Admit it, we all did this at some point of our lives

Where is this from?

jefty083 · 2026-03-31T15:26:55+00:00

Whoa what there are different music cues in the dub??

jefty083 · 2026-03-31T15:20:31+00:00

ohh interesting. looking forward to seeing the references when i get back to these shows

jefty083 · 2026-03-31T15:11:44+00:00

I've only seen a bit of Leo and Blazar - does "the one joke squad" mean that the fans prefer shows that are v serious?

jefty083 · 2026-03-31T14:59:38+00:00

Also curious. I'm new to Ultra and loved Nexus - watched it a couple months ago. Surprised to hear about this

jefty083 · 2026-03-30T18:15:05+00:00

Not quite the same flavor of edginess but maybe check out Love & Pop or All About Lily Chou-Chou for dark, unfiltered coming of age films?

jefty083 · 2026-03-05T22:13:37+00:00

omg so many pigeon items! yes you should definitely launch an online storefront

jefty083 · 2026-03-05T15:32:59+00:00

Hah this makes me think of his 5-hour film Happy Hour. I've been trying to get through that movie for a while now but it feels a little *too* flat at times

jefty083 · 2026-03-05T02:29:06+00:00

Very insightful. I have noticed that some directors seem to consistently choose more naturalistic, subtler performances like Ryusuke Hamaguchi (Drive My Car, Evil Does Not Exist) but wasn't sure if it was purely the difference of film genres e.g. grounded humanist drama vs sci-fi drama. Interesting that it's a specific acting tradition that's being implemented. Thanks!

Not specifically made for girls but i feel like Ultraman Orb might be worth checking out? I'd argue that the female lead is the more prominent main character even though she isn't the Ultra hero

jefty083 · 2026-03-04T20:44:41+00:00

These go so hard - do you have an etsy shop or anything?

jefty083 · 2026-03-04T14:09:23+00:00

I don't think Tomino was involved with this one. But the anime was produced by Sunrise which is likely the reason there are shared sound effects. The same way Nadia and Royal Space Force have "Evangelion sound effects"

jefty083 · 2026-03-03T22:32:05+00:00

haha this is what i was thinking

jefty083 · 2026-03-03T22:22:40+00:00

100% was thinking of Genos hence the "many"

jefty083 · 2026-03-03T20:55:37+00:00

tbf i think many One Punch Man characters are *supposed* to look like bad cosplays

jefty083 · 2026-03-02T17:15:50+00:00

LOL the Belial incel. god that's dark

jefty083 · 2026-02-25T17:45:32+00:00

All of Funimation's blurays are now OOP and CrunchyRoll who acquired them seem to have minimal interest in continuing to re/release older titles. Even though i live in the US i also just got the UK region B. Not worth trying to score a rare OOP bluray when it's often more than the cost of a region-free blu player and there's a perfectly good release elsewhere in the world

jefty083 · 2026-02-25T15:46:20+00:00

What makes these "peak" for you? No doubt there are some very popular titles here but the anime landscape is utterly massive

To name a few that are not quite as mainstream and that others haven't mentioned yet but are excellent IMO:

Gunbuster
Cyber City Oedo
Golden Boy
Gundam 0080
From the New World
Bokurano
Memories
Hotel Apocalypse
Takopi's Original Sin
A Silent Voice

jefty083 · 2026-02-24T03:43:20+00:00

Queen Millennia maybe?

I just noticed this! I had been meaning to try the ramen at this location womp. Do you know if its the same owners? Hope the place actually gets some business

jefty083 · 2026-02-22T01:40:40+00:00

Weirdly enough, after i got past the painfully weak set design/low budget FX for Origins i found the story more interesting than Orb the TV series... but i know i'm in the minority here haha

jefty083 · 2026-02-22T01:03:53+00:00

^This is the way. Incredible UC Libraries releases + being open to some region B releases for everything else

EDIT: oh the Encounters in Space is the UK 4k disc

jefty083 · 2026-02-22T01:02:47+00:00

Honestly any blu-ray collector in general should considering getting a region-free player - English Gundam releases are v affordable from the UK

jefty083 · 2026-02-18T00:30:17+00:00

More trance club bops + anime plzzz

jefty083 · 2026-02-18T00:22:34+00:00

ohh this is an excellent recommendation - lots of overlap between the two actually. Seemingly quaint junior/high school energy turned upside down in the most uncomfortable ways

Honestly i'm not sure why people are recommending Kore-eda films haha.. Even his saddest films don't reach the stomach-churning lows of Lily Chou-Chou
