adventure time is also funny bc it has plot beats like "guy from the nuclear winter dimension loses his mind to an artifact of chaos" and "the lich king killed my idol and wore his corpse like a suit" but the chars just react like "man that's butt-fudge that's mega donked up."
the reveal that MHA's deeply disturbed main villain solo queues in League of Legends gotta be some of the most effective recontextualization put to pen
thought people were exaggerating but this interview really is just "is it gonna be like Souls" "no" "are you gonna apply things from Sekiro" "no" "...this thing you're gonna add?.. it sounds like Sekiro" "no" "is it gonna have big Souls energy" "no" DAWG 😭😭
After the announcement of Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon, FromSoftware answered our burning questions about the return of its venerable mecha series.
someone will literally just die and on their deathbed say some shit like "i feel like splonkus i can't believe i'm about to punch out all the holes on my life card rn"
kinda obsessed with shulk's comparatively modest, slightly awkward body language. it's easy to forget he was literally just a STEM nerd who found a cool sword
@CharMayCry
people get rlly mad when you talk about gifted kid burnout but if anything it should be clear how serious an issue it is that we throw all sorts of expectations onto kids only to have them crumble later. our minds are too underdeveloped and easily influenced
@HuntersVolley
Its minor but I think it wouldve been amazing if Inumaki just used sign language like anyone else with verbal impairment instead of the onigiri ingredients thing for a gag that runs dry after the first 3 times
@armormodechang
i don't get why people genuinely still take this weird cut-and-dry overly logical approach to Cool Shit happening in media. the conflict is meant to show him persevering and being cool so he does. my thought wasnt "oh he's so armored" it was "woah he's fucking awesome"
Besides the famous line in Kamen Rider, "human life is more important than even peace and justice", or something like Jack Landors' "Heroes come in all colors", what are some Tokusatsu quotes/scenes that you guys felt moved by and will never forget?
This is one of my faves.
gameplay 👍
graphics 👍
roster 👍
now my only concern is content. i loved how T3 had so much. the tournaments, dragon sim, museum, z-item customization, survival, etc. too many fighters think they can throw in a single campaign and let the community do the rest.. praying 🙏
my favorite JJK joke is the idea that Megumi will try to summon Mahoraga at the slightest provocation, whether you're Sukuna or not if you tell him he aint shit or make fun of his shoes or his taste in women he just starts busting the hand signs out and someone has to stop him
in seriousness the answers are great and make me really excited, it sounds like they didn't forget in the slightest what the series is about. i can't wait to sink time into armored core again
@laurakristia
going insane at the idea of things progressing like uzumaki and culminating in us finding some crazy underground city where everything and everyone's been amogus-ified
it's cool when you write it correctly
the surface-level "youll be just like them!" is endlessly stupid but giving those worn elements a really tangible, human touch works wonders. too many writers just settle for those motions without actually thinking about what that could mean
@CharMayCry
it's honestly surprising how Valve hasn't seriously fucked up with the Steam monopoly. like yeah little things arent perfect but for being the biggest controller in PC gaming which everyone flocks to it could be so, soooooo much worse
(Jujutsu Kaisen)
so this is a fun touch...
in the manga, Junpei says "the opposite of love is indifference", and connects it to the Japanese (Elie Wiesel actually said it)
Gege clarified the mistake later, and their exact thoughts were worked into the anime's version of the convo
@rexrexrexregs
@AeragaX
it's riffing on how when Black Panther came out, it was seen as this amazingly empowering film for black people. so any time someone says "this is (X)'s Black Panther" it means that piece of media is very significant for that group people
@CharMayCry
also people misunderstand those invoking "gifted kid burnout" aren't saying they were actually gifted kids, the issue is that those people were TREATED as such regardless of the actual significance of their accomplishments. it isn't anyone being arrogant it's just bad conditoning
yall always bitch about the stagnancy of spellcasting and the oversaturation of evocationists but maybe a school like chronomancy could become more commonplace if adepts weren't so focused on reinventing the magic missile 😳
@KAMONORITOSHI
one of my fondest moments was first getting into MHA with a friend and the way we audibly went "HOLY SHIT" at that scene like damn that was really it with shiggy
I think every story in fiction needs a dedicated hater.
Just someone that constantly beefs with a main character for no reason. It's even funnier when the beef is one sided. Every story is made better with the inclusion of a hater.
gege with the sledgehammer commentary
if they're a man then im extra surprised because actually being loud about gender inequality in this way without actually making the women look lesser as a dude in japan is just kinda
do i say progressive?
progressive??
"this how you look"
@downthemoss
when will ppl get that yeah it's not a /crime/ but something being legal doesnt mean you're suddenly exempt from people being creeped out, disturbed and offended by what you choose to enjoy
apples and alcohol are weird but not repulsive and representative of unhealthy relations
idc about the caption i just wanna say sabat's kai performance is so fucking good
i love his distraughtness. it's supposed to be him at his strongest, but it's a weak ass decision & he knows it
his "I WASN'T HAPPY! ☹️" being not the feelings of the Saiyan Prince but of Vegeta
Kai: “I just wanted to be the guy who cared about nothing but besting you in one on one combat!”
Z dub: Vs “I was the perfect warrior, cold and ruthless! I lived by my strength alone! Uninhibited by foolish emotion!”
running the bakugan black market. it was all good until one of my client's whiny ass parents found out. school didnt just give me an internal suspension, they made me reverse every transaction they believed I made with every kid at the time. are you people kidding me
shadow goading sonic for 7 episodes like it was something seriously important when he really just wanted to personally fold his ass like the morning laundry still funny as hell
professor layton would go "congratulations on your transition my friend. why, your elation with your present gender identity has reminded me of an exceptional puzzle from my youth! would you care to give it a try?" and I'd never have been happier to solve it
@MS06ZAKU_II
between the world where someone can literally just buy a gun and shoot me, and the world where the closest thing someone can get to a gun is building a Codename: Kids Next Door weapon, i'm picking the latter
ppl practically brag about not being able to understand the jjk powers and i don't get it
i 100% get say, gojo or naobito because he overcomplicates those elemnts but i've seen ppl say they don't 'understand' nobara, or nanami's tech? he sees a line on their body and smacks it
The latest character crossover artwork has been revealed by
@SonicOfficialJP
- Elise won the fan poll and is seen here ice skating with Silver!
#SonicNews
Chat about the new artwork here:
when me and my buddy watched JJK and the Nanami flashback, he said he thought the bakery girl would die
it made me think about how cool it is that his story doesnt rely on some kind of tragic twist of fate
just a tired 9-to-5 man who found meaning in helping others
that's it.
layton trick question puzzles are like "scrungy bungus has 5 dollars. his mom gives him 20. his dad asks to borrow 10! how much money does he have?" and then after blowing all your hint coins and dropping to the picarat minimum the answer is "0 dollars bc he forgot his wallet"
@CoralReefee
hate this brand of image and/or post which implies bc a portion of a minority group does not care about being seen in media that must mean the thing is not important and you're silly for caring
every black person i know who loves dbz also wouldve loved a black character so??
@not_weav
ive literally been saying this! on paper "guy who plays the supreme badass but actually has a severe inferiority complex and is afraid of being seen as pathetic" is literally perfectly competent villain writing the biggest issue is they played him so straight people expected more
ppl saying "deku" no go deeper. osamu mikumo
he stays engaging cuz the story commits insanely hard to his underdog struggle. nothing "evens the field" for him. his "powers" are shared by like 5 other ppl. dude just has good teachers but otherwise? he has to SWEAT and STRATEGIZE
I wish we could just get an MC that isn’t special or have a demon inside them or have a special family or apart of famous clan just a nobody that becomes a somebody
"to whom it may concern; one "milla basset" has brought to light an event of great significance in shang mu that requires my attention. i will be absent for the day with her along as an aide so that i may address this urgent matter."
'nother cute thought i had

@Newwaveplusplus
Yeah the camera seems to be extra sensitive? it seems to be on purpose but I have a few friends who get sick easily with stuff like that so I hope there's tuning options in the final game
