    Last I heard it was on like, shonen jumps quarterly magazine or some quarterly magazine? So yeah, like 4 chapters a year...

    Pokemon Go wants to catch (almost) all your app permissions

    Interesting article. Kinda makes me reconsider whether or not to actually download it when it releases.

    Not really spoiler spoilers, but eh, better safe than sorry, it's more of a minor explanation.
    Are you saying it gets worse? I was going to give it the "well, it's trigger" grade benefit of doubt, but you're making me rethink that choice. I only have Kiznaiver and Joker Game left from previous season's finished titles, maybe I should skip the former...

    His first major production there was Kill la Kill, a project that saw him reuniting with Gurren Lagann's writer to essentially produce a new version of Gurren Lagann.
    Yeah, about that.

    Yen press usually release 1 vol Every 3-4 months, so yeah, it's gonna take a while to/never catch up till it's finished for 2 years in JP.

    Yen Press has actually been getting stuff out fairly quickly from what I've been hearing. I haven't bought much from them so idk if that is true but it does sound like their reputation is getting a little better.

    11/15/2016 for Re:Zero novel vol 2, so 4 months. It's a bit of a shame they can't put volumes out at a 2 months interval in order for western readers to catch up more easily, even if only in eBook form with physical releases following later, but yeah, still better than nothing.

    i think i've already died inside because i no longer care about privacy shit at all

    i mean obviously i don't want it to fall into the wrong hands where it could be used maliciously, but if it's a massive corporation like nintendo and google, i don't give a fuck. they can own me if they want.

    i-it's alright if it's you, nintendo-senpai

    Nah. Screw Kiznaiver. It's too stupid for how serious it's trying to be. Suspension of disbelief covers SF technology and magic, not lack of basic logic and utter retardation of the entire cast.

    @Hemo did you watch both parts of ep 1? It was a 2 part season opening.
    It was the two part.

    not sure what is with the hate circlejerk of kiznaiver in this thread tbh

    i mean it's not a good show but it's not atrociously terrible. it seems to be well liked outside of this thread

    That was actually my reaction as well. They played what could have been a truly obnoxious character in a way that really worked out better than I thought it would. However, my rating of the series didn't go as high as yours simply because the MC annoyed me too much from beginning to end and the humor didn't click.
    I couldn't stand the mc either but he at least did get a little better. The other aspects of the show is what earned it the 7.

    There are 8 LN vol's out so far in JP, the WN is even further ahead, but the anime adaptation will stop at the end of the 3rd arc which is vol 6 of the LN's afaik.

    I felt it got better. Episode 3 and 4 are probably the best in the series. If you don't like those I'd say drop it. I wasn't overly fond of the first two episodes either.

    yeah, i said it wasn't a good show. 5 is 'average' on MAL and that's pretty much what i thought it was.

    but it's not atrociously terrible like some people in the thread make it out to be. that title would be better suited to something like kabaneri

    Well, dunno about a circlejerk. I explained why did I drop it personally. The idiocy of the cast and the plot would work in a pure comedy series, but Kiznaiver apparently takes itself seriously.

    I'm pretty much on this side: even if places take the minimum information ($$ info is my thought), it can still "highly impact you" if you're directly targeted rather than if people research why you're alongside a river for 20 minutes trying to catch water pokemon...hmmm

    The WN is being translated, but the tl speed isn't that fast. The anime already passed the last translated WN chapter which is when Subaru heads off to the capital again to heal and the election.
