When I heard “anime figures” I had the sneaking suspicion that they were suggestively-posed female characters in revealing clothes. Then I saw the name “Vampirella” and my suspicions were confirmed. So yeah, I would personally have a hard time taking a guy who openly displays that in his office seriously. Here’s the…

And think of all the female coworkers who have to come into his office talk with him and have to look at his statues of scantily clad women...

I don’t ever rewatch things, so if I’m paying for a movie or show digitally, it will be for a rental unless the purchase price is nearly the same due to a sale or something. That being said, I maybe rent or purchase two or three things a year. Everything else is usually available to stream by the time I get around to…

I’ve rented on other services. Not everything you want is available to stream. And if you only ever plan on watching it once there is no point in buying. So why wouldn’t you rent it? $3-5 to watch a movie for a day or two is pretty reasonable.

First time seeing Otaku products from Japan?

There is a lack of Venti and Xiao here...but then again they’re gay for each other so.

Thanks for the advice. I pay $5 a month for the blessing just to support the developers, but that’s as far as I’ll ever go.

Agreed. I have fond memories of doing cutscene renders in POV-Ray back in the day, a tool that was released in 1991. Raytracing on computers goes back to the 60s and 70s and predates rasterised rendering.

But didn’t the DS Shadow Dragon cover this? From Wikipedia:

I look forward to Final Fantasy VIII: Remake, now with more random, corny swearing to appeal to the now 30-somethings that played the original when they were 13. Suck on that shit, Ultimecia!

You’re right. More like 1996. I was in elementary school when that show first aired, and I loved the shit out of it. My RatTrap figure was a prized possession.

And in Canada, where I grew up, the show was called Beasties for some reason. They didn’t want to include the word “Wars” for the title of a children’s show, I…

There is a way, we, as a people, need to stop supporting it.  Just calm the F down and don’t get so perturbed.

But Hillary’s emails! Benghazi! She’s not likable enough! She needs to inspire me! /s

I’m glad that you said it, because I feel like it hasn’t gotten nearly enough play. On one hand, obviously, I wanted her to serve on the court forever, and I can understand her desire to hang on for as long as possible, but strategic thinking would have very much helped.

I think that’s a large reason why FFXIV is widely considered the best Final Fantasy in a long time, largely because it mostly disposes with alot of the edgey 13 year-old grim dark posturing, and goes back to the sincerity found in earlier Final Fantasy games.

There is no reason her dress needs to be green in order to do any of this. You could Photoshop it whether it was black or navy or fuchsia and it would be the same.

Watched the video. No smoke bombs present. Could easily see culprits. Left disappointed.
