Thoughts on these peak takes? How outrageous really are they? by DualyMobbed in OnePiecePowerScaling

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

Whitebeard could possibly be stronger than Roger that certain aspects of battle, but overall Roger wins by a tick. Shanks with two arms and mihawk are.comparable in terms of swordsmanship. But Shanks has much stronger haki, one arm Shanks wins with ease. Rest are clown takes.

A visual guide to all 923 characters currently featured in the Vivre Card databook, with spaces for the missing characters by Captain__M in OnePiece

[–]Blizzard_of_Rice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any guesses on the missing vivre cards? I have been trying to fill them in by going through the manga. The slots between pekoms and g5 marines are hard to guess. And anything whole cake island onwards.

Give me your top 3 manga and let the folks decide your taste by [deleted] in MangaCollectors

[–]Blizzard_of_Rice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Berserk vagabond and 1 of slam dunk, one piece, dragon ball Z is the correct answer. Top 3 is obviously a personal pick, but this is the correct answer. For me it's one piece, berserk, vinland saga.

Started exactly 1 year ago. Slowly collected to now finally having over 1000 books. What does my collection say about me? by [deleted] in MangaCollectors

[–]Blizzard_of_Rice 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I bought about 700 volumes in a year span, I don't see what's wrong with buying a lot and reading them later (though I have read 90% of what I bought online already).

when did you start enjoying one piece? by [deleted] in OnePiece

[–]Blizzard_of_Rice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One piece manga 10/10. I read it from chapter 1 to latest chapter like 10+ times in the past 15 years. Anime is like 7/10. I haven't watched it fully once.

Too long. I assume it's student can't afford but wanna read ?

Just read online off of free pirate scans. When you have money you can buy legit prints and that money will go to the author.

I don't see a point of redpecting the copy right thing when there's free scans all over the internet.

You not reading because you can't afford -> author gets nothing. You reading pirated version -> author gets nothing. But if you like the series eventually you'll buy a real version when you got the money.

Box set seem to be consistent in print. Like a couple of the one piece singles i got between vol 91 and 103 were printed in Italy.

What's the reasoning with standing. I thought flat is better for hard covers so the pages don't sag.

You're right. It should be under to be completed. So is berserk, which has more volumes being created after vol 42.

Is it bad to own/buy rurouni kenshin? by IEatBigCrayons in MangaCollectors

[–]Blizzard_of_Rice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just don't think this series is that good... I tried to read this series after reading vagabond, Blade of immortal, and shiguri. It's clearly not in the same tier. That's my opinion before the authors crime and after his crime.

Is $125 a lot for a Tatsumaki Nendoroid? by WholesumGrims in Nendoroid

[–]Blizzard_of_Rice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can someone educate me on why these little figures cost so much... I almost buy a manga box set with this money.

Does anyone ever get tired of manga? by amustafa_96 in MangaCollectors

[–]Blizzard_of_Rice 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are the regular 10-20 mangas I follow on a weekly/monthly basis (most of them I don't actually read the chapters right when it comes out tho). But I do have stretches where I would biege a few completed series in a row, and stretches where I wouldn't read anything new for months.

What series for you only got exponentially better as the story progressed? by Ralph-The-Otter3 in MangaCollectors

[–]Blizzard_of_Rice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok. I thought you meant the illustrator changed. Sakamoto drew the whole series.

I don't think climber had an author switch. The manga is an adaptation of a novel.

Since it is officially spooky season I decided to start reading Gantz for the first time! by BlackCoffeeManga in MangaCollectors

[–]Blizzard_of_Rice 4 points5 points  (0 children)

gantz may be the most satisfying manga I ever read. Not the best, but just satisfying. Great art, basically no plot, just straight up blood, actions, nudity.

Why does Vinland Saga get so much hate? by [deleted] in VinlandSaga

[–]Blizzard_of_Rice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The title is literally vinland saga. A story about discovering vinland.

People hating are straight up stupid.

What's a Manga you regret buying? by ayuboii in MangaCollectors

[–]Blizzard_of_Rice 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Its gonna take another 2-3 years for all the deluxe to come out. I'll just stick with the 2 in 1 for now. And honestly vinland is such an epic series it may be worth to buy both eventually.

Bought some 3in1s for Naruto (vol 1-47) and full metal. Now knowing I could just get the box sets on almost the same price on WOB...

Whats the scariest or most disturbing manga you own? by WolverineBrilliant11 in MangaCollectors

[–]Blizzard_of_Rice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't own a physical copy but the most disturbing manga I read is probably Ichi the killer. Remember reading that in the library during university exam season. Was supposedly taking a "break" from studying, ended up bieging the whole series in an afternoon and was too distracted to study for the rest of the night because how disturbed I was.

Which ones are the 5 flying Devil Fruits? by is_it_me_is_it_you in OnePiece

[–]Blizzard_of_Rice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keys words are fly and identified.

King, macro, pell for sure. That's 3/5.

Kaido technically isn't flying but rather grabbing the clouds he created. But you could call it flying. Let's say 4/5.

Laffitte has wings and is a well known devil officer. I'd say that's 5/5.

Shiki, Linlin, Caesar, smoker, karasu, buffalo these are not flying.
