A more expensive ticket for a + Show Spoiler +anime film that's only one third the length of most Hollywood movies? And some of you people are actually going to bite?

always exploit otaku/weaboos for money never not exploit otaku/weaboos for money.

Hmm. Go see it in theaters, maybe suggest that there may be a market for such things outside of the already extreme focused market of Japan, or reinforce that there is no way for anime to make money in such venues so why bother even trying.
Besides, I think it would be worth it over trying to sort through fifty kinds of hellish fansubs to find the one that works as long as you set the encoder settings exactly the way the opinionated fansubbing group decrees.
I dunno. I think it's a bit tough to bitch at people for spending money the way they want to do so, especially if the people doing so are generally not paying money even for the things they like.
Nyaa?

He's not wrong. Anime industry absolutely loathes it's customers lol.
Can anyone that reads Horizon here(ragz/Ecael?) answer a question for me after 3C.+ Show Spoiler +Is Yoshitsune alive? After the Satomi guys death at the end I need one of them to live. Didn't expect Horizon to go so dam sad.

It's in stock. It's also available as digital MP3. Unfortunately, the entire site is in Japanese, which means I have no idea if I'm logged in, if I can log in, if I can add to cart, etc. There's a link to an English listing of goods, which links back to the Japanese product pages.
On this basis, I declare the notion of "globalization" to be a lie. Sure, shipping would be higher, but I also know there are daily cargo flights to here that are chock full of this kind of specific trade parcel. l'sigh.
1) I think amazon.com and amazon.co.jp use different accounts. I'm fairly sure I had to create a new one for the .co.jp one while I can use my normal amazon account on amazon.de (german), amazon.com (USA) as well as amazon.co.uk 2) There's a button that will translate the amazon-generated stuff into english: + Show Spoiler [pics] + into english + Show Spoiler [pic] + 3) Click "Add to Cart" + Show Spoiler [pic] + 4) Go back to putting more stuff in there or click "Proceed to Checkout" 5) At that point you're at the usual shipping dialogue + Show Spoiler [pic] +
and it should be pretty straightforward. They don't ship everything internationally. iirc they don't ship games and idk... probably if you want to buy a fridge/hometrainer or some shit like that.
Other than that, it's airmail so I usually get my stuff within 3 or 4 days in Germany, the shipping is super expensive as a flat ~10€ + 2€ per item but duh.
Interestingly enough I was able to order this when I made the first picture (the shipping dialogue). Now it's telling me they can't ship it outside of JP anymore and I don't even get to the "Place your order" page. It should ship outside JP though since it's a CD that's not 18+....

OOOOOOH

Watched Mobile Suit Gundam II: Soldiers of Sorrow. Still don't like the MC.
Shirayuki-hime s2 ep1 was indeed very slow. My predictions:
+ Show Spoiler +Shirayuki will be kidnapped by that boy. Obi, who will be her attendend, will free her. Then some love-triangle drama will start.
*fingers crossed*

ok heres the list some fun 1sts here, nothing apparently S class although perfect insider and boku dake ga inai machi (erased) seem to have potential
OK = stuff i personally will watch more of. there is number of decent-seeming other stuff out there just not my style .
in addition to my OKs I would especially reccommend trying shinegki kyojin chuugakkou , dimension w and schwarzesmarken for fastpaced comedy, black lagoonesque crew and gundam grit (not saying they're great but were fun to try)
boku dake ga inai machi (erased) like parasyte OK
lance masque ep3 knight protect loli OK
hai to gensou no grimgar group of young people in a DND-like setting OK
perfect insider stein's gate / monster esque OK
shouwa genroku rakygo shinjuu man becomes the apprentice of a professional storyteller OK (dont have time to watch it all right now tho)
norn world-travelling spaceship with nature magic OK
bubuki buranki magic fantasy scifi OK
peeping life hit n miss comedy sketches converted to animation cool theme tunes OK
comet lucifer magic fantasy scifi OK
shinegki kyojin chuugakkou not bad, sd attack on titan silly parody
phantasy star online 2 like it was written by old-generation japanese business people parapara ed
phantom world eurobeat+scandal op seems a lot like hestia anime. nice loli introduced in later ep
nurse witch nonlewd moetan clone
brave beats pretty uninspired kids show
luck & logic battle harem with powerful male mc
koukaku no pandora echi android battle
active raid upbeat battle police crew
dimension w future scifi toughguy with robot girl
ao no kanata no four rhythm sol pink haired airhead becomes quidditch player
schwarzesmarken gundam/terraformas crew with serious mc and ditzy tryhard blonde
saijaku muhai no bahamut blonde himesama gets impressed by innocent fantasy gundam mc knight
shoujo techi wa kouya wo mezasu some sol about making a game
i will now proceed to not watch anime for another 6 months

lol FF, seems like you haven't watched anime for a while. And now you watched first episodes of xx shows and won't watch them further? I don't get it.
On another note: + Show Spoiler [Eden of the East ep7] +Saki running through that hotel was freaking adorable, especially the elevator scene. :o
|
I believe FF is what is known as a hardcore Otaku where as you merely a weak pleb weeb so trying to understand it just isn't going to work.
Do you guys just watch every single airing show's first few eps? Don't know how you manage that lol.

I try to watch most shows at least. If they don't interest me at all then ofc I don't give them a chance though.

lol ok then.
And no, I usually check the chart and pick what seems potentially interesting and check out first eps of those. Sometimes I check out some more shows later on because I read about them on a board or something.
