Just seeing the BBC News site: Looks pretty rough for some people there.

Hope you are still hanging in there ok. Look at this:

Pretty bad stuff.

@Thad E Ginathom thankfully most of the damage is limited to riverside areas. Still have to check whether all my friends are doing alright, but am fairly hopeful.

There's a layer of haze on every track and when I try to power it with an adapter, it hums like crazy. On the other hand, listening to it makes me feel like I'm finally getting the speaker hype.

Do you have a link to the circuit diagram?

I think your question deserves a full post, so let me do that when I have a bit more free time.

The gist of it is that anyone can phone in a piece of work, and all the reviews of the film I found are doing this. It’s not really an English vs other languages thing. I assume it’s because the film is not meant to be a simple, fully closed story like many of Shinkai’s other films.

Just to be clear, I didn't mean it in the sense of different receptions being a matter of English language v others, but of aesthetic norms between cultures. I've loved anime from basically age 5 onwards, so I'm kinda biased, but growing up in a cultural gumbo like I have can understand why something not having a "neat" ending might discomfit certain audiences but not others. Sorry if I was unclear, haha.

I also happen to agree that a lot of reviews of films I've seen online seem to follow that same general trend of pandering to people who want talking points spoonfed to them, i.e. pointing out the obvious. I personally don't appreciate it, but can see why it's caught on; it's easier to produce and easier to consume— junk food. I happen to like chips, but time and place for them.

Animé and manga are sometimes better than novels. I hope they can recover. I have some catching up to do.

Very sorry to hear about this.

Pretty shocked about this. They represented the best of the industry and it's sad that this happened to them.

Finishing the manga did it end the Punpun experience. And yes, more info on Aegir and the Nexus topology!

Haha, the Schiit hype is real! Curious how it sound TBH, eager for impressions.

And all I'll say is that the manga definitely came to a conclusion. Enjoy!

Haha iPhone actually screwed up my sentence. I meant that the manga has stayed with me long after finishing reading it, and I really connect with the author as a uni student in Tokyo.

It's currently limited to friends.

Thanks zero I was unaware of that -appreciate you clarifying =)

Yes, I guess I'm locked out as well :(
