Blood of Zeus is out on Netflix. I have not seen it yet, but I figured you might be interested if you have not heard of it yet:)

Gonna watch it in a few days myself (After my amazon sub ends on the 3rd.)

Saw it, thanks, but not going to watch until after Halloween... speaking of, I realize I haven't watched a horror anything in the past few days (or read any new horror manga).

---

Caught up to where I wanted to in One Piece. Now I gotta decide if I want to catch up on the manga next or not.

---

the new banner gave me three stahns.

---

Mustered up the health to watch another episode of anime. Started danmachi S3. I'm still enjoying it although a tiny recap might have been nice. I can't remember what level Bell is or what floor they got to.

I guess you could do worse?
Mikleos stone at level 2 offers a nice 7.2% Regen, so Im happy to have that and a second Yuna (more evasion), but what I want are some great attackers! I dont think Sophie is all that great.

This puts Reid at level 3, tho. So at least hes halfway to a full awakening.

---

I mean, I just infused the two extra stones into stahns, and he is now, uh, better that everyone else I have



I tapped auto, but not sure why it distributed the stones like that

---

Theres an EXP Potion event going on rn. Its a great time to go and max out your levels as far as you can.

Fix that sub stone grid, boi. Youll want all the stones there to be the same weapon type. Even if you have to use R stones atm, itll still give you a significant boost.

Swap Yuri and Stahns positions in the party. Youll want Yuri to combo first to bring the damage multiplier up. Actually, maybe put Emil first, for that Wildfire.

So...

Emil, Rutee, Yuri, Stahn. Turn order is important and this just streamlines that. Yuri is, bar none, the best unit in the game for racking up combos outside of Dhaos (who can only get higher hit counts in battles against 4 opponents). He can reach 30+ hits all by himself with minimal investment and his defensive stat spread ensures you wont have to baby sit him the entire time to keep him alive.

Oh no I totally forgot to track the new topic and now I've missed a bunch of posts. I'll come back later and reply to a few choice ones but first this:

You guys ready for Sony to stick their hands in your anime pie like they did with the PS4 and anime games? Well now they're going to own crunchyroll too yay!

Definitely never subscribing while Sony owns Crunchyroll I'm not going to support censorship.

Oh God no

Well, that's just horrid news. Hopefully, if they do add censorship, it's only at their end and not influencing shows to be more censored from the get go.

---

My subscription to Crunchyroll is already on shaky ground.

This might be the thing that kills it for me.

i also see no xp potion event

also they need to fix this game ignoring audio settings and playing random ass sfx sounds occasionally

---

Managed to suffer through my symptoms to watch 4 episodes of Danmachi yesterday so now I'm caught up. Still enjoying it.

Well this is horrible news. Especially right after australia keeps trying to ban any of the pervy anime.

its half AP lol

that's an event? i thought it was just always

I watch vtubers speak japanese with music in the background: body is fine.
I don't even watch anime, just listen to it, with no music: body freaks out.
I watch anime with the sound off: body freaks out

It just doesn't make sense. There's a glitch in reality that is ruining my life or something. Where is the method to this madness? God needs to patch this shit already. My life would be so much better if I could just watch anime.

---

ooo, i got velvet on the velvet banner

but not the actual event velvet, just the regular one :l

My fave vtubers are:
Korone (dog girl)
Gawr Gura (shark girl)
Nyanners (cat girl)

a few clips for vtuber addicts:

I fell down the rabbit hole and I dont even watch Pekora

---

Nyanners is my favorite although I liked her even before she became a vtuber.

After that that it's hard for me to really narrow it down.

I like artemis, gura, ironmouse, melody, kiara, ame, coco, korone quite a bit. Been seeing more marine and haachama lately and they both seem fun.

Theres not really any I dislike.

---

Theyre soo cute

---

I can't watch Nyanners's vtuber stuff because she's doing it on Twitch.

I refuse to use Twitch until their ads get defeated. Fuck Bezos.

She has a youtube channel where a lot of the good stuff gets uploaded and theres the typical clip youtube channels that include her stuff.

---

Yeah I have never watched entire streams, usually just clips on youtube but occasionally I will watch a old stream for a specific game that was uploaded to youtube.

---

I think it's funny how haachama keeps tagging her streams as HoloEN and just speaking broken english. To be fair her english seems to be getting decent.

I've been watching some of the youtube streams lately just cause theres nothing else to do for me.

she uses that tag for english-only streams, which she does quite a lot of since she lived in australia long enough to be forced to be able to speak it at a passing level

still sounds like a toddler though

Yeah I had her muse dash stream on in the background while earlier. Was pretty adorable.

Man, I'm so bored. I just spent an hour watching Pikamee learn english. Watching some of these japanese vtubers makes me realize just how much japanese I've picked up from anime. I'm always surprised how much I understand. I really should make an effort to learn the grammar and particles at some point. I feel like if I did that I could probably learn just by watching vtubers/anime.

---

Doesnt Pikamee already know perfect english?

I saw her entire playthrough of Little Miss Fortune.

I thought she grew up in Texas.

Her accent sounds native but she makes a fair amount of mistakes, especially with written stuff. I don't really know.

Lol I love Cosmos, he good as hell at smash.

Prolly going to tell some of the guys at work about vtubers.

I laughed so hard at the triple monitor setup of vtubers and the sad music XDDDD.

wtf Australia banned hentai and more?

Yeah. They've always been a bit nuts about banning "offensive" content but this is pretty unfortunate.

---

I feel like that is asking Japan to make a hentai, or a dozen, about Australia. Maybe I've been over-exposed to internet trolls through the last 30-ish years.

YoukaiSlayer posted...

Which reinforces the idea that "liberalism" is completely detached from its actual meaning, since it's these "liberal" parties that are so anti-freedom. And it goes a LOT further than just hentai, since it also bans mature-subject anime and manga. But people forget that elections have consequences.

There's indeed a liberal use of the word liberal, and it would be liberating if such parties didn't abuse the term.

Oh Japan.

I was supposed to be dead, but when I woke up, I was a rat!
...or, more accurately, I became a virus and infected a rat!!
The more I infect, the more bodies and skills I get!
I'm going to cause a pandemic in this other world!

So yeah, we got Virus isekai now.


---

Why does it need to be an isekai at all? It could just be about a virus in our world.

It's both a little unusual and something that I can't believe hasn't been made already.

Because the isekai fad is money, but also because COVID is a thing right now so it might be a little soon.

And I hope it remains so by the time I put out my own isekai-themed story, because the gods know I don't have enough stories in progress.

I'm still hoping for a long running isekai series.

if you count the light novels, the smartphone one is MONSTROUSLY long, up to 22 volumes so far

it's gotten so convoluted there's a website dedicated to helping you remember who the fuck was who because the guy introduces on average 20 new characters per volume and they keep popping up later on

Not to mention the secondary issue of zany concepts quickly being used up. In another year or two, there might not be anything left. =p

I'm still waiting for the isekai about a guy who dies and becomes another world, that other people in turn get isekai'd into.

Mine's less of a zany concept and more of a Sci-Fi exploration of online gaming and its AI in the pre-dawn of the great singularity . . . using a fantasy world, and a main character you're not 100% sure is human or not (but they certainly think they are).
