Ugh The "Is Europe more enlightened than the yanks" Thread
Fucking ridiculous
JIMMIES ARE A'RUSTLIN
Including mine.
Green Scar was really looking forward to that, such a shame he'll never play it

Sorry about your nan, Jed. List mine when I was 8 or 9, I think. Didn't realise she had a strong Irish accent until years later when somebody told me.

I stole his copy. That bastard.
I disagree with this profusely.
However, if it does genuinely feel like a loss, my thoughts are with you, Jedeye. BritGAF is here to make you laugh with silly anecdotes, should you need it.
Have you never watched anime or something? You on a gaming forum for crying out loud - Japanese things should not be a mystery to you!
I just can't watch anime without thinking "well this is total shit" - definite culture clash
Very rare that I find any anime I don't hate.
Prove me wrong, I'd love to find so.e decent anime

Sorry Tash, you'd been absent a few days so I wasn't sure if you we're still playing, and I've been in work all day! Done now.
Standard answer:
Have you tried Cowboy Bebop? (It's good)
Ghost in the Shell? (the movies. Series is fun but very anime)
Suairyu answer:
If you have any experience working full time for a salaried job: Hataraki Man
If you'd love to watch a crime drama that can stand toe-to-toe with the live-action stuff: Monster
I'll give them a go. You'd better be right though!

My gf got given two large cod fillets by a local independent fishmonger she interviewed for a piece she's doing.
Not sure I'm in the mood for fish.

It's good shit, although I have this annoying fascination with cutting off legs and watching people crawl towards me though.
Oh well.

Clearly SOMEONE never played Binary Domain
I got served fish and chips in the work canteen today. Fucking delicious.
Think I'll have fish finger butties when I get home, too.

Gundam Wing is quality but I think you need an inherent liking of anime to appreciate the mecha mecha stomp stomp.

Co-signed! Although I prefer Porco Rosso, for some reason. Maybe it's Michael Keaton's killer VO.
Mononoke is one of my favourite movies.
But
I don't think it's a movie that lends itself to rewatches.
It's not that rewatches reveal it to be bad, just that the film is all about discovery and a journey. Its impact is reduced by rewatches.
So I tend to avoid watching it. Watched it maybe four times since I was 15.
Two best Ghibli films are Whisper of the Heart and Only Yesterday. Both capture life so perfectly.

Hell yeah, it's in my top 10. But I disagree on the rewatch bit. It's one of the few films I make a habit of watching at least once a year. No more frequent than that as I don't want it to get stale.
Almost all of them are god-tier but PM remains my favorite possibly due to nostalgia. Soundtracks and voice acting are always superb.

I love Mononoke but my favourite memory of it is the part where Channel 4 showed some guy's head flying off at 9AM.

Hahaha! I've never seen a television broadcast of it but you would have thought they'd censor that.

They edited the four OVAs into a movie and played it all in one go at like 9pm one night.

I remember the days when my walkman would be a constant companion everywhere I went. I never truly believed those days would end.
I neverthought Sony would abandon and betray what originally made them great.

It seems to be a true statement.
But my reaction to it is not. Do people really care about putting their CDs in a PS4?

Got out of it by getting a Papa John's instead BOGOF plus a free bottle of coke. Cod tomorrow.
It damn amazing it could be my favorite soundtrack since Deus Ex, the Mistral boss vocal part reminds me of a Persona song. Actually that one feature I love the scaling music starts instrumental then turns into vocals last quater of the health bar
Also the sly Metal gear jokes
"oh shit not again"
what about VHS please tell me it plays VHS
The music in that fight was amazing and that little joke got a chuckle from me, especially when it was followed by the worst "kept you waiting" line ever.

No but really, you talking about the Quest for the Holy Relics? It's a Dungeons and Dragons play-by-post game. DnD is basically the granddaddy archetype of all Pen and Paper RPGs which really inspired the core mechanics of role-playing games in general. Without going into too much detail, we play characters of our choosing and design in a game world set up by the Dungeon Master. In the thread and we role-play our characters along with dice rolls that determine whether our characters are successful in their actions in solving the dungeon master's challenges.
