Yeah, the real super good exception is Space Brothers, which is about a guy who's brother becomes a JAXA astronaut, while he is an automotive engineer who's been promoted to his maximum level of incompetence.

It's good enough that an asteroid was named after the writer

so of course it stinks like a big turd and every scene is somebody yelling about their feeling called love

like a third of the series is about a bunch of goons pretending to be ninjas on the moon it's really embarrassing and anybody that recommended it in this thread should feel ashamed

it's one episode and the whole point is that they're otakus on the moon

finished the third craft book. definitely weaker than the first two, the plot felt like took way longer to get going.

also gladstone's style is starting to wear a little thin on me, his settings are great but i'm a little tired of faceless monstrous police officers and visual metaphor and constantly hearing about how terrible and awful the world is, so i think i'll take a break.

Every time SmokaDustbowl wants to trick you into watching some stupid loving trash and share his shame, his posting template goes like this: I am completely unashamed of smearing my face with the exported dung of Nipponese pornographers. I will defend this particular redolent pudding to the death because among the rectal sputum and undigested remnants of last week's yakkitori I found this one cool sci-fi thing that is on screen for all of 10 seconds out of dozens of hours. That one thing could be anything from "the bad guys blew up a nuke" to "a guy fell over." It doesn't matter. He has no taste and you should not engage with him except to tell him to crawl back to ADTRW.

It's... interesting. Most of the stuff being sold is cheap junk, but there are some people selling antiques and such that can be cool to look at. I was there looking for Christmas gift ideas. They have a farmer's market which i like to go to, and a food court with all manner of greasy ethnic foods

oh, sounds alright but probably not worth the trek then :)

i think this is the first time, in over sixteen hundred pages, in which someone has actually given into smokadustbowl's constant pleas to watch anime

i mean i know it's ghost in the shell and thus a bit different but still, this is the beginning of a success rate.
