The episode with Ramiel is actually quite excellent

Mainly because in order to defeat it they pull out a bolt action rifle that is literally powered by all the energy in Japan

See, this is why I want to see this show.

OK, there are other reasons, but that sounds really fun to watch.

SF_Sorrow

I marathoned NGE and EoE a couple of weeks ago, and I do think it is worth watching and respecting, if not necessarily liking (though I admit there are moments where I can sympathize with the characters).

Bunny

Yes.

Ignoring all the symbolism and the wacky ending, one reason to watch Eva is that it's a really good mecha show.

It's also an excellent deconstruction of a mecha show. But that doesn't stop it from being a really good mecha show.

i'm sure you meant that literally

like all of Japan has a blackout

but the first thing i thought of was millions of passerby raising their hands into the air and praying for a giant gun

SF_Sorrow

Oh, and the Angels are indeed pretty cool. The mythos surrounding them and the Evas I still don't know whether if I find it really fascinating or kinda silly

glennmagusharvey

as a tetrahedron it could have four attacks: fire, water, ground, and air

then as a d6 it adds ice and electricity attacks

then as a d8 it adds holy and darkness attacks

then as a d10 it adds a strong single-hit attack and a multi-hit attack

then as a d12 it adds a fixed-damage attack and an attack that does more damage the longer the battle goes on

then as a d20 it adds sleep, poison, mute, paralysis, confusion, slowed, blindness, and instant death attacks

glennmagusharvey

actually better yet

it has a shield whose elemental weakness keeps changing, that's represented by a d4

but then it has another d4 that deals attacks

then it adds a d6 that deals more attacks

then it adds a d8 that deals more attacks

and so on

so at the end of the battle you have a d4 (or better yet, a d10 that includes two faces of "physical") that changes weakness type, and then an additional 6 attack dice that all attack you

Safety: Life is a Maze seems interesting so far.

MacDuffy

if it rolls a 1, does it break down and die

glennmagusharvey

no because there are no 1's to roll mwahahahahaha

Tre

look who caved into his obsession again

glennmagusharvey

Obā-san

first time i've seen a 3d modeled rayman that looked decent

Tre

Burgundy Queen said:

Look, if you had one shot, or one opportunity

To seize everything you ever wanted. one moment

Would you capture it or just let it slip?

Yo



His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy

There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti

He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready to drop bombs,

But he keeps on forgetting what he wrote down,

The whole crowd goes so loud

He opens his mouth, but the words won't come out

He's choking how, everybody's joking now

The clock's run out, time's up, over, bloah!

Snap back to reality, Oh there goes gravity

Oh, there goes Rabbit, he choked

He's so mad, but he won't give up that

Easy, no

He won't have it, he knows his whole back's to these ropes

It don't matter, he's dope

He knows that but he's broke

He's so stagnant, he knows

When he goes back to his mobile home, that's when it's

Back to the lab again, yo

This whole rhapsody

He better go capture this moment and hope it don't pass him



[Hook:]

You better lose yourself in the music, the moment

You own it, you better never let it go

You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow

This opportunity comes once in a lifetime yo

You better lose yourself in the music, the moment

You own it, you better never let it go

You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow

This opportunity comes once in a lifetime yo

(You better)



The soul's escaping, through this hole that is gaping

This world is mine for the taking

Make me king, as we move toward a new world order

A normal life is boring, but superstardom's close to post mortem

It only grows harder, homie grows hotter

He blows. It's all over. These hoes is all on him

Coast to coast shows, he's known as the globetrotter

Lonely roads, God only knows

He's grown farther from home, he's no father

He goes home and barely knows his own daughter

But hold your nose 'cause here goes the cold water

His hoes don't want him no more, he's cold product

They moved on to the next schmoe who flows

He nose dove and sold nada

So the soap opera is told and unfolds

I suppose it's old partner but the beat goes on

Da da dum da dum da da



[Hook]



No more games, I'ma change what you call rage

Tear this motherfucking roof off like two dogs caged

I was playing in the beginning, the mood all changed

I've been chewed up and spat out and booed off stage

But I kept rhyming and stepped right into the next cypher

Best believe somebody's paying the pied piper

All the pain inside amplified by the fact

That I can't get by with my 9 to 5

And I can't provide the right type of life for my family

Cause man, these goddamn food stamps don't buy diapers

And it's no movie, there's no Mekhi Phifer, this is my life

And these times are so hard, and it's getting even harder

Trying to feed and water my seed, plus

Teeter totter caught up between being a father and a prima donna

Baby mama drama's screaming on and

Too much for me to wanna

Stay in one spot, another day of monotony

Has gotten me to the point, I'm like a snail

I've got to formulate a plot or I end up in jail or shot

Success is my only motherfucking option, failure's not

Mom, I love you, but this trailer's got to go

I cannot grow old in Salem's lot

So here I go it's my shot.

Feet, fail me not, this may be the only opportunity that I got



[Hook]

tell us your epiphany

It's in my sig.

Stifling your love for things that aren't harmful is stupid.

I say so because for the past month or so I've been kind of bashful about the fact that I have a kind of rabid (heh) love for a somewhat unpopular series of games, and combined with a kind of terrible experience with one of the games that I don't intend on repeating, I felt like I needed to distance myself.

Not anymore though ^_^

It's the lyrics to Eminem's "Lose Yourself" in Comic Sans.

I don't know why he decided to post that, however.

because there are few times where occaisonal spicing up of a bland situation with out-of-context rap lyrics is a bad idea.

oh :o I wondered about the comic sans; it made me think of Sweet Bro and Hella Jeff

[Verse 1: Juicy J]

I'm on them Xany bars my weed is medical

And I ain't had nothing to eat but some edibles

Drink alot of gin, in love with a stripper, Juicy J one crazy high ass nigga

Throwin money in the club bitches takin pictures

And we keep that Moët flowing like a Bar Mitzvah

In the bottle section bouncin on a leather couch

Money everywhere bouncin out the Louis pouch

I keep codeine in my cup with a Sprite mixed



[Hook: Juicy J]



[Verse 2: Juicy J]

50 bars in a party bag, swag

And some weed from Afghanistan, swag

I'm on footballs I hit the Superbowl

And I live in a liquor store

I'm a stop buying weed, I'm a make it grow

I'm a stop burning weed, I'm a make it smoke

I ain't no medical doctor but I am self prescribed

Ain't that nigga cooking up sushi but I got the eyes

Before I hit the plane I'm already in the sky

Two weeks later, I'm still in the sky

G6 jet make, them pussys wet

Have you ever snorted Xanax some trippy shit

This reminds me that I should watch Evangelion, if only for the giant exploding space monsters and everyone going crazy or being crazy. And End of Evangelion and the reboot, which sound hella wacky.

Actually, I have a lot of valid reasons to watch it even if I end up disliking it.

Well, I'm thinking about uploading it to Vimeo so we can all watch it together sometime.

Actually, what I personally find the best about NGE is the relationship Anno has with his fans, it's quite excellent

True, true - I say "kinda silly" cause for one thing, the full details of that mythos were only elaborated on by some third-party material that were only available in Japan at the time.

^That would be neato - this series is worth a rewatch from me anyways

Section42L

I'd be up for doing that. I have to admit I'm kind of curious about the series myself.

Miss Miko Mayonegg

*hugs and pets SF_Sorrow* ^_^ Are you doing well tonight?

Miss Miko Mayonegg

oooh~ another Anime Night? :3

Yep, but I'm probably not gonna show Eva until after I show The Big O and Samurai Champloo and possibly Tiger and Bunny.

Salix Babylonika

I'd be down for THE BIG O

because it's one of my favorite series.

Ooh, and somewhere down the line I want to stream the third Madoka movie to you guys, after it gets released on BD.

Pyridrym still needs to see the series. ^_^; I will get her caught up. Eventually.

I tried some Normal scoring in Embodiment of Scarlet Devil because I am a lame-o and I can get some rather nice high scores in the first four stages but stage 5 is where I gave up, because the bombs are timed to specific notes in the music, they are so precise, and there is some serious hitbox abuse on Sakuya's first pattern that is really dangerous. I am lame. Wow. On the bright side, I topped some old scores and also can get 130 mil + so whatevs.
