"Kilimanjaro" by The Teardrop Explodes has been a longtime favourite album and is possibly the most atmospherically strange record ever made without slipping into Jandek-like atonality.

What was HBO's peak 80s/90s price? Because Netflix sure is pushing that.

An excuse to save your money?

That sure is a selection.

I am a petty man and want them to use the discarded Michael Nyman score from the original. But also because Convening a Coven is a personal favourite.

🌹GREETINGS, COMMONERS!🌹

Happy to announce my return as the English voice of Ronove Romiere in Season 4 of WELCOME TO DEMON SCHOOL! IRUMA-KUN!

You can hear me in Ep 2, now available on Crunchyroll! Massive props to @bangzoomstudios.com, Mami Okada, & @jalenkcassell.bsky.social for all the fun!

I’m amazed he writes this much in his rants when he can’t read anything that long without pictures.

It's OK not to like something. It's also OK to admit you're not the target demographic for a show without begrudging others their enjoyment. We have 31 flavours of ice cream for a reason.

As much as my limited storage appreciates having 12 episodes on a single blu-ray (or 50+ on an SD-Blu), my sense of progress prefers having to switch discs every 4-5 episodes so it feels like I'm actually getting through something.

Also, make it sound native - don't slavishly copy intonations and inflections which aren't colloquial in the target language.

OK, I have one more because I have Shinesman on in the background:

It's better when dubs let script writers play things a bit fast and loose on some aspects, and let the cast have fun with it. Folks will remember a good dub with strong writing and acting more than they will something hyper-literal.

The British Library has started transferring material from the KLF Kollection for listening and... there may already be some new alt mixes in there!

We did the following series as well, which wasn't nearly as off the wall, but still fun. The highlight was Angela calling the human MC an asshole in appropriately rude Japanese.

But this is the show where if you abuse the Jewelpets, you're forced to work as a slave making iPhones and later in the series they eat the class goat.

IIRC they removed all the licensed music from the Japanese home video version, including when Angela turns into Kenshiro and they play YOU WA SHOCK.

There's some excellent material in here, including one of the best Game Theory recordings I've ever heard.

It had an official sub, but only to be used as dubbing references for various E/SE Asian languages.

I know 'cuz I worked on it and the show is **BATSHIT INSANE** on every level.

Have you shown them Green Green yet?

Okay CTA. This is a good sign.

Given SA macho culture, it‘d be appropriate.

S&S is creepy *as an adult* - and oh the times when you could tell a child "go light a fire..."

now that's more like it www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

Bavarian pretzels are overrated. It's all about the Laugenstange or Laugenbrötchen.

That's not a bad take. That's like saying "if a donut shop doesn't keep its hours around shift workers or broke college students, it's not very good." It's just objectively true.

(Insert snarky comment about the actress bringing herself to the role here.)

I mean, seriously, how do you top this?

I've heard "sources" and... she sure sings the notes on the page.

But I stand by my assessment that nobody has ever surpassed Jodi Benson.

sure a zine making workshop might stop AI, but have you considered a how to burn down the datacenters workshop
