  1. One really can't help but notice how similar the design is to Mazinger. It can't be help this is Go Nagai after all. Beside, Melia looks hot.
  2. After every somber scene, you just gotta love Scott Lang lightening the mood at the end. Just how did he ever get out of the quantum realm?
  3. Page 28 [I'm so sorry. We wanted to tell you sooner...please don't be discouraged, okay.] Even with Auntie's gentle words, she can't help but lower her head silently. When lying on the bed, the tiredness of the whole day suddenly came out. However she didn't feel like sleeping, her nerves were strangely awake. There is a window on the foot of the wall that is as tall as the ceiling. The one seen from the door is this one. A window that doesn't open - or rather it was fixed. I wonder if it was by chance that I entered this room, such doubtful thoughts lingered. However, what Noriko felt was not despair. It was anger towards herself. (I should have come here earlier) It was because Noriko now knew here brother was dead. -Last Thursday, there was the death anniversary service of father. With mother being hospitalized, the only ones left in the household was only Noriko and her younger brother in the second grade. Relatives living nearby and neighbors came and help out, but after the service has been completed, everyone became so busy suddenly. She finally slept in the deep of the night, her brother's fall shook Noriko up. [What? Didn't you promise that you will go to the toilet alone?] Being tired, Noriko's tone was ill-tempered. Page 29 [I already did] Takeshi replied sharply. [Then that's good. Good night.] [Brother came] Takeshi whispered silently. [what?] [The altar, it was open] Brother was employed in a pharmaceutical company. He would definitely come back on the day of the funeral service, but without knowing the reason, was absent this year, it made them worry. But coming back at this late at night.... [Did you open the front door?] [No] [Then he won't be able to come in] [but he was here. the sliding door to the altar room was open] [Did you hear anything?] [But....] Rarely meeting him, the younger brother was a bit afraid of his older brother. [This is troublesome. Anyway, why don't you come here.]
  4. Ooh! Was that John Wesley Shipp back in the flash costume?
  5. Okay, here is a disclaimer. I don't know why I didn't notice it before, but the girl's name is Noriko, not Kiko. I don't know where that came from. I wasn't probably paying attention then when I was translating those, but the girl's name is definitely Noriko. Additionally, I've tried to rephrase the sentences to be more palatable to English speakers, instead of literally translating word for word. Hopefully this will make it easier for whoever is going to edit this. Page 26 [I even called the office and the dorm. They are saying that there is no such employee. What could this mean? Please tell me the truth.] Noriko's tone was now like interrogating. Uncle couldn't say anything and just kept quiet. [...dear. You have to say something.] Auntie said defeatingly. [It's not something that we can hide forever] [My brother, something happened to him right?] Takuro closed his eyes. [...he passed away] [Is that so?] Noriko was a bit calm, which surprised the uncle a bit. [Did you already know?] [No. But somehow- something like that] Noriko shifted her words. [About the funeral, has it already been done?] [About that, there has been a delay in communication] Uncle said vexingly. Page 27 [I'm not so sure how to say this. ...in the plant, during work. A chemical tank broke. Tatsuo-kun was just changing the equipment. He still wasn't used to it yet. He wasn't able to run away quick enough. ....but those chemicals, seems like it was a strong acid used for solvents] [was it terrible?] [-there was nothing left] Uncle dropped his shoulders. [I feel somewhat responsible. If I didn't introduce him to our company, no, or at least have him work in the office, something like this wouldn't have happened.] [It's alright. I'm at least grateful for uncle.] Noriko said without any expression. [Are there any belonging that are left behind] [I understand. I'll try to ask about it tomorrow. Why don't you stay here for tonight. From here on, there needs to be a consultation] Uncle said a lot of things, but none of those registered in Noriko's ears. But there was one thing that kept on ringing on her head. [There was nothing left] Noriko was guided in a small room up a few steps from the first corridor.
  6. Anybody still interested in getting this translated? It's been too long since I last stopped and I no longer have the reference materials to continue. So if anyone is interested, just let me know. Otherwise, I'll deem this as dead.
  7. The story is unique and intriguing and doesn't follow the usual shonen formula. This is one of the few manga that I'm following.
  8. One thing's for sure, they skipped a lot of great story material. Really disappointed with this revival.
  9. With in between chapters of Berserk taking so long to come out, wouldn't you think that Miura was involved with the series? Since Berserk is already decades old, it would be very difficult to have to start from chapter 1. I actually don't mind the mash up of the story, as it help hasten the story to catch up with the latest arc, but the problem comes when it gets caught up with current chapters. What I don't like is the animation style. So stiff, and Gats looks so skinny.
  10. Wow, I guess I'm not the only one into SRW. But will this prompt me to finally buy a PS4? Not sure yet. And even if it has too much gundam, I don't mind, I never use any of the Gundam except for Nu Gundam and Z Gundam anyways. The rest are just cannon fodders for me. It's actually the story that interests me and how they mash up the different plots together. Perhaps the story won't be centered around the Gundam and the Go Nagai universe. Additionally, I've been really out of the loop for SRW, but since the death of Hirotaka Suzuoki, I guess they needed a new Captain, hence I'm guessing the inclusion of Yamato. Well, at least the Ahgama can retire now.
  11. I expected a certain somebody to die, I'm glad that person didn't die. And is it me, or does Aunt May get younger and younger in each movie iteration? So what happens to the avengers now?
  12. Awesome. Any chance of showing us some teaser contents from inside the comics itself?
  13. Ooh, another incarnation of Marcoss. Good to know that Kawamori is still involved in this. Interesting that they spelled it Walkure. Could this be intentional or another one of their poor attempt at engrish?
  14. Woot! I liked the first teaser. I like this trailer even better. Something to look forward to this coming November.
  15. Updated it months ago. So far no problems with it on my laptop, but GAWD! Constant BSOD on my desktop.
  16. I just hope that Mika doesn't turn out to be another one of those deus ex machina type of pilot. *cough* kira *cough*
  17. Not much of a fan for fighting games, and no offense to you guys, but I have a particular dislike for Mortal Kombat. But since We're talking about fighting games in general, I would have to choose Sol Badguy from Guilty Gear.
  18. Hmm.... Let me see. Of course there is Tales of Phantasia the first one. Then Tales of Destiny, Tales of Eternia, Tales of Symphonia and Tales of Vesperia. Which only covers the ones that I have actually heard of. Then upon checking the wiki, they have others like Tales of Rebirth, Tales of Legendia, Tales of Abyss, Tales of Innocence, Tales of Hearts, Tales of Graces, Tales of Xillia, Tales of Zestiria and Tales of Berseria, which I had no idea existed before. But that doesn't count the sequels for each incarnation. So I'd say a lot. The reason why I liked Tales of Phantasia was because Kosuke Fujishima was linked to te game. Fujishima is mostly popular for his works in Oh My Goddess and You're Under Arrest.
  19. Tried blowing on money but wouldn't inflate so I stopped. Seriously, no. That's the last thing I would ever do. I always have a backup and I make sure that I have savings equivalent to 6 months worth of my monthly living expenses for emergencies. I normally deduct savings first before actually spending on anything, that includes bills. So everytime I buy something that has a recurring bill attached to it, I compute first if I can afford it before comitting to it.
  20. 5 hours? More like 18 hours. Watched a full season of 24 in one sitting.
  21. You say apocalypse but the image is that of Darkseid (or perhaps this is a DC version of Apocalypse that I'm not aware of). If you're talking about Apocalypse of the X-men, Thanos will definitely wipe his arse on the floor. Darkseid, however, is a different story. If this is somehow a DC Apocalypse, then I do not have enough information to offer an opinion.
  22. Wasn't that fan made? They're using the design which I would like to call "Ultraman Basic". Although the dynamics looks good, there are still flaws if you scrutinize every bits and pieces of the video.
  23. Yup, I've heard of her. That song in particular was the opening song for Gurren Lagann. But to be honest, I've never really paid any much attenton to her.
  24. Honesty as a best policy? Absolutely. I make it a point never to lie. I just don't tell the whole truth. I've manage to learn avoiding telling the truth without ever lying. It's something similar to what Jess mentioned.
  25. I suppose I should have the biggest say in this considering I was the one who rebuilt the wiki from the ground up. A part of me would be sad if the wiki is to be deleted since I spent a considerable amount of time building it. But then again, looking at the hits and statistics of the wiki, it seems that it doesn't get the much needed attention that it should be getting. If there is no use for the wiki, then there is really no reason for me to say no even though it has some sentimental value to me. Additionally, I don't really own any of it so I really don't have any rights to go against the wish of Ryuki/Jess. I guess you could consider it as just bragging rights now. Again, I support whatever decision Ryuki/Jess makes as the owner. Like I always say I'm just here to give my support.
