Also SoK, I don't know how much of the manga was covered with the Kenshin anime, but there are a couple of new chapters out there if you're interested.


Ta for the heads up!

Someone was actually kind enough to link me to a official Viz (I think it was Viz) site which had the whole of the first instalment of the new arc free to read!

If anyone is after the Rurouni Kenshin Trust and Betrayal films: someone is selling 'em on eBay for a very reasonable price. Total comes around £20 for both and is shipped from Canada. I was about to confirm payment when I decided to look on Amazon and found 'em for a little over a tenner for the 2. Bargain! :toot:

Rest in peace and thank you.

I was bored (and away from my devices) a couple of hours ago and so thought I'd try the free version of Crunchroll on my Roku :slol: Why do they even bother having a free version?! It's so awful! Loaded up DragonBall Super (for no other reason than it was the first thing on the list) and... I got an advert right off the bat for my troubles. Then the opening credits played out and then... another advert! Only this time it glitched and played 3 times on the bounce. :lol: :x :fp:

Does anyone here use it? Is the free version usually better than what I experienced? Is the premium version worth it?

I use Crunchyroll Premium. It's a little temperamental on mobile but on the whole I'm happy with it.

Signed up for the trial. The app works really well on Roku and PS4. Needs Flash installed on PC. (Which I won't be doing as it's meant to be so susceptible to shady shenanigans.)

Watched first couple of eps of Attack on Titan s2. I hope I didn't witness the show jumping the shark so soon into a season. I mean, one of those turn of events would have been fine-ish, but 2 in the same ep?! Felt a bit too much. The sillier of the 2 is definitely the revelation about the wall.

Yay! Finally figured out how to make subs work again on VLC. They wouldn't switch on from the subs menu on the player itself, ended up having to delve into preferences and then switch subs on from subs/osd.

I didn't care for him much during Part III, but he's grown on me more and more each time he has shown up since.

Part VI turns everything to 11 in that final arc. :wub:

They're both really very good. Seki-kun especially and *especially* Rumi's reactions in ep 2 :lol: :wub:

HunterxHunter has gotten silly :( Spoilers for eps around about the 27-32 mark: The Nen stuff was at first a perfectly fine new addition to the HxH world, then we get to the ep where Hisoka has his fight and it got *monumentally* stupid. I mean, at that point Nen just turns into a anyone can have any power kind of thing. Oh well, at least the fights are still good.

Rurouni Kenshin mangaka Nobuhiro Watsuki charged with child pornography possession

https://headlines.yahoo.co.jp/hl?a=2017 ... 7-yom-soci


Trust me, that's the headline. He was arrested for "possession of several DVDs that included a naked video of a girl in his early teens in his office in Tokyo"

Was just about to post both of those.

That's Kenshin dead. :(

Being confirmed in a number of places as an April 2018 release for season 3 of BnHA. Just gotta hope that it's another 25 ep season.
