Is it just me of when they make these changes they're not all for the better: some are neutral or for the worse.

Summer 2012 Anime Season Preview by actipt17in anime

[–]Galap 3 points4 points ago

I'd normally be down on his negativity, but unfortunately for some reason this season is looking particularly weak to me too.

Usually there's like 1-2 things that I really want to watch. Here... not really. Maybe sword art? Maybe I'll try that 'dark' body swap thing for wierdness?

Well ok, one thing I really want to see is the new Code Geass (Akito the Exiled, not Nunnaly in Wonderland. Just to be clear). But according to him that won't be for a little while.

Most anti-climactic ending to an anime? by hayashirice911in anime

[–]Galap 5 points6 points ago

It's not that the very end was particularly anticlimactic, but IMO Death Note kind of petered out as it went on.

If you could raid one anime characters wardrobe, whose would it be? by SussanStyleTreadin anime

Karasu from Noein. That black cape is the most badass thing ever.

FMA vs Brotherhood: Which did you prefer? by RockHardRetardin anime

[–]Galap 1 point2 points ago

I liked both quite a bit, and for a while wasn't sure which I liked better. Ultimately I decided that it was the original. It was slightly deeper, had that slightly creepy, slightly menacing atmosphere at times, and seemed to be less 'shonen jumpy' than brotherhood.

Have you ever felt that you lost your passion about anime as you get older or watched ''to many shows''? by xectorin anime

[–]Galap 1 point2 points ago

There is stuff out there for you, it's just hard to find. What's popular now in terms of sales and stuff? Cat Planet Cuties and Fairy Tail. That kind of thing. Now I'm not completely hating on those shows, but I'm saying that neither of them are really all that interesting to me and don't really bring anything new to the table.

Now this loss of passion you talk about has happened to me really hard with american films and TV. Last night I saw "the dictator", and IMO it was BAD. Not only was it just incredibly stupid, but I felt like I'd seen that kind of thing a million times before. I would have walked out in like 5 minutes if it weren't for the fact that I was with my friends, and when it ended and I left, I couldn't help think to myself, "You know what, I'm done with this." with respect to american film.

Does that mean i'm actually done with it? not really. I'll probably see things much less, but to be honest, it's just an effect of Sturgeon's Law, which states that to any one person, most things out there are going to be bad.

Basically one just has to look in the right places to find something that's worth it. something that's different.

Ignore all the advice of what's popular on r/anime, since that seems to not be what you're looking for. Find something obscure, something weird. There's so much anime that's just a big nothing, but also quite a bit that's SO creative, and I find that my personal tastes are uncorrelated with popularity. Some popular things I love, some I don't. Some unpopular things I love, some I don't. Now I'm looking for mostly unpopular ones, since I think I've bascially seen all the popular ones that apeal to me. I think you should do that same.

Basically, the more you've seen, the harder you have to look for things that appeal to you. That's the bottom line. Maybe be more picky.

IAmA 9-1-1 Telecommunicator. AMA by whatisyouremergencyin IAmA

When I was little and my family were almost killed by CO. It's a really bad one, because it basically makes you not able to do anything. After flopping around like dying fish for like an hour my mom eventually thought of calling 911 and managed to say she "couldn't think and couldn't move", which was enough to get firemen rescuers to show up in gas masks. I was always wondering how they seemed to figure out it was that kind of problem from so little information. Did the person on the line probably recognize that it was CO symptoms from just that?

the wheelchair handle. On top, the perspective makes it look like it's curving behind her, but on bottom it's curving towards her in the plane of her face.

From someone who also generally doesn't like CG, I personally think these are pretty well integrated.

Key anime's character design fixed. by domperin anime

[–]Galap 2 points3 points ago

Oh god.

Genesis Survivor Gaiarth. A 92 OVA that's probably really hard to find (the VHS cover spelled it 'surviver' to give perspective on the care put into that release).

It's actually pretty good though. Post apocalyptic lightsabers and robotic sorcery.
