    I've been to local anime clubs populated by people who probably weren't born when I started watching anime, but yeesh, doesn't mean they have to be put down for it.

    G-witch is up for preorder, I’ll let you decide if it’s a happy pride or not when you see the price.

    That's not nearly as bad as I expected, it's actually fairly reasonable.

    The fact that you expected it to be more is messed up. I get that these are fairly standard anime season prices but how does Kamen Rider Geats manage to have more than half the price/episode when G-Witch will surely sell leagues better.

    Also, at this point I want a Birdie Wing blu ray way more than I do CSM.

    Retro stuff just sells for cheaper. You could literally get every season of Ultraman for less than one season of WFM at one point.
    That said, the least they could do is make the set nice to match... that looks like it's just a barebones release, at least the Aniplex stuff comes with supplement and nice packaging.
    (The Chainsaw Man DVDs did too, though I'd bet money they'll get removed if it ever comes out here.)

    Geats was the 22-23 Kamen Rider season, it's about as old as G-Witch is actually.

    The fucked thing about that G-witch price is it’s basically just how they price other Gundam sets, except volume of those typically is the episode count of G-Witch altogether.

    There’s no real reason to separate them into two volumes other than to get more money out of the buyer.

    I wanted to watch One Punch Man season 2 on Netflix here in Europe, but apparently they forgot to include any dubs or subs, so it's just the Japanese audio with no subtitles at all. Great work Netflix, 10/10.

    Furuya admitted that he had been in a relationship with a female fan for four and a half years until last September. He said that he had become attracted to a fan of his that was supporting him earnestly, and that he had contacted her to begin the affair. He also admitted that during their relationship, he had raised his hand to strike her once when they had an argument. Furuya also admitted that he had caused the woman to have an abortion.

    Why the hell did Teamsters president Sean O’Brien accept an invitation to speak at the republican national convention? The only acceptable answer I can think of is to troll them to their faces and rip into them for their anti-labor platform, including trying to make child labor a thing again. Even then, this is going to make a lot of labor people give him tons of blistering side-eye.

    The idea that your vote is a moral statement about you or who you vote for is some backwards ass libertarian nonsense. Your vote is about society. Vote to protect the vulnerable.

    They were kind of hinting at that in the recent Urusei Yatsura. Any time they had English class in the series they were just reading Ranma stuff, and an uncredited Akane popped up briefly in the most recent season to clobber Ataru after getting hit on.
