      I've only seen one spoiler in regards to Arima and the person he fought at the end of the first run but honestly I found Kaneki to be too wishy-washy, it felt like he would develop but then go two steps back, develop again etc

      but this is one of those series people hold in the highest regard so the reaction isn't surprising, makes me excited to see what happens!

      I'm quite looking forward to RE because of how much was left unanswered at the end of Tokyo Ghoul but I couldn't resist having a quick scan and I was disappointed with how my boy Amon ended up

      You pretty much hit the nail on the head! I like to think he's a combination of the two but a lot of fans can't stand the idea that one of their favourite characters could be a pedo, IMO he's a really well written character and I can't help but feel he influenced a lot of other mangaka's, Tsukiyama from Tokyo Ghoul springs to mind.

      He's the most divisive character in the fandom, I see an argument about his 'desires' almost every other day

  6. My ipod touch, aged 10 months, just fell from a 2.5ft chair to the floor (inside a case) and has positively died of fright without a single scratch... Now, back to my 10 year old Nano-chromatic which looks like it's been through a garbage disposal and still works like new.

     

    Won't be wasting money like that again 😮

  8. No matter how hard I try, I can't get into Cardi B's music. I just get meangirl vibes from her music, and I'm sick of dealing with petty ass meangirls IRL, what makes you think I'm gonna handle a musician who makes it part of her music? lmao

      Isn't Cardi B the one who you used to sleep with guys and rob them afterwards, then her fans defended it because she was broke? 😂

  11. Can anyone recommend a good usb turntable? Gonna start buying some vinyls.

    1. Manabu

      Manabu

      I've been using the Ion profile lp, it's cheap but it does it's job pretty well and the software for putting vinyl on to a pc is quite easy to use

  12. Finished Diamond is Unbreakable and started Part 5. Some thoughts:

     

    Josuke almost gets first place with Joseph for favorite protagonist so far. Almost.

     

    Some amazing animation in part  4, but also painful fillers. 

     

    Kira vs Koichi  was a sick fight.

     

    No one can tell me Giorno is 15. Not even Araki himself. 

     

    Part 5 has the worst opening and ending. What's with that low-tier sex scene song with the gay posing for the ED? Skip skip skip.

     

    It's bizarre seeing Koichi again, the style difference is huge. I think Josuke would look great in this style.

    1. Manabu

      Manabu

      I'm pretty sure they used freakin you because one of the members of the group is called 'JoJo' but I agree, you compare the other ending themes and they've all been really good choices, freakin you not so much. As for the opening, I liked it but I think it got hyped up a lot because it was the same guy who did bloody stream.

       

      iirc part 5 is quite battle heavy with little filler, I'm quite interested to hear who your favourite character from part 5 will be!

      @Tokage Blaspheme! As much as I like steel ball run and despite the numerous issues Stone Ocean is my favourite of the series!

       

      Get reading the manga Alice, a team has coloured all of it and the art is fantastic, imo stone ocean has some of the most creative fights

      Yes! I take it you stuck through Stardust Crusaders? IMO diamond is unbreakable is when JoJo really comes in to it's own

  18. does anyone have any suggestions for easy songs to play with an acoustic guitar?

    i tried playing the intro to dir's vinushka but that was way too hard lol

    1. Manabu

      Manabu

      A few dir en grey songs
      The Final

      Jessica

      Clever Sleazoid

       

      A lot of antic cafe is fairly easy, kakusei heroism is fun

      LM.c Punky Heart and John are both fairly easy and fun

       

      They might sound a bit lacking on acoustic guitar but they're good starting points

      Unfortunately it's been a while since I've played guitar so I can't remember many

  19. Not amused by Stardust Crusaders so far 😬 

     

     

    (the characters look like ugly lego dolls 🥺 but Avdol is awesome)

      TBH this is when Araki was really finding his style (as were the studio producing it) and you can see he wanted to bring something new as well as keep some of the elements from Phantom Blood and Battle Tendency so it can be a bit hit or miss.

      The art style is quite divisive but once you hit season 4-5 it gets a lot more colourful and has a more fun feel to it.

  20. Just started my JoJourney and I think Joseph Joestar is my favorite so far (I know there's a long way to go). Is he popular on the Jojo scale? 

    1. Manabu

      Manabu

      Jolyne and Johnny are my favourites, I'd suggest reading the coloured versions of the manga as well.

      You could skip a few episodes in Stardust Crusaders because the story is quite simple, there's no filler but you'll miss out on some great fights and character moments.

  21. Thoughts on the FF7 remake so far?

    1. Manabu

      Manabu

      A lot of fun to play, combat is fluid and it looks beautiful, even characters like Biggs and Jessie are a bit more fleshed out. Characters have unique abilities, voice acting and the interactions are done really well and quite believable.

      My bad, should've been more specific, towards the end of the disc there is talk of alternative dimensions/realities

      Not a fan of releasing the game episodically, I know the original was spread over three discs but when you bought the game you got the whole thing.

       

      SPOILERS

       

       

      Not keen on the time travel aspect, the original story imo was pretty good and didn't need to be changed.

      Can't guarantee those are correct but the heresy and even though my throat will always hurt sound pretty spot on although towards the end I think he shouts "it burns burns burns my throat"

      Originally it was meant to be in the same universe as the Mummy remake, would've enjoyed seeing how they tied those together
