the lineup looks weak this year
SFV has been fine but UltraSF4 had the benefit of very good players a lot of revisions at that point
GG will probably be cool
and then, well,

Prince Arslan is really noble and stuff. His show reminds me of this fact each episode. It's cool because I'd forget if a week went by without a reminder.

ive never watched madoka because it got hyped up to me as this v subversive show, and then i was told it was not that, and instead of registering that it could be not that and maybe still good i just registered it as not to watch

I took Spanish in high school because we spoke it at my house already and I wasn't interested in the French or German classes that were taught. Tested out of Spanish I, coasted through Spanish II, then when it came time for college credit I waited until my last semester and tested out of those credits too.

It's probably a lot harder learning English than it is the other way around.

Am I the only person who had a cool Spanish teacher? Spanish 1 and 2 were easy and the standard fare. But 3 and 4 we had a really smart and funny lady who didn't tolerate bullshit, and we talked about all sorts of South American Countries, their history and culture, and even a bit about Spain. It helped that, while a native English speaker, she was completely fluent in Spanish and lived and studied in Spain for a period of time. She actually might have been my favorite high school teacher, thinking back on it. She was one of the few teachers I could think of who really cared about the students, and had asked me if I was doing okay when my family was going through rough times.

By now she would be retired though, so I hope she's happy :unsmith:

Not quite the same but my Japanese teacher was really cool, we talked about japanese boy bands a lot and hung out after class eating her daughter's girl scout cookies.

I watched the first three episodes, then had set it down, intending to come back, but never did. I really enjoyed the art and characters of the show, and most people seem to view the show positively at least, so I still want to give it a chance at some point.

Madoka Magika is really good, but I feel like the amount of hyperbole surrounding it hurts people looking to watch it for the first time. I think the only reason I enjoyed it as much as I did was complete ignorance.

I thought rebellion was good, but there were like 3 points where it should have ended ahead of where it did.

I watched the first three episodes as they aired then set it aside and came back to it later. It was good and I cried a bunch at various points but don't think I'll rewatch it ever and don't feel very motivated to watch the movies.

Having watched Rebellion I say leave it be. If you are satisfied with the story the show told the only thing the movie can do is drag that down, but if you want more the movie is always there.

It's a widely diversified country with a population greater than 1 billion. I do not recommend moving there.

I never really got into madoka but my sister did, so when the first movie made the rounds around Dallas I told her I'd be her watching buddy if she paid for drinks (it was like an Alamo draft house thing).

That first movie was enhanced with a nice buzz.
