2025.01.30 22:00 Tarhalindur [Rewatch] [Yuuki Yuuna Franchise Overtime] Yuusha no Shou Episode 4 Discussion

Episode 4: Unspoken Intentions ← Previous Episode | Index | Next Episode →
Show Information: MAL | AniList | ANN | AniDB
(First-timers may want to consider staying out of Show Information until we are done, however.)
Legal Streams: (As per livechart.me (though something may have been bugging when I grabbed it for Yuusha no Shou...); additional legal streams may be available outside the US.)
Hidive | Amazon Prime Video
What about Great Mankai Chapter? Likely coming in late February as a second stage of this rewatch continuation, but I need to be able to confirm continued interest and nail down the schedule before committing.
A Reminder to Rewatchers: I would like to remind you: please do not spoil the experience for our first-timers!
There is one exception to this: As this rewatch is covering prequels/sequels only and all viewers are expected to either have been in YuYuYu proper or have seen the show on their own time and thus be familiar with YuYuYu's plot points, Yuuki Yuuna wa Yuusha de Aru S1 plot points are not considered spoilers in the context of this rewatch and are considered fair game to talk about outside of spoiler tags, just like discussion of S1 plot points would be in episode discussion threads for an airing sequel. (Or in other words, we will be treating YuYuYu spoilers exactly like Mai-HiME spoilers were in Mai-Otome or Madoka Magica plot points were in MagiReco.)
Me: Specifically makes a note to self to remember that there is a short stinger this episode in my notes. Also me: forgets to post about this yesterday because I put it in today's episode notes.

2025.01.30 22:00 No_Rex [Rewatch] 3-episode rule 1960s anime - Astro Boy (episode 1)

Rewatch: 3-episode rule 1960s anime - Astro Boy (episode 1) index
Astro Boy (1963) MAL | ANN | AniDB | Anilist
Production trivia For many of the series in this rewatch, I am not sure how much trivia I will be able to unearth, but Astro Boy is different. You can easily find dozens and dozens of articles about it. It sits at a tri-point of interest: The first standard TV anime, an anime by Osamu Tezuka, and the anime that set the tone for anime production.
Astro Boy was produced by Mushi Production, a studio started by Osamu Tezuka after he had a falling out with Toei Animation, for whom he had previously worked. Tezuka was already a famous mangaka and had disliked giving away control of the adaptations of his manga that Toei was adapting. The adaptation of his manga Atom Boy was the first big production of Mushi Production. It was the first weekly animated TV series in Japan. Famously, Tezaku proposed a production budget that was well below what other studios deemed realistic, thereby creating a precedent for low-paid and overworked animators, a trend that continues today. Tezuka created a style of animation intended to simplify anime production, taking anime away from the more elaborate drawings of earlier works. Astro Boy also used as little as 10 frames per second for some animation, far fewer than earlier anime. In addition, Mushi Production created a large storage of cells, allowing their reuse later.
Astro Boy was an immediate hit, achieving up to 40% market share. It also spawned licensed toys and other products (something well-known to fans of anime, especially mecha). Astro Boy was also sold to NBC, thus starting the trend of anime being not only a domestic product, but an export product and one of Japan’s most successful cultural exports. The series ran successfully for three years and spawned several spin-off and remakes.
Questions

  1. How does Astro Boy’s treatment of robot rights compare to other examples in fiction?
  2. What is your take on the quality of the animation?
  3. What do you think would be a good target age for viewers of this episode?

2025.01.30 22:00 rock1234567891 Battery drain while driving (2021)

Strange issue, I’ve never had a problem with my battery or alternator on my WRX, and I’ve never had to jump it even after it hasn’t been driven in weeks. However, today while driving like usual- I noticed my battery volts drop gradually hitting as low as 10 volts before shooting right up when I put the car in neutral and stopped at a light
Anyone have any experience with this? Is it a battery issue, or alternator?

They work on the test controller section as they are clearly sensed, however in game it doesn’t. The D-pad also jams, and if I tap it while in game it will stay on indefinitely. My controller is a xbox series s (i do not have these issues on xbox). How can I fix this?

2025.01.30 22:00 I-Hate-Comic-Sans Thoughts on Taylor Swift's *alleged* involvement in the NYT smear article?

YouTube link: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=6nwcpGKR7Uo
I was tuning in for Candace's podcast today since she said on her stories she had a big lead involving Taylor Swift.
Candace basically highlights how Taylor's friend and journalist Ronan Farrow was very connected to Megan Twohey who wrote the NYT smear article about Justin. Candace alludes to the fact that Taylor may have helped Blake in getting her smear article published in the New York Times (since Blake doesn't have the connections for that). I think she may be onto something here, and am very curious if TS will end up being subpoenad and if this will ever come out (given how famous and "untouchable" TS is).
Thoughts?
Also, Candace speaks about the Podcaster who Justin Baldoni apparently worked with who ditched him after BL's allegations which was super interesting because I haven't seen anything on this sub or tiktok about that yet.
