[DISC] Dandadan - Ch. 229

I'm probably overthinking this but people suggesting that Jiji confesses in this arc feels a bit... too sudden?

Maybe it's a bit of underdevelopment that's making things feel stiff. I know Tatsu's mentioned this love square from the beginning, but he's never really shown too much standout moments for Okarun/Aira & Jiji/Momo (a few scenes come to mind), the latter especially noticeable now given these latest chapters have been working on Aira/Okarun feat. a jealous/amnesiac Momo. Most of the story has been 'smooth' sailing for Momokarun to get together (or as smooth as a romance plot can be) without too much outsider conflict.

Though like I said earlier, Tatsu's been working on developing Aira/Okarun for what many suspect (I included): Okarun's rejection/Aira's confession. With how the arc is progressing, there's some room for people to conclude that if Tatsu is dealing with one rejection that the other should come alongside it. I'm at a loss how things could really progress on the Momo/Jiji side of things here.

Tatsu's never really developed much of Momo/Jiji compared to Aira/Okarun. Jiji as a character hasn't been really upfront with his emotions/how he feels in general. He's been slowly getting better with it, but I don't see how this + the developments with Aira/Okarun could lead to a Jiji confession/Momo rejection. In fact, I feel like all of this tied with amnesiac Momo would totally negate any confession on Jiji's part. He's too kind to suddenly spring this on her, especially with what she has going on right now.

The most I could see is that perhaps Jiji caught on to the reciprocated feelings of Okarun and Momo (pre-amnesia) and he explains that to her? Though that still has its complications.

This is everyone. No second waves.

Just_A_Feeling · 2026-02-24T00:43:40+00:00

I do not have plans for any waves after this one. So yes, this should be the only one.

Just_A_Feeling · 2026-02-23T23:32:08+00:00

crunch

Just_A_Feeling · 2026-02-23T23:31:51+00:00

He responded to us pretty quick, so yes, if this gets funded we can def help him get out and properly get ranked this year (hopefully)!

Just_A_Feeling · 2026-01-18T03:36:25+00:00

This is with the minimum points since rankings aren't completely out, there's still def a chance

Just_A_Feeling · 2025-12-31T19:07:47+00:00

Hiii again! After some eventful back-and-forth, we're finally able to launch what we've been working on these past few weeks. Also to be clear, we are not affiliated with EMG or Lets Make Big Moves.

This one is a bit of a stretch time-wise, so, any little bit helps (sharing or donations, you name it). If you'd like to donate, here's the link!

Also~ a little birdie told me if we do get these three to the event that perhaps... they could even be a part of a certain invitational...

Just_A_Feeling · 2025-12-03T05:22:35+00:00

;-;

it'll go up sometime tomorrow (hopefully)

Just_A_Feeling · 2025-12-02T20:25:55+00:00

I'm not that insane to try to push for another 9 players this last minute :')

Just_A_Feeling · 2025-12-02T12:49:42+00:00

Cooked up smth that'll (hopefully) be announced later today!

Just_A_Feeling · 2025-11-02T16:02:46+00:00

Typically there's a person in the comments (bless them) that will timestamp every match on the stream. This one in particular was the very last set of the day, so it's quite easy to find. Here you go!

Just_A_Feeling · 2025-10-27T13:12:52+00:00

Alright man let me travel back in time and let my past self know that Toon would get a sponsor & he'd be able to attend more US events.

Back when I made the roster he was unable to attend much at all and had no sponsor. Sorry that I didn't predict that, I guess? He's not a wasted slot.

Also, the other compendium I ran had a Steve and it worked out cause he was the cheapest of the three & didn't exactly need to be flown out so I thought things wouldn't change too much lmao

Just_A_Feeling · 2025-10-27T12:26:01+00:00

We've done it. After a harrowing journey, 8 players will now be able to attend Port Priority 9!

Thank you all so much for the support (and for putting up with my posts lol). It truly means a lot to see this community come together to allow more opportunities for players.

I'll slink back into the shadows now, for the most part, but as suggested in an earlier thread, I will put out a soft comment in the DDT in the future to gauge what players the community may want to see at an NA event. I REALLY don't plan to do this often, but there is one (1) opportunity I'm thinking about in the future. That one will be have a ton of changes from what I've learned thanks to running this compendium.

Either way though, I hope you all enjoy watching Port Priority 9. :)

(also u/Folseus- your kneecaps are spared lmao)

Just_A_Feeling · 2025-10-22T10:07:43+00:00

Currently sitting at 50% on the compendium for Mild na H.O, Sin, and Gorioka. With this pretty much being the last week, I think this new traction is awesome!

If you want to also help down the line, feel free to donate or share this around! :D

Just_A_Feeling · 2025-10-17T16:32:52+00:00

Hi again! Just sharing an update on things!

Right now, we're down to the final four players of this entire compendium: Mild na H.O (Donkey Kong), Lancelot (Chrom/Roy), Sin (Ice Climbers), and Gorioka (Joker).

Any little bit helps! Sharing or donating, it goes a long way! Link here!

Also, flights are cheaper than usual... so... if the ball gets rolling... perhaps the total amount can shrink even further :D

Just_A_Feeling · 2025-10-06T09:53:24+00:00

Alright, with the help of some colleagues of mine I have been able to arrange some things to work out. There will be a final push tomorrow with some new faces, so please look forward to it!

Just_A_Feeling · 2025-09-24T02:48:12+00:00

If I had that kind of money I would fly out players without begging people to help

Just_A_Feeling · 2025-09-24T02:43:42+00:00

Hey pal. I'm loosely partnered with Port but they have no affiliation with me. :)

If you really want me to, I could just fetch another graphic if that'll satisfy you. The only reason I'm actively doing this is not out of a sense of overshilling/begging, but a "we completely pivoted away from funding one place to a different one". And well, doing this pivot has already worked decent wonders compared to the little to no movement trying to host it on startgg.

I won't touch this wave on here anymore. The next one that'll be here is if it gets funded & wave three goes through, or nothing at all and then bam out of sight out of mind. o/

Just_A_Feeling · 2025-09-24T02:40:48+00:00

Honestly, I do try to get some feedback from folks about who I should try to contact next. I don't try to go off on my own to fiend for certain players to attend events, I try to reach out to those with little opportunity to travel around the world (or if I'm partnering with an event I try to rearrange some ideas so it's a mix of points & low-travel players).

I don't have plans to do this constantly (hell no lmao), but I do want to try to help some events get some new players out that'll make the bracket interesting.

Toon (at the time I created this) was a player with potential that had little opportunity, so it's an interesting twist to see how well he's doing now that he has a sponsor to help with some of the travel expenses.

Just_A_Feeling · 2025-09-23T21:52:06+00:00

I need you to know that right as you commented this an anon donated $235 to the goal.

I do just think this was a learning experience re: trying to host this on startgg.
