KoldPT posted:there isn't a single gundam show i'd recommend without caveats except MAYBE 0079 movies I thought Turn A Gundam has pretty universal appeal, but you do have a point. I think a lot of it is due to age though, Mobile Suit Gundam holds up surprisingly well, but it's still just outright pretty creaky.

As I get older this is increasingly my issue, though I have a love of melodrama regardless of the medium. There are a lot of things out there that we don't get here, (Slice of life, sports, etc.) that are a lot less formulaic then the usual imports. A good way to figure out if you might like it is to look at the eyes and facial features. If the people actually look Japanese (if they're supposed to BE Japanese that is), and realistic, it's a pretty good bet that it will veer away from the "Moe" poo poo that drives many folks up the wall.

Do we think Obama will be more or less visible in his post-presidential life than W currently is? He's going to be 55 when he leaves office, which should give us at least ~30 solid years of trollbama to endure/bask in.

The chicken just posted the real kicker that'll probably get a few of y'all pissed. A judge encouraged it as a way to raise revenue. Also Justice Obama has a nice ring to it.
