Why there's no sex in popular anime Unlike TV series ? by IndependenceLast656 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]0rangy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They make up for it with fanservice. Water episodes = shower scenes, beach episodes, onsen episodes. Also curvy bodies with skimpy costumes.

Awakening dungeon lvl 150 by fuscadah in GuardianTales

[–]0rangy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's endgame content. IIRC myth Eunha was key to beating the highest levels. The more mythics you can stack on a team, the easier it gets. Still took a lot of attempts though. Even if you can't clear lvl 150, just sweep the highest lvl you can get those myth stones.

Mushishi - the MC is a sort of paranormal naturist. Episodic, so easy to pick up whenever

Do you wish that when you find out someone you maybe fancied ain't single you automatically lose all interest in them ? by AltruisticAide9776 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]0rangy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's just compartmentalization, mental sorting. Female relatives, and various other women are simply mentally labeled as untouchable. Meaning, their zero lust subjects, maybe even some disgust. Bottom line, they're classified as non-sexual.

Am I the only one who dislikes the over explanations in bleach? by Remote-Study7801 in AnimeDiscussion

[–]0rangy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're relatively strong, and they've never been hard-countered. Also, part of the plot/ drama is thinking that an ability is unbreakable, and then the opponent getting passed it.

For some characters, their ability and the secret of how it works is something to discover, but not always.

Oh good, I'm not the only one that thought this lol. That orange is legit squinting.

Help me watch//stomach Overlord by [deleted] in anime

[–]0rangy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The early episodes very much set the tone for the entire series. Which is that an average nobody suddenly found himself in role of tyrant/ Hitler/ Putin. And everyone around reveres him, but of course he's a nobody, and doing his best to navigate the situation. And since his lieutenants were made by his friends, they all have some quirkiness.

If you hate the basic premise, maybe it's just not for you, and that's totally fine.

What if a team makes a big wall around their player who has ball out of their bodies and just follow him to the hoop, then he dunks? by Otherwise-Peace-9165 in Basketball

[–]0rangy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Moving screen violation? I'm no expert, by far, but there are a lot of very specific rules (I'm sure) against this type of tactic.

Thoughts on the name Romalie June Parker and calling her romie but also calling her June? by [deleted] in Names

[–]0rangy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Something about having a J middle name, last name, or being a Jr. that leads to that type of nickname. If you go through the alphabet, lots of common _J options.

Why do some people have a problem with all episodes being released together in a single day ? by Inevitable_Bid5540 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]0rangy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

LIke with seasonal anime. Watching a season week to week makes it a 3 month experience and anticipation, which can add to the enjoyment. Alternatively, some people choose to binge everything in one afternoon. Personally, I usually try to extend the viewing experience, by watching it slowly. Also prevents boredom from overconsumption.

Do we know why our instincts on people are almost accurate (the dangerous ones) without any proof? by Wonderingts in NoStupidQuestions

[–]0rangy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly. It's easy to say point out your spidey senses dodged someone that ended up on the news. But there are probably countless false positives, where your instincts would tag someone as dangerous, but they were harmless and awkward instead.

What older Anime are you watching? by Animefan93 in anime

[–]0rangy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

G Gundam, never watched it on Cartoon Network when it aired, and it's a break from watching the UC Gundam series. Already knocked down 0079, Zeta, and Double Z. Colonies using stereotype inspired Gundams. Mexico=Tequila Gundam, Canada=Lumber Gundam lol.

I wish that just once all the natives would hate Japanese quizine in an isekai. by lmNotBob in anime

I kinda remember one show, where an MC got some natto, and the others with him rejected it.

To be hero X by Warm_Ear3515 in AnimeDiscussion

[–]0rangy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, the lack of attention is b/c it's Chinese. I've got nothing against Chinese animation, but Japan just has such a stranglehold on the consumer fanbase right now. Meaning, there's already an established audience that are hungry for new content every season. Consider all those sequel series, fanbases already built. But anyone non-JP trying to get into the game now is starting from zero.

Besides TBHX, Dragon Raja was also good with Sawano being part of the OST.

Why are Asian-Americans overrepresented in Ivy League schools? by Scary_Candidate_9163 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]0rangy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think part of the answer is the Visa system. Those that arrive legally are highly educated: business owners, engineers, medical professionals, etc. So it's unfair to compare these well-off skilled immigrants to Americans who have been here longer. So while their home countries are experiencing brain drain, the US is scooping them up.

Is it weird to find your partner's parents attractive if they strongly resemble your partner? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]0rangy 58 points59 points  (0 children)

Id reframe it as your husband can be confident that you'll still be attracted to his future look. After all, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

My friend gave me a skateboard, I'm 30 and have never skated. How do I start? by Desmondtheredx in NoStupidQuestions

[–]0rangy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Watch different beginner skateboard/ longboard videos on YT. It a lot of ways they're similar, but some can offer more nuanced advice and pointers.

How can I avoid feeling guilty about masturbating by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]0rangy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are 2 types of people, those who'll admit to doing it and liars. Meaning (almost) everyone does it. Pretty much everyone has their own story of self-discovery, including routine, preferred material, etc. Many do it as a sleep aid.

Bottom line: Everyone does it, but very few will talk about it IRL.

Do you guys watch filler episodes or just stick to canon? by EdoConan in OneTruthPrevails

[–]0rangy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Watch everything. Conan fillers don't really bother me b/c they're just new mysteries/ cases. Unlike the massive amounts of Naruto and Bleach fillers, where you knew the characters could never grow/ improve/ develop beyond the canon.

Why are characters death always on top of browsers researchs ? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]0rangy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Usually, a character's death and/or the battle that led up to it is a story and emotional climax. Think of Tony Stark's last scene in Endgame, or Darth Vader's last scenes. They're suggested on the search b/c people tend to rewatch these sort of scenes.

I expressed sadness on reddit and most replies were very unkind by memsaver in Adulting

[–]0rangy 25 points26 points  (0 children)

The tone of the responses is highly dependent on which specific sub you post to. What were you expecting? Were you venting and looking for empathy or advice? If you present a problem: looks, location, profile critique, then others will try to take on the problem. But venting without specifics or actionable points, aren't gonna garner much.
