i'm assuming that, despite being 2 cours, there's no delay in the release schedule. the 1st episode of the 2nd cour was released exactly a week after the 1st cour's final episode, so it may be easier to just consider them as part of the same release.

the death note anime and the death note manga are two different experiences. both are amazing, so choose whichever medium you prefer!

they do have almost entirely the same story, but the way some scenes and characters are portrayed varies a little bit. so if you like one, check out the other to see the differences!

Mmmm... Those sexy, golden arches...

@xloic13

is it platypuses, platypi or platypodes?

lain has a ton of deep meaning and warnings, but as a show rather than a general message? not great imo

because i'm a massive fan of the original manga and light novels :") i couldn't take the second season of :re anymore halfway through lol

LittleBigPlanet was one of my favourite games as a kid! I loved it so much and I remember spending ages building worlds on my PlayStation 2.

Zodiac II: Western Zodiac Challenge

and just to add on to my comment about same-sex attraction being shown in case it's misunderstood by anyone:

even as a gay woman i struggle to know when a woman is gay or just overly friendly in media. a woman can be making non-stop sexual comments, kissing other women, and being the gayest being possible... yet somehow the creators make them inexplicably straight. it's gotten to the point i see a gay-acting woman and just assume they're straight now.

and even when they are actually gay, creators often make it more subtle since they don't want to boast stereotypes and create unrealistic scenarios, meaning that unless the couple ends up together many people just don't understand what's going on. i've watched lots of shows and movies with two characters who are (to me) very obviously gay, yet because they never officially date my straight friends just don't see any attraction between them at all.

this single scene clears up both of those instantly. could there be better ways of doing it? maybe, i don't know. i've never written a script or directed anything. but i think it does just get the point across well.

it's a weird scene, but also a really good way of getting the creator's intentions across.

nina doesn't just have admiration for euphie or a girlcrush on her, but instead a deeper infatuation. i assume you haven't seen much past episode 12, but it makes her actions surrounding euphemia later on a lot more understandable with this context.

the creator could have done something else, but given that they're both women it can be a LOT harder to get the general audience to understand that there's an element of sexual attraction rather than just strong admiration. this scene, even if unexpected and kinda gross, does get the point across that she has that deeper obsession very well.

this is a very unfair accusation to make. i've been on the site for years and i've seen problems like this before multiple times even when josh is in charge. they're doing their best.

Dungeon Challenge: 1st Wave

no, you can't watch heaven's feel directly? it skips like 90% of its own story since it assumes you've seen either fate/stay night or unlimited blade works?

many many many parts of the franchise you can randomly jump to since they're all alternate universes and stuff, but the fate/stay night universe does have a set order.

oh, i agree. and that's why a lot of people argue to watch fate/zero before fate/stay night even though it was released after.

the thing that just really confused was you recommending they watch fate/stay night after unlimited blade works. in the fate/stay night visual novel there are 3 routes, fate, unlimited blade works then heaven's feel. fate/stay night adapts the fate route. watching them route #2, route #1, route #3 is just strange.

the only reason i say that is because in terms of original release order it's:

1. fate/stay night
2. fate/stay night: unlimited blade works
3. fate/stay night [heaven's feel]
4. fate/zero

it's fine to watch it how you want, but recommending your order is a little... strange when you compare it to the above order lol

this is a whack order lmao

ufotable did want to adapt fate/stay night first, but the idea was unanimously scrapped as people thought that studio deen's fate/stay night was already a good enough introduction to fate. so they animated fate/zero instead with the expectation people had already seen or played fate/stay night.

yeah, that'll be why ^^ and some people do still understand fate/zero without having seen another fate entry. but lots of people don't so recommending zero first is a really bad idea imo since it turns people off the franchise as a whole
