Re: Berserk
^ After all the IRL years it took them to get off the damn boat, 2 chapters to climb a mountain was pretty merciful. And they're now at the peak of the mountain, much higher than they were before- they're now at the foot of the thorn-covered peak (the translation seems to be a bit jumble...

Re: Everything is Rockin'! [RML Thread 4]
Finished my first mini-pupillage work experience placement. I will admit that when I first went in I was very unsure about whether I actually wanted to become a barrister, but seeing the profession behind the curtain has really re-invigorated my interest in the legal profession beyond 'I will do thi...

Re: What are you watching right now? (tv series + see OP!)
I will say that I don't find American Gods as much of a mind-fuck if only because it does borrow a bit from recognised mythology whereas Twin Peaks's otherworld doesn't correspond to any known myths or legends.

Re: Berserk
I will say the last 2 episodes are probably the strongest the 2017 anime has had since it started. Still doesn't really compare to the older anime of the manga that well, though.

Did they have the scene where BastSPOILER: Showswallows someone whole with her privates?
It wasn't Bast, it was Bilquis, the Queen of Sheba. Completely different deity.

Re: [Film] Prometheus + Sequels
I'll probably watch it just because I want to see where the plot goes and to form my own opinion on it, but it doesn't seem like it's going to be anything special from what viewers and reviewers have said. It doesn't seem to be as terrifying as the first film and it doesn't seem to do much to flesh ...

Re: Currently playing 4: Guns of the Patriots
^ The ending is basically meant to mean that everyone has gone insane (including the playable character) from Murkoff radio towers in the area. It doesn't really say anything conclusive because the protagonist's grasp on reality is basically non-existent by that point. Also, it's...

Re: What are you watching right now? (tv series + see OP!)
Samurai Jack last night earned it's place on Adult Swim. She wasn't wearing a leotard, Ashi was naked the whole time. And a certain bad guy used the word "Penis' to describe somebody. I knew this was Adult Swim and I shouldn't have been shocked, but it really caught me off guard to...

I'm a bit confused with something with this latest chapter why would Casca see Guts as a protector and someone burdened with her if she's generally scared of him? Guts's appearance in the inner world is a pretty fearsome-looking dog, which indicates that Casca is aware of the beast lurking ...

The LWA TV series is trying its best, although time will tell if it will actually succeed when all the episodes are out.

Re: What anime are you watching right now? Summer 2016 to now
Berserk has started up again, and I 'm cautiously optimistic. The first 2 new episodes weren't bad- I quite liked them, to be honest. I feel like they're trying to bite off more than they can chew by trying to replicate the manga with the rather controversial 3D style, but we'll see how it goes.

Re: Hollywood's "Ghost in the Shell"
I agree with that they don't touch on the fact that the cyborg being so strong means the Mayor can break things by mistake which is a constant problem which might take her a long time to sort out as in the 2nd GIG as a girl she broke one of her dolls by mistake. Was this ever actually an overarchin...

Re: What anime are you watching right now? Summer 2016 to now
Little Witch Academia is starting to heat up and grow an overarching plot within the last few episodes. It's probably going to be my favourite weekly show now that Konosuba's wrapped up again.

SPOILER: Show
I hope so, especially after she's spent years both in-universe and IRL as a madwoman. I was actually expecting Miura to try dragging out her suffering even longer.

Re: FML general thread [8]
While reading a daily comic on Danbooru I noticed the "amputee" tag (and its multi-thousands occurrence). I guess I should've known better than clicking on that tag on a site that also hosts rather risque (and more) drawings... :facepalm: Gorn is pretty horrifying. Even knowing it exists ...

Re: Star Wars
Anyone else catch the reference to TPM and Qui Gon Jinn's fighting style? Overall the confrontation was a nice samurai movie homage, but when Kenobi changed his fighting stance to bait Maul I got the shivers. Even more so with their parting words. What a beautiful fight. Yeah, I've seen loads writt...

Re: Star Wars
It felt like Ezra just ended up being baggage in this episode while Maul and Kenobi were the main focus. Things probably wouldn't have turned out differently if Ezra hadn't shown up, but they probably felt like he had to be there as the main character.

Re: Currently playing 4: Guns of the Patriots
As I understand it the Nier plotline is actually a really, really long saga leading all the way back to Drakengard's Ending E (although in a Dark Souls-esque fashion this is only communicated through some small tidbits since most of the original backstory that was communicated to you in the first Ni...
