    Hime-chan no Ribon

    Has anyone seen this show before? How good would you say it was? The premise seems interesting to me, but at 61 episodes I am questioning whether I want to start it or not. Here's a group who presumably took the DVDs and ripped them, providing all 61 episodes raw in a 15-gigabyte package...

    Bad Sportsmanship

    Suppose there are two people, A and B, who agree to play a friendly game of chess together. As the game opens, it looks as though the players are evenly matched. Gradually, the game shifts towards Player B's favor. In the early middle phase of the game, Player A discovers that one of his...

    Error Made in Merger of Threads

    Someone on the staff has decided to merge and/or splice threads together which offer the same magazine, comic, movie file, etc. While this may benefit the community in the long run, there are some kinks which need to be worked out. Kinks I'm not sure the staff member who is doing this is aware...

    Kisaragi

    I wasn't sure where to post this, mods. I just finished watching the film Kisaragi and I have to say ... wow, what an amazing film. It was like watching one of Oscar Wilde's plays were it on steroids. Amazingly well-written, amazingly well-executed mixture of comedy, drama, and mystery. And...

    Final Fantasy statistics, Searching for

    I tried Googling these this morning with no luck. Thought I might try asking if anybody here knows where I might find the answers to these questions ... 1. What are the sales for each Final Fantasy game? (main series only) Preferably in the form of a bar graph. 2. What are the...

    Star GIFs?

    I was wondering if the forum software came with a star icon; or if it doesn't, if it wouldn't be too hard to implement it. Why: just for the visual effect of posting :star::star::star::star::star: and seeing instead of saying things like "5 stars" or "5.0" or "5/5", etc. I dunno. Just a...

    Equality Now, RapeLay, & the American Public

    What is your highest degree of education?

    Select the one choice which best describes your highest level of education. Purpose: I thought it'd be fun to see if our figures are similar to those of society-at-large or not; and if not, in what ways they differ. This is not a scientific study. It is non-random. It does not check against...

    Too Much Info, Girl!

    Someone I know on Facebook updated her status to say (and I quote): Okay, now before you jump to any hasty conclusions, let me keep filling you in with some very important details about this girl. First of all, she had a bad reputation (spread by the other girls in our class) for having...

    I've looked and looked and looked all over the Pixiv pages for a way to sort images by popularity and I just can't seem to find one. So I've been stuck looking at images in the order they've been uploaded to the site -- a really crummy way to try and find good artwork! Anybody know (a) how I...

    "I Can't Help You. Sorry!" feature discussion

    One of my pet peeves when I post a request on a forum is when I get a reply from somebody who doesn't know the answer. It's polite of them to have at least let me know that they cared to try for me, but it always gets my hopes up and then dashes them against the rocks -- and that feeling sucks...

    Wiping the $late Clean?

    This is just a hypothetical for each person to ponder on his own: Imagine if worldwide the people of Earth were to wipe the economic slate clean? Everyone's savings would be transformed to $0. Everyone's debts would be transformed to $0. Lives ruined, lives restored. Imagine if we just agreed...

    Depression Ends Footballer's Life

    Robert Enke had it all. He was the national goalkeeper for Germany's professional soccer team. He had 45,000 adoring fans. He was married. He had what every guy wants: a means to survive comfortably, a beautiful partner to fuck, and the respect of other human beings. And yet Robert Enke threw...

    Why do JAVs not have substantial stories but eromanga do?

    You can't say "they don't have a story because they don't need one." That's not really an answer. There are plenty of things which we don't need in life which we have anyway. And you can't say it's because a story wouldn't be appropriate for porn, either, because obviously it is: just look at...

    America's Struggle with Sexual Expression

    Exhibit A: Americans are fearful of "licentious" material like hentai, video games with sex in them, or explicit sex scenes with full nudity in rated R or PG-13 films. Exhibit B: Americans have no problem selling this at the check-out aisle of every grocery and supermarket in the nation...

    ボイン vs 巨乳

    Just curious. Today I watched an episode of FMA, and in it one of the characters asks: お前、ボイン、好きだろう? Then the other guy answers, 大好きっす、ボイン! And then the word ボイン echoes a few times for comedic effect. I always thought ボイン was just an adjective that was used to describe a girl's big breasts...

    I Need Help Backing Up PS2 Save Files
