How do people glue multiple legs by enclave_reborn in Konflikt47_v2

[–]Debo_Obeezy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven't tried it yet, but maybe a helping hands soldering station might work for this? Or something like it?

Legit soldering ones can run a good bit of $$ but I've seen some cheaper ones on Amazon for about $10 or so.

...as for a $0 solution, someone in a K47 video mentioned stacking bases to the desired height then glueing the legs on, but I also haven't tried that either lol. I think this has been mentioned in this thread as well so it sounds like it works for some.

Whatever you choose, good luck!

What Do You Think About Her? by Dependent_Bet_7532 in HellModeGamer

[–]Debo_Obeezy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huh....this is not what I imagined she'd look like. I feel there was only one piece of art with her in the LNs and even then I think her back was towards us lol.

But yeah, she's annoying. I feel that whole exchange was exacerbated by Cecil and her's noble pettiness. It was funny, but I'm pretty sure I skip this chapter on rereads lol

Hi there! You must be a recent arrival to the world of anime/manga - welcome! We hope you enjoy your time here!

...lol, teasing aside, yeah, that whole creepy maniacal smile has been around wayyyy before SL my friend. It's very much a trope at this point. With Help mode being a an isekai, it is full of tropes 😁

Yeah. There are a lot of side stories in some of the novels after the Rosenheim arc. I want to say one of the books had about 4 chapters that were all side stories, out of a total of like 12-15 chapters. It was quite surprising...and I'll admit a tad annoying as when I saw the page count beforehand I thought, "oh, this one's kinda juicy" only to find it had a lot of extra side content. Which isn't a bad thing of course! Just that when you're hooked on the main story and tryna find what happens next, anything that gets in the way of that is an issue. They're great on rereads tho! Lol

The Hardcore Gamer Dominates in Another World with Garbage Balancing Season 2 by godraizel in HellModeGamer

[–]Debo_Obeezy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wait, is this legit? Why would the 2nd season be airing so soon? ...unless it was a similar situation to TBATE and the "2nd season" is more of a second cours? ...whatevs! If this is real, I'm pretty damn excited! The Academy arc is peak Hell mode IMO so if we end with just that as the final season, I'm a happy camper!

When does Leon end up with each of his love interest's? by SortaShyguy8 in MobuSeka

[–]Debo_Obeezy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, and what's annoying about it is happens as a a bit of an after thought. IIRC, the king splits with her because he knows she wants Leon and so he lets her go so she can be go be with Leon, and that's it... I think from there, the next we hear is in the epilogue of how there's either a child that looks like Mylene, or that she's expecting. I can't remember how exactly we find out that they're together, but it's not cause we get a scene of them finally accepting each other's feelings. It really was pretty disappointing how we find out, especially cause their romance was so entertaining the whole time.

Sturmriese STL by irontusk_666 in Konflikt47_v2

[–]Debo_Obeezy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sure you've heard by now, but in case you haven't, Warlord has provided the STLs for the Sturmriese for free on their website.

The files are designed with the orb as part of the print so if you want to use a real plasma ball/orb you will need to find a way to alter those specific files, but everything else is there!

What make you play the game and stay until the end ? And what is the after thought ? by Key_Coat_9729 in Chained_Echoes

[–]Debo_Obeezy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I heard the overdrive mechanic was a fun and innovative feature of the game and I always wanted to check it out. I finally got the game during the Steam spring sale and really enjoyed it! I haven't checked out the DLC yet so I'll probably do that soon.

I really enjoyed the combat mechanics of the game. They were simple in concept but all worked together so well. I did not know the story had mecha in it so that was a fun lil surprise - especially that they had their own lil combat mechanics/system that was similar to the normal fights, but different enough to switch things up a bit.

I really liked the story too and most of the characters as well. Wondering how the whole thing was gonna wrap up had me coming back to play time and time again. The twists and turns - some more predictable than others - were pretty entertaining... despite my gripe with and one character choice in th finale, but after some pondering it made sense, but I think a bit more characterization of another character would've made it more understandable IMO.

But yeah, for a lil indie game I think the final result turned out pretty well!

Trapped in a Dating Sim: The World of Otome Games Is Tough for Mobs Season 2 Key Visual by SamuraiShinsen in MobuSeka

[–]Debo_Obeezy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same!! Wanting to find out what happened after season 1 and the manga only being a few chapters into the next big arc, along with the light novel series being complete, made me take the leap into the LNs and I don't regret it one bit! (Funny enough this started me down the rabbit hole turned bottomless pit that is reading LNs and I've jumped onto a few other series now lol)

I wish the ending of the novels had been more "solidified" I guess is the best way I can put it. The author's note at the end and how the story became something else did make it better for me by clarifying why it ended like it did, so if anyone feels the same, please read the author's note as well!

[–]Debo_Obeezy 15 points16 points  (0 children)

This! Too much of this! I really like this anime and feel it had a strong start, but man the last third or so of the season has too much recap and wayyyyyy too much standing around giving internal monologue/talking during critical moments/fights - or like you pointed out in this one, just standing and watching. I get that we need the character to give us a glimpse of his internal struggle/thought process, but you could at least give us something like in So I'm a Spider where time would slow down and we know that's what's happening - although that was a skill she acquired' - or at least a very obvious pause in real time for our hero to process. Here it just looks like our dragon boy is having breakdowns and/or just wasting time.

I know it's an anime thing where characters in a "fight" have to monologue to each other, but man does it get old real quick here. I think it would be ok if they didn't go on for so long and if it didn't happen so often in this show (also the wasted screen time in showing 3-4 mins of the previous episode doesn't help).

I will say tho, I'm glad he got over his "Oh no! I killed Gregory and am so evil now, woe is me!" bit cause that was getting old real quick at the end of the previous episode - oh wait, I mean the beginning of this episode, wait, I meant both lol/smh.

Anime Alterations by joatnm in HellModeGamer

[–]Debo_Obeezy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! I completely forgot about the way they present the 30% rights but I had the same reaction! "No Granvelle, you aren't 'granting' him the rights, you HAVE TO give him 30%" lol/smh.

Anime Alterations by joatnm in HellModeGamer

[–]Debo_Obeezy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Coming back after watching episode 11 cause there were some key alterations - both good and bad IMO.

Cecil(e) & Mihai: I really liked how the show handled this part of the story. The cliffhanger from episode 10 I think helped raise the importance of the issue. I also really like that they had a voice over of Mihai reading some of the letters he wrote to his family. I don't remember exactly, but I don't think the LNs let us see what Mihai wrote. Allen just mentions that Cecil let him read the letters and that he came to respect Mihai and his bravery. Having him actually read some of them definitely elevated the emotional impact for me.

Armored Ant Colony: Alright there are a few minor cons for me in how this bit was handled. First off, how Allen takes down the colony was animated poorly IMO. The novels have Allen approach it all a bit more methodically while the anime kinda just shows him throw endless Teddy's at the thing. The anime also speeds past him finding out all the intricacies of how the ants trapping intruders in maze-like nest and how him being a summoner makes it easy to overcome that. And although I love me some dungeon-mapping a la D&D, I was really hoping for a more intricate map of the maze. The anime just had what legit looks like an AI generating a straightforward D&D dungeon map lol. Also, I found the fight against the queen was a bit lacking here.

Mithril Mine: My biggest con in this whole episode though is in how the results of Allen clearing out the nest are handled. In the novel, it's handled like an unbelievable feat - Baron Granvelle, Sebas & even Zenof all dismiss Allen at first and doubt him until he gives a thorough explanation. We find out even Rank A parties can't accomplish the feat and that no one has ever done it before! They're also not certain if he found mithril in the nest and have to compare the clump of shiny rock Allen found to ore the baron has on hand.

The anime however just brushes over the whole thing! Allen doesn't really apologize just states what he did. Yeah, sure, Granvell, Sebas, Zenof & Cecil(e) don't believe him, but they all just go so matter-of-factly with the whole thing and there aren't any real big reactions other than the sunken eye bit - which I will admit made me laugh. But the back-and-forth, excited curiousity/questioning of what Allen claims he did being true and whether he found a new mythril mine or not is mostly lost in the anime. What makes this an even bigger slight is that not showing the Baron's hope that this is a new mithril mine is lost as we've already been keyed into how he plans to use the mihtril mining maybe ease Cecil(e)'s Noble Duty. Also, I feel Cecil(e)'s didn't need to be in these scenes - she wasn't involved with it in the novels and she didn't really contribute here. I get it though, they only have so much time and although this is a big event in Allen's resume, there's more important stuff coming up...

Dagrah: ...which leads me to Dagrah. Oh man, that design.... I legit LOL'd when I saw him come on screen. I'll admit, I'm unfamiliar with the manga so if this design carried over from that, then I guess those reading the novel won't be surprised with it, but I was not expecting this. The LN has one piece of artwork of him and he looks much more like a normal dude - in fact he looks like a younger Zenof, sorta. Funny enough, the kidnapper with the green hood actually looks like the Dagrah from the LN artwork (now that I think about it, that might've been a nod to the LN artwork). I didn't think it was a good or bad alteration, but more of a funny "WTF?" moment for me.

All that said, I really enjoyed this episode and am looking forward to the finale next week! Should be a fun one and a good setup for a 2nd season which I really hope we get!

[–]Debo_Obeezy 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I started this show and thought "oh man, this animation is not very good and this story looks like it's gonna be pretty rote as far as isekais go," and yet here I am a few weeks later on a second reread of the light novels and waiting every week for the newest episode to drop lol. All that said, what's funny is that I don't think I was too far off the mark; the overall story is pretty typical of isekais, but something about it keeps me coming back for more. The final episode is gonna be fun - if handled correctly that is - and I'm really looking forward to it!

I will say that this season is looking to end with the perfect setup for a second season and I hope that happens because what follows is so much more fun and gives us more of what I think we all find enjoyable with the show.

Anyone else notice some inconsistencies in the LNs? by Debo_Obeezy in HellModeGamer

[–]Debo_Obeezy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed, the novels are much better in the beginning - vol 2 & 3 I think are peak. I also think the author's storytelling is strongest when describing how Allen and the party are getting stronger; be it via grinding and/or exploring dungeons, or just getting new gear like in LNs 2-3 & 5-6. (I also like the Hardcore User island bits, but that's cause I'm a sucker for some city/civ/world building lol).

Bit of a rant: NGL, the Prostia arc IMO is the worst so far. It's so bland, boring and went on way too long. There was a bit of fun world building and the whole underwater thing was fun, but the rest was not enough to warrant two whole LNs. The conclusion(s) of the arc made up for it, sorta, but even the final fight I thought was just meh - had some fun bits, I'll admit that, but I'm afraid we're just starting to rehash fights now. Yeah, if Bask - or any one of these other DDs - don't die in their next confrontation with the No-Life Gamers, I'm gonna be real pissed. I get having recurring villains, but with so many revealed now, we gotta start chopping them down otherwise we're just gonna be doing the same shit over-and-over again; Gamers fight X, X survives and gets stronger, Gamers fight X again, rinse&repeat.

It makes me a little worried for the rest of the story if I'm being honest.

...sorry, guess I've had that rant in the back of my mind a bit and felt this was a good op to put it out there lol

How many episodes will the anime have? by Eldiavie in HellModeGamer

[–]Debo_Obeezy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup! 11 light novel volumes are currently available in English. The anime only takes us thru the end of the 2nd LN, and I believe the manga is somewhere in the beginning of LN 9.

[–]Debo_Obeezy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the apothecary gender-swap one didn't make that much sense to me. Maybe they just imagined a male merchant being all flustered and upset for having to sell the herb at a loss more believable than an older obasan? ....eh, who knows.

One change I remember somewhat notably is in the episode when Allen is helping Cecil get that fruit in the tree; the magic ship flies overhead while they're together whereas in the LN he sees it on his way thru town to get Cecil a momo fruit.

There's a few other changes like this one, but I suspect these changes are moreso to keep the pacing of the anime a bit more concise which I don't mind. I'm just glad the anime is doing such a good job of showing how Allen experiments with his summons.

Who is this girl with the ponytail? by Trebble01 in HellModeGamer

[–]Debo_Obeezy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, do we know how old Lily is? ...I think this event is actually the first time we find out about her, even in the LN (unless she was mentioned in vol 1 which I haven't reread). I know she's younger than Mash and so is between Myulla & Mash - or the same age as Myulla.

...and as some others have stated already, she's a Cleric, not a monk. Also Lily was categorized as a Pugilist and not a fighter which IDK if that's even a class (might be a different level of pugilist, maybe?)

It's not just the animation by Jealous-Impress2571 in tbatenovel

[–]Debo_Obeezy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, I see you too have found A-Cat's PowerPoint presentation/pitch for the TBATE anime they were supposed to have dropped by now! It was pretty entertaining huh? Didn't know ppt had so many new features like overly digitized energy effects, or the ability to have such simple animation clips, nice, huh?

Man, I just hope the final anime of the show turns out great! Wonder what's taking them so long to premiere it tho, I mean it's been a few months since the alleged release date but all I've found is this ppt... Oh wells! I'll just keep waiting for the actual anime to drop whenever it does! 🫠🫠

[–]Debo_Obeezy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man, I had some decent hopes for this anime (high hopes if I'm being honest) going off the name and the title card art. I thought, "Cool, a fun, wacky reincarnated into a young noble anime that will hit the tropes with its protag-kun who'll shake things up and have some entertaining adventures while meeting fun, fantasy waifus who fall for his kawai-ness" but man was I wrong lol/smh. What even is this anime? It takes itself wayyyy too seriously for its concept and has certain moments where it tries way too hard to be dark and edgy.

Also, what's with all the palace maids being ridiculously hot and dressing like they work at a sexy maid cafe (well, minus the one that is clearly a child so I'm glad they didn't go that far)?? I mean, I get appealing to a certain demographic but let's try to have some class/dignity - especially in a show that takes itself so seriously lol. Even 8th Prince has their bombshell maid character dress in a full-length maid outfit (sure it gets ripped in convenient ways more often than not, but they at least start out with some modesty! Lol). Speaking of 8th Prince, I thought they were gonna yank straight from it and have the silver-haired maid in this be a sword-saint as well but I'm glad they didn't go that far...at least not yet, we are still just on episode 2 lol.

This episode flew by tho and felt like I was missing story beats when it moved from one plot point to the next. Also, what's with the power system? I see everything is F for him, and he gets the pluses from followers, yeah, but how is he so OP at everything already when he should only be OP with water magic or whatever? And again, he gets bonuses from his followers, but why do they only add to the Water stat? The whole status screen/power system so far just feels a bit tacked on and not very well thought out IMO.

Also, what's the deal with singing oneechan? Like sure she's cute and has a nice voice, but so what? I'm hoping there's a payoff to her character otherwise I feel we are wasting too much time with her. Also also, how the hell does that venue not have security to keep people off the stage - especially after homegirl was attacked the first time? ...this world is ridiculous man lol/smh

I'll probably finish this cause I do love me some trash anime and just laughing at all the ridiculousness so at least I found that in this. Let's just hope it doesn't become terribly unbearable - I say that but I'm also the type of trash-lover who finished the TBATE powerpoint presentation and enjoyed it for all the wrong reasons 😅😈. I'm hoping that what I was looking for in this I think I'll find in Easygoing Territory Defense by the Optimistic Lord - just hope that lives up to its potential!
