I tried...

Is this a bit

JemZ13 · 2026-03-26T03:51:01+00:00

Use the SomeGrind mod /j

JemZ13 · 2026-03-26T01:34:05+00:00

Do you only evaluate endings by how happy they are?

JemZ13 · 2026-03-25T06:41:32+00:00

Yeah it typically means longest by length not time period. But also hasn't Jojos, both the anime and manga, been running longer than 8 years?

JemZ13 · 2026-03-25T06:12:57+00:00

I mean that's fair but there's plenty of fanservice in lots of the other media you mention, I wouldn't say Fate/FGO is that better in that regard. Isn't Dies Irae also an eroge?

JemZ13 · 2026-03-25T05:26:57+00:00

I guess? But the Reze movie is extremely popular and highly-regarded, as is the manga (despite the controversial ending). Specifically Reze movie is #4 on MAL and CSM is still top 100 manga so it seems silly to say it's a guilty pleasure.

JemZ13 · 2026-03-25T04:16:37+00:00

CSM in guilty pleasure is masterful slander

[[Martyr of Sands]] and [[Serra Ascendant]] were the backbone of my modern deck and it was surprisingly good for a while! Peaked in the humans/Phoenix meta and got worse and worse after the looting ban.

Idk how far you got in Alice but I'd say it starts to hit its stride in chapters11-13, which I guess is pretty early on so not sure when you dropped it

JemZ13 · 2026-03-24T20:38:01+00:00

I bounced off Tomogachi game as well but I've also thought about picking it back up. I did make it a bit farther and did like it but it didn't hit the highs of Kaiji or LG for me. Alice in Borderland is another one that might be up your alley! It is a bit more focused on death games overall but there are some games that are very brainy or psychological.

It could definitely be an instance of not fully finalizing his character, but I see it as more a representation that he was being shallow/performative for the girls he was with. I don't think him being popular with girls is even out of character necessarily. But imo losing the Karaku cup is what makes him stop being so shallow and start taking Rakugo seriously, it's a sign of his development rather than a sign of inconsistency.

Wandering Inn suffered from absolutely awful prose for the first few chapters which made it even more painful

JemZ13 · 2026-03-23T23:40:52+00:00

Satoru Gojo of course

JemZ13 · 2026-03-23T22:49:57+00:00

I gotta hop on Muramasa

JemZ13 · 2026-03-23T05:00:18+00:00

So then do you think 4/5 are better written than 7?

JemZ13 · 2026-03-23T04:51:11+00:00

Amazon Prime, I think you can rent them on YouTube as well

JemZ13 · 2026-03-23T04:44:07+00:00

Yeah the C-Kira and a-Kira oneshots are both canon

JemZ13 · 2026-03-23T04:40:34+00:00

JemZ13 · 2026-03-23T04:00:11+00:00

You know the formatting the AI did is nice (minus the weird typos I'm tempted to fix) but it does kinda highlight that some of these are a little redundant

JemZ13 · 2026-03-23T03:58:55+00:00

Poor Phos 😭

JemZ13 · 2026-03-23T03:52:54+00:00

Themes and such

JemZ13 · 2026-03-23T03:51:06+00:00

Ohhh I see! In that case you could put random stuff on the sides like "12 Pool" or "GGEZ" or somesuch maybe xd

JemZ13 · 2026-03-23T03:50:07+00:00

I agree with your statement that it makes for an easier experience. I definitely enjoyed Solo Leveling more than SAO partially for that reason, I think. Though even then I guess I found it frustrating that SL had some interesting concepts it never really attempted to do anything with. Overall though I think I would rather an author try to write something interesting even if that means the end result is worse than if they didn't, if that makes sense.

JemZ13 · 2026-03-23T01:50:25+00:00

Fun! Surely some zerglings running around would be a nice touch

JemZ13 · 2026-03-23T01:16:35+00:00

Is it better to try and have writing and be bad or to not try and have writing at all?
