    The manga of s-CRY-ed goes in such a different direction it's not even the same story.

    I'm pretty sure I remember a scene in the manga where Scheris literally fucks Ryuho while using her Alter. And it showed EVERYTHING.

    I have such a weird fondness for S-cry-ed, though the anime's ending left me cold. I hear the manga goes a different way, so at least there's that.

    The manga from what I've heard is just plain strange.

    Scryed was an anime first and someone wrote the manga later presumably while very high on a number of substances.

    They have no relation to each other, including any similarities.

    Supposedly but there’s no third party confirmation, only Good Smile’s own statement of disassociation issued in the wake of reporting on it.

    Shangri-La Frotnier contiunes to both be an excellent manga, and an excellent anime.

    I also kinda want to do an effort writeup on people's responses to the recent GGC tournament arc, and the fact that the main character (mild spoilers)
    Looses
    in it. It's really interesting to see the reactions.

    So, a week or so ago the news of people's digital Funimation purchases being erased was discussed.

    And some folks mentioned what anime they own physically.

    I've got a small shelf of the stuff, and I've barely watched any of it more than once, but back in the early 00s buying DVDs from Borders (RIP) was the only way I knew how to find the stuff other than what cartoon network picked up.

    Let's see, there's...
    Moribito, Guardian of the Spirit set
    Patlabor complete blu-ray collection (my most recent acquisition from just a year or two ago, still need to watch most of it)
    Just the second half box set of Gurren Lagan
    Robotech the Macross Saga
    Redline
    Slayers box set with all the tv series episodes of Slayers, Slayers Next and Slayers Try, sadly none of the movies, OVAs or the 00s new seasons.
    Cowboy Bebop the Movie
    Full Metal Panic Fumoffu set
    Full Metal Panic (1st season) set
    Excel Saga set
    disks 2 and 3 of Ghost on the Shell Stand Alone Complex, missing the first disk and any later ones
    Neon Genesis Evangelion disks 1-8, I think that's the whole TV series? Not sure all the disks are in the cases.
    The End of Evangelion

    The only anime I own physically is a copy of Final Fantasy Unlimited Disc 1. I don't even know why I have it or remember where I got it from.

    I have some manga volumes but they've been in a box since I moved to this apartment six years ago and honestly will probably not make it to wherever I live next because I'm not into their series anymore.

    I buy from Xbox's videos very occasionally, mainly when the physical release is outrageously pricy or not available for some reason. Chainsaw Man was $5 for the season, which seemed worthwhile even with a sub to a streaming service that carries it still.

    I buy physical media exclusively, because screw the fickle license holders and screw the enshitification of streaming platforms. It's more than a little frustrating when this anime thread is mostly spoilers for things I'll either never see or won't see for years, but it's worth it in the long run. And I've come to peace on falling all the way out of the loop when physical media goes away too.

    Catching up on Dangers in my Heart, is the girl being some sort of actor on the side just a wish fulfillment trope that shows up a lot in these school romance anime to show she's so great or is there actually a big thing with japanese high schoolers working part time as actors?

    my animu collection's kinda weird cos my older brother was always the one buying anime so i didn't really start building my personal collection until relatively recently (thanks, right stuf sales and rip, right stuf), my roommate also has a chunk of stuff that i don't really feel the need to double up on

    So, at AniMenagerie we've had a few actors pop up A LOT over our three years of co-watching anime (and other programming).

    Lisa Ortiz is probably at the top of that Hall of Fame, but this past week we had another actor join that esteemed club.

    He just keeps showing up! It's wild how many anime he did before finding real success!

    But he got into the Hall of Fame club due to a one episode appearance on Babylon 5 we watched last week.

    Shangri-La Frotnier contiunes to both be an excellent manga, and an excellent anime.

    I also kinda want to do an effort writeup on people's responses to the recent GGC tournament arc, and the fact that the main character (mild spoilers)
    Looses
    in it. It's really interesting to see the reactions.

    Four episodes is pretty good for a Seven Colossus fight, I think.

    As far as the manga's tournament arc goes,
    I mean, he got everything he wanted out of it - he faced off against arguably the best gamer in America and went 1-1-1 while deliberately drawing out matches so Oicazzo could finish the FPS final he got sitcommishly double-booked for, and without that motivation to spark his engine he crashed out in the triple tiebreaker.

    That's a goddamn amazing showing especially considering he's good at video games but isn't professional-grade good at professional video games and doesn't want to be, and maybe that's drawing a ton of flak from the fanbase too?

    Was Chainsaw Man on sale at all? It's maddening that it still has no inkling of getting a physical release...

    I buy from Xbox's videos very occasionally, mainly when the physical release is outrageously pricy or not available for some reason. Chainsaw Man was $5 for the season, which seemed worthwhile even with a sub to a streaming service that carries it still.

    Does it translate the song lyrics also? CR's notoriously for skipping that except in rare cases(Frieren for some reason).

    It doesn't, at least for the OPs and EDs (I forget if there are insert songs in CSM S1, would have to be reminded to check them) but I wouldn't call that a Crunchyroll thing, specifically. Netflix isn't doing the song lyrics for Delicious in Dungeon, for example. There must be either some cost based consideration there (see Vtuber song covers that aren't coming with subs) or possibly some (dumb) professional subbing convention being honored.

    I don't think I've ever owned anime in physical form.

    Admittedly, I don't think I've owned that much in the way of movies or cartoons in physical form at all, in general. I had a few movies in VHS when I was a kid, I'm pretty sure? But generally I don't rewatch things much so it never seemed like a priority to get them physically just so they would occupy shelf space forever.

    I re-watch and re-read plenty, so owning stuff is a safeguard that I'll be able to satisfy my nostalgia fueled cravings as much as I want.
