Yeah.  My issue is just that cards require more of an investment.  I usually only want to go in and play a game or two, so loading a card isn't really worthwhile to me.

Besides, haven't video game cabinets been built to prevent the use of slugs since the 80s?

I did notice that one of the options available was to buy a two or three hour pass that gave you unlimited credits for the duration.

I do. As do those who come to buy potatoes and carrots from my workplace (we don't have a card reader anyway).
You know what they say, don't you? About how us MechWarriors are the modern knights errant, how warfare has become civilized now that we have to abide by conventions and rules of war. Don't believe it.

For the most part I loathe humanity's reliance on technology. It'll be a nightmare if/when it all comes crashing down.

That's a fascinating topic, but not really relevant to anime.

Back on topic, I gave Bofuri a try.  I was surprised by how much I've enjoyed it.  It's nice to see such a show with a protagonist who's a nice person and not all broody or arrogant, yet also isn't an extreme doormat.

How far in are you? I love reading the comments that scroll by during and/or after the show. Really funny. Annoying though how quickly they scroll by.

I'm caught up with it.  And yeah, the comments should have been played at half speed.

Sound of the Sky (Soranowoto) is another one. Main characters have lostech mecha with superconductors and stuff, and they are struggling to acquire right glass lens for it. BattleTech a good number of moments like that: when WoBbies turn their Jihad to high gear, Hammerhands march once more.

The anime's ending for that one was kinda sweet and almost hope filled.  The manga one the other hand...  damn.  :'(

Well, compared to the Manga it sure is. I mean, they still have a goal and an adventure ahead of them. You're not hoping they're going to die peacefully in their sleep when the anime is over.

If technology crashed, I think we'll be having other issues then figuring out how we're gonna pay for out games and anime. :)

Bofuri: So...can we classify this as a mecha anime now?

We hear that there are tumults and riots in Rome, and that voices are raised concerning the army and the quality of our soldiers. Make haste to reassure us that you love and support us as we love and support you, for if we find that we have left our bones to bleach in these sands in vain, then beware the fury of the legions.

GuP Finale 2, good stuff.  Worth the wait, even if 3 probably won't be out until I'm 44.

I'm guessing there isn't a dub anywhere yet?

Is it in theaters or what? Because I just checked out streaming services, and the most I could find was the TV series, OVAs, and Der Film in HIDIVE.
