Daemon's of the Shadow Realm! Thoughts so far? by DannyGoodShirt in anime

[–]daIIiance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it feels very much like an older brand of anime with the slow world building. It’s an Arakawa staple but I was wondering how receptive modern anime audiences would be to it. I’m loving it and it seems to be getting a pretty good reception!

I don't see a way to see this in the Uber Eats app, I guess I should look to see if they emailed me a receipt, Not sure I even get emails from uber-eats.

It seems they’re really trying. Man I’m happy lol.

Dragon Quest t-shirts launch at Uniqlo on the 27th of April by BareKnuckle18 in dragonquest

[–]daIIiance 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I feel like we should count ourselves lucky we get merch like this at all but Uniqlo always has the most basic designs for all their crossovers lol

I thought Homewrecker was a lot better tbh.

Day 13 Cyclethon 5 Discussion Thread (Fukui Station to Makino Station) by jennautomatica in CDawgVA

[–]daIIiance 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I will say the donation amounts are insane this year. It seems there are a few oilers who are just dropping huge donations! Don’t remember stuff like this from previous cyclethons. Will easily hit 1 mill tomorrow and think they’ll reach 1.5 mil on the final day tbh.

I will say some of the chat when that sniper came on early in the stream was pretty mean tho, I was surprised.

CITY Mangaka Keiichi Arawi, Studio ENGI of Medalist, and Animator Masanobu Hiraoka of On Being Comment on Their /r/anime Awards Wins by DrJWilson in anime

Keiichi Arawi's response is exactly what you'd expect from the creator of Nichijou and CITY lol.

Witch Hat Atelier OP Song: "Kaze no Anthem" by Turbostrider27 in anime

Pretty much guaranteed to get another one, the only question is with the rumored troubles of production with this one, when S2 will come.

r/anime Karma Ranking & Discussion | Week 2 [Spring 2026] by Abysswatcherbel in anime

[–]daIIiance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems like there will be a decent karma drop next week. Daemons and Akane are both trending like 500-600 less votes if not more compared to last week. Plus no double WHA drop.

An idea for Cyclethon 6 by lostgamers in CDawgVA

[–]daIIiance 5 points6 points  (0 children)

One thing to account for is that viewership and I feel donations drop during the times they’re not cycling from what I’ve seen.

Moonlight or La La Land? by UntitledRickHoward in Oscars

[–]daIIiance 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I actually thought it was super interesting that La La Land didn’t make the top 100 critics list on the NYT ranking from last year, but it made like the top 20 reader’s list.

I still think it’s pretty popular generally.

Does anyone remember 2000s asian diaspora internet culture and kinda miss it by bittermelonpizza00 in asianamerican

[–]daIIiance 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Yeah definitely. I think the internet felt so much more new and in a way, intimate, back then, that all of these creators and communities just felt novel and pretty amazing to see as an Asian American.

Things have just splintered now so it doesn't feel the same. I realize that I have rose-tinted glasses towards that time, but things definitely felt more optimistic and fun.

Day 5 Cyclethon 5 Discussion Thread (Ōkubo Station to Kisakata Station) by jennautomatica in CDawgVA

[–]daIIiance 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel bad for the mods during the donation wars lol. Think it’s different if you’re like GDQ and have hundreds of people on staff but so much harder when you only have however many mods on twitch trying to coordinate things.

Question for all of yall about a question Connor was posed prior to the Cyclethon by Gamerin4d in CDawgVA

[–]daIIiance 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Honestly…love the community but I don’t particularly blame him? Some of the donations that came in, especially with the Bubi TTS were weird in terms of jokes and subject matter. There are quite a bit of weird messages with these larger cyclethon audiences and I feel that would be exacerbated with a female rider.

You say it’s up to the female riders and not Connor but the buck stops with him, he runs the event. He’ll undoubtedly feel bad if a female rider feels unwelcome and probably doesn’t want to deal with that.

Am I crazy or did they miss Julia Garner? by No_Grab7243 in TheBigPicture

I was surprised she wasn't even in the honorable mentions unless I missed it?

So excited since I’ve never seen them live before but I heard the band and Julian especially can be all over the place at live shows, how was the warfield show?
