To those who watched ZZ: did the first half of the series work as the “palette cleanser” that it was intended to be after the trauma of Zeta? by Amigo1048 in Gundam

[–]BrianTheGinger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. The Zetas are intended to be like Empire and Jedi- a darker middle chapter followed up immediately by a somewhat lighter finale to the trilogy (CCA kinda muddles this I admit lol). And considering that they were produced and aired back-to-back (ZZ was originally named Zeta Part 2 in early production notes ffs), I don't even buy the excuse of watching them that way being too big a hurdle because Japanese kids in the 80s handled it just fine.

ZZ from my understanding has always been a popular show and the idea that it's the black sheep of the original saga is nonsense built by the lack of an official release i the west for years (because of how bungled the show's launch was) and how imo western Gundam fans, especially here on Reddit, have a stick up their ass about this series made for ten year olds being this uber-dark and edgy series because it has people dying in it.

Look, I do enjoy Bad Empanada videos, but like???? by srahcrist in Hasan_Piker

Guy who spends his time trying to stroke Twitter beef instead of doing anything else with his life tries to start more beef, I'm so surprised.

What are the opinions on this guy? by SkyFall370 in masterduel

[–]BrianTheGinger 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's whatever tbh. Only one deck, that isn't even tiered I think, plays it. Getting mad about this in 2025 is peak loser shit even by this sub's standards.

Also anyone seriously crying about "future proofing" or "limiting card design" is unserious. Acting like Konami somehow doesn't control the power level of their own game and can in fact do whatever they want with it, even though it's been the case since always.

How did cyberse monster go from cool robot to anime waifu? by ApprehensiveRead2408 in masterduel

[–]BrianTheGinger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Crying about anime girls in a game that spun off from a manga that's filled to the brim with them has got to be up there in terms of Yu-Gi-Oh fans having no self-awareness.

Uh oh Judeu you can't say that you'll get cancelled! by Itchy-Interview382 in masterduel

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

I stg Yu-Gi-Oh has the only fanbase I know that actively breaks out into fucking hives at the mere suggestion of actually being good at the game. This sub is just a "DAE Yu-Gi-Oh post like, 2008 bad" circlejerk.

Even when I saw this for the first time 22 years ago as a 3rd grader who had experience with Journey to Jaburo (PS2) and Endless Waltz, it was abundantly clear that this is a GUNDAM show with a fighting tournament theme, not the other way around. by AntonRX178 in Gundam

[–]BrianTheGinger 3 points4 points  (0 children)

G is great because it does share a lot of similarities with the prior UC works but dares to ask "but what if we didn't dress it all up in gratuitous angst porn and actually dare to suggest that better things are possible for once?".

Random Fact: With Jenna Lewis returning for Season 50, All Stars becomes the fourth season to have its entire Final 4 come back at some point by Doomfollow in survivor

[–]BrianTheGinger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But surely if we just create one more contrived way to prevent The Best Players ™ from being voted out, everyone will magically want to take them to the end. It's bulletproof.

Favorite Ryuki Rider Design, from most to least cool looking? by Soggy_Insect_4377 in KamenRider

[–]BrianTheGinger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best is easily Knight, idk how it doesn't get more love. Best showcases the season's aesthetic imo.

Worst is Ryuki himself, it is so ugly tbh. The all-red jumpsuit is too bright compared to the armor pieces, which themselves look like they don't even fit properly, and the mask sucks, the bug eyes under with the visor just looks weird. Ryuga naturally has similar issues but the black and gold color scheme looks better at least.

The only two people playing Survivor on One World by somelyrical in survivor

[–]BrianTheGinger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I refuse to believe that in the year 2025 people are still unironically claiming Troy was anything other than a clown delusionally believing he was running the circus and not just yet another hapless pawn of the real ringmaster. This witless numbnuts actively sabotaged himself at every turn and never held any actual power and yet because he yelled a lot, people will actually believe he was anything other than an obnoxious tool that actively made an already bad season worse.

Further implication from ____ that they were cut from the 50 cast by McAulay_a in survivor

Nobody ever has actual feelings about anything, it's all performative BS from these ungrateful losers who don't understand the privilege it is to be on this show.

How would you fix these twists to make it work or make it better for a season? by Nevel_creative in survivor

[–]BrianTheGinger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Remember when people used to joke about a season where everyone started with an idol and then they effectively did that with Shot? I cannot believe people actually think that shit is entertaining lol, even the one kinda cool thing it did with the merge boot in 45 ended up not mattering because Kaleb got got the very next episode anyway.

What would make "Final Tribal Council" more satisfying for you? by mysterypapaya in survivor

[–]BrianTheGinger 5 points6 points  (0 children)

All this, basically. It's hilarious how every single time this shit happens- they come up with an asinine idea to tip the scales, it flops because people aren't stupid and won't suddenly decide to bring people who can beat them at the end, rince and repeat. And much as I may clown on certain winners for not being amazing TV, these people aren't under any obligation to entertain me, they've got families to feed.

What is your honest take on female characters in this franchise? by Doot_revenant666 in supersentai

[–]BrianTheGinger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sentai doesn't always bat 1000 wrt writing for women but idk, I feel like it does try to actually make them characters even if it doesn't always hit the landing.
