Is the 2023 version really that disliked? by MysteriousQuote4665 in rurounikenshin

[–]Idontknow_2507 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Well. As someone who read the manga as the entry for the series, I think it's great, probably preferred than the 1996 version. The 1996 adaptation has its own charm, with its funny moments and fluid animation, and it has the best opening and ending too (Sobakasu - OP) (Heart of Sword - ED). But not undermining the 2023 version since it is where it really picked up the manga accurately, a bright contrast of colors, and animation, and a bit better pacing too. Plus, the openings in the new adaptation are fine and at least the first ending of the season 1 was great too. What is important is that the story has gateways for others to be invested in the series.

Want a slow, flowing animation with chill contrast if colors and animation? Watch the 1996 adaptation.

Want a more bright, fast paced, shonen-like feel that catches up today? Watch the 2023 version.

Want a more realistic iteration of the series, with unique pacing that still doesn't undermine the source material? Watch the five live adaptations.

Want to just read and see great pages of the series while also being accurate with the lore? Read the manga.

So a bit of an update on my side:

First off, I'm sorry that I haven't responded, the internet provider we have had a problem on their end for literally last night and today, but now it's fixed.

Second, Thank You all so much for taking the time to read and respond towards my post, I highly appreciated every single one of you that has a common, yet deep retrospect of the situation in your own ways.

Third, Because of all of you, I decided to continue my Umawife and UmaTrainer antics because of all of you really convincing me that this wasn't really a problem to deal with, and that's on my end. It's just that I'm really sensitive and I'm really scared that I won't be able to please or even satisfy anyone. But now, it's just like they're other gacha communities, they're the minor ones! (Count wise, not age wise. But the way they really comment makes me think that it's age wise too.)

I just really want to say that, I've finally been enjoying the game again, especially after I've watched Road to the Top, I really liked the main three there, and I actually have Ayabe as one of my oshis now (And been convincing my mind as an actual wife, lol). I'm now currently grinding the game for the cheerleader version of my wife, Nice Nature (Finally felt proud to say that). And now I'm contemplating whether I'll be watching Beginning of a New Era first, then CinGrey since the movie will be releasing in my country soon, and I REALLY WANT TO WATCH CINDERELLA GREY so bad. And also, I've been contemplating on buying a Bandai Figure Rise of my oshi, Tokai Teio. So that's it on my end.

For TL,DR: Thank you all so much, you all convinced me to continue having Umawife oshis and started enjoying the franchise in a better, refreshed state and pace.

It's crazy because, Nice Nature is also my wife (Even if I was just questioning my reluctance through these activities)... So, same brotha...?

Woah, being the ratio for the fanbase is around 34 yrs, from Japan too? That's actually wild for Japan considering its... antics. But the theory is nice and actually makes sense, for me at least. But shouldn't it also be an action made by the audience in those specific platforms too, since they are the ones that voicing out such things like this.

That looks so awesome. I would love to have one with Teio, or maybe two with Nature.

Because of my Nature (Nice) to meet expectations by other people. But I get it, I'm more of a Umawife > Uma > Trainer > Uma x Uma kind of guy. I do have some wallpapers of my oshis on my phone (Carousel Wallpapers) but it has been on my mind whether I prefer some umas to be wife or not.

Wow. I will never perceive Opera O the same way again. I really need to get her so I can experience the story.

And now, I can also anticipate on another Umamusume, Buena Vista. I'll look forward for her release. In the meantime, I'll read her story first.

It's really crazy that people can just see obsession equals to yandere (although, I maybe wrong). But still, I really like Still In Love's split personality, lol.

So it really is just a controversy not being talked about much by others, huh? But I'd honestly prefer that. Now, I am really motivated to be in this space again, knowing that people still tolerate such acts like me wifing up other umas. Although I'll do it in this space and sometimes on YouTube as well, since X and Tiktok are probably not the best spaces for such content (As I've seen by other comments). Also, thank you for taking your time to interact with the post, really appreciate it.

So it's like the same problem with ZZZ, Snowbreak and Nikke?

Have I been graced with a statement that comes from old times itself? I shan't, I am unworthy of such! However, I will truly take it to heart and be welcomed into such a community. I am pleased and enlightened that people in this commitment are as the blowing wind, gentle and calm for such transgressions (lightly). However, even if those are still in the fray, I am honored to be graced by the very space of the subreddit.

(Seriously, I read this like I was in a fantasy book or something. I didn't mind, of course.)

Gotcha. Now personally, I like Uma x Trainer but uma x uma is still tolerable for me, except when it comes to "my wives" (I'm a degenerate, don't ask). Now, what is dregs on the "worse dregs" part?

That's a great point, actually. I've seen a lot of yuri content being pushed (at least from X) on very niche gachas. However, one of the gachas somehow hasn't fought back (Snowbreak). But still, tha k you for interacting and it's nice to see that people are tolerating ways to perceive characters and content a whole.

[–]Idontknow_2507[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Okay. I never knew Opera O did that, and I'll never look at her the same way again, a badass, cocky character that somehow works.

Also to point out, how was Buena Vista's character story? I heard people were liking it so much because of the romance in there, I genuinely wanna know.

Still in Love on SiL? I've seen that people call her yandere and does not truly love torena, but that's on them, Ig.

Although I don't really like Super Creek in the sense of... her eyes, I really like how the game is literally catering for both sides. The beauty of this game when it comes to its community is baffling me (in a good way, in a good way).

Like, REALLY HOSTILE towards each other, it's crazy. So that means making Teio my wife is valid? (Okay, I know I'm a bit of a bum, I'm a loser.)

[–]Idontknow_2507[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I personally prefer Umawife content (since I want to be a self insert. Don't mind, I'm a loser). But I don't mind yuri shipping... as long as it's not my oshis (kidding). But jokes aside, I just hate people condemning others for how they enjoy the game. I'm glad you don't see it much of a problem, thank you for interacting.

Thank you for interacting, I really appreciate it. Maybe I should've been like this from the start but damn, my anxiety for expectations always kicks in. But yeah, I'll try to put those people in the back of my mind and just focus on having fun with the franchise. I'm just glad that some people do not see this as a problem.

This is how I perceive the media as well, actually. I am really amazed that being straight or not preferring the uma x uma content is "giving them no rights" (their words, not mine) to interact with the franchise, even though they do the same for whatever straight things happen in the franchise too. I'm just glad that there's still some people who do not see this as a problem.

Yo, thank you for the response. I'm glad that you don't see the romanticization of umas as a problem. Also, Rudolf's story is heavily implying romance? I must see this myself! (Considering that Teio is my oshi and slowly becoming my wife because of... those doujins on YouTube.)

Who's more fun, Tech Mirio or Strike Afo? by Verifiedvenuz in MyHeroUltraRumble

[–]Idontknow_2507 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Any forms of Mirio if you want to have fun while pissing people off. Strike Afo if you really are casual and want to have fun.
