01:00:32 [nathanbp]Hey
01:00:38 [Cassian]Hey
01:00:48 [nathanbp]no Gundam Build Fighters sub yet, guess I have to watch Toaru >_>
01:00:57 [Cassian]Ugh
01:01:20 [Cassian]Less Kal-El whining but still a lot of dumb
01:01:22 [nathanbp]so you're almost done with Smile? Get to the robot ep yet?
01:01:28 [Cassian]I did
01:01:41 [Cassian]I got up the Cinderella episode
01:02:08 [nathanbp]Did it trigger your Yes 5 Go Go PTSD?
01:02:12 [nathanbp]>_>
01:02:20 [Cassian]Yeah, I had to stop watching
01:19:37 [nathanbp]oh hey volume 1 of tonari no kabutsukun showed up
01:19:48 [Cassian]Oh
01:19:51 [nathanbp]too bad my reading backlog is even worse than my anime backlog >_>
01:20:01 [Cassian]Lol.
01:20:04 [Cassian]Same D:
02:35:52 [nathanbp]wow they sure get a lot of use out of these toys in suite (just watched the ep where they switch halves)
02:36:02 [Cassian]Yeah
02:36:15 [Cassian]I was surprised they did that
02:44:34 [nathanbp]me too
02:44:53 [nathanbp]so were you cheering while Kal-el was getting beaten up? >_>;
02:45:01 [Cassian]Yes
02:45:56 [Pipian-Work]-!- Pipian-Work has joined #Cochineal
02:45:56 [ChanServ]-!- ChanServ set mode +o on Pipian-Work
03:01:52 [nathanbp]Their plane design is still so stupid...
03:02:05 [Cassian]They really are
03:02:23 [nathanbp]also, kiss of death you think?
03:02:35 [Cassian]It's no wonder they're losing with the co-pilot has to fire a rifle for each shot >_>
03:02:44 [Cassian]Seems likely
03:03:12 [nathanbp]Yeah...
03:03:23 [nathanbp]also who designed the island like that? >_<
03:03:33 [nathanbp]with the town on surface open to bombing...
03:04:18 [Cassian]Seriously poor design choices every where
03:29:09 [nathanbp]Makes you wonder how they survived to this point...
03:37:42 [Cassian]Yeah
03:38:00 [Cassian]Build Fighters spin-off manga chapter links if you're interested http://pastebin.com/BmK0Va5Y
03:38:01 [Sacchi]GBFA links - Pastebin.com
03:41:03 [nathanbp]Thanks
03:41:11 [nathanbp]I'll add it to my reading backlog >_>
03:41:18 [Cassian]No prob
03:41:20 [Cassian]Oh god
03:41:55 [nathanbp]?
03:42:22 [Cassian]Trying to imagine how big your reading backlog is
03:42:35 [nathanbp]clearly we should tell Ed to license it >_>
03:43:03 [Cassian]LOL
03:43:37 [Cassian]Apparently Kamen Rider Spirits only had 5 people suggest it. In before another petition
03:45:15 [nathanbp]ugh, I keep getting more books out of the library too
03:45:36 [Cassian]I have this problem too...
03:46:02 [nathanbp]now I can't remember if I read this book or not...
03:46:09 [Cassian]Wow...
03:46:39 [nathanbp]I'm really terrible at updating goodreads
03:47:01 [Cassian]You should get better at that >_>;
03:47:25 [nathanbp]I mostly gave up
03:47:33 [Cassian]D:
03:50:37 [nathanbp]oh hey I put book #2 on my to-read shelve in good reads I guess I did read book #1
03:50:45 [Cassian]Lol
03:51:27 [nathanbp](where book #1 is Fireblood by Jeff Wheeler)
03:52:09 [nathanbp]although I can't say I recommend it very highly
03:52:52 [Cassian]I looked up the summary, it sounds pretty generic
03:53:23 [nathanbp]it is rather generic fantasy
03:55:37 [nathanbp]wow I can't remember the title of the second to last book I read
03:55:52 [Cassian]Opps
03:56:29 [nathanbp]ah there we go... (God's War by Kameron Hurley. also not one I'd recommend)
03:57:30 [Cassian]That also sounds pretty generic
03:58:13 [nathanbp]Its insect based magic/technology is at least unique
03:58:22 [Cassian]Ah
03:59:25 [nathanbp]the last book I read was Something More Than Night by Ian Tregillis
03:59:34 [nathanbp]which is less generic at least...
04:00:22 [Cassian]Uh, that's for sure
04:00:30 [nathanbp]I liked his Milkweed books better though (World War II historical fantasy/sci fi)
04:00:37 [Cassian]Ah
04:00:57 [nathanbp]those were amusing to read after Blackout/All Clear as they also take place mostly in London
04:01:27 [Cassian]Oh
04:03:50 [nathanbp]and now I'm going to skip my 2 library books to read The Judge of Ages and see how the heck that series is going to wrap (bizarre post singularity sci fi)
04:06:58 [Cassian]This sounds very huh
04:19:02 [Cassian]Is it as complicated as it sounds?
04:29:13 [nathanbp]Yes
04:29:32 [Cassian]Sounds fun
04:30:24 [nathanbp]yeah
04:30:45 [nathanbp]if you really want complicated check out The Quantum Thief by Hannu Rajaniemi
04:31:06 [nathanbp]after reading it twice I think I might understand some of what's going on
04:31:09 [Cassian]Oh boy that sounds like a doozy
04:31:35 [nathanbp]Actually I think I'd say I understand less after reading it the second time than I did the first time...
04:31:41 [nathanbp]and the sequel is worse
04:32:11 [Cassian]D:
