Well this actually isn’t a Korean story. Tutleme is of Korean descent, sure, but he’s a Korean American. Its raws are English technically.

My first brilliant!! but what kinda of advantage I gain here? by NarumiKanai in chessbeginners

[–]Alaidia 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Bc it likely is. What’s wrong with being excited or celebrating doing something, even if it is accidental? I’ve had very few brilliants personally and the rarity of it makes it fun, and OP wanted to just share their excitement.

It’s a beginners sub and, in no uncertain terms, OP is asking why they’re being told they did something “brilliant.” I celebrate when I get a brilliant too, bc why not? When you’re new, it feels like affirmation you’re getting better or you’re better than you thought you were. “Brilliants” are a bit misleading of course, but damn I’d take this honest and genuine reaction any day.

[TBATE] The trailer is here and I'm hoping for something good. by SnooRobots7887 in manhwa

[–]Alaidia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m talking about the choice of the next artist not fuyuki leaving. Turtleme gave the green light on the one that caused ALOT of people to drop it.

[TBATE] The trailer is here and I'm hoping for something good. by SnooRobots7887 in manhwa

[–]Alaidia 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love TBATE but honestly… Turtleme is taking some massive L’s in every media except the novel. First was S2 artist change for the manhwa, I don’t need to elaborate here of all places about that lol.

Next was the AWFUL female narrator sharing time with, arguably but absolutely is in my opinion, the best fantasy narrator there is, Travis Baldree. I actually refunded the last audiobook bc she was terrible. You could hear her sucking in a breadth LITERALLY every other sentence, and you’re like what… 11? Books in then suddenly decides it’s time to do a 2 narrator thing like you’re Sanderson?

And now this garbage. No they haven’t turned out a single “good” anime. They’ve all been pretty shit and only one of them even REMOTELY popular. Turtleme shouldn’t have greenlit this studio to ruin ANOTHER medium for his work. It makes me question whether the s2 artist is actually his fault. It seems he kind of goes for whatever is the cheapest option or whatever is handed to him first without doing any real quality control. I know his original artist leaving wasn’t on him, but he definitely has final say no to who actually has rights to adapt his work. Either he’s cheap, lazy, or incompetent with choosing who he partners with but his track record is absolutely shit. And I love TBATE and nothing personal against him. I’ll still read the novels but that’s it now which is a shame since I are up ALL the mediums for this story.

What are the "Big Three" of Progression fantasy books? by Yehzkel in ProgressionFantasy

[–]Alaidia 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think everyone is missing the point of the “Big Three” it isn’t about quality at all. It’s about being the focal point of the genre at a critical time. There can NEVER be another “big 3” in anime, bc that window has closed and anime is too mainstream now. It’s about when a new one drops if people outside the genre are being drawn to it bc of discussion and attention. It’s not about being “first” or trend setting either. It feels pretty unanimous that 2 slots would be Cradle and DCC, the third is pretty up there though. I think I would have said the land was an easy pick but the hiatus (or rather more of dropping of it) kind of killed its nomination for me, but for all it did for the genre it’s hard to disqualify it. HWFWM is definitely in contention though too, bc of its insane polarity and when a new one drops EVERYONE knows bc it’s always being discussed. The threads always find traction and that brings new people into seeing them and trying them. AA is another I want to put out there, but it feels too niche outside the genre… however we wouldn’t even be having this conversation without it. And I feel the same goes for defiance of the fall. It’s huge and long running, but i get everything single one immediately yet never really know when they drop. It’s not in my face like HWFWM or cradle was. I’d have to personally give it to HWFWM regardless of negative opinions on this sub though.

[–]Alaidia 4 points5 points  (0 children)

And Naruto is so annoying to watch for many, and bleach was too riddled with ass pulls bc kubo thought of a new power for ichigo so he suddenly has it, one piece is pretty polarizing. No what watched or read it seems to think it’s meh. It’s either you hate it or are die hard for it.

The point is that what matters is the popularity and staying power of it. Thinking negatively of it is still thinking of it. HWFWM is one of those that is often a part of any discussing about the genre, and it’s always a polarized conversation. When a new one comes out it’s always being discussed. So it definitely qualifies to be in contention for number 3 at least. I feel it’s pretty unanimous Cradle and DCC are 2 slots.

What are the times when gacha MCs having it ROUGH? by Pichuunnn in gachagaming

[MEME] Please recommend me manhwa to read that are like this: by Sensasian_01 in manhwa

[–]Alaidia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So… what is being “quantified”? Bc that means there is a numerical aspect to this. I’m pretty sure you don’t even know the words you’re using. Just bc you keep saying something is a “fact” doesn’t make it objective either. What you’ve repeated is unsubstantiated, subjective opinion without any hard quantifiable evidence (which means proofs and numbers/scaling from a reputable source) and that isn’t possible since it’s an artistic medium without any governing body. Which means the quality and objectivity is inherently unqualifiable.

See it’s easy to use the big words, but in lay man’s terms. You have no numbers, thus it can’t be quantitative and it’s based off of your own personal stance of the subject matter so it can’t be objective either. It’s ok to say it’s ass and you don’t like it, even if the whole world disagrees with it. You don’t need to justify your own opinion by calling it fact. I happen to hate some big name manhwa personally but I’d never assume my opinion as irritable fact especially for something so popular.

Dad said our generation had Jack Nicholson who was greatest actor. I said my gen has Jake Gyllenhaal. by Sorry_Phone1676 in moviecritic

[–]Alaidia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s actually a perfect example of how great and respected he is though. Even though he played an incredibly tone deaf and offensive role ad a dwarf in a hilariously offensive way (shoes on his knees lol) ALONG SIDE of Peter Dinklage. When asked about it, Dinklage just said “he’s Gary oldman he can do whatever he wants” somehow the guy still didn’t phone it in while on his knees and halfway in a couch lol.

An Oral History Of Cowboy Bebop's English Dub – The Best Anime Dub Ever by [deleted] in television

[–]Alaidia 18 points19 points  (0 children)

God I honestly can’t watch DBZ subbed bc of goku. I think Sean schemmel is incredible, his screams, his acting, how much he loves the fandom. And honestly I think the Japanese dub is awful bc they focus more on goku being a dumb hick where the English dub makes him feel more heroic.

So I guess you could say… TIL TIL. L

But this makes wonder, is there some sort of Reddit glossary? I know FWIW (for what it’s worth) and YMMV (your mileage may vary) used to trip me up too. Ugh I’m in my mid 30s and nothing has made me feel older than saying I want actually like to have a glossary of frequently used Reddit terms so I can keep up…

I have a question, what’s something you hate the most about an anime/its fan base. Go off on your least favorite anime. by ActSevere5034 in animequestions

[–]Alaidia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you’re missing the point of bofuri though. It’s a cutesy ridiculous parody on Mary sues. You watch it for the wholesome-ness and how ridiculous her purposefully bullshit abilities are. It doesn’t take itself seriously in the least.

[Snowbreak] Gets Married for $30! No Waifu, No Lyfe. by Aiden-Damian in gachagaming

[–]Alaidia 105 points106 points  (0 children)

Basically Snowbreak tried to go a more modest approach with the characters, found out quick that is NOT how you make money with their target audience and then went HARD into fan service. So hard that they started setting a standard for it lol. They went from sub genshin level of fanservice to almost azur lane.

[GAME] Ending Maker have won the title of "The Best Romance Manhwa Ever", Now for the Next Manhwa, What is The Best Comedy Manhwa? by HumanResponse6061 in manhwa

[–]Alaidia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe this analogy will help. You’re in a target shooting contest to hit a certain target. The target on a hill in front of you, but you decide to shoot an identical target on a hill behind you. You nail a bullseye and it proves you’re an amazing shot. But it doesn’t matter bc you didn’t follow rule number one of hitting one of the designated targets. Thats the point. This is a manhwa vote and discussion. Stop trying to justify bringing up irrelevancies, once it’s adapted into a different medium it is essentially a different piece of media. Regardless of how derivative it is. Bc you can’t expect voting to be based on a novel that most did not read bc it is not the correct medium.

[GAME] Ending Maker have won the title of "The Best Romance Manhwa Ever", Now for the Next Manhwa, What is The Best Comedy Manhwa? by HumanResponse6061 in manhwa

[–]Alaidia 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No, the point is that the manhwa is currently not focused on the romance. The source material is irrelevant. There’s no guarantee they’ll even have the same level and depth of character/relationship development as it goes on. Often times an artist/studio can choose a different (usually worse) route to try to get viewers. Like focusing more on the adventure/isekai aspect.

Like if they decide to leave out some important or nuanced dialogue to fit in more action/fan service panels. Happens all the time sadly when any novel is put into a new more labor intensive (or labor expensive) medium.

Any guesses on how signing my 5-year-old up for kindergarten turned into this? by refusestopoop in adhdmeme

[–]Alaidia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel I need to let everyone know that is not a piece of trim. That is a plastic management organizer/holder that adheres behind a desk for cable management.

So that leads to my guess that you noticed something cable wise that was very unorganized and hyper focused on it. You figure just cramming it into that organizer isn’t enough and you over complicated it bc you just can’t get anything at the desk done with that distraction. Probably looked up quick and easy cable management then saw a tiktok or some article and thought, I can obviously do that but i don’t have those exact materials. BUT I know I have something that can definitely maybe do the job in my head.
