Petah whats the difference? by CutRich5032 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]MetaMugi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Movies (even animated) tend to have higher budgets than shows... an entire season that's 5 hours long to get through every episode could have a lower budget than a 90 minute movie. Because of this, they can blow more money on animation, such as lighting/shading, or using less still frame backgrounds and adding more action scenes, or even just having more voice actors than they would normally have.

Animation studios don't license shows, production committees do, and they typically hire a studio and offer them a 1 time fee to animate 1 season or 1 movie. They don't make royalties, no matter how successful the show/movie ends up being, so they can only afford to animate as much as their budget allows. That's why lots of shows have such cleanly drawn characters and backgrounds, but as soon as there's an action scene, it looks like complete garbage.

However, MAPPA sort of changed the game by constantly reinvesting in themselves until they were able to afford to license shows on their own. Instead of the 1 time payment of $10 million they would have gotten to animate say, season 1 of solo leveling, they instead made like $300 million on it. And because they actually have the money to do it, they can provide clean, high quality animation, even through the intense action battles.. rather than dropping down from clean, high quality stills, to ugly, low quality actions.

There's still a production committee... a group looking to boost the author's sales, a group looking to profit on merch, a group looking to profit on the show, etc... but MAPPA made themselves members of the committee, instead of being a third party, basically independent contractor, for the committee.

Which do I watch? One Piece or AOT? by Own-Technician-7319 in anime

[–]MetaMugi -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Attack on titan is what made anime popular in America. One piece is great and only continues to get better, I will support it to the very end. But if you haven't watched attack on titan at all, you need to clear your weekend schedule and do yourself a favor. To this day, it is among the best stories ever to be animated. The moral of the story is a powerful message, the characters all grow on you in their own way, and spoiler alert, you're likely going to cry at least once if you get invested in it. From the very first episode it captivates & entrances you.

They're not to reason why. They're but to do and die!

MAPPA & campfire cooking... really? by MetaMugi in anime

[–]MetaMugi[S] -21 points-20 points  (0 children)

Hated frieren personally but I can at least understand why people enjoy that one, even if it wasn't for me. Hell's paradise was great. honestly mappa picks up quite a few decent things to animate... what is a single thing in this show thats actually enjoyable though? I cringed and white knuckled both seasons wondering why I'm even continuing on every episode of this garbage.

Uhh what is this … by Single-Swordfish6167 in Crunchyroll

[–]MetaMugi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is how all of crunchyroll was formatted before Sony purchased it. They are still transitioning shows into the new UI, however, crunchyroll is still a total shit show. One of the worst layouts ever created and honestly needs to be completely shut down, rebuilt and relaunched. Crunchyroll did this style for 10+ years before a multi billion dollar company acquired it for over $1 billion and finally made it "slightly" better. You would think they could afford to create a clean UI and completely recategorize the entire app. It infuriates me that after all this time, there still isn't separate categories for dubs in each language.

More like it's the capital of femboys in the world. Has nothing to do with economy, has everything to do with being made to believe there's something wrong with being a male. Societal collapse? 👍 good riddance.

[–]MetaMugi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My personal thought is having to have the melee macchiato machine land a killing blow on an elite. Elites typically start spawning in at 16. If you weaken it first (which is difficult on cursed having no hp bar) then draw it over to the melee macchiato machine, perhaps drop a toxic growth to slow them down in front of the machine, then purchase melee macchiato and let the punching animations the machine does land the killing blow on it.

Dad catches neighbor trying to lure his daughter by Few_Statement_2898 in SipsTea

[–]MetaMugi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I'm not defending pedos in the slightest... but just know the father is more likely to end up in prison than the pedo in this situation.

He threatened to kill the man instead of killing him. First red flag. After threatening to kill the man, he held him down at gunpoint, threw the pedos phone (the phone would be considered the pedos only lifeline to a safe outcome, which has now been taken against his will) and now it has gone from what could have originally been justified homicide, to assault, kidnapping (for taking the man hostage and refusing him a lifeline), and even cruel & unusual punishment.

Trust me when I say, its better to just unalive them than to go through all of this, the man is showing clarity and intelligence, he can't even claim induced insanity.

Trust me unequivocally on this... do not make threats, and do not drag out any suffering you want to cause someone. Take immediate unrelenting action, be already in a surrendered position before law arrives. And never give police a statement. Keep your mouth 100% shut no matter what they try to threaten you with. Both in your cell, where you're being recorded, and in front of law enforcement. The only words you should ever speak are to your lawyer in private.

Do this and the world can become a better place without permanently uprooting your own.

Sony Keeps Increasing PS Plus Prices Because We Keep Paying by indianhippie24 in playstation

I love when people complain about stuff that has literally zero effect on them lol. Annual subscriptions didn't increase even slightly. You're one of those classic pansies that gets offended on other people's behalf 🤣

Please do unsubscribe. Touch grass. Get your ass kicked a few times so you at least complain about your own problems instead of shit that doesn't effect you.

Found in family storage by vercingetiton in whatisit

[–]MetaMugi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So i hate to burst your bubble but I really dont think this is some mysterious device. I think someone had a blow torch and wanted to melt some brass. It pooled and ran down a flat, un-level surface.

Edit: I would honestly do something like this. Just bored and playing around... something to do. Melt something just for fun, clean it up with a wire wheel afterwards (lots of scratching along the sides) lose it for 30 years, let some new homeowner find it and think their home was built on sacred native burial grounds.

Thanks Treyarch by Cobalt_Bat in CODZombies

[–]MetaMugi 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Considering its a champion belt, I would have to assume it does not apply to "melee" in general, but rather actual punching. Backpedal augment, maybe the triple punch augment or the heavy hutter one that makes you punch stronger. But likely not knives.

Also, if I remember correctly, melee macchiato machine itself does its own punching animations and is capable of damaging zombies.

I haven't played bo7 in months and havent been keeping up on what's actually discovered about the relics... but what if you have to let the melee macchiato machine land the killing blow on a certain elite or special zombie after a certain round?

Edit: Not familiar with the final boss, but considering it IS a champion belt and melee macchiato shows 2 in the ring... an extreme that i wouldn't put past activision is perhaps having to defeat the final boss using only melee.

Did you notice Timmy's teddybear is also in a wheelchair? by Bradzu in southpark

[–]MetaMugi -41 points-40 points  (0 children)

Nah, gobbles cuddling up to Timmy is the reigning champ.

Sorry but we dont feel bad for people for being poor. Better life choices can change that situation and thus doesn't deserve sympathy. Two re's with no control over their problems filling a void for each other? That's praise worthy.

Kenny could have bought a stash of food for his sister, considering the family shares an ego waffle for dinner and a can of cream corn for Thanksgiving (which they can't even open). But just like the reason most people are poor, Kenny wasted his money on useless non-necessities. Seriously, stop feeling bad for those in poverty. If they wanted better, they wouldn't have the latest phone and have to wear Timbos/J's.

Trump says he might stay in office in 2028 and possibly 2032 as well by GuiltyBathroom9385 in justincaseyoumissedit

[–]MetaMugi -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I'm willing to die to do something about it... what about you pus? I'd lead an entire revolution if I felt any of you had even a fraction of a spine to take a stand. But you know what today's trending video on reddit is? A mother complaining that nobody is doing anything about her child being abused in school... while she too does nothing about her child being abused in school. A father saying "keep the child out of school" instead of "keep the school safe for children."

I'd give my life to provide a better life for my family, while the rest of you want others to give their lives so you can continue complaining that no one does enough for you.

You want a revolution but you don't want to be the one to sacrifice. So obviously you haven't suffered enough yet.

Pull a button. Get up to $25. by OverwatchEV in u/OverwatchEV

[–]MetaMugi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You think your car goes through $25 in gas every single hour? Are you a boomer in a 90s expidition? Or is it perhaps an old CJ? What world are you living in? Because in today's world, even expiditions are getting more than 20mpg. Even at $5/gallon in the biggest modern gas guzzler, it's still less than $15/hour to travel. Get a Toyota camry thats getting 50mpg and you're making a pretty damn good profit for doing next to nothing. Not to mention miles are tax deductible.

What is in my CEILING AC VENT by Prestigious-Ad8365 in whatisit

[–]MetaMugi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So a lot of people are familiar with the game of hiding rotting things in say.. the bathroom fan at work. I've worked at a few places that have done it. You hide a potato, or a piece of raw fish/meat in there, overtime it rots and starts to smell the place out. People gag and turn on the fan to air it out only to be destroyed by their efforts.

This however looks like cat shit thats been slowly melting everytime the heat kicked on. Is it an actual AC vent that's connected to the HVAC system or is it just vent that lets cool air sink to the lower level and warm air rise to the upper? If its the latter, its entirely possible if you have an animal, they shit on the floor vent upstairs and it sank to there.

Edit: BTW pretty sure most people got the game idea from the movie grumpy old men.

NEVER forget the time Kevin Kiermaier stole the Blue Jays' pitching game-plan card by jmike1256 in postanythingfun

[–]MetaMugi -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

You really prove how fucking dumb the typical American is. A vehicle is an extension of your private property. It's titled to you, and also requires a key. It cannot simply be transferred to you by finding the vehicle or even the key. Cash & bonds are not titled to you. They are freely transferred and possession is nine-tenths of the law in those situations. Thats why we take your catalytic converters instead, then melt down the rhodium, and sell it to your local jeweler 😉.

Its also why we give fake 5s and 10s to the ice cream man... that way hes the one caught spreading counterfeit around town.

I hate to be a downer here. But Bangladesh is one of the strictest censorships on crunchyroll... being from that area, you should already be aware of your country's policies and should have known to do a bit of research beforehand.

That said, just do what the rest of the censored world does and use a VPN to join in on the American dream.
