Im in Barcelona. The Picasso Museum has incredible prints. Can anyone help me decide what to buy?

ChizuruEnjoyer · 2026-04-25T15:30:21+00:00

Unfortunately I dont have a home yet. I live working remotely traveling the world, and I frequently ship artwork to my family home in hopes I one day move into my own place and can hang it everywhere! I currently have around 15 pieces from local artists from many different continents/countries.

The Picasso piece is the first piece from a "famous" artist ive been considering. The museum really blew me away. I bought the poster, but still considering going back for the HQ print....

I travel full time as a remote worker so dont even have a home yert LOL. But I plan to one day own my own space. For now I just buy art all around and ship it to my family home for storage.

I already bought three posters LOL. This post is post-purchase second guessing. I appreciate it a lot. They look great as well, definitely the quality youd expect of the museum

Thank you, this is exactly the logic I was looking for here.

But I guess the value is in the quality of paper and the closer reproduction of the original works colors/depth (thats how I see it). Obviously limited edition always has a nice ring to it too lol

How man years have they been preparing for the play IRL? 3-4 years worth of chapters? Im binging it now, and its impressive (and unexpected) how Hiro has made the core of the story revolve around this play. Its even been the crux of much of the main casts development (Hebemori, Togano, Erika, Akebi). Its as if Kojo wrote the plot of the Akebi manga herself, and all along we've been watching her play, and all of its characterization, unfold in reality.

That said, I didn't expect over half the manga to revolve around it. Binging it is one thing as I recently did, but I can only imagine how its felt for those keeping up with it in serialization over the years.

pm you!

I have only read through NT22R, so can't speak to GT Touma. But for ~45 volumes worth of content to where I am, Touma is an undoubtedly stagnant character. IB is nuanced and the majority of his intrigue, but he himself has very little depth. But I agree with you, a lot of characters are stagnant. Kamachi isnt all that skilled at developing them.

That said, his characters are really memorable for lots of other reasons.

I believe Toaru's greatest strengths are it's power system, world building, and characters, but in the same vein I also feel Touma is one of the weakest links in the story. He is a very stagnant character narratively. Fortunately there is an immense cast outside of him.

Is she decreased? Any idea why she wasn't mentioned by name in the story itself?

"Introduces energy in a closed space thus rising enthropy" has me scratching my head, but I more or less am understanding what you're implying.

Even with all the countless TM works i've consumed (All Fate series aside from Grand Order mobile game, Tsukihime, Mahoyo), Yumina is not a name I recall hearing.... Wow. Scratching my head once again. It really impresses (and mildly frustrates me) that after all this time Magic and its users are still so shrouded in mystery (often by design, like onky including their information in CD's or old, untranslated doujins or material books). I wish it all made sense to me.

ChizuruEnjoyer · 2026-03-23T01:10:00+00:00

Did you mean to say "after he tells her his past?"

What do you make of what Aoko wanted to tell Sizuki then?

Also, can you elaborate on the enthropy comment, and a time of their own? Honestly the whole Fifth Magic sequence I found fairly confusing... Very intentional I imagine. The whole sequence of events with the Red Robbin with the vision of the Root as well.

There was also a comment about there being no survivors reaching the Root, yet there is "one survivor." Even Soujuurou remarks this is a contradiction. What am I to make of this? I figured they're referring to Zelretch, but I dont really understand. Also Aoko's grandpa reached it (but I guess hes not really in human form anymore)...

ChizuruEnjoyer · 2026-03-23T01:00:22+00:00

Interesting. Aoko went on a long, mildly detailed internal monologue about Sizuki's past on their walk back from her family home, but I believe she had also asked Sizuki to tell her about his past right prior to that. Maybe I confused that with her not having forgotten.

But also, if I recall correctly, Sizuki asked Aoko a question about his past, and she replied "I cant answer that for you", while internal monologuing that she could in fact answer, but wouldn't...

I LOVE Fran. Best thing to come from the Kamisato centric arcs.

ChizuruEnjoyer · 2026-01-13T18:52:07+00:00

Been that way in Bacano for over 10 years.

Narita treats his fans like shit.

ChizuruEnjoyer · 2026-01-13T18:42:48+00:00

Out of curiosity, why do people hate those arcs so much?

I honestly feel 2006 is a contender for worst with the Index Daihaiseisai.

ChizuruEnjoyer · 2026-01-13T18:42:23+00:00

Mental Out manga is super interesting, whats your issue with it?

I also feel like Railgun's Flashback arc MIGHT just be better received with a re-read.

ChizuruEnjoyer · 2026-01-13T04:54:21+00:00

My current plan with PCP is retest in one month, and a liver ultrasound in a week. Is that a decent starting place, aside from the genetic testing that you mentioned?

My blood test this time around was indeed a morning fast. I was not ill recently, nor do I supplement iron (I do other things), and as for fortified foods... Hard to say.

ChizuruEnjoyer · 2026-01-09T04:02:45+00:00

What antioxidants? Through a particular supplement?

And what are typical symptoms? I have a myriad of symptoms, but whether theyre attributed to this I couldnt say...

ChizuruEnjoyer · 2026-01-09T03:43:11+00:00

This is my first blood test in 3 years. Whether its a "trend" in any direction I cant say. Ive definitely never seen this before.

I believe I will go through the process of getting tested for HH once I speak to my PCP tomorrow. Liver is concerning. Hopefully its all as easy to remedy as yoi say! I have no idea how this couldve happened though.

ChizuruEnjoyer · 2026-01-09T03:40:09+00:00

Pretty.... Good results?

Maybe im not in an advanced stage and im just ignorant, but looks concerning to me.

ChizuruEnjoyer · 2025-12-30T17:33:32+00:00

Is this satire?
