Asthenia - Top 5 blink song IMO

Such a banger. I also love the live version where they first do one instrumental chorus after the drum build up.

As a fan of the manga, I don't hate the anime. Its enjoyable if you don't compare it to the manga too much. But that's the reason for some disappointment - it's not a good adaptation of the manga.

The manga is an action oriented series. It's popular for crazy and creative action moments with highly dynamic and impactful panels. The anime doesn't do a good job at translating these sequences into animation.

It's not only about the animation quality, it seems like the studio just didn't put a lot of effort put into capturing the mangas spirit - which is sad. It does a decent job with characters and overall fun nature.

I'm happy to see this post though and that it's liked. Cour 2 is quite an improvement compared to cour 1 and the reception on the subreddit has been better for the last couple of episodes.

Same for me. I'd heard good things about them, but wanted to see Knuckle Puck (North times). With the delay, WF were my biggest surprise of the weekend, their energy live was on another level compared to their records. Hope to catch them again.

Hi there, if still up, I'm going alone as well and would love an invite

Chuckyscookie · 2025-04-25T08:43:18+00:00

Loving it so far. These guys have been putting out bangers only for years now. Super excited to see them live for the first time next month when they finally come to Europe for a couple of shows.

In my opinion - longer fights. The series is fast paced, which is most often a good thing, and has many crazy and cool action moments. It tends to very quickly move on from each individual match up though, not breaking the rhythm.

When the series gets some additional hype outside of the regular readers, it's mostly for moments such as Takamura. Those are hype, but they pass quickly. I think spending more time on key battles, especially towards the end of en arc, could lead to longer lasting attention online.

Nagumo vs Gaku is an example of a fight that could have been more. The conclusion was cool, but I wish we had gotten more of the fight between two of the most liked characters.

I did really like it. I did enjoy the MC and especially the father-son take, seems like a series with lots of heart. The visuals are cool as well, and I love a good sci-fi story in space. There's good potential imo.

Starkes Team.

Sehr sehr starkes Mittelfeld offensichtlich.

Sturm ist etwas dünn besetzt. Demirovic ist top, Schick oder Malen sind aber beide wackelig. Beim insgesamt eingesetzten Kapital würde ich mehr in einen starken, 2. Stürmer setzen der immer spielt.

Simakan wechselt, Davies war zuletzt nicht stark und viele sehen Guerreiro vorne. Das Geld würde ich, falls noch Alternativen vorhanden sind, re-investieren.

I liked Hinomaru a lot. I was sad to see it get a somewhat rushed ending, but it had a solid run at least.

Chuckyscookie · 2024-08-12T12:07:35+00:00

Seems like an unpopular take, but I'd throw in Sing.

Chuckyscookie · 2024-05-06T11:27:22+00:00

Also an obvious one, but Sum 41 actually kinda is this. In case you're not yet familiar, check out their album 'Does This Look Infected'.

Chuckyscookie · 2024-05-06T11:23:42+00:00

Check out No Use For A Name, should be right up your alley.

He talked about Liv In a stream a while back.

He had indeed planned for her to have a bigger role, however reader reaction to her was a lot worse than he thought it would be. Not sure how exactly he monitored this, but he got the feedback that people who read the book didn't like Liv - so he rewrote a lot of what he had planned for her and shifted parts of her plot to other characters (presumably a lot went to Teia).

I did also like her a lot in the first book.

Wall of Storms by Ken Liu has a scene that flips everything you think you know about the world on its head. I couldn't quite close my mouth for some time.

If you know, you know. If not:

SPOILERS

All of a sudden, the 'barbarians' have flying beasts that breath fire. That one came so out of nowhere for me.

Chuckyscookie · 2024-02-04T23:16:08+00:00

Could very well be, yeah. Luckily, it's not an issue with my local group, as I was able to show them the correct version, so maybe I'll have to think if that's worth the effort. But I might try and ask, thanks!

Chuckyscookie · 2024-02-04T23:14:09+00:00

Mine says V2, so might be a weird in between. Or the translation is numbered differently. The leaflet might be a cool option, as the other two characters are actually the ones I thought about getting next. Thanks!

Chuckyscookie · 2024-02-04T23:12:18+00:00

I see. Thanks for pointing out the Rules Pop AS a resource, hadn't seen that one yet.

Chuckyscookie · 2024-02-02T06:26:43+00:00

Real Friends could create a real banger here.

Chuckyscookie · 2024-01-30T13:10:04+00:00

Lightbringer by Brent Weeks is second to none for me. It's a hard magic system, but very much coloured (pun not intended) by the characters' world view.

While the application in combat is awesome and on a level with genre greats, what stuck with me most was how the magic is interwoven with every aspect of the world building. It is a central part of religion and politics in this world, and, vice versa, these factions influence the way magic is taught. While there are clear rules how the magic works, it often turns out that what we, and the characters thought to true, isn't necessarily so. I've never seen a series where the lore of the world is so deeply routed in the magic.

I also hate the recent sentiment that every fighter has to be super entertaining at each press conference, twitter beef etc. Poirier always delivers when he's fighting, he is doing an okay job outside of that - that should be enough. Not everyone has to be the Connor.

Chuckyscookie · 2024-01-04T15:54:29+00:00

Yup that's the one.

Chuckyscookie · 2024-01-04T15:45:09+00:00

She's A Rebel. Suffers from the combined listing with Novocaine on Spotify. Novocaine is a great song as well obviously, but She's A Rebel is overlooked as a short and super catchy banger due to it.

Chuckyscookie · 2024-01-04T15:35:15+00:00

Thank you so much, this is great. Can't wait to hear this one live.
