Free Month of Crunchyroll

Narutards in general, sure. Here in BD though? It's Fairy Tail that seems to really make people retarded more.

Glad that I'm not familiar with BD fags anymore. I left that shitty Mazecity or whatever anyway.

I didn't figure you for a Gary Stue lover.

I haven't done this yet?

>being this much of a sellout
>being this gay

Ehh... I wish... But I own a heavy gaming desktop, so I can't really move it just to watch anime. My Rig is upstairs while the tv is downstairs.

>crunchyroll

HORRIBLESUBS.nig

You're welcome.

It's not that I think that SAO is bad.

It's just fucking boring.

Like holy shit boring.

Fuck that boring shit.

But there are definitely worse animes out there.

Like what Guilty Crown became.

To be fair, from I have seen from SAO, yeah it is overrated but is it terrible? Not in my opinion, it's just meh…

I've seen every episode of the series so far, the latter half of this season was okay, a bit of feels. First half of the season was kind of enjoyable too, mainly because all I did was stare at Sinon's ass.

First season was completely uninteresting.

That ass is the only real incentive I have now to even try to pick up SAO. Sinon seems like best waifu in the series.

How big is anime over there?






You could try a really really long HDMI cable, or a bunch of dollar store cables and extension adapters. Although then it might probably be a huge pain in the ass to control it. 60ft USB extension anyone?

By the way, where does FMA(:B) fit on that whole scale? I assume it's not hardcore, but is it considered casual?

On topic, how much higher quality is torrent vs. Crunchyroll?

Brotherhood is nessary for FMA lovers, but if you don't watch the first series then it works for casuals. Depends on your weeb level. Desu/wapanese made it worst like naruto and bleach but still i think it a necessary one to watch.

Streams are encoded down for file size and browsers i think. Unless your watching it on your tv like netflixs i think it less quality. Torrents are able to download higher quality since the encoders can keep it in high bitrates or pure bd rip quality, but that based on who your torrenting from more then what the medium of delivery you choose. All streams are mp4/flv based to the most part, but someone else can tell you more then my dumbass can consider.

On the point of cables for getting from computer to tv... Just build a simple media box which is 300$ or buy a computer for cheap. Just needs a duo core cpu 2gb rams and a half decent gpu or download/convert all your shit to mp4 avc ac3/aac format and use a bd player or tv with usb. No soft subs or x265 mkvs but meh.

Surprisingly, it's rather common these days, compared to years ago when it was more of a niche hobby. I suppose it's bound to happen when your population crosses 150 million.

Unfortunately, majority of the people here are very... mainstream in terms of anime likes. The typical Bleach, Naruto, Fairy Tail, Death Note, a little One Piece and SAO seem to dominate the more casual taste. However, it is always nice to find more and more people who actually watch more "out there" and higher quality stuff like Mushishi.

I'm curious, does load shedding make torrenting more popular than streaming?

Load shedding has no effect on that here, enough people have generators here now. However, slow and lack of proper internet makes torrenting the go-to choice to watch most anything here. A disconnect fucks up buffering when it comes to streaming videos.

More than streaming though, because only a few are really capable of taking advantage of what net they have and their know-how of torrent and anime sites, the most popular method of sharing here is literal physical sharing, via pen drives and what not. I know I've given out my fair share of anime because I seem to be the only one in my friend circle who knows what nyaa is.

Actually, load shedding probably makes few pick up torrents around here, just not much, because no brains. I've had it with DDLs in the past due to power failure so I found an alternative that was torrents.

And yeah, streaming fucking sucks. Shit quality to top it all off.
