I should note I didn’t see “the thread” people are talking about. I just saw anime people on my timeline pointing out people still talking about the sus thing and I thought it funny that it’s still going on. I never go digging for the poop. Don’t ever dig for the poop.

apparently the script for the new madoka movie has been written since before thunderbolt fantasy started, which means its probably gonna do the boring thing and wrap everything up neatly imo https://twitter.com/Butch_Gen/status/1386278371189936129?s=20

In case anyone is curious about the aforementioned tweet/thread: https://twitter.com/Locksneedfartin/status/1386000194844700672 Notably, the thing they're complaining about is "sus" being used as a translation for "kyodoru" in the original, which is a shortened version of "kyodoufushin", which is "acting suspicious" so "sus" ends up being a fairly 1:1 translation in both meaning and structure.

Shinjobi posted:I just watched the 3rd episode of "I shaved and then brought a high school girl home." This series is one I was kinda on the fence about, due to it revolving around a pretty traumatized person, and I've gotta say this last episode really struck me in the worst way. It's one thing to have confrontations between mc and this girl where she is trying yet again to barter her body for her stay, which while disgusting is pretty much where she's at by this point of the series. It's another to have the anime just loving linger in on zooms over her lingerie'd tits and rear end repeatedly during this confrontation. It was disgusting. There have been plenty of other tone deaf adapations, but this one just irritated the hell out me. In that case it seems diegetic, in that the camera is going along with what she's attempting to do.

It's definitely been the most egregious example to this point, but after earlier examples of male gaze I just don't know if this scene needed it spelled out quite like that.

I just mean that it could have been written as a piece with Rebellion. itd be more interesting to me if this was a current script, given his work on thunderbolt, which rules. but its all just spitballing, i dont know poo poo

Hot take #1: Nagatoro is obviously exactly the sort of teen who would use the word "sus" in general conversation Hot take #2: I think the new Madoka movie could be good or it could be bad, and I will decide which I think it is once it has actually been made and I have actually watched it

i'm going to just not pay any real mind to the new madoka movie until after it's out and then maybe i'll watch it eventually also you don't have to post the nagatoro thread it's the most boring thing imaginable to discuss

Sus has been around forever, at least here in Australia. I could go dig up some mafia games on these forums from years ago where everyone is calling everyone else "pretty sus" I'm fascinated by this idea that it's a new slang word. Was it not a common phrase in the US before?

marumaru posted:wow poo poo looks like i'm missing out, will give those a watch! imo Magia Record (which has an anime but is primarily a gacha game) is easier to enjoy if you accept it as its own thing instead of going in expecting Madoka 2. edit: seconding endorph on the mami + kyoko manga, that one rules

There's also the most important Madoka spinoff manga, Homura Tamura. Is the Magia Record anime self-contained or does it end a "hope you like gacha if you want the rest of the story" note?

imo the only engagement that guy needs is anyone who looks at his tweets clicking on the report button. twitter moderation sucks rear end and they probably won't do anything about it but if there are enough reports they might eventually glance at them and at least delete his garbage.

Its not hard to find some random rear end in a top hat to turn into a convenient example of how terrible a person is for disagreeing with something.
