    i somehow missed that shaft was making a rwby anime, that's interesting

  2. I stopped watching it, i figure i'll idly watch the rest at some point but it did not make me care about it in the slightest.

     

    About to watch the finale of Ya Boy Kongming (which I have VERY MUCH enjoyed still) and then I've been saving Komi episodes for a binge watch after we finish the deep clean of the house (which is any day now) and then I'm gonna give Deaimon a watch


  3. I just realized that while it was a general joke, I was referencing something you might not have seen so allow me to amuse you (maybe) with the reason I caution you about terlit zooms---

     

    From a topic on reddit titled  "What's the dumbest mistake you've seen an incompetent co-worker make?"

    I worked for a non-profit that hired a guy in fundraising purely “for his rolodex” and they couldn’t care less about any of his job functions as long as he kept bringing more rich people to fundraiser parties. Well when the pandemic hit and we were forced to go remote, it became clear how incompetent he was with technology, and how he’d been coasting for years in the office by sticking to phone calls instead of email, etc. We had our first major online fundraiser coming up and I warned my boss that this dude had no idea how Zoom worked - never muted himself, camera up the nose, treated it like watching a YouTube video. But again, he was the guy inviting all the rich people to the event, so they didn’t want to “lecture him about a computer program” and “hurt his ego”.

    Then in our massive 200+ person zoom event, he set his laptop on the bathroom counter and proceeded to take a shirtless, nasty old man dump complete with grunting, splashing, and squelching. It was so loud it drowned out the speaker. They had to end the event early because they had no way to mute him and it kept going for a full two minutes with no sign of stopping. I nearly threw my laptop out a window that night.

  4. oh shit i forgot to come in here when we saw it but yeah I'll second MT here---- it's really good, definitely give the original a watch beforehand! It's not a reboot, it is a straight up sequel and plays out like a love letter to the original and what people loved about it. Also really cool plane scenes. 


  5. Yeah, Ayashimon was one that I enjoyed but it didn't quite have a good hook in me until more recently and while I assumed the whole story run would be a shorter one due to the power leap I wasn't expecting this =( It just took a little too long for the plot pacing and the art to reach a more appealing balance, the art style is cool but also a slog on the eyes, way too much scratching and dark blobs. That had really started to even out better by this point. Pacing was slow at first, you could tell there was a "meet and gain allies" roadmap but it just wasn't strong enough. 

     

    Oh well, it seems like the author has had more success with a different series that I haven't read so I'll take a look at that. On to the next shonen jump offering I guess! 


  6. whatever the fuck chapter this was, something .4 i left my phone in my room fuck you

    You did your best, Bond! You'll find a girl that likes caterpillars one of these days. Franky, be better.

    sneaking in an edit to put the side by side I saw on twitter because it made me laugh out loud all over again

  8. Fear no more, looks like the comments I saw about him gettin' in some hot water were just people talking out their ass because SlyFox sub is up on nyaa :lol:

     

    "New release window is now around 24-48h instead of the ~5h after the MX/BS11 airing on TV (or 1-2h after D+)." so I will just be waiting however long it takes for this guy/group/whatever from now on because I'd rather keep up with their subs

     

    I'll watch this ep later today, gettin' shit done for now but I am ready for more!


  9. where are you watching this? It looks like Big Mouse got to the guy that was doing the good subs and the other option i saw on nyaa was apparently machine translations and missing a lot

  10. I am just now realizing that shows marked "dubbed" on there also have the japanese audio option, and I am WAY more interested in it. I'll probably go on and sign up, I didn't want to pay for dubs I will never watch but I would like to watch some of these older shows..... 


  11. Saw it again with Lee today so now that he's seen it too and I got to really talk to someone about it I remembered I never talked in here ahaha

    Now THIS was a Dr Strange movie, or at least more in line with what I've grown up with for Dr. Strange vibes! I won't claim to be knowledgeable about the comics or anything but growing up one of my avenues to my love of weirder things was a small cache of comics that I think came from a garage sale or something and I guess my parents never bothered to check because I was definitely not allowed to consume content about shit like sorcery and demons and wizards and all that until Harry Potter came along lmao 

     

    So Dr Strange through a Raimi lens really brought out a lot of my Strange nostalgia and it was such a blast!

     

    Some of the editing was really unpolished/unfinished feeling, and I can't really pinpoint how much of that was intentional and how much was just "we have to put the movie out it's been long enough" 

     

    Loved the multiverse cameos

    Loved their demises 

    Loved the camp

    Loved the weird vibes

    Loved the music fight

    Loved Zombie Strange and the Cloak of the Damned

     

    I don't really have too much to say I guess because I had my big discussion with Lee and it's all out of my system for now

     

    ALTHOUGH I do have to share how there was a family with a couple of kids who couldn't be older than 8 or 9 and the younger one, while watching part of the preshow that was a feature on the guy who did the finger tutting choreography for the sorcerers, excitedly pointed and shouted "MAGIC! LOOK, DADDY, HE'S DOING MAGIC!"

     

    Saw him hide his face several times. Dad briefly took him out of the theater at least once. When credits rolled he all but sprinted out of the theater. Hope he sleeps well tonight despite his dad being a dick and taking him to something he wasn't quite ready for. :uhoh:
