The Legend of Koizumi isn't much of a time committment, the manga is only 20 issues long and the anime is 7-9 minutes apiece. | ||

Saki = Mahjong + Moe Koizumi = Mahjong + nationalism, gar, and ugly animation | ||

Anyway, I just finished the first episode of Saki, and it seems like it's right up my alley.

You sure those aren't the Blu-ray versions? | ||

Mahjong's just waaaay too time consuming as well. If I had other distractions besides watching anime and browsing TL, I'd never get anything done.

I'm just surprised that the Blu-ray versions are so big. I don't think I've gotten a Blu-ray version since... well since 5 cm/s | ||

 Chinese rules or international ones are more interesting imo!Just some of the encodes are like that, I think, ones running flac for music like. You see gundam ripped at 1080p, aac in mp4, multiple audio tracks and it is still just 1.something gig. As for me, I just sucked it up and paid for my blu-ray versions. Now to continue through more Bungaku Shoujo and fight the temptation to import all the books this very moment. | ||

And I stopped watching Railgun for today. There's only so much mindless entertainment and sheer stupidity that I can handle in one day ;/ | ||

Obviously it's the video that's causing the large file size though :p And I stopped watching Railgun for today.

Which is why I rather enjoy seeing mahjong anime/manga for team based games, feels much more strategic in general.

Supercell is awesome, if for nothing else, I thank Nico Nico and Miku from the bottom of my heart for leading to Supercell. On March 12 2010 14:15 FragKrag wrote: Watching Kare Kano at the moment. Only on Ep 8, but it just makes me wonder why more romance animes aren't like it. The animation/art is subpar, but I can't help but love the characters so far oo; So far it's definitely a level up from stuff like Clannad/Toradora Different products, Toradora...well, I'll refrain on commenting on that. Clannad and Key's games tend toward using romance as a delivery vehicle more than anything else. | ||

Yeah, which is why I'd buy blu-ray version of rakkyo if they ever release those, luckily bakemonogatari just starts with bluray and I won't have to spend twice. They need to get their shit together and animate Zaregoto/Ningen series already. It is even the work that was designed to be animated and it isn't seeing animation. When can I get my Kunagisa, Aikawa Jun and Hagihara Shiogi voiced | ||
