    At least it's easy to stream, but yeesh.

    The movies aren’t.

    Edit: And I think the parallel works aren’t on YouTube anymore right?

    Which, don't think you really needed a cryptic advertisement for "you can buy shirts now!" but hey, I'm not in marketing.

    The Bleach logo hoodie looks nice, but not $90 nice.

    For a bonus somewhat NSFW option, there is the completed manga "Do Chokkyuu Kareshi x Kanojo" (Extremely Straightforward Boyfriend and Girlfriend). It is perhaps the only manga you need earplugs to read. I think it got cancelled at one point, but the author was able to get it in another magazine where she was able to complete it. It's a fun read but not at work or school because they have a healthy sexual relationship unlike many manga romcom characters.

    You weren't kidding about this being loud.

    Also I just got to chapter 5 and

    well, that was shorter than I expected

    though in practise now I have to take a break, because I don't know if I can keep on laughing that hard without hurting something.

    Wait is Haibane rare? I've got the DVD for that (unless it's a fancy box set which I don't have)

    The Funimation re-release has pushed down demand for the original Geneon/Pioneer release a lot, but yeah for a long time it was one of the rarer DVDs in the US market because Geneon only did a small printing the fourth DVD and the really fancy all-in-one boxset. Kinda like how the first run of dotHack games were really easy to get the first two and then really hard to get the last two

    You can get that fourth DVD or the fancy box set a lot cheaper nowadays, but for a while both were $texas

    The question JJK feels like it answers to me (at least from what I've seen in the anime): What if YuYuHakusho or Bleach actually more or less stuck to their guns on their very early "paranormal investigator" arcs even as the plot escalated, and kept things in a real-world street setting instead of going to the spirit realm forever?

    Honestly as the JJK manga went on I gradually became a lot less enamored with it.

    It just keeps adding more and more new characters and concepts that it's not really juggling well, leading up to a big event with a big status quo change.

    And it kind of feels like I've lost the thread.

    I've heard the manga is a bit harder to read because the animation is so damn good for the anime, it basically takes precedence over the plot. It's just so damn pretty, it kinda makes up for some weak writing. AoT season 2 comes to mind.

    What if shonen but everyone is cool and can carry their own weight in a fight and never too stupid or horny to live as a cheap gag. I legit can’t remember a series that respects its entire cast as much

    JJK the manga has messy paneling sometimes, so I absolutely understand people saying it's hard to follow.

    It's also very gutsy in not worshipping status quo and actually moving on arc to arc, in a way a typical consumer of fiction might not appreciate.

    I'm psyched for the movie but haven't heard how it's being localized.

    So, for those that want to feel super old, Sailor Moon is celebrating it's 30th anniversary.
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=088zax3zKkE
    Anime News Network has the details:
    https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2022-01-18/sailor-moon-commemorates-30th-anniversary-with-museum-collabs/.181633
    But is basically a bunch of merch and a VR experience I guess (with graphics straight from the PS2).

    It does look cute though.

    Just binged my way through reading Oshi No Ko. a:it is _fantastic_, and b:I am not happy about where the last chapter (67) ended and that the next chapter is not out yet.

    Though, thinking about it,
    given Himekawa came from a children's home he probably doesn't know either

    Chapter 68:
    well, I was wrong about what I put in the previous spoiler, but this also seems a bit too easy to me.

    About that:
    There's no proof saying the husband of Himekawa's mother who killed himself was the father of Aqua and Himekawa.

    Himekawa's father and mother could have had affairs.

    The Akira blu ray they did recently is so good because it includes ALL the different dubs. Meanwhile, the "Ultimate" set of Evangelion doesn't even have the ED.

    Yes, I'm bitter.
