About time someone stands up to the insane monopoly giant that is both Sony and Funimation. Sorry, that's the first thing I read through on your site, and it resonates with me greatly. I have never once paid for either service and have steered folk clear myself, so I appreciate what you're doing here too.

Nope, it is fine. I miss the days of A.D.V, Manga Entertainment, Tokyopop, Viz, 4K!DS, DiC, Nelvana, Geneon, Saban and Media Blasters (who are still around) all competing for anime titles, even if their adaptations were never always the best. With the monopoly, subtitles are probably going to get worse and some anime will become unobtainable.

It seems like your post on my profile disappeared. Might I ask about your thoughts on Kakugo no Susume? I would consider the pluses to be good music and somewhat decent animation (better than Angel Cop and the Nora series from slightly later). The negatives are the somewhat goofy character designs and how condensed the plot was for the runtime.

Hey, please let me know if this disappears, too! I tried the direct post, and it went away, and then the comment one did, too- my post about the unicode hearts on my own profile was kind of a test. I kind of liked the goofy character designs, though, and the weird tonal/content shifts had a definite vibe. I have a soft spot for wonky OVAs, though. I respect something that really goes for it, even if it fails. Plus, I

didn’t know a thing about what it was going to be and almost spit-taked cranberry sauce across my craft table at “wow, I did not have ‘giant dominatrix explodes a schoolgirl’s guts out the top of her head’ on my OVA bingo card at all, but that’s anime, baby”

That being said, I kind of like Nora, too? The first would be unremarkable on its own, but Twinkle Nora is off base to such an unconventional degree, in terms of story, animation, all of it, that I think it made the first retroactively more interesting to me. I don’t think it’s good by any means, but sometimes it’s better to be fascinating than it is to be competently made.

Still not feeling all that great, but I think I found a workaround to the bet and am using it to my advantage right now. (I will not provide information, though).

Not feeling too well today. I made a really sucky bet with someone (well kind of forced really) and I am regretting every bit of it.

Still ongoing. Money, pride and reputation are all at stake for something that I believe is frankly hedonistic. I am supposed to get a partner (specifically, a girlfriend) in a week and a half and spend a further week and a half together. It came from a joke somebody made about me never feeling a women's touch (not even my own mother's) and then it spiraled into a bet that I was told to get into. If I lose, I owe...

... a manga volume to the person who made a bet with (of a series which reflects his lecherous tastes [Nagatoro, Monster Musume, Dragon Maid, were his picks]). This deal was returned, but if I win, he is going to be broke beyond compare (going to pay every of some big Omnibus or Box Set).

To be completely honest, if I was in that situation, I would probably just take the L. A relationship founded upon on a bet seems painful for everyone involved. Physical affection means nothing without mutual compatibility, and it is better to be alone than in a relationship without true caring...That's just my opinion though. Whatever you choose to do, I hope everything works out for the best!

@letslearntogether Agreed, though somebody did hint attraction to me, however, I do not want to read too much into that, since I would shy away from such assumptions.

To add, she said she liked my personality out loud in class. I quite like her as well (and told some other classmates about it), but did not want to pidgeonhole myself to a certain timeline and I easily drop such ideas too. I likely will take the loss, unless "I fake it until I make it", but I might give the idea a try, but most probably only so far as to have conversation.
