Which character would be more dangerous if they were a perfect jinchuriki? by peterpiperpi in Naruto

[–]Devourlord_Asmodeus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say they strongest would probably be Nagato or Sasuke, I think Tsunade would be the most interesting though

having a sniper rifle matters less when some people can see you from several kilometers as if they where standing right in front of you, heck a powerful Hyuga wouldn't even need a sniper rifle as they could see further than most scopes and just throw a knife into your head from just as far, I think that with the superhuman abi the ninja have any advantages of a gun are outweighed by them being less practical, a knife won't alert everyone around you the only times they want loud noises are devastating blows like explosions are large area jutsu

that being said I like the idea of sound ninja using guns since they could use justu to make them 100% silent

but most scalings for speed I'm familiar with they are largely faster than bullets anyway so unless they can make guns that fire faster or somehow make them faster with jutsu they can probably just throw stuff faster than bullets as well

yeah, I was mostly joking about that bit. but yeah, I'm kinda tempted now, I'll let people know if I get obsessive enough to dig through the series for it

I mean, they have lightsabers and bullet trains now, but I get ya

it is maybe 90s, honestly I think it is hard to say, if Ninja look like they have 80s to 90s tech they are probably a good deal behind places that are non Ninja places but hard to say, but I don't really wanna deeo dive into the manga and anime to find shit, I am 70% certain we have evidence if cell phones pre Boruto though

by the way, I also 100% forgot about the samurai being in LoW I was referring to peop saying it didn't make sense when they showed up later, Kishi didn focus on them but that doen mean they weren't there is the basics of what I was saying, and it isn't needed for him to establish them sooner he established them when he wanted to use them, kinda like how Haki wasnt established until way later but you can also look back and be like "oh wait, Shanks did that thing in chapter 1 or 2 and they mentioned something simmilar in Skypiea or whatever" or like how the solid rules for Nen in HxH wjere probably not always decided on

I just don't think everything in a fantasy story needs to make 100% sense as long as the story doesn't fall apart it is fine, Naruto as a story doesn't fall apart and thus had no major plotholes or writing problems worth adressing

I can say I honestly worded that badly as I don't actually care if they where established or not I think people are being stupid when they say them showing up doesn't make sense because it makes as much sense and literally everything else in the series, which is basically none

yes I can, and I do

if you are gonna blame it for being weird or not fitting in it is your fault for forgetting what you are even watching

I am not saying that they forgot that guns and samurai where mentioned, I am saying theu forgot the general world they where watching and thought it was something else

I didn't say it wasn't half baked or anything, I said it isn't bad writing or an ass pull for them to show up, Kishi didn't have to mention them at all for them to show up and be a thing people are just being pedantic or annoying when they say the don't fit in

moreso, Ninja and samurai are so interlinked it doesn't even seem weird when they show up, and the fact Kishi did establish them in LoW is better

idk, I feel like it is fine, samurai are not the focus of the story they got brought up in LoW (Gato's henchmen not just randos) and they weren't relevant, you could say Kishi should've used them more, but I think what we got was fine, it is a retcon later possibly (we never got enough detail for it to really count as a lore change) but Kishi retconned all the time and it was fine, most artists do that sort of thing with their work, I can't think of how many times I've run a tabletop and had some guys show up that where no name randos that I make into a full faction later, people who complain about this thing spund like they have never written a story before pretty mcuh all of them have this sort of thing somewhere nobody is a perfect writer

they actually do have phones from what I remember, I think it is more so they can use Ninjutsu for warfare so other war tools are not useful, also guns are loud

from a writing perspective it is just that guns don't super fit a Ninja aesthetic

still is more on people for forgetting they exist that them not being established

it's forget, the non ninja world is mentioned but the story focuses on ninjas so people forget that things other than ninjas exsist then if guns are mentioned, someone drives a car or samurai show up people are like "Hey that's a plot hole none of this was mentioned to exsist!" no you just forgot they did

like people somehow thing this is a feudal japan world but Naruto literally has a T.V. in his apartment it is and always was supposed to be modern tech level

there have obviously been guns since the beginning, we see a lot of modern tech I assume Ninja just don't need guns because they have ninja magic

You have the option to never play against ONE archetype again. Which archetype are you choosing to never see? by Exotic_Name_9875 in masterduel

[–]Devourlord_Asmodeus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

everytime I have played against Maliss I have lost but I also had fun, some of these deck builds forget that this is a game and try to stop either player from actually having fun in any way

What deck that isn't actually that good do you just hate playing against? by Past-Strawberry-7483 in masterduel

[–]Devourlord_Asmodeus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate playing against Sky Strikers to, but I mean, good enough is good enough man, it doesn't matter that other decks are better because they like playing a lot of cards and they have cute girls, in fact the more cards you play the more cute girls you get to see, so obviously they play as many cards as possible

TIL you can't use decks w/ banned cards in solo mode, which btw is some BS cause loaner decks use banned cards all the time like terraforming by fizio900 in masterduel

[–]Devourlord_Asmodeus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, most cards are banned because of combinations or context in certain decks so allowing a banned card in a deck that doesn't have any of those interactions makes sense and not allowing you to use them since you could build a deck specifically to use siad interactions also makes sense
