i did not like vlr as much as 999 and i didn't want to spend money on ztd because of that so the only uchikoshi i experienced afterwards was punchline which felt like half of an okay show that only figured out what it wanted to do midway through production

The Punchline game was worse than the anime lol

I like how it's shaped the same as that crazy expensive Alienware desktop that had like two of whatever the current GeForce Titans were and 128 gigs of ram or something ridiculous in it that came out a couple years ago.

Lol, I’ve heard of Sentai prices being trash but that’s a new low. Just read the novels with the classical music station playing at that point, poo poo.

Looking through their sales make me discover that AKB48 got their own anime in 2012.

I hate you now.

Edit: Holy poo poo, they have the Higurashi (+Kai +Rei) BR set for $16. You are no longer hated. :glomp:

It has to be priced that way because even in Japan the series costs a premium and that's some licensor mandated bullshit. From what I heard the DVDs were only available through mail order at some exorbitant price or something like that and when they had workshopped bringing it to the US before it was going to cost upwards of $1200

We all know I like to joke around, but I've gotten permission to teach some manga history, and this includes some very old work. I've decided make a thread for it tomorrow, but I wanna pre-emphasise something if anyone wants to post in it; it's gonna require all the maturity I have in me to be explain the time period of the artwork and its contexts, and I'm hopefully only warning the hot air blowers in sub forums that dont even visit this one and it will be an educational and reasonable thread.

I guess I'm also asking some of the folks who pal around with me on this sub forum if they'd be willing to shut anyone who kramers into it up.

Works for me and I finished compiling and writing about it early so it's up and ready to read.

Essentially I'm doing my best to keep a teachers bias out of the way to an academic standard and don't want any "thats not what happened! esque things, because "yells at whats on netflix" people are going to look foolish anyhow.

In fact, folks here are aware by now what crowd is on my "artistic shitlist" so while doing a translation of "Casper the Friendly ghost" doesn't suddenly make it Japanese media, please allow the Manga History thread to stick around.

From what I've heard about the novels past that point, no you don't. Apparently it very quickly abandons the real world stuff and just becomes normal fantasy with a lot more time spent in fantasy world.
