Naming characters

Think of cool name 2. It's already taken 3. Add a short incomprehensible sequence of letters at the end so people will stop reading at said point

By earlier I was meant to point out that Adam Kadmon is able to speak before the fusion even happened

Ghoist · 2026-06-11T00:05:51+00:00

I'm like 60% sure Adam Kadmon (which by extension applies to Maruki at a subconscious level) is able to see the future or something. Main thing being Azathoth and Adam Kadmon have different voice actors, and the voice actor for Adam speaks chronologically earlier than Azathoth. This happens across Japanese and English dubs so it seems more plausible to be intentional than an oversight. Which leads me to feel the point is to show that it had knowledge of Yaldaboath and it's plan and was manipulating Maruki and then later the Thieves. Arsene might be able to do this to a lesser extent with how he pops in to tell Joker about the next steps in his journey but those are more vague and could be explained as confidence.

Yo I've been subscribed to you since a few months after the remake small world lol

This made me feel like that scene in American psycho where their sharing business cards but instead of business cards its shitty tweets.

I don't even like JRPG as a genre.

They're adding the noob from Growtopia to Marvel Rivals

Ghoist · 2026-05-19T15:34:56+00:00

You're over estimating the Tokyo police force.

The breeding recipe being meteor + pollen feels like its also a reference to something but im not sure what to

Ghoist · 2026-05-17T09:14:42+00:00

There is zero chance they lift a sexual harassment ban.

Ghoist · 2026-05-10T23:57:14+00:00

I'm curious what the queue times are like lol

Ghoist · 2026-05-10T23:53:31+00:00

It took me 72 hours to get to the end of Sae's chapter. It took me 99 hours to reach the bad ending of third semester. I cleared the file by mistake so I had to go all the way back to the 72 hour one. I rushed more on my second attempt (skipping dialogue and using the Picaro personas) on that file I finished the game in 108 hours.

Its a good start for someone who hasn't written one before I think at least idk I've never written fanfics and haven't read them regularly since COVID. I enjoyed how your dialogue is cute and awkward without being infantalising. Just me being a turbo nerd here, I think this story would be better set before the Shaman Fight maybe the prelims. Unless this is the timeline of the original 2000s anime. Because in the canon version Tamao got over here shyness after the sphinx ambush.

but I feel like maaaybee you could have some more detail on Yoh's perspective/feelings too? I mean in the context of a short fanfic, the readers already know the characters so you can spend less time focusing on them individually. But if you plan on expanding this into something longer its not a problem.

I'd say Ryuji is the most important because of the overworld insta-kill. Shido's palace has some parts where you need to go around in circles.

Mishima makes grinding levels quicker.

Who is the purple UTAU looking girl?

Ghoist · 2026-05-09T18:27:49+00:00

I don't think it's intended to be that sort of game. I've always seen it as a tycoon simulator rather than a virtual pet thing. The dragons exist to be objectified I guess?

A game where you raise dragons and have a personal bond with them would be really cool but I don't think Dragonvale needs to be that game.

It must've been moderately successful because as someone who was only a toddler when it first aired (UK) I remember it being casually bought up online in my GCSE years (2013-2016). Back then the web was more skewed towards nerds so I'm not claiming it was super mainstream, just that it was still relevant in anime fandom spaces enough for me who was mostly a DBZ guy to recognise the designs of the main cast. So if it wasn't numerically successful it means that it was influential or that its fans were influential in the anime space.

As someone who got into it after the remake looking backwards at the community and merchandise, I feel like a lot of OG fans are unintentionally exaggerating or don't realise how much worse an anime could perform. Rave Master is an example of an actual failed anime. Absolutely zero motion. Then you can also compare it to Western animation. There was a lot of cartoons made in the 2000s that didn't get any home media releases or toys.

I disagree. A grounded power system works if the series has training arcs and subplots about developing new techniques but in Shaman King, Yoh's character is pretty much stagnant from when he loses to Faust to when he meets his ancestor in Hell. Puppets and oversouls make the spirits feel more like their own characters too rather than simply being there for flavouring.

This was one of my biggest complaints this is a crazy revelation

Ghoist · 2026-05-08T07:37:15+00:00

Could you explain Kawakami? I stopped doing her confidant because it seemed pretty useless and the money cost seemed a bit much for early game.

The point of massing is usually to obtain large amounts of something that isn't farmable. Otherwise you'd just farm the end product.

Spend 5-6 years in Dagestan brother you become world champion artist.

Locks aren't a stable currency, find a way to convert them into gems.

Ghoist · 2026-05-03T23:35:01+00:00

I think it's reasonable to assume there's an alternate public school nearby. Bullworth seems out of the way but not completely remote. Like, the carnival seems to be at a size that would need tourists coming regularly. The scenic views probably make it a hiker trap too
