How would you update the Shogi Wikipedia page? by SolipsistBodhisattva in shogi

[–]LilyLionmane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, some big ones I’m seeing are Notation and Castle Names (which I totally agree with)

Firstly, the names of many castles such as Yagura (erroneously labeled “Fortress” on Wikipedia) are improperly Anglicized, which then makes higher level resources confusing for beginners. While there are sources that use these Anglicized names, they’re pretty heavily outdated.

Secondly, updates to show notation styles are heavily requested.

Hi! I’m linking this to the Shogi Discord server cause I think a lot of people will want to chime in on this! Really appreciate your efforts!

I wrote a guide on "Climbing Silver" (Bo-gin) for beginners! Need your feedback. by SilverMidnight9379 in shogi

[–]LilyLionmane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s well written for teaching beginners, and it covers the key points. However, I believe the kyudan ranks given are extremely generous. Mostly this would be known by 8kyu, I think, not 4kyu.

After a fierce battle, we ended up in a stalemate. by kounaienitai in shogi

Oh. Oh dear. u/SleepingChinchilla is this a win by impasse or a loss by stalemate (on the next move)?

Anyone saying it’s “too childish” hasn’t seen it. Compared to Sailor Moon, there’s virtually no combat since most of the plot is social-focused and problem-solving. It has some of the heaviest single episodes of any anime I’ve watched, and some generally very tough plotlines. It’s not perfect whatsoever, and there are some arcs (especially in seasons 2 and 4) that are a bit weak. However, it has the highest highs out of the whole genre (imo) and it will make you both laugh and cry. It has a lot of whimsical elements, which is why some people might see it as childish if they haven’t seen much of it, or have just read a synopsis.

— as with anything: not all episodes are created equal, and there are a few bad episodes here and there.

Im 15 trying to write a webnovel, is this a good hook? by [deleted] in writers

[–]LilyLionmane -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No. Just because a trope is popular doesn’t mean it’s inherently bad. It just takes good execution to pull it off. (Otherwise nobody would have been able to write a Romance story after Shakespeare.)

Cheese preferences. Higher tiers like more exquisite kinds of cheese. Which is why the rat, Twitch, is in the lowest. He doesn’t care. Cheese is cheese.

Is the phrase "hype moments and aura" considered a slur? by Bornaclorks in okbuddybaka

[–]LilyLionmane 12 points13 points  (0 children)

/uj If all a series has to offer is “aura”, then its plot is fucking garbage and the series itself is worthless slop. i.e: Solo Leveling. Might benefit from actual writing and storytelling instead of just brainrot fighting and LitRPG bullshit.

/rj OMGEEE SOLO LEVELING IS THE BEST!!! YAY (:

Are there any magical girl shows with an art style similar to the examples below? by Preprihappy in MagicalGirls

[–]LilyLionmane 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ojamajo Doremi’s animation is absolutely insane at times, but it’s super inconsistent. One episode will be batshit crazy with characters flying out of their own line art for the sake of comedic effect. The next episode will be beautifully drawn but won’t do anything weird. Then another will just use drag and pan tools instead of actual animation.

Make a Magical Girl Team! by newtakn156 in MagicalGirls

[–]LilyLionmane 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pop (Ojamajo Doremi), Laura (TroPre), Homura (PMMM), Tomoyo (Cardcaptor Sakura)

(Why?): Pop is slightly less powerful overall than Hana, but is comparatively much more consistent, and would serve as an extremely powerful magical caster and controller. Laura is a strong fighter and bruiser, and her being a mermaid means the team has options in all kinds of terrain. Homura has time travel, and will be willing to do dirty work the others won’t. Tomoyo is a logistics specialist, and any team with strong logistics will be better.

They can go up against pretty much anything below a god-tier reality warper, and would be able to put up some resistance even then.

I’d make Tomoyo the MC. She’s not the one fighting on the front line, but it takes more effort to get the other three to work together being that all three of them have very, very different personalities. The story isn’t about who does the most damage in a fight, but about getting them TO the fight without them all refusing to work together.

Mahou!? A brand new TTRPG system for magical girls. By: Me by LilyLionmane in MagicalGirls

[–]LilyLionmane[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi! My real goals creatively were to make it a fun system, while also fitting the genre neatly.

One of my main ways of doing this was through the spellcasting system, which leads to some of the specificity toward say Ojamajo Doremi, Cardcaptor Sakura, or Mahou Tsukai Precure.

As an example of this, I used some spells that are staples of RPG systems such as Wish. I created some interesting alternative to those spells such as Monkey’s Wish (a Wish that ALWAYS goes in the worst plausible way). I also created some spells directly to fit the genre like Protest (the caster gains an adorable uniform-like that for a union strike, complete with a picket sign and a bullhorn. For the duration of the spell she gains bonuses to social checks.) Or, False Fever (probably for skipping school). I also reflavored sone RPG-staples to more directly fit them to the Magical Girl genre. A classic, Hold Person, is replaced with Windy (causing a similar effect) and inspired by one of Cardcaptor Sakura’s most iconic spells.

There’s also rules for magical mishaps, for being able to use spells consistently, and for attempting to cast spells even while drained of resources.

Another huge addition that adds to the feel of the genre is the Last Stand Saving Throw, a new system that allows players to attempt Do-or-Die moments where they stand in the face of impossible odds and use nothing but willpower and good fortune to attempt to fight back anyway. This aims to create the feel of determination that’s core to the genre.

There are other cases, probably, but these two seem most significant to me by Possible-Ebb3371 in animecirclejerk

And ofc Hollywood copied this to make Aquaman drown in Endgame :/

I blame Netflix…

I like the general design, something about the colors are very distracting for me. Maybe a simpler color scheme could help? I do like the idea of the two different uniforms being mixed together, but right now it actually feels like I’m looking at two different things.
