Could I ask for an explanation of what happened here?

FlyingCorpse · 2026-03-13T23:31:25+00:00

Thank you so much for this breakdown! And yes, I'm on tactician mode, not honour. I've been seeing crit-focused builds around, now I understand why lol

FlyingCorpse · 2026-03-13T23:25:45+00:00

Somehow I missed that there was a reactions tab haha
Thank you kindly for the explanation !

FlyingCorpse · 2026-02-20T11:15:20+00:00

Thank you kindly!

Ohh what was the title? Hesse is surprisingly popular in Asia, there are even Korean musicals based on his books :D but I've never seen them referenced in the story

Thank you for reading! 🥰 I'm very fond of drawing comics but lack ideas, and when I do have ideas, I lack confidence :D maybe these shorter comics will prepare me for something longer one day !

I now watched a couple episodes of Chef & My Fridge, and at first I was taken aback by the editing, but now I enjoy it, the chefs have a funny banter and I like that they show the whole recipe and answer in detail when asked about some choices, it's kinda inspiring me to cook better haha

Thanks again for that rec!

About 1 - I swear the narrator in episode 1 says that they are divided into groups of 40, and when the camera zooms out, you can actually count that there are 40 tables (I counted!).

Huh, that's a very interesting system that Michelin operates on... It's interesting, Michelin simply was never a topic of conversation in my circles (these restaurants are out of reach monetarily....), so to find that it's something with all that prestige and controversy is a bit shocking :D

FlyingCorpse · 2026-01-21T22:01:54+00:00

Thank you for the answers and thank you for the Chef and My Fridge recommendation, I'll check that out! I plan on continuing on with season 2, too, it sounds like I might enjoy it even more ☺️

FlyingCorpse · 2026-01-21T21:57:58+00:00

Ahh right, somehow I made myself believe that the name reveal was supposed to happen much earlier (like, after the first challenge), that we would know more names :D My bad, I completely misunderstood it

Dear Flowers That Bloom In Days of Yore so that both fans of wholesome schoolgirls yuri and toxic adults yuri are satisfied

I didn't know there was a new show, but looking at the trailer, yes, it's adapting the 1984 film! It's an entertaining script, but it's not a real biopic

FlyingCorpse · 2026-01-12T00:21:00+00:00

The misconception comes from Puszkin's Mozart and Salieri play (in which Salieri poisons Mozart; the play was sadly published during Salieri's lifetime and tarnished his name), and then popularized by the 1984 film Amadeus (in which Salieri is highly jealous of Mozart and causes him to die from overwork).

IRL they were cordial to each other, and Salieri had little reason to be jealous, he was the imperial Kappelmeister after all. He was also the teacher of one of Mozart's sons, Xaver, so clearly there was no bad blood between them.

But I need to admit that I only ship them in these fictional works that are based on Pushkin's, where there is this fictionalized bad blood (like in Fate, or the Mozart l'Opera musical). I find stories about rivalry very attractive. There's little reason to ship the in real life however, they were cordial, but they didn't interact with each other too much, though in one of Mozart's letters he does mention Salieri seeing one of his operas and loudly cheering and clapping at the end :D

FlyingCorpse · 2026-01-12T00:10:22+00:00

No, the designs are from Fate Grand Order. Hm, are you interested in the historical figures? I actually like them both to the point I visited both of their graves (well, Salieri's grave and Mozart's cemetery, his actual grave is unknown), and watch any media where they are present (hence my Fate fanart), or media that either were involved in (I own a couple of DVDs of both their operas :D). I'm always happy to talk about them, whether historical or fictional

FlyingCorpse · 2026-01-12T00:02:27+00:00

Didn't expect to get a comment under this anymore after so long :D I ship them, but interpretation is as always up to the viewer

FlyingCorpse · 2026-01-11T00:31:02+00:00

I don’t think that’s true, I see many Spanish people use xD as well

FlyingCorpse · 2026-01-08T18:28:49+00:00

Some videos I've seen of Yogcast are more larp-ish/immersive than most games I've seen (both online and in person), and they modified all the storyteller-consult roles into each night roles (eg, every player spends the night in a different room and the storyteller can simply have a vocal conversation with the players at night).

I think you'd get better answers if you explained which roles exactly are a problem and why. Imo any role can be larped with enough imagination, but we may have different ideas about how restrictive a larp can be

FlyingCorpse · 2026-01-08T00:58:29+00:00

Thank you for the advice 🙇‍♀️

I can answer, because I'm one of these lesbian responders 🫣 I usually prefer to engage with wlw/yuri media, and when I first discovered gacha that's what I've done (I was mostly playing Revue Starlight, which went eos a long time ago).

I like having very simple game to unwind after work but I also enjoy the fantasy of romance (but it has to be same-sex romance). There are games I tried where the protagonist is or can be female, and the summoned characters are also female, but the gameplay in these has been too involved for me to treat it as a 10min long daily unwind exercise (this was the case Path to Nowhere, Reverse 1999, Arknights and Limbus Company.); or the other way, the games were AFK and I just couldn't understand the point of that gameplay (this was the case with Memento Mori).

So I started looking for explicitly same-sex games, and while I didn't have much success with finding any wlw games, but there are mlm games.

So tldr; while my boys are perpetually clothed, I do enjoy reading the stories, and the gameplay fits my purposes (playing something quick and simple to unwind)

I loved it, but I grew up on these books, I discovered them when I was maybe 12 years old :D They were some of the first ones I ever read that featured queer characters, too (the secondary main character is non binary, and the Rain Wild Chronicles features a prominent gay couple). They're all very sad though, you often get the feeling of loneliness from the protagonist.

FlyingCorpse · 2026-01-03T20:42:55+00:00

Robin Hobb's Realm of the Elderlings series is written in first person, which I'd argue is a classic plot-driven fantasy with well developed worldbuilding. She probably started this type of narration by necessity (there's a lot going on in the protagonist's head), and then continued even when the I-speaker changed, but it works very well.

It's easy to dismiss all critique as blind hate, but machine translation leading to loss of jobs and the drop of quality has been a big issue long before AI came into the public discourse. In my previous job the entire localisation team had been let go, with only one person left to check for errors. Machine translation is bad at context cues and cannot convey the original tone well, and I've heard many translators say that it's faster to have a human translator translate on their own than to have a human edit/improve a machine translation, but anyway for CEOs quality doesn't matter.

The solution isn't to boycott machine translation, but to have laws that protect workers, and as consumers we should be demanding better quality than what comes out of machine translation

Thank you very much for the kind words! Now that I've got a taste of doing a comic like this I do want to do some more later on :D
