I also dislike anime that have extremely metrosexual guys such as Code Geass and Gundam SEED. They are so feminine that I cannot stand seeing them pose in awkward hip-to-the-side stances while proclaiming to defeat their enemies.

Now right there is a point we can agree on (Y)

also look up Pigeon Blood.

No, I'm afraid of your suggestions :no:

:p

also..

NGE = Giant mecha beating the crap out of aliens the Christianity-in-your-face parts and complete drug trip of a final episode is just to make you feel a little bit more intelligent

Code Geass = Roman General's wet dream

Gundam SEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEED = the other Gundam that girls like.

I've watched the first two episodes of Winter Sonata. Animation production, dialogue, music .... It's all executed perfectly (Y)

This is definitely going to pull at the heartstrings :pinch:

Radish?

Radish, by the way, knowing my taste in anime. Nodame Cantabile, will I like it?

I think you'll enjoy it. If you like classical music, it's a bonus (Y) Though I recommend seeing the live-action drama instead of the anime, mainly due to the actors.

Radish?

^Am I glad that I'm keeping my figurine collection at a minimum.

@Radish?: Is Kimi ni Todoke any good?

I wish I had more time in a day to watch anime. School isn't giving me any free time currently due to projects which need to be finished next week. There are loads of shows I still need to watch and there are also shows constantly being added to my "plan to watch" (I haven't updated this list on MyAnimeList in a long while).

The new bleach manga was sort of a let down. Yes, it was just pushing story forward, but the translation or just scripting in general was horrible. Everything felt generic and like it was supposed to be some horrible comedy bit. It just could have been done much better I think.

Naruto Shippuuden anime is out as well. Time to watch the saddest episode.

Hey masked, I was thinking, did you like Saikano? Just curious

I love it. If one looks past the simple boy-girl cutesy story, s/he can see a beautiful post apocalyptic story that grips one's heart and refuses to let go.

It's art, especially the narration, which made it stand out in my eyes. Teenagers forced to take on roles that they never asked for... I could relate to the guy too since I could easily place myself in his shoes if I ever was in a disastrous situation (minus the affair he has).

I gave it a 7/10 because it wasn't consistent through all its episodes. Sometimes, it felt a bit forced.

im sure i can name them all...

:o You must be quite fit if you swim through all of that stuff in your room everyday. :p

Also i think you may enjoy "Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha"

I'll take a look at in the coming weeks.

It looks like Shakagun no Shana meets Fate/Stay Night... *remembers the time I dropped F/S N because I couldn't stand the absolutely naive view the male protagonist had on his female knight... "SAAAYBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!, I'll protect you even though I am absolutely million times weaker than yoouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!"*

You know what's an anime that I'm not ashamed to say that I liked?

...

....

..... Kodocha.

The manga was fantastic (basically a much younger version of Kare Kano). It was very Shoujo at times but still felt refreshing and wasn't too outlandish. I have yet to finish the anime since it's so long.

errr the mistake you made with F/S Night is that you watched it the visual novel is a lot better.

Are the visual novels really that much better than the anime when it comes to TYPE-MOON? I really enjoyed Shingetsutan Tsukihime. The soundtrack was sublime and had a really eerie yet sexy female protagonist.

yes very much so also the visual novels have the adult scenes in them.

    • Windows 11's big performance boost is finally available for all

      By ikjadoon · Posted

      It is silly there is no simple way to check whether this profile has been activated. CFRs are normal, but trying to even hide the fact if it's on / off seems silly, especially for something so user-facing. Surely Microsoft is "proud" of their engineering efforts on this one and ought to display it somwhere in the GUI.

      Many Linux distros are not known for excellent battery life, so I'm not sure that is the best example. A more apt example may be Apple, but Apple's CPUs are simply far more efficient than Intel & AMD at single-threaded tasks like these, so "boosting" is not as power-hungry and less heat-inducing. Not to mention Apple will hardly engage P-cores for basic UI tasks; they use a pretty complicated QoS scheme to only activate P-cores for more serious workloads like HTML / JS execution or decompression or application launch. Microsoft is (smartly) doing it for launch, but also for UI tasks, which is the more nonsensical part: why ... do Windows 11's UIs need modern CPUs to boost? It should load so quickly that there's not even time for the CPU to boost.

      I've not seen any controlled testing and, judging by Microsoft's mentality, within a year, they'll have added so much more bloat, it'll undo any perceptible latency benefit and we'll have boosted the CPU clocks for nothing.

      It depends: heat soak is a thing. Initially on cold boot-up, the heatsinks & heatpipes are at ambient temp. After heatsinks & heatpipes warm up (through normal usage), they don't immediately cool to ambient temp when the load goes away. So their baseline is higher and the trigger point for fans is much less stress. Add a few more CPU spikes → it's too hot to stay at the same fan RPM → fans get triggered to start up up much sooner / get triggered to ramp much more quickly.
    • Euro-Office must default to ODF to be considered "genuinely European", LibreOffice argues

      By Danielx64 · Posted

      Can LibreOffice just shut up and worry about themselves and stop comparing themselves? Do we see Microsoft complaining about euro office?
