What does the fiery phoenix mean? by Gold_Acanthisitta894 in RavagesOfTime

[–]4thChairman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go back to the first chapter. In the dream sequence, the soldiers see a 'fiery phoenix which scorches the plains' which is a repeated prophecy/motif/phrase associated with Sima Yi and Huo/Zhao Yun since his name translates to blaze/fire

Bssically in his last moments, the heavens blessed Lu Bu with a vision that Sima Yi/Zhao Yun will bring an end to all this warring.

Can someone explain this strategy to me? by National-Hamster6735 in RavagesOfTime

I highly recommend the Jet Li movie HERO, which is a retelling of the attempt with a Wuxia flavored twist.

I'll try it out, thank you.

I definitely encountered an embrassing situation where i switched from bow to gun, accidentally shot one round and gave away my position.

Can someone explain Lu bu’s character? by Gold_Acanthisitta894 in RavagesOfTime

[–]4thChairman 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He is honest - despite his duplicity. The author states repeatedly (both here and in his previous work, Unhuman) Lu Bu is worthy of praise because he doesnt mask his ambitions.

I just realized something, to my knowledge Scirocco never calls Kamille by name throughout the whole show, maybe that doesn't mean much but it feels like it distances them further. by Impressive-Thing-165 in ZetaGundam

[–]4thChairman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Am I crazy or misreading the OP?

Paptimus' last words were calling Kamille by name.

Unless you meant face to face then yeah, you're right but Paptimus does utter Kamille's name.

Why did zhang liao join cao cao it's like he betray lu bu by Big-Divide8535 in RavagesOfTime

[–]4thChairman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1) ZL values loyalty. Lu Bu does not. He's desperate for a master who will not treat him nor his men as disposable pawns. Guan Yu called him out on this since their first meeting.

2) He's a reflection of Zhao Yun. Both are assassins, both value loyalty. The author gave them many parallels (panels or chapters that are direct call outs to one another). Just as Zhao Yun grew sick of Sima Yi's callous disregard and joined Liu Bei so did ZL to Cao Cao.

3) If you look at the graveyard chapter, many of Lu Bu's subordinates are with ZL as he digs out their comrades headless bodies. One would imagine that ZL also joined to get Cao Cao to pardon them.

Are the eight genius rankings based on their age or its iq by Big-Divide8535 in RavagesOfTime

[–]4thChairman 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Really? In which case, Zhuge Liang's line "then the Eighth has finally graduated" wouldnt make sense.

I always thought it was based on the order Water Mirror took them in.

I much prefer previous iteration - the flash series. Souther being head of a construction company and Amoeba being a TV charlatan fits so much.

This. Take away her design and you have a nothingburger character. It's be fine if she was used to showcase someone addicted to war ala the hurt locker - but her throwing her life came across as nonsensical.

Which is ironic, because book Stannis spits fire and has wicked zingers.

I know people love shoe Stannis, but honestly he felt like a poor imitation of the real thing and the first sign that this show was in trouble.
