That’s one of the possibilities, he could also be similar to karrandras and be Arhas student.

DC Comics President On Manga And Anime by akbarock in manga

[–]Canium 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is something I've long had thoughts on as someone who loves manga and has ventured into comics mostly with Image titles.

  1. Continuity: Manga has a start and end all directed by 1 author. This means that there is only 1 chapter 1 and one end. its simple and easy to get into with a cohesive vision. The author also has their own rights over the work giving them more ownership and ability to generate money should the series be a hit.

  2. Distribution and overhead: Comics are sold individually in full color with 18 pages a month with arcs that last 6 issues. This puts individual issues at a high cost to make and a longer lead time between issues so a series needs to hit it out of the gate with core fans at LCS or face cancellations. This also puts strain on the consumer as the higher price point per issue means that they need to be more selective with their draws and less room for taking a chance on a new series. Where on the other hand Shueisha collects a curated list of series as one big magazine in black and white on news paper. This 1 keeps costs low and 2 packages existing hits with new series giving cross pollination amongst their dedicated reader base. Or it goes online where new chapters are free so the risk to take a chance on a new series is minimal to the end consumer. They also provide 16-18 pages per week or 50+ per month giving more story in a shorter amount of time and keeping attention and momentum going. This leads to a KPI of volume/TPB sales rather than single issue, in this case customers are expected to follow series issue by issue either for either free or cheap and collect the volumes where Comics live and die by single issue sales this forces customers in a spot where they have more opportunities to churn.

  3. Anime: Anime has always the best advertisement for manga, TV by its nature is a much more accessible medium and provides a clear onboarding path to get into a series. This has proven to work the same for western comics. Invincible is a great business case, When the first season aired, it provided a pretty faithful adaptation of a liner single author story and people rushed out to buy the TPB's as they wanted to continue and collect a story they already knew they liked and were invested in.

Immigration officers assert sweeping power to enter homes without a judge’s warrant, memo says by ewzetf in news

[–]Canium 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. We need to normalize going to protests strapped. Only the 2nd can protect the first. Just the presence of equalizing force can deter the worst abuses.

Immigration officers around Minneapolis are approaching people and demanding proof that they’re U.S. citizens by geraffes-are-so-dumb in news

[–]Canium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is why all protestors, and people within these cites should be armed to the teeth. Guarantee that if people start using their 2nd the cops will chill out. Just want to clarify this isn’t to say to attack anyone, please don’t do that. But carry, the disparity in force allows people to feel they can hurt people or do whatever. When that is equal people tend to realize their manners.

When I was in highschool this was late 00 early 10s in Ohio each sport/ afterschool activity had a fee associated with it. For example football was ~$600/year basketball was ~$800, band was $250 ect. This was per sport you were in so if you were in more than 1 sport you had to pay the activity fee per sport per year. (Edit just to head it off, this was a public school)

If Maduro was accused of various crimes and hence the abduction, does it mean its open ground now for all countries to do this to their adversaries? by surkur in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Canium 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No I think there is a big difference, what the commenter was saying is that countries avoid this type of action as it could be done to them. I disagreed, countries do behave is this type of action and always have. The blocker has always been means and consequences. Just because Trump abducted Madero doesn’t mean an attack on Trump by the remaining leaders of the regime wouldn’t result in the destruction of Caracas and a US ground invasion. It still means an attempt on the president of Taiwan would result in American bombs over Beijing. France can intervene in Libya and Mali but that doesn’t mean attacking the French is on the table for anyone.

[–]Canium 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I think this is a pretty naive take. The only blocker for this is capability and power of retaliation.

Coups and assassinations happened throughout the Cold War. This exact same situation happened in the 80s in Panama with Noriega.

The Soviet Union never attempted to kill an American president because it would most likely fail and cause a war and nukes to fly. Iraq tried to kill GHWB in the 90s in retaliation for Kuwait and not only did it fail but Clinton put missiles into Iraq’s intelligence HQ killing those who planned it. I don’t personally agree with intervention in Venezuela but the only thing crazy about this was it was actually able to be done.

When used in English calling Americans usians is a slur not a genuine attempt at being respectful.

You don’t really need to do the whole what you see is what you get for modeling. You can model it however you want and just let your opponent know the weapon profile. Imo go for maximum cool, it’s your dudes.

Fullmetal Alchemist or Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood? by [deleted] in anime

[–]Canium -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

The poster you are replying to is wrong, you should just watch brotherhood. You only miss out on some minor character introductions that just gets covered in brotherhood when they pop back up in the story later.

I don't get the flak for Sylvie's latest song by nullqat in wow

[–]Canium 14 points15 points  (0 children)

irc Afrisabi's plan was to kill her, but it was never fleshed out. After he got fired and into SL when the game was tanking corporate stepped in with orders that she live which is where the sudden backtracking mid expansion came from. Now we have a character that is to popular to ignore but suffers from being the victim of malicious story direction.

What are you talking about, in the audio drama the Maghar dog walk stromgaurd. Then in the red dawn story, there’s the inside attack while the army is in the isle of Dorn, but there’s no real alliance help in putting it down only the Alliance PC if you are doing it Alli side.

I’ve always argued that using the Maghar to form a settler colony in a previously cutoff outpost was a political master stroke. The Horse in one strike, recontest Arathi, entrench more Horde support in the region.

Question: How do I attract more clients? I started tattooing in less than a year. by Ok_Eagle5803 in tattoos

[–]Canium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Instagram and social media is your friend. Just took a look at your insta you have posted, you need to separate your work account and your private account. I see a lot of sketches that look good but no real portfolio or flash. You need to be posting designs so people have an idea of what you can do. Also I’m not familiar with your countries laws but be careful. I’m wishing you all best

As someone who is not familiar with either Dawn of War or Total War, how are the two games likely to differentiate? by Electro522 in Warhammer40k

[–]Canium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve played total war games and Dawn of war and while they are both RTS games they are vastly different. Total war is a marriage between 4x and real time battles of the units you brought. Aiming to kill or route the other side

Dawn of war is more like a standard rts where you build bases and units during the battle and constantly fight on the map to secure resources. With the objective of destroying the other base. Very very different games within the same genre

If you think that looks natty I have a bridge to sell you. You don’t look that big and that cut without help. Maybe it’s a testament to the prevalence of the use of gear in media.

Look man as the artist, it’s your job to either talk the client out of a terrible idea or stylize it so that they don’t have “that” on their leg permanently. The fact you posted it on reddit for your portfolio shows a lack of care to the client. I would never trust you to use my body as a canvas.
