more like a cold war i guess

[Veef]

Well you're certainly not going to find any answers in the first OVA they put out.

Which may or may not be about buying swimsuits.

[Oxymoron]

How do they intend to fit a swimsuit on a Pz IV ?

[Zablorg]

curious about an ova i looked up google news for girls und panzer

and there are no sequel plans ):<

humbug

[Infinity Biscuit]

Honestly I prefer when shows that have really weird and silly aspects like that don't ever comment on them. They're just part of life there and it's the norm for them, and if we want to figure out what's going on we can piece stuff together or just make up our own stuff.

[Zablorg]

i initially thought it was a disappointing move but actually the notion that they're blowing ridiculous amounts of money to make their schools prestigious is pretty cool

it brings to mind some kind of international prestige race

and raises the question of how other countries are going about it

airships?

space stations?

Just like with Upotte

Oh my sweet pun spouting M-14.

[Oxymoron]

So, I just watched the first episode of Upotte.

Well, lemme just say that "gun porn" is taking a on a whole new meaning.

[Veef]

M14 is a semi-automatic pun delivery system.

i need an adult

[Zablorg]

so a little while back i watched maybe a dozen or so episodes of Darker Than Black

and it is in my opinion pretty bad, lacking engaging story-telling for two principal reasons:

it drops vague hints of ~creepy worldbuilding~ stuff, which we never seem to know enough about to appreciate. It reeks of cheap "hey you know about that CLANDESTINE ORGANIZATION we work for" "but of course that is why we need not discuss it" audience hooking

and despite this assurance of weird behind-the-scenes stuff going on that would do well with some kind of driven plot, we never seem to make any progress between each two-episode arc. they are virtually interchangable, at least to the extent that I've watched it, and it hasn't held my interest sufficiently to continue.

the criticism of never-addressed clues about the broader world could be applied to something like Evangelion, but Eva holds a distinction in my mind for at least having some kind of plot momentum. bleh

[Manus Dei]

DTB is the most disappointing yoko kanno anime

at least brain powerd was entertainingly bizarre

[Infinity Biscuit]

Hey zabs you still watching From the New World?

[Zablorg]

hell yeah i am

gonna watch latest episode now

also you guys ford suggested i watch Hyouka and

and i just love it so much

[Zablorg]

okay i watched the episode

maria what did you do

[F.J. Prefect, Esq]

You know I support Squealer in principle but fuck Squealer :<

[Zablorg]

hey ford i don't mean to demand your time or otherwise be weird

but did you send me anything in our Hyouka discussion later in the evening that didn't go through?

i only ask because SB's messaging system is high as balls

[Oxymoron]

high as balls

That expression is pretty funny considering the body parts it's referencing have a reputation for dropping or hanging quite low in general.

[RyanThunder]

I think its mostly just borne out of escalation. "High as fuck" is overused so now we've moved on to balls in the hopes that it's different and thus hopefully retains its intensity for a bit. (it won't)
