FilthyImp posted:I was playing with the VR headset yesterday and found a no frills video player that just threw a big rear end screen in front of me in pitch black that could be tilted up and down. There's VR video players that'll put you in a VR movie theater too honestly i like it better that way, something about floating in a featureless virtual void gives me motion sickness real quick

Arc Hammer posted:Is there a good article or video out there that goes into the reasons why many Shonen shows and villain hierarchies in general have a fixation on rankings, classes and statistics to rate the power of antagonists? It's a simple storytelling tool that can be used to easily set viewer expectations and create obvious goals for the protagonist. Sometimes it can be a social commentary thing (there are SO MANY animes where a school lumps all the misfits into a single class that's treated way worse, for example), but most of the time it's just a zero-effort way of establishing fight odds in advance.

DoubleDonut posted:I mean in Dragon Ball itself power levels are revealed to be Pretty Much Bullshit right after they're introduced That's kinda the point in general. Power levels are introduced to make the reader think "oh geez, their perfectly accurate machine said the villain is ten times as strong as the hero, how can the hero possibly win?!" Setting the expectation that the villain is overwhelmingly stronger makes for a more dramatic situation. But of course the hero's side has to win, so they necessarily have to find some way to overturn or overcome the supposed power difference. So whatever power difference was announced via power levels has to be either changed somehow (like unlocking a new powerup) or rendered moot (like by revealing a special technique that ignores power differences).

Tabletops posted:heroic age(did anyone else like this show?) yeah It had some rough parts, and I think relying too much on the space prophecies ultimately sucked a lot of the impact out of the later parts of the show, but I like that kind of sci-fi tale that takes things a little bigger than the average mecha show

dogsicle posted:people who liked 7 seem to hate everything that came after but it's difficult to get much of an answer why I don't know a whole lot about the E7 sequels, but I think it's kinda similar to how people feel about Nadesico: the original wasn't super groundbreaking but was a well-done tale with a generally optimistic outlook, and then it got a bunch of weird sequel stuff with a much darker tone that kinda stomped all over what people loved about the original.

Machai posted:I've started reading Eyeshield 21 and I'm currently at the game against the American team and boy is there a lot of racism happening. I get that the coach is supposed to be a rich racist rear end in a top hat but everyone else talks about how the one black character is just naturally better than everyone else because of his race and it's really off-putting. Is this going to be a thing for the rest of the series or do they stop with the blatant-racism-as-fact after this arc? Unfortunately, it's going to come up every time someone goes against Panther, just like how "a Japanese person simply cannot withstand the huge muscular bodies of Americans" will continue to come up every time an American team is slated to go against a Japanese team.

pentyne posted:Is Gurenn Lagenn just famous for being almost a laser guided meme generator? I've never seen anyone talk about that show for anything like art, story, animation, music, etc. but for all the super insane one-liners and weird power escalation. Any show that generated memes people still remember 15 years later was probably noteworthy in some aspect, even if those aspects have been forgotten over time. No one bothers to meme on poo poo that no one watched because it sucks.
