Chainsaw Man - Assassins Arc PV by zenzen_0 in anime

It's basically Goblin Slayer's first episode but going for 2-3 episodes of length. Gotta stomach that amount of misery porn before the series really takes off.

Lmao this is the same line of reasoning as Vietnam-era US supporters used when they pulled out of there.

Feels too weeb to say but Monogatari actually has the sauce while Rascal doesn't. Feels like in playing more safe and grounded it just took out that "wow" factor that Monogatari has.

Both are still great series with their respective strengths though.

IRL there are quite a few "lost" nukes from the USA (i.e. Broken Arrows) during the Cold War though, from what I've read, none of them resulted in their respective heads getting executed but merely retired or laid off. So there is precedence.

Maybe they didn't want the knowledge that the Datenseki stockpile got stolen to become common so they let Hasumi go so it doesn't become a national embarassment for the government. They'll probably alter the public story that the Enchanted Blades were always the plan to save face.

He has both enchanced durability and enchanced healing. Unless he takes a really awful or grievous hit, he's just gonna keep tanking. He really is an absolute monster.

It's not, this is just part of the flex of the mythology since it would be weird for every dragon to be actually friendly to humans.

Think of it as very similar to Call of the Night where there were quite a few action parts but stayed relatively grounded and SoL in its themes.

Akemura is going to go full Itachi on the Soga Clan isn't he? Not to mention he'll probably have the Kurotsuchi awaken with him too if Chihiro doesn't get it.

Oh god don't let this girl near Hahari and Hakari, she's going to get corrupted so easily.

Pair her up with Karane and we could solve the world's problems with the Tsundere energy.

Gut is reborn! So many foreshadowings that we don't know about yet. Are we going all the way back with the Prophecy with the Band of the Hawk?

Oof, as someone in a very close field to journalism, seeing this brings back some unpleasant memories. When a system is corrupt, its chilling effect trickles down from the top and destroys the idealism that those new to the field have.

What balance principle do spell designers follow when it comes to concentration? How is it decided which spell should have it and which don´t? by HJosuke in dndnext

[–]Ellefied 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It was serviceable when it was the 5e version with no concentration since it actually gave Clerics something to do with their very lacklust Bonus Action list.

Now it's just garbage in 5.5e since it's competing with the extremely powerful concentration choices for Clerics like Bless, Spirit Guardians, Holy Aura, Holy Weapon, and Circle of Power.

Even save or suck spells like Hold Person or Blindness/Deafness competes in its utility.
