Doesn't sound too bad. Maybe now we can get some actual titles made and not just fanservice titles. The law isn't gonna bother with moe titles like K-ON.. I am interested in getting an idea of how much violence will be allowed though.

Unfortunately this ban wasn't planned to raise the quality of manga, anime, and games (as if any ban could), it was devised to shut down a part of the industry because the people behind the ban hate the industry for their own personal reasons. So, I wouldn't count on them not bothering with any particular type with a law that has more etcs than explicit descriptions.Originally Posted by Pandadice
If I'm interpreting it right, still doesn't bode well for things like Berserk or Gantz which, even though it's already R-18 stuff over here, will definitely lose sales over in Moonland when they're shoehorned in alongside the porn.

There's so much weird stuff about this event, like the way the gunman accidentally fires a shot into the floor, and the sneak attack by the purse wielding board member, "Ginger".
I love the way one of the hostages tries to lackadaisically dissuade her heroics.
"NO, Ginger...Ginger no...
no...Ginger..."
<@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs
@Xan: I shouldn't be laughing at that incident but it's impossible not to, everything is so ludicrous and surreal.
I don't know whether to be proud of Ginger's feeble attempt or embarrassed for her.
“For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?”
Ginger wanted to be the hero in the news so hard, but failed
I'm surprised at how LITTLE effort she put into it (that, or she is very, very weak). She barely swung that handbag.Ginger wanted to be the hero in the news so hard, but failed

New zodiac signs. What`s yours now? i`m Ophiucus...?

My birthday is August 14, so I'm still a Leo.
I was a Capricorn, but now it says I should really be a Sagittarius.
Great, first new planets, now new zodiacs.
Buff is confused.

As if I'd change libra to, of all things, virgo. Screw you, stupid scientists.
Indeed fuck that, Libra forever.
Screw this - I'll still consider myself Scorpio.

I`m really sorry that everyone that got a tattoo of their sign now has a worthless tattoo, j/k it`s hilarious.

If anyone has been following the train wreck that is Canada's decline into metered internet, here is a witty ad about it.

When it comes to telecommunications, Canada is alot worse than many developing 3rd world countries
I have no idea why you guys are falling backwards like this.. even Australia's been enjoying unlimited plans for about a year now.

Oligopolies suck.
Regulation is good sometimes, but not when it's affecting consumer prices as ridiculous as it is right now.
Isn't regulation meant to help consumers in modern times? Competition laws against cartels and other such means of regulation? Over here it's working adequately in the communications business. Nothing is cheap over here (except a human life, har har), but at least there are no monthly download caps in any normal company's plans. Mobile plans might have some.
However, I wouldn't be surprised if they soon introduced those over here. Finland has been steadily falling for years on the lists of advanced Internet using societies. The ISPs largely stopped development years ago and only reap profits nowadays.
