The adaptation is fantastic. It even elevates some parts beyond what is possible in manga, taking full advantage of the way animation, sound and music allow for more complex expression of a narrative.

The manga is also great, and worth experiencing. Having read it in no way ruined the anime for me.

The story is so insanely full of details that even if you don’t get into both manga and anime, whichever medium you prefer is worth watching/reading twice, just because you notice and put together new things on a second go.

Dungeon Meshi, or Delicious in Dungeon, is a renowned manga series by Ryoko Kui, and my personal favourite of all time.

The first half of an anime adaptation by Studio Trigger (of Kill la Kill and Cyberpunk Edgerunners fame) just wrapped.

It’s about a party of adventurers that lose one of their members deep in a dungeon, right before using a return spell to get all but that one member back to the surface to safety.

Having lost most of their gear, provisions and all of their funds, they resort to the taboo of eating the monsters they kill as they delve back into the dungeon to retrieve the remains of their lost companion, so they might revive her.

The entire story takes place within just this one dungeon, and is a masterclass in extreme-detail world building and lore. The same goes for the characters.

The series starts off at a slow burn, masquerading as a comedy with unusually intricate worldbuilding, but slowly develops into a phenomenal fantasy story that dives deep into its characters.

[email protected] has been a huge success. And the monthly active user-count suggests there’s plenty room for subscriber growth still.

Now that the season is over, I suspect the people who don’t watch shows weekly will start joining, too. And season 2 will be even more great as the then the community will already be around and have a user-base.

Can’t wait.

No it wasn’t.

Go check out the first few posts on [email protected] to learn why. Essentially the startrek instance admin was power tripping, instance got abandoned by the main moderators and content contributors to get away from that.

It would be an age of anime content, because I’m going nowhere.

She’s always done VA work. Apparently starting with everquest in 02, and then Artemis in the original God of War in 03.

So that would have been during Farscapes production, and before she ever appeared on Stargate.

You can’t go wrong with the extra-caring and friendly elf.

Thanks!

Balatro, if anyone was wondering.

B-tree file system, actually.

I have no clue what could be causing that. I’d start looking into each link in the chain and making sure it’s working.

But any halfway reasonable config should be able to handle audio playback, no matter how lossless. Audio-only just doesn’t achieve datarates that would choke up… Anything.

Essentially, benchmark file transfers, transcoding, etc. Make sure each step of how it works is in fact working. Check drive SMART health… Whatever you can think of.

Also logs. No need to read through thousands of lines, but looking at the lines time stamped around when the issue occurs is always a good idea. FFMPEG logs, JF logs, client player logs, does SMB or whatever network drive protocol you’re using have logs? If it does, check em.

My contributing mostly happens in the anime community on Lemmy, but I’m so thankful to you guys.

Whenever I need some variety I come find a corner in tenforward to sit down and browse, and instantly my trekkie heart feels right at home.

Completely bonkers, and an absolute masterpiece?

This one will be… Interesting. Either for the right reasons, or the wrong ones. Either way… Interesting.

“You scared me… I want you to do it again.”

I haven’t tried all the Lemmy apps in a while. I use Thunder which has had spoiler support for a while.

The first season ended just past the midway point in terms of numbers, on chapter 52/97. That would leave a second season with 1.9 chapters to adapt per episode, assuming it is again 24 episodes. This season started off adapting three chapters per episode, then dropped to two for most of it. That pace remained extremely consistent.

The manga chapters grow very narratively substantial in the last third of the series, so there are definitely chapters coming up that would fill a whole episode on their own. So in terms of content it would be fair to say we are at about half.

So yes, there’s definitely content left for a bigger and even better second season.

Does whatever client that is even support spoilers in the first place?

I actually know her more from games. She is one of the first “real” actors to take acting work in the games industry seriously and she is in a TON of games. Mass Effect, Dragon Age, Uncharted, Gears of War, Crysis…

I particularly enjoyed her character Audrey ‘Mac’ MaCallum in the CoD Infinite campaign.

Claudia Black is great in everything.
