Q: Looking for a specific manga

Basically, the boy lives with his childhood friend/girlfriend even though he lives very close (possibly next door). He meets her best friend, and they have sex. Lots. He has to keep it a secret from his girlfriend and ends up having sex with lots of girls. I cannot remember what it is called so p...

@Sakamoto as specific as it is described, it's actually a very common scenario in manga :p

If anyone visits Ireland, feel free to visit me ^_^

Hakase

2:32 PM

if you'll still be living there at that point, surely

deadlydragon00

Sure if we can ;D, but make sure you have lots of ICE CREAM hahha

Unihedro

Ireland is a great place! I've heard great stories about Belfast.

Hakase

As long as you have Ice Cream. Its a great Place

Toshinou Kyouko

I am not very well travelled

@ToshinouKyouko How long is your trip?

Toshinou Kyouko

but it seems cool - Titanic museum, Game of Thrones set, etc

Unihedro

@deadlydragon00 As long as you're optimistic, the world is a great place.

Toshinou Kyouko

@nhahtdh 3-4 weeks

2:34 PM

@ToshinouKyouko That sounds great

Hakase

@Unihedro ice cream helps with optimistic outlook :p

Toshinou Kyouko

Toshinou Kyouko

it all depends on whether my work will give me money when I leave or not

Murphy's law

Murphy's law is an adage or epigram that is typically stated as: Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong. == History == The perceived perversity of the universe has long been a subject of comment, and precursors to the modern version of Murphy's law are not hard to find. Recent significant research in this area has been conducted by members of the American Dialect Society. ADS member Stephen Goranson has found a version of the law, not yet generalized or bearing that name, in a report by Alfred Holt at an 1877 meeting of an engineering society. It is found that anything that can go wrong at...

Q: What are Trebol's powers?

According to the wiki page on Trebol, Trebol should be a Logia user, using the sticky fruit's powers. This was verified when we could see Trebol completely unaffected after being cut in pieces by Usopp and Law. Now chapter 782 makes me really confused.

one-piece

Unihedro

The pictures in the starscript are overlapping. xD

Eric

3:07 PM

@nhahtdh 俺が分かったよ。 :P

I don't think a Japanese language chatroom would matter much here anyway, since we don't allow it on the main site.

Even the Japanese Language site's chatrooms don't see much actual nihongo mileage.

nhahtdh

@Eric 他のみんなは分からないから、意味ないじゃん

That turns out a bit weird

Eric

@nhahtdh Indeed.

nhahtdh

Should it be nara instead?

Eric

For naturalness, yeah, but it's understandable as は.

Do you study in school, or are you self-taught?

nhahtdh

Self-taught

Actually, I'm more of a consumer (reading and listening), than producer (writing and speaking)

Eric

3:16 PM

Very nice.

I'm the other way. I can't seem to train my ear properly to catch anything more than a few words at a time.

I read, write, and speak (ish). Listening is a huge area of improvement for me.

nhahtdh

@Eric: Can you watch stuffs like this without sub youtube.com/watch?v=QAYqtN8HJPY

Toshinou Kyouko

I watched some of the new sailor moon without subs

it's not very complex so i got most of it

Eric

@nhahtdh Not too bad, it's pretty understandable. Sometimes a few of her lines are too fast for me to catch, but otherwise okay.

Gao Weiwei

Ongaku Shoujo is out already?

nhahtdh

Dunno, I don't see any full length with full audio on first page of search

@Eric: This one? youtube.com/watch?v=MMJnAoKDKSw I can't hear everything, but I think I can enjoy it for the most part

Eric

@nhahtdh Definitely not as easy. Especially the host; he speaks pretty darn fast.

I don't think even Killua speaks that fast. lol

nhahtdh

@Eric Anime characters usually speak slower

Unihedro

@ton.yeung We won 27 internets!

Eric

@nhahtdh Usually, yeah. It's still quite a hard skill to practice. When I learned Spanish, my weakest point was also listening.

nhahtdh

@Eric Actually, my reading skill is poorer than my listening skill :O

Eric

3:36 PM

Source code for the StackEgg bot is now published for anyone interested. (cc: @GiantCowFilms if you still care.)

@nhahtdh Maybe it's just me, then. haha

nhahtdh

No, I think it's just me

GiantCowFilms

@Eric Thanks

nhahtdh

I watch anime a lot, but only learn the characters from playing eroge + noting the characters down and look up the meaning.

Eric

@nhahtdh Define "a lot" :P

nhahtdh

I had trouble in reading comprehension. Didn't read it fast enough.

@Eric For the past 2-3 seasons, 20 series (all new) per season?

Eric

3:39 PM

Yeah that would do it. I don't watch enough to get consistent listening experience, I think.

Toshinou Kyouko

that is a lot

Eric

I usually pick up 2 series per season.

Toshinou Kyouko

Max I've done is 13

and that was like all my time

Eric

Sometimes 3.

Unihedro

@ton.yeung idk it's a game

Taisho

3:40 PM

Eric

@ton.yeung You'll have to come up with that yourself. :P

nhahtdh

@Eric Actually, I find that playing games is more effective, since you learn both reading and listening skill

I believe I learn more than just watching that much anime the last few seasons

Eric

@nhahtdh I have a hard time finding games in Japanese, though. (At least, ones that have audio. Most visual novels don't.)

nhahtdh

Except for Osadai, I only read nukige, though =_=+

Eric

lol :P

Well I'll give it a look. I should probably try to watch at least 2 episodes of anime without English subs a day.

And potentially add a game in there as well.

nhahtdh

I recommend Osadai: vndb.org/v2622 It's quite funny and has plot (and the only long eroge I read to one ending)

I read FSN in the past (in English), and didn't even manage to finish Fate route

Eric

3:48 PM

@ton.yeung Fair enough, lol. I have Pokemon in Japanese but it's all just reading.

@nhahtdh kk~

Frosteeze

doesn't VN uses a lot of kanji?

nhahtdh

@Frosteeze Depends, but if you learn the (frequently-used) primary school kanji, you should be fine, I think

But for series with complex setting, you will need to learn more than that

Since I watch many anime related to school, I find school themed VN quite comfortable to read

They don't have much vocab

(Of course, if you want to enjoy the H scenes, then you need to learn the vocab for body parts)

Toshinou Kyouko

Hana

Oshino Shinobu

@Hakase oh cool, now how do I use this...

Frosteeze

@nhahtdh well it's just mostly "hnnngh" or "ahhh" anyways for those scenes

nhahtdh

3:59 PM

In Gurren Lagann, Simon has Shimo (下), Kamina has Kami (上), then what is the meaning of Leeron's name

@Frosteeze Well, except for the moans, there are also the actions of the characters

Logan M

This image starring preview thing is so amazing.

nhahtdh

Just looking at the scene vs. looking at the scene and understand what they are talking and doing is different. The latter is more arousing.

Unihedro

@LoganM I know!!! The starscript is no longer dull with links to images, but instead a horizontal bar of pictures! And the pictures are awesome, that's why they're starred on the first place! :D

Hakase

@OshinoShinobu install the same way as the unthumbnailer script

Logan M

@Eric Have you looked into this at all? If it's simple enough, we could try to come up with a mathematically optimal strategy.

Hakase

4:07 PM

@nhahtdh I've always found naming the body parts silly and funny

Eric

@LoganM But we have no way to test it anymore :\

Frosteeze

@LoganM how you gonna test it lol

anyhow, what are peoples thoughts on , akatsuki no yona?

nhahtdh

@shaggy What do you expect out of Akatsuki no Yona?

(I mean initial impression on seeing the title/synopsis/poster/etc.)

shaggy

hmm answering a question with another question.. intriguing, lol. at first i must say i didnt understand your question, but you clarified it quite well.

what do i expect? hmm i honestly didnt put to much thought into it, considerably i have a lot of other content on my hands at the moment to try and get through, most of the other titles in which seem more interesting to me and stuff/genres im more drawn too.

that being said. just looking at the poster, title... i see a fantasy-adventure series.

nhahtdh

@ʞɹɐzǝɹ Yep. Though that quiz from the video makes me curious about other characters

shaggy

basically just seeing what others have thought of it, is it something grandiose, and so well written that its a masterpiece of sorts and something that i shouldnt overlook. or if its something more simple, that can be prioritized later.

nhahtdh

@shaggy For me, I was drawn into the show by the first episode. I love strong girl.

@nhahtdh the 4 generals are portmanteaus of DNA base pair with elemental spirits

Though the anime ended right before the interesting (I presume? Never read the manga) next arc

I watched the short talk after first episode screening of Cross Ange. It is revealed that they wanted to push the series to new boundary

The voice actors are all kind of taken aback at the lines that they have to say, and citing it as "new experience"

sounds like overdramatization

@ton.yeung They push the ecchiness to the max

And that blood in episode 1

Top answer there seems to have the logic followed by the game.

Matches my observations quite closely.

I'm pretty sure the strategy there is sub-optimal though, since it's basically what we were doing.

Actually, I think it's missing some things. Will look into it further.
