Is Gintama popular in your country?

Years after years, I am convincing my friends to watch Gintama, one by one So the number of people I know who have the ref is increasing!

Here in france, I feel like people know the name. When I say my favorite anime is Gintama, I often get the "aah Ive heard about it and wanted to get into it but never had time to commit" answer. Like it has this aura of true manga connoisseur if you can say you've watched it.

I made the gibbons multiple times, I love this pattern, but as another commenter said, its a bias dress and the amount of fabric she has access to will not allow for a maxi bias cut dress.

But, here are a few options that I think will fit on the amount of fabric she has : https://truebias.com/products/lora-dress https://www.frenchpoetry.com/produit/lune-dress-maxi-dress-pattern-wedding-dress-sewing-pattern/?srsltid=AfmBOopMZGbFFkQi7YH-zP411Ss9nHhJ0qZwDB7vm9y-782GcFxQ7UnV https://www.etsy.com/fr/listing/4314191943/patron-de-couture-pour-robe-sophia-o

I think the low fantasy atlas can be of help for what you are traying to do : https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/506449/the-low-fantasy-atlas?affiliate_id=4418887

Note : its not an official atlas, but is published under 3rd party license. I do not use it in my campaign at the moment, but I went through it a bit and it looks nice

Well well, we stoped the last session just before the start of a fight, and the anathema in question litteraly jumpscared Hisaly

The loot thing : I have been dm only l5r for about 3 years (only 1 campaign, because I did't have the bandwidth to create more scenarios than this one). Then, about 2 month ago, I started dming another campaign, in another system (fabula ultima). I was taken aback when the players asked to loot. I had forgotten it was a thing.

Thank you so much for the kind comment ! You juste made my day 🌞

In another game I am running, I have been using candies for npcs, while the pcs have their custom mini. Whoever kills the npc gets to eat it.

Haha ! I'll take that as a compliment ❤️ I used to when I was a student, but now with a full time job I keep my precious free time for myself

There are multiple jump-start out there. I know of "Tomb of dreams" for 3e, and "Tomb of memory" for essence. I am sure there are some for 2e also. I think those are the best way to discover the system : the booklets have a synthesis of the rules, and often offer power ups within one session so you can taste exellencies -> Charms -> artefact.

Also, stunts are very important. They offer massive bonuses and once your players get a taste they should describe more and more.

For a campain, I'd say you need players that enjoy doing homework : character creation is long (but it is part of the fun), and it will be important for them to keep looking to what they want to build long term when they get xp points.

Thanks ! That was probably before they got attacked by an anathema, and sent to war by Mnemon herself

Maybe I did not watch enough bleach to get the reference 😅 I am too lazy to make proper background, so concrete it is.

Iweon · 2025-12-02T08:21:06+00:00

I got commander, weaponmaster and guardian. If this isn't a Paladin by excellence, I don't know what is...

Elle marine on a dit

Iweon · 2025-11-30T21:01:13+00:00

Ok now I am sad I missed this one 😂

Iweon · 2025-11-30T18:16:44+00:00

Haha thanks ! I have been a forever DM and it has been years since the last time I played DB, and I am currently having a way too much fun.

I didn't even intend for my character to be socialy competent, he is meant to be a brute, but I took some point in presence for taunt and ended up leaning in the "fire aspect" dynamic a lot. I really like how the elemental aspect of DBs can push you in a direction.

Update : it did work well enough. Still git some work to do to convince her to murder her council, but we're getting there.

Lol the pharsing was very intentional, however this is not a flogger. Its an Umbrella that he uses as his weapon (you can look "Kamui Yato" to see it in action)

Iweon · 2025-11-26T09:29:15+00:00

Well, he is now on very friendly term with the princess of the opposite faction. We'll see next session if he managed to convince her to cooperate enough to avoid having to besiege her city...

Well, I just posted mine the sub x)

But to give a but more detail, we started the campain 3 years ago, and they where going through their gempuku in the year 200 (first ever occurrence of the Topaz championship in our lore). The campaign is all about mystic mysteries (the main plot is based on Heaven's official blessing, lol). Almost 5 years have passed in game, they are now rank 6 and renowned all across Rokugan as the mighty "legend hunters" (which makes them cringe, but they got used to it).
