We also have an IRC channel called #tladt where we all hang out. The channel is on Rizon, not QuakeNet! Feel free to check it out. TLADT discord is Discord.gg

Good to know. Anything you are currently watching/reading that has already airred/been released?
LoGH
You are incapable of watching LoGH. I guess you are too afraid to give a real answer, since you know I'd spoiler it for you. I guess this isn't really surprising, though.
I saw the length of that, and I threw up my hands in submission.

It would have been nice. I haven't read the latest chapter yet and was expecting just some loli pic.
That's the second time this chapter has been spoiled for me, because someone a few pages ago just labeled the spoiler as TWGOK without specifying anime or manga, so I clicked it thinking it was for the anime -_-

I think you should subscribe to some random website who sends you an email when the new chapter is released. That way you can read it ASAP (and let's be realistic, if you have 5 minutes to be on TL getting spoiled, you have 5 minutes to read a 20 pages chapter). That's what I do and I never get spoiled that way. I don't know which website you use, but mangareader has such a subscription feature.

Well I wasn't arguing about whether or not we should tag our spoilers. I always do and I believe it's indeed necessary. I was just trying to help Ferrose avoid getting in this kind of situation.

Dunno about you, I personally find it rather hard to read manga on a schedule for a lot of things. There are things like xkcd that I have developed a habit of just spamming refresh for, then there are things that I know I can get scans and can be reminded of getting scans and...not read.
Easier to just bash him with spoilers till he learns, if he cares enough

I can't "resolve" the server or whatever.
hm cant help you there I use the IceChat IRC because mIRC was too annoying :/

personally I have no problem with spoilers of specific events because I get most of my pleasure when watching anime out of the process that leads to an event and not from the event itself. So even if I would watch some anime right now and you guys would spoil the major plot points I would still watch it without any lessened watchingexperience
Yeah, I guess I'm just good with schedule. Probably a stupid suggestion seeing how Ferrose was late when we were watching LoGH :p No way he would be able to follow a weekly 5 minutes schedule.

ill take an anti climatic "ending" over a nonsensical ordering any time. especially cause you now have the movie which works as a great ending to the series.
i watched the broad cast order and regretted it, so went back and skimmed all the episodes in the chrono order.
Have you ever watched Code Geass? If so, what were your thoughts on the show? Which season was better, the first season or R2?
I say that the first season is overall awesome and has a very high standard. R2 has its ups and downs whe it is awesome it is uber awesome but thats paired with some sub standard events that feel forced and consequently some sub standard episodes. In the end R2 is slightly better.
One beef I have with the show: they always use terrain to "surprise" the enemy.... this is extremely lame. Landslide, volcano, the fight in the desert (can not remember what exactly changed the terrain there)..... thats just retarded.
Terrain is a major factor in war though...I'm pretty sure that Sun Tzu had a whole chapter in "The Art of War" dedicated to terrain and its uses. Terrain can be used by both sides in war and is a deciding factor in many important battles. It only expands a commander's strategical depth and ability to conduct and win a battle. And I think that the landslide was pretty cool.

Yeah, I should. But I didn't even know the new chapter was out yet, lol.
I should see if Red Hawk has an RSS feed, or see if there's one on Baka Updates or whatever, or just make Red Hawk's website my home page, so that I am constantly reminded lol.

I don't understand any of it, but if I did, that guy over there would still have his arm.
Edit: Finally got around to the Ika Musume specials.
Mini Ika-chan is still the most moe thing ever, and they were funny, but each short was only four minutes long. So while it was a refreshing hit, it wasn't enough to truly satisfy my Ika-chan addiction de-geso~
I feel like the characters are developing nicely. Nako-chi actually is speaking, Minchi is less of a bitch, and Tohru is going to be so much trouble....lulz
