@dean I miss those times, even like first month ChatGPT, it was just a fun thing where you went "oh my god look at what it can do! that's so rad!" or "holy shit, it can talk like my favorite videogame character!", but now it's enshittified and shoved everywhere like a magical solution

#AniMangaPictureChallenge @apc For the hats #AnimangaFoundIt I submit Firo Prochainezo, in one of the most engaging fight scenes in Baccano!

Watching him effortlessly dodge through Dallas's gang attacks while juggling his hat completely captured my interest in the show, and I definitely recommend it too

@mdmrn Oh my god, yes. It's even more annoying when you can't just switch it back, so you have to do a whole detour using alternative clients and such, just to watch a damn video on the original language. Does Google think we're too stupid to learn another language, or are they putting too much faith on their faulty AI dubbing model?

It's kinda hard to explain why the Monogatari Series is great, it's weird to conceptualize what a show carried by its writing can offer without watching it.

Light novel originals are always tough to visually translate and animate, but SHAFT did a great job making the conversations engaging with good sound design, tone-setting music and AMAZING art direction, with a layer of experimentalism more common in extremely conceptual animations.
