00:50:44 [nathanbp]hey
00:50:50 [nathanbp]10 hours of meetings -_-
01:44:49 [Cassian]hey
01:44:56 [Cassian]God damn.......
01:45:57 [nathanbp]yeah...
01:49:37 [nathanbp]I watched Nozaki-kun 2, it was really funny
01:49:41 [nathanbp]looking forward to more
01:51:01 [Cassian]Yay!!
01:51:14 [Cassian]Anything else you like so far
01:54:55 [nathanbp]Hanayamata >_>;
01:56:16 [nathanbp]The first ep of Barakamon was pretty amusing, need to get around to watching the second...
01:56:34 [nathanbp]how about you?
01:58:25 [Cassian]Just a few of the few minute shows like Strange+ and Gundam-san. I only stuck with Nozaki-kun in terms of full 20 minute shows
02:01:56 [nathanbp]Not watching Ao Haru Ride?
02:03:19 [Cassian]I thought about it but then I heard its only going to be 12 episodes so they're not gonna get anyway in a story like that
02:04:20 [nathanbp]Yeah, I did not realize that the manga is 10 volumes until I just looked it up on Wiki
02:04:33 [Cassian]Yep
02:04:52 [nathanbp]so yeah, probably not going to go anywhere -_-
02:05:04 [nathanbp]I'll give it another ep I guess...
02:05:05 [Cassian]Funimation still hasn't put up Sengoku Basara or Barakamon so I'm not sure I care enough to pirate either
02:05:29 [Cassian]I heard the lead character in Ao Haru Ride has a kind of annoying voice
02:07:02 [nathanbp]wow, that is pretty fail on Funi's part...
02:07:10 [Cassian]It is
02:07:27 [nathanbp]I didn't notice that too much in the first ep
02:07:34 [Cassian]They acknowledged they weren't up a few days ago but they're still not up
02:07:41 [Cassian]Ah
02:07:44 [nathanbp].....
02:08:09 [Cassian]Pretty much
02:08:11 [nathanbp]her voice isn't as annoying as that chaika character's voice anyways >_>
02:08:18 [Cassian]Oh, good
02:08:52 [Cassian]Apparently there's a trailer for the next Monogatari arc since it was on the TV in Kino yesterday
02:09:35 [nathanbp]ah
02:09:50 [nathanbp]I know I'm going to watch it, so...
02:09:54 [Cassian]Yeah
02:10:15 [Cassian]The question is if Shaft will get it done in time for broadcast
02:10:31 [nathanbp]lol, yeah
02:11:01 [nathanbp]I'm sure they'll have something done...
02:11:08 [Cassian]Yeah
02:11:51 [nathanbp]4 episodes of black screens with text?
02:11:59 [Cassian]Sounds about right
02:42:39 [nathanbp]here's the author on Hild, pretty interesting (no real spoilers): http://shinynewbooks.co.uk/bookbuzz02/to-come-back-increased-hild-by-nicola-griffith/
02:42:42 [Sacchi]To Come Back Increased: Hild by Nicola Griffith | Shiny New Books
02:59:42 [Cassian]Pretty cool
03:00:24 [nathanbp]yeah. the book is pretty good too (it's been out in the US for a while)
03:00:52 [Cassian]Cool, I might check it out then
03:04:04 [Cassian]Was this the book with the limited printing you were talking about earlier
03:04:48 [nathanbp]no, that was probably Six Gun Snow White
03:05:19 [nathanbp]which I didn't really enjoy very much....too literary for me, I think >_>
03:09:06 [nathanbp]5 episodes to watch to catch up >_>;;
03:09:11 [nathanbp]Guess I should watch Captain Earth...
03:09:19 [Cassian]Ugh
03:09:27 [Cassian]New visual for GBF 2 https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BsttyjNIEAARSqA.jpg
03:10:26 [nathanbp]ugh...apparently girls can only pilot cute Gundams? >_<
03:19:29 [Cassian]Yeah, this is a running thing. The predecessor to BF the girl gets the Bearguy
03:34:30 [nathanbp].....
03:35:05 [Cassian]Yeah....
03:35:24 [nathanbp]So now in addition to Daichi being useless, Teppei is useless too?
03:35:29 [nathanbp]and Hana is the only useful one
03:35:31 [nathanbp].....
03:35:43 [Cassian]I mean even Miss Sazabi is a variant of a male character's suit
03:35:53 [Cassian]But well
03:39:16 [nathanbp]Thanks Sunrise/Bandai?
03:40:04 [Cassian]Yeah, pretty much
03:41:49 [Cassian]So uh the new girl has the same VA as Tsubasa Chronicles Sakura
04:05:24 [nathanbp]clearly the plot is going to be "The Tsubasa Chronicles characters visit the Gundam Build Fighters world"
04:05:34 [Cassian]LMAO
04:07:07 [nathanbp]Which is really just a reskin of the Angelic Layer world >_>
04:07:18 [Cassian]It is
04:07:57 [nathanbp]Barakamon ep 2 was pretty funny too, I'll probably keep watching
04:08:11 [Cassian]Cool
04:08:48 [nathanbp]although almost all the characters speak some dialect that I don't understand at all, so it's not going to help my studies very much >_>
04:08:55 [Cassian]Nope
04:09:23 [nathanbp]not that watching things subbed really helps that much in the first place >_>
04:09:35 [Cassian]Yeah....
04:14:26 [Cassian]Watching things with captions seem kind of annoying
04:15:18 [nathanbp]?
04:17:36 [Cassian]To retime the captions I mean
04:20:18 [nathanbp]the Japanese closed captions? it wasn't that bad when I was doing it, probably took about 5 minutes
04:20:35 [nathanbp](per ep)
04:20:41 [Cassian]Fun.....
04:22:29 [nathanbp]it's not that long compared to the hour I was typically spending going through the ep afterwards pausing and looking things up >_>
04:23:10 [Cassian]Ugh
04:26:02 [Cassian]The vocab isn't that much of a problem for me as some of the grammar is
04:30:34 [nathanbp]I feel like I'm pretty bad at both, although slowing getting better >_>
04:30:41 [Cassian]Haha
04:30:55 [nathanbp]need to actually find some time to try to read more non non biyori
04:31:23 [Cassian]I need to stop being lazy and try to read stuff in general <_<;
04:32:35 [nathanbp]it's hard to get motivated when almost everything is licensed or fan translated...
04:32:41 [Cassian]Yeah.....
04:34:47 [nathanbp]also I keep reserving more regular books at the library >_>
04:34:53 [Cassian]Lol
04:37:04 [Cassian]I only have two regular books out, I've been good for now
04:38:18 [nathanbp]I have 4 and there are 4 more at the library waiting for me >_>
04:38:26 [Cassian]God damn
04:38:45 [nathanbp]and 3 of those 8 are first books in series >_>
04:39:21 [nathanbp]fortunately most of them are not new books so I can have them out for 3 months...
04:39:27 [Cassian]Oh........
04:42:46 [nathanbp]I should probably head to sleep
04:42:48 [nathanbp]'night
04:44:06 [Cassian]Good night
