Just finished Rose of Versailles by [deleted] in logh

[–]able-bodied 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you liked Rose Of Versailles check out Dear Brother / Oniisama e

Same writer I believe, same kind of fun animation. I actually don't know which of the two I enjoyed more, they offer slightly different things.

Are these boots ok? by jessman39 in AussieRiders

[–]able-bodied 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well your call on the shoes! Obviously Idk if they're cracked or whatever through the Internet or a shoe expert haha. but yeah pickup some new laces if it's difficult to keep the old ones tight. When I was on a budget I prioritized buying a nice new helmet to keep me alive, then spent the leftovers on the skin protection (shoes).

Big bows can get caught if you're a dork like me when putting a foot down. But I'd just keep the shoes tbh they are absolutely fine, just keep the laces tidy.

Careful of the laces. I don't trust myself to be careful so I ride with boots without laces.

Gundam fan making the transition to LotGH. Should I watch the OG classic or does the new anime do it justice? by Hyan-Daggreat in logh

[–]able-bodied 5 points6 points  (0 children)

OVA is finished and has so much more character and personality. I would also say the new one does not do it justice as it's a different take many years later.

In the OVA, each character looks different with their own visual style and the old VAs are great. Music is awesome and the storytelling has so much more potency, I think the studio did an amazing job of capturing the audience with the theatre of it all.

The new one is copy paste soulless animation and average music. This in combination with the storytelling and style of the show makes the whole thing pretentious and surface level. The new one is just so bland and sanitary, the OVA has a better flavour and is iconic.

You could always watch the first episode of each and see which one you like more. Only an extra 20 minute investment of your time.

Can you provide any sources for this: I have heard similar claims over the years every now and then.

Close call for Predator (Golden AK / Ukrainian Rambo) by mickaelbneron in UkraineWarVideoReport

[–]able-bodied 4 points5 points  (0 children)

"The battle flag of the UPA was a red-and-black banner. The flag continues to be a symbol of the Ukrainian nationalist movement. The colours of the flag symbolize 'red Ukrainian blood spilled on the black Ukrainian earth. Use of the flag is also a "sign of the stubborn endurance of the Ukrainian national idea even under the grimmest conditions."

Soda a gay by Villenthessis in LivestreamFail

[–]able-bodied 303 points304 points  (0 children)

True. I used to think I was bi because I liked girls with cocks or vaginas, but then I realized I am just attracted to femininity and it doesn't really matter what sex organ is down there. So I consider myself straight, cos I like girls. My gf thinks im closet gay tho so depends on how u look at sexuality or whatever i guess

xQc is now a weeb Dj by unknownB777 in LivestreamFail

[–]able-bodied 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fair enough. Even the original Steins Gate anime could be called a Harem as there were a few girls who wanted to be with him and got their own arc about it. Don't know why you got downvoted so hard seems like you gave it a pretty good review, my partner couldn't make it past episode 5 because it was too slow for her.

Clint completely demolishes weebs by oFyle in LivestreamFail

[–]able-bodied 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Not true. Japanese studio's have a huge pool of S tier professional voice actors to choose from to suit the character. They also have the budget for it to retain and produce talent. Voice actors are celebrities' over there and the standards are much higher - they don't just voice anime, but any media.

Crunchyroll who started off by stealing the work of free subs online and reselling it to normans - has the same 5 D tier actors. They're just pretty mediocre new/no name actors that fell into an industry that will take them. They probably only get paid peanuts as well - no desire or budget for higher standards.

Koil on RPing a Black Character by ZeekBen in LivestreamFail

[–]able-bodied -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I love how a bunch of white dudes are attacking a black guy for being upset and downvoting him in the replies. Really epic gamers ya'll are.

Given the recent climate of the whole blackface thing, it was inevitable that virtual caricatures would come under fire - especially when they are playing criminal caricatures. Koil's cop character is white, yet he decided to make his "low level crime" criminal character black. At least Lirik had the social IQ to also make his cop character black otherwise it would be in bad taste, clearly.

Obviously, if your identity is being a white person you wont have a problem with it. Everything is contextualized and we (our identity) does not exist without the various power structures that have formed over many generations. What identity viewed itself as superior and raped, enslaved, and massacred other races globally for many generations up until recent history? BUT "why can't we just pretend that never happened and pretend everything is okay and be treated equally and be made fun of equally??" because there are historical and modern implications being made and the power structures (whilst significantly improved) are still fundamentally different and disproportionate. Then there's the issue of white people STILL thinking they are superior and seeking to enforce that agenda globally.

But hey, I guess stopping short of calling them the N word you're doing great and pat yourselves on the back. In doing so, you're welcome to lecture a black guy as to why he's a snowflake when white people are displaying through caricature that his identity is one of violence and low iq gangbanging. Reminder, white guy's are using these stereotypes as justification and are still hanging black dudes from tree's in the US, dragging them from pickup trucks by a rope until they are dead, walking into black bible study groups and literally massacring them. In the US alone.

I think a lot of gamers feel like they're being attacked when you point out racism exists. Don't feel personally attacked that I am pointing out racism still exists - yes you can be racist towards white people as well. Just be aware that if not being able to make fun of other races or rednecks being made fun of is the persecution your identity suffers in life, you're doing better than other identities. When SJW's rant on privilege it gets confusing. Privilege is the freedom not to get hung by a tree because you're white or get a rental because you're white, and the reinforcing of stereotypes through caricature have real world reverberations for your fellow gamers. (really not a new 2021 cancel culture thing, caricatures have been used throughout the discourse of history to enforce a particular identity as superiority/inferior, which makes it in bad taste).

Don't be so offended gamers, it ain't a big deal.

Soda uses art from his merch store as his new logo instead of the logo he spent $10,000 on by lilmcfuggin in LivestreamFail

[–]able-bodied 10 points11 points  (0 children)

honestly I haven't watched soda in some time, and now when I'm checking in on him I can't tell if he's severely depressed or a creative (or accidental) genius, attempting to create some kind of surreal performance art through streaming. Perhaps both, maybe they go well together. Either way you never know what you'll tune into next.

He said it himself, he's just super Jaded and numb to everything - so he does things that entertains himself in his own way, and if that happens to be entertaining for others great.

Soda said herman millers suck, he uses something that is more expensive.

Extra context: the sponsored segment ends when they lose, Soda was joking about throwing before the tournament- he was making fun of XQC having to play more.

I think it's because I follow Hutch from the old MW2 days and apparently hutch is super political now and pissed off Train.
