The Astros are in the playoffs.
They are only a wild card, so they have a long long way to go. Still, the last time they made it to the playoffs was a decade ago and this is their first winning season in quite some time, so I am happy for them.
Thank yoooooou that two steps forward, one step back thing is something I've totally noticed I'm glad you put it into words.
No problem, as you could probably tell from that last post, it is something that has been bugging me for a while too.
Given…
If I have a problem with the Pokemon series today, it is Game Freak's "two steps forward, one step back" approach to the games. Back in the day that took the form of flipflopping between animated and non-animated sprites. Today I think you mostly se…
We may never really see a breakdown of the results.
That said, Sakurai did publish the results of earlier Japan-only polls that were done before the development of some of the other Smash games, so I guess it is possible.
Honestly, it does not matter to me how bad people think a person is, making fun of their physical appearance is just uncalled for.
If we want people to not judge others based on what they look like, I think we should just quit making these types of…
I once again tried and failed to do a write up for my choices. I may try again later if I can learn how to be more laconic.
The only change from the last thread was replacing Majora's Mask with Majora's Mask 3D. I played through the remake a whil…
I think the first version of this thread was specifically for not-commentary, but whatever.
Honestly, I am all for people talking about the reasons behind their choices. I just did not do that myself in the original thread because I could not come …
I saw these 3DS themes in a video and thought they were just mockups somebody made, but apparently they actually exist, weird...

I know their chances of coming to North America are extremely low, but I can dream, I guess.
iyashikei and slice of life aren't actually the same thing though
slice of life is a genre, iyashikei is more like an aesthetic or mode.
Ah, okay, I think that makes sense. Sorry for messing that up, I am not really an expert on slice of life or med…
actually that reminded me, not a show i'd recommend to Sredni but i really liked the attention to detail on the British scenes in Kiniro Mosaic
they did their homework, it was very convincing visually
Did you ever see this article? It talks about …
I have heard really good things about that show. That is one of those things.
I like it a lot. That said, I am a bit hesitant to recommend it to you, since it seems like we have pretty different tastes in anime and I can see how people would find it…
also i guess wrt "media that pretends to be the literal opposite of what it is", that is a charge you could reasonably level at Madoka
however i think you might be misled only as far as the end of the theme song, you'd have to be pretty unobservant…
I liked the time-travel concept and dark atmosphere of MM, but parts of it annoyed me greatly. If the remake is easier then perhaps I should try it sometime.
It seems to me like most of the changes from the original version were to make things a bi…
I just finished Majora's Mask 3D and wow, that game is really good. I am not a huge fan of all of the stuff that was added to make the game easier (moving the stone mask's location really messed with my memory, haha), but the improvements to the sav…
FMA was *amazing*, seriously one of the best anime i've seen
Brotherhood was different enough from the original that i don't consider them interchangeable, and if a third FMA show was sufficiently different and good i'd probably watch that too
if…
