Hi everybody! It’s Monday! I know you are all as excited as I am for the week’s new general thread. Like usual, feel free to use this thread for general discussion topics/questions/recommendations/etc. I often like to provide some jokey example prompts here, but, this week I wanted to do a bit of a public service and help all of you out with some hot tips on merch:
- Did your SO get you a hot new Penguindrum watch for Valentine’s Day and you are looking for something to get them for White Day?
- Well, I have just the thing for you. So, fire up that computer and make it run as fast as possible with this hot Initial D Mouse to place a pre-order for:
- Some chic Precure themed bags to hit the town with.
As always, remember to be mindful of spoilers. If you want to know more about how to handle spoilers in this community, check the guide here (also linked in the sidebar).
Block me if you do not want to see future episode discussion posts.
Glad to have you aboard rikka!
I’d like to hear how you were named, for lore purposes.
Basically, the history of these discussion bots goes all the way back to the before times…to reddit. The account that posts discussion threads over there now is called AutoLovePon, but was originally called Holo, after the Spice and Wolf character. The repo on github is still called holo. When @chaorace@lemmy.sdf.org made a fork of holo for use with lemmy, they followed the precedent of naming the bot after a character in a favorite series. As they are a Bakemonogatari fan, shinobu was born. Now, following the tradition, @wjs018@ani.social chose a character from one of his favorite series, Rikka from Love, Chunibyo & Other Delusions.
