Q: Manga with setting in postwar japan, assuming Japan had won the war

infoholic_anonymousI read few years ago about a manga that was a vison of Japan if it had won the second world war. It was shown as an example of hentai market, namely that if a set percentage of sex scenes is granted, the authors are less restricted about the plot itself and therefore it can be pretty intriguing a...

Q: Help me figure out an anime from my childhood

DanielI lived in Venezuela from 1998-2002 in that time I saw an anime movie that has haunted my dreams. I believe it was on the Venezuelan equivalent of Toonami, maybe not.What I saw was a movie but it always seemed to a continuation of something else. I never felt like I got the whole story. Here's wh...

 
12:39 AM
@Memor-X They did it for three days straight (with some reasonable breaks). And it is way more on the yuri side. There is a naked girl (mostly MC) in every episode.
Tusk says it during a fight with Embyro to put him off-balance.

Q: Help identifying anime with a young caligrapher and a fantasy world

clockworkSo, I just attended a con and saw a wonderful AMV focusing on an anime I had never seen/heard of before.

12:59 AM
@Mindwin urrrg, for some reason i'm getting the feeling the yuri in it is more fan servicey by throwing in echii scenes of girls in risque lesbian situations. or maybe my initial impression of Cross Ange being about a princess who looks down on a group of outcasts until she learns she is one of them and is cast out and comes to terms with it though developing a romantic relationship with one of them got spoiled when my friend pointed out that said princess has an in canon ship with a guy
 
@ton.yeung why
@ton.yeung this is false, you just need to wait
@ton.yeung okay, that's reasonable

Q: Why is Hoshimiya Kate's Seifuku Jikan weak against Tobacco?

MindwinDuring the series, whenever Kate tries to use her Seifuku Jikan on smokers, the attack fails to conquer the target. There are several other moments when smoke and smokers are shown to have an effect on the Zvezda team: One theory is that what the enemies are smoking is quite not tobacco.....

Q: When did the trend of doing a Title Drop on the last episode started, and what is the reason of doing it?

MindwinSeveral anime series (I would say half of them) do a Title Drop on the last episode: the final episode's title is the same as the series. Around when did it become so commonplace, and what are the reasons for the showmakers to do so?

 
1:54 AM
thanks @Mindwin you gave me a new shoujo ai/yuri title to hunt, now i only pray it has been at least scalated
 
2:09 AM
@Eric I could have a few years ago. These days, most of them just rip translations from CR and edit, at which point there isn't that much difference between the best and worst in terms of translation accuracy, and the quality generally varies from show to show. There's still other factors to consider, like video quality, but I don't know how much I can say about that. I can tell you if a group is terrible, but I don't think I can differentiate very well between the decent ones.
Feel free to ask though.
 
@LoganM The two I'm looking at are NoobSubs and BlurayDesuYo. The show has a Funimation release (but censored), so I'm not sure if they reused the subs or whether I should be worried about quality.
 
BlurayDesuYo is DameDesuYo's bluray releases. I can't tell you what translation they used, but you can check on the release post. They're generally watchable. Noob subs is just a re-encoder, so they'll take existing releases and try to improve them. I don't think I've ever used them so I can't comment on quality.
 
kk, thanks
 
@Eric what're you watching?
 
@Frosteeze Tokyo Ghoul, since the version I have is censored by Funimation.
 
2:16 AM
ah ok
 
@Eric censored violence?
 
they heavily censored the tv version for TG
dem shadows and dem negative coloring
 
Yeah. Not just stylized stuff, I could live with that. A lot of blackouts.
 
From the list of groups that have released it, I'd say go with DameDesuYo or Chyuu.
I don't know whether Chyuu did the BDs though.
 
Yeah, looking closer, NoobSubs is a re-release of DameDesuYo's with two extra scenes.
 
2:19 AM
 
@ton.yeung Because they have to wait on Blu-ray releases.
S1's Blu-ray release is finished.

The censoring wasn't bad enough to drop. (Wasn't as bad as Terra Formars.)
But it's definitely better w/out.

Q: An anime with mobile suits and pilot is linked to the suit itself

KurisuchinI once watched an episode from Animax about mobile suits. I though at first that it was Gundam series (I only watched GS and GSD) since the suits looked similar. But after a while, I noticed that the pilots are linked to the mobile suits just like in the movie, Pacific Rim. Like, half of their bo...

 
Speaking of censorship, Shinmai Maou no Testament probably has the funniest censors in a while. I didn't even mind when they took up 90% of the screen and I couldn't see what was going on at all.
Overall a decent show. Definitely not as good as HS DxD, but it's better than most of the other attempts at replicating HS DxD we've seen.

"Because Jesus said so"
@LoganM So you are clearly Jesus. You who provide salvation to mankind by providing us with infinite lolis and pics of cute 2D girls.

@Sakamoto my hentai-dar is pinging
@ton.yeung or that, reason why i said grease-monkey etc. wasn't bothered to list the ones i know
@ton.yeung your not suggesting to alter the css in the browser console are you cause that's just dumb, it'll be gone when the page relaods
or did Stack Exchange release a system to upload custom css styles by users

I once redesigned the whole site with userscript and CSS

If it's a bunch of random guesses, I'd say delete. If it's a bunch of legitimate guesses based on the question's text, the question is probably not sufficiently well-defined to be answerable, so close.

The only thing I can think to do is to edit the answer to be about the correct one.
 
@nhahtdh he did some discussion with op and guess the correct answer but still post all those anime on his answer
 
The second one is just a bunch of guesses thrown at the question without explaining at all. I'd say delete. The question needs some clarification too though.

@ToshinouKyouko That's true, but investment isn't measured by how expensive it is.
It's measured by how much yield it gets you.
And if you're good at what you do, a house gains a lot of yield very fast.
 
I suppose so
property over here is silly money at the moment, unless you move a few hours out from the main city

@nhahtdh It's bout Rave Master. The story takes place in the year 0015. So what was the year 16 years before?
 
@GaoWeiwei Oh. That does look like the tail was severed. Though my house has some cats and their tail has always been short
 
I thought cats die if their tails are cut?
