Thank you all for voting in the poll to decide who was going to be the leader of the band! It turned out to be such a close race!

Kaiju Number 8 Incorrect Quotes <take9>

Mina: Hey Kafka! Are you wearing your running bottoms. . . and your hoodie? Reno: Kafka, are you going running? Kafka: . . . *nods* *leaves* Kikoru: Have fun! *Kafka leaves the room* Reno: Oh my god, what is wrong with Kafka right now? Soshiro: Yeah, is he okay? Kikoru: Kafka is going for a run. If anything, we should be asking what is right with him. Mina: Kafka only goes running if he's upset and he's wearing his sad hoodie, and by the looks of it, it's been washed, which is bone chilling. Kikoru: He's fine. Everything's okay. Iharu: I JUST PASSED KAFKA ON THE STREET, RUNNING ON PURPOSE! OH MY GOD!!!! Kikoru: . . . Maybe I was wrong. Iharu: *halfway out a window, shouting* KAFKA! ARE YOU OKAY? Iharu: I SEE YOU! AND I LOVE YOU! Kikoru: In my defense, no one here emotes in a normal way Soshiro: Yeah, that's fair.

love getting my parents to watch my hyperfixations so i can get the opinions of the general audience with a single phone call

the general audience is pleasantly surprised by buck being bi, but dislikes telestrations due to the lack of shown redemption and general shittiness and believes for these reasons that he is not being written to last more than an episode or 2 into s8

slowly easing them into the concept of buddie so i can get the read on the silly little ship that has now fully consumed my soul

i had a really really good idea but for some reason my hq and very cool officially sourced mezmeriser stems are kind of terrifying and its insanely insanely hard to sync the vocals up with anything,,,, i fussed for hours but it couldnt work out so i just had to accept the scuff unfortunately cries...the rest is still pretty good tho!!!!!!!!! i hope it at least gets the point across. may scribble some sort of art to post this to youtube so people can at least enjoy it as a meme

Infodumping (and listening) is a form of love, I think

We are playing fast and loose with the definitions of every word in the title, contestants do not have to be freaky, they can be normal, standard, earthly pets, they do not have to be little, horrible giant monsters are welcome, if you can justify calling them a pet its fine

any creatures that any characters make friends with or look after in some way are welcome, go wild

the only rules (that I probably don't have to explicitly state, but I will anyway) are that

submissions absolutely cannot have a level of intelligence comparable to humans. Animal-like intelligences only. (K9 is the exception to this because he is a robot dog)

should be treated well by the people you are claiming they are pets of, so, for example, you can't have the whale under the thames in Thin Ice

Some items on this list are from stories I have not seen in a while, so potentially won't meet these rules. If that is the case please let me know so I can remove them

Nominations will close 19:15 BST (UTC+1) tomorrow (27/09)

(also when the time comes you will vote Sandy or I will delete this blog and you will never see a companion tournament again for as long as you live (<- this is a joke but please let my beloved sandy do well))

so we can all hear that "no more booze, no more drugs, no more" and "stede" are from two different places? the tone of voice is different and once you only listen to it it's soooo clear

[bmpmp3]

I really love making vocal synth duets and trios and other group songs but there is nothing worse on this earth than attempting to balance the audio levels

Every time I "finish" an AMV, I create a comparison like this.

The left side is the "effectless" draft—minimal transitions, zero coloring, limited text animation—while the right side is the "final" version I post online. It's a way to assess my work; where did the added effort elevate the edit, and where do my eyes find themselves drawn more to the draft because the "final" version is too busy, too overwhelming, too much?

I'm new to video editing. There aren't even 20 AMVs to my name, and I only seriously started a little over a year ago. My process involves a lot of struggling with what a "good" AMV is, a lot of wondering if I'm doing it all wrong—anxieties that were only exacerbated by a popular post that crossed my dash many months ago. It decried AMVs that don't edit with the full song as worthless, bad, garbage. The kids don't know how to do it right.

Not a kid, but maybe they've got a point!

Still, it was a disheartening sentiment to read. And while I might not know much, I think I am confident in knowing this: there are many AMV styles out there, and the shorter ones may certainly not be everyone's cup of tea, but that doesn't mean that they're devoid of love, time, effort, or passion. The video at the top of this post is hardly 30 seconds long, and it still took over 60 hours of spilling out ideas and cutting clips and learning new skills and scrapping new skills and tweaking transitions and coloring and recoloring and shaking my head and giving up and trying again.

Fan vidders, no matter the style they employ, are devoting their free time and energy to create. It'd be ludicrous to suggest that a movie is inherently inferior to a TV series, or a short story automatically meaningless compared to a novel.

The same should absolutely apply to fan videos.

sometimes i'll see a take that's like. i mean technically you're not wrong. but also you've completely stripped this issue off its entire cultural context, so everything you said is irrelevant. you definitely won the argument ig but that won't make any difference in practice sorry
