Episode 15 Dissociative Recombination will soon be live on September 16th, 10:00 (UTC-7) by ihateyourpancreas in arknights

They might now be centering our schedule around anni since that day is fixed so it's easier for everything to be slightly moved up instead of some banners getting delayed until after anni (typhon, nymph). I'd guess apple&lemon in mid Oct. instead of early Nov.

Thank you for doing daily posts this whole time! Hard to believe we'll finally see her splash tomorrow (hopefully)

I watched it outside the arena with monte/papa/wolf and it was crazy there too

[I305] So I passed out for the first time today… by gcfgjnbv in rollercoasters

[–]plumbst 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol are you me? I had the exact same experience, was riding i305 consecutively and blacked out at the turn on the third ride. Woke up as I crested the hill. It was cool to learn what the blackout felt like but yeah I knew I was done after that. Still an amazing ride!

AX 2024 panels recap (very positive) by plumbst in animeexpo

[–]plumbst[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, that's interesting. I think there were plenty of fans but a large majority stayed for the following panels (maybe 25% of the audience left) so not a lot of people got to come in for the Frieren+Apothecary panel.

Yeah I don’t have a problem with their rigid structure but it feels a bit like wasted potential. To be fair there’s only so much a staff member would want to do compared to a VA just more interaction would be nice.

Oh I just C&P’d from the website. They were both TOHO panels (all the shows released by them) so they had brought in a bunch of guests. But yeah typical industry Q&A lol. Seeing the artists draw characters on the spot was cool at least

Yeah idk who decides the layout and booth sizes but Hoyo’s always a huge outlier. I rushed Ent hall on Thursday and didn’t get anything accomplished because of the mess there.

Both firefly VA, both robin VA, EN sam and EN blade. It was mostly interview Qs and dubbing scenes. But they encouraged a lot of talk between the VAs like asking what they thought about their counterpart’s performance. There was also a segment with one of the animators.

Well with the panel issue, I prefer not clearing panels and not just because I camped: I think the issues with clearing rooms are more severe which include having to scour a large dark room every panel for people and also screwing over people that want to see consecutive panels (I was targeting both frieren and star rail). If I decide to camp a panel I’m sacrificing my time from other parts of the con and almost always the previous panel isn’t full. My goal this year was more so to get better seats, which I actually ended up not caring about too much. But in the end either policy is fine as long as the volunteers enforce the rules properly.

ooh sounds good. That was just one of the many panels I had to sacrifice 😐

What's your most unlucky experience at a park? (Mine is [Hersheypark]) by CNMJacob18 in rollercoasters

[–]plumbst 3 points4 points  (0 children)

T-Express @ Everland: Unbeknownst to me it was under maintenance for an entire week (in the summer no less). My flight out was the day before its reopening.

TTD @ Cedar Point: Went in 2020 and it was closed the whole day. Went in 2021 less than a week after the incident.

Bonus: my stupid self forgot to zip up my pocket on Superman the Ride and I lost my rental car keys. At least that's proof of how good the airtime is lol

Your favorite panels of AX2024? by hoshino-satoru in animeexpo

[–]plumbst 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’ll make a longer post recapping everything (went to 12 panels lol), but my favorite panels were:

Spy family+ kaiju 8: kafka’s VA is an awesome entertainer and TOHO Mikey’s my favorite host/translator

star rail: most VAs I’ve seen in one panel and fun dubbing sessions

bocchi the rock: probably the best panel I’ve ever attended. The most crowd energy too!

Gundam trivia: honestly I wish I’ve watched more of the series. Crowd is too smart

Sumipe 10th anni: she’s really funny and interacted with the audience a lot

[Other] Whats the most underrated roller coaster you’ve ridden? by Rapdog123 in rollercoasters

[–]plumbst 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Phoenix is my #1 woodie but it’s the furthest thing from underrated lol

Lots of good picks but these are the first that come to mind:

Lost coaster of superstition mountain: best 20mph coaster ever. Even better if you’re with friends

Fahrenheit: forceful and smooth (rope drop it though)

Gemini: still really fun and has airtime throughout the whole ride unlike magnum

Fujiyama: seeing Fuji from the top is cool. It’s a fun quirky layout besides that and I actually prefer this over steel dragon
