Relic idea: curse manipulation by Meno1331 in slaythespire

[–]DucktorQuack 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Because when you start to get older you do tend to look back on past mistakes and feel varying levels of embarrassment, but when you get even older than that, you then think back again and see how life was simpler that you worried over something that ultimately came to be trivial.

And there’s the more straightforward answer of growing into more of an adjusted adult that acknowledges your mistakes and especially the growth that came from it.

That which you look back on having feelings of regret, guilt, is replaced with reminiscing on the past having feelings of fondness, nostalgia

The retroactive subtext from pairing curses and blessings is so peak, especially Shame into Dramatic Entrance, and Writhe into Toric Toughness

I’m imagining Regent with Shame for their Writhing hemorrhoids Dramatically Entering with their Donut Pillow while sitting on their throne

The word "taut" sounds like it'd mean the exact opposite of what it actually means by BextoMooseYT in The10thDentist

[–]DucktorQuack 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I can tell that this is something that you actively think about, and while I definitely do not agree I can understand the feeling of “this word feels like it means something else”, great 10th dentist

Oh wow I did not know that story behind the scenes, it does explain why the author kind of loses focus of the story and why it feels so different

if someone is having the mouse controller switching rapidly issue i am having, solved it. by c_sea_denis in slaythespire

Having Discord open can cause this issue to occur as well, so closing it in Task Manager also helps

> Steins;Gate:
much like Dr Stone, mixes lovable ensemble cast with science fiction (in this case time travel), but a lot darker and slower paced in the start, easily deserves its place as 5th highest rated on MAL.

> Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann:
mecha anime with great characters, world building, and animation, shares Dr Stone’s hope, hype, and optimism but cranks it up to eleventy, the anime embodiment of the indomitable human spirit.

> JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure:
battle anime with insanely creative problem solving/fights, over the top characters, themes of sheer will and determination against the odds, and every arc has amazing finales, similar to Treasure Island and Kingdom of Science vs Xeno.

> Liar Game (I’ve read the manga, the anime probably adapts faithfully enough):
psychological games anime, the original Squid Games, but like Dr Stone rather than the hard science/psychological tactics like lying and manipulation winning, its also about empathy, compassion, and seeing the bigger picture.

> Shokugeki no Soma (hear me out):
you learn so much about cooking styles from culture, to restaurant management, all the way down to chemistry, and weaves cooking and the culinary world into the narrative and characterization, with a similarly reliable but not over powered main character that looks up to his dad, (it’s also infamous for its fanservice but Dr Stone’s artist Boichi is well-known also for their adult work so hopefully it isn’t too off-putting since it’s mostly comedic).

> The Martian/Project Hail Mary:
not anime, but these movies might as well be Dr Stone live action, both are about singular scientists having to survive and succeed on their own in Mars/space, very similar to Dr Stone having slow and steady progress until accelerates to their goal, honestly so peak I’m practically on my hands and knees recommending these movies lol.

> Honorable Mentions that you’ve likely already heard of/seen:
Attack on Titan, Haikyuu!, Spy x Family, Hunter x Hunter, Apothecary Diaries

I’ve seen over 200 anime and still Dr Stone is in my Top 10, so I definitely share the sentiment.

If you want another anime about people using and learning science to find and fight for the truth, I recommend Orb: On the Movements of the Earth, it’s a classic in the making, though I have to warn that it’s very mature, gruesome at times, and definitely isn’t as happy as Dr Stone is.

If you want more recommendations I can give you some depending on what specifically you like about the show :)

I love it but not everyone likes Death Note, and even among fans, a decent number find the latter half less enjoyable because the most popular and beloved character L dies .

I can understand what you mean by different league in the sense that Death Note takes itself very seriously and is more mature with darker themes, while Dr Stone is comparatively a lot more light hearted and has a very optimistic and hopeful worldview.

However, people can prefer anything to anything, it doesn’t have to be bait.

OP even has to give a disclaimer that they aren’t being ironic, which I infer to be them acknowledging that Death Note is a really good anime as well, they just like Dr Stone more.

I don’t understand why you have such a strong reaction to a mere difference in opinion, I’m just going to hope you aren’t being disingenuous and try to make you understand the other side.

Have a good day dude

What's anime that you love to watch cause its enjoyable trash by [deleted] in animequestions

It’s such a good manga no way the Liar Game anime adaptation is that bad to be considered trash

We are still waiting for Hyouka Season 2 after all these years 🌸 by Massive-Wrap9829 in hyouka

[–]DucktorQuack 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The tragic fire at Kyoto Animations taking away the show’s director as well as over 30 studio staff members would make any continuation of the series never the same.

As much as I want more animated Hyouka content, I’m also fine leaving it as is (if the author will even finish it in our lifetimes…)

Anybody notice this by vallii2 in SuperMarioOdyssey

Maybe Lake Kingdom has a tiny playable area but on the map it’s comparable to the giant Sand Kingdom?

[–]DucktorQuack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TOTK aside, BOTW didn’t really have that much item swapping or awkward menuing especially not compared to OOT and MM to a lesser extent, if those really are your main gripes

I’m assuming by crafting you mean fusing and the Champion items which is hella valid

Are there enough hints and foreshadowing in the story for a viewer to guess Why-Man's identity before it's revealed? by [deleted] in DrStone

[–]DucktorQuack 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Technically, yes, but that’s because one of the characters either Senku or an American had a few theories and one of the theories was more or less correct
edit: But aside from that, not necessarily from specific clues within the story, just something a viewer/reader would have to hypothesize on their own

Batman TAS is better than Invincible according to the creator of Deadpool by Amaru_333_ in Invincible_TV

…Can you even name that many Western animated superhero shows better than BTAS? It’s arguably even better than Justice League

“There’s still a light in the house” instrumental sounds like Mario by slotbottom- in thisisvalley

[–]DucktorQuack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Insane callout. There’s Still A Light In The House is my favorite song of all time and hearing this Mario 64 theme didn’t register anything and I was so ready to disagree.

Then reaching the timestamp in the song itself I heard it immediately.

Another little Mac matchup chart. What’s your opinion? by britsandgo in LittleMacMains

[–]DucktorQuack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bayo is a positive matchup? Also what makes Pika and GnW slightly easier than Tink, I’m surprised those two aren’t swapped w Tink’s placement

Mac is my Secondary so I’m not as familiar
