The General Anime Thread...

[Sephy]

Added to "Plan to Watch".

Good choice. 👍

Just found out Imageshack is going to delete all the images I have on my account except for the 500 most recent. Scrapping a ton of avatars for this. Will re-up in a different method.

That's pretty lame.

I don't really have Sephy's "if I started it I have to finish it" OCD, I'm cool with just dropping it

I suppose I'll give it another try one of these days though.

But it's short! And awesome!

Imageshack is changing almost all of their policies. First no anonymous uploads. Now you can't have more than 500 images unless you pay for a Premium membership. I spent about an hour getting mine down, and it is still in the 580 range (albeit from 1800).



I suggest Picasa.

 

[HACKr]

You've probably seen like 5 anime to think FLCL is that good.

Woo for taking the bait. However, FLCL still wins the spot as my favorite anime. I mean, besides some of the lesser known but well done stuff like what's on the Neo-Tokyo anthology, among other things. I might have favorite stuff but I don't really get into trying to pin "best" or "greatest" labels onto things. It's useless to try to judge when it's impossible to have every perspective.

I like it when people try to make something fresh and exciting, or perhaps deep in unexpected ways. So often I like short stories, rather than long ones. I don't really like the status quo, but, I'm not saying a lot of popular stuff in this thread is bad. I'm not exactly an anime fan, I guess. More of a fan of all types of animation. I just hang out here, because, well, anime is ****ing cool.

Why would they do that? Too many images?

It's a new rule. Free accounts are now limited to 500. I've collectively uploaded 4839 images since 2007.

I'm deleting all the old avatars, will re-up on different accounts in the future.

From now on (if you haven't started getting in the habit), if you like an avatar, please save it on your computer.

-> ...

Anyways, my brother has now started watching the Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya. I think it's solely because of this:

^ Whenever I see my lovable Mikuru and that feisty Haruhi together...

...nasty thoughts comes into my head.

-> I also forgot Death Note in my top 10 (between #3 and #4).

-> And yes, I'm not compatible with EVERYONE at MAL!! So there! I said it.

Why are they doing it?

Also no anonymous uploads will kill me. There are certain images I wouldn't risk putting on my Photobucket that could get my account banned.

Guess I better start saving em.

First no anonymous uploads.

Workaround to this: Stop the page from loading JUST before that splash screen appears via Esc key...

Also, what's with the f3f4f2 color tag?


Deleting everything earlier than 3.1. save em while you can.


edit: Annnnd they're gone!

Down to 354 images. 👍

Deleting all those figurine photo posts and the rest of the avatars I posted recently in a month's time.

I'll set up a different account for avatars.

 

[Tornado]

Why are they doing it?

I imagine it is because of increased competition from alternative photo upload services. I know that I would never have bothered using Imageshack if Picasa was around when I started my Imageshack account. I would have done my thumbnails by hand instead.


This is just another in a long line of stuff like that. A few years ago they disabled anonymous GIF uploads, and about a year after that they disabled them for non-Premium users too. After that, I basically stopped uploading stuff to them altogether, outside of the occasional image I wanted to upload from a link without download it.

Workaround to this: Stop the page from loading JUST before that splash screen appears via Esc key...

Really? That's... exceedingly bad design.

Also, what's with the f3f4f2 color tag?

So I always have it when I need it.

NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! I MISSED MY CHANCE!


Oh wait, that was before I came here. I'm good.


Edit: Lol Toronado C&P's his code.

This guy here knows what's up.

You all on the other side...

You've probably seen like 5 anime to think FLCL is that good.

There are so many anime better than FLCL.

Third... FLCL is dirt.

Should I try to finish it? I saw the first 2 episodes and gave up

...suck so much your smell reaches me all the way to Mexico. Lol-blade, you suck thrice now. The Corvette is simply a lost cause.

Learned it from GTPers with Wiki's SOPA period.

You can tell it's beautiful when someone is looking at it so contently.

Also no anonymous uploads will kill me.

Imgur allows anonymous uploads and works even better than imageshack if you ask me.

 

[Loliblade ver2]

Lol-blade, you suck thrice now.

Bebop and FLCL, what else?! Although I am going to resume Bebop, and enjoy it.

 

[Sly Guy]

No it doesn't, but thanks.

*Sigh*

Okay...

dissing FLCL counts x2

EDIT:

oooo I'm interested in this. Both.

You know that's bad!


More awesome figures! I am going to have to start blocking Andy.

PSSSSSHHHH, Bebop is better than FLCL.

Love the Saber and Vash!


The Miku is cool, but I don't like it when figures are just supported at one small area.

 

[Loliblade ver2]

Kay I'm done for the week. Promise.

Good, this post is raping my internet. ON A NEW PAGE, TOO. 🤬 why can't GTP have Zetaboard-esque spoiler tags?!

Oh, but that Kurisu and Ed are awesome 👍

Too easy to break, I'm thinking.

This.

Rinne no Lagrange 6

Spoiler

Things just more intense, and it seems we'll have some more backstory next episode. Also, I wonder what "The Rin-Ne has bloomed." means. Interested in seeing if this is a good or bad thing.

This is now my favorite show of the Winter season (Mouretsu Pirates originally held that title.), and is up to a 9/10, my first 9/10 I think since Birdy the Mighty: Decode 02 back in early January.

 

[CAMikaze]

Nice ones, Sephy.

EDIT: Real quick, Snow Miku:

Cool, pun intended(?)...

Rain looks awesome in this fan artwork.

^ Um, that Gundam reminds me of ES.W.A.T. Land Mate suit from the Appleseed movies:

-> Please don't hate me!!!

I'm wondeering if this is a fan-concept Gundam.

Prize Run Yoko by Sega

2011 Racing Miku by Good Smile Company

WAnt and want.

Update on that Miku Knight. Must say I'm liking that Teal/gold combo.

Me too.

I gather that's a soccer jersey she's sporting? It could be a baseball shirt instead...

 

[TheCorvette]

Agreed. I prefer tags you have to click open instead of stuff you have to highlight, or merely roll your mouse over to see the hidden text. Those tags allow image control.

PLEASE IF YOU'RE GOING TO QUOTE AN ASSLOAD OF IMAGES, MESS WITH THE IMAGE TAGS FIRST. It would make your post smaller AND would be less of a burden on people with crap internet. It's not hard!

More like the leaning thing. I'm sure they'll hold up just fine but I'm paranoid.

Rinne no Lagrange 6

This show is enjoyable, and I think it will get better, but Mouretsu Pirates is better IMO. Rinne no Lagrange is up there, but not close to best of the winter season I think.

Nice ones, Sephy.

👍

Cool, pun intended(?)...

Yeah, pretty sure it was done at the event.


EDIT: Essay is finished!

Wut?

That is all I have to say

Anyway, going to watch Welcome to the Velvet Room 15.

Is it me, or are we on the same page yet again?

Yeah, when quoting posts with images, especially a lot, mess with the tag. Makes scrolling less of a pain, and it's easier on people's internet, even those with fast connections.

Anyway, going to watch Welcome to the Velvet Room 15.

Episode 15 is all kinds of win.
