One Punch Man might actually work for new viewers as its more of a deconstruction of tropes that excels in its action than an indulgence of tropes with only middling action. Then again, it might have the effect of simply making them fans of OPM rather than getting them into anime in general.

I feel like if you can tolerate its 80's-tastic stylings and some really dated cheesecakey fanservice, Gunbuster is an absolute classic entry point into scifi anime. It manages to marry a goofball coming-of-age action story a la the Starship Troopers movie or Top Gun with some fun “close enough” science fiction

YOU LITERALLY CLICKED ON A POST DICTATING DETAILS FROM A MOVIE THAT COMES OUT NEXT YEAR. The FUCK did you expect?

I have zero skin thickness when it comes to multiplayer games. Someone was slightly rude to me in a text chat after a match of Rocket League and it was enough to turn me off the game for months. I’ve never touched Overwatch because I know the first time I run into this stuff it’ll ruin me on the game forever. I miss

Woah buddy. You can say A LOT of things about Giana Sisters but the music was on point.

That is not a spoiler. It’s a minor detail.

Nope. Like 10 and 11 said and was restated by Missy, when the timelines cross each other the past self can’t retain the memories. Simm’s Master will regenerate never knowing who stabbed him, much less that it was his future self he just shot in the back.

Wrong. It is an actual goddamn crime that modern Final Fantasy doesn’t look like a Yoshitaka Amano painting in motion.

Monopoly is a bad game and its immortal dominance of the board game industry is proof that God has truly abandoned us.

Can you not mix and match the Original and Remastered graphics and music in Cave Story+ on the Switch? You can on the Steam version.

This felt much more in line with with strong start this season had. The horror worked, the sci-fi worked, and the show is back to having fun with its own ridiculous language and lore. (I’m sure the “Doctor Who” real name banter will get a rise out some joyless fans, but I loved it.) Calling back to the Master’s goofy

Wow. Those are NOT the reasons people say those movies are garbage.

Everybody badmouthing spinners like they seriously never owned a pog

These Universe 6 characters are on the same level potential-wise as Goku and Vegeta. Think about it this way. In less than one generation we have a situation where Super Saiyans go from being just barely remembered legends to there being several of them. Both universes are currently seeing a generation who outclass

This actually looks like it might be ok. Part 4 really lends itself to stand alone adaptation. It’s far enough removed from the vampire saga to not get weighed down with lore, but it’s connected enough to suggest a long, rich history of good vs evil when it needs to. Josuke is a fun, charismatic protagonist. Jotaro is

Typical Moffat? I tend to associate the Love Wins Deus Ex Machina with the RTD era.

Definitely the weak end of this season, but the season has been very good so even the worst is not that bad. The Monks relying entirely on mass deception and memory manipulation makes perfect sense for an otherwise non-threatening villain. I like the point about them even going so far as to fake their numbers to

I’m sure it’s being talked about. But 5e’s crowning achievement is in its accessibility. That’s the main reason we’re seeing this new golden age of D&D interest. The books being released now are not these impenetrable giant tomes of lore that that are only marginally useful in most games. They’re taking the best stuff

About the same time rock music stopped being the devil’s music and became the dads’ music.
