SJW interns maybe?


This could potentially be it.

i still think its that christian group that did it tbh. i doubt SJW interns would go after all that yuri.

After finishing today's episode of Darling In The Franxx, I can say that this second cour of the show has been some of the worst episodes of anime that I have ever watched. There has been exactly one moment in the past six episodes that I found enjoyable, but everything else has been between below-average and irredeemably awful.

I honestly wish I had dropped this show at the halfway point instead of Beatless.

Eh, after researching a bit more into it and checking out their website/publications, I really doubt it's that group. Generally groups like these aren't really savvy enough about video games to even know what VNs are. They tend to seem to go after bigger, more mainstream targets like GTA games. Think about the kind of stuff the typical soccer mom would know about. They likely just monitor the news and saw stuff about Steam removing "porn games" and thought to claim credit for it.

As for who it might have actually been, rogue intern/employee acting on their own seems kind of likely. Either that or someone mass reported the titles somehow and a Valve employee decided to act on them, maybe not without really knowing their own content policy. Valve seems anything but organized to me.

I played a little bit.

Seems like there's a ton of menus, commands, resources, quests etc to keep track of.

What are the most important things?

It is recommended you only craft 4 guns a day to complete the daily quests, that way you don't drain your resources too fast (you use ammo and rations for missions, those are usually the bottleneck)

Early on when you start all the way to commander level 12 is pretty much tutorial missions and the game will explain what you can do with each menu and stuff as you go.

Crafting is based on "recipes" rather than the usual gacha bullshit of "buy or currency and sell us your soul" to get waifus, here's a cheat sheet that has the most common recipes to get certain types of guns (rarity not guaranteed, but it does list their timer to see on what gun you landed)

https://hermicide.com/sharex1/2018-05-09_03-07-34.png

430/430/430/230 seems to be the go to early on, i did that and got a few decent guns.

I haven't seen today's ep, but mind explaining how is this cour worse than beatless that looked awful from the start?

is it because of too much buildup but nothing has happened?

Besides the reunion scene in episode 15, I just haven't found anything in the past six episodes enjoyable. It's all been either boring, pointless, frustrating, or infuriating. I'm simply not having fun watching the show anymore. At all. Nothing is hooking me. Nothing is keeping me interested in the story. Nothing is making me give a damn about any of the characters besides Hiro and Zero Two, and even then, they've barely done anything of note outside of episode 14/15. The two characters that actually did have any decent development literally *episode 18 spoilers* had the reset button hit to cancel it all out.

Darling got off to a good start in the first cour, but this second cour has been so dull and boring, and what isn't mindlessly boring is instead actively annoying the crap out of me. At least Beatless had some enjoyable moments scattered throughout the mediocrity here and there. Darling has shown me so little in the past six episodes that I can't even convince myself of a real reason to keep watching it besides "you're so close to the end that you may as well".

Man, i honestly feel the opposite from this, sure it's not as action-y as it was during the first half, but i actually enjoy the whole self-found struggle the kids are going through, and all the shady shit going in the backgroung with APE and the nines.

But i can't blame if you if that wasn't what you were expecting from this.

Hmm, Vertical just licensed one of the Kinos Journey manga. The one by Shiniya Iruka, not the cover posted in the ANN article (which is a cover of the Gou version).
Ive got all of the current volumes in Japanese and I can say that its a great adaptatoon. The first 3 volumes covered the stories from the LNs first volume.

https://goo.gl/MgyUCh

Lol that link also has some details about Kino as a high school girl? Sounds... interesting

Oh, thats Gakuen Kino, a highschool spinoff series. I havent read it yet, but its supposed to be a series where Sigsawa goes crazy with the gun fanservice. And the characters comical traits are supposedly cranked way up.

So I had a lot of trouble getting to sleep, and eventually I just gave up trying to sleep and watched the newest episode of Hugtto Precure. *major spoilers below*

WHAT

biifopGKBo

THE FUCK

iFNQXClFWf

JUST

qElHaBFPDL

HAPPENED!?

PVEKnkWlsJ


So I was right about Lulu turning face, and I was also right about Lulu secretly being an android. What I wasn't right about was Lulu almost fucking dying to save Hana from a sneak attack. Then she gets taken back by the villains, and even worse... the next episode preview shows the 'modified' Lulu fighting against the Precure, and the phrase "Farewell, Lulu" is included in the next episode title. I swear to god, if they kill her off instead of befriending her, I'm going to be so pissed.

I can't remember the last time I felt this anxious waiting for a new episode of an anime to come. The next seven days are going to be painful.

so I learned this morning that stella no mahou has a little puzzle game thing on their anime's info site
http://www.dokidokivisual.com/magic_of_stella/star_liner_magicofstella_2016.php

and by "little puzzle game", I mean like 60+ levels, some of which are extremely galaxy brain difficult, and also really nice looking / adorable sprite work. I have no idea why this is just hiding in the minigame section of a random anime because it could probably sell as a standalone phone game lol. It also just recently got levels added a few days ago which is kinda crazy since the show aired a while ago. It's in japanese but all the tutorials are just images so you're fine to play it even if you can't read anything

someone pls play it I'm stuck on a level and need help

Agreed, I still see Lulu being befriended somehow, whether it's by Emiru convincing her or Hana and crew beating it into her. And yeah, that scene with Lulu getting totaled and taken away by Papple was absolutely brutal. I was shook by what happened even as I was making those gifs from my last post. Definitely not something I would have ever expected from a franchise whose primary purpose is to sell toys to kids.

Cardcaptor Sakura has always been like this though. And a lot of the original was spent wondering why Sakura sucks so much at using all her cards :P. I guess the appeal of it is in the overall feel of the series, which is just a feel good, excessively vanilla experience. There isn't even really a bad guy in the original, just that the cards are causing mischief and Sakura has to stop them, which is how the story begins and ends

Clear Card has been putting a bit more focus on the slice-of-life aspect though. I'm watching the dub so I'm a couple of episodes behind, but it definitely feels like there's been a lot more of the cute and relaxing scenes and less of the high-stakes stuff, even compared to the original series. I find it nice and refreshing since I like slice-of-life shows a lot, but I understand why others might want to see more tension and higher stakes in the series.
