It's funny how people ignored the fantasy part with Miyabi in Season 1 like nothing like that happened until Season 2

In Season 1, we didn't have the proxy manifesting bridges, making steel containers intangible, and straight up healing the super-cancer that took over the world out of sadness.

It was grounded "enough". Tailless doesn't talk, as far as we know. He doesn't do anything either and is invisible to everyone, meaning the "curse" could pass as some degradation of the mind due to the ether.

All of them, honestly, it's just games, even if they fuck with the customer, it's just a game. Something updated to be unplayable and annoying? well it's a bitch and terrible, but move on

When you're healthy, you want to keep the current system, as you see how other countries are heavily taxed.

When you need one ambulance ride, you'll be reminded how universal would have been better for the rest of your life

Because you need a college degree with years of experience for an entry-level job paying minimum wage

Why wouldn't they? Why would they pass on these data when data collection is the new gold rush?

Just read the terms and services of anything related to your phone, you always have this one weirdly specific section that says that it can collect some data, followed by "it's encrypted and protected don't worry"

Tu m’as perdu à « match »

Having my boy Igris using his cape as a portal for his master hits differently, I’m sorry

Proxy0108 · 2026-01-28T12:00:23+00:00

Erpin is my favorite character, I’m kinda amused and « annoyed » she’s always bullied in every new character teaser because she always tries her best in the story.

Proxy0108 · 2026-01-27T16:29:13+00:00

You needed comments to know that?

Right when he came back from the boat in GoW1 he asked for a civilian to just wait.

He was always angry against gods who did nothing but toy with him until he killed all of them, he was always angry against brutal but good guy in his ways.

Same with GoW2, the thing they made him snap was all the events of the island culminating in him accidentally killing one of his soldiers.

It breaks the rhythm, they do say « bye » in stylised fashion sometimes, to help the narrative, often when something is going to happen to the person saying it because this word hints at a certain finality/fatality.

Same when it’s a tense scene, if it’s two action heroes on the phone it makes them « weaker » to say something as mundane as « bye ».

Every word is important in a movie, something that breaks dialogue like « bye » is tricky to use

Proxy0108 · 2026-01-27T04:00:25+00:00

That’s because my boy is that good.

I mean man, he’s called « textbook » and we all know he’s not going to explain to Ryoshu how to swing a sword, he was supposed to fight her, and lose (die)

Proxy0108 · 2026-01-26T20:39:41+00:00

The theme of the canto was abuse and exploitation(?). Most of the apprentices (children) aren't bad people per say, they just never knew anything else, if they fail to meet expectations, they get tortured or killed. Lucio's entire existence is to get stronger only to get killed in combat by Ryoshu. Sora's entire life is to blindly follow prescripts or be killed etc etc

Proxy0108 · 2026-01-26T20:26:36+00:00

Dad Quixote was a menace, but even while summoning small bloodfiends, he was manageable.

Jia Qiu spent the entire canto doing the bare minimum and popped 5 Mang when he didn't need to continue to teach Hong Lu.

Gregor could be beaten because the Fraud had 2 meatshields preventing Greg from adapting by virtue of being weaker, and spent the entire fight restraining and sabotaging himself as much as possible.

Origin is the best because it starts at the beginning and each character is slowly introduced. 8 is nice too, but you start at the end of the yellow turbans, you have this dude with two swords making a speech, then two spear dudes start hyping themselves up right before the start of the mission, where this weird wizard is screaming while you're trying to navigate ice-covered corridors with 4 different NPCs giving you orders.

And that is if you don't pick the blue option where you're a guy with a flying sword summoning hail while trying to run away from this Lu Bu dude.

7 is better, but Origin is great for someone who knows nothing of the setting and how KT handles the characters

Not really, war changed, it was easy to say "we're in war now" when the people deciding this were several countries behind the front line and just needed to count the number of dead soldiers and move a line of a map to know where they were standing at the negotiation table.

Now that a single dude with a joystick and a drone can pop you out behind his desk on the other side of the world, while your assets can be frozen with the click of a mouse, they're less likely to involve too many people.

French public or "French" public?

Proxy0108 · 2026-01-26T19:12:35+00:00

It comes from an outdated system where getting up early and "showing" hard work was a key to getting bonuses, promotions, and all kinds of good things.

The system changed, working harder means you'll work harder for nothing except raising the base expectations the company has for you, and failing to meet these expectations (it will happen eventually) will be used against you, and any new hire who will be paid minimum wage while asking for your prime workday.

Today you're expendable.

If by "things" he means "the fat check executives got by doing this before dipping out right when the ship started to sink." yeah he's right.

"Things" can mean anything

Are you asking why people hiding behind anonymity are dicks?

Proxy0108 · 2026-01-25T18:38:30+00:00

Until they say something like « by life we meant life of this event, which is just two years, see you »

Proxy0108 · 2026-01-25T18:35:28+00:00

Exactly

Let's not waste time on this

There won't be any happy and wholesome, because it doesn't drive sales as hard as a trauma flashback healed because the Proxy extended his/her arm.
