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

Haha, I find it funny that you point out the hentai scenes. I'll take a look at both Tsukihime and F/S N visual novels then.

Is this this one? http://myanimelist.net/manga/3649/Fate/zero

The F/S N manga seems to be still publishing?

ah the darkside of the interwebs look more like a sunny pasture to me now.

The worst page I ever saw was an entry on Encyclopedia Dramatica. After scrolling 3/4 through the post, I wanted to puke, bleach my eyes and rock myself to and fro while wishing I never saw the dark side of humanity.

If that was the worst I saw, I cannot fathom the darkest depths of the series of tubes. *shivers*

I watched Wonderful Days. It's a Korean anime with great CGI and shares many themes with cyberpunk anime such as Appleseed: Ex Machina and others. It deserves its own spotlight since it has a distinct style that sets it apart from other popular CGI movies. However, that's where the compliments end. The characters are nothing to write about and will be forgotten by the end. I can't help but mention that the distinct Korean taste for tragedy is splattered together onto a canvas and summed up with some opera singining by the producers while they do a little dance and then shout "Voila! Here's our conclusion", while you stand there amazed at how awfully predictable the plot (when there's not much substance to begin with) is and mouth agape at how anime concludes itself as an action anime meant for the theaters. No originality, no nothing.

This anime iis just a showcase for CGI and cumulonimbus clouds with a cyberpunk theme and an absolutely random love triangle mixed in for good measure. At least it shows the power of Korean animation studios (Tin House in this case)...

I was ready to give this anime a must watch series but it collapsed half way through.

6/10

Note: I laughed at the absurdity of me watching a one minute long scene where all the characters are moving in slow motion with tears coming out of their eyes while floating in zero gravity and they're all looking at each other in amazement/pain while an opera singer's voice projects as background music.

done Berserk ... i think, the full show is 25 episodes right?

Awesome show. Although im not sure where the first episode fits in...

Read the manga. It's still an ongoing story. That's why you might have felt that the ending left way too many loose ends.

The anime only covers volume 3 to 13 out of the 35 volumes that have currently been published. It's a great read.

Watched CENCOROLL and I was expecting a full length movie to be honest yet I enjoyed it despite being short. You get thrown right into the action from the start :)

It oddly reminded me of FLCL, pretty impressive the way Cenco transforms into pretty much anything (as well eating junk all the time :p) and major props to Atsuya Uki for animating/directing it on his own (Y)

Radish?

Man what the hell you guys do as for job, I mean I work 8 hour/day and I still don't have enough time to watch maybe couple of episodes per day (that's a big maybe).

College student (engineering major, double minoring as well).

6 hours sleep + 9 hours of activity and classes + 2 hour workout + 2 hour homework/study = 5 hours of doing anything I want (which includes more studying if I need it).

I love having a spread apart schedule.

Junior year. (3/4). However, I'm much younger than everyone else in my year.

Anyways, let's get back on topic.

Hey, Radish, you had an awesome chart on your blog:

    • Dragon's Dogma 2: Dark Arisen expansion to bring snowy region, new updates also coming

      2 was a fun game but felt a bit shallow, like not enough there. I hope this expansion fixes that.
    • Should Microsoft be forced to stop promoting Edge over other browsers?

      By cleverclogs · Posted

      I haven't paid for windows since windows 8. So I guess I would be happy to pay for a new version if it meant seeing fewer adverts (none) or product pushes. But that applies to _any_ service or OS.

    • Save 35% on Sony's SS-CS5M2 3-way high-res bookshelf speakers

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Save 35% on Sony's SS-CS5M2 3-way high-res bookshelf speakers by Taras Buria Sony is currently offering a big discount on its SS-CS5M2 bookshelf speaker, saving you 35% on a set of high-quality audio equipment. The SS-CS5M2 is a passive 3-way bookshelf speaker with a 5.12-inch woofer, a 25 mm soft-dome tweeter, and a 19 mm super tweeter. This design allows different drivers to handle different parts of the sound spectrum for a clearer, more detailed audio when watching movies or listening to music. The compact cabinet size allows you to place these speakers on shelves, desks, or stands, making them a practical choice for apartments, bedrooms, and small living rooms. Despite its compact size, the SS-CS5M2 delivers up to 100 W of power. Note that since the speakers are passive, you will need an amplifier to drive them. However, if you do, you can use them for high-resolution music, thanks to a claimed frequency response of 53 Hz - 50 kHz. It is able to extend so far high in the spectrum as a result of those super tweeters. While they will work with most amplifiers and AV receivers, Sony says this pair is a perfect match for its AV receivers, such as STRDH190, 590, 790, or 1000.

    • EU Commission explains why Siri AI isn't launching in the EU, and Apple is to blame

      By AltecXP · Posted

      So they somehow expect Apple to easily make it so that if I install say DeepSeek that DS can then handle all the tasks that Siri would be doing while integrated in the OS? That sounds like just rediculous.
