Clearly you are too young to understand Soundwave’s appeal. In the 80s, the Sony Walkman was THE piece of tech to have and every kid lusted after it. Most were lucky if they got a knockoff. It was at least as much a status symbol as an iPod or iPhone. Making a Transformer based on one was a no-brainer and he was an…

Wait, what? No muscle cars were sedans. They were always two door coupes.

There is no sufficient provocation to justify a large, strong man attacking a small underage woman. If you think there is, you’re sick.

Keep moving those goalposts, friend.

You act as if it matters if there is an “official American release” or not. It took me five minutes of Google search to find every one of those series available on region-free or Region 1 NTSC dvd or blu-ray disc. It’s called imports, and it’s completely legal. And buying imports makes sure more of your money goes to…

This has gotten far beyond ridiculous. I put up with the filler, enjoyed it through part of the Buu saga but even then the writing was on the wall —the formula of new bad guy, more training new form EVEN MORE POWER wash rinse repeat was inherently a dead end. This is a martial arts story, and what by the Frieza saga…

Brilliant! You sir win an internets!

Only things on that list that my friend does not have (on officially packaged DVD) are 7 and Flashback 2012. How do you define “legally released in the States”? Because imported DVDs are legal from the likes of Right Stuff and a lot of that is available on streaming services like CrunchyRoll. What, are you waiting for…

It’s because the original plane was designed for anime to look cool, not to be really functional. It was created by a science fiction visual designer, not a real aircraft engineering designer and so nobody was sure the design was actually airworthy. What these RC model makers did was build a Valkyrie that looked…

People always say that but I have seen every Macross series except for Macross 7 and my friend has them all on legally purchased DVD. What has Harmony Gold blocked?

I never liked the “ball breaks the plane = touchdown” rule anyhow. How many times have we seen guys flying towards the corner pylon with their whole body out of bounds but they hit the corner with the ball on the way down and that’s a touchdown? Fuck that. Even worse is the stupidest looking play in football, where…

Let’s see, turn based Japanese RPG with anime style character art? Hmm, sounds like the sort of thing Square Enix and the gaming media seem to think is outdated and will never fly in the modern era of action RPGs and realistic CGI graphics. And it’s making a crapton of money... go figure. Seems the experts don’t know…

How convenient that you only sleep with overweight “people who don’t hate themselves” in a society that constantly levies judgement against the overweight and teaches them self-hate. Your condition makes the “fat people I fuck” a unicorn, basically, so you can claim to be all progressive and open minded without having…

Perhaps you weren’t paying attention, but the number fluctuates over time with (at best) a slow but steady drop over the course of a decade, which is decidedly NOT what was advertised. If the gun ban was so effective, why would there be four years subsequent that are actually higher, and only one year below 300 from a…

Why is hentai and “imagery like this” a problem, because women’s groups don’t like it? Fuck them. No actual women are being harmed, these radfem women’s groups are rabidly anti-male to begin with so what’s to gain by catering to them? You give up the fantasy women in attempt to please the real ones, and you get…

Hmm, modern feminists are on a man-hating rampage 24/7 and men are avoiding dating / relationships / women and preferring virtual ones... you think there might be some link there? I’ve seen it coming for a while and it might be farther along in Japan than here in the West but it’s coming. When all women ever do is…

I don’t get that. Can’t you just, you know, ASK them?

Australia’s homicide rate has not dropped. Gun crimes still happen. Look at the graph, dude. No miracle cure here.

Alcohol prohibition was repealed because it was a disasrter that built criminal empires from scratch and created a vast new black market while failing to stop alcohol consumption, only driving it underground. Same bullshit happened with drugs, and people are finally waking up to that debacle, now reaxctionary idiots…

Does this look like a significant decrease in homicides to you? Note the ban happened in 1997 and in this chart the highest year for homicides is 1999. numerous years remain over 300 (the year before the ban had 354) and in all it’s a mostly flat graph with the kind of mild fluctuation you’d expect from a statistic…
