@Gao lol, i first played it on PS1 aswell when i was like 10 and because i sucked at it and it was second hand with the console and a memory card i used existing save data from the start of Disk 2 and 3 so had less idea what was going on, ie. who are these Laguna and Kiros guy and why when i so see REENE in Disk 3 does DRYAD fall alseep and i'm back as Laguna in Knight Armor....and who is this Ward guy?

@Proxy it's from Red VS Blue. you know how ohayou sound like Ohio, the US State. well in Red VS Blue the Freelancers code names are US States so on occasion Caboose will say a random US State after Wyoming and Tex(as) are said as if it's a game

Q: What the anime dakimakura can be used?

As is known to all, the animes are very famous in all over the world.To be honest, I am an otaku , I am addicted to the world that is made by the animes people, it is so cute and happy.And I am very curious to know that anime dakimakura can be used, please tell me!

@AndrewT. don't think so. if i'm think of the same user your talking about, that one had previous questions here, they didn't need to make an account

am i bad at english or the question doesn't make sense

Memor-X

actually it's still a niche thing in Japan

@ASCII-only if you had the power to actualize new worlds from books and stories then yes

6:43 AM

@mirroroftruth i don't think anyone here can understand the question lol

Andrew T.

I assumed they created a new account to push the "otaku" question without pointing to the original user... oh wait, probably that previous user invited their otaku friends here...

Memor-X

@ASCII-only the best i can assume is that it's asking how to use dakimakura or what they are used for

mirroroftruth

do you even consider them as otaku, i don't think so

Andrew T.

more like, "weeaboo"? :D

Potential answer: a pillow (makura) to embrace/cling (daki)

beyond that is up to anyone's imagination

Memor-X

@AndrewT. to be honest i think that but if they are willing to learn and improve they do graduate from being just a weeaboo since, in my opinion, weeaboos are in their own little world where anime is the perfect thing and everything they know is gospel truth

*everyone looks at Memor-X's as being a shoujo ai/yuri weeaboo*........hey, i'm not in my own little world, i'm in a Reality Marble, big difference!

Earl Grey

here's a little word for you and all beginner who do creative work

> All of us who do creative work, we get into it because we have good taste. But there is this gap. For the first couple years you make stuff, it’s just not that good. It’s trying to be good, it has potential, but it’s not. But your taste, the thing that got you into the game, is still killer. And your taste is why your work disappoints you. A lot of people never get past this phase, they quit. Most people I know who do interesting, creative work went through years of this.

> We know our work doesn’t have this special thing that we want it to have. We all go through this. And if you are just starting out or you are still in this phase, you gotta know its normal and the most important thing you can do is do a lot of work.

Daniel Rigg

What else?

mirroroftruth

@僕の彼女 yo/

僕の彼女

\o ^^

mirroroftruth

@EarlGrey and there is something call genius or born with it, they hate to do those thing and they are so good that they do not need to step "that" phase

but yes, you should try hard and that pays good :D

Earl Grey

@mirroroftruth even those with natural talent have that phase. At first they might feel satisfied with their drawing but the more they look, the more they hate it. And as they explore the bigger world of art, they feel the same way we did

talent help them improve but without practice it's nothing

just my opinion

@DanielRigg find the specific aspect you want to improve and try to find tutorial about it

mirroroftruth

your opinion is not mistaken

Earl Grey

yeah well, for one thing thanks for telling me that. Pointing out mistake is one thing, no hurt feeling but I didn't really appreciate someone else editing my work. You can just tell me to use wrap with PS

Daniel Rigg

@EarlGrey and what if I draw poorly?

Earl Grey

just keep drawing really. What makes you think it's bad

Hakase

@EarlGrey don't actually use warp though, it's just a quick and dirty way of shaping a bezier curve

I'm guessing you didn't draw it with curves though

so you could probably easily just redraw it a couple times and find a shape that seems good

僕の彼女

9:38 AM

@Hakase which gif are you talking about?

Daniel Rigg

@EarlGrey Why do I draw poorly?

Hakase

sorry if I hurt your artistic pride by editing your finished piece :p

Earl Grey

it's fine

Hakase

@DanielRigg because of a combination of factors, obviously

Daniel Rigg

it seems to me you're just starting out and don't even know for sure if you want to draw

@DanielRigg you were given various suggestions to get started. try to come up with a specific problem you are having with drawing. at this point people will simply get frustrated with your broad question

Daniel Rigg

if you're an artist then please tell me how to improve my drawing to stop drawing poor

Earl Grey

12:45 PM

what do you seek in your drawing, what kind of drawing you want to make

Daniel Rigg

I am saying I want to stop drawing poor

Earl Grey

try tracing

if your goal is only stop drawing poor

Memor-X

@DanielRigg practice, get feedback and improve. almost everyone will start off poorly the only way to improve is to practice and see what needs improving

Daniel Rigg

@EarlGrey but they say you shouldn't do tracing

Earl Grey

yesterday, by кяαzєя

Contrary to popular opinion, tracing is a good technique to help you get used to different forms and style. However don't use it as a crutch. Move onto reference images once you are more comfortable, from then once you've reach a good point, move onto your own original composition

Krazer got a good point here

Daniel Rigg

12:49 PM

@EarlGrey but they say you are not doing basics of art you do tracing

hey?

Earl Grey

why don't you post your drawing here

Daniel Rigg

But if I do what will you do about it?

1:09 PM

@DanielRigg maybe give you some ideas on what you can do to improve?

Q: Besides holding up her breasts, what is the use of Hestia's Ribbon?

I was awarded Hestia's Ribbon when I started the game and it is just sitting in my Special Inventory. However, I haven't found anywhere to exchange it yet. Anyone know what it can be used for?

Memor-X

@DanielRigg do you want people to give you feedback? because one of the best ways to improve is finding people who can give you constrictive feedback to help you get better

Gao

@Memor-X i guess the game's reason doesn't have to agree with the anime/manga's

unless it's deleted, i don't see a similar question asked here

Earl Grey

1:31 PM

but is it really holding up her breasts

Gao

iirc the answer is yes, but i don't have the source

"Oppai Loli", what a name

but the ribbon can be use for holding in that position only, if her hand is straight then ribbon will fall down

@nhahtdh if it is popular one then might be able to

nhahtdh

@mirroroftruth Well, the first one should be easy (?)

mirroroftruth

the problem is i usually skip ending and opening so, i don't know

nhahtdh

I played a bunch of these on DTXMania, so I know how the drum sequences are very similar between songs. I only pick those which have signature sequences

mirroroftruth

i can't, for me it is just the normal beat, nothing that reminds me of any anime

mirroroftruth

actually, even if it was complete music with out lyrics i would not have know about the anime

i have listened to one punch ost only once

nhahtdh

At least listen to the OP and ED once, and sometimes, the OP/ED are different for each episode

9. midishrine.com/midi/58397.mid

mirroroftruth

let me try all of them

@nhahtdh why random number

nhahtdh

Just some number I have on the files on my side. Some of them still sound generic, even though I handpicked and converted them to midi file

So what I uploaded are those that may have some chance at being identified

mirroroftruth

2:01 PM

aha, it is really hard to recognize anime with just the drumbeats

nhahtdh

Added some hints:

1. http://midishrine.com/midi/58392.mid Fall 2015
2. http://midishrine.com/midi/58393.mid Winter 2016
3. http://midishrine.com/midi/58394.mid Sping 2016

6. http://midishrine.com/midi/58396.mid Spring 2015 [HARD]

Ignore number 6, since the snare is too strong with the default MIDI device.

not for drawing or reading text books

nhahtdh

I have a Samsung tablet

Hakase

my sister has a samsung tablet also, we picked it for her about a year ago

I haven't had enough time with it to read manga and get a feel of the screen tho

I think she has a 8" model with like 1280 or 1366 and I'm looking at 10" with fullhd

nhahtdh

Mine is 10" model, which is rather heavy to lug around, but great for reading manga or LN

Though it's rather straining on the eyes after a while

Hakase

how so

more straining than a monitor?

are you looking at it in a badly lit room?

nhahtdh

More or less the same, but I heard that a Kindle would be better for reading an extended length of time

Well, I do read in dark room, with lowest brightness settings

Hakase

6:37 PM

what makes me mad about ebooks is their screen refresh rate

also I'm looking at 7"+ and there are only 5 models available

price is mad

comparable to a tablet

I'm in doubt about the screen resolution of those ebooks for reading manga

maybe for text it doesn't matter as much but the drawings tho

nhahtdh

I don't know if they even support manga in the first place.

Hakase

most of them support .jpg

I wanna be able to zoom the fuck in to see the tiny details

nhahtdh

Hmm... Looks rather nice

like you can't discern those tiny pronunciation hint text near kanji

Just try out the device and decide. Personally, I prefer my tablet, since I can use it for other stuffs than reading, and everything I read is pirated anyway

I don't want a slow-ass text reader which also kinda supports image displaying
