So .

Playing Mario party with friends and
DK was in first. He stole a star from me and EVERYONE ganged up on him till he had but 1 coin left.
I had an item to start a duel with by the last turn.

I could have gone for Yoshi and their riches.

But no.

I dueled DK for that one sweet singular coin on and oh boy

how the great fall

and I still earned second.
Chaotic good in a nutshell

Considering lots of other cases of sexual assault, evidence doesn't really matter as people will still go "OH YEAH? I DIDN'T SEE THIS EVIDENCE SO IT MUSTN'T EXIST!" like with **** like Brent Kavanaugh, Vic Mignonga. CK Louis, John Lassiter, Tsunenori Aoki, R Kelly, etc.
Hell in the case of Tsunenori Aoki the guy was caught, got suspended and is now able to get his career back like the Ruoni Kenshin guy
The Rurouni Kenshin guy benefited from very lax laws in Japan regarding possession of that kind of stuff. To my knowledge he got the full extent of the law. The law just doesn't do much.

Really like Joker, not happy with the limited music selection can you unlock more songs?

Side note kingdom hearts 3 is really childish and too easy even on hard Imo. Very disappointed as a huge fan of the first two games.

There's also the Toriko guy as he had sex with a minor and Japan outlaws sex with people under 18. He got jailed for it but got out and made a career afterwards

Nope. There are literally countless allegations for well over a decade and they even had multiple "Family Guy makes a joke about Kevin Spacey" things with Sean Schemmel and Sonny Straight having a made-up character who's name is almost identical to Vic's who's a pedophile and the Ghost Stories dub has a character assume one of the teenage girls get knocked up by a 'Vic Mignongna lookalike while yelling "Fullmetal disgusting is what that is!". And again, Funimation did an investigation, meaning if they found he's innocent they wouldn't fire him
There's enough strangeness going on that Vic is suing the company.

For better and for worse it's going to court.

The truth seems to be wrapped in lies. It just needs to be proven who was lying.
I mean, I personally know people who have been harassed by him.
Got a lot of friends who frequent cons, and even at the one I went to that Vic also happened to be at one of my friends told me they witnessed him harassing a high schooler or something
Hmmmmmm...........


Alright, I'm not saying Vic is fully innocent, I still did hear alot of bad stuff about him, but I also heard alot of crappy stuff coming from others parties against him, with lies and made-up stories to make what he did worse than it truly is, so, until he is proved innocent or guilty by the court and more information are up.

I will just say this
and go off this discussion before something bad is said.

Nope. People gladly push "Lol in Japan they're legal when they're 13" but as it turns out it isn't as no part of Japan actually allows that nasty ass ****. It's similar to "Lol Japan doesn't care about LGBT stuff" when there are multiple LGBT people in the Japanese government as of late (I believe at least 5) and Japanese people are sueing the country for not allowing LGBT marriage.

I like Smash, I like anime, I like Japanese music, etc

But there’s a reason why I don’t typically involve myself heavily with the majority of those fandoms or communities, this social thread notwithstanding

*every* community has some proportion of really loud toxic folks, and a lot of the time what they do or how they act is basically inexcusable

Damn, not even ADV Films had a controversy that bad, and those guys had to split up their own company to evade the bill Sojitz saddled them with.

And of course, the toxic people are those that outsiders pay the most attention to.

I'm personally against, like, blacklisting convicted felons for life after they've served their time. If the time wasn't enough, change the law. Public figures are different-- giving someone famous their same job is essentially publicly condoning the actions-- but for normal people getting out after a sentence, getting any job is insanely more difficult, voting rights are stripped away in many states, and they're highly more likely to turn back to some sort of crime as a result.

I'd commit suicide too, if the series I was in got crummier animation in later seasons.

As far as I'm concerned, if the girl isn't old enough to have proper boobs, it's a severe "no touchy". Nuff said.

It's false to equate the hair vertex cache with keyframed joints just because they're both related to animation. They are fundamentally different systems.

A vertex cache animation only functions with the specific model it was created for. It cannot be ported to another model. You cannot change even a single vertex in the model, or the cache will break. But a joint animation, by contrast, is easily ported between every skeleton with the same naming convention, and it is standard practice to keep all skeletons in a pipeline built with the same hierarchy for this very reason.

If you've ever looked at modding Smash, you'll see this in action. It's very easy to attach any given model to another skeleton and have them use those animations. But many amateur modders are completely incapable of including face animations in their mods, because those are not handled by the skeletal animations, but instead by vertex shifted blend shapes. These cannot be ported from one model to the next, and have to be created entirely from scratch for the new model.

But it's a moot point, because the file that would be being reused in this scenario is not the animation. The animation is clearly labeled "Jane." It belongs to her. The file that would be being reused here would be Jack's character model, and as stated, that's just not how it works.
I think those are good points. He did add some other things yesterday too..
wilddvine is trying to find a case where they would've copied over the whole thing and used the files without renaming them. or quote:
"The developer working on this particular Jane file doesn't bother to change the Jackc06 file they're working in to simulate ponytail physics because it's still mostly Joker's file, and they're going to rename it to Jane once they're done anyways. However, the new animation is given a Jane name because it's an all-new animation that Joker doesn't have. "

So it's pretty specific and even if it's odd, there could maybe be a way for them to make the model on top of joker's and not bother changing the name of the files. I know it sounds weird, but I'm just trying to entertain the possibility.
Let's say that would somehow be something they somehow do, I suppose in that case it'd be a new model with the old animations aside from it, but I'm wondering what you think about that.

For me it doesn't make too much sense that they wouldn't rename the file even in that case. The development and modeling process is too big of a task and takes long, and especially at certain points they would make different iterations and need to share certain versions with the team, and it'd be confusing if they didn't at least add version numbers. Would they really add that to the file without changing the 'jack' part of the name? That'd be super weird.

And we can see from the file they found itself that there are version numbers and more numbers probably for other distinctions, so I'd find it hard to think that they wouldn't do the same for other character projects they're working on. That's my thought on it right now anyway.

It'll get funny when next year's Olympics hit, just imagine all the outsiders who expect Japan to be hella weird, only for them to see everything be so clean and normal.

Hence the double standard people have in regards to these issues. High profile figures get off so much easier compared to your average person who's life is completely destroyed after something like that. It's so twisted and ****ed up but it still happens in the year 2019.

You really shouldn't use anime or manga of all things as an indication of what a whole nation is like.

Could have told me that earlier, I already wasted my time creating a list of names for when I move to japan and find a Death Note.

Ok just real quick after seeing everything that's come out about DLC before and after Joker I'm just gonna make a hot take and say this is what I think our final DLC pack 1 roster will be:
- Joker
- Luminary (a bit controversial but most of our evidence is pointing to a DQ hero and not specifically Erdrick, and on a financial standpoint putting a more recent hero naked a lot more sense considering people can get the game if they're interested. Thinking this may also be a Corrin-style promotional pick kinda?)
- Leon
- Tales character/Nightmare
- Banjo-Kazooie

Also I'm pissed Vic is still Rohan.

Putting in Luminary over Erdrick is like putting in Noctis over Cloud. It really doesn’t make sense, even as a promotional choice.

I'd be pretty sad if Muppet Vision kicked the bucket, especially considering it was Jim Henson's last major project.
Relevant video for those interested.
