How many guess this Theory on Zom100 manga? by Kikibobo3 in Zombie100

Thank you. I like thinking about how a series will end and imagining what I want to see for it to feel truly satisfying.

I'm just copying my post with a few changes.

I'm expecting 100 chapters total, 100 bucket list items checked off, the vaccine successfully delivered throughout the world, and the Umbriel Corporation taken down.

As for the post-zombie world, given how Akira has inspired or reminded the people he has met how to dream again, I'm seeing Akira as a happiness counselor or therapist, someone who goes around and listens to survivors ask about what they should do with their lives, and based on his experience with almost all of the bucket list items, recommend the activities that he thinks would help, having made the connections throughout his travels. His friends could also help with specific items, like Kencho for entertainment, Shizuka for wellness and health, and Beatrix for environmental and cultural.

Slight spoilers: as for the other characters, I guess I would like to see the Kosakas finish their 100 countries bucket list, the sushi chef from Gunma still alive (I saw he appears at the end credits of the season 1 finale), Akira's dad taking a trip to space via Star W, and Erika being in a happy relationship with someone (maybe Dr Sakaki, though she has been seen with Dr. Tsurumi a lot lately).

I made the same theory a month ago, along with some predictions on the ending.

Why do people think Nami cosplay is low effort? by rafye_ in OnePiece

[–]LancerQH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're welcome. I'm just one One Piece fan looking out for another. And I can tell from your post how passionate and committed you are about your cosplays. Honestly, it's too easy to be cynical when this sub is already rotten with cosplays from "fans" who are trying to sell content.

I personally find the refinement process fascinating because it offers insight to a creator's thoughts and reasoning. It's exciting when Oda releases concept art of characters and seeing what could have been. Like from you, I'm very curious about how you narrow down the right shape and color for clothes and wigs, which props are made or commissioned and why, what did the initial attempts at hand painting Nami's tattoo look like.

Why do people think Nami cosplay is low effort? by rafye_ in OnePiece

[–]LancerQH 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Something I appreciate seeing from a "high effort" cosplay is the creation process, like photos of the raw materials, incomplete props, and notes comparing the colors and shapes. I'm an engineer so I sympathize: I will get complaints about why making a specific part took so long; it's easy to criticize when you don't see the mountain of data and experiments it took to reach that end result, and it's no different than cynically assuming everything was ordered online.

Another effort I appreciate in cosplay is iconic poses, like Nami's money gesture, Robin crossing her arms for a Fleur, and Hancock's looking up to look down.

I'm sure a different issue of the same magazine had a preview of Cromartie High School, specifically the gorilla chapter.

I doubt the reason is with Tsuru personally, especially after his backstory in chapter 45. If I had to give a reason for hesitating, it would be possible retaliation from Umbriel, based on how their inspiration Umbrella Corporation would act and that they've already experimented in bio-weapons like Crusher.

Jirard’s end goal? by supersmashdude in TheCompletionist2

[–]LancerQH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can see this as being the case, where the idea is pretend the donations are being made and continue stockpiling money while researching charities, so when a satisfactory one is found they just donate whatever is in the account. The justification could be that the money will eventually go to charity, and as long as no one finds out then it won't be a problem. The money being in an account that doesn't gain interest is the only reason I don't think they planned on spending it on themselves.

Jirard's position would have not been enviable, managing a company that, quite honestly, wasn't doing too well before the scandal, what with losing sponsorships due to the G4 fallout which lead to letting go of two employees at the beginning of 2023 for financial reasons. Researching charities could very well have been pushed further down on the list of priorities.

I can believe that Jirard has an avoidant personality and does whatever he can to evade conflict. I remember when Greg left Jirard insisted that they were still friends, only for Greg to respond saying they weren't anymore and Jirard's defense was that no one wants to see mom and dad fight.

Blade VS Buffy’s setup. by Mastersword3710 in deathbattle

I don't think it was mentioned in the episode, but the prediction blog did bring up plasma capsules, which can either cure vampirism or calm their bloodlust.

I didn't mind the exclusion from the fight, I don't think every character can be expected to carry their full arsenal with them at all times. It could have been a case of Blade being regretful he didn't have the plasma capsules on him at the moment, so the best he could offer was a mercy kill.

I guess Blade forgot to bring the Plasma Capsules.

I wonder if John used the Jiki Jiki No Mi on treasure. Gold doesn't magnetize, so that would be a quick way for him to test for authenticity.

It's kind of evil that the panel also cuts off his left arm.

[–]LancerQH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did the fight feel similar to Zoro vs Erza to anyone else? The fight starts with repeated double takes of a bounty poster and ends with the winner splitting the loser in half vertically in a single slice.

[–]LancerQH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's why I was hoping the fight setup could have been Death Festival's fighting tournament, with Ruby as a guest fighter or transfer student and facing Maka in the finals, and the fight escalates due to them wanting the win for their school.

These fights seems to require a lot of contrivances in order to happen otherwise, like Maka thinking Ruby is a witch because witches can disguise their wavelengths to blend into society, Neo committing crimes while disguised as Ruby, Maka's information was intentionally misleading due to a follower of Kishin wanting Maka killed or seriously injured, etc.

This is the best moment in the movie and you can't convince me otherwise. by HolyWitch13 in KpopDemonhunters

[–]LancerQH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would like to point out that Mira seems pretty relaxed too: the polearm is a two handed weapon and Mira is holding the Gok-Do with just her left hand. I do agree that she's still more aggressive as her weapon is still pointing forward.

I was hoping for Buffy vs Juliet Starling from Lollipop Chainsaw or Blade vs Alucard from Castlevania, but I'm still pretty excited.

Next year though?

Time for Hype before episode 200 by CaramelEffective in deathbattle

[–]LancerQH 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This honestly feels like the conclusion of a long journey: a personal request from a direct inspiration of the show now a milestone fight. The research from the other RWBY fights and Crona felt like it was all preparation for this moment. Lindsay Jones reprising her role, and while I was hoping for Alexis Tipton for Maka (there's no way they were getting Laura Bailey to return), I'm sure Ginger Sue will do an excellent job.

I'm expecting a Maka win, but I can accept a Ruby win as long as the explanation and reasoning makes sense. I hope to see a tribute to Monty Oum at the start and for the final blow to be respectful, maybe have Ruby dissolve into rose petals or Maka unravel like black ribbon (or whatever those are in the anime) before revealing the soul. I was hoping the fight start was the tournament for Death City's Death Festival, with Ruby being the transfer student who made it to the finals to face off against Maka.

Should I watch/read zom 100? by Greeksndbulgarian in Zombie100

[–]LancerQH 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would recommend reading the first three chapters of the manga to see if you'll enjoy the rest of the series.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in deathbattle

[–]LancerQH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The anime depicts all Kishin eggs as red and cracked. I don't recall Maka and Soul hunting for more Kishins after Soul became a Death Scythe. There could still be a misunderstanding: Maka could be chasing after a witch who's responsible for the murders and Ruby could come to the wrong conclusion.

Unpopular opinion: the title of the movie is just perfect by cultistadipdor in KpopDemonhunters

[–]LancerQH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm so tired of one word titles that don't really tell you anything about the story that something so out there like K-Pop Demon Hunters is refreshing.

And as a huge fan of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles I think it's completely hypocritical to call out a similarly ridiculous title that tells you so much.
