My current laptop wallpapers is the default for my laptop, which is a plain background with a picture of said laptop.

Mine is my favorite shot from Chen kaige's Yellow Earth of a guy standing up and looking into the sky and his head takes up about 5% of the frame and the rest of it is overcast sky. It's a powerful image but having it as my background for so long has desensitized me to it

I have only seen the first ep, I gotta get around to more.

It's funny but very the story is very inconsequential, ironic considering Monogatari means My Love Story!!

Madoka is the second best anime.

The movie is one of the best but the show doesn't really rank that highly for me

I only watched the movies and I think ill keep it that way.

the first two movies are nearly identical shot for shot remakes of the show anyway and are a superior way to watch it. I think madoka's mom is more of an obvious alcoholic in the show but that's the only difference I remember

I haven't said anything, no worries. Her alcoholism is in like the first or second episode iirc. Just make sure you watch rebellion when you finish the show

The idea of breaking down a work into tropes is not bad in itself, analysing how a particular thing works, what it adds to a piece.

Someone once told me that Lucky Star was the Seinfeld of anime.

That gets thrown around a lot and if you've only seen the first 10 minutes and turned it off it would sound right.

Can you still join up mid match though? the no voice chat thing isnt really a problem cause you can just skype or whatever but that would be lame if you couldnt even get in together

I don't think the info is floated at all. And yeah people complaining about no voice chat are insane because when I play online with friends it's exclusively through Skype calls
