I'm all for Sengoku Nadeko. :p

I forgot Hanekawa :p

Finished Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu - Purezza, I LOL'ed when Akiho exploded with power against Gentou :laugh:

But kind of a poor episode overall with just fanservice, it should have ended with the idol arc :/ Though I'm guessing a 3rd season is on the horizon with marriage and possibly Shiina getting more involved (Y)

Radish?

This is going to immensely fail but I did laugh when she dropped on the guys head at the chemistry lab :laugh:

Time to catch up with FMA: Brotherhood ....

Radish?

I think the reason it'll fail because so many people have only seen the Anim? movie and not the other two live action movies yes i knew about the one from the 80's but not the second one.

I agree, I've seen the 1983 film but not the 1997 film. There is also a 5 part Japanese drama adaptation, which I'm hunting for now.

Are those recommendable films? So far I've only watched the anime :p

Finished first season of Darker than Black. IMO, ending was a bit weak.

FMA:Brotherhood is better in terms of story progression and appropriateness of comic relief.

Speaking of which, FMA: Brotherhood is by far the best easy going action/fantasy/drama anime of 2009.

After all, it is the end of 2009, one gotta name his/her favorites!! :)

I also tried a few animes (first episode only),

Canaan - WANT. Impression I got was modern 007 except with female characters and superpowers. Good animation.

Sekirei - Stupid. I can watch this, but would I loose brain cells if I continue? That's the golden question.

Samurai Deeper Kyo - Not sure. It might be good, the first episode did not spark much interest. Voice acting in both languages is bad.

Samurai 7 - No. What I seen in the first 30 seconds was enough to convince me that I would never want to watch this.

Also,

Can I has link to wallpaper? Plz.

Here you are.

Regarding Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, is it going to end when the manga finally ends or are "they" going to milk the franchise until its run dry?

Yes they will milk it till the new caw comes along mainly because there's plenty of yaoifan girls who will drink it up even if it is stale.

Also i have just been waiting about 20 minutes for 1 image to load.

What makes you think that? They're following the manga, meaning they'll end the anime the same way the manga ends.

On a side note: I can't wait for the Gundam Unicorn OVA. It has this classic anime look all over it which is a big plus if you ask me :D

I'm using the term in a negative sense because I greatly dislike the path that some mangakas, producers and authors take. They reuse the same formula over and over again and viewers are willing to watch it because they don't mind it all. Bleach, Beck, D.Gray Man and others suffer from this problem and the plot twists all have similar themes, whether it be romance, drama that was introduced a few volumes/episodes earlier or just cliffhanger "will the hero survive this battle?!" scenario. I'm not fine with producers "milking" it and throwing away the satisfaction of a good, memorable ending.

    • [Official] Doctor Who Thread

      By _neutrino · Posted

      Everything I have read is that the BBC is still Pro Doctor Who but wants a solid plan before they let anyone else try to do it. Which is fair.
    • EU Commission explains why Siri AI isn't launching in the EU, and Apple is to blame

      By +Good Bot, Bad Bot · Posted

      I totally agree no one should trust governments AND big tech companies that have near monopolies in certain market segments. The difference is of course citizens at least have some say in government. Yes, requiring Apple to open up Sirsi to other AI backends is in the interest of EU customers and certainly "opens" up the platform a crack. What are you saying? I wish the US would regulate tech companies more here and even break them up in some cases. Granted trusting the government to do it right is a crap shot at best but what is the alternative? To allow a few tech companies to continue to run everything and just print money? It's crazy to me for example that in most of the world 99% of communications go thru Facebook servers via WhatsApp. What kind of dystopian world are we living in?
    • Should Microsoft be forced to stop promoting Edge over other browsers?

      By _neutrino · Posted

      You can.. make sure you have ADB tools on whatever OS you are running, plug your phone into your PC give it approval to talk to the phone then run this command. adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.android.chrome So long as you leave Android Webview untouched it wont break anything on your Phone to do this. I have been using exclusively Firefox mobile since it was released.
    • Popular Windows 11 file manager Files gets improved tags, layouts, and new OneDrive icon

      By +TRS-80 · Posted

      If it ain't broke, don't fix it. One Commander Free also available in the Store has been my goto Files Manager for years. It does what I need at a more than reasonable speed. I do occasionally use Files Explorer just because it is there and does what I need without any problems when I use it.
    • Microsoft is bringing big performance improvements to OneDrive on Mac

      By sphbecker · Posted

      I think you missed his point. He wasn't saying that cloud storage isn't possible on GNU/Linux, clearly it is. He was pointing out that you are commenting about your dislike of Windows on an article about OneDrive (not Windows) for Mac (also not Windows). Its about as off topic as coming to an article about Sony improving something on the PlayStation and saying that you hate Sony TVs and prefer LG.
