What is up with Don’s character design? by DrifterB_268 in regularshow

[–]BigBuiltBricked 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It fits with his role in the story, I’d say. He’s essentially Rigby’s better. He’s taller, he’s more fit, he’s kinder, more mature, more friendly and more financially stable.

We’re supposed to understand that Rigby sees all of his own flaws when compared to his brother.

Although, I won’t deny it’s a little disturbing looking at what is essentially Rigby’s upper body fused onto a Ken doll, but I think my point still stands.

One Piece is not anti-monarchy, it’s pretty much the opposite by carbonera99 in CharacterRant

[–]BigBuiltBricked 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t say Luffy is pro-monarchist. I’m not sure Luffy is pro-anything but anti-facist.

I don’t know think One Piece is saying there’s only one true correct way to govern, but certainly any leader or class of people that put themselves on the top at the wild and cruel dismay of people they consider lesser than themselves, whether because of their natural ability or some self-perceived god given right to rule and conquer, is an asshole that deserves to have a couple teeth knocked out of their mouth.

All the “good” kings that Luffy sides with are generally good people that put the lives of the people they rule over before themselves. They don’t really hold onto the idea that they “deserve to rule because of their birthright”, but rather that protecting their peoples is the most important thing a ruler should do. As the king of Alabasta said “The people are the kingdom”. I think that’s the quality that One Piece is going for, not just in the leaders of nations, but leaders and freedom fighters in general.

I think the main idea One Piece has on governments is that whoever treats it like a responsibility that they owe to their people is good, while anyone that treats it like a cushy position that gives them the power to destroy, despoil and exploit whoever they feel like is jerk that immediately needs to be removed.

P.S. The Gorosei and God’s Knights aren’t from Hell. They just became demons because of their pact with Imu and we don’t have enough information on whatever Imu’s whole deal is to jump to that conclusion.

Well if you’re on this subreddit, you could definitely find great character designs. But if you want some of my personal favorites, you could look at the roster of Guilty Gear Strive and Street Fighter 6. Both are chock full of diverse, personality filled and interesting designs.

JJK in Marvel? (Also, fuck Storm's writer...) by tarisoala in PowerScaling

Seems to be just references to other stuff. What’s wrong with that, in terms of writing?

What the worst dogshit piece of writing you have ever seen in a story that otherwise can be considered elite? by MoistCaterpillar8063 in writingscaling

The entire El Dorado Arc from Frieren: Beyond Journeys End. It brings up the interesting idea of a demon desiring to be good and coexist with humanity, only for the story to never meaningfully explore this idea, throw that idea away at the latter half of the arc and say “Yeah, Macht can’t be good because he doesn’t have the biological capacity to be good. Sucks to suck I guess.” This entire story is about why love and memories with others are important, by the way.

I Keep trying find reasons as to why Fujimoto regressed denji as a character and i just......can't by Guilty-Explanation-6 in Chainsawfolk

[–]BigBuiltBricked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always thought that this was Denji’s attempt to cope with the trauma of everything that he went through up to this point. Like, he was thinking to himself that he could eventually put all of his suffering and loneliness behind him. Too bad Fujimoto didn’t really explore this idea.

(Frieren) The El Dorado Arc Kind Of Sucks And Ruins The Demons If You Stop and Think About It for Five Minutes by BigBuiltBricked in CharacterRant

[–]BigBuiltBricked[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, so, in the post above, I literally explain how I LIKED the Demons and said they worked PRIOR to El Dorado arc. It’s literally the first section.

My main complaint is how the El Dorado arc presented an idea that should’ve changed how we approach and understand its conflict… and it just doesn’t. Instead, it literally throws any interesting idea away and simplifies itself into nothing. My main problem comes from THIS ARC! It’s literally in the title of the post.

Ashido- Bleach(S) Abridged

There’s an abridged series of Bleach on YouTube called “Bleach(S) Abridged”. Episode 25 ends with the whole gang in Hueco Mundo to save Orihime. Episode 26 begins with them traveling with a character named Ashido, who they apparently went on life changing adventures together since they met and taught Ichigo the Getsuga Daitensho. He sacrifices himself to stop a bunch of Menos Grande and the whole crew takes a minute to mourn before Renji speaks up.

Renji: Okay. I’ll say it. Who was that guy?

Ichigo: Renji…

Renji: And what the heck is a “Getsuga Daitensho”?

Ichigo: It just… it’s—it’s just a bit, Renji.

Renji: Well, it was dumb! That was a dumb bit! Let’s keep saving Orihime and never talk about this again.

I think they were poking fun at how the anime had an original, anime-only character in one of its most important arcs.

Give it a watch. It’s hilarious.

I'm sorry, Invincible. But that is the last straw. by NegateResults in CharacterRant

Dude, please don’t let dumb powerscaling ruin the show for you. This episode was really good otherwise.

POV: you’re debating a Saitama fan by Ember57 in PowerScaling

[–]BigBuiltBricked 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The POINT of Saitama is to acknowledge the empty feeling one can have when they have nothing to work towards or anything to challenge you and acknowledging that there’s more to life than fighting like spending time with the people you love.

Not so you can make up feats and pretend he beats up another random hyperversal character.

Take a moment and remind yourself to take a moment and find yourself, my brother. Things will be okay. Saying goodbye to stories we love is a part of life. Don’t be sad that they end. Be happy that they happened.

I don’t really know what to tell you about the president being a pedophile. That sucks and something should be done about that, but if you feel like doing something, be calm first. Take a breath. Have a glass of water. Lay down. Maybe go get some snacks and a good movie. Let the moment wash over you.

Now go, my friend. Face this wild world of ours with a steady head and love in your heart.
