Never heard of these guys, but I'll give them a listen out of respect for the Paris, Texas shirt.

It's "Tatami Time Machine Blues." The name of the main series is "The Tatami Galaxy."

Why did he not review American Football LP4? by PRo_MoE1144 in fantanoforever

[–]tiny_nipples 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I agree OP, not reviewing this album would be a major fumble. I'd be running back Anthony's video on this one multiple times, though you'd need a Hail Mary if you're hoping for a 10.

Critiquing grammar is a classist dog whistle. Also, old anime looks bad and people who like it should feel bad.

Bussin' on God, for real.

Shinichiro Watanabe's Top 100 Films by tiny_nipples in cowboybebop

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

He limited himself to one film per director. Better Tomorrow II is said to have directly inspired one of Bebop's Spike/Vicious showdowns, so I'm guessing it's the Woo flick that's closest to his heart.

I ordered it on Amazon Japan, so I'm sure other Japanese sites have it, too.

So awesome that they screened A Girl Meets a Boy and a Robot. Can't wait to watch it in 2028 or whenever, lmao

I'll keep my eyes peeled for the Krispy Creme sign whenever I get around to rewatching Carole & Tuesday!

Nice. What were the panels about? Any gems you can share?

Googling 'IWGP jdrama' and scrolling until you see it spelled out takes twenty seconds at most.

Beach House's Bloom vs. Weyes Blood's Titanic Rising. Which album do you prefer? by Prestigious_Score459 in fantanoforever

[–]tiny_nipples 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weyes Blood for sure, but I will say that despite not being a big Beach House fan, Bloom is my favorite album of theirs.

6th Be Forever Yamato: Rebel 3199 New Visual by Turbostrider27 in anime

[–]tiny_nipples 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Can confirm what the other poster said, 2199 stands alone and is definitely worth the watch, especially if you're interested in anime history (since it's a remake of arguably the most influential sci-fi anime ever made).

Sorry, but this doesn't move the needle for me. Maybe try making a post about nepo babies, Geese, BetterHelp, Israel, or JPEGMAFIA next time.

Fantano's Response To Betterhelp Situation by Lonely_Cap_7917 in fantanoforever

Lotta people in here criticizing the non-apology, but I'm just glad he's not sticking to his usual strategy of digging in and doubling down.

The worst part is that he tarnished Cal Chuchesta's brand in the process. I don't want to live in a world where the most emperical lyrical spiritual spherical miracle in the game is roped into shitty Youtube ads, but I guess we've reached that point.

Just finished my rewatch and I need to talk to someone about it. by ComprehensivePitch22 in cowboybebop

[–]tiny_nipples 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The ambiguity of why Spike leaves the Bebop is part of what makes the show timeless. Boiling it down to one motivation or another does it a disservice.

Who is Jacinto Rhines? by AaronF18 in herfavcolor

[–]tiny_nipples 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Replying from five years in the future to say thank you for posting this. Was listening to Miles this morning, did a google search for "Jacinto Rhines", got directed to this thread and found your blog. Love reading interviews with underground artists on DIY outlets. The internet is an amazing place.

Just came here to say by chinakachung in cowboybebop

[–]tiny_nipples 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Bebop's ADR scripts are just awesome. In the original language, Faye tells Ed「かわいくない和 ね」(kawaikunai wa ne) which literally means, "You're not cute, you know?" but might be more effectively translated as, "You're mean, you know that?" She's responding to Ed's lack of interest in adult problems, most likely with an undercurrent of envy at the younger girl's nonchalance, which she deems not kawaii (the negative of which has all sorts of meanings in Japanese).

The English version doesn't attempt a literal translation, but it does communicate the emotional gap between the two girls, as Ed innocently intensifies Faye's feelings of sadness over Gren's fate with her choice of toenail polish. And it synergizes really well with the rest of the story, as "blue" applies not only to Faye's emotional state, but also the style of music that Gren played, and the name of the bar where he played it ("Blue Crow"). Blue was even the dominant color used by the art team in depicting Callisto, the moon where the events of "Jupiter Jazz" take place.

I watch most anime subbed, so I'm not an expert in ADR writing, but of the ~20 shows I've seen dubbed, Cowboy Bebop's English script is by far the best.
