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:

    • Microsoft explains how it made Teams so much faster in 2026

      I just started using Teams (and “New” Oiutlook) at work (instead of Slack) and both are truly abysmal pieces of software.

    • Phone Dilemma

      If you are willing to go to approx $200, then as mentioned in your other thread I think a refurbished Pixel 8 will be a great deal that will last you for years. I recently recommended that to someone at work, he was on a strict £200 budget, which got him an excellent conditioned refurbished Pixel 8 here. He's since told me its the best phone he's ever had and feels its a massive upgrade over his old Samsung A series device. I don't know the sites which deal in refurbished devices in the US, however I’m sure you will have some options like we do here. Failing that Ebay is also quite good in my experience. If you wanted something a bit cheaper, then you could maybe go for an older Pixel 7, these will still get security updates until the end of 2027. Even after that you have good third party OS support from LineageOS. It doesn't have to be a Pixel though, you can buy many older devices for a good deal that would be better than a new $100 phone and flash LineageOS to them: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/

      I don't use one drive, but then I don't use any cloud storage, not even Icloud on my mac. If I did use cloud storage, then I would not use One drive, not because there is anything wrong with it, but because I can use Icloud. The only reason I see to use one drive is if your job requires you to have access to it

      Not built in, which is not a bad thing. There are ways of adding cloud storage to it, Dropbox is the most well know that also have a client for Linux, but there are others.
