Q: Explanation of ending of Guilty Crown

marialenaCan someone explain to me the ending of Guilty Crown? I read some threads related to Shu case, for example that he took all the voids and illness of each people to save them but then Inori in some way she took them and die instead of Shu. And after that Shu becomes blind because Inori was like ...

Q: How did Hashiba conclude that the teacher-killer was in their class?

senshinIn episode 2, Hashiba plants a phone in the classroom under instruction from Kobayashi, and then has Ms. Hanabishi show it to the class, asking who it belongs to. Hashiba replies that it belonged to their murdered teacher. Somehow, from this sequence of events, Hashiba is able to deduce that th...

Q: What is the difference between Dragonball Z and Dragonball Z Kai?

Memor-XWhen I first heard about Kai thought it was a Remake similar to the recent Sailor Moon Remake (not Crystal the original series where Haruka and Michiru were made to be cousins to censor their relationship). however i have seen posts that seem to indicate that the first few Sagas have been covered...

 
 
@Eric anything wrong with that number?

;P why so serious?
 
@Hakase Can you make it post to the channel it's tagged in, instead of always to this channel?
 
@JetStream no don't do that , if you like , then you can post your own images as much as you like
 
What do you mean?
 
5:40 AM
i mean posting those limited image rapidly is not good
 
Indeed.
 
Yeah sorry, but I don't have so much wallpapers ^^ and so I'm searching for new ones :P

Q: What is Aldnoah from "Aldnoah.Zero"?

JetStreamI recently watched "Aldnoah.Zero" and started with "Aldnoah.Zero (2015)" and I was wondering about one of the main elements in this anime. What is Aldnoah really? Is it some sort of stone, or some sort of energy? If it would just be energy they wouldn't have so advanced weapon systems, or not?

Yellow2413 I think the girl is named Mashiro, but I'm not sure. Thanks in advance :)

 
@Sakamoto i saw someone using @Taisho to id that same image today
 
lol
 
@Sakamoto It was from an deleted question, by the same user anime.stackexchange.com/questions/23403/…
 
@nhahtdh so an attempt to get around the deletion?
 
They don't know how the site works, so I guess they just repost the question until it sticks
 
6:55 AM

(removed)
 
@ToshinouKyouko need to change the font color
 
@nhahtdh But I want to be polite so why don't you just leave my salutation? It doesn't add something to the question but is not wrong in any way because it bothers no one besides you :P
 
@OshinoShinobu same with you

Q: Should 'Hi', 'thanks,' taglines, and salutations be removed from posts?

GEOCHETI edit a lot of posts every day. I often run across posts with 'Hi' and 'Thanks' on the top and the bottom of the post respectively. I also run across things like: --User Should these items be removed during the editing of the post by an editor?

 
@Uni could you pass this to Sam?

hey jet, don't believe we've met before? how do you do
hows it going @Memor-X? still having trouble on the job hunt? also was thinking about picking up some nep nep.. have you played the series, I know quite a few on here have just can't remember who all it was.
 
@shaggy No we haven't, I'm not that long on anime/manga stackexchange :D
 
@shaggy in the order asked. good all things considering. yeh still having trouble and yes i've played it
@SeptianPrimadewa NSFW
 
@SeptianPrimadewa wtf man hide that stuff
@Uni ahem
@Uni do people even get pings from
multiline messages?
 
7:25 AM
@Hakase i dont know
did you get the ping from this?
 
in case they don't, I asked you earlier to contact Sam about the exception while joining the room
 
@SeptianPrimadewa Please don't post NSFW images in the open
 
@Matt yeah man, it's been awhile, sorry we haven't gotten to chat for awhile. How goes everything? Still playing Wiess? one of these days well have to catch up, my schedule is just all messed up right now, due to medication and complicated things related to that. well hope alls well man. take care. have a pint for me :D
 
@Memor-X oh it works
 
7:27 AM
@Memor-X not the biggest fan? in relation to HDNB1.. I'm pretty sure either way im going to pick up the PC port, just always curious to hear others opinions.
@JetStream lol what is that from, oh and welcome. i've been around since the beginning of this year, but recently have taken a lapse in visiting, due to medical stuff going on. hope you enjoy your stay here. it's a pretty cool little community... most of the time lol
 
@shaggy i don't say i'm the biggest because then would imply i'm on top but i am a huge fan. i played the originals on the PS3 and have been getting the PS Vita ones but i havn't started playing Re;Birth yet. @Frosteeze has played Re;Birth 1 and 2 and is waiting for Re;Birth 3 to come out on steam
thinking on the subject. @Frosteeze if you was to serve one Goddess till the end of time who would you choose?
mind you Goddess Selection is independent from console preference (ie. you can choose Noire even if you hate Playstation)
 
@shaggy Thank you very much and I'm missing the name of this anime right now ^^ when it comes to my mind I'll tell you :D
 
@shaggy hey! you were warned that during happy hour sanity is thrown out the window
@Hakase how to you re-enable @Taisho?
 
indeed, no idea
 
xD
 
7:34 AM
also back at memor- I hope ya the best man, is the job market just that rough out there in oz right now? hmm either way something will come through soon im sure of it. and yea, As i understand it Re;Birth1 is its own separate story and then RB2/3 are paired together. Im really new to the whole steam client thing, which is amazing. but unless im missing something seems to be pretty limited on the whole VN/ Jrpg front. I suppose theres just not the biggest market for such things?
 
really? @Hakase
 
exception is in chat api
idk shit about that, so I'm stuck
 
also i was really taken aback when i realized that the different goddesses were based off of all the different consoles? IE, the wii, xb360, ps3.. I just saw that on a review. and had no idea.. is this correct?
sidenote_ right now im watching shigofumi. it's kinda interesting, just got through the first arc so far.
 
so Taisho is dead now?
 
hell be back
 
7:37 AM
I know hell, he won't back
 
lol
i don't know if that was a joke on my lack of apostrophe's or not.
speak of the devil
#eggplant
 
ok I fixed it :p
 
@shaggy Visual Novels/JRPGs are limited but there's a steady increase in popularity. based off the ideal that Re;Birth follows the same story Re;Birth 1 is in a separate world from Re;Birth 2 (because of how Arfoire is portrayed). Re;Birth 3 is set in a parallel world to Re;Birth 2 as the CPU Candidates (the Sisters) make an appearance but the story is mainly set in this alternate reality. not sure where Product Perfection, Action Unleashed and Hyperdivotion Noire is set
 
heck you did :D
#donut
 
7:39 AM
 
good, good
 
#donut?! xD
 
@JetStream I don't understand what you mean by that.
 
@Uni not exactly false alarm, but versions beyond 2.7.3 are not working for me for some reason
 
Sorry @Taisho
#alias add #post #bacon
 
7:40 AM
@JetStream Command #post was aliased to #bacon
 
@shaggy yep, the main CPUs are based off one of the main consoles. Noire = PS3, Blanc = Wii, Vert = 360, Neptune = Unreleased Sega Console
 
#bacon
 
@JetStream I don't know that command.
 
:O Screw you for not knowing #bacon @Taisho!! :D

Q: Name of anime? Please help

user5137620So there was this anime I watched but never finished and I forgot the name of it. The anime genre was harem and the story was about humanoids fighting each other until only 1 survived. All the humanoids were girls and had the power to become stronger if they kissed a person. A few things I rememb...

 
7:41 AM
the sisters are based off the Handhelds so Uni = PSP, Ram and Rom = NDS, Nepgear = Unreleased Sega Handheld
and ofcause each of the nations is one of the companies. Lastation = Sony, Lowee = Nintendo, Leanbox = Microsoft and Planetune = Sega
 
that's pretty neat
umm oh before i take off.
@Memor-X what's the ps3 title, its a music based jrpg, and there's a music bar playing in the bottom right hand corner the whole time, while in fights in what not.
i tried looking it up and its not ar tonelico. i can't remember it. but you deff were playing it a few months back if im not mistakened
i know the discription is quite vague
could be ps2
i just remember the music player in the corner
either way, I got to go grab a small bite of food, watch my concluding episode for tonight, and try to get some rest and hopefully feel better in the morning.
everybody take care. and it was nice meeting you @JetStream later memor
 
@shaggy where do you come from? :D
 
@shaggy i've no idea. there's Ar Tonolico: Melody of Elemia on PS2 that's got a music theme to it but no Music Bar in the corner. the other games i've played before that is Resonance of Fate on PS3, Atelier Iris on PS2 and Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII if we limit it to a few months back and being JRPGs

@shaggy No worries, it's just how time differences are :/ I'm good, and yeah, I've played a bit, still not very good though :L mm, we will, but make sure you're alright first, your health is more important, after all! haha, shall do - you take care as well ^_^

Can someone explain why this question was reopened? anime.stackexchange.com/questions/23422/…
I'm pretty sure I closed this being a bad id-req
 
@ʞɹɐzǝɹ Dunno :D Ask Yellow2413 ^^
 
@JetStream nm I see why now
 
@ʞɹɐzǝɹ two of them
 
yes
 
@ʞɹɐzǝɹ And why? :D
 
8:51 AM
45 secs ago, by Oshino Shinobu
@ʞɹɐzǝɹ two of them
Please flag post like that if you can, when you see them.
 
what kind of flag? mod attention?
or did close as dupe work for closed question?
wait, it's already deleted
 
9:09 AM
mod flag if it's a resubmit
 
@ʞɹɐzǝɹ I feel like I don't understand why this fails the criteria. Or maybe I just don't understand the criteria, but by my count it seems to pass.
From the one image, you can immediately tell that it's a manga, that the genre is shoujo, and you can identify the drawing style and physical features of the characters. We also have 2 of their names. That would seem to be 5 of the criteria listed, and since it has an image only 2 ought to be required.

Q: What is the title to this song on Fairy Tail?

user3521680What is the song that starts at 21:05 of fairy tail episode 124? Link -- https://goo.gl/7uOuhT

 
I do think some work ought to go into writing a more complete body and title, but that isn't a reason to close a question so much as to improve it.
 
I think it sets a bad precedent by showing oh just post a image, and throw a name. I don't see a better way to compel people to go a bit further to add a tad bit of extra info to their question
 
I see no reason to compel people beyond downvoting and declining to answer their questions
 
9:23 AM
As harsh as it may seem, I feel that force closing them seems to send a clearer message than downvoting and being apathetic about them. What I really want them to do is spend just a tad bit more effort on writing these questions
 
Given that SE doesn't even inform you when your questions are closed, and the close banner looks like an advertisement to users not familiar with SE, I don't think it helps much. Most of these users are probably just using the feature which sends you an email when you get an answer and not returning to the site.
More to the point though, if you're going to unilaterally enforce such rules, they should be clearly written down somewhere. Right now, by our current rules (which you wrote yourself, by the way), I see little reason not to vote to reopen.
 
hmm... that's a good point. I do need to clarify a bunch of things
 
Ultimately, when we close a question like this which is quite answerable, I feel like it hurts regular users here who want to improve it and answer it more than it hurts the OP, who wouldn't get an answer either way unless we help them out.
 
I'll rethink my approach on these questions as well
It's tough to get people to improve these low effort questions
 
@Jet that confuses people very much and it wasn't intended to work like that in the first place, so yeah, "improvements" :p
 
9:31 AM
but ignoring them tends to cause them pile up
more rules will only complicate things more
 
what I think should be done is deleting those id requests after a month if they have not been answered
coz ain't nobody's gon look at month old id requests without answers
 
well, some get answered after a couple of months
 
not good enough
 
who remember that old id question anyway
 
but as time progresses it indeed is less likely
 
9:32 AM
if OP still wants them to be answered, they may undelete them or repost
 
there's already a script for cleaning questions with <0 votes after a few months
 
few months is a lot for regular questions and with negative votes, but it's not enough to keep the site clean from zombie id reqs
 
something else, what should we do with this anime.stackexchange.com/questions/23427/… the author provided a link to the full episode. I doubt this is legal.
 
Not legal. Remove the link but keep the timestamp.
 
@Alagaros cut the link, say "das illegal" in edit comments
 
9:34 AM
okiez
 
People here can find ways to access the episodes on their own anyway, at least for series that they care enough about to answer questions for.
 
@ʞɹɐzǝɹ should I post a meta discussion about this?
 
@Hakase But still improvements :P Works better now ^^
 
@Hakase lets talk about it before we post
 
yo J!
 
9:38 AM
give it a bit more substance
i mean here is the state of our tags now:
 
the main reason why I want to decrease this "grace period" is because it's not very likely that a user will still be around after a month, because a lot of them are hit and run
 
Why does it matter if it sticks around for a month?
 
they dilute the site's stats?
 
seems a bit too much effort for 1 tag
 
stats are way less important than questions
 
9:40 AM
do we really want a bunch of old trash questions around?
 
1 month isn't old
 
for a regular question maybe
but for an id request, hmm?
 
If it took 2 years, I might be inclined to agree, but for 1 month we're only talking about a few dozen questions out of about 6000 right now.
Not to mention they've typically got generic titles that make them rather hidden anyway
 
I don't think singling out id-reqs is a good way of going about this
 
Mornin'
 
9:43 AM
I agree the titles are horrendously generic
 
I'm not proposing a solution to bad initial IDs, just about deleting the old ones which nobody knows how to answer
 
@JNat hi
 
@JNat Hello! :D
 
ok then, why not make a default template for ID requests like those community ad answers have?
 
That's exactly what the roomba is already there to do.
 
9:44 AM
ok, I'm changing the subject now to ID req templates
 
I hate the idea
 
why
 
because templates are the best way to write bad questions
 
@Hakase culling them earlier won't help the bottom lying issue imo
 
@ʞɹɐzǝɹ which is?
 
9:44 AM
If you want to get people to write bad ID requests, by all means make a template
 
@Hakase ppl post lazy bad id-reqs
 
right now, the people who can write good ones tend to, and the people who can't tend not to. Which is exactly how it should be.
 
I'm just throwing around ideas that have been recently discussed but I haven't seen a lot of arguments against them
 
@Hakase feel free to do a feature request in meta if you like
 
no, I don't like :p
 
9:47 AM
At the end of the day though, some people just don't want to be helped, and there's nothing we can do about that.
 
welcome back @Matt :D
 
@LoganM I think Logan has the right idea with this
@JetStream Thank you, thank you
 
I just want to help a bit, but idk what is the best way to make ID requesters post better reqs
 
@Matt it's more as if they want help but don't bother learning the rulesimo
 
the best thing I know is ask questions in comments
 
9:49 AM
The status quo is pretty good imo. The good ID requests often get answered, which is good. The bad ones do sometimes, which doesn't hurt anyone, and usually end up getting deleted eventually, so we should just forget about them. The only thing we aren't doing well enough is editing the bad but improvable ones into good one.
 
@ʞɹɐzǝɹ so what, tell them "read the rules and improve or it gets deleted?" every time? it's already being done by closing
so we got it as good as it can be then?
 
"Read the rules, see that your question actually passes the rules, and not know how to improve it before it gets deleted" more like
 
improve the close reason explanation and linked rules?
 
perhaps send notifications on close?
 
The explanation would be fine if voters here followed the rules. But even the mods don't bother following them, which makes me wonder why we have rules at all.
 
9:52 AM
@ʞɹɐzǝɹ what? are they not being sent??
 
Thats a good point @LoganM
 
the rules are unclear. I'm probably at fault for this
 
how are they unclear?
 
They aren't unclear. People just don't follow the clearly written rules.
 
Why don't just put something lik "How to Ask" up but for ID Requests and tell the users what information could be helpful to id the manga/anime but this could lead the users in a template style even if it's not meant to be ^^
 
9:54 AM
@Hakase SE never sends you notifications of anything negative themselves. You don't get any notification of downvotes, when your questions are closed, when your posts are deleted, etc. I believe this is intentional and supposed to prevent "whining" but it also prevents many people from improving their posts.
 
I think if we got pretty high standards for questions, including ID requests, then it should be expected that a pretty high % of posted requests get closed as too bad for the site
 
hmm? why it's closed as contains too little detail to be answered ?
 
I think they're not interpreting them clearly as one would imagine
 
oh nvm i just read it must contain 2 detail
 
@ʞɹɐzǝɹ would writing an "easy to understand" meta post that explains how to ask for ID help? We could compare different versions

A: What kind of policy should we adopt for current and future "identification-request" questions with no audiovisual artefacts?

Logan MMy viewpoint is that many of the identification-request questions coming in are bad questions, but few of them need to be closed. This is, in my opinion, the same viewpoint that JNat suggested in his answer here. Hence, IMO the first course of business should be to create an FAQ on meta regardin...

 
I've found that you guys are pro at writing comprehensive meta explanations about things, but also that they're lengthy and not very appealing to a lazy user
perhaps I could try my hand at writing a simple one
 
@Hakase most new users won't bother reading that
 
well, most new users will get their IDs closed then :p
 
@ʞɹɐzǝɹ I think they do...
 
with a custom close reason linking to the explanation
 
9:58 AM
maybe if we did a how to write id req comic?
3
 
This is way too much
 
oh lol
idk man, but that could actually work
 
That would be nice xD
It attracts more attention then a plain text
 
a comic instead of a wall of text
 
Our 4koma's can now have a higher purpose!
 
9:59 AM
uh-huh
 
:D
 
Would you guys be interested in getting some numbers regarding people whose first question is an id-req? Like, did they come back, did they contribute further to the site by asking/answering... I can run some queries
