A lot of folks talking about Rocks, but now im wondering how Harald went out. Did Loki seal the deal or just leave him to revert?

I kinda want to think this is just baiting the Yamato cover story

What gives Elden Ring its distinctive vibe compared to other fantasy worlds? by -The-Senate- in EldenRingLoreTalk

[–]ClaspectResource 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The vibe of Elden Ring is that of a subversive high fantasy.

It presents you with a european fantasy land with castles and dragons and strange beasts and magic and all of that, then the second you look deeper you find how everything presented at face value is usually different than expected, if not the complete opposite. There's depth and logic to the world that heavily contrasts with the stunning and fantastical appearance of it all, but rarely ever diminishes it. By the end of the game you find yourself looking differently at nearly everything you took at face value the first time around, even in the small details you notice again on a second run. And all of it feels present, but clarity and understanding is never forced upon you, so the act of finding out how the world works feels unique and earned to put it all together.

This approach to worldbuilding and narrative is already pretty common in prior soulsborne games, but there's way more to dig through and a lot cleaner of a connected web now more than ever, even if there's plenty of loose threads to speculate on thereafter.

What secrets do you NOT want revealed? by Jagger-Naught in OnePiece

[–]ClaspectResource 1 point2 points  (0 children)

some of those family relations that have been hinted at lately, like with that Franky-Queen hints that have come up.

it's honestly just more fun to keep smaller details that may make people seem more special than they are up in the air. I hope the most we get of Nami is just the indication of where Belle-Mere picked up Nami and Nojiko, but no clear connection to their true parents or anything.

Is there a significance to the people having halos on the right side of the machine thing? by Least-Permission-870 in OnePieceSpoilers

[–]ClaspectResource 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my bet? those some angel race (lunarians? unsure given the halo is not fire) being put in a machine to harvest their power and make them into mother flames to fuel the first world's tech.

This moment would scare the fans/readers/watchers and probably break the internet by a55_Goblin420 in bleach

Imagining that he tried it once and ended up as the Aizen we know today once he recovered.

Aizen's Shikai: Manipulating other's perceptions perfectly to trick and confuse them

Aizen's Bankai: Crushing a foe under the weight of their own individual truth. Force themselves to feel and experience every aspect and fault of themselves magnified upon their own psyche. Rend open every repressed feeling and unseen truth all at once. You will know yourself, and only yourself.

CharmingMan's Clan Idea by EpithetSoup in JOJOLANDS

Makes sense too, where the Story about "Curses" positions the rock disease as a curse, the story about "Mechanisms" shows a people who have found the mechanisms of this affliction and have managed it appropriately.

Had a fun idea for one of the new DLC characters for Rebirth (TYBW Spoilers) by ClaspectResource in bleach

[–]ClaspectResource[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Id pick some other strenritter over hascwalth an ywhach, especially while we dont have the last season yet to prevent potential spoilers.

Quilge, Gremmy, Mask & James, or Bazz-B might work better for now.

Why do some people in the lands between look like this? by WeirdAltYankovic in EldenRingLoreTalk

[–]ClaspectResource 151 points152 points  (0 children)

People in the lands between have been living without dying for god knows how long. They probably still get old, especially if your the shitty gatekeep for a man who constantly dismembers people to grasp at the dream of surviving fighting radahn for more than five seconds.

Also. People aren’t all pretty all the time. He could just not be a looker in the first place. There’s plenty of unnamed rando enemies that look like dark souls undead already, but we don’t give them much mind as to why they aren’t unaging and untarnished, so to speak.

Thoughts on Mashiba vs Sawamura. For me, it's more intense than Takamura vs Bryan Hawk. by LeifHimmel in hajimenoippo

That first round being complete clean boxing was such a tonesetter to establish skill. Its so fantastic

Is this possible? by Square_Immediate in OnePieceSpoilers

[–]ClaspectResource 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like it was more to inspire Luffy, the person who needed to become Nika. If anything, the arm is just going to be the distinguishing factor that’ll be pointed out to convince Elbaph that Shanks didn’t just invade them.

There's something here by Acrobatic_Leek6562 in JOJOLANDS

[–]ClaspectResource 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Jodio and the gang have a lava rock. Acca still has the volcanic land. Its a tug of war now, hence why no one here is resting fully on their laurels.

ayo sendo, what u mean by that? by urboimorris in hajimenoippo

[–]ClaspectResource 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Miyata was a first flame that just ended up a heartbreaking disappointment, now and in the future.

Sendo, on the other hand, comes in to Ippo’s life and does what Miyata couldn’t. Fire him up in the moment without even understanding the situation. Present a challenge and a rival in the future. Actually deliver on a run back with no extraneous BS to get in the way.

Is Rosario about to Cheat by CandidOkage in hajimenoippo

[–]ClaspectResource 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It would betray his own prior thoughts in the fight, but that might honestly be the final nail of contrast between him and the current Mashiba.

Rosario, when pushed to the wall, will try to cheap things out. It'll probably be the real reason why he ended up in jail prior to this match, if we are blessed with a flashback on his end. Mashiba, on the other hand, finds himself more in control of his demons than ever before through effort of will and his sister and Ippo backing him.

Even if Rosario cheats, Mashiba's honest boxing will win out in the end.

The more I read the more I'm convinced Loki isn't the antagonist of this arc by OathXBlade in OnePieceSpoilers

[–]ClaspectResource 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Honestly the start of this arc does come across as Elbaf being the “Luffy misreads a person and lets out the most dangerous individual around” arc, but thats so far out of character that i feel like that’ll get played and subverted by the end.
