Had to laugh at this because I am kind of the same way with some shows. I can understand if people don't love the show as much as me, but I hate it when they don't give any good reasons why they don't like and just say something like, "It's stupid." Maybe the real deal breaker for me isn't so much that they don't like the shows I do, but that they won't nitpick and discuses shows on a deep level like a real otaku! I mean the only thing better then a perfect anime, is an anime with one tiny flaw that you can spend all night complaining about on the forums!

I liked Revolutionary Girl Utena! Can I crash on your couch for a week?
The only fault I've found with RightStuf's Revolutionary Girl Utena sets is that the box for my copy of the first set was slightly deformed, so it doesn't stand up straight, and the second had the wrong arc titles on the packaging and DVD menus. The third set seems immaculate and the faults in the others are unimportant. I'm really pleased that they released it and thus allowed me to satisfy a curiosity that had been growing for years.

But... aren't the last three minutes of the song just repeating "We still living, living in the nineties/eighties! We still fight, fighting in the nineties/eighties!"? At least, that's what I've heard from a friend who tried to do the same.

Isn't Bakuman horribly sexist?
I remember some HUGE stink being raised about supposed sexism in it on some other forum.

Utena is 20-something episodes of good ideas stretched way too far. I'm enjoying it but it is way, way too long and would be a lot more interesting if it trimmed like 15 episodes worth of fat off.
As it is, I am glad I'm finally getting around to one of anime's classics I hadn't seen before, because it's got plenty to like and I certainly don't feel like it was a waste of time, but I don't think I'll ever watch it again.

Unimpressive? UNIMPRESSIVE?!
The Bakuman dub is one of the best dubs released in 2011!! And EASILY one of the best by NYAV in a long time!!
Maybe Kevin T Collins sounds a BIT too old for his part, but Michael Sinterniklaas sounds perfect. Not to mention that the acting actually sounds very natural and not forced or wooden.
Lemme guess..... You're one of those people who thinks that the Durarara!! dub is nothing short of excellent and that Darrel Guilbeau sounded "perfectly fine" in his role, aren't you?
Pssshh..... Figures.

|I can understand your brother's opinion. Utena is a journey and requires a lot of emotional investment to get the most out of it. It also helps if you watched it as an angsty teen who could relate and learn from the characters

Getting Ikuhara to open up about anything meaningful in person is harder than opening the Doors to Eternity.
Luckily, that's what the booklets are for. The extensive print interviews with Ikuhara, not to mention the rest of the creative staff, are CHOCK FULLA stuff about everything everyone ever discussed concerning the show. Gender roles, independence, patriarchal institutions...it's all discussed in great detail in these books and confirms that everything the fans have ever read into the show were discussed in great detail by the creative staff after all. Don't look at the DVD extras or audio commentaries for answers, because all Ikuhara does is troll. Read the booklets.
In my opinion, Nozomi has set a standard for an anime release. Heck, not just anime--Criterion could probably take a few notes here as well. One of the biggest problems with anime is that when a show is labelled a "classic", these companies never do much to show us WHY it's important. The Utena release shows us WHY this show is important and why it should at the very least be respected on some level.

I've basically avoided that by treating each box as an entirely different season. I watch one, a few different shows in-between, then the next one. It works wonders that way.

So, I just finished Utena yesterday for my first time, and my final verdict? I LOVE IT!
I'm so glad I bought Nozomi's releases for the series (I pre-ordered each of them to get the ring). Not only are they gorgeous (and one of my favorite releases sitting on my shelf), but the series is definitely in my top faves.
Sadly, my viewing of the final two episodes were slightly ruined - the first half of each episode had issues with the disc where the audio kept pausing and cutting out every other second. I'm going to ask for a replacement disc from RS, and then re-watch those two episodes.
I have yet to see the movie, but I want to watch it soon.

That really bugs me sometimes, especially the "anime legends" line or whatever it's called that Bandai puts out. Some of the WORST packaging.

To be honest, I think it's best to watch the TV series before the movie, and not just because the TV series came first. Both versions have different levels of strange surrealism, whereas the TV series is like gently wading into the waters while the movie is like a hard shove into the deep end. If anything, the TV series actually prepares new fans for the movie. Also, for anyone who thinks the TV series's ending is too bittersweet for their tastes, the movie's ending is more like a therapeautic catharsis as a counterweight, not to mention we get to see Utena and Anthy's relationship as it wasn't (at least not on the surface) in the TV series!
Also, for anyone who felt the TV series dub was intolerable--which I wouldn't disagree with--I assure you the movie's dub is a vast improvement. It had to do with a handful of factors, such as there being a different ADR director, Ikuhara-san supervising the dubbing of some key scenes, and all the weaker voices are either absent or only have a small number of lines. It's still a listenable dub that's aged well enough, so don't be afraid to give it a try if you're inclined. And despite the TV dub's notoriety, I'm glad Nozomi still included all the dub actor interviews from the Central Park Media set, since they all take place in the gorgeous locales of Central Park (it's worth watching the interviews for that alone) and the dub actress for Wakaba sings a rather nice tribute song for her character.

I dunno about any big controversies, but it's understandable that people would think so. Without going very deep into each character, we've got:
--Main character #1 (male): Protagonist who thinks critically about his life and works for his dreams.
--Main character #1's girlfriend (female): Side-character who does her best on her own, but is still the "ideal" female supporter for her boyfriend.
--Main character #2 (male): Protagonist who is really smart and works for his dreams.
--Main character #2's girlfriend (female): Side-character who is/can be extremely pushy and annoying, but is completely supportive of her boyfriend's dreams. Though she sometimes comes off as a character whose only purpose is to cause drama...
--Every married female adult in the series: Dedicated completely to husband or household.
They remind me of the whole Light <--> Misa relationship from Death Note, which flashes the "girl exists for the sake of guy" lightbulb in our heads. It sounds extremely sexist, but the other side of the issue is that it's "normal" for most of Japanese society to be like this, even now, when the foundations of the social rules are being challenged by new generations. Considering this series (as well as Death Note) is a little more realistic (excluding occasional character expressions and habits), I find their gender roles to make sense. I mean, if none of the characters are willing to challenge their gender roles (they are actually taking advantage of them, if you ask me), then let them be.
[Oh, hey. I made it into the article! Wasn't expecting that~ =D]

This game is nothing more than a re-packaged Modern Warfare 3 with a Halo feel. Its online play sucks. Way too complicated just set up one class. Instead of improving Black Ops, they bred Halo and Black Ops and the outcome is Black Ops 2. The game itself is ok, but will stick to the first Black Ops for online play. They really missed the mark on this game.

I don't know if I'd call them "liberal" neighborhoods, but some parts of downtown Norfolk that have been gentrified are now full of yuppies.

Hood River County voters gave Measure 29 even higher scores than the rest of the state Tuesday.
The county's unofficial results show 2,108 yes votes to 1,369 no in Hood River County, or a 59.58 to 40.41 percent margin, according to Lee Shissler, county elections coordinator. The near 60-40 split in Hood River County compares to the 55 percent yes vote statewide.
Hood River County turnout was 32.4 percent. Shissler said his office is still processing "a dozen or so ballots" that could still be challenged because of unclear signatures. Turnout was running at around 22 percent a week ago in Hood River County.
"We had quite a few in the ballot drop. There were some last minute returns," Shissler said.
Measure 29 is the statewide ballot question regarding refinancing the Public Employee Retirement System (PERS). Measure 29 will amend the Oregon Constitution to authorize the State of Oregon to sell general obligation bonds to finance the pension liabilities of the state at a lower cost to the state and to pay costs of issuing and incurring indebtedness. The measure authorizes the Legislative Assembly to enact implementing legislation. The measure limits the amount of indebtedness outstanding at any time to one percent of the real market value of property in the state.

Lawnmower torches Arbor Vitae on Portland Drive
The riding lawn mower driven by Norma Cannon overheated and made contact with dry arbor vitae owned by Lee and Norma Curtis, sending more than a dozen of the tightly-packed trees up in flames. The mower, visible at far right, was totaled. No one was injured; neighbors first kept the fire at bay with garden hoses and Westside and Hood River Fire Departments responded and doused the fire before it reached any structures. Westside Fire chief Jim Trammell, in blue shirt, directs firefighters. The video was taken by Capt. Dave Smith of Hood River Fire Department. Enlarge

Drags u Down-CHRISTY&kallen
Very good song. can easily hear this on the radio.
Very nice collab, nice vocals. Very catchy. Nice and crisp production. Can see why it got the no 1 slot :-)
Yeah, Christy has put some lovely vocals on this, I like both versions but I think the female vox on the verse from Sis A is a perfect contrast to your chorus. Catchy as you like, great work Keith and Christy. Thumbs, Gibbo
a very enjoyable song to listen to with a nice guitar sound the vocals are very good and a nice hook to the chorus this my style of pop music
Drums guitars and vocals make this really enjoyable to listen to, nice solo.
Two of my favorites together. The guitar really adds to this track... Gives it some grit. I love Alison's vocals and they really shine here. Great solo Keith... Double dose... nice touch..
The compression and drums are perfect... Just saving ya from an OAKWOOD crit. ;)
Love it guys
Nicely put together guys! Kudos for an awesome collab :-))
Really great song form Christy and Keith, great vocals, great lyrics, love the guitars Keith, and the drumming sounds so great (plus subtle bass) I love it!
How is Christ.....errrr Christy btw :-p. Nice collab goin' on here. Cool popster track. Rated
Ha ha, I love it when ya break the wasps out! Man, those guitars do sound great, almost as much a pleasure as those vocals. This works! On to your solo take on it....
Jeez, love those twin lead guitar sounds, Keith; excellent backing track and Alison's vocal puts the icing on. Good lyrics too, Alison with a sad nostalgic feel. Great work, guys; well done.
good tack nice vocals very enjoyable...good stuff
Both versions are very good as you can't bring a really good song down and w Alison's vocal, a new dimension is added.
They say that fiction...is the truth, inside the lie
Here is my take on some musicized fiction...
More music at : www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00SJQI95A/ref=dm_ws_sp_ps_dp
Well... Ive been plonking away on me old guitar it seems, for the last ten thousand years...just to amuse meself more than anything else...written/recorded many hundreds of tunes in various states of quality...from recordings made on shiny magnetic tape stuff, powered by magic elastic band thingys...yup...I have the technology of a wind up clockwork toy!
This is the only place I can be honest...and...maybe get away with it! ... My mission: To complete an album called: "Songs The 70's Missed" Ha!
A Wise Saying: Those who live by the sword...get shot by those..who dont.
My Saying: If we leave no mark...then we never lived...For whatever its worth...Here is my mark...

Empire State BuildingAt the center of the iconic NYC skyline sits the Empire State Building.

5th Avenue Holiday Window DisplaysShopping in NYC during the holidays can be a nightmare due to the tourist-packed streets. But there is definitely a redeeming quality to making the trek into the crowds: holiday window displays! Every year in mid-November, the biggest department stores in New York City create one-of-a-kind presentations of holiday-cheer in their exterior windows, usually with an original theme or throw-back to years past. (Shown here: one of Macy's Herald Square 2014 holiday window displays). 960 1280
Sledding in the CityIf weather trends stay on course for New York City, you'll want to prepare yourself for some major snow this holiday season.

Dyker Heights Holiday LightsFor a look at what happens in the boroughs during the holidays, take a trip to Dyker Heights in Brooklyn and tour their annual holiday decorations.

McDonald's Thanksgiving ParadeMake it a long weekend in Chicago, while checking out "Chicago's Grand Holiday Tradition," now in its 80th year. You just may see Teddy Turkey strut his stuff; he's been the parade mascot since 2009. 960 1280

A hearing will be held on January 30 on motions to dismiss the suit brought by DC Comics against a maker of replica Batmobiles, according to Bloomberg. The case that DC brought is now proceeding, in the wake of a ruling that the Batmobile can be copyrighted (see "Batmobile Can Be Copyrighted"). Some items, including that Gotham Garage made copies of the 1966 Batman TV Batmobile, were stipulated for the purposes of the motion to dismiss only.

A quick bio: at a target with high gpa, doing a bb soph program this summer, previous internships under my belt
So I really don't know how to find where my true career interests lie. It seems like "finance" is the popular route and where I can see myself doing well in, but to be honest, I don't find it that fascinating at all. Am I screwed in the business world? I ask this because I'm also not interested in law, medicine, engineering... do I have a problem? Is it too early to ask myself what the fuck I really want to do after graduation?
How did you guys end up finding out what you truly love to do and how long did it really take you guys to realize this?

A quick bio: at a target with high gpa, doing a bb soph program this summer, previous internships under my belt
So I really don't know how to find where my true career interests lie. It seems like "finance" is the popular route and where I can see myself doing well in, but to be honest, I don't find it that fascinating at all. Am I screwed in the business world? I ask this because I'm also not interested in law, medicine, engineering... do I have a problem? Is it too early to ask myself what the fuck I really want to do after graduation?
How did you guys end up finding out what you truly love to do and how long did it really take you guys to realize this?
The real world is about learning to compromise between what you WANT to do, and what you NEED to do. And if both are one and the same, consider yourself the luckiest person in the world.
And oftentimes you discover what you want to do when you simply get on with what you need to do.
What you want, what you love, etc. isn't some intellectual, cerebral, or abstract thing where you can just come up with "it" in a vacuum or out of thin air. It comes from experience. You don't know what you will love until you have some experience with it.
Practically speaking, it's trial and error. In your case, find a job that you don't hate, maybe even like - and go from there. Only by DOING something (even if it's simply to pay the bills) will you discover what you really love.
If you know what you love already, that's great, and consider yourself lucky.
If you don't know what you want yet, then don't get too caught up trying to figure that out. For example, you may not hate finance, but you don't really find it fascinating. Suppose you get a job in finance. Take it. You still may not love it, but maybe by doing it, you end up working with a client or deal in an industry that you never knew about or that you never knew you would ever like -- and something you never would've even discovered had you simply just said "what the hell, I'll take this finance job and see where it takes me."
And if you still don't know what you want or love, then don't let that stop you from working a job to pay the bills. There are plenty of people - even very successful people -- whose real passions are outside of their day job, and they have a perfectly happy life - whether that is your spouse and kids, or your car collection, a hobby farm, a side business, or whatever.
Don't believe the bullshit that it's necessary to have a full-time career that you LOVE. If you are in a position to have a career doing what you love, consider it a blessing, and not a necessity for being happy. Of course, you shouldn't take a job that brings you misery, but so long as the job is "okay", bearable, or something you moderately like (but not love), and it pays the bills - that's great! But don't let anyone tell you that you can't be happy if your day job isn't what you love.

I'd say that most of the world still doesn't know what they love doing. I'm still trying to figure it out myself. The best advice I've received is to not be afraid to get off of "The Track" and get your hands dirty if something strikes your fancy.
wow, makes me feel old when someone born in the 90's is asking for a career advice. damn this time thing is moving fast.
if you REALLY dont want it then stop pursing it. but we all know you are gonna go after it anyway because its "cool" and pays "cool."

If you have a different career in mind go for it.
A bit about myself if it might help, if not you can disregard it-
I started off in engineering, really enjoyed learning about it and enjoyed it in college but once I started working I hated it. Trading stocks and investing has been a hobby of mine so I decided to make a career out of it and I love it and will probably continue working here until I retire or until I make enough money (still not sure how much that is yet). Then I want to open up my own microbrewery while continuing to invest on the side.
So do what interests you, but a lot of times the stuff you learn in class is nothing like what you'll actually be doing once you start working in the field.

I want to get paid for doing nothing...
having read a lot of your posts, I know this to be incorrect.
Nice try though.
Your dream job is to build a team/help other people make the most of themselves as a team. We have something in common. Not a teacher, more of a leadbyexample person.

I was part kidding, but getting money for nothing is the ideal because then you have the freedom to do what you want, like charity work or something.
Experiment while there's still time. I am a sophomore as well.
Do some of your own investing / trading, read books on the different areas of finance, talk to people you know who may hold jobs.
Get a feel for how you fit into different areas, there's a lot you can do in "finance" so don't just label the whole field as boring. Most of all, keep the doors open like these guys said, you never know what might come up or what you're gonna be doing in 10, 20 years.
