Way over my head for filthy casual like me, but I get the gist.

I also have OCI instance (it just run wireguard), so what is the proper way of doing this?

Scurrilous by Protest the Hero

It's their turning point, the last album with og line-up. Rody (vocal) taking charge of the lyrics. Simple drum (set up), insane riff, varied theme.

From the futility of suicide, cancer, to record label greed.

I mean I like their newer material even more, but this one special to me.

Yeah, I felt a little tingle when I read the "jab" at Mastodon, I don't even use Mastodon lol.

So is there any more generic "social" apps beside microblogging like Bluesky? The other example there felt too niche to me, I don't even know what I'm looking at.

Is there a Lemmy/Reddit adjacent thing there?

Americans don’t do that. They literally keep track of exactly stuff like xkcd shows

Did they do it with most sports? I only seen it in baseball and american football, probably also basketball huh.

I didn't see Togou's Dad being Buchi's savior coming lol.

Will this ever get another season? I think I need more.

Jih-Roh

Is this the one you mean?

I've watched the rest beside Star Blazers and Code-Geass but not in the moods for full-blown mechs/space opera right now.

There are a lot of suggestions already so if you have any other recs (don't need to be military) of your faves (maybe the under the radar one) throw me some more. I'll watch anything unless it's too gory/body-horror types.

Thanks for the recs !

Code Geass

After all this years I just realize that code-geass is a mech anime lol. Just through osmosis I even know the protag name is Lelouch but Idk what gives this impression I thought the series is old-school Eminence of shadow (also didn't watch this one because I just can't with the cringe).

Muv-Luv: Alternative I just skimmed through the 1st eps, looks decent. Is there a prominent fan-service, what with the whatever the woman pilot suit is wearing? I think I'm getting too old for that kind of trope.

Knights of Sidonia

This looks amazing ! But I think I'll read the manga instead, idk I like the CG animation based on the trailers.

Thanks for the recs !

Is there any particular entry you like that you recommend? the '95 film?

[–] gajahmada@awful.systems 1 points 1 week ago

Gasaraki is a mix of mech, mystical, and military

That looks promising just by the still-shot. Ground-based kinetic warfare is what I'm currently craving kinda bored with the usual space opera. Also found Break Blade the other day, idk how that one's rated but the action looks great.

Grave of the Fireflies

I know this one is coming, but I don't think I'm ready, maybe one day. I think I'll take a look at Area 88 though, I never watch air-unit-based stories (yes, never seen topgun).

Fire Emblem game series

You bet I do ! That also reminds me there's a new Brigandine series coming.

Thanks for the recs !

[–] gajahmada@awful.systems 1 points 1 week ago

Yeah, I don't think it's my jam.

Alderamin, though proper good fun, I'm surprised I missed that one kinda hand-wavy with the power and world building but I like it. We won't get season 2 won't we? Too bad I just can't get into LN.

Also just finished GATE, stoked for the new series even with cast changes.

Sound of the Sky instantly reminds me of The Bugle Call: Song of War. IDK if it will get higher stakes or keep the chill vibe ( just got to ep2). I think I'll finished this one last with next season more chill series.

[–] gajahmada@awful.systems 1 points 1 week ago

Oh, might be an interesting watch. My country is actually one of the Japanese colonies, and yeah I have heard one or two genuine hates from older folks about the imperial atrocities, but I think my generation is already far removed from the feeling, so I don't know how I would react (probably not much lol).

Still weird knowing the US dropping the nuke is what directly "allowed" our independence.

[–] gajahmada@awful.systems 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

You weren't kidding with the colonial propaganda. I genuinely upset of myself cuz I was cheering the JDSF when they rescued Italica lol.

Do you know how long I e wanted to talk about this?

By all means, talk about it even if it's unrelated to my request. I will still read all the replies, but the current recs I'm getting are pretty good, and there's still a lot to get through.

Nippon Sangoku just finished airing, and I'm on the fence whether to continue reading or not. I mainly read and usually didn't watch series I follow cuz it rarely enhances the experience. The show production is top notch, and I'm in a dilemma because on one hand I want more but on the other hand I kinda want to watch season 2 fresh if that ever happen.

 

So, prior to this I'm not usually interested in military theme series, but then I give Tanya a watch, and I'm hooked ! I've also watched the movie.

After that, I remember 86 and also finish those. The last one I've finished was Nippon Sangoku, and now I want more like these. I think it's related, but I also throw Sentenced to be a Hero having same vibe, though it's more focus on individual and has much more fantasy flavor setting-wise.

I don't really care about the interpersonal between the character, I think I just enjoy the campaign/battle theater and the logistic side of the war.

Please throw me some of yours recs ! Thanks

Edit: Still reading the recs you guys give, thanks a lot. But for some more context I've watched most of Gundam entries and the usual suspects for space opera so it's already on my radar. But then again maybe other find it helpful, so I don't mind.
