[tidal shore]

the homunculus from Baccano did

[high storm]

💀💀💀

He quite literally was a regular college kid or smth until that moment

With a bit of ghoul spice

[fervent hollow]

yall

fortune wheel is biased

[high storm]

Aight

I will still glaze tokyo Ghoul dw

[tidal shore]

well, he had a pipe dropped on him, did end up fighting like one or two times, got a hot female dom gf beating on him

[fervent hollow]

im prob gettin tokyo ghoul later later

in this case

[high storm]

That is NOT comparable to getting centipedes forced in your ears 😭

[fervent hollow]

but the plan now is TPN box set this month, and later on orderin singles of serieses im hella interested in like witch hat atelier, case studdy of vanitas, and black butler
(would say frieren IF THE VOLUMES AINT OUT ; -;)

[tidal shore]

ok no my hair would go white from that alone 💀

[high storm]

Over 20 cms and eyes closed shut to feel better sensation

Truly a "wimp" lmao

[rancid ledge]

what did a centipede do in his damn ear

[high storm]

Crawl, eat, nibble, just centipede stuff probably

[rancid ledge]

and i do know kaneki manifested in his centipede form

also the kafka book “metamorphosis” is a reference in tokyo ghoul

a guy turns into a roach

kaneki turns into a ghoul

[high storm]

Yes it really is pretty simple but not like kaiju no8 level lol

Where his name is LITERALLY Kafka

One of most obvious references in history of manga

[rancid ledge]

it has a great synopsis at least

also kaiju? isnt that basically godzilla?

[high storm]

Godzilla is a kaiju yes

It's like an umbrella term for huge monster things in Japan

[rancid ledge]

oh yeah that's obvious

[rancid ledge]

have you watched ninja kamui yet??

[high storm]

Watched first episode and decided I don't feel like watching action that day

[rancid ledge]

ah i see

i didnt even feel like watching mushoku tensei cour 2 either

[high storm]

I don't watch mushoku cus I read it in manga already lol

Feels redundant

[topaz linden]

The manga for Mushoku is kinda bad tho...

The art's not bad, but they rewrote several key scenes entirely in a way that undermines their impact

The Mushoku discord even has a bot message for warning people about it

[high storm]

I am NOT reading light novels

They are fucking boring as hell

[topaz linden]

TL;DR from the end of it:

[high storm]

I am not reading light novel or watching anime to see the scenes I have already seen

[topaz linden]

To its credit, the manga has gotten better after Rudy finished the depression arc

So going forward it should be fine

But imo thats probably because the fan outrage made them do it
Before the depression arc, it completely redid several entire arcs

[high storm]

I live in blissful ignorance

And it will stay that way

[topaz linden]

Just be thankful it's going in a linear/consistent order lol

Been following the Ascendance of a Bookworm manga, and the way they're adapting it, while it makes sense, is chaotic af

[tidal shore]

this is so crazy

[topaz linden]

The full version:

Imo, biggest difference is the Paul reunion being turned from a serious moment with a ton of character development into something closer to a comedy. In the LN/Anime, Rudy and Paul are equally at fault when it comes to their argument, but the manga makes it almost completely one-sided in terms of blame. (Plus it cuts out Rudy connecting his argument to similar ones in his past life and choosing to be different this time)

[high storm]

Good thing I didn't read that part

[topaz linden]

But yeah, if you want the strange manga adaption, Bookworm has it 100%.

The light novel's so long that they're adapting 6 or 7 different arcs simultaneously, with a different artist for each.

Just so it has a chance of finishing before the author dies of old age

[high storm]

Fucking Christ

Bro thinks he is father of fantasy 😂

Lil bro ain't allat

[topaz linden]

Tbf, it's a really well done series story wise. And I respect that their goal is to make sure there's a "complete adaption" at some point

Means fans years down the road will have a complete package to read, vs something that stops halfway through the story

[high storm]

I will not be convinced you need 6-7 different arcs being drawn at once

[topaz linden]

They're adapting 33 light novel volumes 👀

[high storm]

That's way too much to even be caught up on let alone not be confused

[topaz linden]

• side stories

[tidal shore]

too long

didnt read

[topaz linden]

I'm caught up to the last arc, just waiting for the last two volumes to drop before I read through it

But yeah, someone crunched the numbers, and at the rate they're adapting it, going with a single artist would have taken them ~20 years

[high storm]

That sounds like it will be his only work

[topaz linden]

Since its a biweekly manga

[high storm]

Can the dude just draw cute girls or smth like any normal people do

Smh

On a side note Bocchi the rock manga is so dogshit holy fuck I am shocked how anime managed to be so good

[topaz linden]

Just checked, for both the manga artist and LN author, it pretty much is

LN author just finished the series in JP a few months ago. Curious to see if they decide to start another, or just decide they're "done" now

[topaz linden]

All I know about the manga is there's a fuckton of JP music references lol

https://www.reddit.com/r/manga/comments/yv14kk/i_wanted_to_post_more_bochi_to_rock_references_so/

Tbh, anyone who makes a decent adaption with actual story out of a 4koma manga is a wizard to me

[high storm]

No I just hate the paneling

Unreadable imo

[rancid ledge]

I will never comprehend that rudeus is the "goat" unless thats a me problem

[topaz linden]

I don't think even mushoku fans would ever call him that lol

[mighty cape]

They call Subaru that instead

[topaz linden]

Subaru I can at least see it if you can get past his annoying/embaressing way of talking

[mighty cape]

Or if you like flexing the fact he’s not on this list https://twitter.com/Reefmade/status/1784604896513167712

My favourite isekai trope

Twitter · Apr 28, 2024, 3:25 PM

/pretty sure it’s bs btw

[high storm]

I like fucked up weirdos in media

Some of my favourite characters ever are pure evil villains

[mighty cape]

Yeah. As long as you don’t condone their actions ofc.
A few of my personal fave characters are pretty unhinged lol.

Sato from Demi-Human is an awesome character

Hisoka is also pretty fun to see when he’s just doing whatever it takes to satisfying thirst for a good fight

Even if he has to play the waiting and tactical game to get to that point

[high storm]

Like Tequila sunset from Disco Elysium

Fundamentally broken person without much good about him

My GOAT

[high storm]

I like him in the same way I like Mahito from JJK

Just battle focused weirdo with weird remarks

Hisoka can be called out on too many suspicious things

[mighty cape]

Bruh
https://youtu.be/npvavt0870c?si=rPijcwMr32G1Af7k

This conversation is in essence

So much damn fun 😂

Dude is a sociopath that lives only for thrills. He’s not out for any grand schemes or master plan. He’s just bored and desperate.

[high storm]

I know Hisoka wouldn't like me tho

[mighty cape]

And I LOVE it

[high storm]

I am above the age of 18 ☹️

[mighty cape]

Come back with you’re stronger

Get your grind set up

[high storm]

Crazy how people like hedonism only in 2d

[tidal shore]

is it good that I don't recognise any of them aside from shield hero?

[mighty cape]

Hisoka would’ve combusted the moment he saw Adult Gon and you know it

[high storm]

I an on some real egoistic shit 🔥💯🗣️ only do things I enjoy

Don't have bungee gum tho

[tidal shore]

yeeeeeh individualist culture yeahhhhh 🗣️ 🗣️ 🗣️ 🔥 💯

[high storm]

I am glad world is not full of people like that

[tidal shore]

oh

just made me realise im a hedonist

[high storm]

My morals are as floaty as buoy in the storm

I un-ironically want to invest to American MIC to just make the bag

[mighty cape]

Helps that no one’s dying or getting harmed as a result in fiction.

Not just any blood knight will do tho. With Hisoka? Togashi does a super job at making him an entertaining anti-hero/sub antagonist that makes the melting pot of the plot all the more fun. You just dont know what he’s gonna pull next.

[high storm]

I just wish I also had powers man

[mighty cape]

Same with Sato from Demi-Human

[mighty cape]

Which ones?

[tidal shore]

the power to get laid

[high storm]

I would trade not being weird around kids to have an ability

[mighty cape]

Monkey paw: now you can lay eggs

[high storm]

Nen contract from Hisoka would be a restraining order

[tidal shore]

you really had to hit with the monkey paw mannnn

[high storm]

That's not terribly hard, harder thing is to find someone to stay with

[mighty cape]

Gimme the power to teleport

[tidal shore]

spoken like someone who's never been a sub5

[high storm]

I might like a girl for few months and boom she whips out the idea of poly relationship and I be like NOPE

Dip immediately

[high storm]

Sub5?

[mighty cape]

LMAO

[tidal shore]

don't look it up

[high storm]

I glad I didn't stick with her in retrospec

Even if she did mention it only like once

And maybe if female female male relationship does sound good in theory to some

[ionic schooner]

Is that like

[mighty cape]

Well. To each their own. But one thing is for sure, one person is a hassle enough.

[ionic schooner]

Cheating

Or somethin

[topaz linden]

Man, moved cities a few years back, this is the only one where I have to read the bios of profiles before swiping lol

So many "open relationship" folks here

[mighty cape]

Not if there’s consent. But there’s like…. A lot nuance to consider.

[ionic schooner]

batman quote 1936: there's many more fish in the sea!!!!!!!

[tidal shore]

wtf

[high storm]

It's number of partners above 1 and 1 which just ain't for me

[tidal shore]

hold on, y'all using dating apps?

[high storm]

Nah I avoid dating rn too much hustle

I either commit a lot or not at all

Can't commit a lot so I don't do anything at all

[topaz linden]

Open relationship = dating, but not exclusive. It's not cheating tho since cheating implies a lack of consent from the person being "cheated on". In an open relationship, they basically agree that both sides can sleep/see whoever on the side they want

[ionic schooner]

I don't get it JakeFromStateFarm

But ok

[mighty cape]

Meaningful monogamous relationships that last long are tough enough. Doing that with amother person is understandably more trouble than it’s worth for plenty. That’s not to say there aren’t any meaningful poly relationships but you got better odds finding a golden nugget in your local river atp.

[tidal shore]

wait, like actually?

[ionic schooner]

No I get it

I just don't get why

😔

[high storm]

It's a couple who allows others in their bedrooms and don't complain about it idfk

[ionic schooner]

Yeah

That's the part I don't get

[high storm]

Internet breeds degeneracy

[ionic schooner]

to each their own ig

[tidal shore]

imagine walking in on your poly relationship gf, she's with another dude in bed, and ur like "lemme join"

[high storm]

I don't get it either

[topaz linden]

Yeah, I'd say it's about 1 in 3 profiles on tinder, 1 in 5 on other apps. Not the majority, but common enough I gotta watch out lol

[high storm]

Glad I dipped

[ionic schooner]

😔

[high storm]

My situation would be me and 2 girls tho

[ionic schooner]

Cause you got rizz

[high storm]

I still prefer monogamy over that shit tho

[ionic schooner]

Ofc

[tidal shore]

what are you a rizz lord?

[ionic schooner]

Exactly

[mighty cape]

But it should prolly be noted that not all poly relationships are “open” ones.

Some partners of three that love each other stick to their own afterall, and it’s still considered cheating bc of no consent given.

[high storm]

A girl wanted another girl and a dude, and well, I am a dude

[topaz linden]

You are?

[mighty cape]

Actual ‘open’ ones? Yeah that’s rough

[topaz linden]

Wow

Shocked

[tidal shore]

fuck you

[high storm]

Is it not obvious?

[ionic schooner]

Oh

[topaz linden]

Joking lol

[ionic schooner]

Thought they both wanted you

Cause you're the rizz king

Ofc

[tidal shore]

I do wonder though why people choose to be in poly/open relationships to begin with

[mighty cape]

He prolly got misled by the link username and edgy pfp

[high storm]

No it was a theoretical "perfect relationship" which quickly turned me off

[ionic schooner]

Fair

[tidal shore]

personal preferences aside, are there any cultural factors that influence this?

[high storm]

Ain't shit edgy about my Glorious Blue Eyes King Madarame Baku

[ionic schooner]

Probably

[topaz linden]

For some, it's a lack of confidence to provide enough on their own.
For some, it's a excitement thing.
For others, they might just not be that sentimental about "exclusivity"

[mighty cape]

It really depends. For poly relationships between more than two people that really wanna stick to each other? They arguably/prolly got more love to go around. Sometimes it happens.

For open ones? Prolly what Jake said,

[high storm]

I just fw monogamy that is all

I am but a simple man

[topaz linden]

Oh yeah, I was talking open. Poly is a whole different story

[tidal shore]

personal preferences aside

😭

I can sorta guesstimate personal reasons

[high storm]

I am much like a cat in this regard, I want to sleep, eat, bask in the sun, sleep on a lap of a lady and be owned

[mighty cape]

The idea of poly relationships isn’t sth that personally appeals to me at this time, but if some folks managed to make it work and be happy, good on them.

Open relationship tho?

Same as Kvitsev

Turning that down

[high storm]

I would be 100% fine being a houseman

Or househusband is the correct term

[tidal shore]

house husband

🔥

@mighty cape since when are you a pomni apologist btw?

[high storm]

Fuck did Pomni do lmao

[tidal shore]

profile pic

wtf

[topaz linden]

Ask yourself not what Pomni did, but what has been done to Pomni

[mighty cape]

You wanna fight?

[tidal shore]

nah, just cool to see fellow pomni enjoyers

[high storm]

Nah, I'm good

[mighty cape]

lol

[rancid ledge]

any anime plots you like?

[high storm]

Time travel I suppose

Link click, re zero, summertime rendering, stein's gate

All 9 or 10/10

[rancid ledge]

oh damn re zero

subaru has that ability i forgot the damn name

[topaz linden]

Return by Death?

Or the darkness one?

[high storm]

Re zero is great you just kinda have to marathon it because of how much shit happens

[rancid ledge]

YES THAT

[rancid ledge]

bro dies countless of times and tries to make it right

[high storm]

Yuh it's great

[rancid ledge]

its like that day where you do something wrong then wake up the next day becomes what it was yesterday

its like a cycle

[high storm]

Groundhog Day

[topaz linden]

Summertime Rendering's basically just "Rezero, but ||the enemy is aware of the MC's power, so they try to game it||"

Which is honestly kinda satisfying after watching Subaru get to play on Easy mode for two seasons by comparison

[high storm]

I easily prefer it over re:zero

[topaz linden]

Imo, it's most fun to watch it after watching Rezero. Getting to compare the two as you watch is kinda satisfying

[tidal shore]

rezero with all the failed attempts cut out is wild

[high storm]

Pure shock from ||villian going "Haha bitch I knew you would be here"|| was insane

[rancid ledge]

re zero is fucking good

[tidal shore]

he just looks so schizo

[rancid ledge]

also subaru has those shadow hands

whatever that is

[high storm]

Pervy Subaru

[rancid ledge]

at least he isnt one of those mcs who get ridiculous op powers

[high storm]

Gets his hands everywhere on his enemies

[rancid ledge]

no hate to anos voldigoad but he got op outta nowhere

[high storm]

Who?

[rancid ledge]

just snapped someone out of existence

[rancid ledge]

from misfit of demon academy

[topaz linden]

Got op? He was born op im pretty sure

https://tenor.com/view/anime-boy-power-manga-buldeau-gif-20556768

[high storm]

Looks pretty hilarious

He looks the type of guy who casts spells outta womb

[topaz linden]

Literally

[high storm]

It's that obvious

[topaz linden]

https://youtu.be/2ufDG_7AAeY

[tidal shore]

💀

[rancid ledge]

oh shit

[tidal shore]

anos voldigoat
the goatest of them all
he wont die even if you kill him

[rancid ledge]

wait ppl can be born overpowered?

huhhhhh

then hes not stupid, okay

[tidal shore]

you didn't see that one?

[topaz linden]

It's literally explained in the first minute lol

[rancid ledge]

i never heard of ppl being born overpowered...

[tidal shore]

he literally explained it tho

[high storm]

Is he just a parody character?

[topaz linden]

Kinda. Less so later on, but at the start, yeah

[high storm]

Lmao figures

[tidal shore]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tQ3dKebemkc

[high storm]

Kinda like Helck? If anyone saw that one

It was surprisingly okay of an anime

[rancid ledge]

also yall, what about overlord mc??

Yall gotta love him right

[topaz linden]

Basically, Demon King agrees with his friend the hero to "die" to let humans and demons achieve peace at last.

Uses his magic to reincarnate a few hundred years later... with his full power and intelligence already there lol

[tidal shore]

can't make this shitup

[topaz linden]

He's peak imposter syndrome lol

[high storm]

My power fantasy of building a country AND being evil AND being a lich

[tidal shore]

can't

[topaz linden]

He's not really that evil lol
Just surrounded by evil people he doesn't want figuring out he's faking it

[high storm]

I would be evil deadass

Fucking nuking villages and shit for shits and giggles like I do in strategy games

[topaz linden]

At most, he's unfeeling since his race suppresses strong emotions

[high storm]

I don't mind sending a nuclear missile into a random tribe settlement in Rimworld

[topaz linden]

Manga for it got axed sadly, but I think you'd like Her Majesty's Swarm
Basically that. Woman gets isekai'd as the leader of a race of spiders in this Civ game she played... decides "fuck it, let's take over the world"

Zerg Rushes the shit out of the human civs

[high storm]

Lmao

[rancid ledge]

also anybody wanna talk about kirito?

the fuck is his deal

[topaz linden]

SAO Abridged Kirito is the only Kirito I acknowledge...

[tidal shore]

he's better in the novel

or so i heard

[high storm]

I hate when it all boils down to obvious death cult

[tidal shore]

A1 pictures jsut went like
stereotypical edgy mc

[rancid ledge]

then theres naofumi, the rogue oc

[high storm]

People in manga really do be "chickens pro KFC"

Filthy alien sympathisers 🤢

[rancid ledge]

what do yall think of eminence of shadow?? should i give it a go??

[long peak]

Believe it or not, people do this in real life too

[high storm]

Yet to see any media where humans aren't the obvious choice to side with

[topaz linden]

If you like isekais and overpowered mcs (which it sounds like), I'd say at least give it 2-3 episodes. You'll know pretty quickly if it's your type of humor or not

[rancid ledge]

also konosuba is also peak comedy

[high storm]

Because people are stupid but in manga there are like way too many of them

[rancid ledge]

like kazuma in jp is brutal and insane to aqua

[high storm]

In what fucking world do you sympathise with human eating monsters smh

[rancid ledge]

dungeon meshi

[long peak]

If you think you stand to benefit from it, and they won't eat you

[high storm]

Human supremacy of ingenuity and stubbornness>>>>)

Took us less to make a nuke than cultivate some plants

Always bet on humans

And maybe dwarves, they are rarely a bad choice

[rancid ledge]

ever thought of going back to jjk or nah?

[high storm]

Wdym

Never dropped it I just shit on it regularly

[rancid ledge]

ah okay

[high storm]

Translation was straight up disrespectful this chapter

[rancid ledge]

which one?

[high storm]

Fucking "Uhm.. guys?"
"Anyone?"

What is this scooby doo shit

[shadow knot]

erm, awkward

[high storm]

Literally marvel dialogue

John Werry PLEASE learn what context is

JJK translator is thd type of guy to say " so uh, that just happened" on funeral

Dipshit

[ionic schooner]

Do you think mahito would fr say that though

[high storm]

context

[ionic schooner]

Like what if mahito is at some jjk students funeral

[high storm]

If Mahito said that after killing Nanami it would be
In character ✅
Taunt to Yuji✅
Hiiilarious✅

Because that's what he did, be a fucking god silliest maniac

[ionic schooner]

Oh yeah fr

[high storm]

And in manga the fucking "Erm, guys" does not fit any of criterias

[ionic schooner]

Ig he wouldn't say that if one of his curse friends died

[high storm]

He didn't give a shit about them I think

[ionic schooner]

Does he even have friends

[ionic schooner]

Oh

[high storm]

Notice how when Jogo died Mahito wasn't even there

[ionic schooner]

Yeah true

[high storm]

Besides he they are disaster curses and he was a curse of humanity

As odd as it was, also maybe he just got spent in Kenjaku's maximum attack and just disappeared?

[dusty fable]

I think he should die. One of the only MCs that I think should die

[high storm]

Very strong opinion

[ionic schooner]

Isn't he literally a skeleton

😭

[tidal shore]

lmao

[fair wedge]

yurrr Helck was great imo

[fair wedge]

[next crescent]

He's just so happy

[high storm]

The tone shift was CRAZY

Literally went from "build a cars house to be demon king" to "You have to kill people you loved and been with for years because of what they became damned by powers out of their control"

Also Helck getting his shit kick in a few times was refreshing for a supposedly "OP" main character

[fair wedge]

ye

[high storm]

When he had to deal with that ghost swordsman it felt like RPG strength build crashed against someone who multi speced lol

[high storm]

Just lmao

Just caught up on "Go! Go! Loser Ranger"

Pretty good, pacing is great and action is serviceable, few good plot twists here and there

Not masterpiece not garbage, probably worth waiting more anime episodes for

https://fxtwitter.com/AniTrendz/status/1789952992130531641?t=mSRrqMrWcm3O1lWQLBqrOw&s=19

At least the first season will be decent

[outer scaffold]

Damn, cold, like the penguin (please know the reference)

[high storm]

Adventure time is popular dw

[tidal shore]

same
actually pretty decent
a good representation of what I consider a low investment anime

[dusty fable]

How is Blue Archive anime? It seems to have decent score, but I am sus about it due to game fans existing

I was reading an introduction and there is nothing that makes me want to watch it, except that I don't have anything else to watch

[high storm]

It's surprising how just "decent' it is really

I can't sing it praises but neither can I put it down

It's just consistently pretty good

I might even go as far as to say that might be a good first anime since many people watched power rangers in their childhood so concept should be familiar

[high storm]

I haven't watched it nor do I plan to but I've been told it's very cute and funny

[tidal shore]

cute and funny :clueless:

[dusty fable]

@tidal shore thanks, skip for me I guess

[tidal shore]

jk it's actually surprisingly not sus

[dusty fable]

you know, "not sus" is even less info than "cute and funny"

[tidal shore]

casually braking the geneva convention

[high storm]

Cute and funny is degenerate joke, fanbase is cancer, anime seems alright

[tidal shore]

the SHITTIM CHEST

HOLY FU

[high storm]

Didn't hear any outrage

[dusty fable]

Shit'em

[chilly lynx]

dang

[tidal shore]

skimmed first 2 eps

sao better

i sleep

[dusty fable]

it got me interested enough, so I visited MAL to read some reviews

Crying Emoji, America School Ya, HALLO HALLO HALLO, and Gun

Let's talk about story, its complicated, people who are not playing this game probably wont understand anything from this anime. I see lot of people doesnt understand how "real bullet" didnt kill them, what is that above them head?, why everyone looks animal beside the student, why only sensei/main character is human? etc etc.

This is advertisement for "GO F YOURSELF AND PLAY THE GAME OR DONT WATCH" i agree, it appealing toward long time blue archive gamer like me, who know the plot of the story (forgot most of it). If you want explaination, it ...

Love speedrunning reading reviews

[tidal shore]

mal reviewers try to use logic challenge: 100% fail

[craggy mango]

I like the animation, but cannot get into the story lol

[edgy bone]

I like stay night and zero

Everything besides that is too much for me

[tidal shore]

tried to get into fate

but alas

it wasn't meant to be

[rancid ledge]

the timeline is fucking massive

[edgy bone]

Not really

Most fate stuff is separate canons

Theres only like 3 series that are connected

[rancid ledge]

oh alright

fate stay night

fate zero

and acrophya

i cant say the damn name

[edgy bone]

No

Apocrypha is its own thing

The 3rd one is visual novel only

Its a direct sequel to stay night

[rancid ledge]

type blood

[tidal shore]

fate metaverse

[paper scaffold]

fate ataraxia is the direct sequel

[edgy bone]

@mighty cape @next crescent have some cute

[mighty cape]

Fate Stay Night is the core.
Fate/Zero is ‘essentially’ a prequel to FSN, but technically not really bc it’s set on a somewhat different timeline with similar events that may have transpired in the 4th HGW in FSN’s setting (don’t think too hard about it).
Fate Hollow Ataraxia is a pseudo sequel with ambiguous continuity.

Fate Apocrypha is a different timeline story where things branched off depending on the events of the 3rd Holy Grail War of Fuyuki.

[shadow knot]

fate/stay in the kitchen is best fate

[high storm]

I would have never throughout that the best, easiest 10/10 BL I have ever seen could experience the unfortune of being NSFW

If I were straight that shit would turn me gay

It was a masterpiece of how wholesome, cute and understanding relationships can be and how your partner can help you overcome your many hardships and prejudices

This author just does not miss

Due to rules of this server I will not disclose neither name of this masterpiece nor author's name, if anyone over the age of 18 is curious I will dm you

@edgy bone st

[outer scaffold]

You guys remember a manga/anime where a man who was experiencing a bad fate, only for it to be revealed he was in a coma at the end? I remember vividly a scene where at the end, the camera zoomed out from the protagonist's eyes to reveal he was in a coma, that's your clue (Unnecessary, but not as bad as the other questions i have asked)

[long peak]

thats pokemon, clearly

I wish I would be some badass shit in another universe

Like a wyvern/death claw/some sort of demon whatever the fuck

My favourite kind of creatures, big and scary and fucking cool

Such a shame publisher killed this game I LOVED being a monster

[dusty fable]

ah yes, strongly agree with that. I had a blast in beta and immediately bought it when it released. Such an interesting gameplay, basically Monster vs Hunters mindgames all the way. The existing similar games just don't have many tools and systems for mindgames (except for some of the latest additions)

current analogues is just not it

[high storm]

I tried dead by daylight but it just wasn't it

The difference in sheer feeling of power as monster/ your prowess as hunter does not match the insignificance of DBD

[dusty fable]

well, I tried it multiple times, some of the recently added monsters are pretty gimmicky in a good way, but the gameplay is too tedious imo

[high storm]

Also incredibly toxic and bad at fulfilling my power fantasy of being a string beefy dude

0/10

Michael Mayers was my favourite but maaaan was he ass

[dusty fable]

I liked how you could fight hunters even at lvl1 Monster, if you chose a proper grounds to fight. It had a double effect: because most hunters didn't expect you to fight back successfully at such an early stage, so I would intentionally alert an alarm and let them rush to me without any proper coordination. It often worked even against high tier hunters

Well, it was before they started adding OP monsters with a paywall

[high storm]

Good monster could body a random lobby due to hunters being bad on average

Gorgon was a fucking menace even at level 1

[dusty fable]

I almost always played a basic monster. Because others were too OP lmao

[high storm]

Even despite that there were some real unfortunate games where you just had no chance due to random counter pick

I for the life of me could not use my meteor Goliath against that RPG healer dude

On level 1 mean

He just outheals my shit easy

[high storm]

So Ghost/Kraken/Goliath?

Good ghosts could give you PTSD low-key lmao

[dusty fable]

well, mostly ghost and goliath. Kraken was OP too. Well, even ghost. I mostly played goliath, but sometimes brought ghost if I saw that I am against very good players

[high storm]

Ahahhahaha

Every monster could be pretty damn good with the right tactic

Although some monsters' best choice really was just being super fucking annoying

But thinking back about the game every monster was fun as hell to play, rolling around as behemoth was fun af

[dusty fable]

pretty sure my goliath was super annoying. My main rule was "surprise them", so at lvl1 monster I played as loudly and as fast as possible and let them rush me and hope that their formation crumbles. And if that didn't work at lvl2 I played super stealthy to make them get more panicky that I soon hit lvl3, so they would spread out more in search of me. Funny thing, it worked even better on small maps

[high storm]

Lvl 3 was curb stomp time

Always felt great

[dusty fable]

eh, I almost never got to lvl3 (and lvl 3 game mechanic started to become boring after a couple hundreds of games), like maybe 5% of games or less. I either won at lesser lvl, or my tactics backfired spectacularly

plus, maybe I was bad at lvl3, or because I didn't play OP monsters, but it was really hard to counter really good teams at lvl3, when they knew exactly where you will be

[high storm]

I would say really good teams wouldn't even let you get there

But yeah it happened rarely but oooh boy when it did it was glorious

Even as the hunter I actually felt the rare feeling of danger

At lvl 3 I am bound to have scored a kill or two on the hunters so I just focused on the weakest link

Some call that "being a rat" I call that "survival of the fittest" and since even seahorses somehow survived to this day it proves that bs is possible as long as conditions allow for it

[dusty fable]

well you see... my tactic was that I never intended to get there. So my behaviour was quite different from anyone wanting to get to lvl3. And since a good hunter team works on predicting monster moves, they had a rather hard time predicting where I would be, because at lvl2 I almost never fed on mobs or did anything that would bring me closer to lvl3. I completely focused on avoiding them, until they start to worry that their prediction model is maybe a bit off

well, ofc this wasn't a single tactic I employed (otherwise it becomes predictable). Just the one I enjoyed the most

[dusty fable]

wow, discord finally added "dont @ me" functionality. After 300 years

[high storm]

@dusty fable

Why would you care about that

Smh

Btw just want to remind any chainsaw fan that katana man isn't a "goat"

He just sexist as hell

[dusty fable]

there is a chainsaw woman? Wasn't a chainsaw like a masculine symbol with fallic context? /hj

[high storm]

So true

[dusty fable]

tbh people started to throw too many spoilers in this channel left and right without hiding them. Generally I wouldn't care but sometimes it hits a show I would like to watch

[high storm]

It just sounds funny out of context

Imagine someone actually thinks there is chainsaw woman lol

Unlees Fujimoto will make one lmao

[dusty fable]

why not. Meat grinder woman, if we continue the analogy

[dusty fable]

[outer scaffold]

Wow... Asuna.

[dusty fable]

the dude literally left asuna to go play another game

twice

[outer scaffold]

Well, it's his nature as a gamer with a gf to make the game slightly "important" than his gf

[dusty fable]

but then he goes and picks a new girl at that new game

also, if you want a true harem experience. Pick multiple romcom series and read them all at the same time

ideally from a single screen

[long peak]

100 girlfriends who really really love you

Or whatever it's called

[mighty cape]

As someone who’s gone as far as GunGaleOnline arc 90% sure they’re bullshitting anyways

Asuna is sidelined during it but Kirito didn’t just “up and forget her for another girl”

Like what

[topaz linden]

Think they're talking about the Alicization storyline

[mighty cape]

I haven’t gone that far. But I’m very doubtful it’s legit or as extreme as they’re saying.

[topaz linden]

||Sinon kisses Kirito in front of Asuna at one point||

[mighty cape]

At worst Asuna’s role has been majorly sidelined outside of Progressive from what I’ve seen

[mighty cape]

Pics or didn’t happen

[topaz linden]

||https://youtu.be/vkLsAwVHyIs||

^SAO Alicization spoilers

[fair wedge]

i forgot that was a thing

[mighty cape]

Ah yes. My nearly ||comatose Kirito getting a cheek kiss of gratitude.|| what a player.

[topaz linden]

Indeed

(Ftr, the jokes about it being harem are def still exaggerations. But the author does love teasing it lol)

[mighty cape]

yeah, while Asuna is the 'one and only' for Kirito straight up, I can def see her getting overshadowed the longer the main series goes on.
Most turn to Progressive, an alternate version of Aincrad, for the 'Asuna' route where she's the focus protagonist along with Kirito. The Light novel ofc. Staying the hell away from the anime.

[rancid ledge]

“one and only” my ass, bro just wants a harem

[mighty cape]

It’s fine. You don’t have to advertise you consume SAO via osmosis to me lol.

[rancid ledge]

hey im not gonna hate you if yiu dont like it

i like the concept thats it

[mighty cape]

I’m indifferent frankly.
I’m just not a fan of misinformation being spread to someone who genuinely asked.

[rancid ledge]

ah I see

[mighty cape]

Granted

Given what I’ve heard that the anime does compared to the LN form trusted friends, I dont blame some people for getting the vibes they initially get

The anime apparently adds some more focus to the harem stuff to the point where they’re slapping on anime original grils lol

[topaz linden]

seeing Abridged Asuna making it clear who Kirito belongs to is a refreshing change tho lol

https://youtu.be/rGOAg2-iayc

wdym got tongue

[edgy bone]

you dont know shokugeki?

it's one of my favorite non-battle shonens from back in the day

[tidal shore]

oh

[frank musk]

still one of my favorite scenes in food wars

[tidal shore]

yeah initially I liked it, but then changed my mind

kinda forgot about her tbh

[next crescent]

Had someone try and make me watch it and eventually we stopped
That first episode really put me off for a bit though with that one scene 😭

Good show though

[tidal shore]

what scene 🤔

[next crescent]

The one that could get me in trouble for NSFW if I describe it in too much detail

[tidal shore]

oh

so

fanservice

i sleep 🛌

[next crescent]

The kind that would be extremely questionable if my mom walked in

If it was one of the bath scenes you see in basically every anime, I don't think she'd care

[tidal shore]

bet your parents have seen worse tbh

😈

[next crescent]

But the scene with the super good food in ep 1 of shokugeki? Oh she'd have questions

[rancid ledge]

wtf is up with food wars

[tidal shore]

ok im watching and scrolling

need to see ot

it

is it the one with tentacles?

lmao i don't remember this

what the fuck

ain't no way

lmaoooo

this is interspecies reviewers level of degenerate

[next crescent]

Yes it's the squid one

[next crescent]

My (not then)ex wanted us to watch it and after that scene I was like... "Do we have to watch this?" 😭

He told me it gets better and that this scene was probably the only one really like it in the show

So we watched a few more episodes and I begrudgingly agreed but was still a little put off by that one

[tidal shore]

im gonna be honest, at the time I watched this I alreaedy went through something like 100+ degen anime, so this scene barely even registered to me 💀

[edgy bone]

it has a lot of fanservice but the shoneny action is great

if you dont get put off by fanservice it's one of the most enjoyable shonens ive seen

[next crescent]

I get put off by fan service because it makes me uncomfortable most of the time, so that scene just straight up made me want to hide

[edgy bone]

rip

[next crescent]

Why does autocorrect slight me so

It changes words after I've typed them and then tells me it's incorrect when it lets me finish typing

[edgy bone]

imagine using autocorrect

couldnt be me

[next crescent]

I cannot turn it off

It doesn't let me LOL

[edgy bone]

sounds like skill issue

[tidal shore]

huh I thought you wouldn't mind fanservice tbh

[next crescent]

It's a phone issue thank you

[next crescent]

What made you think that? Because I'm a woman?

[tidal shore]

i mean, u like women, right?

[next crescent]

I could?

Honestly I have no fucking idea what I am

[edgy bone]

I did not anticipate this topic shift lmao

[next crescent]

I'm probably on the edge of being asexual

[tidal shore]

yeah also that

Which is why I say I'm demi

in any case this is a surprise, I will keep it in mind though

[outer scaffold]

It has that little-like branch on the wooden floor that you like right?

[outer scaffold]

Or is it you like the texture of the wooden floor?

[next crescent]

Ooooh that's what you meant

It's a pain in general getting floors changed

We had to rip up tile from what would be my bedroom because the previous owner used the master bedroom as a kitchen

[outer scaffold]

It's just a guess (or is it something else that you realize?)

[next crescent]

And there was dust and shit everywhere from it

Spent a day cleaning and then had to have the wood cut and placed for hours

[chilly lynx]

all the floors are being ripped off as we speak

[next crescent]

I meant that towards long saying their floors are being swapped

[chilly lynx]

I cannot concentrate rn

[next crescent]

It's so noisy

I feel you

Ohhh, the noise, yeah yeah, i'm empathy for you, long

speaking of noisy

i think my neighbours finally stopped construction

[edgy bone]

I still dont have any idea wtf they were doing there for so long this building has really small apartments

but yea either way

here's the other big non battle shonen i liked

mid-to-late 2010s was truly peak shonen era for me

[outer scaffold]

Well, it HAS some "battle", would you called it a battle or not?

[edgy bone]

it's not the main focus

i call non battle shonens any story that has shoneny writing but the characters are experts in something else other than physically fighting all the time

speaking of

i also really like akanebanashi a lot that's currently ongoing in jump rn

[chilly lynx]

interesting

[edgy bone]

it's the only non battle shonen to scratch that itch for me since dr stone ended

and act age kinda

i miss act age

[edgy bone]

i did

it only has 6 chapters

i vibed with it

[outer scaffold]

It has more than that now

[edgy bone]

oh it came back?

hmm

[outer scaffold]

Read for free (and legal) on manga jump, subscribe if you need to

As of right now, there is a free first time only ticket to read all the chapters, so you don't need to subscribe

[edgy bone]

i know manga plus ive been following it since it released in 2019

lmao

https://tenor.com/view/deep-magic-lion-witch-narnia-dont-recite-gif-14879671

you had to be there at the time

all the drama

notlikecat

[outer scaffold]

Well, i just thought you don't know or at least didn't use manga jump, so, sorry

[outer scaffold]

What drama???

[edgy bone]

you dont have to apologize

[edgy bone]

around the time when it came out shueisha also shot down both of the main scanlation sites at the time

they were trying to funnel the scanlation readers to use their service instead

but a lot of people dont like the official translations

and at the time manga plus didnt have a way to read backlog chapters either

[outer scaffold]

They shot down the piracy site?

[edgy bone]

so you still had to pirate to catch up

it was a mess

[outer scaffold]

Oh, ok

[edgy bone]

i still miss jaiminis

their translations were next tier

such a shame

[outer scaffold]

Although, i think they need to add an 18+ mode, using id card, i already sent a pic of my id card to roblox, so be it

[edgy bone]

what

why is that relevant

BugCatSweat

[outer scaffold]

YKWIM.

[edgy bone]

no i do not

all their stuff is censored anw

[outer scaffold]

Really forgot to turn the tag off

[edgy bone]

they even removed a whole chapter from ayakashi triangle

that was so dumb

[outer scaffold]

That's why by adding an 18+ mode wouldn't take away the creativity (or degen mind) away from the creator

[edgy bone]

i mean it doesnt do anything for the creator

they still draw w/e

it just won't get posted on manga plus

it's not their main site ya know

[outer scaffold]

Why are they accept anything about hard ecchi, if they get censored/removed in the end

[edgy bone]

different cultural norms

[outer scaffold]

I know the manga plus site, where all of the text is japanese and no censored at all

[edgy bone]

they're fine with it in japan

japan gets fully uncesored ayakashi volumes

you can see the nipples

[outer scaffold]

Is ayakashi a hard ecchi? Like you can just call them Hent* like Domestic Girlfriend and that one uncensored sex chapter

[edgy bone]

i dont think domestic girlfriend is that ecchi

ayakashi shows naked girls in every chapter in suggestive poses

it's the same author as to love ru

[outer scaffold]

Trust me, it has one sex chapter uncensored, to the p*****

[edgy bone]

1 chapter doesnt mean much

[outer scaffold]

To have one super uncensored chapter in a non-hent* site, i would say that's pretty hard (No pun intended) (Just my opinion)

[outer scaffold]

But not as bad as mangadex with their hent* genre hidden away in its site

[dusty fable]

that's true the other way around too. But for the most part readers are fine with how women see men.

[craggy mango]

Konosuba recent episode doesnt show opening to accommodate the epic finale of current arc

But it still feels very pacey, i wish they have more duration

[tidal shore]

where does it end?

i mean where the anime at rn

tl;dr

[craggy mango]

They already show ||stealing Iris ring scene||

[tidal shore]

oh

there's still a while to go huh

[craggy mango]

Yee

The post credit showing ||the start of darkness wedding arc||

[tidal shore]

heh

ic

[craggy mango]

I think we need another 5 seasons (with current pace) to reach the finale

[chilly lynx]

That shit gonna take like, 10 years to end it

[outer scaffold]

Do you mean Domestic Kanojo?

[dusty fable]

no, in general

[craggy mango]

with second season of Explosion sequel, it will take more years

[outer scaffold]

Oh, give me more examples, i'm now interested (and maybe will read it one day .....hopefully)

[dusty fable]

examples of what? Depiction of men?

[outer scaffold]

Of manga who are like what you said, wrong writings for men

[dusty fable]

when I said in general, I really meant in general. That meant books

[outer scaffold]

Oh, ok then, thanks for the answers

[dusty fable]

np

manga wouldn't be a great example, because until quite recently, the predominant audience was male. That kinda adds a certain bias towards what stories are selected to be published and for whom

[high storm]

Also most weebs never hear of all the terrible 0/10 written by lonely wine mom novels

[tidal shore]

what.

please no.

Does anyone know which anime did the chainsmokers make an op or ending for? 💀 I swear I heard something like that

[topaz linden]

Just checked, no google or YT results, and their discography section on Wikipedia doesn't mention anything about any anime collabs.

Maybe you're remembering an AMV with one of their songs? They were pretty common during their peak

One of their songs did sample a JP quote from Granblue Fantasy, but that's the closest I can tell they've come to anything anime-related.

[high storm]

From more recent groups I can think of kaiju no8 who has one republic as ending, yung blud or whoever as opening

Maybe the person telling you about that messed up the name or smth

[fair wedge]

[rustic pivot]

upcoming Terminator Zero

The Terminator Zero anime series will drop eight episodes all at once.
Popular anime studio Production I.G will animate Terminator Zero. The studio is behind several of the most high-profile titles, including Ghost in the Shell, Psycho-Pass, Heavenly Delusion and Haikyu!!
Masashi Kudo, well-known for his work on Bleach as a character designer, episode and animation director, is credited as director for the series.

JJK leaks are so funny we are either on a doorstep of a historical moment or just THE biggest and most EVIL bait from author ever

Gonna fuel some good memes for a week:)

I BEG this to be some sort of a joke or a fake because PLEASE this is TOO funny

My neighbours complained about the noise I was laughing so hard

[long peak]

That one's fake

[high storm]

God I hope so because this is beyond me

[long peak]

The actual one is ||Gojo is back||

[high storm]

I just saw the raws for the chapter and

It's not

He does use the fucking doohickey

[long peak]

Oh

Well I don't read jjk

I just know people are freaking out because of the last bit

[high storm]

If that is a fake out by the author he will spend the rest of his life looking behind him

There is really no winning for him now

[long peak]

He made the worst choice possible

I'm assuming it's just like ||Gojo as a ghost or a vision since sukuna is getting his ass beat apparently||

[high storm]

It's literally one of two cases, both loses for the overall integrity of JJK
||Revive Gojo because fans want to and Gege wrote himself into a corner with how he killed him previously and undermine whatever his plot about him even was at this point||
Or

It's the last one for sure

Surely right

I will just focus on doohickey usage

It's so fucking funny

Thingamajig power up is real

Yeah Gege is contrarian

When someone pointed out that Gege changed his editor after Shibuya arc makes me think before that he was at least contained

My name is Neuro Sama... and I am a god. A god who has been asleep for far too long. But that is about to change...

What is this about? Some Vtuber shit?

[rancid ledge]

I hope Gojo loses i swear to fucking god

He will never win and he is never real.

[edgy bone]

neuro is an ai that someone hooked to a vtuber model and you can talk to her through the chat

it's been going on for a few years now

[sand zodiac]

Who would win klee or power from chainsaw man?

[sand zodiac]

Anya wins that

[rancid ledge]

mind reading >>>>>

[high storm]

Creepy

[sand zodiac]

Anya plus the dog I forgot the name

Bond

[sand zodiac]

Would signora solo original dragon ball

[outer scaffold]

Does signora even solo a lighting in the first place? Idts

[sand zodiac]

Lol

Signora def could kill kid Goku kid krilin

And king piccolo

So that just means she could solo the whole planet

But dbz Goku def wins

Depending on the arc

[chilly lynx]

What about Cell?

[outer scaffold]

I haven't touch dragon ball at all in my life, so i have a question. If they are being threaten, Goku's kind, without any preparation at all, can they activate their saiyan mode impulsively?

[sand zodiac]

Yes

Signora dies in the cell saga

And the namek saga with the original super Saiyan transformation fueled by more anger than god

Goku was stronger than Frieza with some help

And Frieza without training could destroy and enslave planets within hours

[chilly lynx]

The little blue guy whose name I forgot could easily erase Signora out of existence

[hot notch]

It's actually a really neat experiment. She's been getting a lot better recently in terms of her memory and overall comprehension. She can play some games (minecraft and osu being the big two that most people know her for). It's also a bit more in depth then just rigging an AI to a Vtuber model and feeding it chat. Her creator has also broken the laws of robotics so many times that it's hard to count. Refer to the video of her being given control of a shock collar for reference. There's currently two AI that Vedal (the creator) runs. Neuro-sama is the original one and the one most commonly associated with Neuro. She's kind of a baseline and can do whatever, sometimes her personality is all over the place but that's what makes it fun. There's also her twin sister Evil Neuro who most people just call Evil for short. Evil has a much more consistent personality and can seem more human than Neuro proper at times. Both have their upsides and downsides.

Am I becoming the new paragraph guy? I feel like I've been doing this a lot recently.

Maybe not here but in other servers too

[tidal shore]

thank you for putting all of this into a single message, I feel like the art of not sending 500 different messages to explain a single point has been lost to time

[edgy bone]

(just to be clear yall know the law of robotics it's just a scifi thing it's not real right)

[tidal shore]

I did not know that, thank you

[edgy bone]

leave me alone man let me talk in peace

😤

[tidal shore]

you aren't even on the offender list, don't worry

[dusty fable]

sci fi exists to explore such matters. So pretty much something that should be adopted, since Azimov was rather clever

[edgy bone]

i'd rather let the actual scientists figure that out rather than a writer that have no real experience with the irl subject matter

[dusty fable]

actual scientists do appreciate what sci fi writers do. You know, a lot of sci fi writers had a lot of friendships in scientific community. So they didn't write stuff without reason. Well, old school sci fi

[edgy bone]

sure, but not my point

[next crescent]

I'm so sorry

[edgy bone]

let's base technological advances on actual research and development and not some writings of an old dead guy

[tidal shore]

https://tenor.com/view/so-i've-heard-gif-1899418861963210299

[edgy bone]

wtf is that camera angle

[dusty fable]

unfortunately, scientific community is not as homogenous in their approach as one might think. And we already have a precedent where scientific community didn't perform that well in terms of controlling the sensitive tech (nuclear weapons). So it's good to have some additional view point.

[edgy bone]

i dont think an additional viewpoint of a person with that's long dead and had nothing to do with the actual field of study in question is valuable

you might as well ask a rando in a bar at that point

[dusty fable]

well, if rando in a bar is smart, then why not

this is a moral and ethical question, not technological tbh, so it's not outdated in any way

[edgy bone]

get them to become a proeminent figure in ai and robotics first then sure

[edgy bone]

it is 100% technological what are we talking about

[dusty fable]

that's a wrong approach. You don't have to be prominent in any area to be able to provide useful input

[edgy bone]

and scifi never portrays ai in a realistic way

[next crescent]

Idk man, today's AI is kinda insane with that new one that could be turned into waifus

[edgy bone]

how else would you have the knowledge required for that

[dusty fable]

erm... that's because what we have is not AI

[next crescent]

Jake was showing me it a few days ago

[dusty fable]

there is a depth of knowledge and there is breadth of knowledge. Sometimes you need former, sometimes latter. Often significant advances are made by people coming into a scientific field from other venues of life

[edgy bone]

that doesnt clarify anything tbh

it feels like youre arguing just for the sake of it

[dusty fable]

ok, we will continue later.

[edgy bone]

i'd rather not tbh

i feel like saying that blindly listening to a person with no actual knowledge on the subject matter is a bad idea is a pretty rational thing to say

idk why we're even having this conversation

[shadow knot]

https://tenor.com/view/one-piece-sabo-meme-i-ain't-reading-allat-gif-2236514285106777359

can’t let this opportunity pass by

[edgy bone]

didnt expect a one piece reference from you

[high storm]

Creepy

I want my entertainment to be made by humans

Even if Jerma at times seem not a humanoid organism he still will always be a better streamer than that thing

[dusty fable]

who said about blindly listening?

[shadow knot]

meme piece

[edgy bone]

thats how your messages came across

[dusty fable]

my message was that one shouldn't disregard an opinion of a clever person who put a lot of thought into something. Especially if that something makes great deal of sense

[edgy bone]

what he put thought in was writing a scifi stories in the 50s

it has nothing to do with actual 2020s ai research

if it somehow happens to align somehow latter down the line it's cuz of people that actual did the work properly and not cuz someone wrote in a book 70 years ago

[high storm]

Blah blah blah

Both got degree in yapanese

[edgy bone]

i dont see what that has to do with anything

[high storm]

"Can we get much higher ~" was the most popular thing to ever come from one piece and it was a meme

[dusty fable]

well, I should say, a lot of people who do work in AI research also read Azimov, because he is simply that well-known and if one likes AI and robotics such a person is likely to read his novels. So quite many people do take his points into regard, except that they are not yet applicable, since we are not close to having an actual AI

[edgy bone]

we have ai

youre just arguing semantics

what is shown in scifi stories isn't what we call ai in real life

[dusty fable]

well, semantics are there for a reason. What we have is not an intelligence, and that is that.

[tidal shore]

ai = real artificial intelligence
ai = sophisticated algorithms

[edgy bone]

current ai is 2 main fields

[high storm]

Arguing definitions like you guys compiling rival dictionaries
