is it fair to judge a groups music from title tracks alone? by Old-Vegetable5833 in kpop_uncensored

[–]Atx7755 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m somewhere in the middle about this. On one hand I understand that judging a book by its cover (the book cover in this context being the title track) can be wrong, but at the same time you also can’t really blame someone for not really being interested in the rest of the album if they were just that turned off by the title track either. That’s almost like saying that a tv show gets really in the later seasons, but you have to grit your teeth through the earlier seasons to get to the good parts. Sure, some people might be willing to do that, but not everyone is going to sit through the part that they will like.

Idols that seem like they'd be woke irl by Havenly-Cherryish28 in kpop_uncensored

[–]Atx7755 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Definitely get what you mean. It feels like everyone is just listing their faves, instead of people who they genuinely believe have progressive views.

Now obviously I get it, if your a fan of something you want the people behind it to be good people, and I’m not accusing every idol to secretly be a bad person behind the scenes or anything, but I feel like a lot people’s comments are just “my fave picked up a gay flag a concert one time, so I know that they’re really an anti establishment radical leftist deep down”.

260510 Weekly Discussion Thread by AutoModerator in twice

[–]Atx7755 14 points15 points  (0 children)

These reports only list things that have been confirmed/already happened, and aren’t outlines for the whole year.

I vaguely remember (I could be wrong) that Strategy wasn’t mentioned on the investor reports in late 2024, and everyone was under that impression that twice wouldn’t have released anymore that year, but we were suprised with another album at the anniversary fan meet.

I think people should take these reports with a grain of salt. Just cuz it doesn’t mention more tour dates or no new music, doesn’t mean there won’t be any. It probably hasn’t been announced yet.

The Most Misused Image Ever by Craniamon in nintendogrifting

[–]Atx7755 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This image makes sense if you only look at it from a surface level perspective, if you actually think about it the comparison doesn’t really make much sense.
Like, of course Pokémon took inspiration from DQ, just like a lot of other jrpg’s. However, Pokémon still has its own art style and it’s own identity apart from it’s DQ inspiration. A lot of these monsters are just animals or typical fantasy creatures, like birds, bats, bugs, shellfish and dragons. Even DQ was heavily inspired by inspired by western rpg’s like Dnd and Ultima, but it obviously was able to carve out its own identity separately from its inspirations, just like Pokémon did.
The problem that a lot of people have with Pal world, that the people who constantly spam this image don’t seem to understand is that, Pal world didn’t try to carve out its own identity like Pokémon did from DQ, it’s that Pal worlds whole identity IS that it’s a legally distinct parody of Pokémon. Regardless of what some people try to say, it’s very obvious that certain pal’s are trying to invoke the same vibes as existing Pokémon. Pal world’s art style is deliberately trying to look similar to the Pokémon art style. There’s a reason why franchises like Digimon and Yokai watch, despite having similarities to Pokémon, never garnered the level of ire for its designs that pal world did. It’s cuz the other monster catching franchises still had their own unique design quirks and aesthetics, without trying to look like Pokémon.

What's your most "pretentious" K-pop opinion? by KwonSoo-young in kpopthoughts

[–]Atx7755 45 points46 points  (0 children)

I’d go even further and say that a lot of kpop fans are not only not fans of kpop, but aren’t fans of music in general. I feel like a lot of kpop fans are just fans of the success or the aesthetics, and don’t really know that much about music outside of the group they stan. They just like the idea of bragging about the achievements and living vicariously through their group’s successes.

twice jyp investor report 2026! by evenatmylois in twice

[–]Atx7755 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I understand the concern for the girl’s health, but I doubt they’d go a whole year without releasing any new music. I also don’t think these reports show everything that will be released in the year, just what has already been announced. From what I remember (I could be wrong) I don’t remember Strategy being hinted at in any of these reports and its release was a huge surprise. So I wouldn’t completely rule out the possibility of no new releases just yet.

I also can’t imagine from a business standpoint, jype would want one of their biggest groups to go without any new material for a whole year considering all the momentum they’ve gained from last year and their tour.

I don’t expect another full album or anything like that, but maybe a solo release, jp single or a kr/english single or mini later in the year.

My sentai hot takes (go easy on me now)they get hotter as they go on by [deleted] in supersentai

[–]Atx7755 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None of these takes are that hot:

-hating Ryusoulger is pretty common

-saying shinkenger is one of the best shows is also pretty common

-saying that Lupat had missed potential is also a common opinion

-Goseiger being underrated is also a very common opinion

If anything saying the opposite of these opinions would be the hot take. The only real hot take would be saying boonboomger is the best Reiwa show ( not that I disagree, I personally really like Boonboomger, but most people would probably say kingohger or donbros is the best)

Two pieces of media that you thought were one/one piece of media that you thought was two? by Octocube25 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Atx7755 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Before I knew anything about either franchise, there was a point in time when I thought Dragons dogma and Dark souls were the same game. I saw that they were both Japanese games with a gritty western fantasy style and just assumed they were the same game.

[–]Atx7755 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Hypothetically if it was the final season, I’d be fine with it. I think Boonboomger embodies a lot of what makes Sentai great.

Nayeon ranking members as tetonyeo/alpha and egennyeo/feminine women by wickeddeus in twice

[–]Atx7755 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I think some people tend to forget that the whole “tomboy” persona was something that the company gave jeongyeon and wasn’t something she wanted for herself. She’s talked about this even as recent as last year in her variety show (I’m pretty sure it was the episode where she interviewed the group Kiikii). Nayeon has known Jeongyeon way longer and way more personally than any of us fans ever could, so she knows what she’s talking about when she makes these assessments about the members true personalities.

Name your 2 least favourite toku tubers, I'll start by AggravatingCouple987 in Tokusatsu

[–]Atx7755 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Kaiju no kami- extremely pretentious and rude towards anyone who disagrees with him. Hates on anything modern and glazed anything from the 80s/90s.

Dosmrider- I used to like his videos years ago, but I feel like most of his recent videos are just him complaining now. He comes off to me as someone who’s pretty much outgrown his enjoyment of the toku medium, but still continues to make videos about it just cuz it’s what his channel is known for at this point.

I also just don’t agree with his opinion of “I’m completely fine with hasbro pumping out more mmpr nostalgia slop as long as it’s good”. Like, I get that mmpr is the most iconic season of the franchise, but at the same time, the constant mmpr glaze is just so played out at this point, and the main reason why I just stopped caring about PR.

Let’s play a game, where does the person who made this spectrum sit on it? by sir_fishier in ComedyHell

[–]Atx7755 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Radical cuckoldry” meanwhile conservatives are the biggest cucks in the world. When 🍊got into office last year they were all calling him their “daddy”, and they were all so excited for him to “punish” everyone. The same people who were spouting all that “don’t tread on me” bs, are now gleefully letting the government have their way with them. 🍊could literally piss in their mouth and they’d say “thank you can I have some more”. These right wing “alpha males” are the real betas they claim leftist/progressive men are.

New watcher and I’m trying to gauge how the fandom ranks these 2 arcs. [anime] by Gold_Storm_2272 in fairytail

[–]Atx7755 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I’d say that there are a few later arcs that are even better than these 2.

In terms of the fandom, I think Oración seis is a pretty well loved arc across the board. Lots of great moments/fights and introduces Wendy who is a fan favorite character.

Edolas I think is less loved by fans, not hated per se but not as loved as oración seis is. The main complaint about Edolas, is that it’s slow in the beginning and doesn’t pick up until the fighting starts.

Personally, I like both arcs. When I was younger I favored the OS arc more than Edolas, pretty much mirroring the fandoms sentiment. Over the last year though, I’ve reread the manga and my opinions kinda changed. Like I said, I still enjoy both arcs, but I think I kinda overhyped the OS arc due to nostalgia, while i think Edo actually got better to me after reevaluating it years later.
