  • Only Two shows managed to keep me interested.

    Oshi no ko season 2 - At times I was on the edge of my seat.

    Dungeon People - Very nice CGDCT show with an accent on comedy.

    Also I was catching up with Apothecary Diaries but still got finale to watch.

    P.S Bye Bye Earth got OST released this week. The only redeeming quality of that show.
    Bye Bye, Earth - Vol. 1 - The Duel - (IMO best song)
    Bye Bye, Earth - Vol. 2

  • So Clay finally feels at home in the dungeon. I wonder if Clay will find her father in the final episode next week (Probably not)

    Also those black uniforms totally don't give off executioner kind of vibes.

  • I have rewatched the murder scene again. And I am totally lost on everything that happened.

    Some thoughts and observations

    a) the one who claims is the father is alive
    b) he is a different person than the murderer
    b2) totally forgot about the manipulator
    c) the one with DNA match (murder-suicide) is also totally different person.

    So Aqua convinced himself that the murderer & father is already dead. And feels free to pursue happiness.

    Akane want's to support her boyfriend(?) and would try to steer him off from revenge

    What is the Truth? What is the Lie? Does objective truth exists, or is it all just a believable fiction fabricated by the human mind?


    There are a lot of red herrings and I am all for it.

  • What have your favorite underrated anime of the 2020's been so far?
  • Ikuta no kita - underratted because it's avan-garde and my experience watching it was great. 6.39 vs my 9/10

    As I have watched a bit more avan-gerde films like "mad god" and "Tetsuo: the iron man" I would not grade it the same.

  • Clay finally starts to ask questions about her father. There are more mysteries than answers it's seems. So the predecessor developed a goblin substitute just so that they wouldn't need surrogate mothers.

  • This episode is a set up for something big. Aqua is going back to the site of his death(not 100% sure). Ruby got to fire up a composer for a banger that they will surely sing at the final.

    Aqua's revenge coming to an end without closure to him and just switching plot to Ruby really enhances the dissatisfaction in the viewer. I love it.

  • I don't think flashcards are working for me.
  • My goal is to read so not really.

  • I don't think flashcards are working for me.
  • I can't for some reason hold any routine other than brushing my teeth so I don't feel like it will work.

    I am doing kanji and vocab at the same time.

    I am still putting the hours but making no progress means that I need to change the method.

  • I don't think flashcards are working for me.
  • I was using jpdb.io and it is supposed to be smarter than anki(?).

    I think the whole concept of flash cards doesn't work for me. I can't memorize for the life of me. It just not how my brain works.

    And I can't seem to remember to create a mnemonic for every kanji.

  • I don't think flashcards are working for me.

    So for 2-3 years I have been using flash cards to get to 1000 kanji and then switch for full immersion and extrapolate meaning with some dictionary. I only know around 150 kanji.

    This method already worked for english and russian but without flash cards part. I learned first 1000 words + grammar in school by osmosis thorough textbooks.

    My routine is 30 min a day for two weeks and then 2 week break due to boredom or some other factor. It makes my backlog huge and discouraging and my retention seems terrible (60-70%)

    For the past 6 month I didn't make any new flashcards to remember. only reviews of old ones.

    Do y'all have some better method to get to 1000 kanji inefficiently? Because it seems efficient method doesn't work for me.

  • I loved this episode. We had more world building and couple of cool dressing up animations.

    And this one is especially cute @rikka@ani.social

  • What books do you consider must reads?
  • Discword series is really good. - very witty comedy with subtle commentary about real world

    I wouldn't say it's must read but I can't reccomend it highly enough: "Ascendance of a Bookworm" - an slow adventure about a girl struggling with an unknown disease in another world, and all she wants is to read books.

    you can also hang out in !chat@literature.cafe and tell about your experience.

  • I have watched "Mad God" and it was one of the best avan-garde films that I have watched and I am debating writting an essay/review as I had totally different intepretation of the film as the author intended(in my opinion).

  • Demon realm would be like labor outsourcing, colonization or exotic commodities trade?

    Like you can't really invade the "demon realm" as the "demon king" stands guard and tries to hire some help for fair compensation.

    Small very interesting tidbit is that there were huge incursions from / to "demon realm" but Belle and her predecessor defended the world from them. I really like this world building as it explains usual trope of "horde of demons attacking the earth" and at the same time "a hero storming the demon king".

    How to get a git clone --branch into an existing repository?

    So I want to build blender fork but it fails to build on Visual Studio 2022. There is already a patch and a open PR that fixes the issue.

    I have already git cloned the repository and I would want to only get the patch into my local repository. So I can build from that.
