Akashic Records of Bastard Magical Instructor 11 Ghost in the Shell: STAND ALONE COMPLEX 2nd Gig 9 (rewatch)

I'll probably go back and do up some of them, but not all at once. But as long as Nakasugi's name is spelled correctly, I'm fine with whatever changes you made, datedness removed or not. Akashic Records of Bastard Magical Instructor #11 Face-off! The Magic Corps Battle

Agreed, if someone could just watch all 3 minutes hours and put down all the important bits, that'd be great.

Yeah, I'm not normally one for implanting themes and lessons in what I write. It's more, "I wanna write about thing", so I write about thing. But if there's room for a theme in something I have in development for... well, longer than the time it took for me to write this specific story for the contest, I'm more than willing to include it, just in a subtle kind of way. Take for example the anime-style story idea I'm currently writing. I haven't posted any of the four completed episodes (read: chapters) here, but from my perspective, in those first four, one might recognize a whole "rebelling against the expectations of your peers/superiors" theme in the actions of the two main characters, and later I'm planning on featuring a "you don't necessarily have to give up if the odds are stacked against you" theme at around the seventh episode twist where things reach a low point for them. There's nothing too concrete or broad or general or whatever one would normally expect out of a story in regards to themes, but hopefully when I post the first batch of twelve here you'll all find it more serviceable than my freestyle, entirely for fun, "I'm not expecting to wow the pants off of anybody, I just want to submit something to this little contest and see how it turns out" story that managed to get second place in spite of its fully recognized flaws. As for the length issues, I'm more comfortable writing stories with larger word counts, probably because I like writing things in such a way that allows the reader to visualize what's going on, like they're watching a TV show or reading a manga or whatnot. Something like 5,000 or 10,000 words would be more my jam than a 2,500 word story that I'd feel most comfortable writing without tell-showing like I'm wont to do.

Naruto 217

Initial D: Battle Stage

I was told it was a freestyle competition, and I did freestyle. If I wrote an actual, legitimate short story, it would've definitely been over 2500 words. Still, the criticisms are sensible, and I'm glad that I got second place regardless of them. So thanks, hopefully I'll turn out something better for the second competition (assuming there is one), especially if there's a larger word limit.

It apparently eclipsed it so hard that it isn't even on MyAnimeList.

Chinese anime is infamous for being worse than its Japanese counterpart, though they're getting a little better at it.

March Comes in Like a Lion 35

Not to be a jerk or nothin' like I was earlier about the Harry Potter/spoiler-marking thing, but can someone please remind Spindack that posting links to the full episode of what you just watch is kind of obnoxious? Your Lie in April 22

This has gone from being an amusing anecdote to annoyingly samey to just being mean-spirited towards JoJo.

Kuroko's Basketball 13

I know, and it's something I'm constantly having to remind myself.

Easily the biggest tragedy since "Oops, I lost the old ASMB archive!"

Inuyashiki Last Hero 2

It's hard to say. Self-deprecation or no, I don't really do well with others voicing firmly negative opinions of stuff I like, even if I completely understand those opinions.

Ah, mumble grumble, I still liked it...

Rewatched Inuyashiki Last Hero 1

To punish the people who think Dimension W was one of Toonami's worst shows.
