You are right, but I think every member should have her own colour like some lazy power rangers.

four is too few for sentai but i can see where you're coming from; it'd let them sidestep the pink hair question too

but you'd make a terrible jew. they gotta be pink so it's both strong branding and something people might have in their wardrobe for the fanbase to initially cheap out on, but then you sell the 'official' ones with a little embroidered rape cuff somewhere at a healthy premium--but then it's an odd colour they probably don't have so (a) it's a purchasing choice in front of them and (b) as your popularity grows so does the shame of buying yours at target.
And you give that a hand by changing the design of the embroidery slightly after six months, then every year or two so there's the initial latent pressure of them becoming a commodity, then they actually do because Bocchi is a protagonist guitar hero (not that they know that, but remember the moral of that one TV show where Rimmer is a doctor now), and in any case you're helping point (b) along.
meanwhile it's just a fucking tracksuit so at a certain point you can just get containers from China for nothing and at bulk because they're all one colour

actually IRL rather than stitching a logo I'd ask the factory about getting somewhat oversized logo-embossed zippers because it's a teen girl band, but I wouldn't tell the band why. They're not going to think of that for themselves though, obviously
 
The new episode of Iruma-kun should have a trigger warning for adorableness. You will constantly pause to squee.

They didn't, it's just the subtitles. Yes, I'm sure you're shocked that an inaccurate translation was used for some stupid meme.

If so then it's one of the cases where the translation either purposely or not made the joke work better, especially as the show is a shitpost anyways so memes aren't that surprising.
 
Not sure if wise intuition or just wanting to witness what popular anime was being watched in 2007, but starting after Black Friday, I’m going to be watching Code Geass.

I’m not sure what I’m getting myself into, but this was the one anime I wanted to spare some time into finishing in its entirety. It was this and Gurren Lagann that were high on the “Most Popular Mid-2000’s Anime List” for me.

I remember watching it back in high school. It was one of the first anime series I saw that used the gaudy European-monarchy-mixed-with-futuretech aesthetic, which helped it stand out a bit in my mind.

It's a fun wild ride, keep yourself unspoiled for maximum effect. You'll miss the online meltdowns sadly which is a vital part of the enjoyment
 
I got Nichijou!

I also got the entire Haruhi Suzumiya series on sale. (The show, the movie, and the Yuki show)

Years ago I had only the first two dvds of the first season so I didn't get the whole experience. I liked Asakura even though she died early and I never got to see internet meme queen Tsuruya. Haruhi was very.....rapey to Mikuru.....it was confusing to me when Kyon sees Mikuru in the white blouse and she's apparently aged up in that scene (?)

I'm told that you gotta watch it in a certain order? Am nervous about Endless Eight. I would have enjoyed seeing Nagato and Asakura interact more. I assume that's in the spin off.

Regarding Mikuru, remember what kinds of people Haruhi wants to meet.

You want to watch the original broadcast order, not the chronological order.

I know lol she's the time traveler.

Why the broadcast order over the chronological one?

The anime is an adaptation of multiple LN volumes, some of which are collections of shorts. The biggest climax of the series occurs six episodes into the chronological order, then the rest will bounce all over the place and end on a very low-key note. The broadcast is better at feeling like rising action.

Adults fucking teenagers has always been a weird thing. Like, it was normal for most of human history and has only recently become a legal issue because back then a teenager was already an adult. This was one of those tribe/village things where it really depended. I'm pretty sure most people don't care much about young men scoring with a woman older than him because that drive is just a male thing. When it's a girl with an older man, it's the issue of the day because we naturally want to protect women, even if we say they're responsible for their own choices.

Denji is a young man who grew up in poverty and literally sold his organs for cash. Shinji is an emotionally vulnerable teenager on the verge of a mental breakdown most of the time. This kind of context is also important. If the former scores with a grown woman (not elderly or especially unnatractive), I'm absolutely certain almost all of us would feel happy for him. If the latter does, I'm sure we'd all be concerned because he probably cried during it.

But enough of my autistic thoughts about this subject brought about by a relatively low-effort meme
my boy denji needs some fucking love, man
enough with the abusive bitches, please
