The Big MI Discussion Topic

[SCOTU]

There are parts that I think should have been toned down, but like I felt that as with most mangas it just went deeper than the anime did

Well, that tends to happen you make an adaptation. If you actually try to do something else, then people hate on you for being different than the original source. Kinda a lose-lose. Although I have to admit, I typically find anime base off of VNs better than anime based off of manga. That could just be because VNs tend to be better than manga

 

[KenniSpam!]

Did they kick out of the IL/WI thread or something?

almost everyone has me blocked so my trolling mostly goes unnoticed these days

I blocked kennispam

it begins

@scotu-is the quote in your sig a homage to the higurashi OP?

 

[Ori_bro]

[Ori_bro]

I agree 100% esp the last part, if the original wasn't the manga then I always watch the anime over it.

Are you going to be at Youmacon?

 

[MegaRobMan]

Yo, Tech, Lions-football-tickets-ask-your-roommate

 

[Ori_bro]

Eden of the East is great! I'm on the final episode, and man is it great.

 

[Sailor Princess Twenty-Two.]

There's two movies after the last episode

 

[Ori_bro]

Oh there are? I will watch those soon then. I'm almost done with episode 11.

 

[SCOTU]

Are you going to be at Youmacon?

VNs, Games, Movies/TV are the best forms of expression, followed closely by Music and Still Art. Things like books, comics have this tendency to be just worse versions of the other ones.

I almost was going to go to Youmacon, but it didn't isn't going to have will happening.

 

[Ori_bro]

Just finished Eden, it was fantastic. i will definitely be watching the movies for sure.

 

[Oro?!]

See I think it's the exact opposite Scotu, because books leave things open for interpretation, but people todays are too ****ing ******** to think for themselves or draw conclusions from the arguments presented to them.

 

[SCOTU]

On the contrary, I believe a VN is just a strictly better version of a book that has the ability to much better set a mood via use of music that a book can never compete with. You can do everything you can with a book with a VN and more. Games are unique in that they actually directly put the player in the author spot of their own piece of art. I'm tempted to move Movies/TV down to the tier of Music/ Still Art, but motion graphics, music, sound effects can all provide an experience, setting, and feel that no other medium can (without being interactive).

What you have pointed out as your strong points for books can also be implemented in other mediums just as well, it's just not mandatory, and thus isn't done as frequently.

 

[Pimp Daddy Supreme]

dragonball GT will always be the best anime

 

[Soloist]

Tentacle porn in pretty cool.

[Apasher]

Tentacle porn in pretty cool.

Turning off my computer for eternity now.

 

[SCOTU]

I've been told tentacle porn originated from a ban of penises in japanese pornography. Penisis were replaced by the (for some reason) more legal tentacle. During this time it turned into a fetish, so that when the penis ban was lifted, it stuck as a valid fetish.

 

[Pimp Daddy Supreme]

yo smashfest at my place tomorrow

 

[Hot_ArmS]

im comin, whose driving

 

[Roller]

I mean, I guess I could go...

 

[Dre the Ace]

[Pimp Daddy Supreme]

[Roller]

[Roller]

It's all weekend.

 

[Pimp Daddy Supreme]

also, i got an iphone and its sweet, but it keeps changing 'yo' to 'to' WHAT THE **** that alone makes it almost useless to me. quadruples the time it takes me to text at least

 

[Ori_bro]

Just turn of autocorrect

 

[Hot_ArmS]

or just register 'yo' to your phones dictionary

 

[ZTD | TECHnology]

Yo should be recognized as a legitimate dictionary entry in all forms.

 

[What's The Point]

Youmacon is out because I don't want to wait through rush hour to then wait through a registration line.
