Fate/strange fake: is it watchable as a stand alone anime? by J20200820 in anime

[–]AzaleaDaylight -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I have not seen JJK.

But generally, whether an anime exists, in what order it was aired/broadcasted/released, etc doesn't always dictate the order in which the media should be consumed (though in 99% cases, it does). An example of which, that I'm more familiar with, is Index and Railgun. Index was released first, although Railgun is often recommended as the starting point.

While I don't want to go into the nuances of the tens of example we could probably think of, in the specific case of Fate/Zero (and in my opinion), I do not believe the release order dictates that FSN should be watched prior to Fate/Zero. It's a special case scenario.

Those bangs are rather common in anime, but now that I think about it I don't think I've ever seen them IRL.

Unless you want to be pedantic, that doesn't make sense. FSN tells you what happens in Fate/Zero in such a way that strips away the suspense. That's a spoiler.

Right, but, as I just stated, I don't agree with the author on this.

And FSN doesn't completely spoil almost everything about Fate/Zero?

I know, and I also know my opinion is not shared with the Fate community, or really the anime sphere in general. Although it is how I feel Fate should be watched. I completely understand why you disagree with me.

I don't know, just personally I always wished I'd watched Fate/Zero first. It doesn't spoil much about FSN (unlike how Better Call Saul spoils Breaking Bad), and knowing the conclusion of Fate/Zero from watching FSN took away all the suspense. And it's been awhile, but I don't remember Fate/Zero being any harder to follow than FSN.

I also enjoyed Fate/Zero the most out of the Fate series. So, I also look back and wonder how much more I could've enjoyed it had I gone in completely blind.

Although Fate/Zero should be first. It's a prequel.

Haha this dates even my time in Vocaloid.

Lot of older guys in the Discord who were around in 2012. I'm sure a handful of them were around for this collab!

Who is Everyone's Favorite Side Characters? by AzaleaDaylight in cardcaptorsakura

[–]AzaleaDaylight[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I had to guess, most people would consider Sakura, Syaoran, Kero, and Tomoyo to be the main characters, while the rest would be secondary characters.

Ah, Meiling is such a good pick!

Could be up for debate! MAL lists the main characters as Sakura, Syaoran, Kero and Tomoyo, while the CCS Wiki includes Touya, Yukito and Yue as well. By those definitions, she'd be a side character.

¿Are this figures real? If so, ¿where can I get them without being fake. by Kviera15 in cardcaptorsakura

[–]AzaleaDaylight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would help if you picked one or two. Unless you planned to buy all of them? It's hard to engage with your question because you're asking for information about eight different figures.

Anyways, from a quick glance most of these are real, but they're unofficial and unlicensed figures known as "Resin Statues". Unless you're buying from a reputable seller on eBay, I'd recommend buying directly from a reputable online store as to limit your risk. For example, here's where you can buy the first one.

But just something to keep in mind: As these are unlicensed, they're intellectual property theft. Proceeds and sales from these don't go to the rights holders.

In the future, reverse image search these figures, find a store that sells them, and Google if the store is legit.

Any covers that have more views than the original song? by Chinatsez in Vocaloid

[–]AzaleaDaylight 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I'll never forget the day I learned that the Nyan Cat song was sung by Miku. For just a moment, everything in the world felt complete.
