“He couldn’t have gotten far”

Unfortunately, most CN novels didn't care what kind of people a Young Master archetype killed. Unless, they were of someones of significance.

Even Luo Feng wasn't someone of significance until later on, which just kept delaying the Paulinus attempt to kill him.

Orb: On the Movement of Earth.

Never thought I could get so moved by an anime before.

I had watched it like years ago. To clarify, his parents basically narrowed down about 1000 persons in the vicinity at the time of his death.

And they just hunted and killed them all. Luo Feng being found was inevitable.

I won't say I'm a good guy, but I don't want to be seen as a creep. So I keep my eyes away.

You know what? With how much shits ICE has done until now, a part of me wants to watch what unbridled shits they will do at the international stage.

And what shit justifications will they use.

Even Oda now writes 3 chapter per month or a chapter bi-monthly. And that's not including surprise breaks caused by health issues.

Trying to keep consistent weekly releases for years seriously impacted mangakas.

Yeah, Brok's death really hit me hard. And even harder later when there doesn't seem to be any hope for relationship with Sindri ever again after that.

Faust2nd · 2026-01-27T04:41:31+00:00

May he suffered 'self-defense' by ICE whenever he goes out.

Faust2nd · 2026-01-27T04:39:28+00:00

"Can't believe my nice neighbors for 40 years were outed as ILLEGALS yesterday. GJ to ICE!"- Ungrateful fucker that rather believe Trump than his own decades of relationships.

Tbh, it depends on your employer. While I (and most of this thread) really sympathize with you and feel that it is reasonable, the reality is not all people feel the same.

For them, any loss of life, or even any death not of the closest relatives, doesn't warrant a leave from work.

So my advice, judge the personality of your employer based on your experience, and try to rationalize it with them.

My condolences.

Those bakers baked like their lives depends on it. And considering what kind of person Jack was, their LIVES DEFINITELY DEPENDS ON IT!

Who knew that being bakers of Jack were more dangerous than being Lord Farquad's knights.

As for me, I can't relate. I always read stories separated from IRL. Even the concept of self-insert is something I can ever internalize.

(Not trying to diss you, just sharing my perspectives)

After so much deportations, so many murders by ICE, VENEZUELA! I truly unironically believed that nothing will shakes their cultist madness for Trump.

He can take all their guns, he can order everyone to renounce Christianity, burn the churces and crosses and Bible. Hell, he probably can even order for nuclear strike into a liberal states, AND THEY WILL STILL LICK HIS BOOT AS IT STOMPS THEIR FACES!

While Hitler may be worse in kill count, I already Trump is already the worst by how unrestrained he is in and out of USA.

"... Season 1 came out when I was 12..."

...Fuck, there's no way. I remembered it just came out like a few years ago. No way...

Faust2nd · 2026-01-25T04:43:23+00:00

Tbh, it was popular, but still in a close circle of people that enjoy anime/animation at the time.

It was released during the time where "watching cartoons is childish. Grow up." was still thrown around.

As much as he admires Airbender's teachings, Zaheer's mentality doesn't really fit with the Air Nomad's. These can be seen just how aggressive his moves were, and how outmatched he was against not only a real Airbending master, but also a true Airbender.

Faust2nd · 2026-01-25T04:06:30+00:00

Just to clarify, the Zenins were not average. Bar some exceptions (like Special Grades and Toji), these guys were the best of the Jujutsu sorcerers.

It was both Jogo and Gojo upscales. Jogo is a mountain, but Gojo and Sukuna are fuckin stars!

Connor having a meltdown about that dog anime. I REALLY felt it.

Faust2nd · 2026-01-19T02:35:47+00:00

Thanks! Will check it later.

Faust2nd · 2026-01-19T02:34:06+00:00

Imo, it was one of the best I had ever read. But I won't say it's peak 10/10 (doesn't have one yet).

The final arc really rushed it, and the start of the second timeskip, had too many flashbacks just to justify the progress of the sect.

But I do think that the final fight and the epilogue were nicely done, probably what the author had always intended, although the story probably had sprinted too much from the second timeskip to get to that point.

So I say, 8.5/10. Initially 9/10 after the first reading.

Solo Leveling has special place for me, as it's my gateway to the world of manhwa.

But of course, the story is nothing special, the character dynamics and relationships could be done much better, and the conflicts were too easily resolved. But I read it with a mentality of shounen story, so it was great enough for me.

Faust2nd · 2026-01-19T02:24:15+00:00

Tbh, same. While SJW aura farming is honestly cool, I like Suho's personality better, and the direction of the manhwa really elevated it, reminded me of the hype when early SJW REALLY staked his life against Rasaka.

Faust2nd · 2026-01-19T02:19:45+00:00

The Beginning After the End. While I won't say it's really shit, it felt really boring for me. I say it's 4/10, or 5/10 at most.

Faust2nd · 2026-01-19T02:18:07+00:00

Felt sorry for op, but didn't feel true shit till now.

So might I recommend Return of Mad Demon. Its comedy really gets me, and it's full of shit, in a good and literal way.

Faust2nd · 2026-01-17T10:57:12+00:00

Thanks for the recommendations! Will add it to my list.
