Latest KSBD. Because screw you, suddenly dhalsim.

Also apparently descan doesn't know animu very well. Which I guess is okay.

On the other hand, I'm currently of the opinion that the best thing to have came out of the kantai collection is that critter that put Snake in Shimakaze's clothes. That's absolutely wonderful. E: Actually, there's a small set of them apparently done by a critter named ikuyoan. It is amazing.

I don't know animu very well, but then again I actively avoid it. My policy is not to watch anime unless it's recommended by a friend who also doesn't watch anime.

I get AP scores back on the 8th, apnaretly. I'm betting two fives, one four, and one that might be either.

This is the best policy.
I also embrace it.
Then flip three coins to decide if I should watch.
Two heads equals yes.

Kancolle is only recently an anime though. It was a game first. So not really animu.

That means you have a ₃C₂(.5)³ = 37.5% chance of watching a given anime!

The last coin has to land on edge and stay there. 
Kidding.

I just noticed the formula changed between posts.

₃C₁ = ₃C₂ so it doesn't matter

But you didn't factor in whether a given anime has been recommended by an anime-avoiding friend.

The "It's japanese therefore it's bad" mentality sort of annoy me.

Nah, the art style is just very annoying to me, which is why I tend to avoid anime.

I'm calculating the probability for P(A|B) where A is "flip coins and 2 are heads" and B is "an anime has been recommended by an anime-avoiding friend", I think!

[Frumple]

Yeaaahh... avoiding something doesn't necessarily mean you think it's bad, just that you don't like it. And in all fairness, especially for those who haven't be inoculated to the whole anime thing, it can be quite off-putting. Understanding and exposure (can) increase appreciation, but it's definitely something many folks can't just dive into.

And that's alright. *rainbow* more for me, huehuehuehue

It's not a knee-jerk reaction to Japan. The stylistic conventions generally annoy me, so only exceptional ones (that have appeal for people who aren't simply fans of the genre in general) are worth watching for me. The only ones I've seen and liked have been FMA and Death Note. Also, Miyazaki movies, but I think those stand out from the genre somewhat.

Full disclosure, the attitudes and behaviors of a portion of the fanbase does not help with my attitude towards the genre.

Nothing like casually flying around via ninja rope/grappling hook while listening to some Jimi Hendrix on Pandora. Perfect to chill out to.

Floating Point (Free game on Steam), if you're wondering.
