Yandere Simulator is the best.

'nuff said.

I'd say Yanderes are damn scary~. :x

Indeed.

That's why Yandere Simulator is so great. Example video.

Yep. Too bad Senpai still not notice me, even though the other girls had been disposed of. I even disposed of the boys too!

[Atlannia]

You're right, at that point he definitely should have noticed something.

Indeed. It can be somewhat frustrating being the only person at school with him but still losing to the orange-haired rival under the tree at the front.

It is kind of fun massacring everyone, though. As well as just picking them all off one by one over the course of the week.

Is he an asexual Senpai?

Indeed. What more frustrating is that we cannot dispose the orange-haired rival.

I like massacring them with one of those small weapons.

[Atlannia]

Watching Baka no Test again.

Nice.

I continue to watch ufotable's Fate/Stay night (I really should catch up on the last couple of episodes), World Trigger (a kind of scifi/fantasy thing with unusual aliens and sometimes superpowers and awesome energy weapons), and occasionally I'll catch an episode of Fairy Tail. Not much else going on in my anime life, though I've been considering that I should start watching Bleach again, considering it recently got added to Netflix ( ). Not right now, though; I should wait until one of my current series ends.

Oh yeah I've been really enjoying World Trigger, I love how strategic and unpredictable the fights are. I couldn't get into Fairy Tail though.

Shock Topic for you all

What if Anime died out in 5 years time? (clicky, clicky, linky, linky) I think the shocking part about this, is that I found myself agreeing with him, but that I've had the same discussion in my mind before

I can't see it. Like the guy said, anime is too big to fail so quickly.

In other news, Shokugeki no Soma is amazing. Best thing to watch around dinnertime, and it's funny as hell IMO.

"Too big to fail" has received too many bitch slaps from reality to comfort me anymore. While I can't imagine it collapsing in 5, 50 or 500 years I've learned life rarely sync's with what you think.

Thanks much, I'll check it out. I've been having laughs with Golden Time, Oregairu & Nisekoi

Anime isn't a physical thing, like a ship or a not!moon, the US's economy can also be put in physical terms. Anime, the idea, won't be disappearing anytime soon. It's not like more people riding the Titanic could have saved it, but more people enjoying anime can save it, if it were in trouble.

[Atlannia]

I think it's true that the industry the way it is now is unsutainable. It's barely profitable even when they treat their employees like dirt. It's becoming less and less relevant to mainstream audiences and relying mroe on niche audiences and superfans but to appeal to them it becomes even less appealing to the mainstream. Animation has always been hideously expensive unless you do it really cheaply and poorly, it's easy to see the anime industry transitioning into something like the Western animation industry. THe shonen and kid stuff isn't going anywhere cause there'll always be kids to watch it and buy merchandise. But long form, expensively animated adult orientated stuff could easily disappear, being replaced by shorter form stuff that relies on humour and doesn't need to be as flashy to be entertaining.

So Japanese animation in general is almost certainly not going anywhere, but the stuff that's relaly unique to anime and that makes it compelling to me is probably in a more precarious position than people think.

Well when you put it like that....

... Shit.

[Atlannia]

It's just there's a reason there isn't really an analouge to the anime industry elsewhere, it's really hard to make profitable. I mean can you imagine if the Marvel movies were all made with the understanding that most people wouldn't carea bout them and most of the revenue would come from hardcore comicbook fans goint to multiple viewings and buying box set blue rays and merchandise adn stuff. . I'm not a buisness person by any means so I'm no doubt simplifying things a great deal. I am certain the future of the industry looks significantly different to what it is now. Maybe good different, maybe not so good different. If you're someone who watches anime but isn't really into manga and light novels and stuff it might be a good time to cultivate that stuff since it's a hell of a lot cheaper to make and is viable as an indie only thing, so that's not going aywhere for a while.

.... So uh... I finally got around to watching Durarara, really good, I loved Baccano but for some reason put this one off for ages.

I've still not gotten around to watching Durarara nor Baccano. They are on my (infinitely long) list, however.

... Honestly, now that I think about my list, even if the anime industry did die out, the amount of content already out there would probably be enough to satisfy me until the end of my days.

[The Grey Wolf]

Unfortunately, I'm unable to play it.

Gameplay looks wunderbar though.

Why not? D:

It downloads as a RAR file, and I have no idea how to open it.

My sister showed me updates with teachers, poisoning, and suicides. Looks like a blast.

Probably. On the bright side, many nations can replace Japan, although not to the same level as Japan's Golden Age of Animation.

Use WinRAR to open it.

EDIT: As Mirakai said, 7Zip is good, and better, as it's free to use forever. Unlike WinRAR.

Just use 7zip or WinRAR.

What the others said.

And I managed to make it work on a Mac, even though technically it wasn't designed to work on this platform. Of course, I have little idea how I did it (I spent about an hour downloading various applications and clicking buttons, but I'm no computer technician).

I'm a book person (Could live in a library book person) and I find it hard to read the manga after I watch the anime. It feels, kinda of lackluster in comparison.

Yeah, right. Anime is more popular then ever, when you consider the millions of fans out of Japan. And I've grown tired of this endless drivel about how "all modern anime is sh*t" and only stuff from at least five years ago is worth watching. That's BS. The ratio of sh*t to good anime hasn't changed since the foundation of the industry, let alone now that animation techniques are unmatched. Of course we're going to "feel like we've seen this before", there just isn't an unlimited amount of concepts and ideas to be had. That doesn't make everything the same, let alone mediocre. People like that see similarities and recycling everywhere because they're looking for them.

Also, why should anyone listen to Anno Hideaki on this topic? He loathes the anime fanbase. He's psychologically unstable. He's made that evidently clear both in his works and in his statements. Why should he be considered trustworthy about the state of the anime industry? It's like asking Michel Houellebecq about the state of France. We all know what he's going to say about it, and that it won't be good, ever. Even if the anime industry were in full bloom, effortlessly supported the entire economy of Japan and provided fifty million well-paid jobs a year, he'd complain about it.



On a more light-hearted topic, has anyone been watching Danna ga nani wo itteiru ka wakaranai ken (I can't understand what my husband is saying)? If you liked it, you should try the author's (Cool Kyoushinsa) other manga. I particularly like Ojojojo.

You're probably going to miss the best arcs ...
I tend to like the manga better in most cases. Then again, I need reading more than air.

Fullmetal Alchemist is as same as its anime adaptation.

I do hope you're talking about Brotherhood
