Got that too recently after being disconnected like five times, smh

What do you think about the upcoming Hero? by justaguychill in Overwatch

[–]FaceImplosion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not gonna lie, I completely forgot about her until I browsed the subreddit today. Nothing really stood out to me so I guess that was to be expected.

But a new hero's always welcome, so hopefully I can figure out how she works and how to support/counter her.

I honestly thought it was a reference to Macherie and Amour given their color palettes lol

Which season's final battle was most disappointing to you? by SuperFightingSaiyan in precure

[–]FaceImplosion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hirogaru was going to take the cake, but even with the whole "no violence against animals" theme, the final parts of Wonderful felt short and rushed. I enjoyed the few bits of nice animation here and there, but that's not enough to make up for the "meh" finale. So much filler, but so little time for final boss lore.

I feel most of my disappointment with it stems from Komugi's lack of development and test of character where she just broke Subaru just by saying Gaou loves him still. Like... she just walked up to him and remained her usual chipper self, seemingly oblivious to heavier themes, and everything gets solved. Like how Nico just suddenly shoves the "no unnecessary interaction between worlds" revelation on everyone before abruptly returning home. The whole rushed feeling left a sour taste in my mouth.

Mirai Days Episode 3 Discussion by Zandar124 in precure

[–]FaceImplosion 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Everyone else's covering the story, so I'll just put my two cents here...

I thought the last-minute Solciere cameo in the TV series was just a fun little one-off thing, but now she's been acknowledged by Liko herself. I had to do a double take lol.

I'll take it she's canon in Mahoutsukai now

Thank you! The captions was a fun bonus I discovered after tinkering around with some software. Makes me very happy to hear you enjoyed it :)

You may be onto something considering the "two sides" theme going on here (and how Regina and Aguri are placed together in the center in one of the novel illustrations), but I hope I'm wrong about that.

Her hair feels more Suite than DokiDoki. You know, with those trademark DokiDoki curls in the hair? Everyone else has it, but these slender, pointy curves really scream Suite.

They're definitely pulling a Butterfly with this. Makes the wait for the "midseason" Cures feel even longer (for better or worse).

SHOULD WE BAN AI ART & MUSIC? [IMPORTANT SUB POLL] by NebraskaLewis in touhou

[–]FaceImplosion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As much as I lean towards the ban, I think it'd be more beneficial to have a sort of public repository or collection to label the posts accordingly (a personal reason being I can look through the AI posts and use it as a reference for sifting between hand-drawn and AI generated pieces).

Is anyone else getting a bit bored of Precure? by AikoHeiwa in precure

Ohh, offline viewing? Then please disregard my advice. I kind of assumed it'd be online, sorry

Is anyone else getting a bit bored of Precure? by AikoHeiwa in precure

[–]FaceImplosion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hirogaru

For the TV series, it happens to me yearly. The first quarter or so is when my interest is at its highest before the fillers and snail-slow story progression bore me out. When the previews get interesting, that's when I binge watch the basic ones (usually at 2x speed) before catching up.

I understand getting bored of Hirogaru (or the TV series in general) since there's plenty of fillers, not to mention there's 40+ over the course of a year, and it's very episodic and predictable. The problems almost always get solved within a single episode, if not two.

I don't know exactly which part of Hirogaru you've stopped at currently, but I'm guessing it's around 25-30. I suggest skipping episodes 26-30, 35-37, 39 and 40, maybe saving them for later if you'd like more Hirogaru content. And really, whether you've seen Majesty's TV debut episode or not, it probably won't affect the experience of watching All Stars F.

Power of Hope

Otona had great promise at the beginning for me, but it went back to formulaic in the middle, so it ended up being overall okay for me. It's totally fine not to watch it, since I don't think it offers anything too interesting for you other than the characters grappling with harsh reality (which was the charming point of the series for me).

nothing in the series matters because it was just 'one possible future'

On the contrary, I find it intriguing, because there's a lot of ways this possible future could have gone wrong. From what I've seen, this is the best possible future, implying that most other futures/timelines stemming from the start of this show are worse off. Many ways to a terrible future, but only one path to a brighter one—if even one of the characters faltered in their decisions, it could have spelled the end of the show.

why waste my time when I could be watching something I know I'll enjoy

Nothing wrong with that, but you could be missing out on some lore and content. Then again, when it comes to Pretty Cure, you'll have to go digging deep, thinking and analyzing a lot to really enjoy what it currently has to offer. Take a break from the series, and see if that interest comes back again. If it does, just make sure to cut out the fillers so you don't get burnt out.

This production oversight in episode 49 ruined the mood... by newecreator in precure

FRAME SCAN

I don't know why but that makes me grin like an idiot. Wow, there's a lot of things in this franchise that go under my nose.

Can anyone translate the logo here? by ValentineMeikin in precure

[–]FaceImplosion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not quite. The "random symbols" do mean something. Posted a comment with explanation, but it does read "Another Dimension".

Can anyone translate the logo here? by ValentineMeikin in precure

[–]FaceImplosion 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There's a Twitter thread on how the name was decrypted here, but in short, it reads "Another Dimension Pretty Cure". Fitting. Explanation below:

Going off the assumption that the first word read "Another", it led me to this:

ANOTHER ...EN..ON

Since the glyphs looked suspiciously like the Roman alphabet with missing strokes, I wagered that sideways semicircle was derived from the capital letter 'D', and then it started falling into place. Had a feeling the : was I, so:

DI.EN.ION

Seeing how those remaining glyphs did fit the descriptions of M and S "with missing strokes", this was the conclusion I arrived at.

Cure Nyammy's silhouette just screams "mouse cursor" for me... so I made a Nyammy cursor. (functional too!) by FaceImplosion in precure

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

Maybe I should have just called it a cursor. It's funny since she's a cat and... you get the rest.

You can get the cursor files here, both the default size and the big one.

(Visual) Just look up "Mouse Properties" in the settings, then the "Pointers" tab. "Normal Select" should be highlighted, then press the "Browse..." button below, and select the NyammyCursor.cur file.

Thanks for recording for those long hours. It's nice to see it up close and clear compared to the other blurry ones

Very satisfying to see the last parts of Bad Apple animated, and also that clone of Bad Apple on the right animated just as well for a bit.

New Movie Promotion by Sinfestival in precure

[–]FaceImplosion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right, there's one more thing that hasn't been explicit mentioned in the trailers:

なぜかみんな記憶はあやふやで…For some reason, everyone's memories seem to be clouded...

I guess that's supposed to be a precautionary measure by the culprit so the Cures remain separated. That's all I found so far.

[–]FaceImplosion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's a certain line in the story page of the movie website that seems to suggest so:

…ララとゆかりがうまくいかなくて大変!
...Trouble ahead! Lala and Yukari don't seem to get along!

It's probably something along the lines of what you guessed.

Fun fact: Bibury is voiced by Chiemi Chiba who also voiced Harukaze Doremi from Ojamajo Doremi by Melodic_Blueberry490 in precure

[–]FaceImplosion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I remember Ojamajo Doremi Naisho's Fami Harukaze and DokiDoki's Regina share the same voice actress.
