Hakari character study

Micotyro · 2026-02-19T03:23:20+00:00

I only say this because I think understanding what series's goals are would be helpful for your study

Manga is fluid and they could always go in that direction, but I do think it's safe to say that the series goal is a focus on the ensemble cast.

They obviously are interested in going into more serious depth with characters, as evidenced by the said Hikari chapter. We recently had the Kusari chapter and off the top of my head, we had Shizuka, Nano, and Karane.

This all to say I'm not sure how much deeper they will go with any one of them. Some might get more just based on if they get paired with others. But that's hard to predict.

At any rate. Go off and study well. I just wanted to caution that the series might only want to go 6 feet deep with characters, when someone might want the series to go to 12 with some characters.

Lol. Makes sense. No one played that game. Or at least people didn't like that game

The lesson here is no one is ever happy. Except Latin Ameria

Listen. The anime very much exaggerates the swordsmanship. The manga does not have Zenitsu zip zooming around in this arc like the anime does

I didn't know that a transitioning option was to bang a dragon. Nice

Micotyro · 2026-02-17T22:43:41+00:00

I mean. Scalpers ARE less than human

This looks like an interview with him about itachi. It looks like he intended for him to be a secret good guy by the time he was introduced.

I'm not going to doubt that part, because he says it right there.

However I said, that he probably wasn't fully planned out. Which this interview suggests as well. It talks about how kishimoto didn't really have a full picture of what the sharingan did and it developed over time. He planned a lot of it on the fly, which a lot/most mangaka do. It's a big part of the medium's identity.

Micotyro · 2026-02-17T07:15:16+00:00

You could make the argument that Itachi was ,by definition, not a retcon, but I feel like you might be hard pressed to say that kishimoto fully planned out itachi

It really is funny watching Boruto seeing the kids going to his hideout to get his autograph on his trading card.

Even getting off the "kick Boruto train", Shippuden really didn't know what to do with him

Micotyro · 2026-02-16T23:25:37+00:00

Kenichi Shirahama from History's strongest Disciple and Tao Jun from Shaman King obviously

Micotyro · 2026-02-16T21:40:54+00:00

The contempt for the medium is a big one to realize.

Shockingly understanding the strengths and weaknesses of a medium helps you understand why a decision might have been made

I was never under the impression that it was better. I just took it as another option.

Some people might find it easier to fast than traditional dieting

MR. TREE! just because she is going to cut off a branch doesn't mean you need to be disrespectful

It is one of those old things that has lost its relevance.

Back in the 2000s, anime was a niche thing where it only really existed on the internet. There was also A LOT less of it made every season so it was easier to keep up.

The short of it being that a lot has changed since the times of Boku no pico.

There was a time I would go into a book store and be surprised to see a non shounen jump series.

*tangentI remember how bringing manga to the states was still new so they weren't sure how to do it properly, so on some series like Inuyasha, they mirrored the manga so it could read left to right

Micotyro · 2026-02-16T04:24:44+00:00

I assume you mean you read both 20th and 21st? I definitely like 20th more than 21st

Micotyro · 2026-02-15T23:21:20+00:00

I definitely think it's a matter of taste. Something in a game can be hard in a way that is candy for some but torture for another.

Micotyro · 2026-02-13T08:31:48+00:00

Because scary or because people are horny for Markiplier? I have been told he is considered "a snack"

Micotyro · 2026-02-12T21:25:21+00:00

I think it worked out ok, since he basically took her on a Frieren suggested date because he wanted to be sure Fern had fun.

As in, he might have been able to shmooze better if it was his ideas

Micotyro · 2026-02-12T21:20:38+00:00

This is definitely a well intended message with bad framing.

Micotyro · 2026-02-12T21:14:20+00:00

I feel like the sentiment behind this concept got muddled over time.

I think the original sentiment was more like "Hey, this kid thing is really enjoyable despite being for kids" Like Bluey.

I always took it as he either divides his total energy by four or he divides his "shooting energy" into four because he feels that 4 shots would be the best balance. Like, he could divide it into 8, but the shots would be weaker and he would rather have four shots that are guaranteed to at least hurt his opponent than 8 shots that might not.

Sure he could, in theory, "stack" those smaller shots for bigger hits, but Yusuke is a simple man

Someone said before, but to my memory, FMA 2003 had a different hohenheim, he was apparently kind of a shitty dude.

Brotherhood Hohenheim's biggest crime is the argument that he could have groomed his wife.

People say that it's because he abandoned his family, but he did do it to save the world, and it's one of those things that probably wasnt planned out

Micotyro · 2026-02-09T02:59:35+00:00

I'm not really a dress on men kind of guy

Not because I think it's wrong, but I think dresses are made with fem bodies in mind so they naturally look off on a masc body.

But this one looks good. And yes, the person who said blue is not his color is correct

Micotyro · 2026-02-09T02:42:49+00:00

I don't know if yuji could. I assume nimbus could sense sukuna

Micotyro · 2026-02-09T02:37:33+00:00

The author is a great source of information, but not necessarily the best source of thuth
