I don’t, unfortunately. I have a VCR but no video capture card. If someone else on SB has a setup like that, though, I’d be happy to lend them my tape. Or maybe I can find someone local. If I do I will let you know.
Edit: Actually, there may be no need. Look at this: https://archive.org/details/warriorsofthewind
Edit 2: This rip even has the same preview as my copy for some movie that suggests that the distributor doesn’t know its audience.
i generally dislike science fiction that anthropomorphizes/spiritualizes the internet as a “real place” (ime it’s usually shallow) but i love full limited so i started watching dennou coil
dennou coil is excellent, and I’m looking forward to Iso’s new series.
The anime is set in 2045, where the Internet and AI are commonplace even in space, and centers on a group of children stranded in space after a large-scale accident occurs in a space station. By using narrowband, social networking, and a drone that they can manipulate through smartphones and low-intelligence AI, they overcome many crises.
has there been any update on this? i can’t find any further information past when it was announced
Not that I know of, but Signal.MD takes a long time to work on projects
I got a seven years old version of this:
To digitize all my home movies. It worked great.
Until recently I upgraded to Windows 10 and tried to just launch the edditing software and was holding it hostage to “update” (buy the new version.)
That asside I still recommend it.
That’s the one they put in front of the free youtube versions of the first three movies, in case you’ve watched them.
i can’t get over how much i love dorohedoro
huge women and their huge emotional support himbos, it’s wonderful
had it pointed out about halfway through that the manga was written by a woman and it kind of shows in the way that everything is horny but not in a creepy way
Am about halfway through Hunter x Hunter and it’s pretty neat. It’s super game-y with loads of convoluted rules and the drama coming from creative or subversive use of those rules. The creator doesn’t really seem to give a fuck about building a coherent world but it kinda works.
Better than most shonen I remember since characters remain consistently underpowered relative to villains and usually defeat them through creative strategies rather than brute strength (so far). Also weirdly violent for a show about some 12 year olds enjoying friendship.
I also love that the recurring antagonist’s motivation is just that he’s a pervert with a fetish for determined shonen protagonists and fights to the death.
did a quick check yesterday and reconfirmed that kare kano is the greatest anime ever made
I keep meaning to rewatch this. I selected the first episode of one of two anime viewings for a Japanese culture survey class I taught 3 years ago and was astounded at how absolutely incredible it is on basically every level.
hm the last two episodes are really disappointing actually
Yea, I was all geared up for some sort of climax and it’s a wet fart of a setup for next season. One thing was sort of temporarily resolved and the rest was left to moulder.
They were doing a really good job of taking the stereotypical slice of life plotlines (festival, baseball, battling a rival foodcart) and transplanting them into a fantasy world without beating you over the head with it. And plot progression at the same time! It was a good mixture.
pleased I learnt about the original stardust crusaders OVA only a couple episodes into chapter 3 of the new adaptation whose pacing I was finding unwatchable
yeah the original ova even has early satoshi kon direction and writing
Overall I think the original ova is, because it is less like the source material, better than the source material
I absolutely adored the first two chapters of the new anime after having zero previous jojo exposure, but staring down the barrel of 20 monster of the week episodes after the high bar set by CAESAR ZEPPELI was severely unappealing
Felt exactly the same about arc 3, I think I only made it 3 or 4 episodes in.
It doesn’t help that the new Jo is immediately less likeable than the previous two.
Compare his intro of being shitty to his mother to Josephs fuckin up some cops with a coke bottle
yeah, the OVA is not as spectacularly gay and macho as the new series, but I would strongly recommend watching it in lieu of stardust crusaders 2014 then going back to Diamond is Unbreakable
The OVA is extremely dry and boring. Nobody has a personality, it’s all just po-faced linebackers being Very Serious about fighting a vampire man. Not a single moment of humor. It’s like instead of animating the manga, they animated the wikipedia Plot section summary. Just The Facts.
