It's about a girl who gets into trouble at school who meets a delimquent boy and they fall in love. The girl is very strong physically and has either black or blonde hair. The boy has spiky hair and a bandage on his forehead (I think?) I thought the title was "Heart Attack" but I can't find it on...

I remember reading a quick review of a manga that referenced Tsuyokute directly. It was about a boy who had lived for a few decades after his village was destroyed learning everything he could about magic, and then right as he died, a book sent him back into his past body while it was a child. He...

Q: What happened at the end of the movie?

I haven't seen the original series of Captain Harlock, however I recently watched the movie during our most recent Weekend Anime Extra. I feel like I followed along with the plot pretty well, and understood where the story was the whole time... That is until we got to the last few minutes and ev...

Q: Can I skip episodes in Shipudden?

Currently, I'm at 52 when Team Kakashi meets Sasuke. I really want to see Naruto in sage mode which is somewhere around 150 episode. So which all episodes (fillers) can I skip?

@ʞɹɐzǝɹ do we know who the lead developer's name is?

ʞɹɐzǝɹ

@Memor-X ibm japan?

Yokhen

they just have to keep referencing that mediocre anime don't they?

Quill

why wouldn't they? it's popular => popular things make money

Memor-X

@ʞɹɐzǝɹ so i mean a person's name. it's not someone named Akihiko Kayaba is it

@Yokhen well what better way to show off VR Technology then using a game from a popular anime which is a prime example of what gamers always wanted out of VR

or would you rather 100 rail tour games

Yokhen

100 who?

Memor-X

03:57

@Yokhen rail tour games. there the kind of game where you practically on a set of rails looking around as your taken on a tour of a place. like a roll-a-coaster

Yokhen

uhm maybe

i'd rather have an RPG, but SAO doesn't bring good memories

Memor-X

@Yokhen why? you didn't like the anime?

Yokhen

It was ok, but the overhyping made me hate it. It had too many pitfalls to adore it like so many people do.

Quill

Mirror's Edge is what would good in VR ;)

Yokhen

@Quill Now, that I would love to see.

does anyone know what makes durarara special? I'm debating on whether to watch it or not.

Quill

Memor-X

@SeptianPrimadewa i'd play it just to fire the Aussie Gun

Quill

@Memor-X there's an Aussie Gun?

I mustn't have played that far

Memor-X

@Quill it;s the gun which talks in a fowl mouth when you fire it. quite sure it says some Australian only slang

Good Game highlighted it during their review

also the gun is voiced by an Australian.....much like half the cast

Quill

Q: manga where one of the character can make portals and wears a uniform that looks like a flight attendants uniform

I remember reading this a long while back and got the urge to read it again after seeing a picture of one of the characters there but I can't remember the name of the manga

@Memor-X i dont want that for Saber ._.

Memor-X

@Frosteeze for Nero it's nothing, don't forget she strangled a lion in the Colosseum while naked

Quill

wat

how does one do that

Memor-X

@Quill what, strangle a lion or not die from embarrassment being naked in front of most of Rome

Quill

the lion part

Memor-X

@Quill i assume with Beauty and Elegance befitting of Nero's artistic nature

Q: Why isn't Digimon consistent with its rule mechanics per story/season title?

@Sakamoto This is the best one I came across so far :D

Memor-X

@Martin-マーチン i have seen one which was an image and then just a bunch of . to pad out for the character limit

Martin - マーチン

omg

i mean, I have seen pretty awful post on chem, so why wouldn't they be here

Btw, how are you?

Memor-X

@Martin-マーチン good, yourself?

Martin - マーチン

I'm fine... completed a publication, so I was pretty much free to do nothing today :D

so I decided to play some random games :D

And update some posts...

so basically nothing :D

And it's a long weekend, too, so more nothing coming in ＼（＾▽＾）／

Memor-X

09:52

@Martin-マーチン long weekend because of a public holiday?

Martin - マーチン

Yes, in Japan the spring equinox is a public holiday. This is on sunday, so there is a substitute holiday on monday.

I am trying to catch some really early sakura tomorrow :D

Memor-X

@Martin-マーチン oh how i envy you. i think i have a Sakura variant in my backyard but it's no nearly as pink as what i see in photos on the internet

Martin - マーチン

oh there is a wide variety from white to somewhat purple-ish

the ones I saw in Okinawa were quite dark

Memor-X

@Martin-マーチン well when spring comes around and they bloom i might post images here and see if they really are Sakura

curious @Martin-マーチン, you've seen the Graduation Ceremony's in Japan first hand correct?

Martin - マーチン

No, I did not yet have the pleasure

I might be going to one next wednesday though

Memor-X

09:59

@Martin-マーチン oh, i was hoping i could get an answer to this

Mar 11 at 11:50, by Memor-X

In K-ON!! how close is the Graduation Ceremony at the end to the real thing in Japan?

Martin - マーチン

@Memor-X oh yes please post pictures, so we can compare :D

@Memor-X do you have a video link for this? I can watch it, and tell you next week after I attended

Memor-X

@Martin-マーチン all i know it's episode 24 of season 2. i don't have a video link

i'm really curious if students do pin flowers on the graduates like they do in that episode and if so how exactly do the choose which students get to do it?

Martin - マーチン

hmmm... i'll have a look ;)

Memor-X

@Martin-マーチン thanks....also another question....where is your blue coming from?

Martin - マーチン

chemistry.se

@Memor-X This is what you are talking about? -> randomc.net/2010/09/14/k-on-s2-24-end

Memor-X

10:12

@Martin-マーチン yeh, fifth and sixth image you see Mio and Mugi getting this flower pinned on them. first thing is ofcause if this really happens and if so how do the students get chosen because it can't be that every non graduating students gets to pin a flower on a graduate because there can't be that many graduates

i also just learned that the episodes i have been seeing on TV are cenored because i didn't see blood on Azusa's forehead

Martin - マーチン

Hmmm... this looks like high school

Memor-X

@Martin-マーチン it is.

Martin - マーチン

hmmm, I'm afraid I won't be of much use then, I'm going to a university graduation

Taisho

Memor-X

dam. just needed to know for a story plot where the MC's girlfriend is graduating. if i know the basis it'll help with coming up with the subplot

Martin - マーチン

10:19

I can ask around, I have a few friends here, that all had graduation. I guess some of them might talk about it.

Hakase

it's so empty in here

or is everyone hiding?

used to be much less hiding

Martin - マーチン

@Hakase boo.

How are you?

Hakase

it wasn't super effective

I'm okay

I see you're alright yourself

Martin - マーチン

sorry for the ineffectiveness

Hakase

I wouldn't want it any other way

Martin - マーチン

10:28

yeah I'm fine. It's soon time to go home and into the weekend :D

Hakase

I'm looking around to find out how I could make a game with some people

I've been reading and listening about that for a few years, now I think might be the time to do something

making stuff alone is not very effective as I'm pretty lazy

but if I see someone else working and cheering, I can push on too

some guys in this room are making a Japanese learning app but I haven't heard about it since the start

idk of any other interesting collaborative projects by users here

@Tosh are you interested in making any games?

Martin - マーチン

sounds fun and interesting

what kind of game do you have in mind?

like a role play or adventure?

Hakase

hehe that was my to-go question a few years back

I'm looking for some simple game that won't need complex story, or marvelous art

definitely no rocket science level strategy mechanics

I pulled off a terraria clone once, I think I can do something with 2d platformers

too simple hit-n-run games like match 3 are out of the question though coz there's no way it will earn any money

desktop primarily, possibly mobile, definitely not mobile exclusive

Martin - マーチン

ohhh... I love match 3 games

Hakase

how much have you spent on them in your lifetime?

as in money, not time

Martin - マーチン

10:35

hmm, don't remember, not much

i grew up in a time when you bought a game once and then played it until you are tired of it

Hakase

time killer games idk how to earn with and it seems like they require crazy marketing to be profitable

Memor-X

@Hakase i was having a shower and @ToshinouKyouko is trying to be a lurker

Hakase

I can see that

Martin - マーチン

I have no idea about how these things work, and I am a very bad target for making money

Hakase

@ToshinouKyouko lurking in the shower waters (ecchi)

Darjeeling

10:37

^ Hakase saw you having shower @////@

Hakase

I've seen more intense things

Darjeeling

:o

Hakase

I've even had a shower myself :p

Memor-X

@Hakase first thing you need to know is how you'll make the game. there's programs which can help build one like Game Maker, RPG Maker and Unity

Hakase

I'm a programmer, I'll manage

Memor-X

10:39

@Hakase @ton.yeung was starting one. i havn't heard about it since either

@Hakase no i mean lurking in the chat like the other lurker mods

Hakase

I thought he's making a Japanese learning app with ardaozkal and someone else

mods don't really count, it's kinda their job to sit here

ton's actively avoiding chat these days

Memor-X

@Martin-マーチン i appreciate it

Martin - マーチン

np

Taisho

Memor-X

@Hakase they earn money by bring free to download but having a premium currency which costs real money which can be used to speed up stuff. or get more resouces

Hakase

10:43

first they gotta attract enough players which is pretty hard at this point

idk anything about how the mobile players think so I bet my marketing will be the worst

so I'm not touching that unless I can rely on someone else in that department

first of all I'm looking for like-minded people with enough skills to actually do something

most of the stuff I find is either pros looking for jobs in stable companies, or complete noobs who don't know what they want

I haven't looked enough yet to find the place where my kinda people hang out

Quill

@Hakase that kinda died

Hakase

yea I bet

Quill

or at least our contributions, I don't know whether Ton is still working on it

Hakase

will there be a post-mortem?

we could ask but he's avoiding chat

Memor-X

@Hakase maybe he's like @LoganM and has had all his free time being used up for another prjtect. if he's still doing the app it might explain it

Hakase

10:47

@ton I'd like to hear what went wrong if it's officially over

I'd like to hear anything about it regardless

so if anyone is up for making or discussing how to make a small game, ping me anytime

Quill

@Hakase He wanted us to sign a NDA before he released the PoC to us

it just didn't work out

Hakase

yea I remember nda

don't remember any details about the app tho

like any at all

I have no idea how it would work or look like

Quill

he didn't really release any

we didn't even know

Hakase

that's a hard project to join

Memor-X

11:19

i always thought it would be like the Learning Japanese app or the Human Japanese app where it would be structured in lessons with some gameification elements added into it

Toshinou Kyouko

11:40

@Hakase i like games, i dont have much time to hobby-code nowadays tho

Hakase

@ToshinouKyouko I'm not asking for codes, just if you're interested in talking about it

Toshinou Kyouko

@Hakase sure :)

Hakase

the point is to have fun, not just work-work-work

Toshinou Kyouko

if only :'(

i made some games before, they were pretty dumb

I had a 100-games in one game

but it was all just the same game with different names

Hakase

tetris 9999 in one?

Toshinou Kyouko

11:45

almost it was a tank game

Memor-X

I've been working on the one game for years. the one obstacle which i keep hitting is how to generate 500 skills in the RPG Maker XP Skills Database without Ctrl + C, Ctrl + V, make minor alterations. i think i have a way to do it if autoit or autohotkey pans out

Hakase

so basically one game with multiple levels for it

sounds alright

@Memor-X probably calls for a custom part for the skills at that point

should ask on gamedev, they probably know a better way

Toshinou Kyouko

here are some of the names

Tank Game
Game of Tank
Tanks 2
Tank4
Tank Simulator 2013
Tank Shoot
Super Tank
1997 Tank

Tank Invasion
Future Tank

Memor-X

@SWard that will be a shame

Toshinou Kyouko

11:53

@Darjeeling this was before I watched Girls und panzer unfortunately

back when I was a baby otaku

Memor-X

@Hakase another image only id request......

wait why did you block Sakamoto?

Hakase

coz of all the IDs

they annoy me

I've hid them on the main site so there aren't any there

SWard

@Memor-X I think the only way they will get the picture (pun fully intended) is if we just have huge letters pop up on the screen when a question is asked that we do not do img related requests

Hakase

he posts everything here so I blocked everything

Memor-X

@ToshinouKyouko is there any way to have Sakamoto not post question based on which tags are included?

Toshinou Kyouko

11:54

@Memor-X dunno

Hakase

let's have a Bad Sakamoto which only posts IDs so I can block him

Quill

@Memor-X no

Toshinou Kyouko

Saka-oh-no!

Quill

Sakamoto has everything

Toshinou Kyouko

i apoligise

Hakase

11:55

not everything he has is good

are you sure?

I think he's rss based

Memor-X

@SWard ok, so that means we have to wait until SO's php questions get so bad they will do that so the SEx Gods can add that functionality

Hakase

you know about rss, maybe you can find a way

Toshinou Kyouko

I dunno how to interact with him

he was there before i became a mod

Quill

@ToshinouKyouko he's just an RSS feed

if you can find one that fits what @Memor-x says, then you just replace the source

SWard

@Memor-X probably, it also seems that a lot of these image requests come from people that have very limited English skills

Quill

11:57

although IMO it's better to keep Sakamoto posting crappy stuff in here so it gets closed faster

Hakase

as I said we could have a Bad Sakamoto

Hakase

12:19

no?

ok

Quill

meh

If you can find the RSS it might be a good idea

we could have Bad Sakamoto appear as that box in the top left corner too

JNat

@Quill I agree with this, and see no need for separating the feeds.

But that's just my opinion

Quill

If you really want to pursue it @Hakase, meta might be the way to go, but meh, it's not like Taisho is really causing an issue or whatever

Hakase

12:35

I don't care

SWard

@JNat you read anymore of the air gear series?

JNat

@SWard I haven't even had a chance to finish the one you sent me yet :P

I read about half of it

SWard

thoughts so far?

JNat

No strong feelings one way or the other so far. It had some funny moments.

I'll give you some more elaborate thoughts once I finish that first book

SWard

kk

JNat

12:40

As well as a decision on whether I continue reading it, or drop it ;)

It's definitely not something I would have picked myself. But I find it interesting to sometimes try something like that

Regardless of whether or not I end up enjoying it ;)

I generally am entertained by what they post, but recently it's gone down hill

what do you read anyways?

besides that site

shaggy

eh, don't embarrass me! cause to be honest, not a lot as of recently. I was reading the overlord LN, but as far as other news sites, ANN, slashdot, thats about it, you have anything to recommend? i'm obviously in desperate need... haha

Q: Is there any in-universe explanation why all the fleet are girls?

In Kantai Collection, as the subtitled says, "Combined Fleet Girls Collection" have all their fleet depicted as girls, known as "Fleet girls", or kanmusu.

Hakase

I've seen all those jokes on imgur before where I've spent 2 years

not really a cute dog/baby person

cats are fine every once in a while

I'm still exploring reddit

there seem to be a lot of specific subsections but there are too many and I don't have enough motivation to sit through some huge directory and find the ones I like

so I think my first step should be making an account and blacklisting the stuff I don't wanna see on the front page

but then I remember I don't like having accounts

I had a youtube account before, but my recommendations/related videos were full of such nonsense I had to use anonymous mode every time from then on

it's relevant for some time, then I gotta restart the private window

it can probably be cured by some cookie-clearing addon just for youtube but I don't wanna bother

shaggy

13:55

i'm cool with the occasional feline as well.
as far as reddit goes, I've know about it for awhile but never conformed.
but here recently I do find some interesting things, and post that are actually helpful
I'll have to try and sift through the site as well, but usually I just use it as a keyword in search for particular questions in google.

Hakase

I think Arstechnica is the best tech news site at the moment but even they are full of crap posts

allgamesdelta is the games news site

reddit is actually also full of crap

basically to be able to find good stuff you gotta sit down for each site and find out a way to configurizazzle it to your suit your preferences

shaggy

the internet is full of crap

haha yep thats it. and generally I just don't want to have to do that

Hakase

unfortunately that's the only way

shaggy

but the internet is also full of 2d gurllllls
