| 00:55 | < Rex> | All I've gathered from this non sequitur mess of a movie is that people are made of orange marmalade, Shinji is gay and that the entire 24 episode series was pointless. |
| 00:56 | < locas> | gay for space angel boy hotness |
| 00:57 | < locas> | who wouldn't be |
| 00:57 | < locas> | but yeah that's about right |
| 00:57 | < locas> | the marmalade bit at the very least |
| 00:57 | < locas> | also known as LCL |
| 00:57 | < Rex> | That movie made me feel like a drunk guy chasing cats in a football stadium. Where the cats are ideas and I'm too inebriated to understand them. |
| 01:07 | < locas> | what are you going to do next |
| 01:08 | < locas> | I'm in the middle of so many long anime |
| 01:08 | < locas> | it's dumb |
| 01:08 | < Rex> | I kind of feel like I need a drink. |
| 01:08 | < locas> | that's what it wants you to do |
| 01:10 | < Rex> | Eh... |
| 01:10 | < Rex> | I kind of want to just watch Little Witch Academia. |
| 01:11 | < Rex> | That movie cooked my noodle pretty hard. |
| 01:11 | < Rex> | Just one non sequitur after the next. |
| 01:12 | < Rex> | Now I understand the LSD thing. |

| 09:30 | < Rex> | Why does everyone assume I built something, know the parts, or if it's supposed to be some random ass thing like some silly Kamen rider nonsense? |
| 09:32 | < Ced23Ric> | Because people don't into image names. |
| 09:33 | < Ced23Ric> | I tried it with my "by_nameofthebuilder" |
| 09:33 | < Ced23Ric> | And the clue was not strong enough. |
| 09:33 | < Ced23Ric> | So I usually just explain when I can. |
| 09:36 | < Rex> | I remember that one. |
| 09:36 | < Ced23Ric> | Just keep calm and build robbits. |
| 09:37 | < Rex> | I'm trying to play XCOM here, Mexico is losing their shit, I don't have time for silly Kamen Rider questions. |
| 09:38 | < Ced23Ric> | Fucking Mexico be all like "WHY DOES NO ONE SAVE US!?" while Europe has the better funding and you are all like "If I save your sorry asses now, the world will die for it later. Sorry, Mexico." |
| 09:38 | < Rex> | I need to snag a Sectoid or floater to interrogate for the research credit. |
| 09:39 | < Rex> | I absolutely need some new equipment before I run into Mutons. |
| 09:40 | < Rex> | These conversations that I can't skip and I'm forced to sit there and listen are the worst. |
| 09:41 | < Ced23Ric> | Goddamn muttons. |
| 09:41 | < Ced23Ric> | I used to MC them as soon as I had it. |
| 09:41 | < Rex> | I dunno, I like mutton. |
| 09:41 | < Ced23Ric> | Shoot them to bits, MC, then make 'em charge, draw fire and drop their grenade. |
| 09:41 | < Rex> | Those Mutons tho... |
| 09:42 | < Ced23Ric> | I posted a little reply there. |
| 09:42 | < Ced23Ric> | And managed to find three variants of "robot". Which makes me happy. |
| 09:42 | < Rex> | Danke |
| 09:44 | < Rex> | Heh, I have that pirate frame someone made way back. |
| 09:45 | < Ced23Ric> | I think Zero did that one. |
| 09:46 | < Rex> | I don't see him around much. |
| 09:46 | < Rex> | Also; I'm planning on MECHPUNCHing those fucking Mutons and shoving their OP grenades up their ass. |
| 09:49 | < Ced23Ric> | Alright, Artillery Frame done. |
| 09:49 | < Ced23Ric> | Channeling a nice catepult vibe there. |
| 09:53 | < Rex> | Ooh? |
| 09:53 | < Ced23Ric> | Well, that olive/black/grey dude? |
| 09:53 | < Ced23Ric> | I replaced the arms with a 1x3 brick. |
| 09:53 | < Ced23Ric> | *2x3 |
| 09:53 | < Ced23Ric> | Makes for 6 tubes. Stuff some in the middle, maes for 8. |
| 09:53 | < Ced23Ric> | So a total of 16 tubes. |
| 09:54 | < Ced23Ric> | Anyway, gotta go, work! |
| 09:54 | < Rex> | Unf |
| 09:54 | < Rex> | Catapult is sexy. |
| 09:54 | < Rex> | Peace outtie. |

| 18:41 | < Mantisking> | Hello? |
| 18:47 | < Rex> | Heyo |
| 18:48 | < Rex> | So, I noticed something earlier, Locas. |
| 18:48 | < locas> | ? |
| 18:49 | < Rex> | Those... |
| 18:50 | < Rex> | I dunno what to call them, those mass produced Evas, they looked familiar. |
| 18:50 | < Rex> | http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20131206021635/monstermovies/images/b/bb/Sand worm.jpg |
| 18:50 | < Rex> | It's actually rather uncanny. |
| 18:51 | < locas> | heh\ |
| 18:52 | < Rex> | Their mouths are exactly the same and they're vaguely stripey with their ribbed chest. |
| 19:23 | < Rex> | Maybe it's just me. |
| 19:23 | < locas> | it's pretty striking |
| 19:23 | < locas> | I ended up reading the eva wiki for like half an hour thanks to you |
| 19:24 | < Rex> | You're welcome? |
| 19:24 | < locas> | I only have one volume of five star stories left :( |
| 19:24 | < mraichelson> | buried under geofront |
| 19:24 | < locas> | turns out I really enjoyed it |
| 19:24 | < Rex> | http://s1279.photobucket.com/user/Tango_Sierra/media/Uncanny_zpsf9f669dc.png.htm l?sort=3&o=0 I mean...Someone was a Time Burton fan, I'd say. |
| 19:25 | < Rex> | I tried finding it on the manga side of my anime site. No luck. |
| 19:26 | < Rex> | I'm going to look it up once I have enough continuous time to just sit down and read. |
| 19:27 | < locas> | oh, fss you mean |
| 19:27 | < locas> | http://bakabt.me/146240-the-five-star-stories.html |
| 19:27 | < locas> | that's where I got it |
| 19:27 | < locas> | and the link to volume 27 is in the comments |
| 19:28 | < locas> | Soren used to talk about doing an mf0 version of it |
| 19:28 | < locas> | I wonder if he's still fond of the idea |
| 19:28 | < locas> | I'd be down |
| 19:29 | | Mantisking [NSwebIRC@Nightstar-3lq4g4.fios.verizon.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 121 seconds] |
| 19:31 | < Rex> | From what I've seen, they look as awesome as they look hard to brick. |
| 19:33 | < locas> | he's a wizard, though |
| 19:33 | < locas> | but yeah |
| 19:33 | < locas> | they don't lend themselves to 7p scale like fatties and scope dogs, that's for sure |
| 19:33 | < locas> | well it'd probably be like 4p scale |
| 19:34 | < locas> | but the same size |
| 19:34 | < Rex> | Well, yeah. |
| 19:36 | < Rex> | I'm honestly digging how they seem to all have high heels. |
| 19:36 | < locas> | that even comes up in a fight |
| 19:46 | < Rex> | So I finished the anime series I was watching last night. |
| 19:46 | < Rex> | Any suggestions on new ones? |
| 19:46 | < locas> | I just asked for suggestions in another channel :P |
| 19:46 | < locas> | um |
| 19:46 | < locas> | have you seen gundam >_? |
| 19:46 | < locas> | have I already asked |
| 19:47 | < Rex> | I've seen a few. |
| 19:47 | < Rex> | Non mecha is fine. |
| 19:48 | < locas> | have you seen the original gundam I mean |
| 19:48 | < locas> | either the series or the movies it was recut into |
| 19:48 | < locas> | (the movies are better) |
| 19:48 | < Rex> | With the Sailor Moon reboot premier coming up in a few days I'm honestly thinking about watching the original show again. |
| 19:48 | < locas> | hm |
| 19:48 | < locas> | yeah I thought about that recently too |
| 19:49 | < locas> | I didn't know there was a reboot, though |
| 19:49 | < locas> | I think I'd read the manga actually |
| 19:49 | < shadowclasper> | is there a link to the scans of The FIve Star Stories online? |
| 19:49 | < Rex> | Mobile Suit Gundam? |
| 19:49 | < locas> | Mobile Suit Gundam, yeah |
| 19:49 | < locas> | shadowclasper, http://bakabt.me/146240-the-five-star-stories.html |
| 19:49 | < shadowclasper> | thanks :) |
| 19:49 | < Rex> | I thought the plot was terrible in those. |
| 19:49 | < shadowclasper> | no I meant |
| 19:49 | < shadowclasper> | online |
| 19:50 | < shadowclasper> | I found it though |
| 19:50 | < shadowclasper> | http://www.mangago.com/read-manga/the_five_star_stories/tr/104808/page/3/ |
| 19:50 | | * locas is confused |
| 19:50 | < locas> | torrents are online -_- |
| 19:50 | < locas> | but I guess I see what you mean |
| 19:50 | < locas> | hosted |
| 19:50 | < locas> | for viewing |
| 19:50 | < locas> | Rex, gasp |
| 19:50 | < locas> | YOU'RE terrible |
| 19:51 | < locas> | the plot certainly meanders in the series |
| 19:51 | < locas> | that's why the movies are better |
| 19:51 | < locas> | fixes all the pacing issues |
| 19:51 | < locas> | but anyway um |
| 19:51 | < locas> | PRINCESS JELLYFISH |
| 19:51 | < locas> | I assume you've seen ghost in the shell stand alone complex |
| 19:52 | < Rex> | That's what I heard. I mean, I only trust that SO FAR, but...that's the one with mobile suits straddling rockets? |
| 19:52 | < locas> | what |
| 19:52 | < locas> | I can't think of ANYTHING where mobile suits straddle rockets |
| 19:53 | < Rex> | I'm as much not a fan of GitS as I was of Evangelion. Granted, my impressions of Evangelion were from the last few episodes... |
| 19:53 | < locas> | you're a tough cookie |
| 19:53 | < locas> | what kind of stuff DO you like? |
| 19:53 | < locas> | also what rocket straddling |
| 19:53 | < locas> | I must know |
| 19:53 | < Rex> | I really liked the manga though...so I'll pick it up later and hope I like that half of it is political stuff. |
| 19:54 | < Rex> | http://jphinano.files.wordpress.com/2011/05/this-is-the-best-plan-ever.jpg |
| 19:54 | < locas> | hm |
| 19:54 | < locas> | I have no idea |
| 19:54 | < locas> | I have seen that image before though |
| 19:54 | < locas> | but it's certainly not in the movies if it is even from first gundam |
| 19:55 | < locas> | that looks more like it'd be from g gundam |
| 19:55 | < locas> | if that mobile suit in the foreground wasn't so obviously the rx-78 |
| 19:56 | < Rex> | While I absolutely love older anime, I kind of have my hands full with Patlabor and AT VOTOMS. They're kind of hard to watch more than one episode at a time. |
| 19:56 | < locas> | yeah |
| 19:56 | < locas> | it took me like a year to finish votoms for that reason |
| 19:56 | < locas> | same with legend of galactic heroes, I'm not even half way done with that |
| 19:56 | < Rex> | But yeah, I've watched a bit of Gundam. |
| 19:56 | < locas> | I'm not very knowledgeable about new anime really |
| 19:56 | < locas> | you've already seen outlaw star I think |
| 19:57 | < Rex> | Yes. |
| 19:57 | < Rex> | I'm kicking myself right now for putting anime off for a decade. |
| 19:57 | < locas> | I think that image is definitely from G gundam |
| 19:57 | < locas> | which is the stupidest gundam |
| 19:58 | < locas> | and not at all like any of the others |
| 19:58 | < locas> | all the rest of them have less spandex |
| 19:58 | < locas> | and are more serious space opera offerings |
| 19:58 | < locas> | as opposed to giant robo |
| 19:58 | < locas> | +t |
| 19:58 | < locas> | (giant robo is good) |
| 19:59 | < Rex> | Oh, this is the one with Char? |
| 19:59 | < locas> | the first one, yeah |
| 19:59 | < locas> | CHAR |
| 19:59 | < locas> | CHAAAR |
| 19:59 | < locas> | char |
| 19:59 | < locas> | char is in a lot of them |
| 19:59 | < locas> | featured heavily in Zeta, which is also excellent |
| 19:59 | < locas> | no gundam is as good as the first one, though |
| 19:59 | < locas> | in my opinion |
| 20:00 | < locas> | it was never that "real" again |
| 20:00 | < Rex> | Oh |
| 20:02 | < Rex> | I'll add it to my list. |
| 20:03 | < Rex> | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v9Ft3viBgtQ I don't think it's normal for a straight male to unironically like these things. |
| 20:04 | < locas> | not being straight or male, I really can't say |
| 20:04 | < locas> | cool that it's getting a reboot though |
| 20:04 | < Rex> | Fuck da rules, I say. |
| 20:05 | < locas> | I agree |
| 20:08 | | Mantisking [NSwebIRC@Nightstar-3lq4g4.fios.verizon.net] has joined #mf0 |
| 20:10 | < Rex> | I think I'm digging my grave with this next lineup. |
| 20:10 | < locas> | what's in it |
| 20:13 | < Rex> | Well, I like to watch several at a time and do circuits, I guess. One episode of one, then the next series, then the next. |
| 20:14 | < Rex> | My list right now is Escaflowne, Fullmetal Alchemist, D.Gray-Man, Digimon, Sailor Moon, and IGPX. |
| 20:15 | < Rex> | Gotta narrow that down a bit. |
| 20:16 | < locas> | I've been thinking about showing my partner fma:brotherhood |
| 20:16 | < locas> | he's only seen the old one |
| 20:16 | < locas> | but it's so long |
| 20:16 | < locas> | maybe we'll start in the middle |
| 20:17 | < Rex> | Is it better than the first one? |
| 20:17 | < locas> | it's just faithful to the manga |
| 20:17 | < locas> | as opposed to making radical changes |
| 20:17 | < locas> | it diverges about halfway and after it's really not even comparable |
| 20:17 | < locas> | but I guess I'd say I liked it better |
| 20:17 | < Rex> | I saw the original many years ago. |
| 20:17 | < locas> | it certainly makes more sense. |
| 20:18 | < Rex> | I'm going to shoot for 2 older and 2 newer I think. That's easy. |
| 20:19 | < Rex> | Did you by chance have a an Ape Tank breakdown lying around somewhere? |
| 20:20 | < locas> | I don't, sadly |
| 20:20 | < locas> | but I can help you with it |
| 20:20 | < locas> | I don't have any left assembled or I'd give you a breakdown |
| 20:20 | < Rex> | All of those connections are super weird. |
| 20:20 | < locas> | well the arm is just how it looks |
| 20:20 | < locas> | a claw bar goes in the back of the headlight |
| 20:21 | < Rex> | Like, the arm is a leg...attached at the shoulder by a hand? |
| 20:21 | < locas> | minifig leg, minifig hand in hip hole |
| 20:21 | < locas> | attached to a tap |
| 20:21 | < locas> | the central core is, I believe, a motor with jumpers on the sides and on the top |
| 20:21 | < locas> | I'm fuzzy on the abdominal area |
| 20:21 | < locas> | let me think about it |
| 20:23 | < locas> | hm, okay so I think it's just some number of 1x2 plates on the bottom of the motor |
| 20:23 | < locas> | with a travis brick as the hips, obviously |
| 20:23 | < locas> | the front is a uh |
| 20:23 | < locas> | ...that 1x2 tile with the elevated bar |
| 20:23 | < locas> | I dunno what it's called |
| 20:23 | < locas> | same chest as a rumble monkey |
| 20:23 | < locas> | with a 1x2 bar plate in front of that |
| 20:23 | < locas> | well...behind that |
| 20:23 | < locas> | for the minifig arms on the chest to attach to |
| 20:24 | < locas> | there's a 1x2 plate on the front of the travis brick, with a cheese slope on the top stud |
| 20:24 | < locas> | and just plain chub legs |
| 20:26 | < locas> | the central motor might have a 1x2 plate on both sides and/or the top |
| 20:27 | < locas> | before the jumpers that make the shoulder and the neck connections |
| 20:27 | < locas> | I can't tell by eyeballing but just mess with it until the spacing looks right |
| 20:28 | < Rex> | hm |
| 20:30 | | Mantisking [NSwebIRC@Nightstar-3lq4g4.fios.verizon.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 121 seconds] |
| 20:30 | < Rex> | Well there's no way LDD will be cool with this so I'll have to see if I have the parts in my bin. |
| 20:31 | < locas> | yeah I doubt it will cooperate with the minifig hand in leg trick |
| 20:31 | < locas> | ape tanks are something I'd like to make again, but have real color blocking |
| 20:31 | < locas> | I was forced to break them up with black and light bley in a kind of ugly way |
| 20:32 | < locas> | that's the main reason they didn't stick around |
| 20:32 | < Rex> | It looks like I should have everything save for the taps. |
| 20:32 | < Rex> | I thought thet ooked really good. |
| 20:33 | < locas> | my thoughts about color blocking have just changed |
| 20:33 | < locas> | I like big areas of a solid color |
| 20:33 | < mraichelson> | all colors, all the time? |
| 20:33 | < locas> | and they have a lot of different details in different colors |
| 20:33 | < locas> | ALL COLORS |
| 20:33 | < locas> | ALL THE TIME. |
| 20:35 | < Rex> | I'm only seeing one color and different shades from light bley to black. |
| 20:36 | < locas> | but the BLOCKING |
| 20:37 | < locas> | like I would prefer it if the entire torso was black |
| 20:37 | < locas> | and the limbs were all light bley |
