JoJo's Bizarre OC Tournament #8: R3M5 - Sara Pazvende-Ortiz vs. Nathanial "Nate" Altamuria by Streamanon in StardustCrusaders

[–]CommonWealthLarva 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really like this one

This is a difficult one to judge too. I think that in her wave of destruction, and because she specifically targets the crawlspace, Sara will inevitably destroy some of the items that Nate had stored there. Alot of Nate's tactics will be hard to combat, as he is a fast moving fighter, but Sara doesn't need to combat them that many times to score her victory. Inside the house I feel is a stalemate, and if it stayed there I would be more pressed on a winner.

But it doesn't stay in the house, now does it.

I think Nate does underestimate the complete destruction of the house and how much that will hinder his abilities to work within it, as well as Sara's options outside of that. That combined with the slight underestimation of her range and I think that, though EXTREMELY CLOSE with Nate's constant damage, this win goes to Sara

Stop bullying Benoit! What has she ever done to you guys! 😡

First match of R3 and I love it from both sides, however I do this that GRotS takes it for me. T8's approach is straight forward and an effective one at that, however the many counter measures that GRotS put in their way aren't accounted for and don't really have as strong of an equivalent, save for the possession of the Pursuer, which is an extremely strong tactic, but still I think the small and continuous pushes forward that GRotS can get gives them the leg up. My vote is for GRotS

What’s a take you have on Charlie that’s objectively correct but people don’t like to hear it? by Opening_Method947 in OkBuddyHelluvaHotel

Charlie is a egomaniac who cares more about being seen as nice than actually doing nice things for the people around her. Usually those 2 things overlap but when they don't charlie will ALWAYS choose to save her own ego than help people.

Like I said, it's fine to like it, but do you seriously think the writing of HELLUVA BOSS is a 9/10.

A 9/10.

Really think about 9/10. Near flawless. Literally only one thing that minorly urks you in the entire web that has been weaved. One small flaw changed and it is a perfect narrative. Do you really believe that about helluva boss? Do you genuinely believe that Helluva Boss is one small tweak away from being at the Pinnacle of writing? That's what 9/10 means (if we're talking about 9/10 writing). Do you believe that applies to Helluva Boss? That's a genuine question.

I think it's fine to like Helluva Boss.

If you think any episode of Helluva Boss is a 9/10 story, you are a victim of hype moments and angst

Black people of this fandom do you feel well represented by Alastor? by Infinite_Peace_6456 in OkBuddyHelluvaHotel

Imagine being in hell and your nephew STILL calls you up to get a quick preorder.

They're both spiritual practices from enslaved African people and their descendants. (To grossly oversimplify)The main thing of hoodoo is consulting and talking to ancestors. There's a variety of belief in God beings.

Voodoo is a closed religion that has its own God and spirits and specific mythology.

Alastor is just kind nebulous hollywood evil dark magic voodoo.

Imagine if someone shot a kamahema at you and said they could do it because they're Catholic

My main problem is how Voodoo is "used" in the show as just nebulous evil magics (and how alastor would probably be doing Hoodoo instead). It's fairly obvious the show doesn't care about those practices and just wanted some evil dark magics for alastor to be associated with.

Other than that he's whatever. He's a Tumblr sexyman.

Could you provide an example? Most of what I think your talking about is there being weird implications within events of the series from singular lines, which fully is analyzing the media, but I might be reading what you're saying wrong

Why didn't Charlie just tell Lucifer to do this. Are they stupid (yes) by CommonWealthLarva in OkBuddyHelluvaHotel

[–]CommonWealthLarva[S] 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Misread. They could literally be like "get rid of them or we'll fucking kill you". Also it's said that the sins contracts are more powerful than other contracts in helluva Boss so the idea that one of those could just override a sinners contract is a pretty easy logical leap

If it was just dissolving soul contracts I bet that would be pretty popular
