01:00:42 [nathanbp]Hey
01:00:55 [Cassian]Hey
01:01:24 [nathanbp]Ed is in luck, it's too annoying to cancel things on Right Stuf so I won't be picking up Sidonia early from him >_>;;
01:01:30 [Cassian]I hear the CCS sets are starting to ship
01:01:32 [Cassian]LOL
01:01:49 [nathanbp]Yeah, mine will arrive Thursday apparently :(
01:01:57 [Cassian]Damn :(
01:06:30 [nathanbp]....why is What Did You Eat Yesterday listed as 17+ on rightstuf?
01:07:44 [nathanbp]( http://www.rightstuf.com/rssite/action/store/item/Item?ItemName=9781939130389 )
01:07:46 [Sacchi]What Did You Eat Yesterday? Graphic Novel 1
01:08:01 [Cassian]Whaaaaa
01:08:19 [Cassian]Huh the other volumes are too
01:08:23 [Cassian]I'm very confused
01:10:15 [nathanbp]Yeah.....
01:10:30 [nathanbp]*tweets at Ed* >_>
01:10:55 [nathanbp]Probably a mistake by Rightstuf since they don't have an age rating on the books?
01:11:04 [Cassian]I guess they thought it was Yaoi when its not
01:11:17 [nathanbp]I guess...
01:11:30 [Cassian]Yeah
01:11:50 [Cassian]I still don't think its as weird as From the New World not being shrinkwrapped
01:12:33 [nathanbp]Yeah that seems very bizarre
01:13:32 [nathanbp]although I think Ed being surprised that people thought it should be shrinkwrapped was weirder...
01:13:41 [Cassian]Ed........
01:24:04 [Cassian]I hear he had advanced copies of What Did You eat Yesterday 4 at SDCC so I assume he'll have them at Otakon too
01:26:23 [nathanbp]ah. I didn't order that one from Rightstuf yet >_>
01:26:37 [Cassian]<_<
01:53:38 [nathanbp]Hmm, so no Yen Press announcements at SDCC or Anime Expo and no panel for them at Otakon?
01:53:59 [Cassian]Nope
01:54:09 [Cassian]I assume it will have be NYCC then
01:54:29 [Cassian]Unless they announce it through their twitter or something
01:56:36 [nathanbp]maybe just already licensed too many things?
01:56:51 [nathanbp]well, at least Hanayamata gets quick subs >_>
01:57:22 [Cassian]Maybe or the contracts aren't finalized yet
01:57:29 [nathanbp]Nozaki-kun 4 is apparently languishing in typesetting hell >_>
01:58:11 [Cassian]Probably because of the manga panels in this week's episode
01:59:07 [nathanbp]this week was 5 :(
02:28:13 [nathanbp]so we're expecting a new puzzle on Saturday so we won't get any pieces at Otakon? >_>
02:32:45 [Cassian]Nope
02:32:54 [Cassian]Smash isn't out until October
02:38:59 [nathanbp]they could put the puzzle out early >_>
02:39:16 [Cassian]I doubt that <_<
03:35:05 [nathanbp]hmm, nothing very screen cap-able from Hanayamata this week >_>;;
03:35:23 [Cassian]<_<;;;;
03:36:09 [nathanbp]Your ozone layer tweet is amazing >_>
03:36:24 [Cassian]80s robot anime
03:37:03 [Cassian]The best part is they somehow destroyed a planet's ozone layer in the past
03:37:50 [nathanbp]on purpose?
03:37:59 [Cassian]Yes
03:38:18 [nathanbp]lol
03:38:35 [nathanbp]I don't think that would produce results as quickly as they'd like...
03:38:49 [Cassian]Realistically no
03:38:52 [Cassian]But this is anime so
03:39:19 [Cassian]They might destroy parts of Earth's ozone layer in 24 hours >_>;;;
03:40:03 [nathanbp]I'm not sure it would really take all that long if you really wanted to do it...
03:40:17 [nathanbp]I just don't think it would do much besides give people sunburns >_>
03:40:36 [Cassian]Yeah...
03:40:53 [Cassian]They're aiming for major cities so its even weirder
03:42:43 [Cassian]I think idea is to completely destroy enough of it so things will start dying but I'm pretty sure that's not how it would actually work
03:43:35 [nathanbp]I don't think it would cause more than an uptick in skin cancer rates >_>
03:44:04 [Cassian]Yeah
03:45:47 [Cassian]The guy that created this series is known for a few other good shows with sci-fi elements but this one is just bullshiting them as they go along it seems
03:47:05 [nathanbp]lol
03:47:16 [nathanbp]not that it's alone in making up science >_>
03:47:54 [Cassian]Especially when this is set in alternate history Earth where the Cold War is still going but the USA and Soviet Union have bases on Mars and the Moon
03:49:39 [nathanbp]That's practically every science fiction story from the 80s though >_>
03:49:49 [Cassian]Yeah
04:07:57 [nathanbp]Time for sleep, 'night
04:08:15 [Cassian]Good night!
