There are things Japan was doing right, they hit upon an interesting contact tracing strategy that relies on the observation that the coronavirus tends to overdisperse in clusters: most people rarely infect more than one other person, often don't spread; but on rare occasions a person will spread to dozens or even hundreds of others. So when an infection is identified, they prioritize going back through that person's contacts looking for an environment that is conducive to superspreading events. This misses alot of silent spread, but it is good at busting big clusters. That innovation let them punch way above their weight for the volume of coronavirus circulating through the community, in spite of poor management in other fields. Once contact tracing is overwhelmed, that is bad. Expect delays, hope for the best, and hope they wind down risky activities safely.

I wanna make it clear that shutting poo poo down to keep COVID-19 cases from spiraling out of control and to keep people safe is MUCH more important to me than a silly anime I'm watching. Waiting a couple of months for new episodes is absolutely nothing. I'm not trying to be like Grouchio and say something like Re:Zero is more important

Who's the older VA that ended up testing positive 'round this weekend? I swear I saw it on the Discord, but then it got lost between me posting doggos and Smoking Crow talking about LA Park.

There have been a few other voice actors that have tested positive (Toshihiko Seki and Tomoyo Kurosawa), but they've recovered since then.

Rather things be delayed than a 3rd wave happening. (Down here in México things are basically "lol, we're basically USA-lite" COVID-wise and I loving hate that)

It will be interesting to see which studios have best equipped themselves for socially distanced production, though.

The smart ones should've been ready for this once Japan had their first wave of outbreaks, so hopefully some of them saw the writing on the wall that it wasn't gonna be a one-and-done thing even after it was brought under control.

At least for now the number of cases isn't seriously as high as we're seeing in places like France, the U.K and especially the U.S.. I just wish that Japan was handling it more professionally like South Korea is

It's a crapshoot as to whether this outbreak has been caught in time and we won't know for a month or so either way.

Asking people and business to please cooperate (and/or trying to shame them into cooperating when that doesn't work) does go a long way in Japan, but without the threat of fines it's hard to keep even a relatively obedient population in check after nine months.

That's a myth pushed by LDP politicians who want to undermine public faith in the constitution for... reasons.

This week's simulcast episode of Fire Force (episode 12) sure took some turns.  cave emperor posted:From what I remember the Japanese government isn't really able or willing to legally enforce things like quarantining and social distancing due to some clause in their constitution. Asking people and business to please cooperate (and/or trying to shame them into cooperating when that doesn't work) does go a long way in Japan, but without the threat of fines it's hard to keep even a relatively obedient population in check after nine months. Even with fines you can still see some real dumb poo poo (Not to say they don't work as a general deterrent of course). We've had a serious lockdown in Melbourne going for months to contain an outbreak from July that we're only now coming out of and, while the majority of people got on the same page pretty quickly on what was necessary, every so often there'd be one dumb fucker caught by the cops driving across half the state because they need their special coffee or groceries. Or you'd get a bunch of people hanging out having a party in a house somewhere.

Finally got around to watching the latest Adachi to Shimamura. Adachi being elated after asking Shimamura on a date on Christmas is very cute. I think it's pretty clear that Shimamura has some hang ups about people relying on her, given the flashback to her preschool days and her unwillingness to recognize that Adachi is asking her out. It's not that she doesn't consider the thought, it's that she doesn't think she's valuable enough for someone to want to spend Christmas with HER specifically.

Talentless Nana is my poo poo. Like I grew up with Death Note as my foundational anime so an anime that basically doubles down on Death Note mind games is really up my alley. I have a few quibbles, like it's a good anime, I feel like it could've been great with a few structural changes to how it tells the story. Is there a thread for it?

In part, because it's a battle of information asymmetry, and Nana has only her wits against far more powerful opponents. In part, because of Nana's character arc... and I really hope for another season to get into that. Anyway, it's worth your time.

I am of course thoroughly enjoying it (Especially this last episode which was quite an a 'oh drat' episode). It just that a few critiques occurred to me and as a result some ideas I thought could be interesting to discuss as a creative exersize ways of improving on a very strong premise. I'm considering making a thread since there's a lot I'd like to muse over and discuss about it.

Talentless Nana is easily the show of the season of me, and depending on how it goes, could be of the year as well. I've read the manga though and it needs a second season, and maybe even third in the future.

FilthyImp posted:One of the things said about the old detective procedural Columbo is that it wasn't a WhoDunnit as much as a HowCatchem... because the real fun in the story was watching Columbo puzzle out how to prove his hunches and inferences. And ultimately it ends up being hubris that does most crooks in. Ok. If you're really comparing this to Columbo, I have to give it a chance. That's my favorite show from the '70s, and the only police procedural/mystery show I've ever enjoyed.

Or an anime adaptation. Really, though, it hews pretty close to DeathNote with a lot of the mind games and careful steps around people. But Nana and her Antagonist absolutely comb over details like Columbo. Just in an anime way. Ibblebibble posted:Man, Adachi To Shimamura really is Disaster Gay: The Anime.  Hey, this is really dumb and ignorant but can someone educate me on what same-sex relationships are like in Japan? I've never looked into any stigma at the high school level with that, and I realized I'm woefully uneducated about it in the nation in general.
