I like it when they at least differentiate the title a little bit. Makes it a little bit easier to distinguish between the two games.
Remakes often have different staff, art direction, design philosophy, gameplay, etc. so personally I kinda prefer that they give it a new title instead. Using the exact same title makes me feel like they’re trying to replace the original.
The animated cutscenes in the original P3 are really cool and stylish. I don’t care for them all that much in P4 or P5, but it can definitely be done well. My understanding is that P3Re removed most (all?) of the 2D animation, so you might have your wish anyway.
“it was intended to make roads safer, but one guy told us it’s done just the opposite”
Okay, so I guess that one guy being angry is the opposite of safety.
I’ve been through Amarillo, TX and it was kinda surreal. The ONLY two kinds of business in the city are steak houses and gas stations. It felt like a movie set.
Personally I find that the more anime I watch and the more “anime-literate” I become, I naturally develop a kind of backlog regardless of recommendation algorithms. For example: I watch Mawaru Penguindrum -> I search up the director -> I find out that director Ikuhara is famous for making several other interesting surreal anime -> Yurikuma Arashi, Sarazanmai, and Revolutionary Girl Utena added to the backlog.
I also definitely get a lot out of browsing random people’s profiles and adding stuff that they have on favorites (I have like 45 profiles bookmarked in my browser). This is personally my favorite way to find stuff, just jumping between reviews and profile and conversations in comments.
And then of course there’s other sites where you can find recommendations like lemmy, r/anime, or Youtube. It’s hard to find good anitube nowadays, but there’s still some really good channels out there if you dig. ZNoteTaku and The Bellman are some of my favorites that I’ve found. Trixie the Golden Witch, too. Maybe STEVEM, hazel, and I’ve heard kenny lauderdale is supposed to be good. (This could be its own thread).
But anyway I’m kinda rambling. There’s plenty of ways to find recommendations. Personally I don’t find recommendation algorithms necessary. But if you do, then maybe stick to AniList or MAL. Personally I use MAL but it doesn’t really matter. If you have friends with anime lists, use whatever they use.
Take a look at the user interface of each one and see what you prefer. MAL / AniList users tend to have a strong preference for one UI over the other (I’m on team MAL for that one). I’m not very familiar with animeplanet but I’d also recommend checking out Kitsu.io (or Kitsu.app now, I guess) especially if you want to log western animation like Avatar TLA, My Little Pony, or Arcane.

What did the AI image look like?
where you’re supposed to have decades of Magical Girl trope logic that it brutally defies
From my experience, it’s the opposite. If you’ve seen lots of magical girl anime, Madoka doesn’t really stand out. If you haven’t seen any magical girl anime before but you assume it’s all shallow and happy, then you will be surprised by Madoka.
The eternal struggle of being a mahou shoujo fan is hearing people talk about how Madoka is such a shocking genre deconstruction and then finding out that they haven’t seen any other mahou shoujo before. It’s obvious that they’re just repeating what they’ve heard other people say.
To be fair, Madoka is probably much darker than Pretty Cure or Aikatsu, but it’s only marginally darker / more mature than Cardcaptor Sakura, Princess Tutu, Lyrical Nanoha, or Creamy Mami. And it’s not a bad show, it’s just wildly overrated. Maybe I need to rewatch it
Edit: and for the record, people also exaggerate how dark Princess Tutu is
I think with the quotes in the title and the “(as seen at the evil empire, but I just had to liberate it)” they are trying to imply that they took it from Reddit.

You can’t call it the final solution 😭
Back when I was really into Pokemon I liked Dewott. After not playing Pokemon for several years, I think Pikachu became my favorite; it’s really the only pokemon you get exposed to if you don’t play the games and the design is very iconic.
About a year ago I played Cobblemon (Minecraft Pokemon) and Joltik / Galvantula became my new favorite. 🕷️
Spelunky 2 is working its way up to #1 for me. Still working on 7-99, my best is like 7-64
You’re basically right. The kami in origami means paper 紙 while the kami in kamikaze means god 神. That doesn’t mean you couldn’t make a pun about it, but the more fundamental problem is that kamikaze does not mean “suicide attack” in Japanese. The actual word for it is tokkou 特攻, a euphemism that means “special attack”.
Kamikaze originally refers to this historical event where a “divine wind” protected Japan from invasion. The term was later used in relation to suicide attacks, but I think tokkou is the word that’s more commonly associated with the WW2 suicide attacks in Japanese and kamikaze has kept its original definition.
It doesn’t have a title but it goes like “Click. Click. Click. Click. Click. Click. Click. Click. Click.”
It’s my ceiling fan. I recommend it if you’re hot.
Even if you believe in many worlds that are created by quantum events, you don’t have to think that those events are influenced by or have anything to do with free will
I love Conservapedia. I highly recommend checking out the pages on “greatest conservative movies” and “worst liberal movies”.
You might have to use the web archive though, because the actual site is down like 75% of the time.
Regardless of what this case is about, I think it’s wrong to offer plea deals that negotiate the sentence below the death penalty.
Even if I’m 100% innocent, I’m gonna take the plea deal instead of risking my life in court.
If there are crimes so serious that they warrant the death penalty, there should be a trial. And if we’re okay with letting this person live, why did we consider taking their life in the first place? It’s a very coercive way to do “justice”. Admit to the crime or else we might kill you.
