yeah makes it perfect for reading Dujinshi

Which monitor is it? I spoiled myself by getting a 17'' 1920x1200 laptop earlier last year and can't stand any lower resolution. :p

That promo makes me realize how creepy things can get. This is what I learnt from the promo: BLOOMERS! GIRLS WITH BIG GUNS! YAAAAY! PROPELLERS!

Nothing's creepier than trying to westernize an oriental art. It's like western power yoga.

Currently watching this at the moment. Hard to come by anime like Over Drive, it's good so far :D

Radish?

:D It's already on my playlist. It's the next thing I'm watching after finishing the xxxholic OVA.

I have Over Drive, Nasu and a few other sports anime lined up for me to read and watch before I run my half marathons this coming spring. :D

Cool, recommend me some sports anime? :) I've got some in my MAL lined up, like Hajime no Ippo and Slam Dunk.

I suggest reading Slam Dunk if you don't like the dated animation. You have basically named all the good sports anime right there. ALL the gems of the sports sub genre are manga. I would recommend Touch, H2 and Ping Pong (amazing Seinen manga).

The rest of the sub genre is full of drama and teenage conflicts. If you do think that's your cup of tea, then check out D-ash.

I'm actually going to be watching Yu Yu Hakusho (the arc in which Yusuke goes under Genkai's training) and GTO (and prequels when Eikichi was a badass delinquent) too for motivation since there isn't any other anime or manga that has that tone. I have yet to come across another anime or manga that can beat Over Drive when it comes to sports.

The manga is written by the same author of Black and White, which led to the visual masterpiece, Tekkon Kinkreet.

Might have a look-see then as I loved watching Tekkonkinkreet on the big screen.

Yeah but finding wallpapers for isn't so great so i end up using dujin pages and photobook pictures.

Have you checked out animepaper.net? It's the best user made wallpaper resource. You have to be a contributor to its forums to download though.

Here's where I get my wallpapers. >:D

NSFW: http://nik.bot.nu/ (There's plenty of ecchi/hentai wallpaper)

It scrapes 4chan wallpapers and other resources that I never figured out. You can search by resolution size, keyword and almost every other method out there. I hope it's useful.

Soul Eater is quite possibly the best Shounen anime series I've come across since Eureka Seven. Think of Bleach (demon souls, crazy swords) and every successful aspect of a shounen series from curvacious women to slapstick comedy to cat girls. The high production quality and bland J-pop/rock and attempt at English/Japanese slang scream high quality shounen.

It's a must watch for all you Bleach watchers and readers!

it's not like that most of the time but it does remind me of yee old geocities sites that had nothing but gifs on them.

They could just leave the background wallpaper as black or white instead of stars. :p

    • Playground Games confirms Forza Horizon 6 save wipe bug

      By RejZoR · Posted

      Wow, imagine you dump hundreds of hours into completing things and unlocking stuff and you lose it all. Back in the day when cheats were built into games, you could at least unlock things again that way without spending hundreds of hours again. But those days are long gone for some reason as no one builds cheats into games anymore. So it's even more painful that studio that's on its 6th installment **** it up so badly.
    • Spotify finally removes the disco ball app icon in the latest update

      By Ivan Jenic · Posted

      Spotify finally removes the disco ball app icon in the latest update by Ivan Jenic Image: Spotify Spotify has just released an update that removes its now infamous disco ball icon. The update reverts the app icon to the familiar flat green logo after weeks of mixed reactions online. The icon arrived on May 13 as part of the company's 20th anniversary celebration and was always intended to be temporary, though Spotify only confirmed that after the backlash started. The disco ball took the internet by storm, as the reception was split. A vocal group of users called it ugly and disorienting, with some iOS users noting that the 3D glowing effect made the app look like it was stuck mid-update. On the other end, the icon picked up a following of its own. Its retro, three-dimensional look immediately stood out against the flat, minimalist aesthetic that has dominated app design for years. It even started a small movement, spawning what people started calling "discomorphism," a mashup of disco and skeuomorphism. Other brands started posting disco ball versions of their own logos, probably in an effort to ride the wave of memes that flooded the internet during late May. Spotify has had a turbulent relationship with its user base lately. Besides the disco ball icon, which certainly wasn't appreciated by everyone, the company has also received backlash for its willingness to include AI-generated music on its platform. On May 17, Spotify promised the old icon would return “in a few weeks.” And now it looks like that time has finally arrived. So, whether you liked the disco ball or it made you uncomfortable, it’s now gone for good. The next time you update the Spotify app on your phone, the old, flat-design icon will return.
