A: Why do many characters tend to have crazy hair colors and styles?

The most obvious reasons are: It's way cooler than common haircuts you see on real people; Character will definitely stand out in a crowd; The less obvious reasons are: It's easier to remember characters of a show with lots of them by their hair style and color. Especially useful for shows ...

does anyone know if Space Brothers anime ended at 99 episodes or if there will be more in the future?

I wanna know what happens with that UFO thing they saw in the beginning

Logan M

Nothing is announced yet, but the manga is still going, so it's possible there will be more in the future.

There's also a movie that will air in August.

Q: How did Sanji get his ability Diable Jambe?

I was reading through the CP9/Enies Lobby arc, Sanji reveals that he has the ability to heat up his legs to the point that anything he touches with the spontaneously combusts. How is it that he got this ability?

can any of you guys cook something good?

Shinobu Oshino

@user1306322 I cook noodle sometimes

and its good

user1306322

do you buy thèm or do you make them from scrap?

and what kind of noodles

Shinobu Oshino

@user1306322 that one

and cheap

cuz its easy

and taste good

user1306322

oh, I thought you were talking about fancier noodles

in that case I can make these pretty well too

with cheese they're great

Shinobu Oshino

LOL, no, I can't even cook rice

user1306322

12:54 AM

rice is easily cooked in a rice cooker

or just a steam cooker

basically the same thing, but you can also stick some meat and veggies in it

a few weeks ago I tried making some udon from flour and water, but ended up with overcooked dough and several days of food poisoning

so I'm sticking with steam cooker for now

Q: What is this tea stalk that almost every cup of tea in anime has?

Here are two photos of tea stalks in their natural habitat: I've never seen those myself when I made tea, and I've been making at least two cups of tea every day for the past six years. Is it a Japanese tea thing? Is it sorted out from the leaves in other regions? I've been buying some expor...

tea

Shinobu Oshino

I do have rice cooker, but hell I can't tell how much water I should put it in

sometimes it work

user1306322

I always fill my steam cooker to the max and there just isn't any extra water in the rice by the time it's done

I guess there should be that kind of rice cookers too

but I don't know much about rice, I'm more of a tea specialist

Shinobu Oshino

would it be a porridge if you put too much water?

user1306322

and still I don't know much as you can see^

it would, if the water is in the same container as the rice, but if it's below and only carried by steam, the rice won't absorb more water than it can handle

Shinobu Oshino

the only tea I can make is with teabag

user1306322

1:01 AM

that is the worst kind

you should pay a visit to your local tea shops and get some samples

with the same general approach it'll be much better than teabags

Shinobu Oshino

@user1306322 well, that's what I got everywhere, unless I go to some kind of 4 star restaurant, where do you think I live?

not a big city really

we don't have anything like that

user1306322

based on the brand of noodles, Indonesia?

I'm not talking about Grand Commerce Centers for Tea Parties and Accessories™, but about really small shops

I'm sure you can find at least one in your vicinity

Shinobu Oshino

@user1306322 I'm pretty surprise that you know my noodle

that's kind of tea I got if it's not a teabag

user1306322

no, I just reverse-googled your image and it showed the brand

even the loose tea sold in stores can't compare to loose tea from tea shops

okay then, what good chocolate do you have available?

and what would you recommend

Shinobu Oshino

1:23 AM

@user1306322 what kind of chocolate you talking about?

user1306322

I wonder what people find in super long anime series like one piece, naruto and such

oh right, there are kinds, let's see

Shinobu Oshino

@user1306322 for me it's because childhood

user1306322

the normal kind I guess?

like this chocolatfrey.com/products/chocolate-tablets

in form of chocolate tablets

first time I see or hear "chocolate tablet"

"chocolate bar" is more common

Shinobu Oshino

@user1306322 that's a fancy chocolate you have

@user1306322 you never watch long run anime?

user1306322

these are also nice, especially the creamy one, the smoothest chocolate I know

lindt.com/swf/eng/products/excellence

I prefer not to, but not because it's long, usually it's plain boring or not my genre

battle stuff is not my thing at all

I get Kill la Kill kinds of battle, but not the Dragon Ball kind

I just watched 99 episodes of Space Brothers in hope of seeing what happens to that UFO thing, but it ended suddenly long before that might happen

but it was fun in many ways

Krazer

1:34 AM

@user1306322 this i the last epi of the season, as for another season... they haven't announced anything

user1306322

next in my list of seen anime come Fullmetal Alchemist (classic and Brotherhood), then goes Soul Eater and Nana, so no 3-digit episode series

@Krazer I sure hope there will be at least some development of Mutta × Serika relationship

maybe she'll finally notice his attention

@ShinobuOshino we also have much cheaper and less tasty kinds, but they're not worth it

Shinobu Oshino

@user1306322 I don't really like long series either, but I watch it since I was a kid so I guess I will follow it till the end

user1306322

all people I know devour a chocolate tablet whole in a matter of minutes, but I prefer to enjoy every little bit of it, and it lasts about a week or two, so it's much more efficient in terms of money and tastiness

I tried to start watching Gintama, and while I appreciate the level of humor, it's just plain not entertaining enough for me to keep watching

I'd rather go for some other stuff

Shinobu Oshino

@user1306322 FMA is good, how bout code geass, attack on titan. both are great, and less than 100 eps

user1306322

on a totally unrelated note, are Madoka movies recaps of the series or something else?

I couldn't watch Code Geass because of bs war setting

AoT was okay, but it lacked character depth

Shinobu Oshino

1:44 AM

@user1306322 first and second one is same with series I think, I have it and skip it most of time because of that

user1306322

good action though

Shinobu Oshino

For code geass I usually never watch mecha but it's really good, kinda like death note

I watch it because C.C :3

love her

user1306322

I think you may have not seen Inari, Konkon, Koi Iroha yet

Shinobu Oshino

It's on my list but I haven't watch it

user1306322

legend has it, Crayon Shin-chan is a must see, but 800+ episodes sure is scary

I recommend Natsume Yuujonchou and Mushishi

Shinobu Oshino

1:58 AM

so you like supernatural thing I guess. All of that is on mylist but I haven't watch it for now

user1306322

and sci-fi

Shinobu Oshino

I have tons of anime in my waiting list

I remember one supernatural anime I want to watch but I can't remember the name

user1306322

what kind of supernatural?

adventure, horror, demon/vampire, school, romance?

Shinobu Oshino

horor I guess? kinda new anime, 2010 or something

user1306322

is it Another?

Shinobu Oshino

2:03 AM

no, first episode has a girl with somekind supernatural power and she's in school

like that

user1306322

no ideas then

Shinobu Oshino

nvm, I found it. Shin Sekai Yori

user1306322

oh, that

Shinobu Oshino

I saw first ep and it seems interesting

user1306322

that's no school, that's a whole… New World!

I'd say it's rather controversial and you might not like it

Shinobu Oshino

2:10 AM

Well, I only watch first eps, so I don't know

what's controversial about it

user1306322

things get real with every episode: topics change, plot twists, questions arise with no answers in vicinity

it's very spoilable, so I can't say anything specific, but I have a feeling you might not like this series

I myself prefer more straightforward stuff

I mean when there is a well-explained reason for things, the plot keeps making sense, but when a change is questionable, I dunno, looks more like poor storytelling

have you seen Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei?

Shinobu Oshino

@user1306322 just finished first season

I love shaft

user1306322

me too

the art style in Madoka was unmistakably theirs

Shinobu Oshino

their art is....different, I like it

bakemono, madoka

those are my fav

user1306322

I gotta check out Nisekoi from them

Shinobu Oshino

2:20 AM

@user1306322 it's good, kinda surprise shaft made it. It's different from what I imagine in manga

how can they make typical romcom become like that?

shaft style

user1306322

Katte ni Kaizou

Shinobu Oshino

it looks like Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei, same author?

user1306322

yup

lemme ask you about these several anime titles: Great Teacher Onizuka, Hellsing, Cowboy Bebop, Kimi ni Todoke, Youjouhan Shinwa Taikei

Shinobu Oshino

I've heard all of it, but haven't watch it :p

user1306322

but why?

those are some of the most popular titles

Shinobu Oshino

2:30 AM

I prefer new anime. I just become otaku not long ago, about a year or so. Before that, I only read one piece and conan, nothing else. Not even watch the anime series, only read manga

so for me to follow every series is...hard

user1306322

for me it's kinda hard to stay focused on only one story

I prefer learning tons of new stuff every day, if possible

and so I like the thought-provocative things

Shinobu Oshino

@user1306322 that's what I do, the only long series anime I watch is doraemon when I was a kid. I watch everything, buy every manga, doll, etc. Sweet childhood memories

user1306322

it's funny how I can almost always tell now if I'll like an anime by its artistic style

yeah 1700+ episodes is A LOT

so far, the monogatari series has been the most thought-provoking for me

Shinobu Oshino

@user1306322 two episode per week in 10 years on my local tv channel

ah, monogatari, watch it for 7 times already, and I still missing some point

user1306322

in my world, there is no such thing as 2 episodes per week, there's only all of it until it ends

if anything is unclear, you can always ask :)

I'm still trying to find time to carefully re-watch the second season and figure out the color frames

I have some thoughts, but I wanna be sure

19

A: What do the black and red scenes mean?

Overview Ah, the Monogatari [color] Scenes. Before we talk about what they mean, let's look at some of them. First, you've got the two classics: Red Scene... ...and Black Scene. But wait, there's more! You've got various kinds of White Scene... ...different kinds of Yellow Scene (the se...

gotta top that answer

maybe not in terms of upvotes, but in clarity and evidence

Shinobu Oshino

2:44 AM

@user1306322 I save all the question until the series end. I got a feeling some of missing plot are not yet explain

shouldn't the color mean how araragi feeling?

that answer is great I think

user1306322

yes, it's about the current feeling, but there's a bit more to it

sometimes it corresponds with obvious events, but sometimes out of nowhere different color appears

the answer's good, but I have a feeling it can be better

whoa, it's almost time for the new episode of the game of thrones

I think it's already here

@ShinobuOshino you should ask those questions now, there may be people looking for answers to them, and they'll be better off learning from us here than from those weirdos on yahoo answers

I'll be going now coz it's super extra late with a cherry on top and I'm still watching that GoT episode before sleep

Shinobu Oshino

@user1306322 ok then, happy watching

Ueda-kun, bring us two Calpis.
Add milk to mine.
Do you drink yours with water, Furuya-kun?
No, I'll have it with milk.
That's how Mom served it!
Really, now?
Then we were raised the same way.
Even though we know we won't get taller,
we're still drinking milk.
I apologize for the wait.
Here are your 70-30 Calpis milks.

this is from Space Brothers episode 21 (or so it appears)

What kind of non-alcoholic non-carbonized drink is that Calpis?

why are they discussing whether to dilute it with milk or water?

Alex M.

> Then we were raised the same way.

100% perfect logic

user1306322

also what's 70 and what's 30 in this mix?

Alex M.

Calpis

is a Japanese uncarbonated soft drink, manufactured by , headquartered in Shibuya, Tokyo. Calpis Co. is a subsidiary of Ajinomoto. The beverage has a light, somewhat milky, and slightly acidic flavor, similar to plain or vanilla-flavored yogurt or Yakult. Its ingredients include water, nonfat dry milk and lactic acid, and is produced by lactic acid fermentation. The drink is sold as a concentrate which is mixed with water or sometimes milk just before consumption. A pre-diluted version known as , or its carbonated variety, known as , are also available. It is also used to flavor kakigori...

user1306322

from my experience fansub groups tend to choose the wrongest words when it comes to precise stuff

Alex M.

they dilute it with milk

70% is the percentage of Calpis in the mix

user1306322

3:58 PM

and so 70% is Calpis, right?

Alex M.

30% is the percentage of milk

that's my guess yeah

Q: Who exactly is Maria?

watched the Puella Magi Madoka Magica The Movie: Rebellion, got to say the ending was much better than i was led to belive, at least how things are the Incubators are Homura's bitches and Madoka gets to live a peaceful life if she chooses.

and then there's the shoujo ai/yuri stuff which could be spawned from this, Homura and Madoka start dating and get married, Madoka regains her memories and argues with Homura for her selfishness, after they fight Madoka realizes that Homura's selfishness and dedication to her is what mades Homura the woman she loves, ofcause i'm asking too much for the writers to do that, concidering how much crap they put Madoka and Homura though

It's fun how Shaft doesn't treat their viewers like idiots, but at the same time even an idiot would understand the main plotline. Rarely seen in other works.

Madoka stuff though… I guess I wasn't paying too much attention to the mechanics of that magic world

Memor-X

@user1306322 wise move as there's always the chance that by reading a doujin it'll be set after Rebellion, i thought i saw a doujin cover of Homura, Madoka and Bebe thinking it was going to be like Nanoha, Fate and Vivio but Bebe is more of Mami's daughter

user1306322

@Memor-X (I know some of these words :p)

I can't really see myself reading the manga, I'm here only for the major entertainment and explanation of interesting constructs.

Psychological struggle and such aside, I like to find out how the creators thought their world would function.

But I'm not that big a fan of the character's relationships unless the anime is specifically about that.

Memor-X

@user1306322 from my understanding, most of the manga are recaps of the series/movies, only about maybe 2 or 3 manga series are original stories lines, i'm interested in Joan's one since she was burned for "being a witch" which has a hole different meaning in Puella Magi Madoka Magica
