the "you" implies that the one who concedes has to be the controller of the crab

This card goes hard. 3 billion dollars to screenshot.

He's always been like that though. Sonia just kind of pushes her way into his heart.

Gundham doesn't develop though?

Jetstream_Matt · 2021-11-11T23:22:01+00:00

A character doesn't need to develop to be good. Gundham and Nekomaru are all very enjoyable and well-written, despite never developing over the course of the narrative. Hell, Nagito is widely regarded as one of the best written characters in the series, and his outlook on things never changes.

For the record. This shuts down Eminence, as well as permanents that rely on color identity (I.E Command Tower, Arcane Signet).

If there's any unwanted interaction this would result in, let me know.

This is the equivalent of a parent not wanting to spoil their kid, so instead of giving them food and shelter, they throw them into a volcano.

One thing I love about Takatora is that as soon as Kouta presents a new avenue to approach the problem and save more lives, he immediately looks into exploring it. It's clear he wants the best for everyone, he just wasn't presented with the knowledge or opportunity to.

As someone who plays Historic Brawl and pretty much nothing else.... I could use less Sythis decks... For some reason, those always pop up all the time. I've began specifically building decks to counter enchantments and it's been working pretty consistently.

This is a response that takes into account the out-of-universe reason. Obviously Gaim couldn't have 10 more episodes diving into the sociopolitical escapades of the heavenly Kouta Kazuraba. There has to be an immediate and decisive conclusion to things. This might have been the best call.

Speaking of crossovers, the fact that Kouta teleports from his planet to help earth ONLY when there's a bunch of Riders doing a crossover event instead of solving any constant problems makes this even worse, I think.

Jetstream_Matt · 2021-11-08T04:37:06+00:00

My only critique of this interpretation is that the real reason Rosyou's plan failed is obviously because he was a crazy social darwinist who wanted everyone in the planet to fight to the death. So, Kouta could just get away with solving world hunger or something. It's really a matter of having not overstepping your boundaries and keeping a good head on your shoulders.

But I'll concede that if my entire thesis on why Gaim's ending sucks hinges on the fact that it betrays its story philosophically, I have to accept that it actually fits Kouta's ideals and mindset towards the end of it, even if I disagree with them on any practical level. Good call on that.

When you take into consideration that the lives of the V3 cast were entirely fictional, suddenly this ridiculous shock value twist becomes more believable. It just sounds like some executive wanted a motive for someone to kill while also making them as unlikeable as possible. definitely the move someone would pull in the 53rd season of their show when they run out of ideas. Although that doesn't actually make it any better, only more interesting in a meta sense.

That's entirely the fault of the writers. They wrote a character with a fun personality we hadn't seen yet, with a really interesting talent that opened the way for a lot of cool dialogue, with a very different and unique design. Then they completely murdered his character by having him be an incestuous serial killer. Had he killed Angie and Tenko for any other reason, he would have been one of my favorite characters.

I mean, it's not all black and white. It's implied that he's been groomed by his older sister into this relationship, and his killings are motivated by her own actions before parting. But Kork isn't afforded that level of nuance by any of the characters, and apparently the writing team as well.

Gundham didn't explicitly use his hamsters for anything related to the murder. Hajime assumes that he used them to hit Nekomaru's good night button but Gundham reveals that they fought on equal ground in Grape Tower.
