That is crazy awesome. The editor is half the reason I get Blizzard games, because neat and quirky stuff like that gets made.

I knew the editor was really flexible, but I didn't know it was THAT flexible.

Man this show is so good.

Not Equal was freakin action packed.

¥€$ had a nice dose of comedy with the robo-dogs, plus a really eerie ending which probably ties into the laughing man story.

Machines Desirantes works on a couple levels. The tachikomas crack me up, then the Major makes the same mistake as Dave and Frank in 2001! Or maybe this is part of the Major's plan I haven't finished the episode yet. Ah yes, just as planned.

Fuck yes, awesome boxing scene? This show has a little bit of everything.

Kinda funny how computers make that "dot matrix printer" sound when text scrolls on the screen :P

I really need to stop reading TV Tropes while I watch something for the first time. I had a decent twist on Angel Beats semi-spoiled by 'reading ahead', so to speak. Angel Beats is a good series too so far, at least, and I plan on sticking with it.

Speaking of Kara no Kyoukai, I'm almost done translating the third part (of the books). Anyone willing to read through them and shove my typo mistakes in my face as well as give some other stylistic suggestions (how I translated certain parts, etc.)?

Gainax's next work: Panty & Stockings with Garterbelt. Sounds like it's going to feature the GL staff.

Implications from the title aside, this could be something to look forward to.

Edit: I'll give it a go Dark Steel if you'd like. I'm sure Spec, blkmage and others will chime in too for it.

That title is in a quantum superposition where it is simultaneously the worst and the best title I've heard recently. We'll see how it goes, but the GL staff gives it some promise.

Cool beans. If I'm not lazy, I should have it done and uploaded to Google Docs by tomorrow.

Actually, it was always possible for you to do this yourself... it's actually scarily easy to change it to a file format that won't murder your PC.

The story centers around a teen-celebrity-like blond-haired girl named Panty and a black-haired Goth Loli girl named Stocking. The two are angels sent from the heavens to battle the "Ghosts" on Earth.


Man... this could go so many ways... on the one hand it's Gainax... but dude.

No actually I know exactly how it will go... it's called "Gainaxing" for a reason of course. Damnit.

Alright, fuck it, here's my translation of Kara no Kyoukai Volume I (Parts 1-3).

A few caveats:

- I am not a prose writer. I make no claims about the proficiency of my prose, nor my mastery of the Japanese language (which is far from perfect). If you see a problem with one or the other, don't hesitate to tell me.

- While I'm a Type-Moon fan, I'm not someone who browses through the Type-Moon wiki or fuyuki a lot. This means a lot of the terms used by the community are unknown to me, and I may use my own translations of them. It remains to be seen whether this is alright or not. On the other hand, if I spot something in the text that references some occult thingamabob in real life, I try to at least research that to see if I'm translating the right thing. Which means I'm planning to read a lot of books on the Buddhist and Taoist belief systems/philosophies in preparation for Paradox Spiral.

- Yes, I know, Part I is kind of confusing. I did my best. Even Nasu wanted to rewrite it for the movie.

I have been watching a bit of Michiko e Hatchin lately and this is really one of the shows that begs the question "Why was this never licensed in the West?"

I really think it would have done well on Adult Swim! (And the exposure from that might have convinced me to check it out sooner to boot).

More Panty & Stocking info.

Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt full info:

-Panty is a bitchy and aggressive blonde that dresses like a pop diva, Stocking dresses in black gothloli clothes but is actually pretty sweet most of the time. Garterbelt is Panty & Stocking's boss: God, lord of all creation.
-Genre: Action/Comedy/Action/Action/Action/Action
-The show is going to be primarily action and that it is going to be full of violence so brutal that will make people wonder how Gainax is going to get away with showing it in TV.
-Dead Leaves-like dirty jokes and madness in every episode.

Is it going to be this depressing all the way through? Might need to break it up with something else in that case.

Hey, wait a minute, you're not going to watch GitS: SAC 2nd GIG?

I mean, Twelve Kingdoms is an EXCELLENT series, but you should probably keep going with GitS.

As for whether it's depressing...no, but it will go down some darker places before you start seeing light. How many episodes in are you? Of course, one theme of the series is certainly human failings.

I've actually been talking with him a few times, via pm. He actually apologized for closing the anime thread the way he did! He was told to do it by tube as well, so it's not like he did it out of his own volition.

Every time someone talks about Keiki I have to laugh a little, because it sounds like they are talking about baked goods. Mmmmm, cakey.

Also, why did nobody recognize Yoko after they landed in not-China? She looked the same to me.

And why did her parents think she was dyeing her hair? Did they not know their own daughter's natural hair color? IIRC it was red in the flashback to when she was quite young. Did they think she had a bottle of l'Oreal in the womb with her?

This is a little too Fushigi Yuugi with the "friend" turning "evil" but I'm holding out hope they switch the formula up a little bit. I like that Yoko has already been disabused of her naivety.

Ok, I like this mouse guy. That probably means something horrible will happen to him.

Awesome, Yuka gets her comeuppance. Yes, you were "chosen" to live on a crappy farm!

Just watched Le Portrait de Petit Cossette.

It was a huge dollop of craziness from WTFland. I was not at all surprised that this was directed by Shinbo. The weird camera angles, the sudden cuts to inexplicable imagery that's just there to look cool; it's all here. I must admit I did not expect how graphic it would be.

Take away all the weird visuals though, and it's a very simple story (not that that's bad). Kajiura Yuki is in full force with the music here though, which I enjoyed.

If and when we get it back, can we agreed no more idiocy with posting shit that might get it closed again?

Ie, no lolis in compromising positions, no in-lining images that vaguely have nudity or would otherwise be hard to explain (spoiler tags at minimum, if not even just a link instead of img tags), etc

It's already been established we're second class citizens, don't give them an excuse, 'cause we're not going to get the thread back one more time.

Oh, so he apologized.

So when is he going to respond to my reasonable PM and give me an apology and an unjail for scapegoating me? When is he going to apologize for the constant shitting he does on Japan and anime and anime fans?

Oh wait no he's just passing the buck. When a guy says he's looking for any excuse to close the thread, and then says someone else made him do it, excuse me for being skeptical.

BL to be honest, you're actually pretty lucky Tube didn't see that OP first otherwise you would likely have been banned.

If you'd posted those images in any other thread you would have most likely gotten a jailing as well. We were all pretty stupid not to see those and think, oh wait maybe someone like a mod might think this isn't ok, because they really weren't.

Really it's our fault as well that you got jailed, so for my part I'm sorry.
