I feel you. My buddy have 85" 8K tv with full theater speakers setup, watched one of the Fate series (in 2k), it was awesome! Especially the fighting scene!

I have 65" and able to stream from my pc, so I can watch it on the tv, instead of 24" monitor. It's nice to watch it on bigger nicer tv.

I'm waiting for Samsung to release the Q990B here to add to the C2 (65"). Should make action scenes more lively, and dialogue clearer. The C2 has way better built in speakers than the B7 (got a cheap basic LG soundbar for it since the built in speakers didn't have any low frequency power at all).

Maybe I'll rewatch the Fate series now. LOL

Well, tried signing in on the B7, and the shows portion is unresponsive.

I have begun watching the English dub of Ghost Stories. Where has this been my whole life and why have I not seen it until now!?!?

(I've seen various abridged series of course, but apparently a real studio did this and it's amazing)

Is technically not an official dub, but one of the funniest abridged series I've watched is the Dragon Ball Z Kai (TeamFourStar) videos on YouTube.



But you're right, is G.S is plain savagery. How did they get away with it blows my mind, it is so bad but so good, but so bad again. This is also from around a time when series like Drawn Together were airing too.

Anyone else been watching S2 of Tokyo Revengers? I really enjoyed season 1 but this second season is kind of... not enjoyable. I like some of it but it almost hurts to watch. I'm lowkey disappointed.

Know what surprised the fk outta me?
Co-worker was getting into anime and asked for some suggestions.
Told him go watch NGE as a joke. Then the obvious Boku No Pico to really drive it home.
He already knew about the Boku joke but went and watched NVE and loved it.
[insert gay piano noises]

Yowamushi Pedal - there's two seasons on Netflix, but I looked it up on imdb and there's five seasons now. Latest on Jan 28 this year.

It's a formulaic anime reprise on Initial D but with road bicycling. Good explanations of how the equipment and team dynamics work.

Sorry ... hopeless bike otaku weeb

'Love Princess Pancake' ... SQUEEeee

Finally found a good Initial D DVD seller. Got myself a collection of all Stages plus OVAs. Quality is fair, same with English Subtitles. I do like that the seller increased effects sounds.
I might just end up ordering the Legend 1-3 Movies separate.

Wife and I just finished Monster and started on Eureka 7. (Second watch through for me)

Monster was good, but there's no way the ending could really compete with the massive buildup that was the first 72 (of 74) episodes of craziness.
