I am currently rewatching some AVGN, but on nico with jap subs. Because I like when the screen fills up with “eeeeeeee”, “wwwwwww” and “na--------do”.
Even though I only understand like 1%, I just like the concept of the flying comments. How does that work anyway? Is it moderated somehow, or is it just a free for all?
AVGN seems pretty popular, with 20k - 100k views per ep.

AFAIK, it is not moderated really. Bad comments/trolls probably don’t show up as much as something like the average YT comment dropping N-bombs.

Japan trolls way less than America on sites like Nico so it doesn’t really need to be modded. It’s funny cause if you go to the Intl. nico site, they did include censoring lol

Haha, AVGN on nico sounds fun. I sometimes go on there to watch stuff I’ve already seen in English with the comments myself.

Yeah, exactly! It’s fun to see how a different culture reacts to stuff.
Also it kinda feels like you’re watching a livestream in a way.

Spirit_Juice:

the average YT comment

Oh gawd, imagine YT with a system like this. The horror! o_o

I am also amazed that they don’t spam different colors on the text, even though color seems possible but rare. But maybe it’s limited somehow I dunno. All I know is, you give that tech to western internet and that video will be a double rainbow of petty flamewars and shit lol.

I also noticed there was jap sub MLP…

They’re in the works of an English version of Nico… I can just imagine the comments being filled with “NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER” and random stupid 4chan and Internet memes.

Because there’s no reason to really. The only time I see people use color is to really make the message stick out, or for subtitles, or for some coordinated effort.

Really cool use of comment options: http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm13911449

Apparently the uploaders have some ability to control the overall patterns of comments in their videos

Well, as I already said, there already is censoring on niconico.

As I mentioned earlier in the thread, I watched Uta Prince with the comments on and it was fucking hilarious. http://video.niconico.com/watch/1310696640

kkslider · 2011-07-19T06:02:37.000Z

I heard good things about uta no prince…but it looks hardcore shoujo harem.

That is exactly what it is, and that is exactly why watching it with comments is hilarious lol

Finished G Gundam. It’s cornball and hilarious. Great parody of mech shows and Dragon Ball-esque crap.

I come in here and reccomend only two anime’s.

Air Gear and Deadman Wonderland.

Deadman was rated top manga of (last month?) (This?) idk. But that and the Air Gear manga’s are VERY good. But it wasn’t untill after watching both Anime’s (Which are still new and going… well not AG. DW is newer lol) I would reccomend watching these anime’s, then if interested read the much better more hyped manga.

Bai~~

Stabby · 2011-07-19T11:19:20.000Z

I was sad when I saw that the latest HxH volume only sold 68k in its first week of release.

Then it turned out that was the week before its release, and those were just preorders, and then it sold another 550k. I <3 you hxh

Who fucking knows, the entire last arc was completely anime original. But then even the manga is going off the deep end lol

First off, Blood+ was even worse, it was incredibly long for no reason, the action and animation was way worse, and shit we don’t even know what’s going on in Blood C yet because it’s only been 2 episodes.
