Here's a look at the math set, cartridge stickers and "high class club-style" Arino business card that came with DVD box 11.

The Castlevania challenge was really good too, a full hour, but has a pretty depressing segment - apparently they over-spent on the 10th anniversary projects, so they had a "How can we trim down the show's expenses?" segment.

Is there a chance to even get a raw of this? I'd been anxiously waiting for Arino to return to Castlevania.

Not from me, sorry. I'm not willing to risk being caught and sentenced to a life of rotating a lever to make the sushi go around in a restaurant. You can always buy the boxset, Amazon.co.jp ships overseas.

They could increase their revenue stream by, say, letting Discotek release another DVD.

Worth pointing out that since the yen is in the crapper right now, the new DVD boxset costs about as much as Discotek's DVD set right now. 50 usd or so.

Funny thing, I tried Animal Fries once and I really wasn't a fan. Better just to get the regular stuff on your first trip, I think. I wouldn't want Arino to have gone to In-N-Out, gotten something interesting, and ended up having a poor impression of the place.

In-N-Out is insanely overrated. Their burgers are okay and their fries taste like potato chips. Animal Style just sucks. Thank you for reading my fast food opinion.

I'm so happy to hear that I'm not crazy. I went to LA last January and got to try In-N-Out after hearing everyone from Cali going apeshit about them for years and it was... okay, I guess? I'd take Five Guys, Smashburger or Steak 'n Shake over them any day.

The fries might have been the worst I've had at a fast food place.

When you're from a backwoods shithole that doesn't even have a Target and it's an hour-long drive to Carl's Jr./Hardee's, In-N-Out fries is like, wow, luxury food.

I can see that being the only excuse to really thinking it's great but I have no clue how the gently caress anyone can enjoy their fries, I literally would rather eat cardboard.

It's a victim of its own hype. People go expecting the world and it's usually just decent to pretty good. The only thing I generally like there is their animal style fries (must request fries to be made extra crispy, otherwise it's garbage) but I don't go there often unless I'm in a trashy burger mood. Their burgers are good in a specific greasy sort of way, but I'd probably just go to a gourmet burger place instead. You can do a LOT better for yourself food-wise in a foodie area like SF than In-n-out.

It's not a "never" -- Kakaricho doesn't want to upload it due to Japan's incredibly harsh laws about file sharing, and our group doesn't feel comfortable subbing and releasing DVD-exclusive content that've just been released. We may get to it eventually, or maybe someone else will do it.

I think french fries in particular are a major point of disagreement. I hear a lot of people say that Five Guys has amazing fries, but I've had them on a few occasions and they always seem like the soggiest, limpest, crappiest fries I've ever had. I even like the new Wendy's fries more than that, and Wendy's fries are currently about 60% salt by volume.
If you want good fries you go to Chik-fil-a or you go to Rally's/Checker's.

Or how about we just live with some contents which is meant to be more exclusive not being available? The translations have so far been pretty well tolerated (and likely even appreciated) by the show, but spreading the DVD stuff, or encouraging its spread, may be a clear step over the line.

Not like all the more clear-cut stuff is subbed yet either way.

I like Five Guys fries a lot when they are good but they are extremely high variance. I've also had them when they're exactly as you describe.

I did Ikki from DVD boxset #2 for /vrgccx/, but I only made a script watching my DVDs, I didn't touch the video files. And I never will, I have a pretty decent life over here, a 10 year prison sentence would sorta crimp that a bit.
It might sound strange, coming from someone who subs, but I'd like it if people bought the Japanese DVDs too. Most of the content on them has been subbed already, some of the extras are pretty cool. and it supports the show too.

(And as was pointed out, the yen is currently in the crapper, so it's a good chance to buy them...)
