Like I said, I dropped it after Kaban appeared, so I really dunno what happens afterward but I assume it's more of the same (the discussions I've seen seem to confirm that) She literally does nothing. There was a microscopic tease that Serval was the same Serval as Season 1 who lost her memories, but literally nothing happens with it when Kaban shows up, her blandness almost seems like she's just given up on the world. It's just a complete insult to everything before it. Kaban also seems to have no attachment to Serval at all. Why the hell did they even connect it to season 1 at all? It always kinda tried to clumsily hint at something, but it anticlimaxes it every single time. The episode before the Kaban episode ends with a dramatic reveal that it's a grown up Kaban, and she saves the original party from a wild Friend (called Beast, which I assume becomes the final antagonist since it is more or less following the party around since the start) by throwing a paper airplane, and it's all pretty cool seeming. But then the next episode, all she does is sit in a lab with the two owls (who also lost all their fun character bits) and spouts some exposition for the plot that anyone could have already guessed. Then the "conflict" of the episode doesn't even really concern her at all, and the end is just her waving with dead eyes like she's probably a few bottles of whisky away from just staying in bed 'till she dies. None of the cool inventive Kaban that was in S1, or even the image of "the charismatic human that can control or befriend animals" that seemed to be an overarching theme for the second season. She was just some girl in a labcoat. If it were in a vacuum the show would have been brushed aside as a kinda airheaded kids show about animal girls but the fact that it makes so many callbacks to season 1, yet faceplants every single time it does, makes it seem almost mean spirited. Not to mention that the animation quality is almost worse than season 1's irodori brand animation, and the character models look much more awkward despite being more smoothed and clean. to summarize, it's the soul-soulless meme but pretty much true

If any of you are fans of seeing serious, like amazingly bad game-breaking bugs, check out the PlanetSide 2 Test Server, where the first iteration of the DX11 engine upgrade is up. There's... some issues.

To continue with the trend of shitting on KemoFure 2, its 12th episode officially beat out Yugioh Arc-V for "least liked episode of a show on niconico" Considering the effect both had of having awesome parts then slamming into the ground, I'm not super surprised, but damn. The amount of ratings for KemoFure 2 is waaay higher than Arc-V's as well.

Nobody here is watching seasonal stuff, but I'm gonna rank Winter 2019 anyway: Kemurikusa and Kotobuki are hard to choose between the two for AotS, but I think Kemurikusa edges Kotobuki out by a little margin. Both shows are 3DCG; coincidence??! Both of them started out simple and built up the world and intrigue, with Kemurikusa being weirder and Kotobuki being more conventional. I think Kemurikusa handled characters better (I pity the poor fools that dropped it because of Wakaba in the first three episodes) while Kotobuki's action was better. Of course you can make gripes about the art directions and CG in both. I could look past it all easily in Kemurikusa save for a few scenes (sadly at the last episode is where things kinda get messy) but Kotobuki gets a little weirder because of a switch between 2D and 3D that looks strange at times - but still perfectly functional. The planes are obviously CG but they make it look good and they use sounds and music well. And they don't have someone chattering during the entire goddamn dogfighting segments explaining everything which is a huge bonus for me since I'm tired of that shit in every single show Other than that, there were some other ones (from good to bad) -WataTen: Good but totally destroyed suspension of disbelief on last episode because the elementary school play wasn't a disaster. It's "that show that people watch solely to make reaction faces"-core for sure, but enjoyable if you like cutesy comedy -Endro: JRPG Hero Party story with a distinct brand of Namori's yuruyuri artstyle and everyone in it is a dummy. It was pretty funny, though no Milky Holmes. -Ueno-san: The premise is that Ueno is a brilliant inventor who wants to get with a neutron star-dense guy. The first six minutes of the first episode is her trying to get him to drink her urine. I think anyone will know if they like the show within those first six minutes. -Gotoubun no Hanayome: Pretty standard adaption, though there's QUALITY here and there it was fine. Probably not worth picking over the manga? Still enjoyable -Magical Spec-Ops Asuka: I kept watching, hoping it would be a trainwreck, but it was more like a train that never could leave the station because the wheels were made of bad art quality and fights and generally just everything. There were a few moments that were okay. Maybe one every two episodes. -KemoFure 2: I dropped it after Kaban's episode because it was clear that they were just unaware of what made the first season fun. Don't mean to be a tatsukifag but it was kinda jarring watching this and Kemurikusa in the same season. Wasn't fun at all. All in all this season was a surprise because I thought it would be garbage and it turned out to have two really strong shows and a bunch of good ones. 8.5/10

It's a fact that I lament every day of my life. Oh well, at least VR is kinda neat. -
In which we post the randomest shit we find on YouTube.

Sounds like high schooler Bob Page who didn't quite hit his stride yet -
I can't wait for the Master Chief PC Collection to get bought out on the Epic Games Store too
-
Okay well I don't really have a response for that so bravo
-
You have FIVE (5) seconds to explain why you aren't watching Kemurikusa right NOW
-
Heaven's Feel 2 was pretty lit, anyone else see it/going to see it in theatres?
-
Actually melee has the most kills from what I remember. Melee was something close to half and then it was the BR after it
-
Personally I'm looking forward to the Battle Rifle absorbing 99% of all kills in MP because lol keyboard and mouse aim
-
You know I think I agree, I've been kinda wanting to play a game like it again recently.
-
Still concerned it's going to somehow still require win10 but I will definitely get it if I can play it on a good OS

Still waiting for the MSBS production out here to happen. And for me to have a job so I could actually buy one. -
I was expecting most shows to be pretty bad this season but they've all mainly been fairly good. Kemurikusa, Endro, Kotobuki, WataTen, even Ueno are all great. The only one that's been a continuing disappointment is KemoFure 2, in the "I expected nothing and I'm still disappointed" kind of way. Magical Spec-Ops Asuka is bad too, but in a "I wonder how far this will go" kind of way.

Okay I definitely did NOT get that part. Though I am reminded of the first "convince the person they're wrong" thing with the cholo and how I wish during the conversation there was a "shoot the bastard" option. I chose the "talk it out" option because I wanted to hear why but after talking to him and botching the negotiation Jensen just sits there like a dumbass when things break down and he tries to run. Like, nothing changed positioningwise, so why wouldn't Jensen be able to try and take a shot after realizing that talking him down won't work? I suppose the true answer to this all is "just load your save and do it right"
-
Wait, what happens then? I feel like I may have gotten that and not realized it was something I could have influenced. Definitely saved helicopter girl though, she was a cutie.
-
It was obvious but I did it anyway because I was really just on autopilot through most of those missions I guess. I suspected it wouldn't really matter in the long run (like most things in this game heyooooooooo) I mean, I was gonna just abuse the fact that the boss is baffled by stairs and shoot him to death with a gun anyway, I just couldn't jump directly over his head to do it. You know while I'm on this tangent DXHR had so many "but I wouldn't have done that" situations in cutscenes. The EMP thing, everything involving that Chinese bitch who clearly was going to betray you at every single turn (chiefly, not just shooting her outright whenever she showed up), pretty much every single boss fight cutscene where Jensen just walks up to them instead of using his quantum tunneling armor piercing suppressed pistol to pop them in the head with the element of surprise or hell just fucking sneak around them like you already can do once the cutscene is over I mean, the anticlimax of being able to 1shot all the bosses in the first DX with the GEP Gun is still preferable to the boss fights DXHR had.

That was the thing that borked your implants like five levels later right? Yeah, I had forgot about it until now
-
I finished desu ex human resources Ending was shit, all the boss fights were dumb, why the fuck do the nano zombies literally make you unable to move if they touch you once, why did an EMP reset your implants when there is an implant IN THE GAME THAT SHIELDS YOU FROM ALL ELECTRIC INTERFERENCE AND EMPS REEEEEEEEEEEEE other than that the game was okay, pretty fun
