OK. Also i stopped from the four volume if i remember correctly. I don't known why i stopped. Mutli reason probably, and i never see the Anime. I hear homewer that they're we're alot of filler apparently. Like alot of manga adapted in anime. (Pandora Hearts is not a exception, i will say it's worst on some point homewer.)
A lot of anime adaptations tend to be underwhelming compared to the manga. Especially when they put fillers or start diverging from source material just to have a proper ending.

Of course, there are good adaptations as well.

The Blue Exorcist adapts the manga very faithfully, but it quickly diverges from the source, which is underwhelming. Not as bad as Soul Eater, though. For its credit, Blue Exorcist's filler has the characters go through similar development compared to the manga, but the manga has reached the point where all the characters are much more developed than when the anime ended.

The manga still has a lot to tell, which makes the anime underwhelming in comparison.

Anyway, I'll check out Pandora Hearts one day. I also have Angel Beats, Death Parade, Hellsing and Guilty Crown under consideration, so I guess it's one more bullet point on my to-watch/read list.

And with this, I'm off for a while. See ya.

Hi :)

I'm back.

So, they indeed put the wire meaning that.....the rest of the appointments are pretty much checking stuff, the mouth treatment is pretty much done :)

First: why no thread split?

And also, did I missed anything of interest since yesterday?

Imo, I don't mind a clone as long as it's done well (or at least does something new with the idea). Though when it ain't good, then the similarities become all the more glaring.
One Piece is a pretty good Dragon Ball styled series from what little I read admittedly. I think it has enough themes to set itself apart. Characters are also fairly weaker and gain their power a little more slowly, so power gaps aren't too bad. I'll have to get more into it as a whole. Since for the longest time, I ignored it.

YuYu Hakusho was also one of my favorites along with Dragon Ball/DBZ.

That My Hero Academia series is also pretty good. It's main character acts differently from typical Shonen hero. He sort of reminds me of a more nervous Tim Drake, Peter Parker or even Son Gohan to some extent. He's mostly the type of guy who uses his brain rather than charging in head first, which makes him standout.

You missed a rather engaging conversation on the Higgs boson and the eventual Proton death in our universe. It was a thrilling experience and I learned a lot. :troll:

We're going to go up to 2500 pages and then lock the thread. And I don't remember if there was anything from yesterday that was interesting...

I plan on watching as much of Evo as I can. Tekken, Smash, and MK are gonna interest me the most. But I'll keep an eye out for Killer Instinct and Street Fighter as well.

I prefer Cheez Whiz myself. Of all the torture devices sold on the market, I find it to be the most effective.

The only interesting thing that happened yesterday was me getting an unfair warning. :glare:

I remember hearing that remix a while back. It's pretty legit.

Maybe...





But you'll grow barnacles instead. :p
Well Morgan Freeman's freckles are easy to explain. Every time he shows up to make a complicated plot become more simple, he gains another freckle. It is his destiny.

Cosby's probably come from whenever he gives someone some of his special BBQ sauce. There's a secret ingredient in it.
