Like...if this were a less serious comedy anime, it'd be less shitty. But it's like a mech/war anime or something. Also, it was super popular for some reason. I just watched it and was cringed by it's disturbingly bad character art and mid tier animation. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsuujou Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 And yes, the characters actually always look like Lanky Kong in the show with their weirdly, uncharacteristically elongated toothpick limbs.

Sidewalk Surfboard Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 I know this is probably biased since I'm the local Chuck E. Cheese fan, but I find it rude when people label all Chuck E. Cheese's as dirty and gross. Ones in bad areas are, sure, but a lot of store owners try their best to take care of the store and make it as clean as possible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, giant robots, angst, war, shit like that. However, for some reason they had Clamp, the studio that does nothing but romance and romance comedy and magical girl, and is run by a group of women, and caters to a female audience, do the actual art and animation. Think about that... a studio that does female oriented anime doing a war mech anime. And as battlechill noted, Clamp is notorious for drawing ALL their characters with skinny-as-fuck bodies and noodle arms. Like, to the point where it's become a meme now. Besides the art I loved Geass because, first off, giant robots, but moreso because the main character is a evil genius that laughs like a madman while he crushes his enemies and overthrows the world. I can relate to that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrishaCat Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Tbh I don't really like Code Geass either, I just like its art (and most CLAMP things). Its one of the few anime I outright dropped. If the whole show were like its highschool episodes it'd be much more fun. I think it emphasizes action too much. I get bored during the action scenes, which shouldn't be happening. I should probably finish it just because of how famous it is though (and since its getting a new season). It wasn't terrible. I remember really liking Suzaku's character. I like those pure do-gooder characters in shows. Also its first OP is gr8 EDIT: Oh yeah, topic. I think Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories is one of the best KH games in the series and deserves more love than it gets. Card mechanics help add some extra strategy to the game.

When you have these weirdly drawn people next to these admittedly amazing machine designs engaged in a serious plot, it just significantly takes away from the whole thing for me. I can't appreciate it visually (I don't really care for the characters either honestly). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lopaw Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 I prefer the pro electron numbering system for discrete semiconductors rather then the US JEDEC one. Just because it's more discriptive. For all I know my two BC108s (aka silicon cans) I have would be 2N something's over in the US. In fact the equivalent everyday transistor I see in diagrams on US sites is called 2N2222, this one even has a Wikipedia page for it it's that common.

CreatorNerd Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Stop bringing up "minority" issues. A good portion of the United States (including my neighborhood) is full of multiple races, so no, you're not a minority.

Sidewalk Surfboard Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 I don't think it's transphobic to say that men have penises and women have vaginas. I've recently been seeing people go into bitch fits about this, but it's mostly true. It's not transphobic to say that most of the population with female genitals identify as female and that most with male genitals identify as male. Trans people are a minority, and some people seem to forget about that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MalletFace Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Modernist works were entirely perfect and reasonable reactions to everything happening at the time, and I can't wait to see how modern works are treated in a few centuries. Same with postmodern works. On top of that, modernist buildings and poems are amazing, and the only reason anybody hates them is because they know the building/poem could beat them up. 1 hour ago, Sidewalk Surfboard said: I don't think it's transphobic to say that men have penises and women have vaginas. 1 hour ago, Sidewalk Surfboard said: Trans people are a minority, and some people seem to forget about that.

I imagine some people are being oversensitive, but it's not surprising that phrasing like that is a volatile subject right now, even if the words aren't being used to directly shit on a trans person. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trans people are a minority, and some people seem to forget about that. Now, I don't really disagree with anything you're saying, but i have a question. If you know someone is a transgender, why would you tell them what sex has which genitals? Bonus question: What do you gain? Rarely does any sane person get mad at someone having an opinion, knowing a fact. It's sharing it that makes people angry. Always have a reason why. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When reffering to a genital specific issue, instead of saying, "Men, when your penis is.." say, "People with penises, when your penis is.." Its a lot like saying we shouldnt have disability ramps because people in wheelchairs are a minority. It *is* transphobic and it *is* a crappy thing to do.

Additionally or alternatively, it's not that hard to start off with "Your penis" or "Your vagina" entirely, because the people who don't have the specific parts mentioned are going to know right out of the gate that the statement doesn't apply to them.

I think it's more akin to saying "don't you hate it when your legs..." without taking into consideration that some people might not have legs. I can see how it would make trans people feel excluded, but I also think it's unfair to fault somebody for offhandedly implying that men typically have penises when trans issues probably hardly ever come up in their day-to-day lives. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xaende Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 I'll gladly address people by their preferred pronouns, but it isn't always obvious and guessing wrongly can be problematic. Calling a masculine cis woman "Sir" or an effeminate cis man "Ma'am", for instance, can be worse than wrongly calling an overweight woman pregnant. If you want me to refer to you as a particular gender, then you should at least be upfront about it or look the part. This may require some effort on the part of the trans person, but I think it's only fair. I'm not a mind-reader. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chester's, especially, is fucking insane. Their tenders are like, half a breast each, with amazing herb-spiced breading. I shit you not, you order a three piece and it's like 2+lbs. For $6. Krispy Krunchy has wonderful Cajun style tenders, though not as ridiculously meaty. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
