I've read all the (currently available) High School DxD LN volumes on Baka-Tsuki (several thousands of PDF pages) I've never noticed a single spelling mistake or error... or maybe a handful of them at best. So I'd say Baka-Tsuki is very good. Never heard or tried Yen Press... sorry.

You hear that @Catar? Now we can finally be in a club together. Just you and me buddy.... *ahem* Anyway, I do agree with you. The like system is very straight-forward and simplified. I don't really see the need for it to be changed. Whenever I want to express more gratitude I always just leave a comment and a like. Obviously this doesn't apply to non-upload threads/comments though.

As a kid I would sporadically watch Pokémon and Yu-Gi-Oh episodes on TV, but I really got into anime after having finally decided to watch Attack on Titan earlier this year. I've been watching anime every day since then and I'm loving it.

Attack on Titan (Shingeki no Kyojin) (Wit Studio)
Scyrous replied to † RazorDan's topic in Airing Anime
True, but the amount of episodes being doubled certainly would make a difference. Mainly because we're gonna have to wait so darn long. I'm fine with flashbacks as long as they serve a good purpose. Today's episode did a fantastic job for example. I personally don't care about potato girl a lot since she doesn't serve much of a purpose. So naturally, episode 2 was a bit boring for me. I get that it's needed to flesh out characters though. But i'd rather see this happen in a 2-cour season rather than 1-cour. -
Attack on Titan (Shingeki no Kyojin) (Wit Studio)
Scyrous replied to † RazorDan's topic in Airing Anime
I wouldn't have minded the flashbacks if it was going to be 2-cour. But since it's only one-cour, there's already not much room for overly long recaps and flashbacks. I'll admit that some of these flashbacks were quite good, but there's also a few that dragged on for too long (looking at you episode 2). And then there's episode 9 which was just 24 minutes worth of talking... I dunno, I'm not a big fan of it. Can't blame the production committee since they're actually doing a great job adapting the manga, but still. Another problem with season 2 being one-cour is going to be season 3 (atleast the first cour). From what I've been told, it's a lackluster arc with lots of political stuff. Not too much action. So how is that supposed to get people excited again? I'll be reading the manga once season 2 ends, but it does worry me. -
If it turns out to be shit I may just remaster the entire thing myself. Kinda depends on the DVDs though.

Attack on Titan (Shingeki no Kyojin) (Wit Studio)
Scyrous replied to † RazorDan's topic in Airing Anime
Couldn't agree more. A lot of people find the pacing to be much better than season 1's, but it's just too slow and lackluster for me. Especially given how some episodes spend 10 minutes on flashbacks. For an arc that's supposed to be one of the best in the entire manga, I'm not exactly impressed so far. We still have 3 episodes to go, but I'm kinda losing hope. -
Quite relaxing indeed! That was pretty good. Moby and @ThePJzer... you know how I said Carpenter Brut would release something late 2017? Well he finally released his cover of 'Flashdance - She's a Maniac' today! There's another full album coming later this year though. I've already pre-ordered it here. Unfortunately it's pretty much a duplicate of the Trilogy album. Only difference being is that he added Maniac + another new track called 5118.574... regardless, I bought it!

The amount of episodes for season 2 you mean? It's 12 in total. -
@ThePJzer Interesting stuff! Haven't heard of him but that's definitely the kind of music I would have enjoyed 2-3 years ago. My taste tends to change over the years hehe. And yeah I had the exact same reaction! It's an incredible song. This track just grabs you starting from 0:45 and never lets go. Just like Turbo Killer, it's one of his more famous and heavy tracks. Honestly I'd recommend checking out his (one and only) Trilogy album and listening to all 18 tracks. It's compiled of 3x6 EPs (666, what a surprise). Unfortunately there have been no other EP/albums since then (trilogy is from 2015). He did hint at something coming late 2017 though.

@ThePJzer That's my jam! Trust me my friend, I am all over this genre. It goes by the name of synthwave. Lazerhawk is a classic example. Carpenter Brut, along with Perturbator, create what is known as darksynth (which is typically a lot heavier and darker - it has a satanic edge). Other good artists are Dance with the Dead, Gunship, Dan Terminus, etc. Lots of 80s-inspired B-movie music as you said. This is arguably Carpenter Brut's most famous (and heaviest) tracks out there. Just listen to the first two minutes to hear what I mean.

Inuyashiki Manga By Gantz's Hiroya Oku Gets TV Anime Adaptation
Scyrous replied to Koby's topic in Anime News
I have high hopes for this. Shuuhei Yabuta is an incredible 3D director and I can't wait to see him make his debut as the director of an entire anime. The premise seems very interesting as well. -
Pretty good @ThePJzer ! Second video is unavailable for me somehow... Time for something completely different... One of my favorites from Carpenter Brut. Starts off with this perfect GTA-vibe, throws in the saxophone at 1:14, gets a bit more intense later on and then just breaks loose at 2:28 (signature Carpenter Brut style)... and goes back to the original GTA vibes from before.

I saw it as well last week! It was a marathon actually. Both vol 1 and 2 right after the other. I thought the story was okay-ish. For the first hour or so it didn't feel like there was any threat or objective, which I kind of disliked. And yeah, Thor 3 looks awesome. Small spoiler regarding the end-credits scenes of GotG Vol. 2:

What game have you spent the MOST time playing?
Scyrous replied to thisisatrial's topic in Gaming Realm
I'm nearing 4000 hours on my RuneScape account... jeez. What's even more shocking is that I made that account in April 2014, so atleast several hours a day for 2 years straight. I pretty much stopped playing about 6 months ago though. Binge-watching anime is more entertaining. -
Sorry for digging up an old topic, but has there been any news on these upcoming dubs? As stated in this screenshot, a dub for The Testament of Sister New Devil would be released ''in the coming weeks''. That was back in September last year. Correct me if I'm wrong, but almost half a year has passed without any update on the matter. Same goes for Kabaneri actually... so what gives?

software for converting itunes m4v into mp4's
Scyrous replied to billybob's topic in Feedback & Assistance
Have you tried XMedia Recode before? If done correctly it lets you mux the file instead of converting (re-encoding) it, so no quality is lost.
