    Why do robots need to wear safety construction helmets?


    Because 97% of anime looks spectacular but is otherwise incredibly fucking stupid?

    But that's just me.

    A better question is why they need to release it in ShitTime format.

    Can anyone convert it to a format not tied to a proprietary codec that forces me to install buggy software on my machine? A conversion to DivX would be great!
