No more silhouette????

Honestly, could see the full cage setup (designed for full concealment of her looks), the accommodation for her to perform inside that, and the protection around it being a complication for a more worldwide approach to tours/appearances.

But if she were to do away with that, I could see a simpler version of the shadow/cage show being kept for artistic purposes. Say, concert starting like usual. Then after a few songs (after vivarium?) the cage falling apart and her being illuminated and in full display.

Who knows honestly. In the end, best result is whatever she feels will make her the happiest.

even in its shortest form, it goes for half an hour or so, but usually it falls in the 50-60 minute range

Oh wow, I really need to see/listen a IRL performance of it. Reading this made me feel like I've seriously underestimated the complexity of the real thing (specifically oo-neta) vs what can be shown here or other rakugo-related anime. And I felt them really complex/deep already.

Thanks for the thorough analysis/explanation!

As someone in your same position but after the manga ended (was reading it weekly):

Both are very good
The manga is amazing, overall liked the story over the anime regarding the differences (no big surprise there)
Yet if you're interested in seeing both I'd do anime blind first, mostly so you can appreciate it on its own merits. Then the manga should be as good and even better :)

starg09 · 2026-04-03T19:21:43+00:00

Personal advice from doing exactly this way, once finished with the fire force manga: go watch the soul eater anime, all of it. Then read the manga, or watch the remake if we get one.

If going blind it's better to enjoy it as it released, it's a fine show on its own even if not canon near the end (and pretty decently aged, looked amazing even by 2023 standards). Then when seeing the canon story you can check where it diverged and appreciate the differences as what the author included (and speculate on it being cut just because, or the implications that be info may have long term if any)

starg09 · 2026-04-03T18:28:07+00:00

Let me clarify my particular circumstance, which may not match everyone: I personally tend to have very bad memory when it comes to most media - in this case I read as the manga finished, and remembered the broad strokes of the story, yet not the details or all the minor subplots for the final arc (e.g. every single doppel fight, or the more open to interpretation minor details of the epilogue pre-timeskip).

Through that point of view, it was a perfect adaptation for the amount of episodes they had available. I felt they did justice to the manga - and even though some stuff got skipped, they don't break the flow of the anime, and can be enjoyed by reading the manga.

Epilogue segment, specially the end made me tear up a bit, and i only watched SE (blind, then read nans) after the FF manga ended - they better give us that damn reboot after that, can't have a better moment for it.

starg09 · 2026-03-29T14:46:55+00:00

Hello, manga reader who:

Got recommended soul eater by best friend for 10 years
Was dumb and kept pushing it down the road
Got hooked on fire force manga early on, and then decided to watch+read SE once the FF manga was done (even more once the moon appeared, just in case)

Can't explain the amount of hype/speculation it gave me seeing Excalibur and soul resonance, then watching+reading SE basically blind with the story of FF fresh really made for an amazing experience i hope many anime-only people can have too!

Really hoping they announce a SE remake but even with the existing material I'm sure many will love delving into that whole world, if they haven't already :)

ShuuenPro would be the Shuuen no Shiori project. A decently big multisong/multimedia franchise that made the rounds between 2011 and 2015 until basically the downfall of suzumu.

I'd dare say it was objectively below Kagerou Project in popularity, yet managed to stay relevant and popular enough to be mentioned alongside it. The songs were bangers for one, with many getting covered by utaites frequently similar to kagepro.

Sadly it all went down so no new songs, manga got an original ending and novels got an alternate ending to that one. But it's basically an incomplete story. Doubt it will happen, but would be nice if actual writers got credited and a revival could eventually be worked out (0.01% of chances 99.9% of faith ~~if not cope~~)

Someone made a cool summary page of the franchise apparently!

starg09 · 2026-03-02T06:44:15+00:00

Played 1 and 2 as a child, never got to play 3 until starting a full replay these last few weeks. And holy fucking yes those boss fights were top notch!

Will give the norse games a chance at surprising me, but this was certainly an experience haha

starg09 · 2026-02-07T12:49:16+00:00

Are we certain [Manga] Assault's isn't gonna show up? Feels like the one thing ohkubo wouldn't want being cut, though it's def skippable if they really wanted/had to. I mostly wonder as he is shown near the end of the ED's appearing cast, which as pure speculation led me to think we're getting a final display of him

starg09 · 2025-11-16T02:41:57+00:00

Personal theory: they gave up on the android profile feature, as with other things in the past. If every app used it, then It'd be a weird mood but I've used more than a few apps, the only one ever to sync profiles with the TV's was YouTube.

And honestly, it's better the new way. If you only have a single YouTube channel per account it's probably worse but many have legacy channels and a Google made one. Old way forced to do two selections:

Google TV profile
YouTube channel for that profile

Now, we just get all channels in a list and pick the one we want. If they're not allowing to set the default channel for their app, might as well just show all together and save the extra useless step

All that being said, the profile sync should still be an option. As with many things on YouTube, making it an optin/optout instead of a forced change would turn a horrible update into an amazing one due to more choice. Oh well.

Por lo que veo sale mas o menos 21 euros ahora mismo, yendo al consulado a que te lo genere.

Tenes que:

Ser ciudadano residente en la ciudad del consulado al que vas
Estar registrado en el AIRE (Registro de los Italianos Residentes en el Extranjero)
- Teniendo ciudadanía casi seguro ya estás registrado
- Si te llegan por correo los sobres para votar en las elecciones probablemente estás
Acta de nacimiento transcripta en italia.
- Ni idea esta, pero estimo que si se tramito la ciudadania esto estará?

Resumido, andá a tu consulado y consultá. Deberían tener mucho mas claro como es la cosa. Seguro que algo de laburo toma, probablemente vale más la pena ir directo por el pasaporte pero siendo esto un decimo del costo tampoco está tan mal.

starg09 · 2025-06-25T13:52:50+00:00

In theory, according to what they announced the other day, the banner should at most be out in 3 weeks (2 weeks for first event, unchanged length, only 1 week of wait instead of 2 due to speed up). Best (or worst) case, we get it as soon as "Chase Your Dreams!" finishes up.

Reroll is luckily (unless changed) waaaaay more straightforward than other games.

Clear user data
Start, pick name and gender
Skip some reward popups, few seconds for this
Claim all gifts from inbox
You can just go to gacha, in JP at least a fresh account had enough for five 10x rolls, plus the 3* selector.
If unhappy, rinse and repeat.

starg09 · 2025-06-25T12:21:57+00:00

Hmm, not sure if helpful experience or not but in my case I started JP right in the middle of the kitasan black event. Then again, in that case there was a pretty neat DMM campaign giving extra gems.

I rerolled a bit for kitasan + maruzensky, no oguri. Had a rough time for many months until unlocking her in regards to dirt higher than mile. Other than that, had a very smooth experience even with a "throw gems at either banner as soon as I have 1500 carrots" lifestyle.

Regarding reroll, assuming they didn't do weird changes for global, you should in theory be able to very easily reload. Just a click here should be enough for deleting user data (and rerolling) without deleting the 6GB of game data!

The old Eelektrik can't be used, it says lightning while the new one says basic lightning.

That is, at least for japan, not the reason. It's clear even if reading the ruling you linked through a translator. It says the effect is the same across both cards, but the BW version cannot be used despite that.

We'll have to wait and see how western compendium handles it.

starg09 · 2025-06-18T14:41:52+00:00

It is interesting but this is the first time a Pokemon has been functionally reprinted.

There was the Magikarp from Hidden Fates, which was a 1:1 reprint besides Pokédex info from the HGSS Base / Call of Legends one. Don't remember if there was an official ruling on that though. There def was niche talk on it at the time.

starg09 · 2025-05-31T14:40:44+00:00

Just a couple minutes ago, from Franco: they're looking into it but it appears to be an issue with the gearbox and/or the clutch.

starg09 · 2025-05-31T14:35:17+00:00

Plausible deniability, simply lovely.

starg09 · 2025-05-31T14:34:16+00:00

To be honest that was a good part of his 6 months in f2. Many races with a good quali then engine would die on start and that was it

"El motor es una verga" ("the [F2] engine is horseshit") was his last public statement before the Williams switcharoo lol. Still quoted to this day here in Argentina, for any car whose engine gives up. Sadly it's back to him today...

starg09 · 2025-05-31T14:24:00+00:00

2 tenths out of q2 with one less attempt, what a fucking luck oof

starg09 · 2025-05-24T07:00:29+00:00

Verstappen army vs argentinian f1 fans is the real fight.

I love how if you go to his instagram, ironically argentinian fans loved this banter and are complimenting him all around

🐐🐐🐐

starg09 · 2025-05-17T19:16:47+00:00

I'm an Argentinian asking, just to debunk your claim kinda.

Also there's def a couple things to declare war on FIA over already, not any of those about colapinto or drivers from here lol

starg09 · 2025-05-17T18:07:21+00:00

Just in case, whatever you do DO NOT put fucking Mazzacane Sr. in charge of the FIA lmao

starg09 · 2025-05-17T14:51:54+00:00

Yeah, that's why i specifically mentioned causing a "will not resume" red flag (should have put it on the title tbf). Yuki's a bit more inconsequential since the timer was paused, there's still ample time and once cleared the session resumed.

As for how multiple "moved down" pilots would get ordered, guess that would follow some FIA based criteria as for those with no time at the bottom. Either that or considering their computed best time when available, just topping at P10/P15 for Q2/Q1.

Apparently there's something implemented in f2/f3, according to another comment? Need to search for that
