WTF

And which site do you download manga from?

I use an Android app called Tachiyomi J2K. It's not available on the play store but you can download the apk from GitHub.

Another highlight. All I can ask is why.

I re-read it and it just hit me now. That was cold. (Pun absolutely intended)

But there was something hot about the way she described the process of his death when she killed him.

Kaycee7:
It's for a good cause. He's giving her screen time for my enjoyment. Subaru's my hero

Looks like my joke didn't quite land.

IMAliyu:
Rem is over hyped. I like Ram better.

Unpopular opinion but fvck that psycho b!tch Rem.

Kaycee7:
I love this woman.

Subaru died too many times trying to stop Elsa.
He should just have let it go.

GreatAchiever1:
Still learning bro, but will definitely start with romance when it's time to make a short project

A dating sim. Nice.

GreatAchiever1:
Sometimes I do, even learning how to make some of my own sef

Cool, what genre are you trying to make?

famep:
i have heard of doki doki literature club. What's the download size

Like 700+mb

famep:
Who plays visual novel here? is it worth.which one can i start with?

I've played Song of Saya because it was written by Gen Urobuchi, the creator of Madoka and Psycho Pass Season one. Sh!t got really weird in that one

I've also played Doki Doki Literature Club which was a genuinely good horror VN. I think it was made by an american otaku.

YungAcez:
Someone please recommend anime with loads of sex scene for me.. Plenty plenty ECCHI...���..

And also kindly add me to an anime WhatsApp group chat if y'all on any.. Thanks.. Jah bless

Violent anime from the 80s and 90s have a lot of that. I don't know how consensual most of those scenes are though.

TFW no big tiddy pink gf.
Why even live?

Mark23:
Your summary is on point. I actually prefer Koichi to Deku as an MC. I hope he makes an appearance in the main series someday. And yeah, I'm glad I'm not the only one that noticed Midnight weird vibes (how the hell is she a hero lol).

I love the way the plot ties in with the main series. For example, the Aizawa and Present Mic reveal.

I feel like the series is coming to an end, though.

And it doesn't seem like everyone is coming out of this unscathed.

IMAliyu:
I love the knuckleduster guy.
He proves that someone can still kick ass without superpowers, although he used to have one.
I've already caught up with the chapter releases and waiting to see how things go down in the current arc.

Just caught up today. Damn! Would they go for a tragic or bittersweet ending? Because things look pretty bleak right now

oboy...real fear catch me when I heard the taut they used as Naruto in eng dubbed version of Naruto series....I didnt know when I started to take cover!

I remember mistakingly getting a few episodes of the Bleach in the English dub (I was buying bootleg DVDs then). It sounded like Superbook. It was so bad I had to buy another.

Good dubs exist though. Ghost Stories, Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, Cowboy Bebop, Panty and Stocking (as I've been told), The Disastrous Life of Saiki K, and Shimoneta seemed to have very good dubs.

Fairy Tail, Akatsuki no Yona, and more recently Rising of the Shield Hero and Konosuba had decent dubs but nowhere near as good the original Japanese. Especially Konosuba.

donwizzy7:
u will av to define what u mean by 'inferior' coz it's still d same anime..just d original voicing erased and replaced....so we can say...its d quality and well-acquainted-ness of the eng dubbed voice actors that determines how good it'll be....for example an eng dub voice actors who himself has been watching subbed version and is well acquainted with the japanese culture will do better eng dub voice acting than most others...as we can see in the examples of eng dubbed version of animes like DeathNote, and so on!

It really depends on the talent of the English voice actors and how they deliver their lines.One problem dubbed anime have is that Crunchyroll and Funimation who do most if the dubbing use a limited set of in-house voice actors who don't always stick the landing. As I've said before, there are exceptions, though.

GreatAchiever1:
I dont know y sub watchers discriminate dub watchers...
Am actually cool with anyone

Most dubs are just generally inferior to the subs. Exceptions exist though. But in the end, just watch whatever you want.

donwizzy7:
i dont like streaming.....would rather use d streaming fee to buy external harddrive...and do offline downloading into it. Better for me dat way! Coz dat way i dont have to stream a second time to rewatch the animes.

You can download Netflix shows and watch them offline through the app.

NoonMasamune:
Serious discussion though, if you have the means to pay for anime, manga or light novel, its the least you can do to support your favourite mangaka. There are many studies that show that the animators get paid in peanuts

The least we can do is watch anime from Netflix if we have a subscription. I was actually rewatching Dorohedoro on Netflix when ntel cucked me.

Jake420:
Best anime this year goes tooooooo.....
SHOCKING!!

Based

IMAliyu:
The story basically ended in season 2.
Season 3 felt like beating a dead horse to me.

Season 2 was just the beginning. The game franchise that the series is based on still has a rich story to be told according to it's fans.

Not to sure about a season 4 though since the showrunner recently got metoo'd.

Currently reading Vigilante: Boku no Hero Academia Illegals. It's a spin-off of the main series and is set 5 years. It follows a guy named Koichi who teams up with quirkless badass, Knuckleduster and a wannabe musician, Pop Step to solve street-level crime as vigilantes.

I'd put it on par with the main series. While it's story arcs aren't quite as engaging, I find the characterization of its the cast it introduces to be more nuanced. Koichi is less of a bleeding heart protagonist than Deku. He and Pop Step (who are obviously the one true ship) actually play off each other really well and actually seen to have genuine chemistry. Knuckleduster has an interesting backstory and even supporting characters like Makoto and Captain Celebrity have more depth than you'd originally think.

It's not without flaws though. I feel like it is a little hit or miss with characters from the main series that appear here. All Might didn't have to meet Tsukauchi in this series because their friendship in the main series makes less sense when they've only known each other for five years. I also think that Stain was handled poorly. However, Ingenium, Aizawa, and Midnight were all handled well (even though Midnight has strong pedo vibes).

All in all, if you like the main series chances are that you'll like this one too.

I never go out my way to look for horror manga/anime I only read/watch if I stumble upon them or it gets repeatedly recommended to me because although I'm aware I'll enjoy it (sometimes a lot) if it's good but those kind of works just aren't really my cup of tea...its the same for sad AF slice of life anime - feels too real and depressing - I only give highly recommend ones a reluctant peek (even though I know I'll really enjoy it...) -
PS: isn't going out your way to find something to scare/depress you quite masochistic...though I can't complain since I also end up enjoying such experiences...

I completely get what you're saying. That's why it is important to pace yourself when reading it watching these kinds of stuff. Watch an episode or two of a sad show like 3-Gatsu no Lion then dilute it with something positive like Maid Dragon. The beans and garri approach has never failed me.

Oshimi Shuzo.

A mangaka who specializes in psychological thrillers/horror. However, the creep factor in his works usually doesn't come from the supernatural. In fact, some of his works have little to no supernatural elements at all. They don't rely on grotesque imagery (unlike Junji Ito), or blood and gore (although things can get quite brutal sometimes). So how does he achieve his scary/surprising/gross-out moments?

His use of pacing is one. He uses several panels with little to no dialogue to draw attention to minute details in characters' faces and create an atmosphere of unease. Since he makes use of a less stylized and cartoonish aesthetic than what most manga readers are familiar with, his characters express emotion in a manner that feels very real.

Speaking of real, another major source of the unease in his works is his ability to put characters in uncomfortable situations that seem real to us. He is able to take mundane themes like isolation, familial love, growing up and spin them into stories which can get so uncomfortable sometimes that they become difficult to read (in a good way).

This is because when things actually start to get messed up, he doesn't pull his punches—or he may in some cases—it's hard to predict what direction any given story would take.

A list of some of his works, starting with the ones I've completed or am still reading:

Waltz: A one shot story, it's a nice intro his works. Definitely not for everyone. It gets a little uncomfortable.

Happiness: Nothing happy about this one, a guy gets turned into a vampire and his life turns to sh!t. Then it gets worse, and somehow gets even worse than that. Had to pause it and read other stuff because it was too messed up.

Chi no Wadachi (A Trail of Blood): This is his most recent work and I think it's still ongoing. It follows a dude and his overprotective psycho mum. Also gets uncomfortable and really uses the atmospheric horror I was talking about. Had to pause this because I was going through the chapters waaay too quickly and the pacing and update rate are agonizingly slow.

Inside Mari: In my "currently reading" rotation. A loser, gamer, and college dropout (too real) gets body-swapped with a pretty highschool girl but this isn't looking anything like Your Name. Our creep of a protagonist is going to ruin her life the things seen to be going.

Aku no Hana (Flowers of Evil): This actually got animated. Haven't seen it yet, though.

Kaycee7:
No fvcking way. Whoooooaaaaaa!!

Not a common thing but it happens. Never seen a 16 year old built like Jonathan Joestar before, though.

Kaycee7:
So the creators of Uzaki-chan really going to acknowledge that they put working class b00bs on a junior high student?
Like, only the b00bs went through puberty.

When I was in JSS 2. There was a girl like that in my class.

True story.

Enjoy!

Paprika is not like Inception. Inception is like Paprika.

anonymouskay:
well I also still believe it's worth watching but if I were to recommend it I'd tell anyone to watch the part where everything gets explained first then start from the beginning...unless it's for the animation...

And also yeah the so called intellectual animes who all have this great/fantastic idea/premise (not necessarily original but simply interesting/thought provoking) but somehow execute it so poorly it's just unbelievable e.g concrete revolutio...an anime whose premise is showcasing just how truly subjective and biased the concept of 'Justice' is, it portrays racism terrorism security etc and makes you question the objectivity of such labels by showing how biased the process for attaching such labels is...but the problem with it is that it does this in most chaotic, confusing and by extension migraine inducing way possible...the timeline of episodes is like 3 days ago, yesterday, tomorrow, today, 7 years later, 30 years ago, 3 months ago, 2 weeks later, and then today (which today abeg)...I also finish this because 'SAKUGA!!!'...but I can never recommend this to anybody though...waste of time animes like concrete revolutio puts me in a 'i'm really fed up' mood and the worst part is I'll still eventually stumble upon stuff like it again...*sighs*

Very true. I remember watching Serial Experiments Lain and thinking "you could have conveyed the same message in like half the number of episodes". Even Angel's Egg, as short as it was still managed to waste several minutes on dead air and panning shots.

This isn't even limited to only anime. Blade Runner 2049, had this same problem. It had a great movie buried somewhere within its 2 hour 44 minute run time but still flopped. Why? Maybe because we don't need minute long panning sequences for establishing shots, maybe we don't need to spend 10 minutes watching a character go to a place and retrieve an object without incident.

At the end of the day, when these movies or anime fail to do well commercially, it's easy for elitists to blame audiences when the truth is that there are obvious filmmaking flaws in a lot of these "intellectual" projects.

IMAliyu:
All I can say is WATCH IT!

It's hella entertaining. Amazing animation, wacky characters, over the top racing.

Amazing animation is an understatement.
