    English Dubbed My Hero Academia Season 4 Trailer

    in Media Discussion

    haha well I don't really like bnha that much, superhero stuff has always been cringy to me, but just as with opm I'll be watching the fourth season because the animation and music is good and how could I otherwise argue with all the bnha fans when it's time for the yearly anime awards?

    Seriously though, it'll be interesting to see where they take the story from here. I have not read the manga for obvious reasons, though I do have an idea of where things are heading. Maybe the League of Villains will actually have Shigaraki be a major impactful enemy in this season as they totally blew all opportunities with the joke of a villain from last season that was All For One. Maybe they'll dump him and mr beak guy is the next threat.

    I don't watch in dubs so this trailer might not be as relevant for me but I haven't seen the japanese one yet anyway. By the way, Invisible Girl is my favorite character we have seen so far. Bakugo is my least favorite :p sorry op. no wait, my least favorite is Mineta.

    Oh! And I hope this season will have great OPs and EDs too as that's one of the things I actually enjoy about the series. Got quite a few of them on Spotify, in fact.

    I mean I really like the Kaze no Tani no Nausicaä movie, but as for series Romeo no Aoi Sora is one of my favorites. As you might be able to tell I really like adventure.

    Kakegurui

    I've already posted too much about this but I don't get what people like about this show. It's so bad. If you want battle of wits anime there are others that are a million times better. Kakegurui is just a fanservice show with psycho lesbians.

    Anyway, my favorite anime of the year would probably be A Place Further Than the Universe. For this upcoming season I had hopes for Boogiepop but it looks like the first two episodes were pretty lame. Maybe Shield Hero can deliver.. if not I still got Slime.

    So then how can they have the same temperature o.O? It's like a random group of people going to a party but wearing the exact same shirt even though there is no communication of any sort between them!

    This reminds me of quantum entanglement. Einstein's theory that entangled particles are given properties based on predetermined conditions has been proven false. The theory that two particles can - on their own - communicate instantly, faster than the speed of light, seems really strange to me. I had this thought that if over 70% of the universe is what we call dark energy, it must have a purpose. Maybe it's one big blob of energy that senses everything that happens in the universe and somehow tells everything how to behave, like forcing an entangled particle to have the opposite property of the other. I have no idea what I'm talking about but spitting out stupid thoughts usually gives me the most interesting answers, lol.

    Disliked Anime and Why?

    Death Note. The two main characters are basically perfect.

    No they are not. L is good at what he does but that's about it. Light is smart and has a good appearance. There's quite a lot of negative things to say about both of them.

    On 10/21/2018 at 2:47 PM, Kyoshi said:

    Constantly one-upping each other because they are just the smartest people in the world.

    They are not the smartest people in the world. They did say L is the best detective, that doesn't make him the smartest in the world. Even if he was, I don't see how that'd be a problem. Would be pretty logical for such a person to be smart. Light is either a socio- or psychopath. Charming people, being manipulative and thinking logically is what they do. Even if the series pushes this to the extreme, it's to make the fiction more interesting. It's not like his brain is a perfect computer unable to make any mistakes, if it was it wouldn't have ended like it did. 

    On 10/21/2018 at 2:47 PM, Kyoshi said:

    These two perfect beacons of intelligence also happen to live within walking distance of each other in Japan

    Wrong again. L contacts the police force in the area after looking at killing statistics and because the events started there. He then moves to the area after confirming his suspicions.

    On 10/21/2018 at 2:47 PM, Kyoshi said:

    because they also go to the exact same school

    They didn't just happen to go to the same school, L doesn't even go to school. He had been suspicious of Light all along, he went to Light's school to see his reaction and to keep an eye on him.

    On 10/21/2018 at 2:47 PM, Kyoshi said:

    out of absolutely nowhere, the detective character straight up points at the other one and says: "If I die within the next few days, I will make sure everyone knows that you are the killer." even though he is WORKING WITH HIM TO FIND SAID KILLER.

    Again, it's obviously not out of nowhere as we have been told throughout the entire series that L suspects Light but is unable to gain any proof. He put himself in that situation to analyze how Light is thinking and get whatever information he can about him. They literally said this in the episode. Of course he would tell Light that they shall assume he is the killer if L drops dead. He's telling him this to see his reaction. Nobody knows who L is and L had the theory that Kira needs a face to kill, so it seems pretty logical to me to assume Light as the Killer if L just happens to die when he tells Light it's him. He's putting his life on the line to catch Kira, which he also literally says in the series. 

    On 10/21/2018 at 2:47 PM, Kyoshi said:

    Why would he convict him to such an extreme level?

    Because of the killing times he suspects Kira might be a student, and when this suspicion is noted by the police, the killings change. As L puts it himself: "As soon as we suspected that Kira was a student the timing of the killings changed as if to contradict our theory. Does this mean that Kira knows what the police know?" Kira also killed criminals charged with murder, some whose information hasn't even been made public, also indicating he has access to files from the police. Kira was obviously smart. So, put the pieces together and they are looking for a smart student in the same prefecture with possible connections to the police. Light was one of the people being spied on by the agents and as Raye Penber died, Light became one of the top suspects.

    It sounds like you didn't even pay attention to the show. Were you on facebook while watching or something?

    So for the popular series I don't like:

    Kakegurui. The people in this anime are crazy to the point where it gets stupid. They are crazy just for the point of being crazy, and for some reason, everyone but the main guy is evil. The anime also tries to do some brain games but unlike Death Note, nothing makes any sense, most of it is BS and it's predictable because we know the protagonist will always win. I would have been fine with this if they gave us detailed explanations to how, but as stated before, the reasons why she is winning is usually bs.

    Kantai Collection. Cute characters and all, I get that the games are really popular but the anime was pretty boring, bad animation quality, not much personality to the characters and the whole thing is just an inferior version of Strike Witches. Which is saying a lot because strike witches is flying panties the anime. Only good thing about KC is poi.

    Re:Zero. I like almost everything with the anime but I can't stand it because of the stupid annoying main character.

    Attack on Titan. Mostly because, well, it's just boring. The pacing is one of the worst I've ever seen in an anime, I almost fall asleep, and that's coming from someone who binged Mahoutsukai no Yome. I haven't read the manga but it feels like the author doesn't know the basics of storytelling. It leaves us with too many loose ends without giving us any reason to why we should care about the new sub-plots being brought up. It feels like it doesn't know what it wants its story to be and that the writer was just making shit up as he wrote. I don't have a problem with early info that is used later on in the show. In fact, I love stuff like that. It's just the way the show does it is really bad, and it never succeeds to grab my attention to the plot, mostly because they don't have a clear objective. Attack on Titan also fails miserably to establish a connection between the viewer and its characters. Most of the characters are really boring and poorly written, Mikasa feels like a robot just there to be cool and guard Eren. Eren is unbearingly annoying, whiny and one dimensional. Armin... what is his purpose anyway? It's a shame because the setting and animation is really good.

    Hellsing Ultimate. It's actually a pretty well made anime but I just thought the story was boring. Or at least the way they presented it.

    What key on the keyboard do you hate most?

    in General Discussion

    N and D, because my keyboard won't recognize when I press these keys sometimes and it's so annoying. Might have to clean it or something. I also hate the [ and ] keys, because on nordic keyboard layouts you have to press Alt gr to use them, and the Adobe programs require you to press these keys for certain shortcuts.. but pressing altgr at the same time causes them to not work.. so I have to change the shortcuts.

    Something Chaotic This Way Come

    in Throne Room

    Oh look at that, reintroducing chaos to the forums. That sure was a long time ago! Welcome back, it's nice to see people you know return and I'm gonna be honest, I kind of missed those silly discord gifs in your canterlot posts. I mean, not that I've hung round here enough lately to notice, but at least I can pretend that I have :derp:

    What is outside of our known universe?

    in General Discussion

    This is the kind of question I used to wake up in the middle of the night and ask my mom when I was little. Beside the obvious answer, more universe, do I think the universe is infinite? I don't know what to think. I would say no, but at the same time it is very difficult for us to comprehend what "nothing" really is.

    Physicists of mlpf, correct me if I'm wrong, but if time moves faster the further away you are from mass and the universe isn't infinite, wouldn't that mean either a) time is instant at the border of the universe, meaning that it expands at infinite speed, meaning that it's all a paradox and the universe is indeed infinite or b) We should all scrap the concept of space and time and start thinking in spacetime, which would mean spacetime doesn't exist at the border of the universe or c) I'm an idiot?

    Either way I think these questions won't be completely answered as we're using our own made-up laws to study the universe.
