[rocky flicker]

What argument bro

[cobalt stag]

serbia

[rocky flicker]

I call the entire community a hellhole you say I’m insulting people yes I am

[fiery burrow]

[rocky flicker]

Because neither the silksong reddit or here is enjoyable at any time

[cobalt stag]

valid icl

[cedar trench]

fuck yeah

[tough crest]

People go crazy for silksong, because they're too optimistic

[shell yacht]

You don't find it enjoyable because you're one of the people ignoring facts and logic to argue and you think I'm a bad guy for telling people that they're wrong

[fiery burrow]

Sees people correcting misinformation
Insults them
"This entire community is a hellhole"

Have you considered that you are the problem?

[shell yacht]

People can be in this server and talk about games without being a lunatic about an unreleased game

[cedar trench]

nono. People LARP as mentally insane because they want to pretend waiting for a game is a herculean task

[fiery burrow]

0 self awareness

[tired oyster]

i've seen you be unreasonably aggressive over inconsequential things btw, i don't think you're exempt from the problem you're talking about here

[rocky flicker]

Dude I try to have conversations they turn into arguments

I don’t have this problem on any other server

[cedar trench]

when the actual schizophrenics start talking suddenly it's bad

[rocky flicker]

Like right now like this exact moment

People having an argument
“I don’t really like how every time I’m in here there’s an argument going on”
“You’re the problem”

[tired oyster]

this is something i can agree with. i can say literally anything in this server and people will turn into debate kids about it

[cedar trench]

you're the problem

[shell yacht]

https://tenor.com/view/subida-gif-18379274

[fiery burrow]

My brother in christ you started the argument

[rocky flicker]

You see I thought that

But I have this problem nowhere else

[fiery burrow]

If you don't want an argument to start then don't insult people

[cedar trench]

people want to pretend they're like this but sadly they just don't go outside enough

it's a whole world out there

[rocky flicker]

You started this by saying reddit is a cesspool and I said they’re the same lmao

[tired oyster]

like this IS an actual issue. some people here are incredibly argumentative and seem to be itching for it at all times

[cobalt stag]

are we STILL using this braindead anectodal argument

[rocky flicker]

I try to have conversations and people act like everything is a debate

[brittle garnet]

this is true, i only ever come into the channel to see what incorrect statement i can start an argument about

[fiery burrow]

I can't tell if you are lying or actually delusional

[brittle garnet]

verified 100%

[cedar trench]

like dude this place is such an echo chamber out there there's about 8 billion people who dont even know about silksong and they go on about their lives and it's so beautiful.

If we factor in every regular that talks in here as of march 2025 it's a number that likely doesn't go past the double digits it's like 50 guys max

[shell yacht]

To actually talk about something interesting, I went down a lost media rabbit hole yesterday and discovered Salvador Dali did a collaboration with fucking Disney? It got shelved and finished in 2003 by like a grandson of Disney? Crazy shit, the collaboration was a animation by (mostly) the people working on Fantasia

[tired oyster]

i don't think it's really cool to just completely ignore genuine complaints about the server when you're supposed to be a staff member

[cedar trench]

oooh i can't say that noted noted

[cobalt stag]

crazy fun fact

[cedar trench]

let me paraphrase

[fiery burrow]

This is still true

[cobalt stag]

how the fuck did that even happen like what was done to get it arranged

[tired oyster]

or, get this. you can learn to not turn every disagreement into an argument

[shell yacht]

The hell are you talking about

[shell yacht]

You see we didn't turn this into an argument, I was simply correcting people's misinformation. It became an argument because they wanted to argue

[cedar sedge]

i usually have 1 or 2 weeks obsessed with silksong per year, i can guarantee that if you don't think about it every single day of every single year time passes wayyyy faster

[cobalt stag]

you say argument like it immediately means its hostile

[fiery burrow]

When going off the definition that an argument is the sharing of conflictory viewpoints that is literally impossible. If you mean like insults and stuff getting involved then yeah thats an issue

[unborn dome]

I fucking hate wireless mice
they just be difficult for no reason

[rocky flicker]

It feels pretty damn hostile

[cedar trench]

what i'm trying to say here is if you go on calling yourself "schizophrenic" on reddit over a video game not releasing under very reasonable circumstances i hope you actually endure through a real hardship in life and come out and go and tell me how that felt

[rocky flicker]

Why are you talking like it’s a debate holy fuck

[shell yacht]

I hate wired mice, I feel like it's always getting caught on something even when it's not

[rocky flicker]

I cannot have a normal conversation here

[fiery burrow]

Why are you insulting me for the way I choose to speak?

[shell yacht]

But then again I haven't used a proper PC in..... When was Obama in office

[rocky flicker]

Because you’re talking like it’s a debate!

[cobalt stag]

what is wrong with debating if you disagree with someone?

[cedar trench]

yesterday i was cracking open mice and there were no wires, just red gushy stuff

[fiery burrow]

Thats just how I talk online sometimes, don't be rude

[cedar trench]

so idk what type of mice you're getting

[opaque sigil]

I only use wired, I'm sure bluetooth is fine but I don't like having to worry about battery

[rocky flicker]

It’s discord if you’re debating it’s over

[brittle garnet]

Idk what this convo is about but what do you view as a normal conversation

[unborn dome]

I use trackballs so that’s a non issue for me

[clever socket]

what is going on in this chat holy moly

[cobalt stag]

huh

[cedar trench]

cracking open mice

[clever socket]

mods lock the chat for an hour

[cedar trench]

at the open mice night

[cobalt stag]

fym "its over" you can have a sensible debate anywhere

[fiery burrow]

I don't even know what talking like its a debate even means

Like yeah I disagreed with someone

[opaque sigil]

y'all are getting baited

[fiery burrow]

Big whoop

[frozen frigate]

WHOOP

there you go

[shell yacht]

No star you don't understand, I disagreed with you and that means I want your head on a pike

[cedar trench]

the very wise bass, alerting the group as it sees me arrive with a fishing rod and worms:

[fiery burrow]

Well I want your head on a pike because of your fruit tierlist but I digress

[shell yacht]

Like I get some people don't understand tone through text but why does everybody assume that every conversation is just hostile shit slinging

[unborn dome]

should I buy split fiction?

[tired oyster]

really comforting that server staff are siding with people in petty-ass sarcastic ways like this

[opaque sigil]

projection

[shell yacht]

I'm watching a playthrough of split fiction right now and it looks really good

[cedar trench]

hostile shit singing is the next binding of isaac enemy

[fiery burrow]

How dare the moderators apply rhetoric

[opaque sigil]

it looks good and I've heard good things, can't speak to it from personal experience though

[cobalt stag]

so you want everyone to talk like a robot?

[fiery burrow]

They can't do that apparently

[brittle garnet]

idk it really doesn't seem like an issue?

[shell yacht]

You clearly don't understand what's going on then. I'm pointing out how it's wrong to assume that the conversation is hostile and then be hostile yourself

[frozen frigate]

never attribute to malice what can be attributed to stupidity or however it goes

[fiery burrow]

Everytime someone is sarcastic they're being petty and rude

[rocky flicker]

Based and real assume stupidity before malice always

[opaque sigil]

yeah that totally sounds accurate

[cedar trench]

WHAT

[shell yacht]

I mean every time I see Star say something sarcastic I just imagine her giggling like a troll behind the computer

[cedar trench]

I USED THAT WORD CORRECTLY

FUCK YOU

[rocky flicker]

What are you saying dude didn’t u get one like a minute ago 😭

[cedar trench]

this server's automod FUCKING SUCKS

[cobalt stag]

i dont get why sarcasm somehow equals mocking online

[tired oyster]

you're applying a way broader lens to a completely in-context thing i said

[cedar trench]

the other word for henchman

[rocky flicker]

Lmao

[cedar trench]

exactly!

but like

[shell yacht]

Unfortunately we cannot make the bot read context

[brittle garnet]

the goons

[cedar trench]

in a proper context

[rocky flicker]

Mod how do we use words contextually

[fiery burrow]

Can you elaborate because in the context of the conversation Powdered was using sarcasm to attack an idea

[rocky flicker]

I simply want to hire some Boston fellas for a job why is it insinuated that I’m being a degenerate

[fiery burrow]

Its not a personal attack at all

[rocky flicker]

I’m not even insulting you but you 100% talk like you’re debating

[cedar trench]

powdered water is just a low level henchman. The other mods were psychologically harmed beyond repair and don't really have opinions or "takes"

so don't worry

[fiery burrow]

Okay

I guess I'm a debate bro

Ad hominem or whatever

[rocky flicker]

Last time I debated was year 5 and I was insane at it

[cedar trench]

comforting to know that since i used a banned word the moderation team got a little preview of my joke

[rocky flicker]

What other contextual words can we find that will get us banned the quickest

[brittle garnet]

so what actually differentiates a debate and a conversation

[cedar trench]

i should do that. A patreon for my messages so that people can know minutes in advance my thoughts on just about anything for a small fee

[tired oyster]

that's my fault for misinterpreting it then, but in the context of the conversation and the whole "if you're uncomfortable with people disagreeing with you" thing, which is in fact NOT the issue at all, it felt like one.

[rocky flicker]

In a conversation you shouldn’t be breaking down every part of someone’s statement and asking for a specific reply

[shell yacht]

-5 points, you didn't ring the bell before you spoke 🤓

[cobalt stag]

what is the issue then

[fiery burrow]

If you don't understand it or disagree with it for specific reasons you absolutely should

[rocky flicker]

Maybe I’m just not debate pilled but that’s not how I like interacting with people

[shell yacht]

That actually has been the issue the entire time, people are getting corrected and then getting hostile about it

[clever socket]

bazinga

[brittle garnet]

[rocky flicker]

We are at an impasse now because we just straight disagree

[cedar trench]

reading random messages and bits of this conversation makes me feel like you guys are really arguing about nothing

[rocky flicker]

Now you think we should debate about why we disagree and I think we should call eachother a bad word and move on

[fiery burrow]

Okay, call it a debate if you'd like

[cobalt stag]

we are arguing about the semantics of arguing

[cedar trench]

which, since it's useless to argue about nothing on the internet, one of you must really be getting a kick out of this

[rocky flicker]

Haha I said it first

[shell yacht]

We're arguing about how to argue akshually 🤓

[rocky flicker]

And it’s been the most interesting thing said yet

[cedar trench]

so genuinely nothing

[marsh ibex]

hey guys

[rocky flicker]

What are we supposed to be talking about silksong? We got fuck all

[marsh ibex]

would you like to see something cool

[fiery burrow]

Yes this has been a complete waste of time

[cobalt stag]

im so sleepy rn i need some black coffee or something this shit sucks

[shell yacht]

Depends on what you think cool is joker

[rocky flicker]

All of discord is a waste of time why else would I be here if not to waste time

[marsh ibex]

idk last night I engaged in an interesting discussion on silksong

[rocky flicker]

It’s discord

[opaque sigil]

it's almost like some people aren't worth engaging with because they just want to complain

[cedar trench]

i'm just saying there's something else to talk about which isn't semantics

[rocky flicker]

I don’t believe that for a second

[rocky flicker]

Semantics is my least favourite thing to talk about

[opaque sigil]

what was it

[cedar trench]

LOL! Couldn't be me

[tired oyster]

ok. fucking whatever man

bye

[marsh ibex]

well of course you don’t believe that
you don’t want to

[cobalt stag]

lets talk about the russian civil war and its consequences on 20th century europe

[marsh ibex]

anyways

[rocky flicker]

I very much don’t like your attitude I’ll say that

[opaque sigil]

I don't caaaare

[cedar trench]

no i don't want to

[marsh ibex]

Very cool stuff

[shell yacht]

Did that guy Parry a planet

[rocky flicker]

Cool background for my incredibly long phone

[cobalt stag]

asura's wrath is such a fantastic game

[marsh ibex]

no he cut the moon in half with fire

[rocky flicker]

Me when monster energy

[cobalt stag]

i hate capcom for discarding it

[shell yacht]

Maybe I'm just not awake enough but it looks like something else

[marsh ibex]

well it didn’t perform well

why would they keep it

[rocky flicker]

What’s asuras wrath

[cobalt stag]

it also barely got enough marketing

[clever socket]

Milksong is real

[marsh ibex]

I shall give you more

[cobalt stag]

it got great reviews just didnt get promoted nearly enough to grow

[clever socket]

where is this from?

[marsh ibex]

https://tenor.com/view/finger-giant-finger-giant-wyzen-heavy-gif-7528376100897651399

[cedar trench]

today i drank a red bull and i feel surprisingly functional

[marsh ibex]

Ordeal
On webtoon

[rocky flicker]

That’s from a different movie that I know

[cobalt stag]

like god of war but buddhist and also kinda anime

[rocky flicker]

It’s a sun wukong movie

Hang on

[cobalt stag]

they took that scene from this iirc

[coral prawn]

Literally the coolest thing ever

[cedar trench]

buddhist god of war fire emote

[rocky flicker]

Journey to the west

[tired oyster]

really lame dismissive-ass thing to say when people are trying to put into words actual complaints they have about the environment of a community. like awesome echo chamber you're creating here where you can do no wrong

[clever socket]

its okay in moderation

[rocky flicker]

I agree with this

How old is asuras wrath

[coarse leaf]

why is that surprising

[fiery burrow]

The complaints in question:

You speak like you're in a debate

[cedar trench]

what lead you to write this message. From the start. What is your initial position

[rocky flicker]

Stand by it

[fiery burrow]

Thats not a meaningful contribution to the conversation at all and it shouldn't be treated as such

[shell yacht]

The "actual complaints" are coming from the people who will not listen to reason

[rocky flicker]

Raw

[shell yacht]

Okay yeah now it makes sense lol

[eager adder]

Silksong releases tommorow

[marsh ibex]

All this was to kill one guy btw

[rocky flicker]

Bro I thought journey to the west was a super old movie it came out in 2017 which was 8 years ago

I’m so incredibly old

[marsh ibex]

which one

[cobalt stag]

this black coffee is disgusting but i need the caffeine

[marsh ibex]

There are like 20

[shell yacht]

Was the guy standing on the moon or was the moon collateral damage

[rocky flicker]

The 2017 one I think

[fiery burrow]

Its just as useful as saying I speak like chatGPT or whatever its just an insult

[marsh ibex]

Collateral damage

[shell yacht]

Lmfao

[rocky flicker]

NEVERMIND it’s a 2013 movie

Actually an old movie

Journey to the west conquering demons

[marsh ibex]

2013
Old movie

[shell yacht]

There is most definitely older versions, also do you know how old that story is?

[marsh ibex]

[rocky flicker]

FIRE movie final battle was raw

[rocky flicker]

Yes I know how old sun wukong is

I’m talking about the movie I’m thinking of which has a scene like that with a big hand

[marsh ibex]

older than yer mum

[tired oyster]

that people in this community can be incredibly unnecessarily hostile and argumentative in the way they disagree with people. it's a thing i've seen firsthand and have seen nobody who's perpetrated it when a staff member was around get any consequences before! in my mind it's literally just because they're established community members that have some bias towards them but i don't wanna make those assumptions

[marsh ibex]

oh so the buddha bit

humorous

[rocky flicker]

Beeg Buddha

[marsh ibex]

what is even happening rn

[rocky flicker]

I only remember that movie because one of the most powerful guys only ability was making his foot really massive

[shell yacht]

People are mad that they're getting corrected about false information and it led to this guy yapping about something

[rocky flicker]

And it was really funny to me as a kid

I wasn’t mad about the false information I was mad how every conversation here turns into an argument

[marsh ibex]

well you note how language such as this can be viewed as inflammatory correct

[shell yacht]

Oh no not you the person who was actually mad stopped talking earlier

[subtle lynx]

Discord

[fiery burrow]

Mods have banned multiple established community members before its not really a bias thing

[tired oyster]

this is exactly what i'm talking about!

[rocky flicker]

THATS WHAT I SAID

[marsh ibex]

yapping has negative connotations and if they feel like they have a valid point they’ll get riled up

[fiery burrow]

Powdered also deletes like half my messages

[rocky flicker]

maybe you’re the problem

[marsh ibex]

eh

[rocky flicker]

Can we sacrifice her for silksong please

[shell yacht]

It's actually joker lurking killing all your messages, I can't type and delete at the same time

[marsh ibex]

powdered deletes a lot of people’s messages

[rocky flicker]

Powdered can you delete this message please

[marsh ibex]

https://tenor.com/view/rinauchis-cocobearkins-gif-26346664

[opaque sigil]

gonna need some evidence for this character assassination

[cedar trench]

did you say anything prior to this or was this just your initial take because i feel like it's not a super baseless claim

[marsh ibex]

I only remove mod and admin embeds because it’s funny sometimes

[warped rock]

the evidence is i think so therefore it is so

[cedar trench]

not the mod bias part

[rocky flicker]

What’s everyone’s favourite sun wukong media

[cedar trench]

but the toxicity part

[shell yacht]

I mean I have been typing before and see messages get deleted and I don't know who else would do it cuz usually joker's the only other one in chat

[rocky flicker]

If you say black myth wukong you’re a foolish foolish person

[cedar trench]

i like the monkey

[marsh ibex]

lego monkie kid

[shell yacht]

I haven't played it but black myth wukong Dragon Ball

[rocky flicker]

I used to have this app to learn Chinese who’s mascots were the 4 guys from journey to the west so I pick that

[marsh ibex]

yeah I notice stuff like that too

do I care enough to backread

(Yes)

[opaque sigil]

no

[warped rock]

the ancient chinese inscribed parchment papers did the story best there i said it

[rocky flicker]

When I’m here there’s a lot of people who don’t directly insult people but who’s tone is just aggressively “better than thou” and because they don’t directly insult people they act like the people who lash out are completely in the wrong

That’s what pisses me off most of the time

[rocky flicker]

HOT take

[cedar trench]

i feel like i'm also a bit toxic sometimes but i'm a loveable fool there's no way i could be reprimanded

[opaque sigil]

so you're just mad at some people.... existing even when they aren't insulting anyone

ok

that's reasonable

[rocky flicker]

You see how you’re doing exactly what I’m saying

[fiery burrow]

It isn't my job to sugarcoat all my messages to not piss off people who can't regulate their own emotions

[coarse leaf]

thats hilarious

[rocky flicker]

Like is it me?

[fiery burrow]

Yes

[opaque sigil]

mhm

[cedar trench]

it's "holier than thou"

[rocky flicker]

Then insult people

[shell yacht]

You are reading the wrong tone for every message that is being said, now that might not be on you for being unable to read the tone of the conversation but we are not trying to be condescending assholes

I want everybody to simply just understand and move on and stop having these stupid ass ideas

I don't want to put the stupid people in the dirt

[opaque sigil]

why would she do that

[coarse leaf]

fun fact, all of these people are lore regulars

[stoic sigil]

EW LORE

[cedar trench]

don't group me in with that scum

[rocky flicker]

Yeah ik every time I check in it’s the same people

[coarse leaf]

the venn diagram is hilarious

[shell yacht]

Yeah that's why we are debate pilled

Lol

[stoic sigil]

Mods can we delete lore

[cedar trench]

i'm a silksong discussion regular, which means i am scum and not "lore" scum

[opaque sigil]

the projection is wild

[fiery burrow]

Just like in the simulations

[rocky flicker]

Yeah I hate debate pilled I think it’s an awful way to interact with people

[shell yacht]

That's how real conversations work though

[rocky flicker]

Because there’s no conversation it’s just trying to prove to yourself and your discord buddies you’re intellectually and morally superior

[fiery burrow]

If you don't want a debate don't say stuff that is wrong

[rocky flicker]

Get off discord

[cedar trench]

when you engage in an argument you want to do it in a specific way

[shell yacht]

Not while I'm in the midst of selling my plasma

[tired oyster]

nobody's asking you to "sugarcoat" your messages, they're asking you to not talk like you're above the people you're disagreeing with. which your tone genuinely does give off sometimes. and you're not the only one doing this

[rocky flicker]

I DONT WANNA ENGAGE IN AN ARGUMENT

arguments suck

[cedar trench]

what has this entire conversation been

like

[opaque sigil]

then don't

[grand ferry]

so true

[opaque sigil]

you can just not

[cedar trench]

a court hearing?

[shell yacht]

and we are back to everybody not understanding what a argument really is

[cedar trench]

it's you vs the state of california or something

[rocky flicker]

Me explaining how I try to avoid arguments but every time I’m in here there’s an argument and I don’t like it 😭

[stoic sigil]

DESPERATE Discord Moderator SELLS HIS FUCKING BLOOD for a PLAYSTATION 5

[opaque sigil]

that's a given

[fiery burrow]

And we're back to insulting the way I talk

[rocky flicker]

Thank goodness

[fiery burrow]

Blah blah I talk like I'm holier than thou I talk like I'm a debate bro blah blah

How about you engage with the conversation

[shell yacht]

No I'm not going get my PS5 yet it's not going to give me that much money, I'm going to try and get something that will help me make money like a laptop

[rocky flicker]

Only the second part of that was directly at you the first part wasn’t

[tired oyster]

saying i'm insulting you because you have a tone to your text that implies you feel like you're above the people you're disagreeing with is a fucking example of what i mean here!

[rocky flicker]

Why would you want a ps5 you know how many games that thing has

[fiery burrow]

Maybe you're just misinterpreting my tone

[stoic sigil]

It has Helldivers 2

[opaque sigil]

(it's this)

[stoic sigil]

And that's enough

[shell yacht]

The PS5 has no games joke is so not funny

[rocky flicker]

Maybe you’re unintentionally insulting people with your tone

[marsh ibex]

I think part of that is fatigue from constantly having to talk about misinformation, and a large amount of people who come here and spread said misinformation usually don’t just go “oh this is wrong? Sorry.” They argue that it’s actually true or valid so the well is permanently poisoned. Plus, there’s a lot of it here

[fiery burrow]

Insulting people with my tone? What?

[coarse leaf]

(its intentional)

[cedar trench]

i can't seem to see the condescending tone you're getting from her messages

[fiery burrow]

This is a wild extrapolation

[opaque sigil]

the lack of self awareness in the hypocrisy here is crazy

[rocky flicker]

I agree

[marsh ibex]

however I think there are problems with tone and such here but this is from other things, not really discussions or arguments or debates here

[fiery burrow]

Can you explain how my tone is condescending or insulting

[marsh ibex]

it also doesn’t really help if you come into the channel swinging

like

[tired oyster]

ok. i'm done. this fucking sucks and i'm not enjoying myself at all

i'm gonna head out

[shell yacht]

Literally had one earlier it's how it led to this

[opaque sigil]

if you want to tone police maybe you shouldn't do it while doing the same thing you're complaining about but more actually

[rocky flicker]

Man I literally always come in here with the most normal messages and it snowballs

[marsh ibex]

idk a few people came in here just to argue toxicity and tone and idk maybe just don’t do that

[opaque sigil]

star's been way more chill than other people and y'all are coming after her for what, breathing?

[rocky flicker]

Do you not hear yourself? Like I can FEEL the snide

[cedar trench]

acab also includes the tone police

[gaunt fox]

the hell is going on in here

[rocky flicker]

The tone thing is like 90% at you star is fine with tone

[opaque sigil]

[versed pollen]

I'll handle them

[opaque sigil]

bruh I can't

this is hilarious

[rocky flicker]

Like do you seriously not see how that’s insulting

[marsh ibex]

idk it’s 50/50 sometimes

[tired oyster]

you are the shining star fucking example of what i'm talking about here

[rocky flicker]

This person is so idiotic that he’s being hilarious

[shell yacht]

https://tenor.com/view/nervous-smile-heh-gif-24170482

[rocky flicker]

I can’t with this buffoon am I right fellow discorders

[fiery burrow]

[rocky flicker]

You see now this guy gets it

Where’d the gif go

[shell yacht]

We just spent like 30 plus minutes trying to explain the tone of the conversation and not only are you still getting it wrong you misinterpreted the person who's being the most sarcastic and deliberately told you they were

[marsh ibex]

alright this is going nowhere just end the discussion block/ignore and move on please

[cedar trench]

absolute baller gif vaporized

[versed pollen]

1984

[marsh ibex]

just drop it

[coarse leaf]

could have waited like half a second longer powdered

[tired oyster]

in every disagreement you have with people you take on this snide, condescending-ass tone! nobody fucking likes it! it's not conducive to any conversation!

[frozen frigate]

oh my god

[coarse leaf]

i wasnt finished reading that gif smh

[shell yacht]

Joker shush

[marsh ibex]

@steel pelican not a random shitpost channel

[rocky flicker]

BRING THE GIFS BACK WHERE ARE THEY GOING

[cedar trench]

why are you NOW seeing that message

[marsh ibex]

No man don’t tell me to shush

[fiery burrow]

Do you not see how this is just a flatout insult

[steel pelican]

mb thought i was in hk-meme

[rocky flicker]

Omg mods fight holy shit this is big

[marsh ibex]

this isn’t conducive to anything literally ignore/block and move on

[fiery burrow]

"The way you talk sucks"

"No one likes it"

[tired oyster]

how else am i supposed to word it when it is quite literally what he is doing

[marsh ibex]

I don’t know why you guys keep interacting with each other if you’re gonna keep starting flame wars over tone or being argumentative just do it

please

[rocky flicker]

It’s like that one scene in the hobbit movie with the mountains fighting

[tired oyster]

like fully intentionally

[steel pelican]

Discordians find anything to fight over 😭

[cedar trench]

powdered and joker usually have their disagreements and it often ends with one of the two setting 6 hour slowmode here for no reason

[frozen frigate]

i was just curious about how many people were saying my name when i wasn't around so i searched it and i think you may have tagged my friend there, we used to share my name in this server but then i removed it and i think they still are Grimmfan

I’ve literally never done 6h slowmode here while disagreeing with another mod

[tired oyster]

not just the "way he talks". i've been in normal conversations with tammo before, he's not always talking like this

[rocky flicker]

Mods give us 3 day slow mode I’ve had enough

[tired oyster]

it is specifically when he disagrees with people

[cedar trench]

this implies that you always win the encounters. Lucky

[versed pollen]

Why can't you just let us spread misinformation in peace

[shell yacht]

Curly*

[steel pelican]

just close the channel lmao

[rocky flicker]

No everyone else needs to suffer as well

[cedar trench]

sure

sure

[shell yacht]

The 6-hour slow mode during a mod disagreement was curly

[rocky flicker]

I want the terminally online people to feel physical pain

[shell yacht]

It literally was I posted the screenshot lol

[versed pollen]

I hope Curly does it again

[cedar trench]

i read this message and then i start feeling like throwing up ikea rat fuck you

[fiery burrow]

speaking of why was slowmode removed

[shell yacht]

Couldn't tell you

[fiery burrow]

The hype wave isn't over yet

[cedar trench]

this is a joke btw i'm just a bit sick

[steel pelican]

I'm glad I'm just online a lot and not just terminally online 🙏

[shell yacht]

I never remove slowmode

[marsh ibex]

Wasn’t needed post event ig

[versed pollen]

It's just going to come back april 2nd

[rocky flicker]

I’m sorry your (n-1)th worst enemy I’ll do better

[marsh ibex]

I was lowering it but I was gonna leave 5s

[versed pollen]

Dyno was slow on that one

[shell yacht]

I was going to leave it at a minute for the next 2 weeks

[smoky nebula]

You're evil

[cedar trench]

the post event aftermath was small because people placed their bets on the other direct also tamagochi life

[shell yacht]

It's only going to go up later anyway

[rocky flicker]

Idk anything about tamagochi life was that big

[opaque sigil]

I mean it wasn't that small but sure

[cedar trench]

absurdly

[marsh ibex]

pretty

[cedar trench]

in a relative sense yeah

i've seen worse

[versed pollen]

Redditors explaining how the cake proves everything and Silksong will actually be appearing at the Nintendo Direct showing off Switch 2

[marsh ibex]

it was not small

[shell yacht]

It's one of those cult following things

[rocky flicker]

Idk I was just excited about Metroid prime 4 and monument valley 3 for switch

[marsh ibex]

I was barely here and it was the same as usual

[rocky flicker]

Speaking of HOLY FUCK METROID PROME 4?????

[shell yacht]

Like this was my "peak" content

[cedar trench]

perhaps i'm very biased because all i can think about is whatever's going to happen post switch2 direct

[shell yacht]

The UNC metroidvania is going to be so funny

[marsh ibex]

red and purple suit is not to my tastes honestly

[rocky flicker]

It’ll be funny no matter what

[zinc ginkgo]

NINTENDO TODAY, DELTARUNE TOMORROW, SILKSONG NEVER 🗣🔥🔥

[versed pollen]

Rift of the Necrodancer...

[rocky flicker]

I thought it went hard purple is my favourite colour

[fiery burrow]

How dare you

[opaque sigil]

"We just want leth to deconfirm rumors"

leth deconfirms a rumor
"actually it's a conspiracy he's in on it NINTENDO NDA"

[marsh ibex]

also it’s quite humorous for them to give samus psychic powers and the majority of it was spent on “she can use her new abilities to open doors”

[rocky flicker]

The face shield design was a little odd

Too pointy

[marsh ibex]

like okay hands do the same thing

[versed pollen]

Psychic hands

[shell yacht]

Yeah I thought that was kind of funny like oh no it's not gear this time it's psychic powers

[opaque sigil]

the bullet redirection waas cool ig

[rocky flicker]

I saw the psychic abilities and thought we were playing as dark samus

[marsh ibex]

However if everyone is not special maybe you can be who you want to be

[shell yacht]

Power scalers will go nuts though

[marsh ibex]

Didn’t she die in prime 3

It

[opaque sigil]

power scalers are already nuts

[marsh ibex]

whatever the fuck dark samus is

[rocky flicker]

That’s my game theory for Metroid prime 4 we will be dark samus the whole time

[rocky flicker]

I do not remember

[marsh ibex]

power scalers will see someone not die to a busted character and say they’re relative or some shit

[versed pollen]

Evil Samus is the cis straight white man version of Samus

[rocky flicker]

What’s a power scaler

[marsh ibex]

powerscaling is only good when it’s funny

[opaque sigil]

tk doesn't kill zote in colo so zote is on par with the lord of shades

[marsh ibex]

yeah they’d take that feat as a durability feat

[shell yacht]

Literally the last episode of death battle was like well Ghost Rider won against this guy and this guy won against that guy so actually he's fucking universal level

[versed pollen]

This is literally true

[marsh ibex]

or maybe they’d give zote toon force

[opaque sigil]

the fuck is toon force

[marsh ibex]

well ghost rider is universal in several comic runs

‘S just comic things

[fiery burrow]

Rock beats scissors, and scissors beats paper, so rock can beat paper

[shell yacht]

Yeah I know he can get up to that level but this was just using his own power set

[marsh ibex]

have you ever watched looney tunes

[cedar trench]

powerscaling always gave me headaches

[marsh ibex]

and seen bugs bunny do funny powerful stuff

like sawing off florida

[opaque sigil]

so it's just 'cartoon logic'

[fiery burrow]

I prefer the LA version

[rocky flicker]

wtf is anyone talking about

[marsh ibex]

https://tenor.com/view/bugsbunny-florida-saw-cut-island-gif-5578844

[shell yacht]

I wish bugs Bunny would do that in real life

We don't need Florida

[cedar trench]

toon force is the closest thing to being a god in powerscaling terms

[marsh ibex]

Yes but it’s given an actual power

[cedar trench]

you can't powerscale bugs bunny or uncle grandpa

[lost zinc]

Silksong on April 2?

[marsh ibex]

or whatever

[versed pollen]

Toon force is the only good genre of powerscaling

[marsh ibex]

no way to know

[rocky flicker]

April 2

[marsh ibex]

if it’s ever used seriously no it sucks

[rocky flicker]

Hehehhehehehehehehehe

[opaque sigil]

leaning into how stupid it is is the only path yes

[versed pollen]

30 billion Gokus vs. One Spongebob

[steel pelican]

April 32th

[shell yacht]

Toon power is basically just the what's the word, comically overpowered? Like Saitama and Arale

[fiery burrow]

The maggot can pilot Hegemol with toon force

[rocky flicker]

Honestly true

How his little legs doing all that

[shell yacht]

I hate my phone and my accent God damn it

[rocky flicker]

Whos arake

[opaque sigil]

pulling on tendons fr fr

[marsh ibex]

Well saitama isn’t really toon force either

[versed pollen]

This means that he can also pilot other guys like Universe destroyer 1

[fiery burrow]

Get out

[marsh ibex]

he’s just strong

[rocky flicker]

Who’s arake

[shell yacht]

Arale*

[rocky flicker]

Who’s arale

[marsh ibex]

Toriyama’s first popular manga

https://tenor.com/view/sailormoon-run-happy-gif-10106244

[rocky flicker]

Who’s toriyama

[marsh ibex]

Robot girl who pokes poop

[shell yacht]

She's a character from Dr slump, a series written by toriyama. She can just pull whatever kind of bullshit she wants out and she's insanely strong and durable

[versed pollen]

Fire

[rocky flicker]

Oh wait Nevermind I know toriyama

[marsh ibex]

Dragon ball guy

[cedar trench]

toriyama himself said arale would beat vegeta btw

she is just that good

[opaque sigil]

gag characters are often obscenely powerful

[rocky flicker]

Why doesn’t vegeta just go bald

[shell yacht]

Yeah she showed up and beat up Goku in a filler episode of super I think

[rocky flicker]

His hairline looks like the McDonald’s logo

I think if he gets a lineup he rivals goku

[versed pollen]

This is the only episode of Dragon Ball I should watch

[marsh ibex]

Pure saiyan hair doesn’t change upon birth or something

[rocky flicker]

So no saiyan has ever had waves

[shell yacht]

Their bodies don't hit prime until they're 80 and sayian hair isn't affected by anything like that

[marsh ibex]

they possibly could have waves at birth

[shell yacht]

Like we might expect to start going bald at 40 but they just hit their 25 at the year 80

[marsh ibex]

almost said something vile

[fiery burrow]

what

[rocky flicker]

Say it who’s gonna ban you

[tired oyster]

i forget are there any saiyans that were born bald

[opaque sigil]

if it's vile he's probably not gonna say it is he

[rocky flicker]

Who’s gonna ban him?

[livid tree]

those ads are peak

[rocky flicker]

You can’t drive

[marsh ibex]

Epic embed fail

[livid tree]

i would be happy to have them stuck in my head

[cunning geode]

i watched you un embed it

meanie

[marsh ibex]

no you didn’t

[shell yacht]

I can just not legally

My truck is also in multiple pieces

[rocky flicker]

Do you not respect the law

[marsh ibex]

🤨

[rocky flicker]

I now see why you can’t legally drive

[shell yacht]

Just hold still while I put it back together and run you over

[opaque sigil]

no logs

[rocky flicker]

Ok I’ll wait

[tired oyster]

just flintstones it

[shell yacht]

There's a thousand people in my immediate area that should not be on the road right now and I'm not one of them

[marsh ibex]

Nothing in audit logs so

Didn’t happen

[rocky flicker]

I’m texting this while on the road

[marsh ibex]

Anyways back to that image I posted earlier

That entire webtoon has fire art

[shell yacht]

There's an old dude on my road who's so old he literally goes 5 mph everywhere, I don't know how he still has a license

[tired oyster]

why no ice art

[rocky flicker]

Webtoon

[opaque sigil]

the moment you say webtoon it's over

[marsh ibex]

hisame talent only got artwork recently

[marsh ibex]

Don’t care

Already said it was one

[rocky flicker]

Webtoon

[shell yacht]

Webtoon = doomed to a mid adaptation

[cunning geode]

whats the distinction between webcomic and webtoon

[marsh ibex]

this isn’t getting adapted

[fiery burrow]

Me resisting the urge to ask where this is from

[cunning geode]

are webtoons based on shows

[marsh ibex]

webcomics can be good
webtoons tend to not be good

[rocky flicker]

Isn’t there that one Korean one that’s getting an adaptation

I saw a moistcritikal video on it

[tired oyster]

webtoons do have an inherent negative connotation in my brain but i've read too many good ones to hold on to that too hard

[cunning geode]

ctrl+alt+delete is a webcomic

[marsh ibex]

also webtoons are doomed to being vertically scrolled as they are tailor made to be viewed on a device

[cunning geode]

therefore

[rocky flicker]

So what’s the actual difference

[marsh ibex]

can be good
reading hard

[shell yacht]

They've adapted like five Korean manhua that were webtoons, I don't know about any more that are about to come out right now off the top of my head but they have been adapting a lot of them

[rocky flicker]

What’s a webcomic

[opaque sigil]

ew

[rocky flicker]

Isn’t Webtoon a company

[marsh ibex]

webtoon/manhwa are made to be viewed on cellular devices

[livid tree]

yes and thats good

[cunning geode]

dont you question my reading capabilities what the hell

[marsh ibex]

so you won’t get any interesting paneling

[shell yacht]

Also there's currently one anime being made that is a webtoon but it's actually from America

[opaque sigil]

nothing is above scrutiny wombat

[rocky flicker]

So what’s the difference between a webcomic and a comic that’s just online

[cunning geode]

why's everyone so angry today

[verbal ocean]

Omg slowmode gone

[marsh ibex]

the most you get is a long crowd shot that you have to tilt your phone horizontally to fully view

[rocky flicker]

I stubbed my toe and am driving drunk

[cunning geode]

direct toxicity is still simmering i feel

[livid tree]

wtf bro got better at drawing

[marsh ibex]

Thought this was a spider man comic for a second

[livid tree]

ctrl alt del

[marsh ibex]

the guy who made is this loss

[tired oyster]

gather ye power..... it will probably never continue because the artist got majorly burnt out and it's been like 3 or 4 years and they have other stuff going on now but it was peak while it lasted

[rocky flicker]

I’m on mobile

[shell yacht]

Snow White movie looking rough

[livid tree]

apparently jeff buckley (not the singer apparently)

got good at drawing

[rocky flicker]

HOLY SHIT I knew I recognised the art style

[lost zinc]

Is silksong a prequel or a sequel?

[livid tree]

1000 iq commentary

[marsh ibex]

Dunno, probably sequel

[shell yacht]

Sequel

[verbal ocean]

Swquel

[gray leaf]

webcomic is just a comic that's been published online

a webtoon derives from a Korean comic format, and is always vertical

[fiery burrow]

For timeline reasons its probably a sequel

[rocky flicker]

So Webtoon means manwha

[livid tree]

wait did you not know its actually called ctrl alt del

[marsh ibex]

good job you explained it betterer than I did so you don’t get snailed

[marsh ibex]

yea

also manhwa

[gray leaf]

no, not persé

[rocky flicker]

I don’t care about the comic I saw an easy joke to be made

[marsh ibex]

For all intents and purposes it is

[verbal ocean]

Banned for misspelling ,,

[rocky flicker]

All I know is loss

[rocky flicker]

Mahnwa

[gray leaf]

ah alright, gotcha

[marsh ibex]

yeah it doesn’t have to be korean made but that’s where the genre originated

[rocky flicker]

Manwa

[marsh ibex]

and sadly most manhwa are slop

[cunning geode]

wibbly wobbly

[marsh ibex]

I say as an avid consumer of them

[verbal ocean]

Orv,,,

[opaque sigil]

most of anything is slop

[rocky flicker]

I’ve never read any Korean stuff

[verbal ocean]

True

[shell yacht]

Like God of high school

[gray leaf]

I avoid webtoons for the most part, some rare exceptions

[cunning geode]

we all came from the primordial slop

[rocky flicker]

I came from love and god

[marsh ibex]

Manga has isekai
manhwa has regression

[opaque sigil]

slop can be fun

[verbal ocean]

Truerer

[cunning geode]

god is slop

[shell yacht]

The worst slop with the worst adaptation is definitely Tower of God though

[rocky flicker]

Wdym regression

[marsh ibex]

That’s why solo leveling is popular

[obsidian owl]

tag along as john challenges the pantheon of teachers in this epic revisit of the god of war franchise

[steel pelican]

Boyfriends

[rocky flicker]

THATS the one I was thinking of

[livid tree]

i love eating slop and goo

[marsh ibex]

character dies and is sent back in time with their old knowledge to change something

[rocky flicker]

So isekai

[marsh ibex]

usually is tied with game systems and leveling and hunters

[gray leaf]

this is just another tier of slop on top of all the rest

[marsh ibex]

No

[verbal ocean]

So many regression manhwa

[verbal ocean]

No ong

[marsh ibex]

you’re not put in another world

[livid tree]

that was so mid idk why for a good point of time people treated it like it was peak

[rocky flicker]

Isekai but the exact same world
that’s stupid

[grand ferry]

what is isekai

[tired oyster]

has there been one of these where they try to prevent 9/11 from happening

[rocky flicker]

Animation

[verbal ocean]

Isekai is transported to another world

[marsh ibex]

they’re korean made

[livid tree]

i mean the mamga

[rocky flicker]

I watched solo levelling

[marsh ibex]

They wouldn’t talk about 9/11

[shell yacht]

Regression is time and reincarnation
Isekai is multiverse and reincarnation usually

[tired oyster]

9/11 had international consequences my friend

[opaque sigil]

I'm sure there've been some american things that do that but 9/11 is really only that big an event to americans

[rocky flicker]

The fights are sick but it’s just the ultimate power fantasy self insert slop

[livid tree]

are you implying my people wouldn't care

[marsh ibex]

Good art
it was the grandfather of a lot of genre conventions

[verbal ocean]

Not always reincarnation

[rocky flicker]

I enjoyed it a lot

[obsidian owl]

sao…

[verbal ocean]

True,,,

[livid tree]

ok im just kidding btw

[rocky flicker]

I’ve never watched sao

[shell yacht]

Yes that is why I said "usually"

[tired oyster]

mainly for the commercial flight industry but yknow

[marsh ibex]

Yeah, ones that are tied to the US

[verbal ocean]

Oh i misread as surely mb

[rocky flicker]

My weeb stuff is designated only to chainsaw man berserk and jjk

[marsh ibex]

korea does not give a shit

[shell yacht]

Oh my phone thought I doubled up too many words and deleted the first usually

[obsidian owl]

sao sucks
it’s like
i am a defender of season 1 but that’s about it

watch sao abridged it’s better in every way and free

[tired oyster]

fair enough

[verbal ocean]

Real

[rocky flicker]

I have watched sao abridged that shits awesome

[cunning geode]

Korea is like 13 hours ahead of New York so why didnt they warn us!!!!!!

[coarse leaf]

100% true

[obsidian owl]

the biggest international consequence of 9/11 are 9/11 jokes

and the pointless war but

[rocky flicker]

Idk man I feel like 3000 people dying is a bit worse than unfunny people on 4chan

Also the war on terror

[marsh ibex]

Regression stories usually go “I was weak and whatever in my first life, but in my second life I will go against my family/group/hunter association and become da strongest with my knowledge and ability to grind levels super quickly”

[coarse leaf]

i wouldnt call season one very good either but its not super bad or anything

[rocky flicker]

Subpar at best

[obsidian owl]

well the first half of season 1 anyway

second half is the biggest yikes i’ve ever seen in a show

[coarse leaf]

well yeah ofcourse, just until it jumps headfirst off the cliff

[tired oyster]

so it's really just isekai but somehow even worse

[verbal ocean]

Season 1 is mkd

[opaque sigil]

see there's a way in which I think this could constitute a pretty well justified power fantasy

[verbal ocean]

The rest is bad

Alicization is alr

[shell yacht]

Isekai means otherworld, if they didn't move to another world no it's not isekai

[opaque sigil]

not with the grinding stuff just the knowledge stuff

[marsh ibex]

#sk-discussion message
yes

[rocky flicker]

So it’s just time travel

[verbal ocean]

Yah

[shell yacht]

With extra steps

[tired oyster]

i've seen some neat clips from alicization

[obsidian owl]

war of underworld is good too, i just can’t in good conscience tell anyone to suffer through season 1B and season 2 for it

[verbal ocean]

It's like good tho sometimes

[marsh ibex]

well yeah but convention wise it sorta is

[shell yacht]

There's a lot of common cliche tropes but they're not all the same thing

[cunning geode]

my favorite isekai is minecraft movie

[rocky flicker]

I’m so hype I’m watching that with friends in like 2 weeks

[gray leaf]

isekai could be so sick if it wasn't the same plot 95% of the time

[marsh ibex]

thankfully most manhwa don’t have the weird slavery bits that a lot of isekai do

[cunning geode]

unironically hype?

[rocky flicker]

THE NETHER
ELYTRA WINGSUITS

[tired oyster]

re:zero is the only good isekai i've watched and even that has its moments that make me frown

[opaque sigil]

that's something at least

[rocky flicker]

No matter what it’s gonna be hilarious

[verbal ocean]

Watch more isekai

[gray leaf]

recommend some

[obsidian owl]

i like the way that sao abridged recontextualizes asuna not escaping into her wanting to be a pain in the ass lmao

[marsh ibex]

Why would you do that to yourself

[verbal ocean]

Also I was on about regression manhwq but w/e

[tired oyster]

i'd rather not

[verbal ocean]

Some are peak

[coarse leaf]

dont watch more isekai

[shell yacht]

Even the ones where they time travel to a whole different time period it's barely an isekai. And then there's the few, not going to name them because spoilers, were they make you think it's an isekai and then they hit you with the planet of the apes plot twist and you find the Statue of Liberty buried on the beach

[cunning geode]

actually i lied my favorite isekai is uh Kill Six Billion Demons that one does count

[rocky flicker]

On one hand I think I should watch more anime and read more manga on the other hand I don’t want to

[tired oyster]

i need to read that still

[cunning geode]

at your own pace aye

but its super good

[livid tree]

room reveal

[obsidian owl]

don’t watch anime!

[opaque sigil]

media can functionally be an isekai without technically involving interdimensional travel genre is more about clusters of tropes than rigid definitions

[verbal ocean]

True, mamga better

[rocky flicker]

: (

[cunning geode]

very satisfying to binge because its not just good story and characters and fights, but beautiful artwork every page

[verbal ocean]

Well any source material better

[obsidian owl]

“men really think it’s okay to live like this” vibes

[marsh ibex]

also manhwa tend to do reverse isekai with monster gates and the otherworld bleeding into the human world

[livid tree]

it is doe

[rocky flicker]

I fucking hate emojis discord stop making my emoticons emojis

[cunning geode]

is Trading Places an isekai? discuss 👹

[gray leaf]

you can turn it off

[verbal ocean]

Solo leveling,,,,,,,,,,

[tired oyster]

i do really like re:zero but GOD it has its moments that make me fucking hate the main character, some intentional some not

[rocky flicker]

How

[marsh ibex]

Is the ending to star vs the forces of evil a reverse isekai

[marsh ibex]

Settings

[rocky flicker]

Hang on

somewhere in your settings, dunno look it up

[opaque sigil]

no idea what that is

[obsidian owl]

a classmate of mine was reading that i assume it’s ass

[livid tree]

it is

[verbal ocean]

It's peak art with mid story

[livid tree]

Really peak art

[marsh ibex]

[rocky flicker]

I am forever in your debt :)

[verbal ocean]

The sequel is better tho

[gray leaf]

enjoy :)

[opaque sigil]

I somehow doubt it includes many of the genre staples

[livid tree]

hi 🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷

[rocky flicker]

I watched solo levelling it was kinda peak slop

Like as slop goes this is premium

[shell yacht]

Reverse isekai is cool, usually it's immediately a lot better than a regular isekai

[verbal ocean]

It's not slop,,,

[dense temple]

No
Türkiye best🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷

[rocky flicker]

Look at me in the eyes and say that again

[gray leaf]

what's reverse isekai?

[shell yacht]

If you want peak watch Shangri-La frontier

[verbal ocean]

Welcome to Japan miss elf,,,,,,,,

[tired oyster]

i do like the whole thing of him not being transported into any powerful position so he was a loser in his regular life and is still a loser in this other world and has to actually legitimately improve himself instead of just magically becoming better and cooler

[marsh ibex]

creatures from otherworld enter the mundane human world

[cunning geode]

yeah no harems and fireball powers

[obsidian owl]

shangri la the bo1 zombies map no way

[shell yacht]

Like joker said above it's when people from other worlds get pulled into hours or Gates or things like that open up all over the place and start bleeding fantasy etc in 2 hours

[opaque sigil]

so pacific rim

[livid tree]

wait that sounds kinda peak

[marsh ibex]

Making it not mundane

[marsh ibex]

it’s just solo leveling my guy

[gray leaf]

oh that sounds nice

[shell yacht]

FUCK

[rocky flicker]

That sounds even more mundane

[marsh ibex]

Everything bleeds back into solo leveling

[verbal ocean]

True

i just realize isekai is lazy writing cause they dont have to naturally show you how the world works and can just explain things at you

[verbal ocean]

Read orv instead

[rocky flicker]

Imagine instead of a creative fantasy world you end up in Chicago

Somehow more boring and also more violent

[livid tree]

no i mean like what if an elf or smth shows up in like philadelphia

[gray leaf]

demon king has to survive everyday Japanese life (torture)

[rocky flicker]

Death

[marsh ibex]

Truly incredible reverse isekai have the fantastic become mundane in a

[shell yacht]

Isekai: The wizard of Oz
Reverse isekai: Pacific rim
I wonder what other movies I can apply these genres to

[cunning geode]

boy have i got the movie for you

[verbal ocean]

Reverse isekai can be peak, normal osekai can also be peak,,,,

[rocky flicker]

I hated this movie so much

[cunning geode]

👹

[opaque sigil]

that's not really an isekai thing it's a genre fiction thing, which also isn't really lazy writing. Tropes can be a useful tool if they're accounting for something that isn't really a focus and doesn't need time. Like it's not a weakness of vampire fiction that you don't have to explain all the rules to the audience

[verbal ocean]

Calling isekai lazy writing pains me,,,

[rocky flicker]

You KNOW that if you give someone the wand they explode and yet you’re RUNNING FROM PEOPLE TRUING TO STEAL THE WAND mf just GIVE IT TO THEM THEY WILL EXPLODE

stupid ass movie

[verbal ocean]

Lmao

[cunning geode]

yeah its terrible

[shell yacht]

Isikai can do great world building, there's a lot of them that just really fucking suck at it. There's also a lot of isekai that make the point of it being an isekai disappear after like the first arc and it's really lame

[clever socket]

why 95% of isekay have fan service

[opaque sigil]

because of much anime's target audience

[rocky flicker]

I don’t think I’ve actually ever watched or read an isekai

[livid tree]

i mean the way i see it is its like a school setting in harry potter where you don't have to actually explain things naturally but because the main char doesnt know either they can just get exposition thrown in their face

[obsidian owl]

sword… sword art online…

[verbal ocean]

Why do 95 percent of anime have fan service

[rocky flicker]

I started konosuba but stopped after episode 1

[verbal ocean]

Why

Peaksuba,,,

[steel pelican]

opens the windows damn

[rocky flicker]

I don’t find anime funny

[livid tree]

W

[livid tree]

W

[shell yacht]

What's crazy is Sao has good world building for its video game engine I guess you want to call it, but everything else about it is slop

[gray leaf]

woah the whole of anime? now i just dont believe you

[verbal ocean]

True,,,,,

[opaque sigil]

sure it can be used as an excuse to exposition dump

[clever socket]

I love the story sometimes but then and it gets corny and horny like bro

[rocky flicker]

Gimme a funny anime I’ll watch it

[verbal ocean]

Kaguya sama

[rocky flicker]

But I can’t watch slice of life or comedy anime

[steel pelican]

dragonball super: superhero

[verbal ocean]

Wtf

[rocky flicker]

That one was actually pretty good I liked that one

[verbal ocean]

How can you not watch peak

[obsidian owl]

the worst part of it is how characters are as strong as the plot demands them to be

in the first half of season 1 asuna is busted
second half she is legit just princess peach with a new make up

[verbal ocean]

But it's a slice of life romcom

[rocky flicker]

But that one was an outlier and it was only because the narrator in English was funny as

[gray leaf]

I don't watch many comedies, Ranma 1/2 (2024) is great tho

[verbal ocean]

Ong you watch dubbed

Elitism activated

[shell yacht]

Yeah I didn't watch past like season 2

Too much stupid shit and fucked up shit

But the spin-off was great

[rocky flicker]

I tried to watch slice of life anime subbed I nearly killed myself dubbed wasn’t much better

[shell yacht]

Fucking hilarious gun game shit

[obsidian owl]

they make it an isekai again in season 3 lol

[verbal ocean]

How

[shell yacht]

[rocky flicker]

WHY DO THEY TALK LIKE THAT

[obsidian owl]

he gets stabbed and then he is in this flaklight simulation thingy for 2 seasons

[verbal ocean]

What

[rocky flicker]

WHY DO THEY MAKE THOSE NOISES

[verbal ocean]

Eh

[rocky flicker]

Yeah those ones

[verbal ocean]

What

[shell yacht]

I saw some meme about him waking up after hundreds of years I figured something stupid like that happened but damn

[verbal ocean]

Have you spoken irl ever?

[rocky flicker]

The over enunciated expressions of nothing

[rocky flicker]

Have you?

[livid tree]

anime humor type shi

[opaque sigil]

afaik that's a trait of japanese speech

[cunning geode]

hopesully someday my group can breach through the start of Jojo part 4, it starts as a slow slice of life before picking up a LOT but we just havent gotten through that part. part 3 really spoils ya

[rocky flicker]

No mf sees something surprising and explains EH? IMPOSSIBLE

[cobalt stag]

this is so relatable #LOL

[shell yacht]

Also modern dubs kind of suck ass

[coarse leaf]

I wouldnt say dont have to explain things naturally, id say you cant explain things "naturally" in a hard..ish magic system that is going to be used as extensively as like, HP, you need to tell your reader how it works and what the limitations are somehow, atleast to an extent

[verbal ocean]

Sub better

[gray leaf]

i hate anime memes

[rocky flicker]

Nah I’ve watched Japanese shows it’s an anime only thing

[lone crown]

Relatable

[verbal ocean]

Kaguya sama has funnyvdub tho

[gray leaf]

aint the narrator hella funny

[obsidian owl]

uhh yeah so
i don’t 100% remember it because i watched it close to release but he gets stuck in the software alongside asuna while it fast tracks for i wanna say a 1000 years

then they wake up and they just reset it

[rocky flicker]

He’s very funny he made me like the show

[lone crown]

Powdered remove this New Knight role NOW ⛈️

[rocky flicker]

It pisses me off

[cunning geode]

[gray leaf]

[opaque sigil]

[shell yacht]

https://tenor.com/view/evil-laugh-the-witch-snow-white-wicked-laugh-hiding-gif-5885973180753673022

[cunning geode]

she didnt say that

[coarse leaf]

https://tenor.com/view/me-atrapaste-es-cine-its-cinema-cinema-esto-es-cine-gif-17729711691959966457

[lone crown]

Yeah it was for the bit of “role collecting”

[gray leaf]

specifically the r/animememes genre of anime memes

[rocky flicker]

I have watched chainsaw man

That show has good dialogue

[obsidian owl]

also kiritos flaklight becomes the only flaklight in the world that, when copied, doesn’t have an existential crisis and doesn’t destroy itself

[lone crown]

Actually you know what? Let me collect the grey role

[verbal ocean]

Midsaw man

[cobalt stag]

basically any reddit meme is horrendous

[obsidian owl]

because of course it would be kirito

[shell yacht]

What the fuck is a flaklight

[obsidian owl]

soul

[rocky flicker]

What

[obsidian owl]

but like

[coarse leaf]

ofcourse

[verbal ocean]

Alicizatjon stuff

[cunning geode]

great to see this channel stopped hating each other and finally came together in the collective hatred of anime instead

[obsidian owl]

hand wavy technological explanation of the soul

[shell yacht]

Are they making AI out of human souls

[verbal ocean]

Yep

[rocky flicker]

I don’t hate anime just most of it

[obsidian owl]

they are trying yes

[verbal ocean]

And they made Alice

[obsidian owl]

one succesful

[shell yacht]

[rocky flicker]

That’s dumb

[obsidian owl]

the project is called “Alicization” because alice is the only successful one because they got betrayed bla bla

[cunning geode]

was she in chains?

[obsidian owl]

it actually works pretty well

[rocky flicker]

The entire plot of sao is apparently chat gpt

[marsh ibex]

Isn’t it called a fluxlight or an I tweaking

[verbal ocean]

Your right

[rocky flicker]

Peak reference

[obsidian owl]

also there’s this magic system that is literally just the people in the software using system commands it’s really fun

[verbal ocean]

True that's funny

[rocky flicker]

Solo levelling

[obsidian owl]

i remember flak livht
might just be german subs beinng weird

[verbal ocean]

Perhaps

[marsh ibex]

Madness Combat

[verbal ocean]

Yeah

[obsidian owl]

[rocky flicker]

That shitty iPhone isekai

[verbal ocean]

Sao being sao

[rocky flicker]

I haven’t watched it I just assume it’s shit

[marsh ibex]
