  • Entirely depends on what you’re looking for in an anime and manga. It’s full of hornybait and fanservice, but also does manage to tell a romantic high school story about how you shouldn’t judge a book by it’s cover and how you gotta keep striving to be your best self while also staying true to your feelings.

    It’s genuinely wholesome, but also targeted more towards guys. If you’re put off by that description, avoid it. If it sounds like your cup of tea, go for it.


  • Honestly, pretty decent adaptation so far.
    I like the VA for Sung Jinwoo. He’s definitely doing a banger job.

    But I do miss some of the more intricate page-spanning artworks where you had to scroll from left to right to even get the full picture of what’s going on. I guess that is just very hard to adapt to an animated format.


  • Okay, so far not bad.
    I like that they don’t rush things, but I haven’t really felt blown away either.
    The manhwa managed to really incorporate the amazing art on these beautiful colored pages with big impressive moments, but that’s not the vibe I am getting from the anime yet. Hoping for episode 2 to do “the grin” justice.









  • “Legal” doesn’t immediately mean “moral”. Everything is legal as long as there isn’t a law specifically banning it, and those laws often only get created as a result of someone abusing their legal right to something.

    Google collects also way more data than you pointed out, in every avenue possible. Ever solved a captcha? You likely helped Google train their image recognition AI. Got an android smartphone (a brand that previously had committed itself to being open-source and linux based)? Have fun with pre-installed unremovable Google Spyware. You’re forced to create a GMail account to interact with the whole App ecosystem of the market.
    Google can remotely (without your consent) download and delete apps on your smartphone, read your personal data (including stuff you have saved on your SD card) and accesses your camera, pictures and GPS-Data regularly.

    I just read an article to prepare for writing this comment and feel actually sick now, I wanna jump ship and get an independent OS, screw the AppStore…






  • Alternatively, upvote/boost your own posts by default when posting.

    I’ve struggled with this question before myself. On the one hand, there is a notable impact in visibility on posts which I’ve self-upvoted versus posts which I did not self-upvote, so it does feel like an unfair advantage. On the other hand, I am also a community member in the community I post. I wouldn’t post something, if I didn’t think it contributes to the overall community. Plus, there’s a bug in kbin going on, that new posts only show up in new but not in hot at all, until there is at least some sort of interaction (a comment, or an upvote, or a boost).
