Chihayafuru Hatena Illusion Infinite Dendrogram Jibaku Shounen Hanako-kun Majutsuhi Orphen Hagure Tabi Pet Show By Rock!! Mashumairesh!!
--Fall 2019 Kono Oto Tomare! Episode 24-26 PSYCHO-PASS Episode 7-8
Anno
I'm not sure what Hatena is, other than it's an LN adaptation. Seems like it has something to do with illusionists and something like phantom thieves maybe. Infinite Dendrogram is another "Players in an MMO game" series I think, though I don't know what its quirk is. Jibaku Shounen Hanako-kun is a comedy with supernatural flair or something. Show By Rock is a new band in the same world I think.
Anno
are you watching the hit new series Life of Bang it's mostly a comedy but like the really sad kind
Anno
wait, chihayafuru is still a thing man i remember years and years ago
Anno
Yeah, season three. It's been fun.
>>791315 Not recently, no. It seems to have gotten dropped from the /moe/ stories package I'm subscribed too.
We'll be getting a whole lotta stuff over the weekend anyway. Railgun should be around by Sunday too. I'm hoping that doesn't take too long to get into the swing of things. The arc this season will cover will be fun.
Anno
What a weird girl.
Anno
Wow she really knocked that one out of the park. Wasn't even a competition. Poor headband girl.
Anno
Oh Arata turned on his SEISHUN lamp.
Anno
I like red bean paste but I'm not big on tapioca.
Anno
I don't speak so softly like this guy but I can kinda get it. I don't really like throwing my voice and being loud.
We could probably start Orphen and Moon can join in if it's not run on too long. It's a first episode and the first chunk is a pretty long flashback prologue.
This is actually a pretty old series. The novels it adapts ran from 1994-2003 or something. It had an adaptation way back in the late 90s in addition to this current one.
Anno
Man she really went full dragon.
Anno
I wonder if this is the original adaptation's OP. The song kinda has a dated feel to it.
Anno
Oh sorcerors being of dragon blood. That's some real classic tabletop fantasy.
Anno
There's a bit of some weird anachronism going on. Like some of the fashion and set-pieces are very sword-and-sorcery but then there's like full three-piece suits and ladies like this one in formal wear as a police officer.
would you all have any interest in watching anime in a VR room? im working with someone on making a world that can be rigged up to load local video files and sync them currently that only works with youtube links
it's going to take a while to make it though
>>791385 it can be done in desktop, but it's a bit hard to justify that over simply watching it in a media player then
Anno
Musikku
>>791384 I guess I'm not averse to the notion but I don't know if I could say I have an interest in it. VR in general has yet to catch my attention as a base concept and without that foundation most anything built on it is kind of more of an "Oh that's cool". I also don't have any VR infrastructure.
New social environments also kinda spook me, even if they're done with people I'm already well-familiar with. When the drawfriends I used to hang out with regularly first moved to Skype for talking (long before Discord was a thing) I remember despite knowing them for like half a year or more, I was still terrified when I first joined the calls and could barely speak. That's always something I have to over come when entering a new social environment.
Anno
The notion of mixing math and music is a good one. Music has a LOT of math mixed into it that most people aren't consciously aware of.
i have an appointment with that patent guy in the morning do we still have two shows left?
>>791442 i was just small talking while waiting i wasn't implying that i need to go are you gonna watch this one? it looks kind of interesting by the artwork
Anno
If you've got important life things in the morning and are really tired anyway. And Rika's obviously got more exciting things on her attention.
WHY ARE WE okay fuck whatever. I'm so tired of talking to the void.
Anno
She's not even reading this she just sees orange and does whatever.
what's the verdict then >>791449 what time are you at? i'll sync up well i'd like to watch it im not started so give me the time
okay
Anno
I don't know. I hit play probably a minute or so late but if this continues I'm probably just bailing.
No it's fine a minute's honestly not a big deal. I don't think this is going to come with any hard hooks that being a bit delayed is going to throw off.
The original manga's art had some really excessive eyes I think. This has done a pretty good job of adapting the colour and style of the manga I think.
Anno
She kinda looks like a Harvest Moon protag.
Anno
I'd seen her ankles were kinda thick in an earlier shot. But I thought it was just a stylization thing.
She's picked a powerful target for her affection. Maybe she should start at a lower level.
Anno
Wow we're really burning through the tropes now.
Anno
I was worried with him being a toilet ghost this would have been more unsavoury humour but it's been much nicer than I expected.
月
omusubi?
月
ew gross
Anno
Mermaids in Japanese folklore tend to have all sorts of weird qualities like that. They always seem to be associated with stuff like immortality or love powers.
Mermaids are kind of assholes. Though this kind of punishment came from eating their scales which I doubt were removed in a polite way. So maybe it's still just.
She plays one of the main characters from one of the Dangan Ronpa games. And also a bunch of characters from various shows. Though it's fairly distributed between male and female roles.
Another VRMMO series. There was a bit of a surge of these around the time SAO came out. I wonder inf the video game exploration of VR recently is bringing them back.
it's 2am i have to get ready for work i'll be putting one of these jobs away after next week though i'll have some more time then im working three at the moment though in addition to caretaking, but im still trying to keep anime time no biggie it's fine
Yeah neither of them are particular wise to the dangers!
Anno
You always know if in these kinds of series. If there's something unique and rare there's a chance to get. The MC will always get it.
Anno
I guess this game, like any real-life game that calls itself Endless or Infinite or some kind of title like that, tries to live up to its Infinite name. Though it's got the advantage of being entirely fictional and so can be as ridiculous a game as it can imagine.
Well an MMO that can accurately simulate NPC death and the effect it has on the world is a neat concept. There's a lot of weird hoops they have to jump through to justify stuff though.
Anno
Man that is a lot of bu- ... Okay that's not the weapon I was expecting to see here.
and why id he doing high level quests just starting out anyway
Anno
I'm guessing running into the Cleric girl is a rare occurance he got with his MC Plot Convenience Powers. And then being told the NPCs can die if you don't do their quest made him go HIIRO mode.
Anno
Is that supposed to be his catchphrase or something. Couldn't have thought up something cooler than "That leaves a bad taste in my mouth"?
Yeah, I like the other VRMMO anime a lot better. This seems like shounen rather than like internet culture anime
Anno
It's one of those LN series that probably sells really well because it's a straight-up unironic power trip. Power trips can get really tiresome fast if they're not at least a bit tongue-in-cheek.
Anno
>A girl born of his body, heart, and soul He must have an interesting soul to manifest as a girl.
well, he's a teenage boy so he wants a girlfriend that's normal
Anno
Hanako-san was definitely the highlight of the night. Though I did like Majutsuhi since it's an earnest fantasy series. This one is whatever. I can watch it and it'll be fine but it's not more than that.
yes monster hunter's expansion came out and we were playing
and he was mean to me earlier today and then suddenly nice and wanted to play monster hunter and he talked shit about how i die all the time and he died more than i did and he was getting frustrated that's when I was most inattentive, trying hard to kill the monster that he was getting frustarted over so he wouldn't get mad
Anno
Yeah I know. I'll be getting into that over the weekend. I've been looking forward to it.
Anno
>>791506 Wow, you really work hard, hah hah. He needs to get good and own his mistakes.
