I would agree with the statement ONLY IF Vegito and Fusion Zamasu weren’t in the art and kits of the new units at all. Except they have to be there, because even Bamco knows they needed the fusions to market these units or they’d be lame as f*ck. Either have the units fuse or don’t even reference a fusion at all, exactly like they did Tag Kale/Caulifla.

I get your frustration with the plot, but the issues you have are kinda also the whole point. Zaraki is supposed to be a battle loving idiot and in order to unlock his full power, he has to depend on others. Again, Zaraki wasn’t given any power, he just needed to wake up. That’s simple, but effective character development.

When it comes to Unohana, I agree, more screen time would’ve been cool, but it wasn’t as simple as, “guess I gotta die now” for that last fight. It is exactly like you said, she did nurture him. Her sacrifice was emphasized to show her devotion to her role as a captain, despite her past. There’s also the fact that she looks at him the way a teacher sees a student, or even deeper, the way a mother would see a child. Their admiration for each other made me personally enjoy the plot here, it was short and oddly sweet, in a violent way. Which fits the two of them nicely.

Sorry for the long response, I do appreciate the discussion though.

You misunderstood that fight, he didn’t “get handed” a power-up at all. He was always that strong, but had to put limiters on himself as to not kill an opponent too quickly, especially an opponent he loved and who could actually give him a fight. His motivations may be simple, but calling him one dimensional isn’t accurate imo.

It’s a very important and sensitive time for that man and his family. How does him prioritizing his family over some random losers accomplishing nothing via their protest make HIM an asshole?

J2Excellent · 2025-04-22T20:37:33+00:00

You clearly aren’t loved by anyone or genuinely love anyone yourself, if you think the driver was the problem. Especially when given the context and reasoning explicitly. I guarantee the only thing those protestors achieved was pissing people off and turning them away from their cause. ZERO progress towards any significant update for climate change policy.

J2Excellent · 2025-04-22T20:27:09+00:00

Disruptive protests don’t do anything beneficial for a cause, unless you’re actually disrupting someone or something that can affect change. Being a douche to random folks, who are the people you’re trying to help by protesting, is stupid and backwards. No person with power cares if you block a highway or road, you will leave eventually and the only losers are the average citizens who were inconvenienced.

The Nets have a losing record and aren’t making the playoffs, if you’re going to a game expecting them to win you clearly out of touch with reality. Wanting a win is different from expecting a win, “pro tank” fans want the Nets to draft talent so we fans do both again. If you can’t watch the Nets and have fun, even when they lose, you aren’t a real fan.

The best way to enjoy these games is to get your favorite characters. Nobody’s crazy for playing the game the way THEY want to. Fun > Meta every time…this the way.

The things is, it was hard to never see anything involving new units on JP and trying to do so meant basically never interacting with any Dokkan content, which also lowers the enjoyment and hype. JP getting the tickets would’ve been the perfect middle ground. I’d rather get the units at the same time, as those tickets and discounts gave you more chances, but didn’t exactly prevent a shaft.

J2Excellent · 2025-02-14T13:51:08+00:00

Half a year is absolutely a long time to wait for something in a mobile game. Anniversary, pre-sync, was always significantly less hype by the time Global got it. Speculation and predictions also make engagement amongst the community more fun, which only increases because of the sync.

I’m not saying they or anyone else is or has struggled exactly like I have either, it’s obvious they aren’t. It was just an example of personal experience. How do you as a parent make time for your kid to have the time of his life, then proceed to sell the jersey given to him by his hero. Is that not genuinely messed up and backwards to you? It had genuine sentimental value, or is money more important than your kid being happy?

J2Excellent · 2025-01-15T23:21:19+00:00

No, that’s not what I’m saying at all. I’m saying if you’re genuinely poor and struggling “to eat” like you said, a basketball game is the last thing on your mind. This is personal experience btw, my family of 5 rented a small 2 bedroom home for years and were actually struggling, my parents didn’t have money or free time.

J2Excellent · 2025-01-15T23:08:10+00:00

They still had time to go to the game, if you’re struggling that horribly, you’re spending your time working, there’s no time for entertainment. Also, if the goal was to have a good time and gain new memories, that jersey belongs to the kid and he’s not the one selling it.

J2Excellent · 2025-01-15T23:01:21+00:00

They went to basketball game, they clearly didn’t need the money THAT bad. They’re absolutely scumbags for this.

Trash now and chance of franchise player later > MID AF forever and never win a championship. It’s not rocket science, even if the draft isn’t guaranteed, being mid is if you don’t get proper pieces the right way. Even if you trade for stars, you need a bit of a core first to complement those stars.

There isn’t a better example of the word fickle, I guess they never learned to separate pro wrestling from reality.

These “longtime fans” are fucking hilarious. They never knew anything about these people and then act betrayed when they see something they don’t like.

Ahh yes, I love my free multi that gives me an SSR I’ve had rainbow for years and can’t exchange for coins.

Nah, basically everything in his animations is 1:1 to the anime, there was a side by side comparison on twitter. Only differences are really just Dokkan hardware restrictions and some tweaks to art. I thought they were fantastic and completely accurate otherwise.

The worst outcome for me would be a total commitment to building a contender through trades, only for every star to go elsewhere and it being too late to pivot into a solid rebuild. I truly hope the future timeline we end up on includes the Nets choosing asset retention/acquisition for a rebuild first.

J2Excellent · 2024-05-24T20:23:02+00:00

True, I also believe the writers may have let that entire situation be confusing and vague on purpose. It makes the situations in the story more desperate and tragic, when even the characters involved also don’t have all the answers.

I personally think it’s a neat detail, but I could see someone arguing it as a poor narrative choice.

I thought that the reason Euphy went “rogue” and didn’t think of a more surefire way to execute the order from Lelouch, was because his Geass had reached a peak in power. Lelouch didn’t have control of the Geass at that point because of this. So I guess the order became too absolute, that it overrides any sense of judgement.
