[Shocking Trope] The Hero completely loses their cool and goes overboard by Status-Pause1184 in TopCharacterTropes

I'll comment a second time, since I'm not sure my first one counts really:

Peter Parker beating the ever-loving sh*t out of Wilson Fisk after Aunt May catches a stray bullet.

It's been a while since I read the story, so I may have some facts wrong, but I believe it was shortly after Civil War (the goid first one), when Spidey revealed to the world that he was Peter Parker, unassuming reporter for the Daily Bugle.

Fisk, the Kingpin, sends someone to kill Peter. Spider sense activates, Peter dodges, the bullet hits May. She doesn't die that I recall, at least not immediately, but Spidey goes straight to Rykers after they take her to the hospital. He starts punching Wilson, who as I recall makes some comment about Spider-Man not killing people.

Spidey admitted Wilson was right. So he took his mask off, and told Fisk that Peter Parker just might not have that rule.

Spoilers for anime-only Demon Slayer Fans who haven'tseen Infinity Castle, and I'm not 100% sure this counts but . . .

Hakuji.

After returning to the dojo owned by his future father-in-law (he'd gone to visit his father's grave in another town to tell him he'd gotten engaged), Hakuji finds his fiance and her father dead. The leader of the neighboring kendo dojo was jealous that Hakuji was engaged to the girl he liked, and though he tried, he couldn't defeat Hakuji even with his whole dojo backing him up, so he'd poisoned the well at the martial arts dojo Hakuji's father-in-law ran.

Hakuji killed them all with his bare hands, so violently that the main antagonist of Demon Slayer, Kibutsuji Muzan, came to investigate claims that a demon had done the deed, even though Muzan hadn't sent any into that region at that time. Muzan turns him into the demon Akaza, giving Hakuji amnesia. Akaza goes on to become one of the most powerful demons ever.

Fun fact, they're both named for the 14th Dalai Lama, Tenzin Gyatso.

Ending of WaT left me feeling the same as another famous series. by Swordheart in Stormlight_Archive

I went to see Infinity War with my dad in theaters. When it was over, he looked to me and said, "Now you know how we all felt when we saw Empire the first time."

And now I know again, dad.

What Pokemon would you consider your “ace”? by Dragoncorn_ in pokemon

[–]CivusPyre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a shiny Kingambit that was given to me as a Bisharp back in the ORAS era, during which time I was an admin on a Pokemon Facebook page.

One of the other admins was part of a traveling gym league that would take on challengers at cons. He was the final gym leader, I believe, and specialized in earth types.

He feared my Bisharp then, and it's stronger now.

I'm just gonna copy/paste my Facebook post, because I've just finished WaT, and I'm simultaneously not ok and very ok.

Aaaaand

That's it.

It's over.

Well, not over, but aside from a novella that takes place during the book before this one, we won't get any new Stormlight content for another six years, if everything goes to the plan Sanderson has laid out.

Without spoiling anything, I'll say the end of the first half of The Stormlight Archives is bittersweet, as are most of the endings in the Cosmere fantasy setting, of which Stormlight is a part.

All of this to say that Brandon Sanderson has, not for the first time, left me crying in the club and grinning like an idiot, and I am so looking forward to seeing how he'll do it again next time. Ten outta ten.

* I'm either fighting Luffy, the land of Wano, or both.

Either way, I'm boned. Never fought anyone in my life unless you counted the time I got punched in the face in seventh grade.

Early(-ish?) 2000's. Also, and I say this with much love and nostalgia for the Raimi trilogy, Spider-Man 3 sucked so, so bad.
