@dmcmaster I think this video's a good example of the difference.

clearly inspired by the animation but it isn't just traced or 1:1 the same, and more importantly once you add context (the show this OP is from is partially based on the student lives of the people that went on to form Gainax, the animation studio behind most if not all these animations) it's clear they're paying homage.
More importantly once you start "homaging" a bunch of random student films that most people have never heard of you kinda lose your ability to justify it with that pretense. I mean it is possible to be referencing them innocently, but nobody "references" a dozen of them frame by frame like that.

@inflorescence It's probably one of those things where someone noticed one of the two most popular bits (SU and FLCL) and then it just kinda snowballed as it always does because plagiarists don't just plagiarize once.

@thedemonpirate oof

Picked up Crash Team Racing in the Switch sale going on at the moment. It's pretty fun, but also requires some insanely tight turns at times. I'm sure I'll enjoy it more once I get a good handle on turns/boosting though.

Game streaming will never be viable and I don't know why people keep falling for it when companies try to force it.

I thought Omega Labyrinth Life was pretty decent, if you were curious and don't have a Switch it's coming to PC soon.

I'm sure it'll be good for what it is, but frankly I've never seen VR as anything other than a fad. I'm hard pressed to buy $300 consoles until it has a solid library, no way I'm spending a grand for one "might be cool" title.

It's probably just because I started playing TF2 right around the same time the first Halloween update came out but Harvest will always be my favorite map in that game.

Having an awards show for a year that hasn't even ended is stupid and as much as I love it Smash Ultimate shouldn't be eligible because it's not a 2019 game.

worth noting this seems to be a Roku problem rather than a Pokemon one since I think I read elsewhere Diablo III caused a similar issue in the past but still, how does that even happen
