I winced when I read you visited The 13th Step. Read more

Also a problem with EX raids: jobs. I actually don’t raid that much (at least not in the past month or so), but got my first EX raid invite a few days ago... to a raid that’s happening at 3:30 on a Wednesday. I understand that they don’t want to encourage people staying out super late, but the current raid schedule Read more

Darling in the Franxx so far has been fascinating from a “how far can they push it before they’re classified as an Evangelion porn?” perspective but I’m not saying that makes it good. Just... curious.
Anyhow, I’m liking it >_> Read more

Oi. I know we have been policing women forever, and I saw it first hand growing up when religious leaders tried to police how women dressed for the “sake of the men.” Read more

Sure, sure... I admittedly did sort of run out to lunch before actually finishing. You got me. Read more

How about we...oh I dont know...let women do what they want and stop trying to police them? Radical idea I know... Read more

This article is very clearly not trying to say that no women use sex to draw in viewers, as evidenced by the last paragraph in which they talk to a streamer who blatantly and openly admits to doing so. The point of the article is that people assume that this is the ONLY business model that any woman who streams, ever, Read more

Man, Xianghua has so much booby bounce for such small boobs that I’m legitimately worried that Ivy will black her own eyes. Read more

It’s cool that you can get an idea of what Nightmare’s identity is in each game is based on his design. He’s way less human in IV because he is in fact just a suit of armor and not actually Seigfried anymore. They humanized him again in V because he was now a different human, older and more dignified. And now in VI he Read more

All I know is they have some hilarious Nendoroids that might be worth getting just for the parts...

So.. it’s anime Robot Chicken?

I thought the same thing when it went on the PTR, it’s a god awful boring map. They took a freaking theme park and instead of having you fight inside the actual rides where there could be special effects and light shows and so much other stuff they instead decided to replicate the feeling of walking a stroller past Read more

Kind of agree. The only fresh part in it is the mid section with the round hallway beneath the circular platform. Had a couple of fun fights there. Read more

Agreed, feels very much like Eschiewallers! Read more

Kaiba was the only other thing I liked from this director. But godbless his direction for Crybaby. Bless it. Read more

Ping pong the animation is so fucking good! Best sports anime, all categories; made me cry over a damn karaoke number, 11 episodes, heavy on the characterization, balls to the wall table tennis action. It’s a must-see. Read more

I always say that the last episode of The Tatami Galaxy is one of the greatest pieces of animation I have ever seen. I rank it right up there with, for instance, anything Miyazaki ever directed (a high compliment, believe me). Read more

Devilman Crybaby was very enjoyable for me. I heard some people complain about a lot cut from the original story but being unfamiliar with it the story felt complete and tight with no unnecessary fluff. And the ending fucked my day up like when I watched End of Evangelion for the first time, although EoE somehow Read more
