Saw today that few good VNs are on week long sale at steam (ends 20 February), -40-60% off.

Just for example, here are only some to mention:
Clannad -60% , this seems to be highest cut according isthereanydeal.
Muv-Luv -40% , highest cut too.
Nurse Love Addiction -40%
Tomoyo after -50%

Going thru the list, all in Visualarts/Key-catalog are on sale, few in Degica-catalog and various others.

Youtube is Youtube. Uploader doesn't care or Copyright/IP owner doesn't care or just goes under youtube detectors. X-)
Pretty much everything that's going on even in Crunchyroll this winter season is mirrored in youtube, even those "not licensed in your territory"-ones.

As MiKil said if the copyright owners don't have a flagging bot set up they probably aren't bothering to hunt down content, especially if it isn't in one of the main moneymaking languages like english or japanese.

And yeah as said tdubbing quality varies wildly over here, "niche" anime have hopes to get a very close translation as the publishers probably understand that their audience is mostly hardcore weebs, anything "mainstream" on the other hand is almost unwatchable.

Are you talking about those downsized and framed in a certain way? Are any of those Winter ones uncropped, full episodes?

On the topic of VN, the upcoming AOT 3DS game is actually one! Lol...

Some are modified (framed, slowed down etc.) to bypass youtube strike but there are unmodified full episodes too and from ongoing winter season. Uploaders probably do throwaway type of account so if content is flagged, just create new account and upload back.

Heheh! I'd certainly play (watch? read?) that! Really wish I had a 3DS right about now...

I just watched through both seasons of Tokyo Ghoul. It had it's moments but it felt mediocre in many ways. There also was not much of an ending and I am not sure if that had to do with the comics since the comics, according to a quick search, showed that the comic series ended before the show began or that the show began as the comics were concluding.

Overall, it was worth watching despite some blandness since I am already paying a subscription to Funimation.

I didn't mention this back when you said "comic" on your KonoSuba post but you really should stop calling manga "comics", it's akin to calling anime "cartoon". There's a difference.

As for Tokyo Ghoul, the anime is a bit different from its manga. Most would find the manga better and it's still ongoing with Tokyo Ghoul:re.

Someone was recognized by Guinness as the World Record holder for the largest collection of CardCaptor Sakura memorabilia! And no, it's not a guy.

Anyone still remembers Space Battleship Yamato? Here's a peek at its upcoming film, Space Battleship Yamato 2202: Warriors of Love.

Wow, that's certainly impressive. Heheheh, you'd think there'd be less competition in a such a specific category.

Hmm, I've never heard of SBY before, but I think I'll keep this on my radar. But what's with the "Warriors of Love" part? I'm not adverse to things like that, but I have to wonder it's significance. (It may explain why in the trailer, but I can't watch it because my internet is hot garbage right now.)

That is good collection. Spotted even those GB/GBA/PS1/PS2/DC -games in there and CCS-edition Gameboy console. :)

Yamato wasn't one those series that you could watch in 80s here in Finland so I can't say nothing of it. X-)
I do know that most people might know it better as Space Cruiser Yamato (movie) and Star Blazers (series) here in west.

Yamato 2199 might be nice to see, that is the remake of the original series.

It's plot-related but don't worry, it's not that kind of show. ;)

Yeah, really impressive collection there and that Game Boy can be quite pricey nowadays.

What kind of show? :)

I wouldn't mind honestly, I just found the sub-title odd.

What do you guys think of the weird practice of adding scottish accents to usually fantasy characters? I've been reading the Monster Musume manga and it's really bothering me that Lala's lines all read like the drunken slurs of a scotsman. See pic*.

I've heard of this thing before as it's supposed to be really prevalent in [url=http://legendsoflocalization.com/lets-talk-aboot-those-dragon-quest-iv-accents/ ]Dragon's Quest [/url]games but it's the first time I encountered it in the wild and it just baffles me.

I get translating things in "Ye olde Englishe" when a character uses a lot of archaic vocabulary, I also get translating local accents to a foreign equivalent or whatever comes closest. But I don't get why you'd translate someone with a normal speech pattern (as far as chuunibyou goes) and turn it into highlandspeak.

Don't get me wrong I love the scottish accent, but i don't get why. Does anyone know of other examples of Glasgowification?

*From the "I <3 Monstergirls" spin-off where guest artists draw series of lighthearted 4 panel strips, pretty good stuff.

I think that guy has his very own accent
