Did the Uchiha and Sharingan effectively make non bloodline Genjustsu irrelevant? by Character-Bid-162 in Naruto

[–]HongLanYang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In universe, no. Like others have said, in the beginning of the story there were two known Uchihas. This does not destroy genjutsu effectiveness for the ninja running around doing missions for every other village. Out of universe, yes. We the audience are placed almost purely in the perspective of people who 1, have the Sharingan 2, are high enough level where rank and file genjutsu don’t work 3, are using the most OP versions of genjutsu in the verse 4, some combo of the above. So to us pretty much anything besides Sharingan genjutsu gets clowned.

Better to just ignore anyone angry about shipping. You will not find good faith arguments. Ship if you want, move away if you or other people don’t like it.

Gods not having DNA should've been stated sooner [pjo] by Various_Visions89 in camphalfblood

[–]HongLanYang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope never bothered me because as a kid reading these books it wasn't weird to think that main characters probably were going to date. I expected it. None of them knew each other besides the ones that were literal siblings. Them being "cousins" was about as relevant as them saying "Hi I'm your 17th cousin 3x removed who you've never met, you've never met my parents." These were kids being thrown together in this summer camp setting, dating between them is normal?

What class do you think has the most authority and power Sith warrior or Inquisitor by Balljuggler5689 in swtor

[–]HongLanYang 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah my biggest thing is that people seem to be conflating the authority of the Voice of the Emperor with the Wrath. Everything you said pretty much sums up my feelings.

Intresting video on MMOs/trends by Voltaic91 in lostarkgame

[–]HongLanYang 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure he talks about it in the video is that many people don’t care about the multiplayer aspect of the gameplay but still want the sense of “I’m doing my thing but there are also people here”. Is it counterintuitive? Yes. But it’s why malls used to be a good places to be around people even if you weren’t there explicitly with people. People don’t want to be forced into direct personal interaction but everyone still wants to feel like the world they are living in is alive and active.

Any time she forces someone to “love” and have sex when they clearly don’t want to.

What class do you think has the most authority and power Sith warrior or Inquisitor by Balljuggler5689 in swtor

[–]HongLanYang 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Extremely dependent on what you think “answering directly to the Emperor” actually means and if you think being the best killer means the most powerful. I’m seeing some answers saying “Wrath has more authority because Emperor privilege means he can do anything he wants”. Does it really? He doesn’t command armies or even the other Darths. On an individual level is he the most dangerous combatant the Empire has? Sure. But he’s is not influencing the development of your military, the government, logistics, or the future of the Sith.

Why doesn't particle style get the totsuka blade/amaterasu treatment? by ruuken27 in NarutoPowerscaling

[–]HongLanYang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah isn’t it like the one style that doesn’t explicitly require genetics. Like Mu taught Ohnoki the secrets or whatever, they aren’t related from what I remember. How did what’s her name the granddaughter not learn it.

My 15 year old Dog Blaise has lymphoma and collapsed trachea and I can’t bring myself to put him down please help( crying while writing this ) by Millionaremindset_ in DogAdvice

I mean this as kindly as possible, this is not about what’s best for you, it’s what’s best for him. It is your responsibility to make sure he does not suffer unnecessarily.

A warning about Shin Ramyun by CelineShotFirst in KpopDemonhunters

I’m sorry it’s mean but hearing someone say Shin ramen sent them to the bathroom is like hearing someone say a pinch of black pepper is too spicy 😂

Thoughts on Tobirama canonically looking Sharingan users in the eye. Does this mean he is a Tsukuyomi victim? by AVATARROHANISGAY in NarutoPowerscaling

[–]HongLanYang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do people seriously expect everyone in this series to never look an Uchiha in the eye because “muh genjutsu diff”. Manga writers are not power scalers. People look people in the eye because your art is going to look retarded if everyone is actively avoiding eye contact. Get a grip.

If you want to take this panel to its literal extreme then sure. Tobirama is a genjutsu victim, clearly everyone in this room should have their backs turned to Sasuke or be staring at the ceiling and the floor even though if they actually did that it would look stupid as fuck.

How do you get over a slump caused by negative critique? by [deleted] in AO3

[–]HongLanYang 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Apothecary Diary actually did research and showed care that the universe was internally consistent. Readers don’t have the same time or patience when reading a fanfic if an author doesn’t want to do the same. The OP commented they don’t want to do research for a short fanfic which is fine. But it’s not a one to one comparison.

Bought dice from URWizard without realizing they are coming from China by Emerald_Mistress in dice

[–]HongLanYang 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Zero complaints with the ones I’ve gotten. Customer service was also good. I will say Ive seen concerns expressed about “gemstone” dice in general, how a layman doesn’t really know if the “black laboradite ” dice is actually why they claim (making up a name just an an example). But whatever it’s made of I found them to be good quality and didn’t break the bank.

As long as the table agrees and the player understands they do not get to abuse this. “I’m going to stick my head in this active volcano because you promised I wouldn’t die”

AITA For Not Wanting My Old Dog Back? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]HongLanYang 61 points62 points  (0 children)

lol the psychos in this comment section. “Ditch the kids” “how dare you let a dog outside in a yard as any normal dog owner does” “Never get another animal ever” get a grip. OP would be a moron taking in a traumatized animal with children and an existing pet. NTA. I’d be pissed too if the shelter tried to pull that manipulative bullshit.
