A cute ending for Kimi ni Todoke...and Pin was just Pin again. :p

Ooooh, can't wait to watch it :happy:

Watched Kowarekake no Orgel last night, an dōjin OVA with a story similar to Chobits! Animation/artwork was definitely above par for a self-published OVA; nicely detailed, fluid and vibrant (the backdrops are just awesome). However, the character development/human emotion within is what makes this shine and recently, a side-story has been announced; which I'm looking forward to now :D

And finished Sora no Woto just now. I was expecting the "moe" characters to be overpowering after watching the first few episodes but as I went through, it turned out to be a really nice series about friendship, music and war, with a hint of mecha. The soundtrack by Michiru Oshima was superb (Y) :yes:

RapeLay is not that bad, there are some worse things on TV.

The funny thing is Japan has one of the lowest rates of rape in the world (1.9 per 100,000). The CNN report paints the pornographic game as if it might cause people to go out and do such horrible acts in real life. The woman's rights group needs to learn about the Streisand effect.

Nothing is more anti intellectual than a group tries to control what other people regulate the morality of artwork.

It's just hit me that they'll have to ban Evangelion and Code Geass in the UK after the 6th and many many more if upskirts and deemed illegal.

Depends if they will re-evaluate existing anime under the new law, Evangelion 2.0 will be screened in May at London.

I found an amazing anime streaming site. It streams in 480p and 720p. Enjoy: http://www.animedreaming.com/

Why don't you just keep your stuff and Truecrypt an external hard drive? It's such a waste to delete hundreds of hours worth of stuff you painstakingly searched for.

Well, well. Look who was one of the writers behind Ghost in the Shell 2nd GiG: http://myanimelist.n.../Okamura_Tensai

He also was one of the writers for Cowboy Bebop, the creator of the Darker than Black manga, Samurai Champloo and one episode of Ouran High School Host Club. He also one of the key animators of the Ghost in the Shell and was behind some of the episodes of an interesting romantic comedy that had quite a successful run from 1988 to 1992 called Yawara! I can't find any completed subs or translated manga. v_v

I just realized that the most popular Japanese animation manga and anime in the West side of the world are greatly influenced by a select group of people, such as Kenji Kamiyama (Ghost in the Shell, Higashi no Eden, Serei no Moribito).

    • 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

      By +InsaneNutter · Posted

      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/
    • Microsoft is bringing big performance improvements to OneDrive on Mac

      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.
