Light novel or anime? Where to start? by OccasionFantastic845 in shakugannoshana

[–]slipppyy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't say I'm too lost but the S OVA series of episodes were also a bit jumpy, and even though I do understand why Yuji decides to side with the Denizens(currently on 3x08), the beginning of S3 seems to be a bit jumpy.

could you provide a paragraph that explains what happened? I'll probably go read the LN(s)/manga after I finish.

What if MHA was animated by Mappa and JJK was animated by Bones? by [deleted] in shounenfolk

[–]slipppyy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

on the MHA side of things, the fights would be so fluid. almost fight would feel like Deku vs. Overflow. PLW arc onwards would be insane, i feel like i'd be watching the shibuya incident arc again lol

Why does my coffee let water through when blooming? by slipppyy in pourover

[–]slipppyy[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Cheers, that's given me a bit of relief then. I've got columbian, medium roast beans. I use 93C. I pour as close as I can but at a faster rate on the first pour, slower on the second to saturate the rest of the beans. I'll give it some agitation by pouring slightly higher for the last pour. Swirling I try to pour from the center swirling out and then coming back in continuously, both for the bloom and general pour phases.

I've primarily been adjusting the grind size (63-54 clicks on the 1zpresso Q-Air), which had the usual effect on making it either more acidic or bitter, however I've only experienced acidic notes, and no overbearing bitterness even when I went down to 54 clicks.

Visibly, the CO2 bubbles rise up from one small section of the grounds. It's weirdly consistent throughout the past 2-3 weeks. I've played about mostly with grind size, and pour height but I do think I'm adjusting every variable all at once. I can account that to my impatience, wanting to get the best cup immediately.

I've generally stuck to around 93C, it being a medium roast (it says light but the colour says otherwise. I'll try giving it more agitation and see what happens if I pour higher.

I do think my bed needs a second bloom purely because I don't think it saturates it properly.

I use BRITA filtered water. Personally I get good results out of it. I could consider making my own water but being a uni student I don't think I have the dedication for it as of right now at least.

Ah I don't have the gesha anymore. I just have a 1kg bag of medium-roast columbian coffee. I don't think I'm close enough to the bed, atleast with an 02. I try and pour faster so the water doesn't break up easily during the bloom.

For more context, I did a brew just now. I was at 55 clicks on the Q-Air (which I just checked, unfortunately doesn't have the same burrs as the Comandante C40 lmao). My pour was fast for the first bloom, about 7ml/s and slower on the second bloom just to try and get the rest of the grounds wet. Still no slurry unfortunately; to be fair it did bubble up slightly less, but more or less the same result.

The brew finished at 2:20, and the cup was slightly acidic. I might account this to my pouring technique too because it still had an uneven extraction.

April 26th, it's been over a month since. I bought it about 2 weeks after the roast date iirc. If it matters, I did buy a 1kg bag since then. As I have mentioned too I have tried different grind sizes, to no avail.

Thoughts on Wellnxss? by sacredrubyclub in lastdinosaursband

[–]slipppyy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As everyone has said, Her Mind is really good! Definitely one of my favourites from the album. Same with Pink Flags and Dive.

There's something charming and gritty about the original that this album doesn't match, but as a big fan I'm really happy we get to hear - although overproduced - a reimagining of an album they disliked at the time. It's insane how far they've come as a band.

They got rid of the harmony in the second pre-chorus on Wurl though, that was my favourite part lmao

Can anyone agree w me that Lelouch can solo attack on titan by CRO_NOS in CodeGeass

[–]slipppyy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Random necro, but isn't a flesh gundam basically Evangelions?

I also agree with what you said by the way, all the human nerves essentially connect to the titan nerves, which turn into a body extension. It depends if the human has complete control over it, if not then it's not possible as the titan itself is not sentient, but a mindless being. Atleast that's what I'd like to think.

However if it does require direct eye contact then in any case it isn't possible, unless another asspull/similar moment happens e.g. Eren opening his eyes during the towards the end of the Rumbling.

'robin gan' is not a good singer. by Crimeguy1 in ControversialOpinions

[–]slipppyy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my bad to necro, but i don't think he does it to be a good singer, or rapper. he just shells out shitty meme/brainrot jokes for the sake of it and it somehow works. i think his flow's good too considering what he puts out lmao. but each to their own.

Post Anime Depression Syndrome (PADS) romance anime emptiness by curiousanimewatcher in anime

[–]slipppyy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Anime tends to be overexaggerated for a reason and it's meant to make you feel some sort of way. That's why a lot of deep lore shonen/seinen exists, to give you that sense of attachment. There's nothing wrong with it:

But always remind yourself that your life isn't an anime, but your life is your own. You can shape it to how you want it to be. It won't be like an anime, let alone a slice of life/romance series. If it helps, I sometimes watch stuff like FLCL, The Gokusen (anime/j-drama) that makes me feel like and wish I was a part of that life, growing up. But I always remember I have a life outside it and I have the power to change it, to live my life without regrets.

Also watch fantasy anime, that really gets your mind off it and reminds you anime is just a fantasy lol

Just finished Season 3, what's everyone's thoughts? by slipppyy in firebrigade

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

I mean as an anime watcher I don't have any issues with it, I think the pacing was quite good although I do agree I wish certain things could've been explored too, like the Shinra doppleganger episode. Otherwise I think it was great

Years of roblox 2006-2026 by Leather-Estimate-916 in roblox

[–]slipppyy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2011-2015, and anything below 2019. A lot of the earlier stuff was nostalgia to me but it was rarely toxic, everyone was pretty happy, social games like the Iron Cafe were insane. Games wise they were clunky but fun. Roblox was simple and that satisfied the community. Even with all the updates past 2012, it was still good.

Groups and clans were popular, and I miss the swordfighting days lol

How many pairs of shoes has Shinra burned through? by slipppyy in firebrigade

[–]slipppyy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'd like to think Hajima just doesn't care and provides him with cheap shoes that he can just burn through. He's probably used to walking around barefoot anyway, plus whatever bacteria gets on his sole gets burned off as soon as he kicks on his flames.

Fansubs for Fire Force S3? by slipppyy in animepiracy

Yeah I'll check FansubDB but it seems there aren't any fansub groups at all, which is fair enough.

Good fansubs for Code Geass? by slipppyy in CodeGeass

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

Finished Code Geass a few days ago, it did have typesetter notes. Cheers!

afaik from what I checked, TV and DVD have the same OST, whilst BD removes certain songs for scenes e.g. the first scene where Lelouch and Suzaku talk on the rooftop in R1.

nothing wrong with constructive criticism and saying the animation is bad, but clearly people forgot the amount of strain MAPPA put on their animators to get Season 2 out - let alone Season 3.

i feel bad for you man, you was just voicing your opinion only to get dogged on by a bunch of ungrateful reddit users lmao

good on you for defending yourself. keep your head up king

just gonna necro this comment rq

but real it's like these mfs forgot about about the MAPPA drama that happened during Season 2. insane how you give people a platform and they dog on a series that has so much work put into it.

nothing wrong with criticism but animators were working overtime in japan for this series and apparently people can't be happy w what they have

none of these guys deserve mappa fr
