Quarterly anime roundup March 2017 *Spoiler Free*

I'll write a post every 3 months which'll contain the thoughts I had right after watching an anime. As such it should be taken as mere thoughts that I had directly after watching it. It's NOT a review, more of a final impression if you will.
Anyway It'll contain whatever I watched during those 3 months with little if any regard to release season or current trends.
You can find my complete list of anime I've watched and their ratings on kitsu.io/users/APasz/library
So without further ado.
Japanese title「English title」*=unofficial.

I really didn't watch all that much during the past 3 months, you can blame games for that.

Titles I've completed during this period
2017-01-01 to 2017-03-31

Abusoryuuto Deyuo「Absolute Duo」
At first I wasn't completely sure how much I'd like this one but I found a few redeeming points. I feel that if money wasn't such a driving factor behind it, it could have been an awesome anime.


Amaburi, 甘城ブリリアントパーク「Amagi Brilliant Park」
Heaps of fun to be had here. It's a little contrived but in actually works really well in this case. The ending was nice, a nice happy ending. No need for a second season although I wouldn't pass it up.


The Devil is a Part-Timer!, はたらく魔王さま!「Hataraku Maou-sama!」
I was kinda expecting a cheap and shitty story but was pleasantly surprised.
Had lots of fun watching it. Highly recommend giving it a go.


WWW.Wagnaria!!「WWW.Working!!」
I really liked watching the first 3 seasons + movie. However, this season doesn't have all the characters and there're only 3 things that are consistent; The location, The theme and Miyakoshi Hana san.
It's a fresh start in a parallel world. To put it simply, I ended up really liking this season. The previous season were better imho but this's a great start to a new story line which I'm not going to say no to.


RWBY IV
I'm biased for this one, so of course I think it's cool. However, I'm not 100% sure about where it's going. It reminds of what the BBC did with Torchwood.
I'm think the animation in this season is better, not by much but still better then the last season however, I feel that maybe the story took a bit of a hit due to it. Of course it had a nice little cliffhanger at the end that literally everyone loves ever so much.

Titles I've dropped during this period

-Blood-C .ep3
I like the aesthetic of this anime even though the story is garbage and nonsensical.

Quarterly roundup September 2020 *Spoiler Free*

"Hey look", "Those people know writing and stuff", "Listen to them"... These are impressions, not reviews. Titles completed during this period 2020-07-01 to 2020-09-30 2012 (2009) As long as you turn off your brain it's a good fodder movie. The fx really hasn't held up though. 3 Days to Kill (2014) Not great, well not even good. Actually it's below average. Kevin Costner does an alright job but he's just one man, and just one man can't save this film. Sound and Fx are average at best. Avatar (2009) If there is anything going for Avatar, it's that even 11 years later it's still quite visually stunning which isn't to say its vfx are anything to write home about these days. Acting is good I suppose. Sound and music on the other hand, it's done well, like really well. Glory (1989) With Denzel Washington, Morgan Freeman, and Andre Braugher, how could it not be a great film? Not really familiar with US Civil War specifics so c...

Quarterly roundup March 2022 *Spoiler Free*

" To build may have to be the slow and laborious task of years. To destroy can be the thoughtless act of a single day. "   These are impressions, not reviews. Look for someone much more qualified for those. Titles completed during this period 2022-01-01 to 2022-03-31   47 Ronin [2013]  I had heard mixed but generally positive things about this film. Always been a fan of Reanu, and Hiroyuki so finally got around to watching and I like it. Don't think it's as great as The Last Samurai but it's up there for me. Could've been a bit longer though, to flesh out the witch a bit more, and possibly some of the other 47 Ronin. IMHO if you are interested by feudal Japan or the legend of the 47 Ronin, then consider this a must-watch.   Ender's Game [2014]  Went into this one with only my brothers recommendation. It's interesting to say the least.   Forrest Gump [1994] Everyone knows this movie so need I say more?   Saving Private Ryan [1998]   Again, ...

Time and Date formats.

I wanted to give my take on the debate about which date and time format is the best. The are 3 main formats for dates and 2 for time. D/M/Y, Y/M/D, M/D/Y, 12 and 24 hour time. There are other formats but these are the main ones. So why do I use Y/M/D 24h in a country that uses D/M/Y 12h? It's simple really but first, lets all agree that M/D/Y makes no dam sense. Anyway, moving on, D/M/Y and Y/M/D Makes sense because it goes from smallest to biggest or biggest to smallest and they can be easily swapped between but the biggest reason is due to how a computer counts. The most commonly used counting system is the hexadecimal (edit: sorry, I meant base36, hexadecimal is base 16) system which is from of 0 to Z. So 0, 1... 9, A, B... Z and symbols have their own block but that varies bit as to which character-encoding scheme is used. If you have a set of files that all start with the date and you sort by name. Under the D/M/Y system you get, 01-01-2010 01-02-2010 01-10-2009...
