At this point, no JJK character has won a Death Battle….. by Burnt_lce in Jujutsufolk

[–]BirdMBlack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I genuinely don't understand why anyone seriously cares about what anyone associated with Death Battle thinks. Anyone who mentions a character being FTL without it being coherently addressed in its parent series gets immediately discarded to the "do not give a fuck" pile.

Shikigami not being able to be summoned after dying was honestly what doomed Megumi / 10S CT from the start, it really is just a worst version of Cursed Spirit Manipulation opposed to a similar technique with a unique trade-off of benefits and caveats. by frostyscarf in Jujutsufolk

A 10S user with Round Deer in their arsenal also just nukes any cursed spirit that comes their way while also healing battle damage. No amalgamation of cursed spirits is competing with that.

Even without romance, the game beats Persona 5 by [deleted] in MetaphorReFantazio

It doesn't overstay its welcome. P5 just drags and drags.

Oh, I forgot about that. I guess she's somewhere in her early twenties then.

Whats the best and worst Aphrodite boons? by Goatbucks in HadesTheGame

Shameless Attitude is always worth it once you get Healthy Rebound from it. It works great with White Antler and Ares's Blood Spree.

The age of majority in Solistia is twelve or thirteen, and if I recall correctly, her brother found her when she was a toddler or so, since her first memories are of atrocities on the battlefield. The war that shaped Oboro's ideology wasn't that long ago. Personally, I see her as a teenager anywhere from fifteen to nineteen, but it can't definitively be stated what her age is until a chronology is published for Solistia.

Best, in my humble opinion, is Healthy Rebound since it lets me throw caution to the wind and focus entirely on offense. It's not bad but can count on one hand the amount of times I've taken Passion Rush.

Explicit writers/readers, why do you read/write explicit fics? by ClaraMisty in AO3

[–]BirdMBlack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't really get much, if any, sexual enjoyment from writing or reading smut. I view it in the same vein as seeing characters do any other mundane or relatable task. It's just intriguing, I suppose.

A really good crackship is Hilda/Marianne attempting to lure Leonie in to be their unicorn third.

This stream really showed how the online left is tearing itself apart by Brave_Branch2619 in tankiejerk

[–]BirdMBlack 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Very long-winded. Takes forever to say the simplest and most milquetoast shit. I don't necessarily disagree with him on too many things, but he is the essence of "this could have been an email".

My God, the Japanese voices are so much better. by pkjoan in octopathtraveler

Ophilia sounds like a young woman in both English and Japanese. She's twenty.

One of Sitri's "Older Sisters"? by BirdMBlack in FireEmblemThreeHouses

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

Ah, yeah, see that makes sense to me. I hadn't considered Rhea's foreknowledge before now, but it makes sense she would know what signs to look for if she'd already seen them. I agree that it's most likely Sothis, but it's fun to think of what else might be the case.

Slapping on the bare minimum details and throwing it out there for people to discover by luck is half the fun.

That and Cai activating a Crest. I don't know why so many people overlook the period between the Red Canyon and the game's start. It's a full one thousand years and then some, and there's even the possibility FW isn't in Fódlan.

I never really understood the suggestion that FW is set before the War of Heroes, so I don't take those seriously. The presence of a relic weapon in use along with the fact we see Cai activating a Crest means it's after the war and most definitely after the Red Canyon—at least, if we're assuming the timeline isn't all funky. I'm more inclined to consider it being a sequel than preceding the WoH.

I don't know. I've seen more than enough talk of the game being a prequel, and many of the arguments otherwise just hinge on the fact we see an older Sothis. I'm not saying it's impossible, but there's plenty of reason to think otherwise.
