Let's not project Pedosus onto all pegasi.

So far I like it. Lt. Col. DIO really does seem like a nice guy and doesn't yell much. The characters seem to be more grounded than other animes, hell most of them seem pretty normal and mostly concerned with getting by in a post-war society which is pretty close to slice of life. I think the show has been a nice refresh after AoT's mix of melodrama and action. I'll see how it goes and try to watch the OVA after episode 4. And speaking of DIO...

I know! This guy is supposed to be nice, but you just expect something like this: instead of him being nice to his dead friend's.... whatever Violet was to him.

If only calling it what it is was a fix. My understanding is that rubber bullets are designed to be shot at the ground and bounced towards crowds to reduce the amount of force. If you shoot directly at people, as was the case over the 2020 summer in the US, you end up with a lot of disfigurement and some death. I guess it's a question of whether the police are doing it intentionally or just don't read the manual, and then another question if that makes a difference.

I thought crypto was supposed to be subtle?

Violet Evergarden episode 1. Pretty good, but I can't help but hear Hodgins as DIO and expect him to reject his humanity or ask some old lady what it means to live.

I'm attacking my(past)self.

Only against people I don't like.

MMO players and Stockholm Syndrome.

OH NO!!!!!!!!!!!!

@majestic Kill la Kill sure was a ride wasn't it? I remember watching it a few years ago and thinking that it was really good or borderline perv, and now I think it's both.

A nation....in space! Realistically genocide (including population control and cultural erasure) would be a very intensive process in terms of manpower and resources. You'd pretty much need a massive efficiency booster (like robots, automation, etc.) along with the active participation of the people not being targeted (yet) to pull it off. It's realistic in the sense as most sci-fi stuff can be, but similarly unlikely to happen.

https://www.brennancenter.org/our-work/analysis-opinion/anti-protest-laws-threaten-indigenous-and-climate-movements The push to clamp down on pipeline protests isn't new, but it is really troubling. A lot of people are going to end up in jail for protesting, regardless if it's peaceful or not. Climate news is almost always worse than expected, so I guess it's fitting that it also applies to legal issues. But I guess the real threats to free speech are social media bans, college Republicans not having sex, and schools teaching the history of segregation. Prison time can't compare to your tinder match thinking you're too obnoxious to date. There's a level of irony that people who spent decades saying everything was a slippery slope to the government seizing control of our lives want the government to seize control of our lives so they can post slurs on twitter.

If he didn't solve a rubik's cube only to break it, then the OVA monkey is a let down.

Do they encounter the bug on the plane in the OVA?

Is that really weird tho? Seems like a happy accident.

If JoJo isn't weird stuff then I don't know what is.

So I take it you've met Ebony Devil and Yellow Temperance? Do you understannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnndu?

This isn’t true, the English is also hilariously dramatic and over the top. Let's be honest, JoJo doesn't just jump the shark, it beats it up before an insane captain kills it. And that's why it's awesome.

They just need to say **** it and double down on the crazy. No one will care about some failed Republicans trying to rebrand, but people will pay attention to the Tiger King. US elections already are a joke so they may as well go all in. The Zodiac Killer doesn't do coups.

As James Weeks said, the US government is so corrupt it needs to be stripped down. And James Weeks put his money where his mouth was and did a strip tease. If only more Libertarians had his commitment.

Prequel, the original OVA drops in with no background and some helps make as much sense as you can out of a show like JoJo. Tag me in, I've been in a funk about games and really need something to take my mind off life right now.

There's a prequel OVA released a decade later, and Forever is in that OVA. He gets sliced in half by Silver Chariot instead of beaten to death by Star Platinum. @Bartimaeus No peeking Majestic!

Sweet Tooth. I have no idea what's going on but I think I like it.
