Well, to please the old-timers, in addition to the new anime and games coverage and wacky Japan and greater East-Asia news stories you’re – thank Haruhi – still doing now, you’d have to do artist introductions (hard, I know, there aren’t as much new artists as prolific as the already established ones this particular topic [...]

Now now, I know SanCon has changed a lot during its almost 5 years of existence (and in many ways for the worse), but stuff like this was always among the core topics it was covering from the very beginning.

Are you fucking insane?!

A simple search of
レーザー OR laser タトゥー OR 刺青

yielded a myriad of clinic homepages offering the treatment, and among others things, these videos:

Shitty propaganda indeed.

“All this is totally unexpected.”

…

Yet I haven’t encountered/noticed/pointed out to me a single instance of SC knowingly reporting false or deliberately misleading information, let alone trying to manipulate its readers’ opinions to further Artefact’s political agenda. It’s tabloid-esque for sure, but likening SanCon to the likes of BILD is unjust.

I sure hope your not including Gunbuster in your + list was simply by mistake. Never has doppler-shift been animated more beautifully! (The whole series is great and could easily fit in amongst classic 70s/80s Hard-SF literature like Ender’s Game and Forever War)

The country with the highest population density is still Bangladesh…

@07:45 Flawless means “exactly the way it should be, and not deviating from it even for a tiny little bit”. You can very much categorize the complete absence of natural skin features that have nothing to do with aging or other degradation as a flaw. And the definition of “exactly the way it should be” can [...]

The figure is based on a Yamashita Shunya illustration, you’ll have to blame him.

Well, the Star-Wars flight suits came way earlier, so…

A bruise disappears after a short time (one as minor as that at any rate), a few (or in this case, one) mole is hardly an imperfection, and neither are veins on boobs (which aren’t even remotely as clearly pronounced on hers as they usually are on breasts this size). A body lacking such natural features [...]

Rather than a confession, it’s more likely a typo.

Not at all. Demonbane easily passes as mainstream mecha sans the ero. The VN is also officially available in English for some time now. I’d put links to some of the past SanCon articles on the English release, but for some reason the spam protection won’t let me. Just enter “demonbane” in the search bar [...]

You don’t normally shoot at people in Kyudo nowadays.

For her privacy I guess. Seems like it didn’t help in the end though…

I have a growing suspicion that people confuse squinted with narrow/slitted. Look at the shape, not at the distance between upper and lower lid. When I say “squinted”, I mean that your upper lid looks wrinkled and trims the roundness from the upper shape of your eyes. Asian eyes may be much more narrow in average [...]

I’m pretty sure their eyes look the same with or without makeup. I’ve seen one of the female students without, and the teacher never seems to wear that many makeup. (I’m also pretty sure the dude doesn’t put any on…). I never claimed evidence though. Even I know that the sample is too small and [...]

Well, of the 3 Japanese language teachers at my university (all female) and 3 female Japanese exchange students, all of the exchange students and one of the teachers can be considered having eyes less squinted than the average Caucasian, same can be said of one of the two male exchange students… I’ll leave deciding how [...]

Have fun waiting another 6 to 7 years… not that it wouldn’t be already possible (if you get yourself a PowerXCell accelerator card, that is), but no one has even started coding one yet.
