Hello anime thread, how is your summer going so far?

I remembered that my crunchy roll account can be used for more than just Jojo.

Durarara! is interesting, though I dunno if I care about it yet. I think the dub is a little irritating.

Hunter x Hunter won me over immediately, but it also makes me want to go back and watch Yu Yu Hakusho. I wonder if I'd still like it today?

One time when I went to Busch Gardens in Virginia, there was this kid who was just sort of peeing out in the open. This was in the dinosaur area. It was raining really hard, so I thought he was just draining the water from his pants.

I hope you liked that story.

does HXH 2011 have an original ending, since the manga has been on haitus for about two and a half years?

Butt Ghost
Nov 23, 2013

I initially thought the screamo ED in Hunter X Hunter didn't really fit with the rest of the show, but now that Illumi showed up and Killua is getting edgier than ever, I'm starting to get it.

Butt Ghost

I feel kind of bad that Leorio has yet to fight, or at least win, a battle on his own. Just as he's about to finally fight a dude one-on-one, Killua goes EdgeMaster420 and steals his kill.

What can Leorio even do, aside from feel people up?

Butt Ghost
Nov 23, 2013

Aparrently the author of Hunter X Hunter intended to stop going on hiatuses so the anime wouldn't catch up to the manga.

Welp.

In other news, I watched some YuYu Hakusho, which I haven't seen for years. It feels just like Diamond Is Unbreakable, and that is good.

Also wow, I don't remember the first episode of YYH being this sad. I'm sorry, Kuwabara. :(

this is why you can't really blame people for seeing a lot where only a bit exists. as a lesbian, i like stories about lesbians. sometimes stories that aren't explicitly about lesbianism have enough ambiguity in a specific relationship that i read it that way, because it makes the show more enjoyable for me, and it's not like there are a whole lot of anime for me to turn to when i want explicitly lesbian stories. this isn't a requirement for me to enjoy something but i'd be lying if i said i didn't see it as a plus.
It's weird for me seeing you refer to yourself as a lesbian because in me head I always just imagined you were Doom Guy irl.

Was Nen in Hunter X Hunter thought up after the series began? It's weird that it took nearly 30 episodes to introduce it in the anime, and now the show feels a little different to how it started.

Butt Ghost
Nov 23, 2013

That seems fair. And I guess some instances where Gon apparently was using it without knowing could have been legit foreshadowing.

Oh gee, I wonder if Hisoka is really gonna make it out of thi-

"Hunter x Hunter Episode 32 – A X Surprising X Win"

Oh, uh, alright then.

I've been watching it and I really like it so far. I'm over thirty episodes end, but it doesn't feel that long at all. Also it has good music.

imo making a mother 4 completely misses the point of mother 3 and also why the dude doesn't wanna make a mother 4

it's okay for stuff to just... end, sometimes. The world doesn't need a mother 4. If Earthbound/Mother 3 inspired you to make a game, awesome! But why not just make your own thing instead of clinging to the thing you love's coattails?

I have some problems with LISA but that game is a good example of something obviously inspired by earthbound while also being completely its own thing.
I think the developers said that if they get a cease and desist, they'll retool the game to be its own thing or something. I wouldn't mind it being relabeled, since if something is a fan game, the experience is just cheapened for me somewhat. Then again, I don't think a different brand name could redeem Mighty No. 9 for me.

Okay, Kurapika is some overpowered bullshit. Mastering every Nen when in Edge Mode is kind of ridiculous. He seems like he should be the protagonist of another shonen altogether.

Also, wow, HXH is a lot darker than how it started. I guess I understand the "Rated R/NC17."

Whaaa?

Last episode I saw was when Killua's family executed the little black girl for letting them pass. :stare:
The series is labeled as Rated R/NC17 on MyAnimeList. Apparently it's also under Jump's T+ line in the US. If you don't mind spoilers

The black girl was only knocked out, and the dad eventually let Killua leave, scheming for him to come back some day. Then Gon and Killua have some fun time adventures in a tournament and stuff, but now the Phantom Troupe is here and people are dying left and right. They slaughter an entire room of people with Machine Gun Hands Kung Fu Magic, then someone else absorbs the blood and corpses with their demon vacuum. Things are getting pretty brutal, and Kurapika isn't taking poo poo.
