    Got an odd question from a project I'm working on. What was the earliest fighter to use a barrier system (pin-point or otherwise) and did it have a heavy armour version? (like the OWL or tornado armour)

    If their insistent on releasing the dub and sub at the same time, maybe. But other services have gotten near semi-dubs running currently. Worst case is that the dub would be a few weeks, not months behind. Also if your co-producing the series you could make it a requirement to get a translated script. Considering their issue with keeping viewships it would be best to do these as weekly series, dropping episodes like they do everywhere else but the US, then a few months later drop the dubs as 'new' episodes. That gets the series a new cycle as then it goes in the sub vs dub conversation or at least how the dub VAs did the characters justice or not. And Netflix has done sub only anime before so it wouldn't be odd in the slightest.

    Still shows as in stock. The promo code is invalid after 02/02/2020, but you can still get the blu ray.

    True, but might be an interesting watch depending on what they are doing. Will depend on when it is though.
  5. Focslain
    Same, ok so might as well keep them, though I do have a spare code.

    Guess I wasn't specific enough, sorry. What I'm wondering is what the prize is. If it's tickets to an event, which it seems to be, then I can just send my codes to someone that has a better chance of getting to the event then me.
  7. Focslain
    Same with Frontier apparently.

    So I got an email talking about a promo code for ordering the blu-ray. Anyone know exactly what it's for and if they are transferable?

    Feels like the old "Once bitten, twice afraid" since Discovery was such a departure from the prior treks and the previews of Picard looking like more of the same and it's raising flags. Picard has a few things I'm interested in so if given the chance I'll watch it. Will it keep my attention is something different and honestly not hard. However Discovery did manage that in its pilot, sooo. Honestly 99% of this is based on speculation, trailers and other publicity. Best to wait for the series to actually drop (01/23/20) before making a final opinion.

    So finished Fire Force over the weekend. The fights against the White Clad were up and down. Worse being the Tamaki/Arsenal fight, the rest had nice mechanics and the Shrina/Sho fight was a classic shoenen end battle. At least there was some closure on the fire that started Shrina's journey. There are also quite a few hooks for another season which would be nice if there is one later down the road. Other then the group's selection and the two on my personal list. I do need to find a nice talky dubbed anime to play while I work on my many^uptenth modeling projects.

    Akira is a treat. She gets better as the series goes on. Minor Spoiler, but Minoru does give her what for eventually.

    So the weekly group has made it's selections for the season: My Hero Academia (continuing) - the raid arc is just about done, if not over. The fights were really good, especially against Overload. OP meets OP in a fight OPM would be proud of. Isekai Quartet 2 - So Shield Hero has been added to the collection. The groups introduction was meh. From the looks their actually side characters for this since Noifumi and I'm guessing Ralphtalia are in Class one. The main cast is Class two, though Puck and Chomsuke were added for reasons... Also if Good Smile isn't already involved in this series they should. It's a literal commercial for their Nenodroid series as now that I have a few, the characters look exactly like their dolls. Magica Modoka Side Story - Only two episodes in, but seems like this takes place pre-Modoka god mode. Seems to be shaping up to be a nice addition to the series as it has all the look and feel of the original series. No Gun Life - This one was suggested to me all last season. Glad to start it finally. It is a cyberpunk noir series with a FMA:Brotherhood mixed in. BOFURI - Seems this is going to be a light-hearted SAO, which is good. Will report back one Maple gets her party together as that will be the make or break point. Personally I'm going to be following Nekopara and Interspieces Reviewers. Nekopara - This is looking like a chapter of the VN (non-eroge version). Cute cat-girls doing cute maid/cat things. Simple enough. Interspieces Reviewers - Oh boy.. so the general premise is we are following two adventurers and their angel companion as they rate the love making skills of fantasy creatures. That's the pitch and while this should be a hentai, it's not. Like Monster Musume, my head was turned by the artwork, but I'm staying for the mechanics. Seriously the review segments are the best part as they are varied and make sense from a pure logical view. I'll have more later, what to make sure some of this is going to be part of the series and not just a one night stand.

    So after this I'm adding this series to my watchlist. I need a neat short comedy.
  14. Focslain
    Little of column A, little of column B? Best guess is like another series, Symphonagear, that that phrase has some context, but is just to sound cool. The gear activation phrases for example use words from a few ancient languages, but are mostly just to sound melodic.

    So over the holiday I watched Magical Sempai and started Fire Force. Magical Sempai was as advertised, a cute slice of life with plenty of fan service. Was neat that they explained a few of the tricks between Assistant-kun and the chemistry club. Not a bad way to waste an afternoon. I'm only half way through Fire Force, giving me lots of Soul Eater vibes, which is good because I enjoyed that series and the fights here are really pretty. Only real complaint is Tamaki, her lecher lure seems like they were trying really hard to make her the focus of the fan service to the point of annoyance.

    It will be online the day of release because that is how the internet works. Granted I ordered more then one disc since I have a few friends that were interested in this.

    In Bob's defense, he has been working that that video for the better part of a year. However kajnrig had it right:

    So does anyone else see New Caprica when they show the exterior shots of the drift colony? Or that just me?

    Actually only JUNNA and Minori came over and did three songs as part of a large Idol concert. IIRC they weren't even introduced as Wulkure and they didn't use any Macross imagery either while the other idol groups were there in full. If Flying Dog wants to promote Walkure here in the states they need to licence to Spotify, iTunes, or other music streaming services. You can get their albums real easy now if you know they exist.

    Welp, at least I already budgeted for it.

    Earth Cultists. At least so far. I'm going to do a double feature at the end of the week to finish this season since I know what is coming and like to see it in one shot.
  22. Focslain
    Going to hold off on Azur Lane and binge it later. Having a hard time keeping up with my personal series due to other projects and the holiday visits from the parents. Still sad it seems that LoGH is not going to call the earth cultist terraist, but considering their actions later in the series it might be a little too on the nose. Going to hold off watching this week's episode until next week and finish the season in one shot.

    We kind of already have this in Atomic Blond and Anna, no real need to give a female badass agent an old brand.
  24. Focslain
    They did. Personally I don't have an issue with it, but I saw all of the reboot in english so it set the standard.
  25. Focslain
    You mean Wicket.
