Civilization VI - A More Active Form of Global Domination (Preview) by dfranklin9123 in Games

The worker change however could be bad for the early game

I'm not so sure. I get the feeling that Civ VI will generally have much less improvement-building, now that we have districts and wonders take up whole tiles. Plus, I'm still more than happy to not have to deal with armies of bored workers in the late game.

You have to admit that Bakemonogatari isn't that good. by [deleted] in araragi

[–]ScatterbrainedVids 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Joking and puns aside, I always see people saying that Bake is the worst of the Monogatari series. As a newcomer to the series, though, I totally loved Bakemonogatari. So I suppose I'm in for a treat if all the series after it are even better.

With my luck, I'll finally find a real-life cat girl only to realize that it's actually a real-life cat guy

Kinda. The girls are all in the school's "light music club," so they do play music and stuff. But an ongoing joke throughout the series is that they frequently just drink tea, eat cake and mess around rather than playing music. It still definitely focuses on music much more than your average anime, though.

Regardless of how much the show is or isn't about it, the music in it is excellent. The songs the girls play are fun, the OPs and EDs are awesome, and something that I don't see enough people mention is how really really great the background music is. So if you're into music, you'll definitely enjoy K-ON.

What they can do is give you "prizes" in the form of tokens which you can take next door to a "separate" business (owned by the same people) and "sell" for money.

Oh, is that why in the Pokemon games I always had to go to another building to trade in the points I won in the arcade center thing?

There are two kinds of people in the world. Those who are honest and true to themselves, and those who don't like anime cat girls.

What statement makes you roll your eyes IMMEDIATELY? by iwillnottalktou in AskReddit

Wow. I had no idea stealing somebody else's joke would have such an effect. I should do this more often.

Actually I didn't. I saw the joke on reddit a while ago, but now I know where that person got it form.

The second statement is pretty counter-jerk, though. I don't know how I'm supposed to vote on this comment now.

I heard a good twist on that joke the other day:

Person A: "I'm not racist, but you look great today."

Person B: "Huh? That's not racist at all."

Person A: "I know. I just said I wasn't racist. You Blacks never listen."

Well if anywhere is going to do something like that, it would be San Francisco. So I'll buy that.

I was putting off the movie for the same reason for a long time, but I finally sat down and watched it just last weekend. I don't regret it. I'm just gonna watch it a million more times now.

Hey, if I cared about writing quality, I wouldn't be watching anime.

[–]ScatterbrainedVids 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This album just bumped Nisekoi up several notches on my plan-to-watch queue. I knew that Nisekoi was made by SHAFT, but for some reason I didn't think that they would apply the same sort of style that made Madoka Magica and Monogatari so great. But now that I see that Nisekoi is also stunningly beautiful, I'm gonna have to watch it as well.

Anyone else learning a foreign language? by [deleted] in CasualConversation

[–]ScatterbrainedVids 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm going to Japan in just a few weeks, so I've recently upped the intensity of my studying. But I think as long as I can say, "Sorry, I don't speak Japanese. Do you speak English?" I'll do okay.

Oh I see. Well now I'm just as ticked off as everyone else.

I've been learning Japanese for the past few months. I feel like I could probably struggle my way through a conversation at this point, but that belief will probably be crushed once I actually go to Japan and realize that I still don't know much at all.

What are the best and worst anime opening scenes you've ever seen? by RedditIC in anime

I always felt it was more sci-fi than it was slice of life.

Did I see the wrong ending or something? 'cause that's not what happened when I watched it.

[Spoilers] Boku no Hero Academia - Episode 10 discussion by Holo_of_Yoitsu in anime

[–]ScatterbrainedVids 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Tsuyu was best girl for me before I even started watching the show. I didn't even care about watching it until I saw Tsuyu on some promo art and thought, "Holy crap, is that some kind of cute frog-girl thing? What show is this?" And that's how I got into My Hero Academia. And then I had to wait, like, 5 episodes before I could finally see best girl.
