| 00:04:41 [nathanbp] | yay volume 8 of Sidonia showed up |
|---|---|
| 00:04:54 [Cassian] | Yay |
| 00:05:13 [Cassian] | The B&N that stocks a lot of manga also had it in on time today |
| 00:05:21 [nathanbp] | nice |
| 00:06:31 [nathanbp] | hmm, tokyo tosho seems to be down |
| 00:06:38 [nathanbp] | how will I find bad first eps to watch? >_> |
| 00:08:24 [Cassian] | I think the only thing today was black Bullet and everyone who watched it said it was a mess <_< |
| 00:08:34 [Cassian] | Oh and Mahou Shoujo Taisen which is zzzzz |
| 00:09:18 [nathanbp] | is that the gainax local idol one? |
| 00:09:37 [nathanbp] | * nathanbp reads Black Bullet description |
| 00:09:46 [nathanbp] | that sounds like a show... |
| 00:10:56 [nathanbp] | more importantly, the last ep of Saki is out >_> |
| 00:15:05 [Cassian] | It's Gainax but not that one. The local idol one hasn't aired yet |
| 00:15:20 [Cassian] | Apparently this one is a short |
| 00:46:56 [nathanbp] | ah |
| 00:47:02 [nathanbp] | I think I'll pass on that too... |
| 00:47:09 [Cassian] | Good idea |
| 02:09:29 [nathanbp] | So after spending 13 eps on one match, no announcement for more Saki... |
| 02:09:33 [nathanbp] | and still 2 matches left... |
| 02:09:40 [Cassian] | Jeez.... |
| 02:09:50 [nathanbp] | Also I feel bad for the fansubbers, 6 different ending songs in only 13 eps |
| 02:12:12 [Cassian] | Ugh |
| 02:12:32 [nathanbp] | Now time for likely to be terrible first episodes, starting with Captain Earth as least likely to be terrible >_> |
| 02:20:07 [Cassian] | I meant to ask, was that other series Sanderson wrote between his massive series The Way of Kings? |
| 02:39:13 [nathanbp] | It's a hard call, but I think my favorite part of Captain Earth is the AEO approaching Earth at 50 meters per second (not actually very fast) |
| 02:40:02 [nathanbp] | The Way of Kings is the first book in his massive series (series title is The Stormlight Archive) |
| 02:40:21 [Cassian] | Oh Jesus DX |
| 02:40:47 [Cassian] | Lol, I didn't realize that wasn't that fast because technobabble everywhere |
| 02:43:31 [nathanbp] | I guess since they don't appear that far away it's not that unreasonable, but for example, Apollo 10 returned from the moon at 11.08 kilometers per second |
| 02:43:54 [nathanbp] | and 50 m/s is only 111 mph |
| 02:44:00 [nathanbp] | (thanks Google) |
| 02:44:02 [Cassian] | Ahhh |
| 02:44:51 [nathanbp] | My other favorite parts were launching a manned spacecraft to intercept an AEO |
| 02:45:10 [nathanbp] | And the complete lack of any approvals needed for that whole launch and combine process |
| 02:45:35 [nathanbp] | plus the triple combination because clearly that couldn't have been done in one step |
| 02:45:55 [Cassian] | Lol |
| 02:47:30 [nathanbp] | I was impressed that they had rockets on the parts to accelerate them to match speed before combining though |
| 02:48:39 [nathanbp] | sorry, I'm done now >_> |
| 02:48:49 [nathanbp] | Were you trying to figure something out about Sanderson's books? |
| 02:49:23 [Cassian] | Nah, it's cool |
| 02:49:41 [Cassian] | I just wasn't sure if that was his neverending series or not |
| 02:50:12 [nathanbp] | yeah, that's it |
| 02:50:19 [nathanbp] | You planning to continue watching Captain Earth? |
| 02:50:24 [Cassian] | Yeah |
| 02:50:38 [Cassian] | The other robot shows look much worse |
| 02:50:55 [Cassian] | And I generally like the staff working on it |
| 02:52:06 [nathanbp] | hmm, I'll probably give it another ep at least I guess |
| 02:54:00 [nathanbp] | If you're looking for a completed 10000 page fantasy epic to read I can almost recommend The Malazan Book of the Fallen series |
| 02:55:11 [nathanbp] | I found it fairly hard to get into the first couple books though and still pretty hard to follow after that as the author jumps around a fair bit and leaves you to figure things out |
| 02:55:57 [Cassian] | Omfg, ten books long |
| 02:57:05 [nathanbp] | * nathanbp marks those as read on Goodreads |
| 02:57:23 [nathanbp] | not only 10 books long but 10 1000 page books long >_> |
| 02:57:57 [Cassian] | Jesus |
| 03:00:20 [nathanbp] | Yeah, it is quite a series... |
| 03:00:37 [Cassian] | There's supplemental novels too... |
| 03:01:03 [nathanbp] | Wow, Goodreads recommended Spice&Wolf to me and I don't think I've added any manga or light novels >_> |
| 03:01:09 [Cassian] | Lol |
| 03:06:27 [nathanbp] | and now it's recommending haruhi |
| 03:06:40 [Cassian] | Lolol |
| 03:09:39 [nathanbp] | wtf, how many dragon series has Margaret Weis written!? >_> |
| 03:09:55 [Cassian] | Too many |
| 03:10:50 [nathanbp] | Guess I might as well add Book Girl to goodreads now too |
| 03:14:04 [nathanbp] | Have you read anything by Cathrine Valente? |
| 03:15:27 [Cassian] | Nope. I think I've heard of a few of her books |
| 03:18:35 [nathanbp] | She's written some very good but also very bizarre books |
| 03:19:38 [nathanbp] | ok, I need to stop updating goodreads now >_> |
| 03:21:30 [Cassian] | Anything you'd recommend from her? |
| 03:32:26 [Cassian] | Yay, actually got streetpasses today |
| 03:46:43 [nathanbp] | sorry, was watching Dragonar >_>;; I think I'll pass on that.... |
| 03:47:57 [nathanbp] | I liked The Orphan's Tales the best of Valente's books (they're somewhat in the style of Arabian Nights but not nearly as long) |
| 03:48:16 [Cassian] | Oh god, why did you watch that |
| 03:48:40 [nathanbp] | Individual titles are "In the Night Garden" and "In the Cities of Coin and Spice" |
| 03:48:55 [Cassian] | Ah, cool. I'll add them to the list |
| 03:49:55 [Cassian] | About 500 pages each, not bad |
| 03:50:26 [nathanbp] | Yeah, they are reasonably sized |
| 03:50:58 [nathanbp] | re: Dragonar, I blame FFF for subbing it >_> |
| 03:51:06 [Cassian] | Nathan..... |
| 03:52:17 [nathanbp] | I'm still streetpassing my coworker almost every day >_> |
| 03:52:26 [Cassian] | Lol |
| 03:52:31 [nathanbp] | need to look up a guide to see how to get the hats I'm missing from Find Mii |
| 03:52:49 [Cassian] | God damn you library, only other copy is in another library |
| 03:53:08 [Cassian] | Find Mii 2? |
| 03:53:54 [Cassian] | For Secret Quest http://www.gamefaqs.com/3ds/625899-streetpass-mii-plaza/faqs/67495 |
| 03:53:54 [Sacchi] | GameFAQs: StreetPass Mii Plaza (3DS) Find Mii II Secret Quest Map by The Mystical One |
| 03:54:10 [Cassian] | Regular Find Mii 2 http://www.gamefaqs.com/3ds/625899-streetpass-mii-plaza/faqs/67494 |
| 03:54:10 [Sacchi] | GameFAQs: StreetPass Mii Plaza (3DS) Find Mii II Map by The Mystical One |
| 03:57:08 [nathanbp] | Thanks. Guess I need to go through and check things off |
| 03:58:18 [Cassian] | No prob |
| 03:58:45 [nathanbp] | does Find Mii 2 only open if you have everything from Find Mii 1? |
| 03:59:43 [Cassian] | Oh, he wrote another book in the setting of Elantris... |
| 04:03:28 [nathanbp] | You can actually only barely tell it's in the same setting |
| 04:03:42 [nathanbp] | it's fairly good though (and it's really a novella, pretty short) |
| 04:03:42 [Cassian] | Oh, that's good |
| 04:04:09 [Cassian] | I can see why he'll never finish The Way of Kings. All these other series' he's working on... |
| 04:04:20 [nathanbp] | He writes really fast |
| 04:04:26 [nathanbp] | like 2-3 books/year |
| 04:04:27 [Cassian] | Ahhh |
| 04:04:31 [Cassian] | Jesus |
| 04:04:54 [nathanbp] | Also, except for his YA books, every one of his books is actually in the same universe |
| 04:05:00 [nathanbp] | called Cosmere |
| 04:05:04 [Cassian] | Oh |
| 04:05:30 [nathanbp] | Which I think is kinda dumb, actually >_> |
| 04:05:38 [Cassian] | Yeah |
| 04:06:21 [nathanbp] | Or at least to the extent he's done it so far, which is just little references that you don't get because who can remember every small detail from all his previous books... |
| 04:06:26 [Cassian] | One copy of Elantris in the system, checked out. Damn it |
| 04:06:30 [Cassian] | Oh god |
| 04:06:51 [nathanbp] | And because all of his characters are unmemorable anyways... >_> |
| 04:07:46 [Cassian] | Lol.... |
| 04:08:19 [nathanbp] | Have you read Ready Player One? |
| 04:08:46 [Cassian] | I haven't |
| 04:10:36 [nathanbp] | it's (intentionally and called out within the book) full of references to 80s video games, movies, and a little bit of giant robot anime |
| 04:10:48 [Cassian] | Ohhh |
| 04:10:53 [Cassian] | Cool |
| 04:11:07 [nathanbp] | Most of which I did not get... |
| 04:11:15 [Cassian] | D: |
| 04:14:36 [nathanbp] | it's neat, and the story is good although not amazing |
| 04:14:48 [Cassian] | Boo |
| 04:15:10 [Cassian] | All the books I want are in other libraries :( |
| 04:15:29 [nathanbp] | Can't you reserve them? |
| 04:15:45 [nathanbp] | Or are you looking for something to pick up tomorrow? |
| 04:15:46 [Cassian] | I can, but I won't get them this week though D: |
| 04:15:49 [Cassian] | I was |
| 04:17:48 [nathanbp] | * nathanbp considers things that are likely to be in at a library |
| 04:18:26 [Cassian] | Or I could not be lazy and go to the other local library tomrrow <_<; |
| 04:19:09 [nathanbp] | how about A Wizard of Earthsea, which you have marked as to-read on goodreads? >_> |
| 04:19:16 [nathanbp] | That's an option too... |
| 04:20:16 [Cassian] | Checked out D: |
| 04:20:24 [Cassian] | Only one copy |
| 04:22:04 [nathanbp] | Ringworld? Or The Mote in God's Eye? |
| 04:23:27 [Cassian] | Ringworld is in, surprisingly |
| 04:23:43 [nathanbp] | It's also short :D |
| 04:23:56 [Cassian] | Yay :D |
| 04:24:08 [nathanbp] | And if you're lucky they have the original edition where the Earth turns the wrong way >_> |
| 04:24:21 [Cassian] | Omg, that happened? |
| 04:25:23 [nathanbp] | It's a very minor part at the start where some things related to time zones are mentioned |
| 04:25:31 [Cassian] | Ohh |
| 04:25:56 [nathanbp] | and it was backwards in the first edition |

| 04:27:04 [Cassian] | Apparently the next Monogatari series is supposed to air this season? |
| 04:27:06 [Puyopuyo] | Helo |
| 04:27:07 [Cassian] | Hi Sam |
| 04:27:11 [Puyopuyo] | Hello. |
| 04:27:12 [Puyopuyo] | What's new? |
| 04:27:18 [Cassian] | Not much |
| 04:27:47 [nathanbp] | I saw that, but I'm not sure I believe it. I thought there was a Monagatari April Fools joke, so... |
| 04:28:55 [nathanbp] | fansubdb says it's a 5 episode TV special starting May 31 |
| 04:29:15 [Cassian] | Ohhh |
| 04:29:59 [nathanbp] | airing weekly, not all at once |
| 04:30:41 [Cassian] | +Alpha, real original naming scheme right there <_< |
| 04:31:26 [nathanbp] | is that actually the official title? |
| 04:31:32 [Cassian] | Yes |
| 04:31:39 [nathanbp] | .... |
| 04:31:57 [nathanbp] | lol, Kizumonogatari is tagged "development hell" on anidb |
| 04:32:12 [Cassian] | Lol |
| 04:40:23 [Cassian] | How's everything going, Sam? |
| 04:43:57 [Puyopuyo] | Tired. |
