Re: Mahoromatic

How did I know he was going to use a Food Wars clip before the cutaway? I've never even seen that show, and yet it's still the first thing that pops into mind when mentioning over the top reactions to food in anime.

The Time of Dragons (D&D history)

Part 1: https://youtu.be/X9TzvK___rI Oh hey, didn't know something like this was coming. Neat! With regards to the material presented in the first part, I find it interesting that every work of speculative fiction I've come across that wouldn't logically have chess, will still have a chess equivalen...

Re: Trigun

Well as we've finally covered a new episode it's time to resurrect this thread. This is the episode that really starts to show how impossibly skilled Vash is. Sure, his ability to dodge around and mess with the baddies ability to fight back while putting on a goofy performance was impressive, but th...

Re: A Look at Terminal Provocation

Seems like actually removing the air would be a massive breach of safety protocols. But then this is the Holodeck we're talking about, sooooo...

Re: Should RPG's Include Non-Binary Options? Part 2 KOTOR Remake

Eh, like others have said it all really depends. If it is a previously established character that isn't non-binary, then it's probably best to stick to what's been established unless you're specifically messing with things for reasons. But there's no reason not to include it as a choice if you think...

Re: Genderbending and Raceswaping In Media

It should be noted that gender and race bending can be used as tools for specific purposes without just trying to be "woke". If you change those aspects you at the same time change several base assumptions bring towards that character, even if nothing else is changed, and this may be something an ad...

There's some crappy stuff here, but again, only one is illegally bad as far as I can tell, so Guy Game.

Re: So what video games are you playing?

Ys 9: Monstrum Nox. Been a fan of the series for a while, and while I'd prefer a return to the style of Napishtim/Felgana/Origins, I'm still having fun with this one. And I can certainly appreciate that by this point Adol as been through so many adventures that absolutely nothing about being shot wi...

Re: Friday Poll #019 - Worst Game Group C

Well of the ones I know/care about it's tempting to vote for Other M. Seriously, there were just so many things wrong with the gameplay and story of that game. But looking at it objectively, I don't recall it being a buggy mess like some of the others, just bad. As well, only one of the games on tha...

Re: Merlin Miniseries

I'm pretty sure I vaguely remember this one from long, long ago when it first aired. I... think I liked it? But then it has been a long time, and I certainly don't remember everything. Didn't remember that cringey Chinese-stereotype joke, for one thing. Though I believe I do remember that there is a...
