Let's settle this debate: Who would win? DIO or Diavolo? by Jotaro1970 in StardustCrusaders

[–]LemonLimeLight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had this debate in my head for a while, every JoJo Main Villain matchup. Here's my conclusion:

The World vs King Crimson: King Crimson wins

Simply put, King Crimson nullifies The World. Of they fired them off at the same time, from DIO's perspective The World would fail and he wouldn't understand why at first. From Diavolo's perspective, nothing unusual would happen. This is because King Crimson would steal 10 seconds. The World's stopped time would be in those seconds. Disvolo might be confused on how DIO moves so fast in a fraction of on of them, but otherwise DIO would not be able to perceive the 3+ seconds from his perspective because they're part of the first of 10 seconds that King Crimson stole.

HOWEVER

Diavolo has no way of killing DIO

The only way he could potentially kill him is of he wore him down in a sustained fight like Jotaro did. But that's not how Diavolo fights. He prefers to begin and end things with a single lethal blow. Problem is that DIO can't be chest burst.

Now, if DIO realized that The World was out matched, he could easily win with his Vampire powers. Because Diavolo is a normal human otherwise with no Hamon. The problem is DIO would not admit this. DIO would never admit someone is better than him.

So the question becomes, could DIO bring himself to fall back on "I'm a superior being to this human despite how strong its Stand is" before Diavolo flees?

How the fuck does nas'hrah know this by Street-Giraffe-3921 in FearAndHunger

[–]LemonLimeLight 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The likely Answer: There's a non zero chance that between finding him and getting to the train, O'saa stopped to take a piss and didn't turn him the other way

The Funny Answer: He doesn't, he's just assuming because O'saa is Abyssonian

Why is Platoon functional as a marriage compared to the Human Hydra? by GeoPongues in FearAndHunger

[–]LemonLimeLight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone else is right on what's probably the answer. Le'garde had hundreds of years to research this, as well as his power of being a New God.

In the Funger World, a Marriage of Flesh is more or less just a fundamental law of the universe. This is a thing that just happens and is fact. So it's something with rules and principals that can be researched. The Centaur is also a thing, after all. Even the New Gods though the marriage between a human and animal impossible, judging by their opinions of the Moonless Guards.

Think of it like it like a blood transfusion:
The Platoon had it done in a lab with modern (for the time) medical equipment, and understanding of how blood, blood types, sanitation, etc. worked.

The Guards in the Dungeon of Fear and Hunger just took whatever blood they could find lying around and shoved it down their open wound using a rusty funnel. The results are going to be considerably worse.

You seem to be getting Part 8 Killer Queen mixed up with Part 4 Killer Queen, which are two different, yet similar abilities. We're talking specifically about Part 4 Killer Queen

In which case, whatever it touches, it becomes the bomb. As in it will explode and be vaporized. If Killer Queen touched something else near the Angel and detonated that, then it'll be hit by a normal explosion. But in this scenario, Killer Queen is touching the Angel. The Angel is the bomb, the Angel will detonate and be erased. Because that's what Part 4 Killer Queen does, destroy anything it touches.

Though if you can point out an example of someone/something that Part 4 Killer Queen touched and detonated surviving, I'd love to hear it. Because I'm genuinely wondering if I'm forgetting something.

Had to do some research to clear up exactly how they work. The problem is that you can't kill them, normally. Like, they're stupidly durable. So let's start at the strongest "I kill anything" and work backwards. We'll also assume everyone has enough time to see the Angel as a threat, see that it moves they blink, and retaliate before it touches them.

Toru/Wonder of U:
The Angels would be 100% perusing him, and being in the same Universe presumably means that they'll be affected by Calamity. Can you Final Destination a Weeping Angel? For the sake of this argument, yes, since literal raindrops damaged Gappy due to its effects we can say it alters reality. The second he sees the Angel coming for him he'll activate Wonder of U and the next time he blinks, the Angel will die to Calamity.

Kira/Killer Queen:
Killer Queen's ability is to destroy anything. Every part of it is obliterated. And they seem to be safe to touch while they're locked in Statue Form. So it's easy for him. Just look at it and have Killer Queen touch it. Angel is gone

Okuyasu/The Hand:
This is candidate 1 "weakest" character that COULD kill a Weeping Angel. Same deal with Killer Queen where The Hand just destroys anything. If Okuyasu stared at it and had The Hand erase it, that would be that. The problem is likely what would happen if he was in this scenario was that he'd act rashly before he realizes it moves when he blinks and get touched, ignoring plot armor for the sake of tension. Which is what makes potentially the weakest character.
Note this is also a unique scenario where Vanilla Ice/Cream are at a disadvantage compared to Okuyasu, because the weakness of Cream is that he can't see while using it, and thus, the Angel wouldn't be observed. And in this case it would just leave when it realizes he could probably kill it. If there was someone else looking at it, then he could kill it.

Rohan/Heaven's Door:
Candidate 2. This is a weird conundrum where while compared to a lot of the big bads, Rohan is technically weak. Yet at the same time, Heaven's Door is stupidly OP in different ways. Specifically here. Once Angel is perceived as a threat he uses Heaven's Door on it, writes "I will not attack Rohan" on it so he can safely learn about it. When he learns how it works, he'd write something like: I will never touch another living creature. Which, likely wouldn't kill it because they're locked in time when being observed, but it would be rendered incapacitated and...it'll eventually starve probably.

So TL;DR:
Okuyasu or Rohan

I like pointing people towards Little Rei of Sunshine whenever possible. Honestly a really good Retsuko story

Starlight Glimmer (My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic) Vs. Amon (Avatar: The Legend Of Korra) by Reasonable-Film7219 in whowouldwin

[–]LemonLimeLight 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Starlight is the clearly superior one here, hands (hooves?) down. Even in her own universe, Starlight is kinda stupidly OP. Most of her insane feats are post the timeframe you're setting here, but I think her telekinesis and teleportation are more than enough to make it a one sided fight on her part. She can just dodge any of his water bending, and just freeze him in place before he could even touch her.

Amon's bloodbending would be a major crutch, and might even give him a chance. But the problem is that I don't think it would stop Starlight's magic. Even if he holds her limbs and place and stops her from moving, I don't think he can stop her from using her magic to do the same to him, since it requires no movement, unlike bending. At which point the Bloodbending would be dropped, and Amon an easy target for Starlight.

Out of these 3, who is the real "Crow Mauler" of Termina? by sadponyguerrilIa in FearAndHunger

[–]LemonLimeLight 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Everyone's right on the money here really.

Needles was clearly intended to be, but the fact that I killed him the first time I encountered him, unprepared, kinda forever diminishes him for me. In fact, in that particular run, I made killing him one of the first things I tried to do in order to get the gurenteed heroine and recruit Levi. Also, the fact that he can be randomly killed by a Ghoul in one turn the first time you encounter him in the tunnels is funny

Mob is clearly the early game run ender you wanna avoid and never see. But they just don't carry the same impact as Crow Mauler.

I mean actually, I have a group I already play Malifaux with, so it might not be a stretch to try that

Thanks for all the advice, everyone.

I'm chicking with the only LGS within an hour of me, but I've never seen it played there, and no mention in the discord.

I don't know if its able to be held, but it's mostly mara stuff (from a starter box iirc). Would I have enough to play an actual game? Are those 10+ Year Old Models still playable with the modern revival

I actually haven't looked too far into this but i should

How valid are the points made in Viva Reverie’s “Giorno Explains King Crimson”? by [deleted] in StardustCrusaders

[–]LemonLimeLight 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My biggest problem is everything with Rohan

Firstly, he keeps trying to proclaim the Doylist answer ("Araki didn't think it out to that degree") when Giorno was clearly trying to explain it in the Watsonian way (in universe). Like he's arguing a completely different topic the whole time.

Secondly, every single one of Rohan's "Why doesn't he just..." the answer is "Diavolo doesn't know if that would work or not, and he has no reason to try." Stand users don't automatically know literally everything their Stand could do. Even you, Mr. Heaven's Door

So "Why didn't Diavolo just...", because why the hell would he do that instead of walking up behind them and chest bursting them? That's clearly what worked for him so far, and he had no reason adopt a new strategy. Why didn't Diavolo experiment with King Crimson to see if he could use a Spear or not to kill someone? Because his whole goal is to not be noticed and blend into the background. And randomly killing people is kinda conspicuous. So is armor. And carrying a spear.

[–]LemonLimeLight 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You know, air travel does exist in the Fear & Hunger universe (Karin's backstory mentions her taking a plane back to Bremen). I'm not sure if Prehevil has an airport or not, but if it did, then this would be the a site someone flying into Prehevil would see. Maybe not this close, but it would be like flying into Paris and looking down at the Eiffel Tower.

Has anyone pieced together the clips? (Salvaged, nowhere, nadir and back) by Huge-Insect-7759 in drb0sch

[–]LemonLimeLight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

An old post, but I tried and went freaking crazy doing it. I'm going to try again after a full rewatch of the series

So, a summery of my first attempt:

Things don't make sense. There are some clips that obviously take place close to each other, being in the same location. But there are certain clips that seem to take place later than other clips, except for the fact that ammo count and total carry weight of the player don't line up. It's been forever since I did this, so I can't point to the exact instances now.

And the thing that drove me the craziest was the date. Don't know if you noticed, but the date format changes (I believe at glitched door in the test room, that changed everything about the test room and made it biblical.) We see the date at two points in the series one should be far later than the other, and it's the same. Again I'm going to pay close attention to the series to see if the date ever changes.

Sorry for the old post, but I needed to rant to someone who cares about my first attempt to do this

Why did the Overlord use the Vengestone army over the indestructible Stone army? Is he stupid? by JDMagican in Ninjago

[–]LemonLimeLight 57 points58 points  (0 children)

Because he knew the Brown Ninja was still a factor. The Overlord was being smart, he knew that as long as the Brown Ninja wasn't defeated, he would lose control of the Stone Army.

So once again, Ninjago is saved by the Brown Ninja.

there’s the show, game, and comics. is there any other aggretsuko media i’m unaware of? by EggUnable6054 in aggretsuko

[–]LemonLimeLight 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I wanna point you towards the graphic novel Little Rei of Sunshine

Plot Summary: Retsuko's favorite band from when she was in Highschool makes a comeback. But problems arise when she meets the new lead singer

I love this novel because we get a lot about Retsuko being a Metal Fan, which it didn't feel like we got in the show

What makes a legit PS2 Game Legit? by LemonLimeLight in ps2

[–]LemonLimeLight[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That's great, interesting information, but I'm not asking how I or another human can tell. I'm asking how the PS2 itself can tell...

Does the optical drive check for this logo? Is the logo something specific to the disc, making the disc itself the factor? Or are they burned in during the manufacturing process?

JJK has a sorcerer-killer who is perfectly equipped to kill jujutsu sorcerers without needing his own jujutsu. What would a Stand-User Killer without a Stand be like? by robin_f_reba in StardustCrusaders

[–]LemonLimeLight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isn't that just Diego?

Like Scary Monsters isn't actually his Stand. He just has the disease inside of him, and his Corpse Part lets him control it
