No worries, reply whenever you can

Fair enough, the ending was pretty bitter annoying, I didn't like it personally even though I don't mind bitter sweet endings.

True that, that X burner was fucking epic, the "Tsuna Awakens" OST always made his bad ass moments even more enjoyable for me!

Yeah I get what you mean, I still look now and then, if they score an anime highly and I see another anime they've watched and rated highly then I'll try it out. Similar tastes and all that.

I'm finishing off Evangelion for the second time as well as Yamada-kun to 7-nin majo, Utawarerumono and Log Horizon, I'll probably watch Magi in time for next season and then the F/S N series, I'm a sucker for awesome fight scenes and visuals.

True, it's not very often I see great character development in long anime but maybe I'm just watching the wrong shows. I see what you mean, it was so frustrating watching Yuki be a pussy for like 20 something episodes and unlike tsuna, his cool moments didn't atone for his shit moments.

Not really, it's a good website and all but I was just wondering. I like looking at other peoples anime lists every now and then to see their tastes and what new anime to watch haha.

first off im sorry for taking so long ot respond

and yea same here, but lets stay optimistic
yea, i mena i didnt really watch that far cuz i wondered how long is he gonna stay a whimp and when MAL said its almost to the end i just quit haha

tsuna really did pull of complete 180° when he fought

me 2, but with years i began to understand that i cant really trust any of those list 100%
oh and i watcher fate/zero and now im on UBW and imo the series is not bad but its far from waht its cracked up to be
some of the fights are really awesome tho and since im a sucker for great visual effects im gonna stick with it

True and true

Yeah, shame we didn't really see them though except for a short moment when Tsuna first arrived in the future

Again to be fair to yuki he kinda stepped it up towards the end but before that he was so god damn annoying, I agree that he wouldn't of stayed a wimp for long in that situation but anime is anime, what can you do?

Of course I am!

yea exactly, just give me an OVA with the fucking zone and ill be happy

I used to search for longer airing or ongoing shows but resently i've abandoned this since most of the long airing shows start to repeat themselves and generally become quite bad

I hope food porn gets at least one or two more sesons i have a feeling there might be alot of stuff that could still happen

well ill check it out but i really really hate annoying or useless chars
thats why i couldnt enjoy katekyo hitman that little cow faggot and the awkwardnes of the main char just didnt do it for me

yea i've heard i'm really looking forward to it, hope its as good as the first one

no worries my friend
if i may ask where are you from and how old are you?
#44 - ichigoichie (11/16/2015) [-]
I started out watching long anime because I thought if I watched all the long anime I wanted to then I could watch more anime afterwards because the only ones I'd want to watch would be short ones haha. But yeah, battle shounens tend to suffer from that.

Food porn is a shounen jump manga so it'll definitely get another season, the question is when! I definitely need to see the rest of the autumn elections animated!

It gets good around episode 6/8? Idk if you'll like it but alot of other people seem to :p
Katekyo Hitman Reborn is one of my favourite battle shounens, damn haha, I see what you mean though about Lambo being annoying and Tsuna being cringey af.

There's alot of twists coming up that should be in next season!

Channel 4's and Emipre Magazine's list are both polls that poll laymen, not lists made by experts in the industry. IGN should never be taken seriously...

You still said that it influenced the majority of anime, when that influence cannot be found almost anywhere. What is this influence you're speaking of? As we've already established, many similar anime to Akira came out years before it.

Ahead of it's time? It's an archetypical cyberpunk and is itself inspired by lots of American cyberpunk.

I never called them experts, my words were "popular and well respected".

Influence in the form of ideas and contributing to a new style of animation which contrasted to the style WB and Disney, I say contributed as like you said there were other OVA's and anime which had gory and dark atmospheres. Like I said earlier, it lead to more adult anime being made such as Ghost in the shell and Cowboy Bebop which incorporated Akira's dark, realistic and heavily violent tone. In particular Akira challenged the idea that Westerners had of animation, which was that it was made for cuteness and children.

As well as an increase in dark adult themed anime/manga, it also changed and influenced how anime was made. Unlike shows like Speed Racer which had unnatural animation, Akira chose to use over 160,000 animation cells to avoid still frames making it more realistic. Before Akira most animated films and shows were out of sync in terms of voice acting because they recorded the voices after animating, those working on Akira did the animation afterwards to make the dialogue fit with the animation. The actual cinematography was pretty revolutionary too, Akira used camera techniques used in actual films such as panning and zooming in which was unheard of in animation. The majority of anime use these techniques, which is what I meant by "ahead of its time".

Channel 4's 2005 poll of the 100 greatest cartoons which included cartoon shows and films, Akira came in at number 16. Empire magazine's list of the 500 greatest movies of all time and 100 best films of world cinema had Akira at number 440 and 51 respectively. IGN also named it 14th on its list of Top 25 Animated Movies of All-Time.

Besides The Matrix, Akira was also an influence for Looper, Chronicle and Tetsuo: The Iron Man.

You must've misinterpreted me, just because I said influenced the majority of anime and manga today doesn't mean I said it was the sole major influence, thats like me saying Studio Ghibli was a major influence to Walt Disney and meaning it was THE most influential factor. I also said Akira Toriyama, Osamu Tezuka and Hayao Miyazaki influenced alot of anime/manga in a similar manner so that wasn't what I meant.

I explained it was influential as it's a major landmark in anime which helped to increase foreign interest in anime and was generally applauded by critics for being ahead of it's time.

Well you were talking about the animated movies that are best regarded, and Disney movies get much higher scores than Akira. If you were talking about the most well regarded anime movies that'd be a different matter.

Eh, you cite two anime that came out a decade and 7 years later, respectively. That's not much to go on. GitS was also directed by Mamoru Oshii who had been directing violent and "mature" anime before Akira even came out: see Patlabor, Dallos, Urusei yatsura movie 2. The 80's had tons of violent movies and OVAs before Akira, it's only in the West that Akira has this status.
The Matrix was more influenced by GitS IIRC, and that's still only one movie.

I was originally talking about anime movies but when I researched Akira it said that it is often regarded as one of the best animated movies.

All I'm saying is that it's pretty influential in the same manner that alot of mangaka cite Akira Toriyama, Osamu Tezuka and Hayao Miyazaki. "It's only in the West that Akira has this status", I never said it was influential in any one country, also even if GitS had a greater impact on The Matrix, there was still an influence from Akira.

I also stated that Akira was influential and was applauded for other reasons, not just being a cited influence by people in anime/manga industry.

I explained it was influential as it's a major landmark in anime which helped to increase foreign interest in anime and was generally applauded by critics for being ahead of it's time.

Channel 4's and Emipre Magazine's list are both polls that poll laymen, not lists made by experts in the industry. IGN should never be taken seriously...

You still said that it influenced the majority of anime, when that influence cannot be found almost anywhere. What is this influence you're speaking of? As we've already established, many similar anime to Akira came out years before it.

Ahead of it's time? It's an archetypical cyberpunk and is itself inspired by lots of American cyberpunk.

I never called them experts, my words were "popular and well respected".

Influence in the form of ideas and contributing to a new style of animation which contrasted to the style WB and Disney, I say contributed as like you said there were other OVA's and anime which had gory and dark atmospheres. Like I said earlier, it lead to more adult anime being made such as Ghost in the shell and Cowboy Bebop which incorporated Akira's dark, realistic and heavily violent tone. In particular Akira challenged the idea that Westerners had of animation, which was that it was made for cuteness and children.

As well as an increase in dark adult themed anime/manga, it also changed and influenced how anime was made. Unlike shows like Speed Racer which had unnatural animation, Akira chose to use over 160,000 animation cells to avoid still frames making it more realistic. Before Akira most animated films and shows were out of sync in terms of voice acting because they recorded the voices after animating, those working on Akira did the animation afterwards to make the dialogue fit with the animation. The actual cinematography was pretty revolutionary too, Akira used camera techniques used in actual films such as panning and zooming in which was unheard of in animation. The majority of anime use these techniques, which is what I meant by "ahead of its time".

Akira has an average rating of 7.5 on RT which is an aggregator of reviews. It can't hold a candle to most movies by Disney.
Like it's a pretty good score, but over a hundred movies get around that score every year.
I would definitely not say that it influenced the majority of animanga out today. The majority of anime airing every season are set in HS and are either romantic comedies, SoL or harem, not something that any influences can be linked to Akira.
You're also forgetting the very large amount of anime aimed at the smaller kids like Precure and Yokai Watch. How could they be influenced by something as violent and cyberpunk as Akira?

User avatar
#75 - ichigoichie (11/16/2015) [-]
I think it's a little unfair to compare Akira to Disney, the most they share is that they're both animated and are movies. Disney movies are incredibly popular and are more well known, even if a Disney movie isn't that good it still wouldn't be a flop because of it being Disney. I won't go on too much about Akira vs Disney movies though.

Even if it didn't influence many anime it still had a huge influence on anime in general, it bought about a lot of the popularity received by iconic anime from the time such as Cowboy Bebop and Ghost in the Shell because it proved to people that there was a market for such things. It was also a heavy influence for the Matrix.

#81 - kokkoderrisch (11/16/2015) [-]
Well you were talking about the animated movies that are best regarded, and Disney movies get much higher scores than Akira. If you were talking about the most well regarded anime movies that'd be a different matter.

Eh, you cite two anime that came out a decade and 7 years later, respectively. That's not much to go on. GitS was also directed by Mamoru Oshii who had been directing violent and "mature" anime before Akira even came out: see Patlabor, Dallos, Urusei yatsura movie 2. The 80's had tons of violent movies and OVAs before Akira, it's only in the West that Akira has this status.
The Matrix was more influenced by GitS IIRC, and that's still only one movie.

#82 - ichigoichie (11/16/2015) [-]
I was originally talking about anime movies but when I researched Akira it said that it is often regarded as one of the best animated movies.

All I'm saying is that it's pretty influential in the same manner that alot of mangaka cite Akira Toriyama, Osamu Tezuka and Hayao Miyazaki. "It's only in the West that Akira has this status", I never said it was influential in any one country, also even if GitS had a greater impact on The Matrix, there was still an influence from Akira.

I also stated that Akira was influential and was applauded for other reasons, not just being a cited influence by people in anime/manga industry.

By whom?

This is what you said earlier: "influenced the majority of anime and manga today"
Not just "pretty influential", but THE most influential anime was what I was getting out of your comment.
You've still to explain how it's even been "pretty influential" though.

Increasing the number of anime movies being brought to the US is true.

Channel 4's 2005 poll of the 100 greatest cartoons which included cartoon shows and films, Akira came in at number 16. Empire magazine's list of the 500 greatest movies of all time and 100 best films of world cinema had Akira at number 440 and 51 respectively. IGN also named it 14th on its list of Top 25 Animated Movies of All-Time.

Besides The Matrix, Akira was also an influence for Looper, Chronicle and Tetsuo: The Iron Man.

yea i know thats what buggs me, on one hand i really want it but on the other hand if they just wing it with the anime that doesnt follow the manga it could turn out shitty
at least i can hope the rest of them get another season
oh and i also thought about that if kuroko would enter the zone he should be able to dissapear completely like a teleportation that would be so dope someone would have to shovel all the jizz out of my room

i strongly recomend Nanatsu no Taizai its a fun lil show

i agree completelly, i never really got around to watching slice of life anime or sports anime but when i saw Daily lives of high school boys and KnB i was hooked

I loved everything about gangsta until I actually started watching it, I had potential to be one of the best shows but it just whent up in flames

hmm well so far nothing special, there is alot of hype around fate series so i'll stick with it for some time, but we shall see
oh and if you plan on watching it start with zero(2011) -> UBW (2014) -> heavens feels (movie), i had to do some research be4 starting and found out this might be the best way to watch it

Oh and since you mentioned Shokugeki no Soma, i fucking loved it, i really like shows where main chars have their shit together and i hate useless side chars. they make me cringe

I havent really watched that many shows with girls as main chars since im used to them being clumsy and useless so im afraid that the show would be shit (that was a bit sexist but i cant help it) haha

well thank you for the recomendation and i've watched Assassination Classroom and loved it

(oh and sorry for all the spelling mistakes)



User avatar
#42 - ichigoichie (11/16/2015) [-]
Yeah I guess I'd rather KnB just stop, I'd rather it be a great anime series instead of it slowly turning into something like Naruto where it is produced over and over for the sake of it. At least "Extra game" might be adapted into an OVA or something.

What imagery

I look forward to watching NnT! Same here, I never used to like SoL but Daily Lives really got me into the genre, shame no SoL lives up to it haha. KnB got me into sports anime as well and turned the genre into one of my favourites!

Too bad it did.

Yeah, reddit has a neat watching plan, I'll probably watch Deen's version of F/S N before Ufotables for full effect haha. I'll try it out but I'll try to go in with low expectations considering how hyped it is, it may end up just being over hyped.

I agree, Soma is such a good MC, it's also one of the only anime where I love all the characters, even the side characters aren't ignored and equally have their time to shine.

It's unfortunate that so many anime have weak females but if you're looking for anime with strong female leads then try Akatsuki no Yona (the MC develops from a sheltered bratty princess to a really bad ass strong willed heroine looking to save a kingdom), it is a shoujo so you might not like it if shoujo isn't your thing but either way it's one of my favourites.

No problem! Season 2 is coming out soon if you didn't know!

(Sorry for mine haha, I didn't proof read this so it's probably a bit messed up)



#43 - sanbonzakura (11/16/2015) [-]
yea exactly, just give me an OVA with the fucking zone and ill be happy

I used to search for longer airing or ongoing shows but resently i've abandoned this since most of the long airing shows start to repeat themselves and generally become quite bad

I hope food porn gets at least one or two more sesons i have a feeling there might be alot of stuff that could still happen

well ill check it out but i really really hate annoying or useless chars
thats why i couldnt enjoy katekyo hitman that little cow faggot and the awkwardnes of the main char just didnt do it for me

yea i've heard i'm really looking forward to it, hope its as good as the first one

no worries my friend
if i may ask where are you from and how old are you?
#44 - ichigoichie (11/16/2015) [-]
I started out watching long anime because I thought if I watched all the long anime I wanted to then I could watch more anime afterwards because the only ones I'd want to watch would be short ones haha. But yeah, battle shounens tend to suffer from that.

Food porn is a shounen jump manga so it'll definitely get another season, the question is when! I definitely need to see the rest of the autumn elections animated!

It gets good around episode 6/8? Idk if you'll like it but alot of other people seem to :p
Katekyo Hitman Reborn is one of my favourite battle shounens, damn haha, I see what you mean though about Lambo being annoying and Tsuna being cringey af.

There's alot of twists coming up that should be in next season!

UK, 18, you?

#45 - sanbonzakura (11/17/2015) [-]
i did it cause i wanted one good story to last forever but insted of dieing a hero it keeps living as an asshole

i tots agree i wanna see what happens and how Soma beats everybody

haha dont get me wrong most of the side chars are pretty good excep for fucking joung lambo and the motherfucking MC even lambo gets his shit together when he grows up. but tsuna just kinds stay a lil bitch throughout the series even tho he has an amazing power

huhu i cant w8

It happens

Yeah, I'm so used to having goody goody MCs that it's nice to have a cocky, OP (in terms of cooking) MC!

I get what you mean but to be fair to Tsuna he does get his shit together when he's like 24 it's just a shame it's not shown, also dying will Tsuna more than makes up for his awkardness for me

Haha nice

yea so far i love soma and saitama is also a baws

oh yea i almost forgot about the future selves, those mofos are pretty bamf
but i have a feeling that if someone is put in that situation he can not stay a whimp for so long, the same goest for the guy from mirrai nikki that lil bitch saw so many people die and he was still a pussy

and yea you're right about his dying will

#48 - ichigoichie (11/18/2015) [-]
True and true

Yeah, shame we didn't really see them though except for a short moment when Tsuna first arrived in the future

Again to be fair to yuki he kinda stepped it up towards the end but before that he was so god damn annoying, I agree that he wouldn't of stayed a wimp for long in that situation but anime is anime, what can you do?

Of course I am!

Do you use MAL?
User avatar
#49 - sanbonzakura (11/18/2015) [-]
there are quite a few shows that have the wrong chars as MC
yea but i dont want to watch like 20 episodes of a lil wimp so he can develope a some backbone in the last 4 episodes, cmon what kind of character development is that?

hmm i use it when im searching for sutable anime that i have to watch, it hase a nice summary and it shows ratings but thats abaut all i use it for
am i missing out on something?
#52 - ichigoichie (11/23/2015) [-]
Couldn't reply anymore so here I am!

No worries, reply whenever you can

Fair enough, the ending was pretty bitter annoying, I didn't like it personally even though I don't mind bitter sweet endings.

True that, that X burner was fucking epic, the "Tsuna Awakens" OST always made his bad ass moments even more enjoyable for me!

Yeah I get what you mean, I still look now and then, if they score an anime highly and I see another anime they've watched and rated highly then I'll try it out. Similar tastes and all that.

I'm finishing off Evangelion for the second time as well as Yamada-kun to 7-nin majo, Utawarerumono and Log Horizon, I'll probably watch Magi in time for next season and then the F/S N series, I'm a sucker for awesome fight scenes and visuals.

#50 - ichigoichie (11/18/2015) [-]
True, it's not very often I see great character development in long anime but maybe I'm just watching the wrong shows. I see what you mean, it was so frustrating watching Yuki be a pussy for like 20 something episodes and unlike tsuna, his cool moments didn't atone for his shit moments.

Not really, it's a good website and all but I was just wondering. I like looking at other peoples anime lists every now and then to see their tastes and what new anime to watch haha.
#51 - sanbonzakura (11/22/2015) [-]
first off im sorry for taking so long ot respond

and yea same here, but lets stay optimistic
yea, i mena i didnt really watch that far cuz i wondered how long is he gonna stay a whimp and when MAL said its almost to the end i just quit haha

tsuna really did pull of complete 180° when he fought

me 2, but with years i began to understand that i cant really trust any of those list 100%
oh and i watcher fate/zero and now im on UBW and imo the series is not bad but its far from waht its cracked up to be
some of the fights are really awesome tho and since im a sucker for great visual effects im gonna stick with it

How's everything going?
User avatar #116 to #95 - ichigoichie (01/11/2016) [-]
Ohhh I see, that seems a little cruel though if I'm understanding correctly, if they're accepted into the university but don't get into the program it must be upsetting despite there being other similar courses.

In the UK you apply for 5 courses at universities, they'll either accept or decline you based on target grades and potential, if accepted you have a place on that course, as long as you get the required grades they offered you then you're in. Is it like that in Canada?
User avatar #117 to #116 - tridaak ONLINE (01/11/2016) [-]
Hmm, they accept/decline you when applying to the uni for the program. I had ~90% average in last grade of highschool, so I had no problem getting in.

Then when selecting your major is another place where they can accept or decline you. So, it can be upsetting.
User avatar #118 to #117 - ichigoichie (01/11/2016) [-]
The first stage you go through is basically the whole process for the UK it seems. How long is your course?

And what program are you thinking of taking?
User avatar #125 to #124 - ichigoichie (01/12/2016) [-]
Yeah I'm only 17 at the moment

I've applied for 3 courses because I wasn't entirely sure about what I wanted to do, I originally applied for psychology, crime scene investigation and computer science with forensics, after I applied I realised that I didn't want to do psychology so I have 3 out of 5 universities I'm realistically looking at choosing.

Im glad, and thought exam periods were over. When does the next semester start for you?
User avatar #98 to #97 - ichigoichie (01/11/2016) [-]
They're mock exams but they're still fairly important, if you do bad on them you get shoved onto a timetable to help you or get made to do extra classes/sessions. I also don't want to face the wrath of my teachers. Saying all that I probably should've revised a lot more, it wouldn't surprise me if I've done terribly.

Uh I think semesters are school terms right? In that case we started one at the beginning of January. Not sure when my next one starts.

Anyway how've you been?
User avatar #99 to #98 - tridaak ONLINE (01/11/2016) [-]

User avatar #101 to #100 - tridaak ONLINE (01/11/2016) [-]
Ehh, at certain times... Will admit that the relationship would have been way better if I was actually there.
But aside from that, at least for me. It hasn't been hard at all. We've been at it for a bit over a year now, and as time passes, it becomes easier.

And yea, just took the year off. Cause of certain choices I made the previous year (trying to skip out on additional fees), it wouldn't have been convenient for me to take that year of studies.
User avatar #102 to #101 - ichigoichie (01/11/2016) [-]
That's pretty sweet, glad it's working out for you anyway. Do you ever plan to move there if it gets more serious?

Sounds complicated even though it probably isn't haha, what are fees like on average for university in Canada (That is where you live isn't it?)
User avatar #103 to #102 - tridaak ONLINE (01/11/2016) [-]
I want her to move here first, as it's easier for a American to become a Canadian than a Canadian to become an American. But eventually would want to move there.

Okay, so where I am, the university costs about $7000/year.
If you're in a 'deregulated' program, you have to have good grades and pay an extra fee, the extra fee depends on the program. Commerce (business) is about $10k extra. So instead of paying $7k, you pay $17k per year.
And you choose your program/major starting second year. So knowing this I was like, that is totally not good (I knew there was an additional cost, but not that much). So come second year, I picked my major as Astronomy (just some random program so that they don't charge me extra). But while there, I took all business related courses, except for 2, which are exclusive for that program. Which I was planning to take that summer. (That way I would have only paid the regular fee, and come summer I would start paying the higher fee)

But due to switching in and out of commerce, I missed my chance to take the course in the summer, since I wasn't able to get into the program in time, which lead me to get into the program right before normal classes started. But I did not want to, because then I would have taken the year 2 courses that I missed, which are prerequisites for courses that I would have for the next two years, so would have been a waste...
User avatar #104 to #103 - ichigoichie (01/11/2016) [-]
Ah you learn something new everyday! Hope it works out for you.

Jesus christ $7k is so cheap! $17k is a lot closer to how much my course will cost though, seems reasonable in comparison even though asking that much for university is theft.

Unlucky, still too complicated even though you gave me a good explanation haha, maybe because I'm too tired, I got the jist of it though.

User avatar #105 to #104 - tridaak ONLINE (01/11/2016) [-]
Not cheap for us... In montreal, it's only like $2k/year
User avatar #106 to #105 - ichigoichie (01/11/2016) [-]
That's only £970 holy **** ! Is that per year or are you speaking monthly, if it's per year then wow, lucky!!

Pretty much every full-time course here is £9,000 although there are a few exclusions where it can be up to £11,000 because it's a more prestigious university or a harder degree.

Do you have to pay yourself or can you apply for student finance?
User avatar #107 to #106 - tridaak ONLINE (01/11/2016) [-]
It's per year.... they pay that much per year...

And we get 30% financing. Not sure how it is in Quebec (province montreal is in)
User avatar #108 to #107 - ichigoichie (01/11/2016) [-]
That's insane, would you consider that cheap or expensive?

Interesting, we get student finance which is split into course costs, accomodation costs and a maintenance loan to live pretty much. How much you get all depends on how much your parents earn, whether you have children, a disability etc. All the money is payed back naturally but in monthly sums relative to how much you're earning.
User avatar #109 to #108 - tridaak ONLINE (01/11/2016) [-]

User avatar #110 to #109 - ichigoichie (01/11/2016) [-]
True but for something so cheap there must be a downside..

Is the teaching poorer or are they lower ranking universities?

Do you stay in accommodation or do you commute?
User avatar #111 to #110 - tridaak ONLINE (01/11/2016) [-]
I commute, and they have no downside. They have one of the best medical schools in the world among other things.

Ah how unusual, do you mean as in 1000 students for all the courses, or 1000 students are accepted into the university who've applied solely to your program?
User avatar #115 to #114 - tridaak ONLINE (01/11/2016) [-]
1000 who've applied for the program. Thing is, they have other similar courses that are more open for everyone, so pretty much the 700 who don't make the cut will either take another year in hopes of getting their grades up, or go for one of the similar programs that don't have that requirement.

User avatar #78 to #77 - ichigoichie (03/29/2015) [-]
I hadn't watched anime for about 3 weeks until today, I guess I kinda just went through one of those times where you just go off anime a bit then mass watch it for a while

all day everyday ;) I was just rewatching the fast and furious films in time for the new one, then I watched the first LOTR film c:
User avatar #79 to #78 - animekami (03/29/2015) [-]
i totally know how you feel!
honestly it only happens cause I struggle to find an anime i like :l

and pleease tell me that wasnt the first time you saw LOTR D:
User avatar #80 to #79 - ichigoichie (03/29/2015) [-]
Yeah, it usually happens to me when I watch too many anime at once, usually weekly anime or when I'm watching really long anime

I'm ashamed to say it was! I've been meaning to watch them for god knows how many years but I kept putting it off, finally decided today was the day!
#82 to #80 - animekami (03/29/2015) [-]

If you need more info on them just ask because that wasn't very helpful of me
User avatar #59 to #58 - tridaak ONLINE (02/26/2015) [-]
Mmm, it's plenty helpful, I guess. Although what is Barakamon about?
You said it was one of your favorites
User avatar #60 to #59 - ichigoichie (02/26/2015) [-]
A young calligrapher basically gets told his work is "textbook" by an old man at the gallery out of anger he punches him and gets told to go sort himself out. The calligrapher goes to a really remote island thats full of country folk and he finds a new style of calligraphy. It's just really funny and light hearted to me, the story is unique and doesn't take over the show. I don't usually like comedy slice of life anime but this one is really good imo.
User avatar #61 to #60 - tridaak ONLINE (02/26/2015) [-]
Oh sounds interesting, thanks. Guess I'll watch that next
User avatar #62 to #61 - ichigoichie (02/26/2015) [-]
make sure you tell me what you think!
User avatar #52 to #51 - tridaak ONLINE (02/25/2015) [-]
I always wanted to watch it, then saw a gif of it, and was like why the heck haven't I watched it already?!?
And yes, pretty funny, relaxed, cool. And plenty of stuff going around them to make it interesting and exciting Overall, good anime
User avatar #16 - tridaak ONLINE (02/24/2015) [-]
Yooooooooooooooooooooooo Just wanted to let you know that Im loving them comps, seeing them more and more.
Anywho, here's the updated OC guide: www.tridaak.com/oc/ well kinda, still working on it. But comp section will say **** .

Just be sure to include sources on your comps and you should be good. Also, how long does it take you to make the comps, if you dont mind me asking?
User avatar #18 to #16 - ichigoichie (02/24/2015) [-]
It depends, I can't exactly specify a time because I gather all the facts on a specific subject roughly 150-200 on wider subjects e.g. anime in general or around 50 for anime specific comps e.g. naruto, then I gather pictures for each fact and resize them all so they're the same then randomly allocate a fact to a comp so all that can take up to 4 days but once all my comps are preset it takes around 10/20 minutes to upload and stuff
User avatar #19 to #18 - tridaak ONLINE (02/24/2015) [-]
Alright, when you gather them, include the sources beneath you fact
IE:
-DragonBall is one of the best anime
tridaak.com/dragonballfact
-Attack on titan used to be really good, but now it sucks
aotmanga.com/readhowmuchitsucks

then when uploading the comp, you put the facts underneath (like on the very last description or something). People can then check where you got your facts from, and you can get OC rewards.
#23 to #19 - include (02/24/2015) [-]
ichigoichie it has to be two or more sources.
User avatar #24 to #23 - tridaak ONLINE (02/24/2015) [-]
Basically. The OC guide states 3 sources tho :|
"The person posting should include at least 3 sources."
So uhh, let's go with 3.
User avatar #25 to #24 - include (02/24/2015) [-]
3 is too much, you can't find good sources.
User avatar #26 to #25 - tridaak ONLINE (02/24/2015) [-]
thelizardlord has like 8 for some of his comps Ill get to them bae
User avatar #32 to #26 - thelizardlord (02/24/2015) [-]

User avatar #43 to #32 - tridaak ONLINE (02/24/2015) [-]
Bae, plz. Im still working on the guide. But I will get to them, no worries.
Although someone else probably marked them, so Ill have to talk to them to change it.
User avatar #27 to #26 - include (02/24/2015) [-]
You can always find good sources for fallout
User avatar #28 to #27 - tridaak ONLINE (02/24/2015) [-]
User avatar #29 to #28 - include (02/24/2015) [-]

Shhh
User avatar #31 to #30 - include (02/24/2015) [-]
Okay, I'll stay quiet
#33 to #31 - ichigoichie (02/24/2015) [-]
Oh boy, are we sticking to 3 or what?
Oh boy, are we sticking to 3 or what?
User avatar #34 to #33 - include (02/24/2015) [-]
I guess unless, it's somehow okay by tridaak to have 2 links
User avatar #35 to #34 - tridaak ONLINE (02/24/2015) [-]
#37 to #35 - ichigoichie (02/24/2015) [-]
c'mon tridaak make it 2
c'mon tridaak make it 2
User avatar #40 to #37 - tridaak ONLINE (02/24/2015) [-]
But... all you need is an additional fact from some other source.
At least for now, try to go with 3, until I re-adjust later on.
User avatar #41 to #40 - ichigoichie (02/24/2015) [-]
I'll try haha, btw is it a problem getting alot of facts from one website or just the wording of them?
User avatar #42 to #41 - tridaak ONLINE (02/24/2015) [-]
www.funnyjunk.com/channel/fallout/The+new+and+improved+fallout/dgtXLqt/99#99
Really doesnt matter the website, but now many pages

And please uhh clarify the question IDK if that was the answer you were looking for.
User avatar #44 to #42 - ichigoichie (02/24/2015) [-]
ehhhh kinda, I mean I got quite a few facts from a single paged website but I rewrote the facts would that be alright?
User avatar #45 to #44 - tridaak ONLINE (02/24/2015) [-]
Then spread them out through several comps.

Lets say you get 20 facts from a.com 10 from b.com and 5 from c.com
Then you can make up to 5 comps that fit all the standards.
Each one with:
4 facts from a.com
2 facts from b.com
1 fact from c.com

Really all we want is some sort of evidence that you went around and looked for the facts. (Way I showed follows all rules and is pretty simple)
#36 to #35 - include (02/24/2015) [-]
I just thought if it's hard to find 3 sources you'll settle for two.
User avatar #38 to #36 - tridaak ONLINE (02/24/2015) [-]
YOU THOUGHT NOTHING
But for now we're sticking to 3, I'll see how many posts we get that get approved, and adjust from there.
User avatar #39 to #38 - include (02/24/2015) [-]
Okay Okay, let me know how that turns out.
User avatar #20 to #19 - ichigoichie (02/24/2015) [-]
I'll try but considering I've already gathered all my facts for the next 20 or so comps I can't remember, I remember a few though, thanks for the heads up
User avatar #21 to #20 - tridaak ONLINE (02/24/2015) [-]
mmm, guess it'll have to be for next time then. Well, good luck with your comps, and like I said I really enjoy them
User avatar #22 to #21 - ichigoichie (02/24/2015) [-]
yeah I guess :p thanks glad you enjoy them!
