Chainsawman Part 2 Chapter 178

I want to do an effortpost about the show but I’m also lazy so

NOOOOO DENJI DON’T GIVE THE BOURGEOISIE WHAT THEY WANT!!!

DENJI! NOOOOOOOOO!!!

Honestly I prefer Hammond as a well meaning grandpa.

Hammond in the film is kinda a stand-in for Spielberg himself, the entire flea circus monologue is Spielberg lamenting about his role in the entertainment industry and whether he did more harm than good in it.

To me it just reinforces that the problems with Jurassic Park were systemic. It was doomed to fail no matter how well meaning the creator. The problem isn’t the individuals, it’s capitalism.

DreamWorks game studios so woke they somehow managed to make me, a cis male, experience gender dysphoria every time I looked down to check my health

Lmao

This panel goes so hard

Single show coming out this year that has me the most hyped, and we’ve already had a couple bangers in Dead Dead Demon’s DededeDestruction and Dungeon Meshi (and we’re also getting Uzumaki)

Noooo Lain bitcoin mining is a mistake!!!

WHERE IS THE INDIGENOUS POPULATION IN SETTLERS OF CATAAN?!?

Well…

Edit: Ah cool he covers it at the end of the video

Quinns is married to Leigh Alexander, the lady who wrote “Gamers are Over”. PMG also did this video on the Disco Elysium situation, which er… isn’t exactly their finest bit of reporting.

I’ve been a fan of Shut Up and Sit Down (their tabletop games focused channel) for a long time but I wouldn’t call them socialists.

There’s not enough text for it to be the former

I watched the first episode… honestly was kinda unimpressed. It all felt very boilerplate, the parts in the future all felt like the Christian Bale T4.

I dunno, doesn’t feel like Production I.G.'s best work, so the show doesn’t look that good either (by contrast, Heavenly Delusion and Kaiju No. 8 both at least looked neat). A lot of it feels like standard Netflix outsourced Korean studio work, but at least with Castlevania/Blood of Zeus there was more to work with.

Be the American the Japanese think you are

haven’t played the game (it was basically impossible to find translated versions until now) but from what I heard it has the same general plot but the details are different, and it had a darker tone than the show

Kyon-kun, Denwa!

The meta is so that the people pick up the light novel just because of clickbait title, and based on 1st volume sales alone one can get an anime adaptation, then make money off selling waifu merchs.

To add on a bit, the clickbaity titles are literal clickbait because what happens is that a lot of these stories start out by being published online for free on what are essentially fan-fiction boards in the hopes that publishers will pick up the most popular ones and they get book deals. That’s the reason for the overly long titles summarizing the plot, also why most of these aren’t well written (usually the first time an editor sees the script, it’ll be when the story is picked up for publishing and usually there are very few rewrites etc).

Damn that is a better name… or maybe Dungeons and Dishes
