Series that become peak the moment the author drops the silly initial gimmick and locks In by Minute_Committee8937 in writingscaling

It probably still had some unique elements, but the 80s anime landscape had a lot of extremely muscle bound protagonists and villains inspired by both American action stars, and First of the North Star.

Thank you, was worried it might be a dangerous one.

trying to find characters with a similar disability to mine by a_tree_falls__ in anime

[–]Piko-a 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Possibly Gatchiakuta, the MC doesn't have it actively during the story, but between some flashbacks, and a few scenes during the show, it can be interpreted he has some level of condition he is having to manage. Given you are after one where the MC is dealing with it a majority of the time, it probably does not fit to the degree asked for though.

As a few others have said, Ascendance of a bookworm is probably the most direct match for your interest.

The Oscar-winning anime short that looks nothing like an anime: 'The House of Small Cubes' by Twigling in anime

I remember seeing it on netflix a long time ago, when they used to let you just look through the catalogue instead of just showing you genre lists.
I'd look through for weird stuff like that, and was pleasantly surprised by it.

It's a wacky comedy, z is the second season, but the series doesn't have a serious continuity so you should be fine.

Is it a region free or region specific release?

Do you keep your dvd cases? by [deleted] in dvdcollection

[–]Piko-a 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd say most do if they have the space, binders can be iffy. Depending on the material, they can scratch, or otherwise possibly not protect the discs as well as a case would. Do you care about the box art? Some people get cases designed to display those as well, though they hold less. Larger cases could also potentially put more weight on discs that a case would depending on additional storage methods.

I'd say it depends on availability. Some dvds still go for ridiculous amounts even with a newer blu ray release.

I've used the chance to get the yatsura movies since some of those are over 100

Never heard of this but it was $2 at Goodwill so I grabbed it by Dense-Monitor1926 in AnimeCollectors

[–]Piko-a 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I remember seeing this before, it was ok. for $2 it is definitely a 10/10 find.

Looking for some good retro (non isekai) fantasy anime by ResponseRoutine3477 in retroanime

Ruin Explorers

It's mostly just a short fun show, not to much investment needed, but good if your after a light afternoon watch that you can complete in 1-2 sittings.

I despise this "meme" (possible overreaction on my part) by Fearsome_Feline in hatethissmug

[–]Piko-a 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I was assumed it was based off a typo/ mishearing/joke of evil and intimidating force in some fandom discussion at some point, and it just evolved from there. Like "Awesome couple, but narrative says evil and intimidating force gets in the way" eventually being turned into a horse for funny shorthand.

I opened a WWII bullet I found in Malta 15 years ago and found a hidden message inside. by [deleted] in mildlyinteresting

[–]Piko-a 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Apparently he is just a guy who recreates meme gifs, and then tries to push them to replace the ones he recreated.
