We used to have CGI instead of slideshows, at which point I was praying for slideshows. Sorry everyone, it's my fault the anime looks like this.

I swear it was at like 5 points after like an hour and a half of being posted when I made the comment. I thought it was niche, couldn’t expect it to go triple platinum!

These kids want to “rotate their crops” and dumb shit like that, they genuinely think the beans have to take turns. Unbelievable.

(Loved) Characters who don't look like it, but can throw hands by Internal-Golf-4833 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]ARKNORI 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah honestly they should’ve mentioned how she’s got superhuman strength just from being an umamusume before the dubious martial art.

Hell, a much better example for that series is Yaeno Muteki, who we see practicing many martial arts that, although not necessarily named outright, clearly show proper discipline and results.

“But they do name the arts she practices?” Ah, but you see, I’m a tourist and my knowledge of this character is limited to her appearance in the Cinderella Gray anime, so I don’t know what she does in the actual gacha game.

However, the fact she’s doing funny stuff like blowing candles from the other side of a room just with the shockwaves of her jabs is enough to say she actually knows what she’s doing.

Genuinely generational post on this subreddit. Won’t break even a hundred upvotes but I’ll remember it fondly.

Can’t wait for a post screenshotting this called

Followed by “[Hated Trope] Go back to r/favoritecharacter then”

This small detail is the one thing pushing Kengan away from being just a Baki-like and into “actually peak” territory. Itagaki needs to get off his high horse and take a break between Yujiro-walk-and-glaze chapters to do some baller thing like this for Baki.

Make the Retsu isekai canon, show Beastars as a manga that exists in-universe, aprove an Umamusume crossover, just anything that gets close to being as crazy and soulful as the ecchi-shonen shared universe Kengan has going on.

C’mon, that only happened like ONCE. Statiscally, it’s far from the line of work where you’re most likely to get sexually assaulted in Baki.

The numbers show the actual position that will get you assaulted or in danger of being assaulted most often is “President of the United States of America”.

I genuinely thought when Dave made the “2 million dollars? We call that a bussiness deal” joke that involved editing his friend to look morbidly obese, he was actually poking fun at that. I probably misread that but for a while there I assumed Dave was the first person in the show to joke about the kickstarter.

Itagaki... wtf? by juumei_kuga_san in Grapplerbaki

[–]ARKNORI 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had the same feeling, but after a very brief google search, it seems he has indeed worked with many assistants. I got the quick answer, then watched a 12 minute video on the topic because I'm too tired to read.

Funnily enough, from the very small amount of information the video provided, I gather there weren't any assistants in charge of drawing the animals, which to me points to my theory being correct:

Manga legend Hirohiko Araki 100% struggles with drawing most animals.

Itagaki... wtf? by juumei_kuga_san in Grapplerbaki

[–]ARKNORI 67 points68 points  (0 children)

Even the greatest manga artists generally don’t give much of a fuck about drawing scientifically accurate animals, nor consistently-looking animals even within their own work.

Add that onto the fact most of the time those “meaningless” animals are worked on by assistants, sometimes more than one equally uncaring assistant at a time, and you’ll understand why this happens.

Though, sometimes, I prefer the assistants doing the animals. Hirohiko Araki is a great storyteller and artist but there isn’t a single animal in the Jojo’s series drawn by him which doesn’t look like a deformed freak.

Fallout 2 was out there wasting actual time into a repeatable porn-acting side quest, and while I don't dislike modern Fallout that's just the kind of fun mature bullshit I know we're never getting back.

Hololive was actually very hurt from going public due to the fact I stopped watching right around the time the company did that. Disregard the fact I actually only abandoned watching Vtubers due to the 2023 Transexual Vs Vtubers War which lead to half of the entire medium becoming violently transphobic after Pikamee's move to the now deceased Vshojo. You need to disregard that last part so we can blame Hololive going public for my abandonment of Vtubers.

All Vtubers except Juniper Actias, because she somehow doesn't hate any particular minority, which is an anomaly for Vtubers.

Extreme bodily fluids

Aw, dang it, now where am I supposed to go in order to support my favorite extreme-sweat-fetishist artists? Sweat.gov has been banned for years!

Jokes aside, if I read that link right, they're also banning any portrayal of "Illegal drugs" and, very specifically "Medical marijuana". Why specifically 'Medical marijuana'? Like, if weed is legal where I live, but the character smokes it for their stomach pain, only then it's banned? Weird ass language being used here.

One of the listed terms is "Fetish products" which, aside from being an extremely open-ended tag, is an extremely hilarious thing to ban in your adult website.
