  1. So there's actually a POINT of leveling up, instead of staying in that lvl arena and killing everyone

    Yeah, that's dumb.

    People who have level 6 characters in full +10 gear should just level them to get what, enough gold to afford one set of signs? Great idea.

  2. Hello gaijins.

    I'll be streaming 11 episodes of Yuuki Yuuna tonight, 1pm PST/9pm GMT. Runtime will be 4.5 hours.

    It's a really nice series, you'll enjoy it. Got into detail a bit more just two posts above.

     

     

    Well, stream ended. We reached like 110 viewers at the peak. It was fun, laughs were had, tears were shed, now I'm going to bed.

    Didn't spot any familiar nicknames, which is a shame. But it can't be helped, I should've posted this sooner, maybe even a day before.

     

    Still, it's worth watching, give it a shot one day.

  3. Castors going to have a rough time :D

    Wait for higher levels

    If blessing works right they might 2 shot every class on every level

     

    More dmg please :,D

    You can view equipment of others now? That's really cool, good job Aigrind.

  4. My HDD is formating so I might as well review anime I've been watching this season. It's not everything I've been watching, just things I found great and worth sharing.

    I'll try to avoid mentioning stuff from episodes other than first three, to keep it relatively spoiler-free.

    The list isn't really listed from my favorite to my least favorite, it's more of a random order where I wrote title and 1-2 sentences when I had an idea what to write.

     

     

    Kiseijuu (Parasyte)

    An ordinary high school student, Izumi Shinichi, lives a normal life, hangs out with friends, does well at school. One day, a mysterious parasite takes over his arm. As a result, it can now talk, stretch, separate, and even turn into steel blades. This wouldn't be so bad, if only other people didn't get attacked by parasites too. Most of them didn't have that much luck, and parasites took over thier brains. Which lets parasites completely control bodies. Also, their diet consists of human meat.

     

    This is one of my favorites this season. Maybe you're familiar with studio Madhouse? They made some popular titles, most recently No Game No Life.

    The plot is as explained above. Parasites emanate special wavelengths, that other parasites can detect. As a result, Shinichi "easily" encounters them. Most of the times, that results in a fight.

    Action scenes are done really well. Not a lot of talking, it manages to show off what parasites are capable of - flourishing blades accurately at very high speed. Blood happens, but it's neither a single bloody cough, nor a literal geyser of blood. It's just real.

     

    Shingeki no Bahamut

    So, this is pretty interesting. The main character is Favaro, a Bounty Hunter. Basically he hunts wanted people. One night when drunk he meets a girl who overheard him talking about his great adventures, and asks him to escort her to a really distant place. Being drunk, he accepts because you don't refuse cute ladies. And then it turns out that girl was a demon and turned him into half-demon until they arrive.

    This is really nice setting. It has this western (as in, like movies with Clint Eastwood) feeling to it.

    Art is gorgeous, people are ugly and realistic, sceneries are stunning, hell yeah. 

    This, and Parasyte, are the two "shows for normal people", which you could watch with your friends who don't usually watch anime, and not be called a total loser.

     

    Yuuki Yuuna wa Yuusha de Aru

    This show. THIS SHOW. It's fantastic, probably my favorite of this season. Why? Well, for a multitude of reasons, that I sadly can't tell you because they happens after first three episodes I promised to talk about.

    So let's focus on first three episodes. Four middle school girls are members of "Hero Club" which focuses on helping other people - puppet shows for grade schoolers, finding homes for sheltered cats, picking up trash, etc. Until one day time stops and a forest starts growing out of nowhere. In there, a huge monster starts shooting at them and wrecking chaos. They find out their phones have a function which can turn them into magical girls, giving them the power needed to fight that monster. They manage to beat it and resume their peaceful lives. Until of course, more monsters come.

    And that's all I'm going to tell you. Something interesting happens in episode three, but I'll let it surprise you, because it's a pretty amazing thing.

     

    Soundtrack is just amazing. It has everything - hype battle themes, use of varied music styles, even chanting. It really adds well to the atmosphere.

    The action scenes are intense, because of bizarre method to successfully kill monsters. On the other hand, slice of life parts are relaxing and adorable, it works like a medicine for my tired soul.

     

    But yeah, that's all I can say. I'd buy BD if I had money for that, but I'm poor as duck and shipping fees are painful. Watch it, it's late bloomer, and first five episodes, while really great, don't really show what's going on in reality (preview gives you a vague hint). I am ready for final episode on December 25th, let's hope I don't get suicidal urges after Takahiro and Kishi ruin save Christmas once more.

     

    Ore, Twintails ni Narimasu

    Okay, get this: it's like Power Rangers, but main characters are girls in skimpy suits, who attain their power from their love for twintails, and villains are humanoid-animal-aliens that came to Earth to rob us of our fetishes. That's all.

    I don't know what else to say about it. It's just such a brilliant premise, it never fails to entertain me and make me laugh. The villains might sound weird at first, but they are like heroes for me, especially the ones I share tastes with. 

    It's visible the budget for this show is low. At some moments the art is horrible it makes me laugh. Which is a real shame. However, the scenes that matter are animated really well.

     

    Inou-Battle wa Nichijou-kei no Naka de

    This one, with above two, is my top3 - shows that I can't wait for every week. Or rather, only three shows on this list that I have watched every episode of so far (school sucks, yo).

    So what's special about this one? A highschool literature club one day gets super powers. Their lives continue like usual. In episode 9 there is some action where characters fight using their powers. After that they go back to normal again.

    This is harem show, but it's quite unique. The main character is likeable as hell, despite being chuuni he's surprisingly mature and responsible, and wins a girl in second episode.

    I'll mention art here because it's done by Trigger. You know them? The people who made stuff like Kill la Kill and Inferno Cop. It's a pretty good art.

     

    Hitsugi no Chaika S2

    My dear Chaika. It ended last week. No more Chaika ever.

    I could tell you how amazing it was, but hey, I already did it in this thread before. And before you watch this second season, you should watch first season.

     

    Danna ga Nani whatever

    It's a show about an otaku, and his normal wife. It's pretty fun, and every episode is only 3 minutes long. It's worth a shot just for the reason it's only 3 minutes.

     

     

     

    And that concludes my review. Other tops that are worth mentioning but I don't know what to say about are Nanatsu no Taizai, Garo Honoo no Kokuin, and Amagi Brilliant Park. Second seasons/cours I heard good things about but haven't finished first seasons yet are Log Horizon, WIXOSS, Psycho Pass, Mushishi, and Akame ga Kill.

  5. That's some pretty nice photoshopping in all pics:) Can you teach me how :blush: ?

    I'm actually using GIMP.

    It's pretty easy. Just get a hat, paste it into image you want to hatify, resize, and maybe use eraser here and there so it fits well.

  6. It's that time of year again.

    You! Yeah, you! Do you want your boring and common avatar to be decorated with high quality 4K HD hat image? Of course you do, everyone does.

    Now, you're probably wondering "what do I have to do to qualify for this wonderful festivity?", and the answer is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. Just post in this thread saying you want a hat, and I'll give you a hat, or even two so you can pick whichever you like the most.

    Of course, you can include images in your post and I'll hatify them instead - be it your avatar in higher quality, something you want to use as avatar, or your beautiful beautiful face with desire to change your facebook photo.

     

    And it's completely free! As a kind Santa's helper, I believe in giving over taking. As long as my hats bring joy, I will continue to do so.

     

     

    A freebie for everyone.
