Something I don't really get about Demon Slayer (best active anime, BTW) is why they fight/hunt demons at night instead of during the day where humans have a YUGE advantage.
Obviously sometimes it can't be helped (time sensitive, you have no idea where the demon is, they catch you off guard, etc) but other times it can be helped and yet, for some reason, they still sometimes insist on fighting/hunting at night even though it makes no strategic sense. |

I got a trial of Hulu so I’m making my way through Gundam 08th MS team. Fun.
I’ve found a few other Anime shows on there I’ll jump on those too. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By SC4eyes: I finished GATE and thoroughly enjoyed it. I could stand to see moar of that too. While I definitely understand the position of Rory Mercury for best girl, I have to respectfully disagree. While she is awesome in combat and generally perverted, given that she is old and experienced and could teach me some new tricks. She still has that casual disregard for life (or hunger to end it) that I think would not lead to a long and fruitful relationship. IMHO Shino Kuribayashi is best girl and would be the one I brought home to introduce to Mom and put a ring on it. https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/gate-thus-the-jsdf-fought-there/images/c/cb/Gate_Jieitai_Kano_Chi_nite%2C_Kaku_Tatakaeri_Shino_Kuribayashi_rifle_bayonet_charge.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20171021095415 https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/gate-thus-the-jsdf-fought-there/images/d/de/Shino_Kuribayashi_drunk_at_the_hotsprings_Anime_episode_9.png/revision/latest?cb=20170808003213 Kuribayashi is badass especially in the light novels, she ends up taking on a werewolf with a kbar at one point. The scene where she goes on a rampage protecting the city gates is her characters dream come true. Kuribayashi is pretty much obsessed with the wish to live in combat and being attached to the gate recon force where she has a chance to fight was the best thing to happen to her. |

Mostly dormant during the day, yes, but they don’t cease to exist during the day and yet demon slayers seem to act as if they do. Like when they suspect a demon is residing within a brothel why don’t they go during the day when they could retreat through a wall into daylight if things go tits up? Why do they have to wait until night to search for it? Obviously it’d be easier to find it at night, but it’d also be a LOT more dangerous. |

Along that line I assumed that due to their powers their ability to hide during the day makes them almost impossible to kill unless cornered/trapped. While fighting at night they are out in the open to feed or fight making them more vulnerable to hunting even though they would be at their strongest offensively as well. like waiting for bears to be active to hunt them instead of searching every cave to find them hibernating in order to shoot one in it's sleep. |

Don't get me wrong, they have great anime to watch. I just couldn't stand the constant down times, every night, for a week, multiple times a month. Here is their maintenance schedule. https://help.hidive.com/support/solutions/articles/27000051456-maintenance-windows Downtime windows: Daily updates: 3:00 am 4:00 am 5:00 am Patch updates (Monday – Friday) Between 7:00 am and 9:00 am I was getting maintenance messages at 8-9pm EST all the time. |

I have HiDive as well and the only reason I keep them is because they have some shows I can't get anywhere else. As said above they seem to have a lot of outages but what is worse is their app sucks for the Fire stick, they don't have one for my smart TV, and even on my laptop their website is weird. I put stuff in my queue and watch an episode or two but the next time I come back the show is magically removed from my queue. Then I have to search for it again and start the process all over. Hopefully now that they ended their deal with Crunchyroll/ VRV they will get their stuff together.
In my opinion it is worth the $5 a month it costs but I wouldn't recommend it as a first choice. |

I'll believe you, but I've never had those 'issues'.

Browsing HiDive on my Roku Ultra 4K it looks like the app is broken, with the series title superimposed atop each series thumbnail image instead of appearing beneath it, which makes it extremely difficult to read the titles.
I will take a look on the TCL TV’s built-in Roku to see if it’s better there. Maybe my Roku box model is not officially supported.  (I also have a couple earlier Roku box models and a Roku Express that I haven’t taken out of the box yet, but if I can’t watch on my 65” Vizio with the 4K box that kind of defeats the whole point.) |

Before, the player page loaded kinda like a youtube vid, being that default size, and having the show info under it, and your ability to tweek any setting you wanted/needed to do before hand--click play and resize to full screen if you wanted and watch, when over, resize back, click on the funimation button, and go back home. Now when you click on it, its nearly full size, and you have to click the play icon before you can do any adjustments ( I always have to downgrade from super HQ to stream correctly ) and pick uncut if need be, so it does take longer to get going and you can no longer pause and do a clean screen grab if you want (for "reasons")--  " target="_blank">https://i.imgur.com/uA0oX4v.pngand when the show is done, you have to click the 'back' option which loads that show's page, then click the funimation button to go home to watch the next show, I know all first world problems, but I liked the old one better. |

When I browse the available HiDive shows on my TCL TV (with built-in Roku) I see the same thing that I see on the Roku 4K Ultra set-top box, namely that the show titles are overlaying the show thumbnails.
Perhaps that is the way that it is intended to work (and does work) on all platforms? If so, that's a really worthless, brain-dead design. I will have to see what it looks like on a PC / browser. |

Try hooking a VR headset to that computer, then run Big Screen Beta with your desktop on the screen of the virtual movie theater you are sitting in. Don't bother with the virtual popcorn. It's essentially tasteless. |

That view is different from what I see on the Roku, at least when not logged in and viewing in "Browse" mode, in that your screen shot does not have titles superimposed on top of the show thumbnails. So maybe it's a Roku thing, or maybe it's a "Browse" mode thing. Here is a photo that I took of the 55" TCL/Roku screen. If you look closely you can see that there is an overlay in white lettering on top of each thumbnail, giving the series title (at least partially), season number, episode count, and sometimes the rating (such as TV-14). But you can't see the whole thing, and it clashes with whatever is in the thumbnail.  Attached File |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By BB868: So just to pass this along HiDive is offering a 50% off yearly subscription campaign that lasts till the end of year, it will only be $24. I've been monthly for 2 years, so I did it. Thanks for posting that heads-up - I subscribed at the sale price - either I will watch on my Mac (or on one of my PCs and/or tablets), or maybe try it on the Roku even with the attendant problems, or maybe hook up the HDMI out from my Mac onto the big screen TV instead of the Roku... |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By BB868: Might be hard to describe, depending on your point of reference. Before, the player page loaded kinda like a youtube vid, being that default size, and having the show info under it, and your ability to tweek any setting you wanted/needed to do before hand--click play and resize to full screen if you wanted and watch, when over, resize back, click on the funimation button, and go back home. Now when you click on it, its nearly full size, and you have to click the play icon before you can do any adjustments ( I always have to downgrade from super HQ to stream correctly ) and pick uncut if need be, so it does take longer to get going and you can no longer pause and do a clean screen grab if you want (for "reasons")-- https://i.imgur.com/uA0oX4v.png" target="_blank">https://i.imgur.com/uA0oX4v.png and when the show is done, you have to click the 'back' option which loads that show's page, then click the funimation button to go home to watch the next show, I know all first world problems, but I liked the old one better.

I've been back with Funimation for 6 months or so now. They've only had 1 un announced down time that i saw. It was the only issue I know off. What's your issue with the player?

Now you can 'enjoy' the wholesomeness of Redo of Healer   I do have a cable from my computer to the TV too, but it takes 'effort' to hook it up, so I stopped bothering
