Fantasy world so non Japanese names are fair game. Only really an issue when it goes live-action and you pull from local available actors, idols and “talent”.

Then there’s Pepsiman!

Other than some of the media, the rest looks like a warehouse liquidation sale so they’ll have space to stock newer stuff for Christmas. 2 gen old Roomba. Piles of generic electronics/computer/cell phone accessories. A Cheetah mask? No name watches. A 720p HDTV. Oh boy, a bracket to mount my Roku box behind the TV.

We can only hope that Smedley was baiting them into a trap to find them, nab them, and drop them into a deep hole with a nice print library and no tech access for what? 10 years?

I was 30 or so when anime started to pop up at video stores (Suncoast Video) and at the time college clubs was the main breading ground for anime fandom. There were some high schoolers who started watching their college siblings fansub copies. Most don’t remember or weren’t alive for Robotech from 1984 which were 3…

Exactly, define the goal and in this case battery life was a higher priority for Nintendo than color or backlighting. How many remember the little book lights you could get for your gameboy and gameboy color?

Currently all three seasons are at Cruchyroll, 3rd season just started so only one or two episodes. First season introduces the regulars over a few episodes and the cast slowly grows over time, and so does the opening credits which is kind of cute.

Hey another born in ‘62 anime fan. I thought I was the only old guy here.

But other movies before and after Doc Hollywood used the same trope. Doc Hollywood wasn’t the first, just the one people remember because everyone loved Michael J. Fox.

I can’t understand the seething hate people have for the Cars movies. First one uses a time honor plot device of fast living city guy finding a life out of the city. I think what ticked people off was it’s success at merchandising which in turn drove, no pun intended, the decision to quickly do a Cars 2 rather than…

Sadly the excuse is the right lane can be a bit more rough due to lots of semi-traffic. And once there they don’t look behind them.

It’s the last game ever made.

Salary is directly related to marketability and currently women’s soccer and basketball simply does not have the financial backing of major TV contracts, which is dependent on viewership which determines how much the network expects in ad revenue. Then there is ticket revenues. In the case of the WNBA the salary and…

Welcome to the Internet. It was designed to deliver data, nothing about delivering it in a reliable, consistent fashion.

I need to spread this to some Babymetal fans.

Caught the car but still cheese grated part of the car into the first few rows. Don’t think I could ever sit in the first few rows at a curve without my own personal body armor and riot shield.

Once the Air Force got tinglely in their neithers with stealth, everything needed to be stealth. Stealth is good in the first few days or until you take out the SAM and radar sites. Then everything is radar invisible. And really since that’s when the danger to pilots are at their highest is the time to use drones to…

Aw. Not the Prowler. Worked on the upgraded data recording device about 30 years ago.

I would say Clannad and Kanon. Clannad is on Hulu for those in the US. Don’t know where you can find Kanon, the newer version, anymore. They also end in feels and Clannad has feels in the middle as well. Personally Clannad and Kanon destroyed me but they do end a bit more upbeat. But those are anime based on VNs and…

Needed to be done like old school electric football was done. This is to normal.
