Tsukiko Tsutsukakushi is too adorable.

Hell yeah she is.

I started watching this show. Very interesting premise. You don't often get a character that's openly dirty minded in that school setting and have it be the main focus without the actual show going all in with nudity or whatever.

So Attack on Titan continues to be the hypest show in memory. I wont say anything about the episodes except that all the pieces seem to be coming together on the true nature of the titans. I might be wrong, but there were too many hints that couldn't be ignored.

Hi. I have a question regarding the online part of Dark Souls. I can't really wrap my head around the online function. I'm really looking into buying it, but I read in the IGN review (I know, lol) that at times it can be near impossible to advance without help from someone else. If that's the case, are people still playing it?

I have also tried to read up the humanity part, and still doesn't know what it's all about. Anyone care to explain?

Thanks

J

No its not near impossible. I did my first play though alone. You just need to be careful. And ya people still play it.

Humaniy is used to return to human form. You can only be summoned to other peoples world if your human. However in human form others can invade you and you can invade them. It also ups the drop rate of certain items.

You don't need to be human to be summoned. You only need to be human if you want to summon phantom or if you want to invade. If you are undead or human you can drop your white summon sign and go into someone else's world.

Had a good laugh rewatching this week's Attack on Titan with a spanish speaking friend of mine. Towards the end when Mikasa starts whining about "her home" my buddy was like, "Well yeah, it's mi casa." Only then did I realize her name is Mi Casa and now I'll never forget it. Her last name should've been Sukasa.

Wow, that is pretty funny. Have to wonder how many other names can be translated in to Spanish.

Quite a few number of them. I assume it's done on purpose. I speak Spanish so the Mi Casa thing popped out right away. You also have Mami from Madoka Magical and her name can either be "mom" or "hot girl" in Spanish speaking areas. Both works since she's technically the hot mother figure in the group.

Quite a few episodes across many shows that air "incomplete" where they are missing color, shading and other detail which appears in the retail release. Usually they aren't noticeable but this was bad.

Shading and color is just about in every show. As you said though, static CGI shot that's 10 seconds long while people are conversing is pretty bad.

Actually, it's worse than bad. It's about at the level where I actually get worried.

I didn't notice anything thanks to Mikasa being a boss all over the place.

Inspired by this thread I watched the first episode of Date A Live. I don't think I'll watch any more!

Also brought on by this thread: Oreimo which I'll soon be done with, and Railgun which I'll start after that. While I'm on anime I've been watching, before Oreimo I went through Toradora and liked it a lot. Progress through JoJo's is slow but steady.

As for Attack on Titan ep6, I liked it though I still think Mikasa's bland. Action scenes keep on being cool, though I found it hard to believe that Eren could stab guys that easily. And what was up with Mikasa's superhuman strength? I suppose with the spider-man equiment and near-immortal giants that's not what I should be taking issue with...Oh, I should mention that giant's running animation. Good stuff

To that I would say...There is nothing particular difficult about stabbing someone if they're caught off guard. If you're talking to some kid on the street and they suddenly stab you with a knife they've been hiding in their hand behind their back I don't think anyone would find that unbelievable. The other guy got caught by surprise with his makeshift spear. He lost when the other guy knew he was there. It all checks out.Mikasa activated some dormant power. There are titans walking around so I don't see why people can't have some powers too.

Okay, you got me watching Attack on Titan and Valvrave now. Watched both Episode Ones this morning. I liked Attack a bit more, but the ending to Valvrave got me interested.

I don't know about this Valvrave show, but I can tell you that Attack on Titan is the hypest thing I've seen in a long time.

Saw episode 6 of Attack on Titan. This show is producing Boss Characters at an alarming rate and I'm happy with that.

Off-topic: I too was banned yesterday...I'm not sure what I did either.

On-topic: Railgun S is getting "really real". Since Accelerator has "story armor" I can't imaging this is going to go well for 9982.

How is that Railgun show? I saw the opening for Railgun S and it looks interesting.

I generally talk to myself in a variety of situations even if there are people around. I talk a lot when I'm doing my graphic design work to think through an idea. It's a lot more productive than carrying on a monologue in my head in silence.

Video games are no exception.
