I respect Wade here a lot more than I do a coward who wouldn't make that argument. Once my mom and I were looking at standalone freezers at Sears and debating a little too loudly how many bodies you could fit in one. Salesguy walked up and was like "no way. You could absolutely fit 3." Got the sale

"Umberto Eco, who owned 50,000 strategy games had this to say about Steam libraries:

It is foolish to think that you have to play all the strategy games you buy, as it is foolish to criticize those who buy more strategy games than they will ever be able to play. It would be like saying that you should use all the cutlery or glasses or screwdrivers or drill bits you bought before buying new ones. There are things in life that we need to always have plenty of supplies, even if we will only use a small portion. If, for example, we consider strategy games as medicine, we understand that it is good to have many at home rather than a few; when you want to feel better, then you go to the 'medicine closet' and choose a strategy game. Not a random one, but the right strategy game for that moment. THat's why you should always have a nutrition choice! Those who buy only one strategy game, read only that one and then get rid of it. They simply apply the consumer mentality to strategy games, that is, they consider them a consumer product, a good. Those who love strategy games know that a strategy game is anything but a commodity."

Ghost Divers: Nodame Cantabile @ghostdivers.exportaud.io · 02/10/2026

This week on the podcast, we discover we actually have a lot to say about how Eva 1.0 is ostensibly the same content as the first six episodes of the show and feels devoted to hyper-fidelity to the original, and yet nonetheless it is also radically different in key ways. Listen now at exportaud.io!

Edited page from the Evangelion manga.

Panel 1: Rei in the Eva plug cockpit look up and says "You're... crying again..."

Panel 2: Shinji looking down at her and crying.

Panel 3: Rei says, "I haven't seen you cry like this before..."

Panel 4: Wide shot of the cockpit, Shinji is clearly visible but Rei is obscured by the seat. Rei says, "Why are you sad?"

Panel 5: Mid length shot of Shinji wiping away tears. He says, "Dummy... that's not it!"

Panel 6: Closer shot of Shinji wiping away tears, his hand and wrist now fully hiding his eyes. He says, "I'm crying because I'm happy... happy there's a new episode of Ghost Divers"

Panel 7: Closeup of Rei looking at him, somewhat taken aback.

Continuing to a second page.

Panel 1: Rei leans back in the cockpit seat, reflective. "... because you're happy? So you cry when you're happy, too."

Panel 2: Shinji finishing wiping his tears. Rei is continuing speaking from off panel. "I'm sorry, I..."

Panel 3: Longer shot of Rei laying in the cockpit seat, Shinji in the foreground looking at her. She says, "... I'm not sure... what expression I should make... at a time like—like this."

Panel 4: Closeup of Rei looking up, sad or wistful. "Even though I should be happy..."

Panel 5: Closup of Shinji looking down at Rei.

Panel 6: Closer shot of Shinji, near tears beginning to well in his eyes as he smiles. He says, "Well, it's you're happy——you should rate them 5 stars"

Continuing to the next page.

Panel 1: Closeup of Rei looking at Shinji.

Panel 2: Reverse shot of Shinji looking at Rei.

Panel 3: Return to the angle of Rei looking at Shinji from slightly further distance. From off panel, Shinji extends his hand towards her and asks, "Can you stand?"

Panel 4: Rei beginning to lift up out of the seat. She has taken Shinji's hand. Her eyes are closed.

Panel 5: Similar shot, but she has moved forward slightly, and her eyes are now open.

Continuing onto the next page. This one is colored, unlike the previous that have been in black and white.

Panel 1: A continuation of the panel from the previous page, but large and dominating most of the page. She holds Shinji's hand, and very importantly, she is similing.

Panel 2: Shinji's reaction to her smile, taken aback but moved. Over his face is imposed the cover art for this season of Ghost Divers. To the left of his face is text mimicking the iconic Evangelion title cards, which reads, "GHOST DIVERS: EVANGELION 1.0 YOU ARE (NOT) ALONE listen now at exportaud.io"

Genuinely, this completely rules

－Recently, the game has been going viral on X for its beautiful undressing animations. I’ve even read in one of your previous interviews that the development team practiced stripping themselves as reference for the undressing animations. What was the process behind making the animations actually like?

Matsui:

I’d love to know how far that story has spread. It’s true.

First, we write a plot for each undressing scene, then draw storyboards, exactly as the original team did. Then the real work begins, because the animation is essentially all keyed by hand. A designer moves the clothing’s 3D model, frame by frame, manually. It really is pretty much like the claymation method I mentioned.

We did try automating it with physics simulation first, but it was a total failure. The cloth moved in a physically correct way, but had absolutely no allure. We learned a profound lesson: accuracy and sensuality are two unrelated properties. In the end, we accepted that humans would have to do all of it.

Then VR adds its own weight. In a normal game, if something becomes awkward, you can cut away or swap models between scenes. In VR, the player can look from any angle at any time, so none of those tricks are available. The same model has to undress convincingly no matter where you’re standing. When I described this to a designer at another studio, he said, “I would never do that.” I’ve chosen to take it as a compliment.

And then, yes, the part you’ve read about. The undressing motions themselves use motion capture, but the deeper problem was that nobody actually knew the correct rhythm and order in which a person takes off clothes. So, the directors gathered and undressed themselves as reference. “That zipper is coming down too fast.” “She’d pause once before slipping her shoulder out.” These were serious, sober discussions. For compliance reasons, the Super Real Mahjong Venus Returns team works in a walled-off section of our office – and that was the moment those walls truly earned their keep.

This isn't an exaggeration btw, according to his afterword from volume 1 he explains that the stroke *paralyzed half his body* and yet he still persevered and ended up making one of my favorite series I've ever randomly stumbled upon. It's *such* a good manga/anime and I adore it so much

Postscript from the end of Dara-san of Reiwa, volume 1:

Thank you very much for checking out my comic.

When I first started to publish "Reiwa no Dara-san" on the internet, I had no idea that it would end up in volume-form.

A few years ago, I actually had a stroke that paralyzed the right half of my body, and I wasn't sure if I'd ever be able to draw manga again. Even though my right hand still doesn't work as well as I'd like, I'm still encouraged by the fact that I was able to publish Dara-san after my injury, and that it was well-received.

I would really appreciate it if you would follow this manga, which features mostly girls and is like a melting pot of my fetishes, all the way to the end.
