    Since the so-called "normal" person is in fact a statistical average, any actual person to meet those specific criteria perfectly would by definition be "abnormal".

    Such is the paradox of mundanity. Just ask the poor family with exactly 2.5 children...

    Wise ruler indeed.

    Ah. I was focused on Fate's version of Solomon so I didn't make that connection at all. Pretty damn funny.

    Been reading How to Open a Triangular Riceball, but the translation group is very... lax... on updating it. It's completed too, as of the middle of last year. Shame, really. It's pretty alright. The Korean title is 삼각김밥을 까는 법.

    I'm six episodes into My Hero Academia, and I am loving every second of it.

    After wading through so much terrible "battle school" shounen, it's refreshing to find one with some charm.

    Also watching the UBW dub

    Rin is slowly growing on me. Maybe Mela Lee has better direction this time or has grown as a voice actress.

    I'm still not big on Papenbrook's Shirou or Tang's Archer. Tang sounds like he's reading from the page. What a pity that 2/3 of the main characters do nothing for me. At least all of the supporting characters have great actors attached to them. Rider made a pretty great impression with very little screen time. I'll like to hear her with more substantial things to say.

    Edit: The translation is a little wonky, though. "New City" and "Gundo" instead of "Shinto" and "Gandr"

    Wut?

    It was strange at first, but I got used to it.

    Yes, I'm aware that Shinto means new city. I'm just weab enough to have picked up a few bits and pieces, and the context of Shinto being the new part of the city made it clear even if I hadn't picked anything up.

    It's a little funny to think the professional translation teams didn't realize that Shinto sounds less awkward than "New City."

    Yuri on Ice is great. It's the kind of great that makes you want to marathon it, it's JJ kind of great.

    I only realized Mitsurou Kubo was involved when I saw the drunk Yuri dance off galleries, lol. My mind went "Wait, this art style is...Damnnnnn"

    Also pleasantly surprised at Oda Nobunari casting as himself (he volunteered for it, in fact!).
