Friend send me this recently.



Thought it'd be nice to share if any of you have ever seen Nichijou and at least one Fukumoto work (Akagi, Kaiji, Ten etc.)

Someone at r/HunterxHunter made a endless runner in Unity featuring Hisoka.

My thoughs: First Hisoka themed game I've seen, since ever, so props for that. I also liked the face he chosed for Hisoka. That way you know there won't be any confusion about what's going to happen when he catches who he's chasing (i feel sorry for that soul).

Besides, small and simple is the best place to start when it comes to game developing.

It happened guys, around 19:18 second in.

I found an anime, where someone said "What?" instead of "NANI?!?!"

Are you guys familiar with the voice actress Brianne Siddall?:  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brianne_Siddall I know her best as Jim Hawking from Outlaw Star. 

I never realized what an active talent she was because I haven't seen a whole lot of her other work and sometimes she didn't have a very big part. That's why I'm saddened and shocked to hear that she was in a really horrible accident.

This explains the hell she's still going through: https://www.youcaring.com/medical-fundraiser/in-desperate-need-for-temporary-medical-living-expenses-/329777#updates

This is just too sad and I hope one day she'll be back to living as normal of a life as possible.

Man...that's really sad. the video is awful as well. I really hope she gets better.

She has some loyal fans which is nice, I'm sure she'll be able to pull through with some help from everybody.

Man...you read Berserk thinking it's going to be a cool action-y manga about Guts killing everything with his massive sword to get revenge, but then you're sidetracked with some seriously sad backstory from every character.

Hell, Guts' Backstory is the point of the manga, it lasted 100 chapters or so, and it was really sad, especially when you really look at it.

It's a manga that makes you feel, that's for sure. I'm happy no one told me that beforehand though, I prefer going in with no prior knowledge.

Yup! Yup! Tons of violence, but it's not a mindless action manga by any means. Absolutely worth the read if you can handle the content and you even learn to love some of the side characters because they're given so much personality. The part where you learn how Guts got his mark hit me really hard ><

Oh yeah, I honestly can't wait to see how Guts will win. IF he will win.

But yeah, all side stories are great and I love reading them.

Spent the last three hours watching Sega Hard Girls, a short 11 minute 13 episode anime about humaized Sega consoles trying to graduate from an academy and the only way to do so is to earn 100 medals through random Sega games each episode consists of.

The episodes were fun, and I had some laughs from them. I really did enjoy it and honestly wouldn't mind a sequel of some sort with other consoles, such as the Master System, Genesis, Mega CD or 32x. Not sure how well it was in Japan to warrant a sequel, but I'm sure it was alright.

If you're a big fan of Sega like me, give it a watch.

...I think I'll re-read the Fake manga next weekend. It actually had a really good story in there amongst the yaois. I also appreciated that it wasn't a romance story where one person was super abusive and the other is a submissive push-over.

If I remember right, one of them is a little more passionate than the other, but nothing non-consensual or coerced ever happens. Just two gay/bi cops finding love while solving crimes/mysteries <3

In my ever longing search for anime, I have discovered a new Fall 2016 anime called Keijo.

"Kaminashi Nozomi (18) is an exceptional gymnast. So much so that colleges with some of the best gymnastic programs are trying to recruit her. Unfortunately for them, she has other plans. Due to her family being extremely poor, money is everything to her. That's why she wants to step into the world of "Keijo." "Keijo" is a type of gambling sport where girls stand on a small floating platform and compete against one another. The aim is to push the other contestant off of the platform into the water, but they are only allowed to use their butt or breasts to push the others off. Will Nozomi be able to compete in the intense world of "Keijo" and bring wealth and fortune for her family?"

It's honestly pretty trash, but I honestly don't mind. It's actually pretty funny because it's so bad, and the fighting actually has a budget, so imagine all the generic "M-MASAKA" and "NANI" but with Dead or Alive 2 Volleyball's gameplay.
