Three Days of Happiness which is actually the light novel title. The manga adaptation title is "I sold my life for ten thousand yen per year" but I like the LN title more. I recommend reading the author's afterword in the LN if you finished the manga.
That's unfortunate, but I hope the voice actors get what they want. I really love the English VAs for the new regions so I want to hear more of them. In the meantime, I'll be using the other languages.
... and since !genshin_impact@lemmy.world doesn't get pulls megathreads, I'll be bragging my pulls here instead :P
I love Dehya. So "losing" 50/50 to her is a big win for me. She's C4 now.
And of course, Xilonen. I heard she's geo Kazuha with healing instead of grouping. I don't care so much for meta but I'm happy I brought home two cat women with me yesterday.
Surreal. Never read any of Junji Ito's works. I've only seen his artworks through social media. I don't like horror much, but let's see how long I can keep up with this one.
This thread is like 2 months old and I'm rewatching the episodes of the threads I missed on, so let's go through this via screenshots.
I'm pretty convinced this toilet sign is Ougi and Nadeko. I think it's easy to forgot that Ougi is a boy now.
We finally got the opening for Nademonogatari which features both Kana Hanazawa and Saori Hayami. I don't know if Nademonogatari is the first time I've heard the two together. Both their voices share this characteristic I can't describe in English but when you hear it, you might get what I mean.
I'm certain this is a callback to an older scene in the series. Either Koyomi or Ougi meeting with Tsukihi. You can also say Akira if you'd like.
Marina Inoue sounded completey different here, obviously because this isn't the same Sodachi we knew. She's a lot more compassionate and sister-like to Nadeko. I didn't even recognize her until Nadeko said so herself. I'm actually quite glad Sodachi is doing better here and didn't turn out to be a one-off character in the series (as she kind of came out of nowhere previously).
There really is something about girls cutting their hair short when they want to change something about themselves. It's a really interesting phenomenon that boys don't really have an equivalent to. More interestingly I guess, this scene parallels with Hitagi and Koyomi during Mayoi Snail.
By far the shots that reminded me that Monogatari is "peak cinema", as they say. Live action shots, somewhat reminscent of early 2000s handhelds composited with a running topless Nadeko.
Right now: 0.3GB per user per month. This number is probably much higher for other instances because I don't keep copies of federated images anymore and I've been compressing images early on.
I managed to bring down ani.social's monthly costs to only ~14 USD when converted (which includes everything except backups). With 165 monthly users, that comes to around ~0.08 USD with a lot of accomodation.
Lemmy is efficient in resources except in storage (database and images) which grows infinitely. Unless you're purging older posts and images, it keeps growing (very slowly).
I made it a small badge so people wouldn't have to feel obligated to donate. But yes, the entire instance has been community funded already thanks to generous one-time and monthly donations!
I thought subdomains were people using PDS. So I don't know anyone running a PDS. I might try running one just to see what it's like and actually learn the network.
I don't think they're using a PDS though. In fact, it's really hard to tell who's using a PDS or not. I'm not sure what the effect of this is in community-building and I wonder if control over the network is really decentralized. This is really... confusing.
People have suggested making a portal/quiz for instance signups, but that adds to the barrier. There are also problems like how in-depth and inclusive it should be. It reminds me of Linux distro pickers that often suggest weird niche distros.
There are already big/default instances in the Fediverse though but there are people who actively discourage this. Maybe Mastodon just had a bad start and Bluesky learned from that. I wonder if Bluesky's PDS will be like Fediverse instances though. Many Fediverse instances are built around shared interests but the PDS just looks like a glorified handle.
Personally, I think the Fediverse discourse should shift to designing social media with decentralization in mind rather than mimicking mainstream social media with a "decentralized twist". I don't think the Fediverse will ever be as big as Twitter, but it doesn't have to be. It just needs to be sustainable enough to keep new conversations going.
Doesn't answer the question but maybe it's worth sharing anyway.
I've finally caught up to the 7th episode of Monogatari Off Season. I wish the series was more popular but I guess it's hard to get into for some especially when there's 100 non-linear episodes prior to Off Season. I realized the weekly rikka thread died so I'll try to revive that starting later tonight.
I spent most of my free time playing Persona 3 Reload the past few weeks and I've been considering watching the anime movies.
Also, it's typhoon season again so I hope everyone can stay safe.
I never thought of Spirited Away that way but now that you mention it, it does resemble isekai.
