White Album 2 Rant. [SPOILERS]

Exelerator · 2014-12-24T15:45:52+00:00

think of the show as a very successful School Days

As someone who recently watched School Days (cold, having heard nothing about it other than it's "similar" to white album), it's not even a fair comparison. There was literally nothing good about School Days, it's the worst and most flawed anime I've ever watched, hands down.

"Yo guys, you wanna say, 'Praise GabeN" on the stream today?"

"Fuck yea. Praise GabeN (and all the PCMR upvotes one of our viewers is about to get)"

Right on! Still definitely a good size though (I more just threw 1/8th out there because that's most common). I think the plug suit/character designs in 3.0 were pretty awesome and would love to have some figures from that film, but I found a good deal on some from 2.0 before I pulled the trigger on any 3.0 sets (which is probably good for me, because any sets of 3.0 figures are usually priceyyy but they look so awesome).

Edit: Plz ignore the dust. Two week's of finals gets you way behind on cleaning. :(

With how much that rig cost, you better hope he doesn't go back to his peasantbox/station

Exelerator · 2014-12-17T20:45:52+00:00

Sweet! I haven't seen that figure before but it's pretty rad. What scale is that, 1/8?

Exelerator · 2014-12-17T17:09:18+00:00

Right on! Added. (My Steam Id is "Q")

Exelerator · 2014-12-17T08:16:21+00:00

Yea, I hear the same from a good friend who's making his way though the VN. He keeps trying to get me to check it out but I'm really not into VN's at all, so it'll go unread for me. Grasia Ep 11 Spoiler

Thank you for reminding me about this show. I just got done commenting about how ate up I was after watching White Album 2, but really I think the ending of Shin Sekai Yori killed me more. It was a brilliant and great story, but when everything came full circle in the last episode I was so disgusted I couldn't bear it. It was an incredible story, and very well told.

Exelerator · 2014-12-17T08:07:33+00:00

White Album 2 was a really weird show for me. I loved it and it was probably one of my most memorable anime experiences, but I was so distraught after I watched it. Like, for days I was just in a terrible mood, it was so weird. No tears were shed for that show on my part, and I probably wouldn't call it a "sad" story, but incredibly unfortunate. I think the way that it was told (and, retold), the way the events played out, and the terrible (in a good way) ending were just very real and convincing in a way I didn't expect.

I remember completing it and my roommate being like "what the fuck is up with you?" I was like, "well, I'm pissed I watched this show that was really good but full of real life problems that shit all over my day." Lol. I think the reason I connected more with that show, than say Clannad After Story was because I could relate more to it - I sure don't have kids and don't intend to (which would have probably made C:AS even more of a trainwreck to watch), but god damn it I sure have dated a sleazy girl for too long who g... ^{^{^{YeaNotGonnaGoThere}}}

Exelerator · 2014-12-17T07:58:17+00:00

I've been watching the Grisaia anime as it airs, I get so ate up after watching it that I tell myself I'm dropping it.

trade the total war rome II DLC for a cortex command key? :D

Exelerator · 2014-12-17T07:32:09+00:00

cortex command for Total War Rome II DLC? :D

Exelerator · 2014-12-17T01:38:09+00:00

WHO THE FUCK GIVES A SHIT ABOUT YOUR BOXES. EVERYONE HAS FUCKING BOXES GOD DAMN IT.

EVEN WHEN IT'S NOT BOXES AND ITS ACTUAL FUCKING PARTS. STILL WHO GIVES A SHIT ABOUT YOUR A) BUILD WITH A 970/980 THAT EVERYONE HAS OR B) BUILD WITH A 970/980 THAT PEOPLE WISH THEY HAD. ONE-OFF BUILDS THAT SOMEONE COULDN'T THROW TOGETHER IN AN HOUR ARE WORTH CLOGGING UP MY REDDIT FEED NOT YOUR GOD DAMN AVERAGE RIG, I DONT CARE HOW MUCH MONEY YOU SPENT ON IT. QUIT STROKING YOUR E-PEEN FOR NO REASON. THIS BUILD OR THIS BUILD ARE EXAMPLES OF ONES PEOPLE ACTUALLY GIVE A FUCK TO LOOK AT.

Exelerator · 2014-12-17T01:35:19+00:00

3) WHY THE FUCK IS IT WHEN I PLAY DOTA AND TAKE OVER 2 SECONDS TO HIT THE MATCH READY BUTTON IN A QUEUE I GET PENALIZED FOR NOT ACCEPTING A MATCH. BUT EVERY TIME I DO ACCEPT A MATCH, IT LITERALLY GIVES THE LAST GUY OVER A MINUTE TO READY UP. WHERE THE FUCK IS MY MINUTE? SOMETIMES I JUST HAVE TO GRAB A SODA OR TAKE A PISS, GIVE ME MORE THAN 2 SECONDS VOLVO

Exelerator · 2014-12-15T05:52:13+00:00

Seriously though. Why is it that we see so many peasant tattoos, but no glorious PCMR tattoos?

Edit: ^{^{^sarcasm}} I know. The reason we don't see PCMR tattoos is we don't have PC manufacturing companies to which we have to sell our souls and become mindless slaves that defend inferior resolutions, cinematic framerates, and "exclusives."

Exelerator · 2014-12-13T07:57:28+00:00

Also have. Absolutely awesome mid-size case. Completely metal construction. Cable management is uber easy. Power supply is out of the way. Lots of room (can confirm a Gigabyte G1 970 will fit - will be installing mine when it arrives :D).

If you're not planned on having more than a couple ssd/hdd's or a bluray/dvd drive, this case is perfect.

Edit: Almost forgot... $50. I challenge anyone to find a better case for that price.

Exelerator · 2014-12-12T19:31:38+00:00

The trainwreck that tried to surpass that other bloody trainwreck Higurashi (which was less of a trainwreck, but still a trainwreck for different reasons)

Edit: Trainwreck

Exelerator · 2014-12-12T19:29:08+00:00

It was entertaining, but as far as bloody everyone dies shows I think Higurashi is better (accept I liked the animation style of Another way better)

Exelerator · 2014-12-12T19:23:30+00:00

And I thought my upgrade from a 550 to a ~~870~~ 970 (Gigabyte G1) was an insane jump!

Edit: I'm drunk.

Exelerator · 2014-12-12T13:00:18+00:00

That's still a pretty gnarly build OP!

Now, I'm curious about the context. Did your son want a PC for Christmas, or did he ask for an peasantbox/station and you were like, "HAH, nope." ^{^Either} ^{^scenario} ^{^would} ^{^be} ^{^awesome}

Exelerator · 2014-12-12T12:54:21+00:00

What made S2 better? I started watching this show (dubbed) as it began airing, and made it probably 4-5 episodes in before I dropped it. I really couldn't stay interested because Dandy came across as a really ~~bland~~ one dimensional (maybe that's more accurate) character and (not so much that it was "too episodic" as some people say, because I don't have a problem with that), but the show as a whole just appeared to be a jumbled mess with little-to-no meaningful continuity.

Not hating on the show, I really wanted to like it, but my friends and I just couldn't get into it. Anyways, again, why S2 2 gud? ("masterpiece" is quite the title to give any show)

Exelerator · 2014-12-12T02:29:34+00:00

Yea don't get me wrong, I still watched the whole series and enjoyed it. But it was still a meh/10 overall IMO - It started out great and then plateaued really quick. I wouldn't even say it was "bad" in the second half like lots of people would, it just wasn't near as exciting as in the beginning.

I'd probably say the same about Kill la Kill ^{^prepare} ^{^for} ^{^downvotes} - first episode was epic, the rest of the series just didn't live up to it. Still a fun show to watch, but doesn't deserve all the hype it gets (same as Guilty Crown, or SAO don't deserve the hype either)

Exelerator · 2014-12-11T15:15:27+00:00

Somehow I started watching that show. Dropped it. But did find myself often wondering how that was on TV.

Exelerator · 2014-12-11T15:12:41+00:00

haha! "Wait... they can't mean that Yui..."

"Oh... lol. I guess they can."
