[Anime] GFF Anime Club

Haha yeah you still showed up after the first episode even though I started super late. =')

Anyway sorry for passing out again (long day) but it's alright cuz I need rebroadcast last night after the episode order screw up for Guu Deluxe.

Additional Spam:
Current lineup is R.O.D The TV and Guu Deluxe. I have not quite decided what I want to do for the weekend. Really looking for people to throw out suggestions here and not me talking to myself all the time. =I

Otherwise I guess we could go back to Tylor and show the OVAs or perhaps some Gunbuster and then Diebuster (or whatever it's called~ GROOOOOOOVIN MAGIC).

I was speaking idiomatically.

Hi Shorty~ tnx for postin~

I'm not necessarily against running either of those two shows on the weekend but both of those were suggestions for slot 1 which is meant more for interesting/alternative shows. That said R.O.D The TV has been picked for slot 1 and it will be running for 26 episodes.

Here's my post again:

If people are enjoying Guu then the second slot can continue with the Guu OVAs which up the ante even more.

If people are enjoying the Read or Die OVA then we can watch the TV show which follows after the events of the OVA for the first slot. I must express that while good the TV show is not nearly as good as the OVA in my opinion.

Other possible shows for the first slot include:

Fantastic Children
Haibane Renmei
Hanada
Zettai Shounen
Freedom
Stellvia of the Universe

Running a blank here for what I want to put in slot 3 - the weekend show.

I'm open for suggestions. Typically I go with the first slot being for interesting or alternative shows, the second for light-hearted and/or comedies, and the third for awesome but usually it's been sci-fi. If you have suggestions for any of these slots please let me know. If you have any other suggestions for the show in general I'm all ears too.

Again slot 3 doesn't strictly have to be an awesome epic or space junk but generally it has been something of an awesome nature to that effect. I only mention this to keep things balanced. That said R.O.D The TV has an action adventure feel to it kind of like Cowboy Bebop which was in slot 3. Not that we have an excessive line-up of all comedy shows or all super serious or all woah wacky i'm trippin balls man but I'm just putting it out there that I like to have variety.

But I aim to please and if you guys want to watch a little boy help dead people or hang out with angels on the weekend instead of blasting holes through space and romping on an adventure with a crew of varied misfits then that's cool. Since R.O.D The TV fills that requirement to an extent I'd be fine with any of the shows from that list. Any other suggestions that I haven't listed that might be good?

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Gegege no Kitarou has been remade a gazillion times. Not sure where to even start. Doesn't look like much has been subbed and lots of dropped projects.

Also shorty I know you didn't mean them together. My point is I'm not sure either of those two shows fit slot 3 (the weekend slot) all that well. Slot 1 is already taken by R.O.D The TV which is the slot I think they'd work better in. Not saying I can't mix things up if people want that.

FELIPE NO

Since noone decided to really discuss this besides Shorty and myself I've decided to turn the weekend show into movie night for the time being.

Tonight we will be watching Yoshitaka Amano's 1001 Nights and Osamu Tezuka's Metropolis. It shall be a night for the arts! Don't miss it!

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Alright I'm running a little late. I should start the show in like 30 min to an hour depending on traffic. More R.O.D TV and ending Guu Deluxe. See ya then~

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Starting very shortly. I'm actually almost punctual tonight! How about that~

Right! So more R.O.D The TV and starting Guu Final. You didn't think Guu was over yet did you? =E

Hope to see you in the stream~

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I need to catch up on doing archives. Sorry about that, Shorty.

In the meantime I'm totally hating myself right now so we're going to watch Melody of Oblivion which is in my opinion quite possibly the worst anime ever made. Be sure to tune in and suffer with me! I should be starting in 20 minutes. Be there~

Additional Spam:
Starting very soon now. This will truely be terrible. I am so sorry. So sorry that I will only be showing 4 episodes. Perhaps more tomorrow if you feel up the challenge.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

A bus will never be the same. Ever.

Most amazing jew boots

I'm not going to be able to do anime club tonight. I could however do it this afternoon. I know it's not the usual time and a lot of folks might not be able to make it. I can either just not have it today at all or do it sometime this afternoon. What would you guys like me to do?

I was speaking idiomatically.

I talked with lurks and after mulling over details I've decided it best to just take the day off. This works well enough considering there are two broadcasts left for Guu Final and since I won't be doing a broadcast next Thursday (Thanksgiving duuuh) I'd rather not start a new show in slot 2 for a week without a Thursday broadcast.

So schedule should be
This week:
Tuesday: Nothing
Thursday: R.O.D The TV, Guu Final
Weekend: Melody of Oblivion

Next Week:
Tuesday: R.O.D The TV, Guu Final
Thursday: Nothing (it's Thanksgiving)
Weekend: T.B.A.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

TIME TO ZOOOM ZOOOM VROOOOOOOM

show in like 30 min to an hour

WE DOIN THIS THING TONIGHT PREPARE YOUR FACES FOR ANIMATIONS FROM JAPAN

FELIPE NO

OKAY IF YOU WANT HORRIBLE ANIME THEN GET IN THE STREAM NOW

WE DOING 11 EPISODES OF MELODY OF OBLIVION

6 EPISODES, A SHORT BREAK, THEN THE LAST 5

ARE YOU MAN ENOUGH TO HANDLE ALL THE SHIT HEADING YOUR WAY?!

GET IN THE STREAM AND FIND OUT

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

I will try to have a show tonight but I may have other obligations that get in the way though. I'll post in here again if I'm able to broadcast tonight.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Oh, I kind of forgot about today's potential show. I can't even recall what I even wanted to show either. I could possibly do it tomorrow whatever that show might be. SHOW SHOW SHOW SHOW SHOW SHOW SHOW

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Instead of catching up on the archives I have been doing broadcast experiments. They are proving questionable. I have learned things but I am not quite happy with the results. Not yet anyway. The archives will happen eventually. Why do I procrastinate this badly? It is horrible.

Sorry about last week but family, Thanksgiving, and being sick got in the way. I think I've figured out what the next shows will be though. I'll have to draft out a schedule of some sort. Obviously I will have to make considerations for Christmas and New Years whatever day they fall on. Oh looking ahead they appear to both be on Saturdays. So perhaps I will have to move the usual Saturday show to Friday or Sunday or something if I'm not feeling particularly lazy.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Well I've done more testing and I think I'm ready to start doing high quality broadcasts (we're talking great audio/video quality and 30-60 fps, baby!). I'll be ditching livestream in favor of justin.tv.

I'm not entirely happy with this as justin.tv has an annoying logo in the corner but after watching a bunch of stuff it pretty much becomes background noise. Also the archives will not have the justin.tv watermark as that's just something idiotic they put in the embedded player and isn't actually recorded as part of the video you'll see later (whenever I get around to doing any of them - GAH!). Everything else in the player fades away, why they don't make their logo one of them I'll never understand.

Another thing is they have a 15 to 30 second video ad before you start playing. Now with ad-blocker plus with the EasyList (English) subscription in Firefox I've never once gotten an ad. However I also have a justin.tv account so that might be the difference between myself and say packrat who always seems to get them despite his having ad blocker plus.

The other annoyance of the justin.tv embedded player is it does not auto-start so you'll have to press the play button and it always has its volume at half despite my customizations which should work but don't. I don't know why justin.tv has to be such a dick about their embedded player but they are but it works well despite these small grievances.

I originally wanted to host all this on my awesome connection but it would seem I don't really have enough bandwidth to support such an endeavor (I couldn't count on streaming more than say 4 people on my server). Also with livestream gone so are the silly youtube videos that play when I'm not broadcasting live. I could always manually play a few silly clips before and after the show to compensate for this though.

However, change can be good and I look forward to seeing how well this works for you guys. Please let me know if you have any issues with the stream tonight. I'd really like to see as many folks as possible to get a good stress test and of course varied feedback.

Hope to see you tonight as we finish Guu Final and continue our romp through R.O.D TV. I'm currently looking into the future line-up. I'll have more on that later.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I got some interesting results on Tuesday in regards to audio quality. I'll be trying a few more tweaks tonight.

We'll be starting Cromartie High tonight. I believe I'll be watching it in Japanese with English subtitles. I might do an additional screening of the same episodes dubbed in English later for comparison. It does have a good English dub.

Anyway I'll see you guys probably in like 30 min to an hour.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Due to drink-on this Saturday I will not be having a weekend show. However, next weekend I should be able to start a new show that I've been bugged to watch for years. Hopefully it will prove its worth as being as awesome as its been foretold.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Yes, I know you are. =)

Also in the meantime you'll be happy to know that I am encoding broadcasts 44 to 50 for the archives. Hard to believe it's already been that many.

As a note to myself I need to rebroadcast 46, 51, and 52.

FELIPE NO

Alright the episodes I have encoded are available in the archives now. I still have to add the chapter bookmark timing thingies but they're perfectly watchable in the meantime so those who may have been boycotting the show cuz you couldn't catch up here's your catch up in bulk.

How ya doing, buddy?

oh lol hello time i forgot about you

okay i'll be starting the show in like 45 min to an hour

sorry~ see ya soon~

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Attendance was piss-poor on Tuesday. That's partly my fault for starting so late. Well I'm probably gonna start in like an hour tonight. Hope to actually see people stick around for more than 10 percent of it.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I've been meaning to ask. Did they watch any anime besides Baccano? I know they were planning on watching Trapeze but I'm not sure if they did or not. Did they even finish watching Baccano?

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I'd love to know what you're thinking there, pack. Also do you consider 26 episode shows multi-season? I guess you could. I just seem to default that as a one season show for some reason. Bleh.


Anyway we starting Zegapain soon. Just wanted to give people the heads up before I start the stream.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Well from talking around it seems that Tails may have finished Baccano with diss and lurker privately and opted to not mention it anymore in the forums since they are easiest to contact in chat. In that case I will eventually have to run Baccano and possibly Trapeze in the future for more people to enjoy.

In the meantime I've taken a suggestion from Taco. Tonight we will be starting the broadcast of Katanagatari and I think it fills the artsy/interesting slot perfectly. It ran all of this year with one episode released a month - one 50 minute episode with all the high quality trimmings you'd expect with such a release schedule. In any case I'm looking forward to it. As these are 50 minute episodes I will only be showing two episodes of this a night. So look forward to this show for the next three weeks which will bring the 2010 year nicely to a close.

Hope to see you guys in a couple hours for one heck of a show.
