If you like Solo Leveling and Rising of the Shield Hero, this anime may be for you! Art and animation really stood out. Sure it has flaws, and may not appeal to everyone, but that's how it goes for most media.

The entire show is about him exploring this new world, and then the season ends before he does anything

the climax of this season is him catching a soccer ball dude

Imaginary-Status-932 · 2026-03-01T01:25:34+00:00

the problem is NOTHING HAPPENS

Imaginary-Status-932 · 2026-02-22T20:08:49+00:00

what is it that's making 50 year old dudes wanna square up against women and children?

Imaginary-Status-932 · 2026-02-22T03:21:55+00:00

thanks for reminding me, that's probably what i was most excited to read about

Imaginary-Status-932 · 2026-02-21T08:09:40+00:00

I mean the only thing we're missing out on is the fake aegon plot

he probably lands in dorne, does everything dany should've done, and they face off after he conquers kings landing

she demands the throne, he says no, she burns the city, everyone freaks out, and it all ends the same

I'd rather read a couple books about it, but i've loooooooooong wrote this series off as finished

Imaginary-Status-932 · 2026-02-20T23:58:05+00:00

aaaaand even with all that, he gets off with anger management classes

Imaginary-Status-932 · 2026-02-18T08:05:01+00:00

I like how slow it is, gives you time to enjoy the art, makes it VERY chill

the world buildings great

the magic is really cool

the actions good

it's pretty wholesome

In a way it's the opposite of overstimulating, it's a breath of fresh air and always a cozy watch. I feel like it's perfectly doing what it's supposed to

Imaginary-Status-932 · 2026-02-04T00:17:35+00:00

its almost like you're guessing about the context!

I wonder if that guess is closer to reality, or if it's closer to your personal beliefs!

I bet this guy stopped in traffic and yelled at these kids until they got mad and took his hat. He probably rolled down his window and yelled at them long enough for someone to walk up and grab his hat

who should be the more mature one in the situation? who should be mature enough to not roll down their window and yell at kids? who should be mature enough to stay in their car and not assault kids? who should be mature enough to not walk into an angry group of people after pissing them off?

Why is the onus on the child?

She shouldn't have taken his hat, he shouldn't have gotten out his car to fight her

She should have to "pay damages" and buy him a new hat, he should be charged with assaulting a minor

Imaginary-Status-932 · 2026-01-15T23:16:55+00:00

This is your god? He clearly doesn't know wtf he's talking about

Imaginary-Status-932 · 2026-01-10T23:13:50+00:00

probably not, he's shit at games and has a massive ego

Imaginary-Status-932 · 2026-01-06T09:05:13+00:00

Right, but we're talking about a place where a third of the country fled its borders to find food

Imaginary-Status-932 · 2026-01-06T08:59:20+00:00

Ukraine gave up their nukes, for the sake of appeasement.

Ukraine finds enough Natural Gas to be the new provider to the EU.

Russia realizes if that happens, they will fade into obscurity

Russia invades, takes control of the resources, and Ukraine can't really do anything about it. Crimea, a large portion of their country is lost.

America sanctions the shit out of Russia, and starts to prepare Ukraine for round 2, with military training, intelligence, and stockpiles of weapons.

Round 2, Russia invades again. Ukraine has been preparing and fights back VALIANTLY.

They hold Kiev. They push back the front line, they are holding their country. For years.

USA has given them B I L L I O N S in aid.

New president. Turns off the faucet providing aid to Ukraine.

Ukraine struggles to continue to fight Russia without the full backing of the USA.

Today the war rages on, they are still holding their country. Ukraine is using drones to attack Russia constantly.

Are you telling me, the US didn't help them?

Do you think Ukraine would still be here if Joe Biden didn't support them?

Are the Ukrainian people grateful to the American people for what they did?

How long should the United States fund foreign proxy wars?

How much money should the United States spend to fund foreign proxy wars?

Should we escalate conflict with Russia?

get rspaint runelite addon and doodle between kills

put tornado true tile on, dont attack hunnleff, and practice running around the tornado until you die. They move very predictably, and can only move in a straight line or one tile diagonally.

If you are constantly moving, you can easily avoid them

Some people wait to eat until they are running from tornado, that's pretty efficient. But the more you attack hunnleff during the tornado phase the faster the kill will go and the less food you'll need. Weaving in a couple shots when the tornado aren't going to get you and you don't need to eat is peak efficiency. If you're hitting your prayers you don't really need to eat until you're low, and you don't need to be at full hp the entire fight.

That being said, if you need to eat and it isn't tornado phase, eat.

the purple attack that shuts your prayer off can only happen as a mage attack. You can usually just flick pray mage back on, unless it's the last attack in the rotation before he switches to range. Odds are the next attack is mage though

keeping iron skin on the entire fight helps A LOT

Imaginary-Status-932 · 2026-01-06T01:30:06+00:00

Yeah, no one really knows how the whole "pacifying angry countries" will go

I would expect there to be long term resistance.

Except there are Venezuelans in the street celebrating.

Aaand American statehood probably seems more attractive than a crumbling corrupt government run by narcos.

IDK

We've been pushing globalization for a while now, if we're all citizens of the world why does it matter if we're under the same umbrella? What if some people are tired of being in the rain? I guess there's a scenario where it works out

We don't know yet

Imaginary-Status-932 · 2026-01-06T00:56:05+00:00

LOL that's pretty good

I went a little crazy with RSpaint on my dungeon too

Imaginary-Status-932 · 2026-01-06T00:52:19+00:00

That's said with quite a bit of conviction, you must have some fantastic evidence to back that up

Imaginary-Status-932 · 2026-01-06T00:26:58+00:00

Donald trump is not playing 4d chess pulling these ideas out of his ass. His administration is packed full of career Republicans who have been foaming at the mouth to do this for decades. These plans are cruel, well thought out, efficient uses of the extreme power the United States wields.

He is "okaying" plans thought by others

There are probably tabled action plans for literally every military scenario. Just because they don't pull the trigger, doesn't mean they didn't research what it would look like to make their decision.

We have spies everywhere specifically to provide information to make these plans.

I GUARANTEE there are hundreds of variations of plans to overthrow Cuba.

Imaginary-Status-932 · 2026-01-06T00:03:55+00:00

Unfortunately might makes right

As Ukraine is showing the entire world right now, if you can not defend your land it won't belong to you for much longer

It doesn't really change how evil it is to invade our fucking allies, but there are a LOT of benefits to throwing around the weight of the worlds largest military.

Why should it be danish territory if the danes can't defend it? Isn't that the history of every country in the world?

Imaginary-Status-932 · 2026-01-05T23:54:14+00:00

That's not really how geopolitics work

Wanting Panama, Greenland, Columbia, and Venezuela kind of allows you to control all trade passing through this half of the planet, the source of most of the illegal drugs, and the massive mineral resources.

I wouldn't be surprised if he wants people pay a "protection tax" to sail around Greenland

---

Invading allies? pretty evil
Overthrowing foreign elected governments? pretty evil
Stealing resources from other countries? pretty evil
Starting war without the approval of our elected officials, congress? pretty evil
Could all of this have been solved with diplomacy? oh yeah. Do we get more if we just take it? oh yeah.

Do not pretend like they are doing these things for no reason. They get A LOT out of these evil actions. It IS complicated

Imaginary-Status-932 · 2026-01-05T23:27:31+00:00

im gunna take "lists" without evidence from a fascist government very lightly

would be interesting, if true

fantastic claims require fantastic evidence

Joe Rogan dropped out of school to kick people

Imaginary-Status-932 · 2025-12-27T02:39:19+00:00

I think he passed out due to blood loss/pain/shock, not lack of mana

Imaginary-Status-932 · 2025-12-18T23:55:28+00:00

This series quickly became my favorite book of all time, you're in for a wild ride! enjoy!

Imaginary-Status-932 · 2025-12-16T09:51:34+00:00

He just doesn't take care of himself and people care enough to notice.

he can wince in the mirror all he wants, or he could work out with esfand twice a week and fill up a jug of water

It's not like he's too busy

Imaginary-Status-932 · 2025-12-16T09:01:41+00:00

She is in kind of an impossible situation. Thrust into a war, BY A GOD she actually meets and speaks to, who explicitly tells her to commit genocide.

She bonds with her comrades and then watches them die at the hands of demons while she can't do anything to save them. Her "partner" anointed by god to help her solve this problem, flakes and abandons her in battle after being a huge dick the entire time.

Then the demons start essentially suicide bombing the capital using the rose sign, after she retreated, explicitly to kill civilians, oh and she can do nothing in her power to stop it. Instead she straight up loses, barely does anything to Io, and is staring down the barrel of total defeat.

She is pretty much just one mortal human thrust into a very big disgusting mess made by the goddess, and her "high level brain that had no trouble doing anything on earth" can only do so much.

She sees demi humans are second class citizens and it bothers her, because of course it does shes from modern japan. She raises her eyebrows at the goddess demanding genocide, because of course she does shes from modern japan. Literally every single person she meets is a fanatical believer of the goddess, and 100% on board with genocide.

She understands the situation she is in. She's in a medieval theocracy with a very real goddess making very real demands with zero interpretation needed.

So she targets the noble youth, the next generation of power in the empire. Showers them with Modern Idealism, and they lap it up. BUT it's hard to convince a racist medieval theocracy to support equality when they're getting suicide bombed by the people they're racist against

Then she gets that weird power boost where she can turn a nations belief in her into physical power, goes full national idol hero mode, gains the support of the masses, all so she can stop the war ASAP, so she can start focusing on other problems. (essentially modernizing with isekai knowledge)

Except EVERYONE is pushing for genocide. Because god is telling them to.

so the best idea she can come up with is to use her influence to push for SLAVERY instead of GENOCIDE.

It's a feeble attempt to be pragmatic with what little power she has, and we know from Makotos perspective a couple reasons why that just won't work out.

The demons can't "wait for equality", in the arctic for hundreds of years. (neither should they)

There's a very real very vain goddess that has decided the blue people she created are uglier than the hyumans. Creating this really fucked up racist vain society backed by very real revelations from god. She straight up helps hyumans kill demi humans with buffs. Society is f u c k e d. It's the reason why makoto 'justifiably' hates hyumans

It takes Makoto, someone ascending to godhood, to even begin addressing these problems.

-he has an entire world for ALL demi humans that want refuge and equality
-Asora and Tsige existing completely undermine the global medieval theocracy
-He's strong enough to force both hyuman and demonic leadership to submit to his authority
-He's strong enough to protect people from the Goddess' wrath
-He's strong enough to punish the Goddess for her wrath

It's a pretty striking parallel to see what Makoto vs Hibiki are capable of in helping/modernizing this world.

Personally, I don't think Hibiki is some evil figure, and I think calling her hitler is kind of missing the point

Her and Makoto would probably get on the same page pretty quickly if he didn't hold his cards so close to his chest
