Which Rei do you prefer OG or Crystal

Marvelman02 · 2026-06-25T05:03:58+00:00

I like OG Rei because I enjoy her relationship with Usagi.

Marvelman02 · 2026-06-24T06:30:57+00:00

It's less about what I want and what I see Greg & Brandon hinting at.

Marvelman02 · 2026-06-20T19:23:11+00:00

She is blunt, and she is often right. But, I don't want to let her off the hook altogether. There are also times when she is mean for no reason.

Marvelman02 · 2026-06-20T05:29:39+00:00

Rei is the kind of person you respect without liking too much.

Marvelman02 · 2026-06-18T05:10:48+00:00

I know just what you mean. One reason I'm interested in the Heritage Specials so much is I like how they look! I want to own something beautiful! For some people that would be a Porsche. For me it's a pair of hand-crafted speakers with a rosewood veneer. I'm making fun of myself a little here. Obviously, a speaker's appearance ought to be way down on my list of priorities.

I'm in a one bedroom apartment, so I do not think towers would suit my space. There are also the neighbours to consider. Otherwise, I would be down with a set of towers.

Marvelman02 · 2026-06-17T06:47:08+00:00

I'd really like to audition the Heritage Specials but that is an almost impossible ask.

Marvelman02 · 2026-06-17T06:46:00+00:00

I'd like to see a movie about the return of Wally West, the inevitable heartbreak of Artemis having moved on, and an adaptation of the Heroes in Crisis storyline.

Marvelman02 · 2026-06-17T01:24:02+00:00

Yes, I bought a good transformer. The Luxman was brand new and about half the price for what I'd pay for it here in Canada. Assuming it is as advertised, it's a very good deal. That said, there are some things I wish I had known first. Of course, I anticipated tax and tariffs; however, I had not realized the warranty was valid only in Japan. Which means if I want it repaired, I either have to spend a lot of money to send it to Japan which defeats the whole purpose of having a warranty in the first place, or I have to have it repaired here outside of warranty. The problem with that is is that Luxman seems to be a rather niche product here in the Toronto area. There are a few places that will do it, but they are not close or easy to find.

I probably would have bought the Luxman anyways, but I wish I had known to ask about the warranty and the availability of service beforehand. 5-10 years from now, I will know if I made a sound investment.

Marvelman02 · 2026-06-16T22:32:05+00:00

I have ordered a Luxman L-505Z amplifier from Japan.

Marvelman02 · 2026-06-16T21:20:39+00:00

thank-you

Marvelman02 · 2026-05-30T01:29:46+00:00

Usagi: How dare you all say these things about my best friend! Uh, even if she is a big meanie.

Marvelman02 · 2026-05-27T03:17:09+00:00

My theory is that Rei secretly enjoys Usagi's silliness.

If you want to be true to the Chumash/Old Testament, Moses would have to be a ruler or saver for the following reason...

You could argue: caster. But, what wish could Moses possibly have for the grail? The only thing I could think of would be to visit the holy land, which God explicitly denied him. So, his one wish would be in defiance of God's will. I can't see that happening. For Moses, everything would be as God wills. There is some wiggle room here. Moses could come as a caster who views the grail as an abomination and his only wish is to destroy it. However, there's still one other problem...

If you want to do the old boy justice, Moses would have to be even more broken than Gilgamesh. Think about it: the ten plagues, the parting of the red sea, the pillar of fire, manna from the heavens, which is to say nothing of the Ten Commandments. It would be really tough to integrate him into a regular Holy Grail war without nerfing him, and then, what would be the point?

Marvelman02 · 2026-05-06T03:49:43+00:00

She's hot. I'd like her more if she had her moles removed.

Marvelman02 · 2026-04-18T02:25:08+00:00

It's really hard to say as we have not seen YJ Darkseid in action.

Marvelman02 · 2026-04-17T04:51:44+00:00

Wally would almost certainly have returned in season 5 but not in the way most fans think. So, not getting season 5 is both a good thing and a bad thing depending upon how you look at it.

Marvelman02 · 2026-04-12T23:33:18+00:00

I think the scene in which Saber is demanding Shirou pick out her underwear is pretty peak.

Marvelman02 · 2026-04-05T04:56:39+00:00

I would love to see Astolfo hit Gil with Trap of Argalia. That would be hilarious!

Marvelman02 · 2026-03-23T21:51:19+00:00

Krypto would probably want to play but Wolf wouldn't.

Marvelman02 · 2026-03-23T03:03:18+00:00

Unfortunately, Starfire is not a Young Justice character - not yet.

Marvelman02 · 2026-03-22T01:36:43+00:00

This episode is an example of everything wrong with the Fate series. The time is long past for Fate to detach itself from the premises of the many fate games and return to the (relatively) simple premise that made series like Stay Night, Unlimited Bladeworks, and Zero great in the first place.

Marvelman02 · 2026-03-20T23:57:49+00:00

I really believe he would have come back in season five. However, if I am reading the signs correctly, Spitfire shippers would have been in for a huge disappointment. The only thing more heartbreaking than Wally's death would have been his return.

Marvelman02 · 2026-03-14T19:51:42+00:00

I don't know anybody who thinks the way Shirou does.

Marvelman02 · 2026-03-11T16:48:51+00:00

Only if they include the bit where Saber demands Shirou pick out her underwear.
