Jesus Christ. Is Attack on Titan being serious? It can't be serious. We may be watching the best anime to come out in a long ass time. I don't remember the last time a show made my yell out loud and it did it several times.

@pollysmps: Well... I was able to solve the puzzle on that room in the first town, with the tetris blocks on the walls and a number in each. But nothing on the bell yet...

If you solved the boiler room puzzle by randomly doing things then you lost one big confirmation check on the number system.

The path to figuring out the numbers can be found in finding out the first few digits. I know of two ways that the game provides actual in game confirmation that you understand the first few numbers. After that the boiler room confirms a few more. The bell is the final test of breaking the numbers code. At the very least that's how I did it.

You'll want to play Fatal Frame 2. It's one of the best experiences you'll find in the horror genre. Playing alone in the dark is a given with horror games of course so you'll want to do that.

Am I the only one more annoyed by the fact that Tharja wears red apparently? That doesn't seem to fit her character at all.

Well, it is the color of blood. Either that or they just didn't have black in her size.

I dunno, isn't it a pretty common anime trope for females to have out-of-character beachwear?

The edited version seems more provocative to me.

Maybe i'm just a freak.

It would if we couldn't see her panties, but we can.

Yeah but I like to imagine that in the American version she's wearing a thong or something instead, because now I can. Thanks NOA!

Yes, it's a common trope to have anime girls with out of character beachwear. Yoko from Gurren Lagann barely wears anything in her normal clothes, but during the beach episode she actually covers up more and the rest of the characters pointed that out during the episode.

@golguin: If everything is as bad as you say it is why would your parents choose to raise a family in that neighborhood?

Why would anyone choose to live in a bad area? Are you being serious?

There's a difference between a bad area and this picture of hell you're trying to portray. There's is no way I would let my kids grow up in a neighborhood where people getting shot outside my front door was a common occurrence or if just being outside would make my kids terrified that anyone they looked at would shoot them. There is no reason to raise a family in that environment no matter how low your income is.

I see. If that's the case then why do people live in bad areas? You talk as if people always have a choice in choosing where to live.

You do always have a choice of where you live.

Have you ever considered the fact that those neighborhoods are lowincome for a reason?

I didn't know the concept of impoverished families was that hard to grasp.

Neither did I. I guess people who grew up with money can't comprehend a world where poor people exist. It must have been nice to grow up with so much money that the concept of "poor people" never even crosses your mind.

You have no idea about my background so don't make assumptions.

You always have a choice where you live. It doesn't mean moving to a posh neighborhood but it does mean moving your family somewhere where they're not terrified to be outside. Like I said earlier their is a big difference between a bad neighborhood and what you're describing. Not every low income neighborhood is a warzone.

You keep insisting that people do have a choice about where they live and yet you continue to fail to explain why people live in violent neighborhoods. If they truly had the choice to leave that terrible environment don't you think they would leave? I don't have any idea about your background, but your baffling comments leads me to believe you don't know what it's like to live poor and not have an option to move away. Here's a hint. I do know.

People continue to live in violent neighborhoods because they choose to live their and are unwilling to do what is necessary to find something better. If Oakland has zero neighborhoods for low income families that aren't war zones then get out of Oakland. I grew up poor but safe and happy because my mom wasn't about to raise us living in the middle of a gang battleground.

So they are unwilling to do what is necessary to find something better eh? What is this "necessary" thing you speak of? It sounds like you have the answer, but are unwilling to share the solution to solving this whole low income family problem.

Are you really that ignorant? Doing what is necessary means doing what is necessary to not raise your family in a warzone. There's no step by step guide to show people what to do and everyone's situation is different. The one constant is that there is always a solution. I'm not going to make assumptions about your family so how do you expect me to give you the answer? I'm pretty sure you don't want to get into why your family was stuck living where they were on some silly internet forum.

You're obviously implying that my family didn't do what was necessary to raise my sister and me in a different environment. Maybe my dad should have made more money so we could live in a safer area? Maybe he shouldn't have been born in Mexico and leave for the US with a grade school education because he was forced to work as a kid? I have no problem talking about my childhood and how my family lived in a single bedroom place because that was what they could afford.

I can't understand your insistence that families should simply do "what is necessary to not raise your family in a warzone." You make it sound so simple. I'm sorry that I can't find the simplicity in doing the necessary thing so I'd like you to explain it to me.

I'm not a Tiny Tina hater and I used to play AD&D when I was a kid so this sounds super fun.

@golguin: Indeed I did notice the changes in the new Attack on TItan episode. They also changed the emblem right at the beginning from wall Maria to wall Rose, neat little touches all around.

Yes. I've got some free crunchyroll action and I had to play each opening several times in HD to see the emblem and more frames on the wavy hair.

Anyone watch Eden of the East? I thought it was fairly good and endearing. Not the best anime I've seen but good.

By the way does anyone know if 5cm Per Second is on Netflix? I'm keen to watch it!

I like Eden of the East.

Also, have fun being all sad and depressed with 5 Centimeters Per Second! (I do believe it is on Netflix, but I'm not sure at all).

Yeah, Eden of the East was a great series! I actually haven't watched the films that wrapped everything up, though; I feel like I should...

eden of the east is fantastic and I have also not watched the films (though @cloudenvy says I should so I'll probably get on that at some point)

but i want to rewatch the series before doing that.

I saw Eden of the East on Netflix and I watched the movies. I don't know why people say the movies are bad.

Also, I haven't seen a new Attack on Titan op video posted so here is a Madoka one. Spoilers in the video for people who haven't seen the show. Also, did anyone notice that the opening in the 4th episode of Attack on Titans is different from the first episode? They made slight changes and updated their flowing hair.

@golguin: They move to the suburbs and chase all the white people out, haha.

You know that is more true than you can imagine. There used to be several areas in the city that people knew as "white areas" because there were more expensive homes there. They are now simply known as the "rich areas" because Mexicans moved in and the older white people didn't want to deal with that so they moved out.
