2nd Stage Lensmen

You know a book is bad ass, when the enemy fleet brings along seven planets, armed with engines and guns, to a space battle. I thought that Gundam was getting raw when one colony got converted to a space cannon, but back in 1953, E. E. Smith had his heroes hurling planets as projectile, and all calculated with slide rulers (though they started using computers in book 5).

In other randomness, Endless Eights has supposedly ended after the eighth iteration.

Also, I saw this comment at Crunchyroll for Kurokami episode 13: Hawkeye_666 said. "And did Ketia just become beastily????? SURVEY SAYS!!!!!! BIG MOTHERFING YES!!!!!!!!!!"

Oh, Mother English, weep as I laugh in joy.
