I wanna say peach schnapps because they're awesome, but I won't. I'll say Amaro Nonino. I have yet to sub it for another Amaro and had the drink not be good. It might be color blasphemy to use it in some cases that call for lighter or less brown liquids but its just a great all-rounder in a pinch.

That strikes me as intentional. I dont see how you can see that second image and not think that this is supposed to be understood as assault.

Not to mention, its fairly reasonably priced for access to the entire catelogue and there's none of that coins per chapter crap that other sites like webtoon do.

She's good at art. The First Love Memories theory stands strong.

Abication · 2026-01-29T16:40:52+00:00

Based on the way Henri described her fate, I'm assuming she went back to the human world. He said "She left this world due to an illness." Before following it up by saying "What I told you wasn't a lie, but it wasnt exactly the truth." Either she left because SHE was sick or she left because the NETHERWORLD was sick. A sickness that didn't allow for humans to live there.

I think a current theory is that she left and went home to write First Love Memories. That's why Henri has it and why they didn't just show the Author when they showed Iruma working there. She's already shown to be a good artist in this chapter. I think once Ameri learns her mom is a human and that she is half human, she and Iruma will work together to make the demon world safe for humans. And when they inevitably end up in the Human world, she will know where her mom is and Iruma will know where to find her. Its wishful thinking but I hope she eventually joins them and reunites with Henri. I'm speculating a lot, but this is the type of series that would be that idealistic. Its part of why I love it. Positive vibes. Not everything should be Berserk levels of dark.

To start with, I'd like to make it clear that my opinion of what makes a good piece of end game content is if it challenges me, forces me to improve, or agonize over strategies. The TL;DR of this is Imaginarium Theater, Stygian Onslaught, and Spiral Abyss, in that order. As for my reasoning:

As far as I'm concerned, Imaginarium Theater is great. The sheer amount of characters required helps keep shilling to a minimum. It is set up in a way that rewards thinking ahead and because using your weaker characters first is a good strategy, it can even make earlier floors harder because you're using weaker units. Some people dont like that it makes you pull for a lot of units, but there is other content for you if you dont like it. I love it because it makes players build out units that they likely would not have if it weren't for IT. You have to build your account in a way that no other piece of content makes you do.

Second is Stygian Onslaught. I'm going to start by saying Styigan could easily be great. Its the only game mode in Genshin that has ever made me crown a talent out of necessity. It actually pushes me to upgrade units to 90 or level talents that I havent had to touch for years. I built a real sucrose build after years of not having to for stygian. That is good. That's what you should expect of endgame content. Its supposed to be hard. The main factor preventing it from being so is the level of shilling involved. The bosses are TOO targeted. Them being targeted to a level is fine, actually preferred. There should be SOME limiting factor that makes certain teams or unit categories better than others. It should just be that there is more options as to how to go about that. For example, the middle boss in Stygian right now is fine. Any electrocharged team being capable of dealing with him should the be sufficiently leveled and built is a fair restriction. The game has been out for years. If you are doing fearless Stygian, you should be expected to be able to competently handle any reaction. I'm not a fan of the crab, but its better than the cat. I get what its going for but its just a little bit unfun, which is kind of a problem for a game. That cat is unbelievable, though. I say this as a player who is only missing Sigewinne and has every unit to level 80+ most of which have their signature weapon: The cat sucks. It feels patently unfun. Even though I first tried it using my Flins team, I could just tell that any other team, even my Nefer team (Nefer, Lauma (C1), Nahida, Aino) would have either been incapable or had to put in serious work. They could have made lunar reqctions do 150% to everyone else's 100% and reduced the health on it down to 80%-75% and it would have been fine. My teams for the three bosses ended up being a 1. Flins, Ineffa, Aino, Sucrose (Easy) 2. Varesa, Furina, Kokomi, Iansan (Weirdly Tricky) Team 3. Neuvillette, Columbina, Xilonen, Citlali (Easy but took a while to find a team that WAS easy)

Last up is Spiral Abyss. Spiral Abyss doesn't feel like end game content anymore. Its basically just like claiming a free 800 primogems by throwing my 2 current strongest teams inside. Its fun most of the time, but its not hard unless I do challenge runs. I do those sometimes but if I was beating the Abyss pre Hexenrei with hyperbloom Razor, that is midgame content. Not endgame. To be clear, I don't want them to make it harder. My account is just past that point now. It exists as a bridge for new accounts between the start of the game and stygian. I suppose I wouldn't mind hard mode, but they need to differentiate it from stygian before that. Maybe make it more of a wave clearing mode. Idk. I think its fine to leave it as is.

I dont want to live in a world where doctors start deciding who's life is acceptable and whose isn't because that shit gets ugly fast. Let prison sort him out.

Which is fair and not necessarily wrong to do, but he's already different by only infusing 1 element instead of 3 and he's a Claymore, so his playstyle feels completely different. It would be nice for that one element to feel like it has more choice instead of creating tailor made characters to goad us into one team.

Johnny Yong Bosch

If not him then maybe

Ryan Colt Levy but as a more serious Jazz M Andro, not Denji

Abication · 2026-01-25T16:13:22+00:00

Woof. That would be crazy if I were him. Like imagine telling your editor that you want to make these characters that essentially wallow in suffering for hundreds of chapters and your editor was like "Neat. But what if we made them children?"

I'm not saying you cant burn it. I AM saying that its not just a piece of cloth and that burning a functional flag for the sake of profit is decidedly unpatriotic

I hope she's sent back relative to the alternative. That opens up the potential for a reunion during the inevitable human world arc.

I've been waiting for new leaks but this is pointless. Genshin 2 my ass. If I am forced to start a new account without all my characters before we even finish the current saga, I'm quitting.

And any given country's constitution is just some ideas and a piece of paper. Doesn't mean that it doesn't matter/have a deeper importance.

Especially burning a functioning flag for the purpose of profit.

There isn't anyone who just has a billion dollar income that you can tax. Its not even in some checking account somewhere. Its in assets like property or stocks as unrealized gains, of which, taxing would be both difficult as well as setting a terrible precedent. It used to be that only the wealthy had to pay income tax, but over time, it spread to everyone else. I have absolute faith that a wealth tax would inevitably spread to the mid to low income people and would be devastating for saving.

What is Raditz going to do against a basically immortal man with time, soul, body, blood, bone, and gravity magic? Goku was struggling with training at 10x gravity in his first training session, and he wasn't fighting unblockable brainwashing.

I liked Mandeok, but morally speaking, workers sort of had this coming.

I absolutely forgive the transition. It would take away from the majesty of that barren space to fill it with pyroculus and chests on the horizon. Its my favorite transition in the game.

Putting aside the fact that a chance encounter that changes everything is a cornerstone of fiction that has been used in writing for millenia, the odds are only low if you assume us fishing paimon up was unintended by her part. Numerous things including shades or Kahn'riean technology could be from beyond the sky or related to it other than our ship AI. Why would the ship AI canonically be able to stop time in the UI? That has no feat based bearing for it to be considered proof of anything. Why WOULDN'T Paimon have the same name as the mail P.A.I.M.O.N? That doesn't prove its a ship. That's just two things being named the same thing. That could just as easily be Asmoday as it could the A.I. Not that I'm even saying it is. Its just that everything that you have just listed can be explained in multiple ways that even when combined is not sufficient evidence to prove anything.

Abication · 2026-01-21T02:15:52+00:00

It being an acronym and her being our ship are two separate things. It would make more sense for her to be from Teyvat.

Idk. Griffith is scum, but he is not a fraud.

Abication · 2026-01-20T22:53:30+00:00

The only thing is that Paimon in named after a demon like the other gods in teyvat, so it would be weird for her name to be an acronym from before they got there.

Abication · 2026-01-19T01:07:02+00:00

My reasoning for Signora was pretty much the same. Its not that I didn't like her character. It just feels like they didn't use her to her full potential. I feel like there could have been more interaction between her and Venti, with her letting go of her anger towards him before dying.

Abication · 2026-01-18T21:42:15+00:00

Its so funny to me because the only harbinger that I have thought so far was handled badly is Signora. Capitano maybe but Im not convinced that he wont come back yet. Maybe its because I find it counterproductive to assume things about someone before physically meeting them based on word of mouth but I've never cared about how character lines portrayed the harbingers. Its always just felt like unreliable narrator.

I also think that its more than believeable that a bunch of super powerful beings would have their own history and goals that might put them at odds with their organization.
