There is a weird merit to that style of character, but they don’t instant recognition that a character like Ahri has. Ah yes, generic nine-tailed fox character, very original and recognizable. Ahri looks like a thousand other generic nine-tailed fox designs.

There is nothing original about monkey king or crystal maiden. Doesn’t make the artistic and design decisions around the characters less impressive. | ||

Something like Lina would not fly if made now a days, same reason they had to change OD and Skeleton King.  Also prefer torrents, easier to forward/rewind etc. | ||

We're gonna watch the remake and then watch the original back to back so he can compare them, that's what he wanted to do. I'm not excited though. ye i was kinda thinking of doing the same, alr found a nice fat 44gb batch for the original :D | ||

It's definitely not a question of waiting for me Edit: Also neat, spyro remake finally got officially confirmed. Time to wait for the eventual switch or PC port. | ||

(And before there even were public streaming sites [as far as I know] I watched more anime than I do now.) Now a days I think I could manage with the streaming sites. Most episodes tend to average 2 min with popular releases being faster on torrent sites. So the wait isn't a bother to me and batches usually are a better experience than the streaming sites with how easy it is to move around in the episode and skip to next. That reminds me, I should complete Yawara at some point now that there is an English release. Decent series that I dropped twice... Oh and Attack Number One, only watched the J-drama of that and only half of the anime. Is Attack Number One anime on any streaming site with English or no subs? | ||

Time to wait for the eventual switch or PC port. I have to torrent on campus, but it's also fine because I make sure to have a decent set of shows to watch when I get home. Always a backlog, same with games. I definitely download Steam games long before I plan on playing them. | ||
