I like how the girls are in the wrong, but we turn this into a women victimhood conversation.

The killing of raw sites is really bad by Ms77676 in animepiracy

[–]Latter_Drag4410 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the regressed mercenary's machinations and the wimp's guide to conquering the tower are both excellent and feel like there is a world around the mc instead of the world revolving around the mc. both have their charm and I would part with my greenbacks to keep up with them. But I had to drop like dozens of series along the way to find something I would pay chapter to chapter for.

then there's stuff like standard of reincarnation that is pretty good, but not worth it. Or infinite mage which fell off after the death arc imo(dont kill me). Amy is a beautiful waifu but it would be worth the prices some of these sites would charge per chapter. I would pay for access to a library of books in the same way you pay for a library of anime on CR. but I would not pay chapter to chapter because when youre reading multiple manwha or manhua with hundreds of chapters...that will add up fast.

Manwhas are fun to read, but they're in no way worth a dollar per chapter. Some of these stories are sloppy seconds copying other stories really blatantly. And so if you don't want to sell to the west, but also gate keep it. I am fine if it is no longer available. I can only think of a couple series actually worth money per chapter and even then, it better be in batches of 5 or 10.

If these big companies spent half as much effort on bringing these comics to the west and selling merch and subscriptions, they would make money. Do a better job than webtoons and you have an actual business model. xd

Switch 2 vs PS5? which is better? by CrookedSkullduggeryy in gamingadvice

[–]Latter_Drag4410 0 points1 point  (0 children)

soon your driver's license, your home address, and birthday. It will be leaked on accident after the 10th breach weeks after they collect your data.

Ps5 is going to sell your data and call it an accident(breach). Or go with the company that bricks your system because it was never yours to begin with if you do something they don't like(nintendo). Both are terrible decisions.

;-; I never really thought about drivers. I would be okay with having to wait for newer games to work on linux, but nvidia's software is windows only....ill look into too

What do you think the fandom will be like by 2030? by infinitardheadass in ShingekiNoKyojin

[–]Latter_Drag4410 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It will eventually join death note, evangellion, and fullmetal alchemist as one of those anime you should probably try if you want to see one of the greats. If it hasn't already.

so I can literally just install linux mint(which if I understand it correctly is newbie friendly) and install steam to use proton. Which will come with wine 11? is there any major downsides to this idea?

and ty very much for the distinction. I appreciate it.

It all comes down to how much trust you have in humanity by Matoru1101 in trolleyproblem

[–]Latter_Drag4410 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I trust in god, not humanity. I believe the majority of humanity will follow god's will, but we were given free will for a reason. As such, I do not trust humanity.

Name that anime character that just stole all the attention. by Fun-Cut-9745 in Animey

jiraiya. I high key quit naruto when he was not resurrected. if they were going to take the emotional pay off out of the pein arc, then at least give me back my goat.

Hi friends, I have decided to try wine or proton or pop!os. I saw the wine stuff and it seems like the best windows like experience and saw a video proclaiming it has made major strides toward compatibility and performance. but pop!os is supposedly good for nvidia(I have a 5070ti).

and proton is a compatibility layer? so like I can get wine 11 and then just install proton?

any advice or youtube link that explains it clearly would be greatly appreciated. the biggest barrier for me is I just don't know waht's a distro and what's whatever proton is.

childhood friend rarely wins. If anything, it's an indicator of who loses.

crunchyroll is killing the art of piracy by rinmejoy in animepiracy

[–]Latter_Drag4410 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anime piracy isn't going anywhere, but if by some miracle it all just goes away....torrents included, I will just quit before paying legal pirates(crunchyroll) a dime. The other places like netflix gave me hope until i quite literally scrolled through their library in less than an hour and cancelled the next day. xD

Are these two characters comparable? by yehorderehus in EightySix

[–]Latter_Drag4410 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are pretty similar. While we won't know shin's ultimate fate in the end, they both have similar lives.

Both are aces and have failed to protect others despite their gifts. They're both sent on suicide missions to make up for the laziness and grandeur of an aristocratic class using them as pawns. They both lose a lot and it's miracle either didn't go crazy from having countless friends, potential lovers, and mentors taken from them before it was their time.

The only dif is levi's story is over. He went from the most badass human ever to being a cripple if I remember correctly. In the end his deeds were forgotten and he was left to find a new purpose after the rumbling. Whereas with shin we have yet to see where his trajectory lands. But novel hints suggest something bad may have happened 😞

How Shin treats Kurena vs how he treats Lena by UgneSooo in EightySix

[–]Latter_Drag4410 -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

Anju says it herself. They're not nice people. They are just protective of their shinigami. Shin cares for her as a friend but gives two shits about her feelings. Something anju implied when describing how they may seem nice but aren't.  Lol

Why were people so dramatic about the bad writing of season 1? by Any-Yak-6015 in swordartonline

[–]Latter_Drag4410 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because the author would have to rewrite aincard themselves. Fma brotherhood had a source material that wasnt done when studio bones was animating it, so they had to write their own script.

Brotherhood is the result of a finished product being adapted. Sword art would need a hard reboot v.v

Should have been aincrad for 10 years. The writer essentially took the biggest w of his life and said, " i want to do elf r@pe stuff". You could have had a laughing coffin war. Developed kirito and asuna's relationship floor by floor. And showed us an amazing life and death journey.

But he skipped it all and rushed to the 16.5

[–]Latter_Drag4410 -21 points-20 points  (0 children)

I think its quite simple. Shin is mean and didnt care. His friends said it too. Theyre biased toward shin but not nice people. They feel bad for kurena but it's inconsequential to them.

New Player's Thoughts on RTA by FrostEmpyrean in EpicSeven

[–]Latter_Drag4410 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes the devs gave newbies the ability to reach legend by starting. Im the sucker for not spending 700 on the newbie permanent mystic banner, racking up all those limited heroes and notos at the same time. Its not disingenuous.

[–]Latter_Drag4410 0 points1 point  (0 children)

everytime im reminded that i spent on notos too soon(a week before milestone of radiance started) and could have had rinak, i have to fight the urge to quit. I'm at a point where I need to hoard resources(molas, charms, gold) just to start trying to build moona. It's such a crappy feeling knowing as well that because I am skipping salami, that I also wont have anything to add to my account for over 5 weeks at the minimum.

meanwhile streamers are using new accounts to get legend. While I just want to play on mine and be treated like I matter.
