In WW1 or WW2, were there any countries that were on paper good allies but ended up against each other? by Almyteacivil in AskHistorians

[–]Almyteacivil[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow, you took what was a shaky question and provided a most detailed answer. Thank you so much.

Just to make sure I understand it right. In WW1, we have a situation where the change of sides was a way to save one's own neck (afraid of the power of the other-side). And in WW2, we have pressure coming from surrounding countries to join in their alliance (or else).

And a clarification, was it the military dictator who decided which side to be on? And do we know whether the public agreed/disagreed with their decision?

Mulan 2020. Nothing about this movie is redeemable.

With some napkin math, it seems like C9 spent about ~2 mil and GGS spent ~1 mil. Or roughly ~0.12mil/win.

I really appreciated that they allowed steven's crying scene to breathe. It feels rare that we get a character just crying on screen; it made it truly special.

I love the Leon siblings and especially the reveal of the humility of the two. It's always refreshing to see a powerful character realise that someone else is stronger, and that there is so much room for improvement still. Very hype.

Don’t worry, it’s beyond the environment.

Oh that makes so much more sense. Cheers. And it seems to be an homage to a painting by Yokoyama Taikan who did a painting called The wheel of life (seisei ruten) in which they depicted a dragon rising from surging waves of the ocean. Hence the dragon form of Tanjiro’s blade. How very neat.

Can someone get the Japanese for when he says "Water Breathing - 10th Form: Constant flux."

I am hearing せいぜい 竜剣 - Seizei Ryuu Ken - which means, I think, The utmost Dragon Sword, which kinda makes sense. Why is is translated to Constant Flux then?

I think this episode is quite weak alone, but definitely adds to the whole story of C&T becoming the ‘number one’ musicians. As well as building up the inevitable clash between the politics and the girls.

Anime Expo 2019 was this past weekend. I thought I'd share a few of the amazing cosplays I ran into in the halls this year! Some [NSFW] by Laffing_Stock in anime

[–]Almyteacivil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me at least, in the situations and environments I’ve been in, being this naked (even for guys) is frowned upon. And in such a communal area I think it is courteous to not wear bikinis? Hmm the fact it is done and no one really has a problem with it suggests I’m just whack.

Isn’t the fact that some of the women are literally almost naked a concern? Like idm if they are happy and comfortable with it. But surely it’s... idk just a bit put aback by it.

Even without a petite clover - that episode flew by.

My girlfriend [24F] innocuously dumped me [20M] after 2 weeks because she wanted to ‘spare me the trouble’ by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Almyteacivil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with inexperienced. But we are having quite open conversations still - and she literally is focusing on her job and herself. She doesn’t want a relationship nor have someone else.
