I know some people are waiting for pre-orders to come out in English, and they won’t if you want the list price (but if you want to buy GoodsRepublic pre-order that’s over 300 dollars I’m not stopping you).
The hoodie is a limited time item released only by geestore and cospa which are japanese sites, that only ship to Japan.
But Skitty, you cry out, how do you already have your preorder placed then???
Well my good friends, I sucked up my anxiety and learned to use a proxy.
VRAINS Mystery Masterpost (Part 1: Episodes 1-14). Note that each masterpost will be listed on my page here so that way people can find them easier later down the road.
So I was bored and I figured that I’d rewatch VRAINS and note anything of interest that has yet to be explained by the show itself. While I was doing that, I thought about putting together a master list of mysteries and questions I had with the show while we’re still in the early stages.
The reason for doing this is to try and see what the VRAINS plot solves and what gets missed out on. I want to see how in-depth the show goes with answering our questions as well as wanting to see, later on, when everything appeared and how it all connects.
Granted, I probably missed a few questions here and there so if there’s a question someone has that hasn’t been answered by the show yet, send me a message and I’ll add it here!
I’m going to organize these as best as I can on an episode by episode basis. I’ll also add in references to quotes or actions of the cast as well as the episode numbers that the question first arises from. Any evidence supporting a question will also be quoted. When a mystery is solved, it will be crossed out and have the episode number that it was solved in written alongside it in the masterpost assigned to it.
I will also make a masterpost of (new) questions every ten episodes (so, when the show hits episode 20, 30, etc. I’m including ep 1-14 bc that’s where we’re at currently) so as to keep up with any new mysteries that appear. Questions mentioned in previous masterposts will not be re-brought up due to the fact that there are already quite a lot of questions the fandom needs answered and I prefer to split up the different questions and mysteries by each section of masterposts.
Okay, now, moving on, for the mysteries we have so far they are:
THAT FIRST SITE IS EVERY WRITER’S DREAM DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY TIMES I’VE TRIED WRITING SOMETHING AND THOUGHT GOD DAMN IS THERE A SPECIFIC WORD FOR WHAT I’M USING TWO SENTENCES TO DESCRIBE AND JUST GETTING A BUNCH OF SHIT GOOGLE RESULTS
Anyone have that Google Docs link to a writeup of how differently the Toei series and DM adapted the manga handy? Like, it mentioned which chapters were in which episode, what differences there were, etc. Asking for a friend…
30. What does Yugioh mean to you? (Personally, how does it connect to your life? Was there a time where it helped you? Changed the way you looked at things? Did it form a friendship? A relationship?)
Please note that the purpose of this challenge is to circulate positivity in the fandom. Please avoid comparing them to one another, and try to look for things you appreciate about yugioh in general. There is no set pace or rules for this challenge, so go crazy guys!
I know this is the most minute detail but like… the scene in ep 41 made me think that Reiji would have a burn mark on his right wrist from the device exploding.
And then… I was super sad that the canon said lol no till I realized… it on the wrong wrist as well it on his shirt. Which makes it inconsistent and an animation error.
So as far as I’m concerned, the first is still correct and my headcanon is still on point.
@kaiowut99 because visual examples are nice, I opened this in Photoshop real quick and added noise + blur like I was finishing up editing it myself
it didn’t really make it match better because in this case the noise + blur were also applied to the background, but hopefully it gives you some idea?
Like most of what I do in Photoshop I just kind of throw random shit at the canvas and see what sticks, but generally I use Add Noise set to a very low amount, with uniform distribution and the monochromatic box ticked,and then apply a very slight gaussian blur.
It’s kind of weird to try and intentionally add compression artifacts to something but I do think it helps edits blend in when you’re working with less than pristine video. If you had nice Blu-ray rips to work with I don’t think any of this would be necessary, but with DVD quality it helps.
(as for the actual edits you want from me, I’ll get them done tonight or tomorrow morning!)
lol Don’t worry about rambling, I like having the details!
Yeah, it totally helped; I applied your settings to the text layer and got these; the noise/blur’d one should be the one on top, lol. You’re right, it’s definitely very subtle, but it does look a bit more blended in, so I’ll be sure to do the same for other text tweaks like this. What does the monochromatic box do for it?
Yeah, especially since there’s a low amount of compression artifacts around already; I would love it if GX got a blu-ray release to make all these easier haha. (Sounds good, thanks again! I’ll start on the script meanwhile, lol.)
