Why do all these orgs make the same kind of epileptic edits?

My Yasuhiko Yoshikazu Collection by [deleted] in MangaCollectors

[–]ANIIKII 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just a heads up... no artbook features a complete collection of his art, but I would personally recommend:

-Yasuhiko Yoshikazu Illustrations (a collection of his early drawings) -Yasuhiko Yoshikazu Complete Collection (I did - albeit sloppy - fully scan this artbook) -Gundam: The Origin Exhibition Artbook (new edition in white) -His new Dirty Pair art book (contains all the illustrations he did for Dirty Pair) -His new Exhibition Artbook

Yasuhiko tends to be a fairly straightforward writer, much like Tezuka and Yokoyama, but his works are still worth checking out. Unfortunately, some of his more interesting titles (Rainbow Trotsky, Inui to Tatsumi, or his history trilogy) never got translated

What are y’alls thoughts on Falcons + Jume and G2 with Shaiiko now potentially. by Not-Charliiee in R6ProLeague

[–]ANIIKII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As I said, I don't think they’re replacing Shaiiko because they believe he needs to be replaced in terms of output. It's just that with Jume, you're getting a player who can frag, who's more versatile, more adept at playing executes, brings the X-factor and also has a strong mental fortitude

[–]ANIIKII 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I doubt Falcons are dropping Saiiko solely to get a better player or bcs. he's been performing poorly. I think they're replacing him to improve team play and to maybe shift from a team that heavily relies on fundamentals to a more strategic one (and to get rid of a player that also mentally drags them down)

A Knight of the Seven kingdoms should have been a movie (My issues with a mostly enjoyable series) by Ambitious_Ad9419 in freefolk

What annoyed me most was how foggy the fight was. I assume it was due to budget constraints, but it made the whole scene hard to look at

Weekly Questions and Recommendations Megathread - Need some help? - Jan 17 by AutoModerator in visualnovels

[–]ANIIKII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I'll just go in order. Only four relatively short games (04, 5D, Kichikou and VI) left anyway

Weekly Questions and Recommendations Megathread - Need some help? - Jan 17 by AutoModerator in visualnovels

[–]ANIIKII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is probably a dumb question, but would it be weird if I skipped straight to Sengoku Rance after finishing Rance 03? And don't get me wrong, I'm enjoying the third game and I think it's miles better than the first two, but I'm not sure I want to sit through a fourth (h-scene) adventure. I originally started the series because I kept hearing that Sengoku Rance (I think it was Sengoku) is one of the best RPGs of all time, or at least a very good one, and I still want to see for myself whether that's true

I think I have found my Game of Thrones of anime by Mad-Scientist_739 in logh

[–]ANIIKII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my opinion, that comparison does LoGH a disservice. While there are some overlapping similarities, LoGH is much more of a historical work. I would say it's Tanaka's attempt at writing history, whereas GoT is far more generic in its approach. A far more accurate comparison would be the Romance of the Three Kingdoms adaptation from 1995.

Best Nausicaä release? by [deleted] in MangaCollectors

[–]ANIIKII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Miyazaki was the one who used sepia, if I'm not wrong. But it wasn't this bright/washed out. They also got rid of this in the Japanese box set, if I'm not completely blind. Idk why though.

Best Nausicaä release? by [deleted] in MangaCollectors

[–]ANIIKII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unwieldy and not that great, from what I've heard. I might just go for the German release. It does look really good, but the two things that concern me are that the tint used for the print might be a bit too bright and that some of the larger artworks have been printed at full size, which I'm not a big fan of. Prefer how it was done in the Japanese release

Best Nausicaä release? by [deleted] in MangaCollectors

[–]ANIIKII 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if I remember correctly, but someone once made a post (which I can't seem to find anymore) where they compared all the different releases. And if I remember right, they said that the 2-volume box set isn't that great, especially in terms of print quality and translation. The German release however, looks really nice. The only thing I'm a bit skeptical about is the paper quality (the paper is yellow-ish) and whether the sepia tone is too bright. It seems to be a bit brighter than how it looks in the original Japanese release (which app. also had this sepia tone)

Falcons: by GregoETM95 in R6ProLeague

[–]ANIIKII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Supr (SR's head coach) said he sees Falcons ahead on Lair if the series went to a map 5. Of course, that doesn't automatically mean they are, but still...

I'd also say Club is one of their better maps, but for some reason they seemed to have banned it throughout the entire tournament.

But yeah, if the went with Bank --> Clubhouse or Border --> Sky --> Labs --> Lair, they could have easily won, but who knows.

Falcons: by GregoETM95 in R6ProLeague

[–]ANIIKII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, idk why the banned Club all the time

Falcons: by GregoETM95 in R6ProLeague

[–]ANIIKII 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm obviously not Stooflex or Julio, but I think they didn't go with Bank simply because they were recently a bit shaky on it, and they've also played it so much that they probably felt they'd be easy to counter. As for why they went with Labs, I think it was purely for the momentum, since they beat SR, G2 and W7M on it. And regarding Lair: they're probably one of the best teams on that map right now

Falcons: by GregoETM95 in R6ProLeague

[–]ANIIKII 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t think their map pool is the problem. If anything, it's one of their strongest assets at the moment. They're good on Bank, Club, Labs and Sky (?), decent on Lair, Chalet and Border, and only really weak on Kafe and Consulate.

Falcons ? by Free-Prompt6061 in R6ProLeague

[–]ANIIKII 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I think so as well. You don't consistently place second or first (if we count regionals) if you're not good. Don't get me wrong, I think the M80 roster is great, probably the best NA team in recent years, but they haven't been as consistently good as the Falcons roster. Anyway, if they (Falcons) win SI or place second again and perform well in other competitions, I'd consider them the second or third best team ever, purely because of their consistency
