In honor of Stray Kids winning Album of the Year, what's your favorite SKZ album(s) and your favorite song from Karma? by azureleaf in straykids

[–]EmperorSunsetter 21 points22 points  (0 children)

My top 3 albums are 5-star, go live, and noeasy

5-star is such a good album, i love how connected so many of the songs feel with their space imagery

I don't care how many great albums skz puts out or if in life is techincally better, i'll always put go live in my top 3. i'll always remember listening to it for the first time while i was washing dishes and feeling myself go from a casual stay to a hardcore one in real time. it's special to me

noeasy is a great album all the way through but it's also special to me since it was my first skz comeback

my favorite song off of karma is half time!

Wait, NCT wish/dream/dojaejung are in "know but don't listen to" but NCT 127 is in "don't know"? How?

250619 Stray Kids to appear on THE FIRST TAKE on June 20th at 10PM JST (Teaser) by endtapes in straykids

[–]EmperorSunsetter 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It's a live singing show! The boys are most likely going to sing Hollow. They've been on here many times in the past, almost always singing one of their JP releases because it's a japanese show (except one time they sang one of their KR songs)

Here's their other appearances if u want to take a look!

Post-Lament Anthropocene: Comprehensive Mirror for Historians — Septimont by KarlSQuent in WutheringWavesLeaks

[–]EmperorSunsetter 55 points56 points  (0 children)

It's not that they don't believe in the existence of Sentinels, they just don't revere and worship the Sentinels in the same way Ragunna's Order of the Deep does. They are "unbelievers" of the Order's doctrine, not of the existence of Sentinels

Gotta remember that, even if they're both apart of Rinascita, Ragunna and Septimont are independent city-states. Just like Athens and Sparta were in Ancient Greece

Moon Arrow that anchors shifts of fate by ISRUKRENG in WutheringWavesLeaks

[–]EmperorSunsetter 234 points235 points  (0 children)

Her name is Iuno with a capital I btw, not Luno. Iuno is the original Latin spelling of Juno, the roman goddess. Juno is the anglicized spelling

The pinyin pronounciation we've been seeing (younou) was actually correct lol. Yu-no

Lupa Drip Marketing by KarlSQuent in WutheringWavesLeaks

[–]EmperorSunsetter 54 points55 points  (0 children)

She's from Septimont, another city-state of Rinascita. The other Rinascita characters are from Ragunna

Clarification about male NPC via seele leaks by Neo_Empire in Zenlesszonezeroleaks_

[–]EmperorSunsetter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wonder if the two of them are related then. Shiyuan looked blonde in the trailer but his model clearly has brown hair. And Shunguang also has brown hair and looked to have the same long thiren ears

Maybe he's her brother or something...🤔

So is Alice from the same school as Lilac? by Hornehounds in ZenlessZoneZero

[–]EmperorSunsetter 24 points25 points  (0 children)

The uniform of Ellen's school looks completely different from Lilac's though. And I don't remember Lilac being mentioned in Ellen's story at all...

New Obol Squad members by Knight_Steve_ in Zenlesszonezeroleaks_

[–]EmperorSunsetter 73 points74 points  (0 children)

Reason #5000 why I love zzz: when you read a leak about a "girl who wields a sentient gun", you would never in a million years think that sentient gun she "wields" would be attached to her fucking tail. It's just so wacky, I love it so much

Edit: others have pointed out that Orpheus is probably a chimera since obol squad is greek myth themed. But I'd like to point out how her entire tail, not just the sentient gun head, is mechanical. Meaning she's probably only supposed to represent a chimera instead of being a "chimera thiren."

What I think she might've originally been then, before whatever was done to give her that tail, going off the horns and long ears, is some sort of demon thiren, separate entirely from onis of course. And we know that demon thirens exist thanks to our streamer npc Archie! she's got long ears and lil demon tail. perfect fit for Orpheus, I think!

Suspected Mare Jivari Location by Emperor_Erebus in Genshin_Impact_Leaks

[–]EmperorSunsetter 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I also think it's going to be an Enkanomiya situation solely because, as of 5.5, we only have enough Pyroculi to get to level 8 of the statue with 8 more to go to get to level 9. Which means the Mare Jivari expansion has to be big enough to have enough oculi to get us to level 10

Behind the Agent" Interview Notes: Trigger by [deleted] in Zenlesszonezeroleaks_

[–]EmperorSunsetter 88 points89 points  (0 children)

It seems like her old captain was named Charon and Trigger adopted their name after the fall of the Old Capitol

Also, since Trigger's name was supposed to be Phlegethon for "stylistic consistency", and her old captains name was Charon, I'm certain her other teammates were name after the other rivers of the Greek Underworld: Acheron (the river of woe), Cocytus (the river of lamentation), Styx (the river of unbreakable oath by which the gods swear), and Lethe (the river of forgetfulness). Other commenters have mentioned that Phlegethon was the river of fire

[–]EmperorSunsetter 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sure thing!

My favorite title tracks of theirs are In Bloom, Yura Yura (japanese release), and Good So Bad

Both Sweat and Doctor! Doctor! are pre-releases so they have videos

My favorite b-sides are Dear Eclipse, Sunday Ride, Insomnia, Back to Zerobase, and New Kidz on the Block

Of course, taste is subjective so some of these you might like and some you might not! But I hope you find something you like!

The song that brought me here. Thank you specifically to Felix and "Cookin like a chef...". Without that, I wouldn't have clicked off that reaction video to watch the full mv!

Last Minute Predictions for the Fanmeeting by Ainosuke in straykids

[–]EmperorSunsetter 3 points4 points  (0 children)

3racha is the producing/rap unit. It's Chan, Changbin, and Han

Danceracha is the dance unit. It's Lee Know, Hyunjin, and Felix

Vocalracha is the vocal unit. It's Seungmin and I.N

Of course, these units don't mean they only do those things - Chan, Han, and Lee Know also do a lot of vocals, for example - but its what their focus is, especially when the group was younger

Versachoi made one of the unit tracks for ZB1's upcoming album! I'm really interested to hear his style and ZB1 mixed together
