    Is anyone else tired of overly long titles that explain the whole concept? This title is like if Attack on Titan was called “Soldiers Using Complicated Grappling Equipment Fight Giant Attackers In A City.” It’s tiresome.

    You could actually make a game of it of it. Like, take a show title and give it the Recent Anime Title treatment. It’s a new nerdy party game! I’ll call it “We Take The Basic Situation of a Show and Turn it into a Title for that Show” Just rolls right off the tongue.

      “That Time I Obliterated my Brother’s Body and Spent an Arm and a Leg to Get His Soul Back.”

        I can’t effing believe it took me until now to get this. I knew you were doing the game, and I kept coming back and re-reading it over and over…

        And finally. Today. It clicked. Holy crap I’m slow lol.
