Huh?...I thought that was just his shikai?

I'm pretty sure that is his bankai. His shikai just does the wind attack and brings out both swords. His bankai requires him to play games with the enemy, but it is a clean bankai. The more his move could hurt him, the more powerful his attack will be. That's why at the end, he removed his white robe, wearing all black, and said "black".

Rewatched "Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex 2nd Gig - Individual Eleven" today but this time at 1080p. It felt like I was watching it for the first time. I had also totally forgotten about the bible references at the end because it's been too long since I had watched it. Was very smartly done by Production I.G. the way they used those references. Several apples around Motoko and Kuze who were about to start new life on the net with the refugees (Adam and Eve). And later Motoko seeing Kuze had taken a bit of his apple (The forbidden fruit/apple). Batou who tried to free Motoko out of all of the debris with a cross (Jesus).

According to the wiki his bankai form is yet to be revealed though :blink:

Now finished Toradora! and Mushishi.

Mushishi was stunning, Ginko is ridiculously cool. The artwork and soundtrack completely just engrossed me, and I finished the whole series in a matter of days.

Toradora! was very,very funny. That was one big plus point for the series. Looking it over it seemed different to other romance animes which was also quite refreshing.

Guess real life has taken priority for him.

Moving along .... Need to catch up with some anime, J-dramas and StarCraft II have been taking up most of my time lately :p

Bleach is the only exception to this ;)

I'm pretty sure that was just his shikai too because I dont remember it being mentioned as bankai in the manga

I have to catch up with the anime when I get the time

I could be wrong, but I thought these fights are what show us their bankais. Hard to say, but wiki says it is still unknown as well... bleach needs to clear this up for me or us :p

Is neon genesis evangelion good?

Yep. Though I recommend watching the new film remakes as opposed to the original series for a newcomer to NGE, easier to understand and Shinji won't annoy the **** out of you :p

Is neon genesis evangelion good?

Both the series and the rebuilds are good IMO. But just what RadishTM said; If you're a newbie to NGE then you should definitely start with the rebuilds.

    • "and pull old flight details from your email during back-and-forth conversations" The Siri I've become to know and trust. I've always wanted to pull info on old flights. /s
    • Apple unveils Siri AI, a "reimagined" version of SIri by David Uzondu Image via Apple Today, at the opening keynote of Apple's annual World Wide Developers Conference (WWDC), the company announced Siri AI, a "reimagined version" of its voice assistant that runs on Apple Intelligence. Siri AI helps you do things like draft messages, edit photos, and pull old flight details from your email during back-and-forth conversations. You can access Siri AI through several methods, depending on the device. While "Hey Siri" remains active, iPhone users can also press the side button, swipe down from the Dynamic Island, or use a system-wide context menu on Mac to analyze on-screen text. Image via Apple If you ever need to go back and check previous interactions, you can open the dedicated Siri app to view your entire conversation history. This application privately syncs your data using iCloud, leveraging local Foundational Models alongside Apple's secure Private Cloud Compute servers to keep user data inaccessible to outsiders. On the iPhone, Apple built the assistant into the Camera app, bringing Visual Intelligence to help you split bills or count calories. This feature also expands to the iPad and Mac, letting users use screenshots or shortcuts to analyze images, while Apple Vision Pro users can ask questions about objects in their physical room. Other things to know about Siri AI include systemwide dictation that automatically handles punctuation and formatting, customizable voice speeds, and a spatial 3D interface built for Apple Vision Pro. Apple also added Smart Stack suggestions on the Apple Watch to help you continue recent conversations directly from your wrist. The road to Siri AI was quite bumpy for Apple, which initially promised these capabilities at WWDC 2024 when the Cupertino tech giant debuted Apple Intelligence. Apple later turned to Google, signing a $1 billion annual deal to use Gemini models instead of relying solely on its own in-house systems. However, this deal came only after consumers sued Apple because features Apple promised "did not exist at the time, do not exist now, and will not exist for two or more years." Siri AI is available for developer testing on iOS 27, iPadOS 27, macOS 27, and visionOS 27.
    • Real shame the 16 GB versions are crazy more expensive than this.
    • Making me care less about LibreOffice with every tantrum they throw.
    • And within the EU all this Siri AI stuff will probably work around 2030 and the IPhone 25 🤣
