I think it would be easier to just present yourself in lingerie made of ramen...

Every week they manage to find a way to make this show even more boring than the last, this time by spending most of the episode on a group of male characters that showed up from nowhere.

Part curiosity to see how much more deranged Yuu can get, and part hopeful for at least one decent episode (like a beach episode that they just dodged today)

Does Koizumi still have the personality of wet tissue paper?

There may have been brief moments with glasses where they were alright together but it's still just the same boring gimmick over and over.

If Koizumi ends without everyone dying of a heart attack I'm going to be very disappointed.

I'd bully you too, but pulling astolfo is enough punishment already.

They're just named after the 7 deadly sins. I'm not entirely sure if it spoils anything? It speaks to one major aspect of each Titan's biggest colony I guess lul. Tho... Tantal being Luxuria doesn't really make sense without really stretching it. Neither does Letheria and Indol being named after the virtues. That doesn't make sense in the long run lul

I just got to tantal so i can't say yet, but Luxuria - Lust, can be used in a lot of meanings, and given the speech the emperor said in that cutscene after i just arrived to the place, i can guess what it is.

Indol is Acdia.

Acedia is a state of listlessness or torpor

So, sloth pretty much.

And Leftheria is Liberatia, so the virtue of freedom, and Temperantia is the virtue of self restraint.

And yeah i reconsidered, and besides being some vague reference at how the people of the capitals are (Mor Ardain - Superbia, they really are prideful after all for example), seems to be just flavor stuff, which i wonder if its because it has religious connotations that they changed them for the english localization?

Yeah it's up to debate as to why they actually changed it. I quite like the way the sins sound in Latin. There were also Genbu, Suzaku, etc. representations that were lost in translation. Dromarch was supposed to be Byakko, Genbu was kept as is, Roc is Suzaku, Seiryuu I think was Gramps. Granted the representations have little to actually do with each other, other than Dromarch and Gramps' friendship as the 2 old guys on the team.

If Tantal also fully followed their lust motif, boy that entire Tantal trip would've turned out waaaay differently. *cue RPG Maker 18+ scenes music*

japan seems to really like 7 sins motifs, they're in everything. often as either the latin for it for the name of the demon that goes along with it

I mean that alone would make a world of difference. Apparently there's a bunch of other changes too, IIRC.

This is what i mean by a different interpretation of Lust, it doesn't always mean sexual related stuff, lust for power for example.

oh yea i remember they added a CD ands removed cost on sword skills i believe

Yeah if you finished the Tantal head portion, there could be some interesting discussion there, but now that I think about it, a lust for power would make sense in a Tantal's history sense

Oh @Calwings and @Caelthus, please keep me updated with how you think Fatal Bullet is. I might get it if it's really good.
---

Oh fatal bullet is a new SAO game, i was confusing it with hollow... whatever it was called.

Game looks really fun, hollow i mean, but seems like its really short, wonder how this new one will be, because i like that sort of game, reminds me of PSO and Dragon's dogma a bit.
---

1 of the key things i heard about fatal bullet is we're finally gonna be playing as our own character and not kirito or any other of the main cast
---

So it's an original story set in... GGO? with an original cast + your custom character, instead of being asuna's lapdog?

I can get behind that.

Yep, you can create your own character AND your own custom AI companion. Ofc, there's a GGO Kirito preset for people who don't want to customize though.

Can we talk about how garbage Kirito is or is that implied around here?

I may not be able to watch it if it happens tomorrow, I'm going to be pretty busy.

The fact that it has any connection to Sword Art Online makes it so that I won't ever touch the game.

Calwings posted...

I only have two shows (Amanchu Advance and SAO Alternative GGO) picked out for next season that I know I'm going to watch. I have to go light on next season's shows because I have a whopping seven shows I'm watching right now that will continue at least into next season.

please, for the love of god, please watch the chio-chan anime. you will not regret it.

Love to Lie Angle. The trailer made it seem like some really graphic yuri but I'm sure it won't be THAT lewd, otherwise it wouldn't be airing on TV

its pretty much yuri to-love-ru. it even has the same style of pun for the name (to-love-ru = trouble, to lie angle = triangle).

God, I hope not. I'm hoping it's just server issues or something actually fixable. I'll try it again in the morning.
