  1. 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.
  2. We kind of already have this in Atomic Blond and Anna, no real need to give a female badass agent an old brand.
  3. 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.
  4. I was debating on that one too, but funds at the time kept me from it. I believe either Crunchyroll or VRV Select has it for streaming though. It's a really good HD print. Watched it a while ago. Only issue is how short the series is, would love to see more of Rally and Mae's adventures.
  5. Add in some of the spin-off books and it could keep the season from getting too dull. But they haven't even announced a season 3 yet, so at least they went out with a bang if this movie is all we get.
  6. Honestly I'm ok with that. I watch Konosuba for the laughs, having a character growth is ok at a slog if the series is to go on for a while. Checked out Kandagawa Jetski Girls over the weekend. Got thru three eps before the censorship glare got to me. At least they went over the rules of the sport. Neat concept for a video game, using high power water guns to slow the jetski as well as ablative swimwear. I'll wait until the uncensored version drops in a few months to continue. Also started a rewatch of Gurren Lagann, good series for when your sick and just want to netflix and chill.
  7. Yes please, would love a kit of the stealth frigates from frontier/delta.
  8. Agreed, saw it tuesday. I'm up for a Kazuma/Megumin ship, there was hints over the last two seasons and this movie kind of topped it off. Speaking of odd relationships, buddy had us watch the Chunibyo OVAs and movie Take on Me. The movie was a good end to the series and I wish Yuta and Rika the best.
  9. Oh I knew that, heck Tom's entire squad was created for the movie. Just sad that the current version didn't touch on the interment issue. I'll still watch this once it hits streaming and add it to my collection once after the blu-ray drops.
  10. This might be the biggest hurtle, more so then HG. I did a quick check and Love Live! did get a US release, but AKB48 hasn't and those are the two series that have the music catalogs that would be closest to Macross.
  11. There was a romantic sub-plot between one of the american pilots, Tom Garth (Charlton Heston's son, in the movie) and a Japanese girl. First half of the movie gave a good amount of scenes about the Japanese treatment, including Heston visiting the girl and her family in the interment camp and later him going to the head MP to get her and her family released before they all ship out for the battle. It seems they got out cause she was waiting for Tom when the carriers returned to Pearl. I'm guessing there was little about how the Japanese-Americans were treated after the attack was in this version.
  12. So I was debating on seeing this in theaters. To be frank I'd really have liked this to just be an effects updated version of the old 1976 Midway. Can those that seen it at least confirm/deny if the inter-racial romance subplot from the '76 version was in this or did they puss out on it.
  13. Next season of Iseki Quartet hopefully should be good. If anything we'll get more of Ains and Tanya budding friendship and hopefully some softening up of Niofumi. $5 that Filo is the one that presses the button.
  14. So they are close to how patent trolls work. Ouch.
  15. Question on the first use. So has there been a case where a trademark was used in another country prior to it's use in the US? Or we looking at new territory here?
  16. So I'm placing Azur Lane on hold so I can get a few other projects done. Been keeping up on the reboot of LoGH, this season is going to be bloody. Got to see some of the power armour combat finally. Wasn't too thrilled with the suit designs, but at least a bit better then the deep diver-suits of the original. This is going to be a sad arc.
  17. And now a movie, Crunchyroll has it for streaming currently. Hopefully it gets another season. Movie Spoiler:
  18. Yeah, it's a wide hit/miss ratio in that game. Honestly since the Eclipse there hasn't been a ship that turned my head based on looks. Most are by function and that is due to the moderate amount of carriers they released a few years back. The Chimera is an old design, it was gifted to Lifers back when the game went F2P.
  19. Modified X-Gear, they are used in racing competitions according to the inserts.
  20. Since it seems they are starting to tap STO for ships, I'm waiting on the Eclipse class cruiser. That sleek stealth ship is my main in the game and would love a cheaper option to getting it in 3d.
  21. So while I was laid up sick I beinged out both Symphogear GX and AXZ. It's like someone combined Gurren Lagann with DBZ and added in some fanservice plus healthy yuri bait. The fights are good and I'm digging the armour designs, the vehicle combos were a nice addition. Stopped four eps into XV just because I wasted a day on the series and needed a break. Overall I'd say meh, I'm a little jaded to this kind of stuff and not seeing anything really new with this.
  22. No, it's them getting there money back. And I was wrong it was $100 US
  23. $215 was the NZ price. the US price was $120 and all 9K sold out in a day anyway.
