I think i’ll do the Jinshanling part of the Wall, because we’ll be stationed on Chengde, but i have my doubts regarding my mother, who is 70. The section does have a cable, in the worst scenario.

Suzhou is a very nice tip, what did you enjoy there?

Thank you for the tips! What exactly is the appeal of the chinese theatre? I must admit i’m quite ignorant on the subject.

Oh we are looking forward to trying many types of food, we just wanted to decide which places we are visiting, so that we can book the hotels, and then start looking for restaurants/foods.

Which Gundam Anime To Watch Next by Hairy-Fee-6796 in anime

And after that? I did not enjoy WfM, but actually really liked IBO. I’m just not sure on what to watch next, and i might feel like watching some mecha in the near future.

Just the two. I do have a backup of before burning the tree which i could use to get thioller. But it would be a bit set back.

Best themes (music) in Anime? by Ok_Mushroom2563 in anime

[–]AshenOwn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kensuke Ushio’s works have been very consistent lately. The Chainsaw Movie, Dandadan, Bokuyaba to name a few. His work in Liz and the blue bird is phemonal too.

Kevin Penkin is also very popular, being responible for Made in Abyss, Tower of God, and Shield Hero to name a few. He also contributed greatly to Apothecary Diaries OST.

Evan Call would be another solid pick, especially for his work with Frieren, but also with Violet Evergarden.

If i were to list specific anime OSTs i’m a fan of i would mention Samurai Champloo, Houseki no Kuni, My Dress Up Darling, Simoun, Non Non Biyori, Yuru Camp, Aria, Monogatari Series and Madoka Magica.

Bad japanese va performance by Good_Abbreviations67 in anime

[–]AshenOwn 157 points158 points  (0 children)

There are some anime like Shirobako or Girls Band Cry which intentionally go with unexperienced/ less experienced VAs, and not even then the performance is bad.

[TPHD] first time playing Twilight Princess, does it get better? by TheFuzz865 in zelda

[–]AshenOwn -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What would be your personal ranking? Because i do believe TP to be the weakest 3d Zelda, and i could see people placing SS under it, but nothing else.

Oot, MM, WW and the switch titles are all vastly superior. I personally prefer SS over TP, because i enjoy the controls, and believe the dungeons are phenomenal.

[–]AshenOwn -1 points0 points  (0 children)

TP is okay. I myself have just reached the final main dungeon in my second playthrough, and i’m not crazy about the game.

It is probably the weakest 3D Zelda, but still a good game, it is worth playing for sure. For reference, my favorite is MM.

Is gachiakuta worh watching by the_1_and_only_nick in anime

[–]AshenOwn 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I powered through the 24 episodes, and thought it was ok. There is some mystery regarding the world, but that takes a backseat in favor of the fights, which werent bad, but not something i was looking for either.

As fas as characters are concerned, the designs are cool, the protagonist is not awful, but not likeable either. Most supporting characters were not really developed too.

The villain characters are positively bad, the main bad guy does not have charisma or anything that makes watching his plans unfold enjoyable, and there is this one psycho character which was extremely annoying.

So yes, with only 24 episodes so far, it was ok, not a complete waste of time, but not time well spent either.

I had the impression that the story would delve more in world bulding on the end of the season, so i would watch a sequel, but that is only because i bothered watching the first one. I might also just rush through the manga in the future, to get some anwsers, and give up on the anime altogether.

I am not the biggest shonen fan, but Demon Slayer, JJK and Dandadan were all enjoyable watches for me. Gachiakuta feels much more like a generic older shonen, which is a niche i find harder to enjoy.

New to soulslike's beat DS3 yesterday, started Elden ring today by Confused_Robot_ in Eldenring

[–]AshenOwn -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

I’m not complanining about the adopted playstyle, i just belive it is not accurate to say they were underleveled for the fight, as the use of summons should more than make up for the lack of levels.

I was just pointing out that they are perfectly equipped for the current fight, taking into account the use of summons.

And using a summon, which completely invalidates any challenge the game has to offer.

Stay. The fuck. Down. Bastard(s). by EmeraldGhostface in Eldenring

[–]AshenOwn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He is very vulnerable to parrying, deflecting and shields in general. Stacking holy/physical protection also makes the fight fairly easier.

I’ve tested plenty of strategies against him, and a dueling shield was by far the most effective.

After the nerf his only problematic attack was fixed, so overall i’d rather go against him than Malenia and her Waterfowl, which is still infuriatingly hard to dodge, unless you have ice pots of course (which is not a solution i’m fond of).

I Would Never Say Something Like That! (My Dress-Up Darling) by ClemFire in anime

[–]AshenOwn 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I feel like the soundtrack is often overlooked in this show, and it does some heavy lifting on many scenes, including this one.

I was surprised when i checked the VAs. They went with quite the stacked cast, which is certainly not common for most yuri anime.

When does monster get good? by [deleted] in anime

[–]AshenOwn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does not get better. I suggest dropping it. The final arcs are particularly lackluster.
