I just spent the past hour adding a bunch of new pics to my sig rotation until it suddenly dawned on me: why am I even doing this? Due to Imgur purposely breaking itself to spite GameFAQs users, barely anyone is even going to see my sig pics. But I have so many sig pics that I can't just re-upload them all to ImgTC (especially since you can only upload up to 20 images at a time) and then re-add them to my sig rotation. It would take forever.

I'm starting to think that it's pointless for me to keep my sig rotation going, and that I should give it up and just pick one nice pic/gif and use that.

I don't randomly click on CE topics that might have stuff that I don't want to see, and I never go on CE in public. Unless someone is going around suiciding in random topics with gore pics (and if that's the case, there's usually a topic on CE pointing it out as a warning) I don't really have a reason to turn my image embedding off.

I hit the beginning of chapter 10 in Xenoblade 2 and the crazy bullshit is starting. Ive been waiting for this lol. I wonder if it will get Xenosaga levels of crazy

The opening scene is from Xenoblade 1 btw

Oh really? I shoulda beat the game. That would have been a fun moment.

It's still crazy how 1 and 2's universes were both created by normal humans messing with crazy technology. Are the Bionis and Mechonis just like the Titans?

A bit different. Bionis is actually Klaus' other half, and Mechonis is Galea, aka the woman Klaus was arguing against. Even after their previous life, they're still bickering in their new world. Meanwhile, titans are just blades who've lived long enough and learned long enough and takes the data to grow into a titan form. On a side note, the 3rd Aegis that disappeared is pretty much commonly agreed to be Alvis from Xenoblade 1, because he's the one who gives Shulk his Monado.

And yeah most people speculate that 1's world is the one that got created by Klaus activating the conduit, and 2's world is the remains of the original world that Klaus basically put a blanket over. At the end of 1, Shulk creates a new world to live on rather than being reliant on Bionis and Mechonis, frequently revered as if Gods of the world, and a common theory is that at the end of 2, you'll clearly see that world Shulk created

Tossing in my two cents: the same thing happened to a friend of mine but Diamond is so chill in comparison I still feel he's missing Araki's best by stopping at Stardust.

Still, you shouldn't force yourself to watch or read anything. Life is too short.

Debatable. Stardust is usually seen as one of the weaker parts on account of it being Araki's first attempt at Stands. It is however, the most known and iconic part. It also has one of the weaker JoJo's. Jotaro, while badass, isn't that great of a main, and works much better as a secondary. Joseph in Part 2 is often considered to be the best JoJo protag.

If you liked Part 3, I highly, HIGHLY, recommend the upcoming Part 5. Part 5 is basically Stardust Crusaders perfected.

The Side Cast in Stardust is really good, with PolPol being one of the best JoBros. But they had to be really good to pick the slack left by Jotaro.

Part 5 has a really good side cast as well, with some pretty great Stand Powers in the group.

He's not a bad character, it's just he's a one trick pony. He's a badass with badass one liners. That's really all there is to him. If Stardust was just Jotaro, it would be quite possibly the worst part, because he can't carry a show by himself. Unlike the Bluff Master Himself, Joseph in Part 2. Or any of the future JoJo's.

Some small details relating to the Protag of Part 6, Stone Ocean. Luckily, his daughter Jolyne pretty much inherits all of her father's Badassery and all of her Great Grandfather's cunning to pretty much completely one up her dad.

Because I've already watched the whole franchise up to this point and really liked it, and I've been waiting for a while for the story to continue. Plus, I'll be watching the English dub like I did the rest of the series, so I'll know (from the sub watchers being ahead of me) when a gory scene is coming up that I need to look away from.

Argh jealous!!! I dunno if the subbed version is available yet. But it's by far my favorite anime of the season.

I don't think Ashita no Joe ended with a Yuri vs Joe equivalent fight anyways, did it? I thought it was like some dude who was just really really good at boxing.

Well, I was more worried about the ending being too close to the circumstances and drama surrounding Rikiishis death. In Joe, Rikiishi died from his injuries and health issues after fighting Joe way before the ending and Joe ended up dying fighting the world champion in the end.

Megalo Boxs gear-related shenanigans can more or less replicate those circumstances in a shorter time, and the final fight can play out as a condensed version of that ending, so to speak.

https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2018-06-28/crunchyroll-funimation-to-stream-chio-school-road-harukana-receive-hanebad-anime/.133536

So now I know that four of the six shows I'm interested in next season are safely in the hands of the CR/Funi partnership, and those four are also getting English dubs. I know I'm sticking with Island subbed (because of Yukari Tamura's angelic voice) and I know I'm waiting for the dub of Angels Of Death (so the sub watchers can let me know if the show is too gory for me), but Chio's School Road and Harukana Receive are up in the air. Still waiting to find out who is licensing Back Street Girls and High Score Girl though...

Yeah, I'm leaning that way for Harukana. Generally, the more female-heavy a show's cast is, the more likely I'll prefer the show subbed over dubbed.

For Chio, it really could go either way. I've noticed that shows that rely on "random comedy" like this one often do equally well in both Japanese and English. D-Frag is one of my most notable exceptions to the "female-heavy = subbed is better" rule because it has one of the greatest English dubs that I've ever heard in my life. It's definitely a "random comedy" show, and the over-the-top reactions of the English VA's (especially Austin Tindle as Kenji) were amazing.

Yeah I feel like it's a terrific mix of both old and new just from the art direction, general style, the plot, the characters and all.

Also Tetsuo, the little kid, I always found it really cool that they... at least I think, used the rapper as Tetsuo's VA which made the culture of the slums feel integrated with the characters

If you enjoy sci-fi anime, even remotely, Steins;Gate is a must, as it's easily one of the best anime, ever, period. It's the holy grail of sci-fi anime without a doubt.
