I fancy one of the actors at the theatre but I am not sure what his sexuality is. He seems to be straight based on how he talked about joining theatre. I have no idea what his take on non-binary people are as I am not out at work yet. So he just sees me as a guy. Even if he knew he'd likely still see me as a guy.

Until I scrolled through this thread, I've never heard of Dororo. Is it any good?

Do you work at a theatre? What's that like? Genuinely curious.

I just finished watching Terminator Dark Fate and I'm 50/50 on the movie to be honest. It's better than the last few Terminator movies, but that's not saying a lot. I find the plot to be pretty messy and John Connor's death pissed me off to be honest.

Yes now go watch it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FgQR2O8PGf4

Yeah I do spotlight. It's fun and I really enjoy it. I would love to perform or do state management, but, like most jobs, once they find what you are good at it's hard to find the opportunity to do other things and advance your career. I do enjoy being around actors and musicians, and getting to experience live performances nearly every night is magical. Some productions are more fun than others though. Some are great, with a great cast and crew, and the musical is astounding. Some are just interesting, for a lack of a better term. If you are interested in theatre go for it. If you want to get paid for it you must find an equity theatre though.

Oh wow

Fair enough. As the article notes, it goes by their standards that they wouldn't have what is essentially pornography on their channel; what's most confusing is why they didn't consider that in the first place.

I like it. Sengoku era Japan action stuff, basically the unborn child of a lord gets sacrificed to demons for the land to prosper, the baby is born alive but without limbs, facial features, skin... without anything really.

A war veteran who makes prostheses finds and raises it, makes him prosthetic limbs, eyes, nose etc. The child, basically unable to perceive the world aside from being able to "see" the soul of living things is attacked by demons all his life until he slays one. He then grows a leg back and they realize killing the demons that fed on his body lets him regain what he has lost.

Outfitted with swords hidden in his prosthetic arms he journeys through the land to slay demons. He meets a child thief named Dororo who decides to travel with him.

While it has its comedic moments it’s a rather dark piece that tells tales of people lost in the horrors of war. What makes it interesting is that the protagonist, named Hyakkimaru by Dororo, is disabled and learns about the world more and more with the body parts and senses that he gets back.

I would give it a try, I got sucked in by the first episodes and couldn’t stop.

Both the Dororo manga and the newer anime are awesome. The old 60s anime is fun for what it is.

What's fun about the new anime is that I can definitely see the resemblance to an old-school anime, in some of Dororo's facial expressions especially.

Also my memory fudged up, it wasn’t Dororo who named Hyakkimaru, that was his foster father.

Or as Hyakkimaru himself calls him... "mama" :lol
