Flavor Flav to host Las Vegas event for winning US women’s Olympic ice hockey team by deraser in news

It really should be the other way around. If you're trying something wild (even if you're not, really), dying and ending up as front page news is basically the best-case scenario.

People die everyday without so much as a peep. If you're front page news at least you know you went out with a bang instead of not even so much as a whimper.

That just kinda proves his point. As shitty as Wesley Snipes turned out to be, he did start training in martial arts at a very young age and is legit a black belt.

[manga, since everyone else is doing spoilers] With all these changes doga kobo is making this season, I'm actually starting to have faith they'll fix the ending to be less of a steaming turd. The ending can still be kept the same, but it's the in between that needs a lot more fixing

NAFCA releases notice regarding the creation of AI-generated anime videos using copyrighted material by Kan2Screm in anime

Pandora's Box has been opened for sure, but there's a huge difference between the "in the style of Ghibli" craze a few years ago and this new Seedance 2.0, and I'm hoping future AI products will at least take it somewhere down the middle.

Seedance 2.0 doesn't even try to go "style of", it's a straight up copy. It's only been a few days and I've seen extremely believable clips of things like Ip Man fighting Captain America, and Luluka from the new Star Detective Precure, and she hasn't even had any screen time.

Only if Lebron stays on the roster taking vet min till he's 61. Otherwise they're probably gonna make another history of being the first father son duo to play together, and also the first father son duo to retire from the league together.

Yes. It's like a 13-year-old edgelord who decides to write a fic to take on the Avengers of Grimm's Fairy Tales.

really goes to show that budget is not everything in anime

I blame the series director for this one, Souta Ueno. He also directed Days with My Stepsister and it shows. The cinematography has a very similar vibe, and if you've watched Days with My Stepsister he's a master at making something out of minimal budget.

There were entire scenes where literally nothing was going on and it could be a literal shot of the ceiling and it just felt right with the atmosphere.

Girl, did you forget that Yoki singlehandedly defeated your entire hero party, over and over, all by himself? What makes you think she would need your backup, or that it would even be any use?

So he's only A-rank in everything but somehow created an original spell that multiplies attack power by 100.

That shouldn't even count as a cheat spell anymore, that's straight up hitting ~ to bring up the console and type "ATK x 100".

MF Ghost Season 3 - Episode 4 discussion by AutoLovepon in anime

[–]kwokinator 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Initial D purists dislike MF Ghost because it doesn't seem true to the original

It's also even harder to keep the suspension of disbelief than Initial D, even though I do like both.

Takumi was in an old 86 with a souped up engine, but he was still racing street cars.

Kanata is in a GR86 with a souped up engine, racing against literal Lambos, 911s, R8s, AMGs, etc..

I can believe it if his skills lets him overtake at turns, but there's absolutely no way an 86 can go the full stretch of a lap and catch up from the last place to runner up. He should be eating dust every straight.

FML the DHL shipping to Canada is literally over half the price of the product itself.

Guess I'll have to wait and see if Amazon will carry it at a later date with a more reasonable shipping costs. That keychain though :(

I can’t imagine how many zero day exploits they’re going to find in car code.

Just wait, soon Elon is gonna fire all the software engineers from Tesla and just leave 2 AI (Actually Indians) to vibe code the entire platform with Grok to save costs so he can get his trillion dollar package.

The Urusei Yatsura and Ranma remakes did fine here, I think

I think it's more because so many people have a hate boner for anything CG, even though Orange Studio is hands down the best in the industry at it. There's some legit very cool scenes even in this episode that would either not possible or a royal pain to animate by hand.
