you dont stop to smell the flowers once in a while you could miss it thats how the saying goes

[agile turtle]

when YT philsophybro becomes an "anime consumer" @sweet cosmos

Istg this has got to be some elaborate comedy bit

[sweet cosmos]

Its like 8 years if not 10 that I actively watch anime

[sonic vessel]

siesta 2.0

[pseudo kite]

well just came back from watching the new mario movie, 8/10!

[agile turtle]

no he's even worse

[sonic vessel]

😭

[outer plover]

yo duggy

[sweet cosmos]

Yes and no
I still enjoy my life but at the same time you gotta work early, if you want to succeed

[pseudo kite]

heya darius

[worldly tusk]

Ur on discord bro✌️

[sweet cosmos]

You never know where from you can learn
And also I don’t use discord too much in general

At least be anime elitists and not just anti intellectualists

I thought elitism was cool

[coral sedge]

disgusting

[sonic vessel]

lets jump this guy

[coral sedge]

elitists are just a hivemind circlejerk

[steel crystal]

Amazing, @coral sedge you leveled up to 39!

[worldly tusk]

U aint when u lowkenuinely think aot's ending is better than code geass

[sonic vessel]

39

[worldly tusk]

✌️

[sonic vessel]

the fuck is lowkenuinely

[sweet cosmos]

I hate it that with normies unless ur status quo ur a loser

[sonic vessel]

lol

[worldly tusk]

[sweet cosmos]

You cant be normal and expect exceeding normal results lowkirkenuinely

[sonic vessel]

don't tell him chat

he doesn't know

[worldly tusk]

What is he even on about atp

[sonic vessel]

he lacks critical information

[pseudo kite]

time to get my high ass to bed

[worldly tusk]

Haha rest duggy

[supple venture]

||i wanted aot to end like the movie the mist where eren ends up killing his friends and then finds out that armin had a plan that wouldve saved everyone|| aot

[coral sedge]

most disgusting sentence ive ever read considering elitists never have an original opinion that doesnt align with the rest of the hivemind, because at the end of the day its all performative larp for losers who wish to feel superior yet can only achieve this in niche communities

[steel crystal]

Amazing, @coral sedge you leveled up to 39!

[pseudo kite]

also today been on hell of a dega vu type of day feels like ive lived this day 4 times already

[coral sedge]

elitists are absolute bitches

[pseudo kite]

[sweet cosmos]

Ik elitism is goofy but at least with pseudo intellectuals there is an image of not just being an anti intellectual

U think I care about labels

Its just goofy words on goofy internet

Come on now😭

[coral sedge]

'intellectuals' are just midwits pretending to be smart

like you

[sonic vessel]

why are we getting philosophical about classifications of anime watchers

[coral sedge]

on discord

[sweet cosmos]

So no one can be smart besides those in academia

Good brainwashing

[sonic vessel]

don't think myau is saying that

[sweet cosmos]

High up in academia*

[sweet cosmos]

Every statement has an implication

[supple venture]

[sonic vessel]

let's let him clarify

[coral sedge]

are you projecting over not getting a good education or what

[sweet cosmos]

I scored 41/45 in IB and got in top 15 uni worldwide but that genuinely means nothing

Just saying that if you call yourself smart you must be stupid is kinda boring response

[coral sedge]

also i dont consider 'academia intellectuals' any different, just saying people like you and siesta are dumb and only good at being pretentious

[sweet cosmos]

So who would look smart to you

[sonic vessel]

[coral sedge]

me

[sweet cosmos]

Old chinese guy with a kettle in mountains?

[supple venture]

i dont need intelligence to enjoy anime

[autumn fulcrum]

@fringe sluice peak theme park

[sonic vessel]

woah

but why France

[supple venture]

i wanan go to ichiraku ramen

[sonic vessel]

eh its midruto anyways

[supple venture]

😋

[sweet cosmos]

Of course
But you need a certain level of it to interact with it on a deeper level
Especially if an anime covers difficult topics

[coral sedge]

bro you cant even understand lain

[autumn fulcrum]

Japan has one, US needs one
But why? Idk

[sweet cosmos]

Anyways Im just saying obvious things

Yall agree prolly

Just actin tsundere

[supple venture]

lain is better enjoyed at a surface level
going deeper just disappoints u with konaka’s conspiracy theories

[coral sedge]

the moment you watch an anime with more complex themes you need to google explanations, where did your high iq and intellectuallism go

[sweet cosmos]

No you google if the author had a cryptic narrative

[balmy sorrel]

0 days without anime community arguing about elitisism and such

[sweet cosmos]

But sure we can live in a fantasy where you who doesn’t respect treating anime in a more intellectual capacity to be more successful at it than those who do

[balmy sorrel]

anime watching cannot be this deep

[sweet cosmos]

Authors who give their lives to write those stories

[balmy sorrel]

the right audience will get to it anyways

[long egret]

I'm just going to watch this

[balmy sorrel]

there's no point in getting pressed over people who watch for the sake of a fun watch

[coral sedge]

yeah and you butcher how you experience them amazing

[teal spruce]

[supple venture]

the person i consider the most intellectual prominent anime watcher is a youtuber named teeaboo. he used to be a very successful high school competitive debater a decade ago and his skills at analysis are so impressive and he’s able to make it entertaining too

[sweet cosmos]

So you mean to say Im not wrong about it

Good

[balmy sorrel]

believe it or not no matter how many normies watch your favourite shows, the people who will actually appreciate what you appreciate about it are still gonna be there

[outer plover]

yoo

[sweet cosmos]

Yeah but you never know
You shouldn’t be closed minded about other people

[teal spruce]

yeee

[sweet cosmos]

That’s disrespectful lwk
Maybe someone will feel motivated to watch yt vids

And understand aot ending better

[bleak shale]

[agile turtle]

Re:Zero is peak S4 drops starting this Wednesday!

[supple venture]

re zero was great but i lost interest in the emilia backstory part

[warped fiber]

Erm lets see
1.Fate(it's not overall an anime but counts)
2.Bleach
3.Garden of Sinners

[agile turtle]

Peak list!!

[agile turtle]

oh yeah the movie?

[warped fiber]

Yeah

All my friends are larping

[supple venture]

[warped fiber]

[agile turtle]

[agile turtle]

As in they pretending to be huge Re:Zero fans or smthn?

[warped fiber]

[warped fiber]

Yup

Over the stairs scene

[agile turtle]

LMAO

[agile turtle]

Aura Monster scene will be in S4 P2

[autumn fulcrum]

Looks interesting and it is being dubbed

[supple venture]

looks like fun

[autumn fulcrum]

The original Fairy Tail series is out of print and this is what it's going for....

[agile turtle]

The manga is by the same mangaka who made FMA

[autumn fulcrum]

I didn't know that

[agile turtle]

The pilot was pretty good

Animation was good, action was good, unique premise, there's mystery to what's going on

[sterile charm]

Not worth it lol

[tulip cove]

worth it

up to ep4 of onimai

so far so peak

[sterile charm]

Is it the dvds or the manga

Why does it says dvd and then say volume 23

[tulip cove]

the listing says dvds

o ur right

[sterile charm]

Volume 23-26 plus full dvd collection

Either way 1.6k for fairytale isnt worth it

[swift fulcrum]

Yeah I saw ts on insta
I saw other companies doing ta as well
