    No, but you can transfer it to another "kitty." Only Kitty's are eligible for prize #2.
    So I guess Cat~ wins?

    I'm assuming the thread you mean is this one.

    Aside from what I said there, the best thing that I can say about it is that it makes me feel optimistic when I watch it. The reviews do point out valid flaws, but they aren't nearly as prominent as they seem in the reviews. I compared it to both Evangelion and Eureka 7 in the other thread and it delivers on what makes both of them great.

    The main thing from Evangelion that I see in Captain Earth is the grand plot carried out by the relatively small main cast. All of the characters are involved in something much bigger than themselves and the mysteries behind it are what drive me to keep watching. It's also not as overt with it as Eva is and that makes for a much better experience. It also takes a few smaller elements from Eva, particularly the "stock situations" that are used to get the characters to interact. Unlike Eva, however, it always feels organic and, like I touched on in the other thread, they interact like real adolescents who have grown up like they have. Hana, for example, grew up extremely sheltered with next to nothing in terms of human interaction, leading her to be adorably unaware of her sexuality even while she experiences and acts on urges that are related to it. Where Eva stuck each character with an archetype and then deconstructed it, Captain Earth uses archetypes as a starting point and depicts the characters growing out of them into real people that actually seem human. In short, everything that Evangelion did wrong, Captain Earth does right. Everything that Evangelion did right, Captain Earth does just as well and, in some cases, better.

    From Eureka 7, the biggest thing I've noticed is that Daichi and Hana feels like they were meant to be expies of Renton and Eureka, but somewhere along the line it just didn't work and the writers went in a different direction that maintained the basic dynamic. Their relationship depicts the pure and simple love that we all feel before we realize that nothing can be that simple. I know that the love I see between them would never work for long in real life, but at the same time I can't help feeling like it could because they truly are perfect for each other.

    The Rebuild of Evangelion movies are really good, but it's still up in the air whether or not they're a remake of or a sequel to the original series.

    I got roped into watching the third Bleach movie three years ago and from what I recall it's basically Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories: The Movie but with lots of Spanish guitar. I don't know how or if it's related to the main series.

    Captain Earth is paced well enough that if you binge it, it's just like watching a movie. Same for No Game No Life.

    That's pretty much all the non-Ghibli anime movies that aren't on your list of stuff you've watched that I know of and have seen. From Up on Poppy Hill is Ghibli, but from what I've seen it's rather obscure and hasn't really gotten a lot of recognition. It's okay.

    And yes, I'm aware that none of this is what you're asking for.

    Same. I was loving my laptop until I sold my PS3 copy of Dark Souls in order to upgrade to the PC version and then realized that there is no way I can run it. Damn Steam sales.

    That's when I realized that I really need to make a dedicated gaming PC. Then I can get all my big games off my laptop.

    Pizza Pancakes
    1. Take an egg.
    2. Crack it open and put it in a bowl. Discard the shell.
    3. Mix it with one cup of milk, one cup of flour, and salt to taste. Oregano is recommended, but not required.
    4. Get your griddle or pan or whatever nice and hot. Make sure it's greased.
    5. Get some pepperoni. I've found that slices a half inch in diameter and an eighth of an inch think. You can buy them presliced like that, but but they're kind of expensive.
    6. Throw some pepperonis on the hot pan. 5-7 is good if you're using the size I suggested. Use your own judgement otherwise.
    7. Once they're fried up nicely, pour the batter on top. If you have garlic salt, grind a little of that onto the uncooked side of the pancake.
    8. When it's ready to be flipped, flip it.
    9. Sprinkle cheese on top.
    10. Usually makes 5-6 pancakes.

    More importantly, why hasn't Kitty posted yet? She should be jumping at the chance to get free yuri.[DOUBLEPOST=1404960648][/DOUBLEPOST]

    I'm sorry, but unless you provide sources and use English, I'm not going to take any of what you've said here seriously. What studies were done and how can they be duplicated? Show me a peer reviewed article on the subject and then I'll believe you. Anything else is just hearsay.

    The same goes for the autism thing. I'm autistic as well (professionally diagnosed Asperger's Syndrome) and everything I've read about Autism Spectrum Disorders indicates that everything on the spectrum is purely genetic.

    FIRST UP!

    To get y'all hooked on the thread, this is my second biannual con giveaway thread. It's the same as Ohayocon. Winners get stuff from Matsuricon, which is happening from August 22nd to August 24th. I'm doing this early because I'm thinking about it now and I don't know if I'll remember later.

    PRIZES
    1. Post 97 gets a $15+shipping (no matter where you are in the world) souvenir. If you win, make sure to PM me with your tastes around that time so I don't forgeet.
    2. First Kitty to post in this thread gets yuri if it doesn't cost more than $10+shipping.
    NOW THEN! I have anime recs for ALL OF YOU. It's all recent too, so probably no dubs just yet. If it is available legally as far as I know, I will link to it.

    Captain Earth (Ongoing)
    THIS SHOW IS AMAZING. Think Eureka 7 but with a boomerang instead of a hoverboard. Daichi Manatsu is a normal kid who's living with his uncle because his astronaut father died in a horrible space accident. After going many years without a father, some odd goings on on the island where his father died lead Daichi discover that his father actually died protecting humanity from getting its libido stolen by aliens from Uranus. I KNOW IT SOUNDS LIKE A HENTAI PLOT BUT IT'S TOTALLY NOT. When these same aliens begin to attack the Earth again, Daichi is recruited by his dad's former employers to fight them in a giant robot called the Earth Engine. It's kind of like Evangelion except instead an angsty GET IN THE ROBOT NO DAD I HATE YOU DO IT FINE scene, we get what amounts to:
    From there it's a 2:3 mixture of slice of life and giant robot battles. It especially shines with the characters. These are kids who were clearly written by adults who remember what makes childhood unique from any other phase of life. The facial expressions are also pretty great.

    The animation is also amazing. At its best, it looks like Studio Ghibli decided to make a mecha anime. Oh, and the season 2 closing song is by Supercell, so there's that.

    My Mental Choices Are Completely Interfering with My School Romantic Comedy (10 Episodes)
    Kanade would be a pretty normal guy if he didn't get unavoidable and completely nonsensical choices presented to him at random times. It is the funniest show of 2013. That's pretty much all I have to say about it.

    Kill la Kill (24 Episodes and one unreleased one that will be on the Blu Ray) (It's also on Netflix.)
    Hands down the best thing that ever came out of Japan. 13/10, am currently on my fifth time watching it. It's gotten enough hype on this site, though, so I'm just gonna leave it at that.

    Soul Eater NOT!
    Adorable Slice of Life spin-off prequel to Soul Eater focusing on the lives of DWMA students who do not plan on working in combat. It features a lot of the character and world building that the original series sorely lacks. Features Sid before he was a zombie (Did anyone else totally forget that he was black? I did.), Liz and Patty when they were still scary street thugs, and Jaqueline when she was bicurious. Also, the main character is a freakin' halberd, so there's that. Two volumes of the manga currently in English and more to come, anime is already past that. 10/10, accurately depicts a savage but super fun school life.

    I will add more later because I am dead tired right now.


    LAST THING!

    I'm leaving this Friday. I will be back on August 1st to celebrate my KHViversary and for a few days at the end of August so I can get the prizes shipped to the winners. Until then, use this thread to call me out on all my shit. Do not tiptoe around every teeny tiny little thing that might be offensive to anybody. I have no respect for people who do that.

    In case I forget come Friday, laters.

    Sociopathy is something that people are born with. You can't prevent it because by the time you have access to the the child, it's too late. You can't keep a child from becoming a sociopath for the same reason that you can't prevent a child from becoming autistic.

    Sociopathy is a developmental disability that impairs empathy in people who have it. You can't just teach it out of your child. What you can do is teach your child how to deal with that lack of empathy in a world of people who expect it in him or her or xer and, more importantly how to fake it so that he/she/xir can still get along with other people.
