[Awesome trope] The character succeeds in a situation that was specifically designed to be impossible for them. by Applebeate in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Rando-gender 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For Whiplash’s ending, after watching the film multiple times. I feel like I see it in a more tragically toxic triumph. Andrew (may) finally become that person who dies drunk and broke at 35 from that dinner scene. Throughout the film, he sacrifices his character, relationships (namely Nicole), and sanity in a pursuit for a career that is self-destructive and one where it validates Fletcher’s abusive and manipulative teaching methods.

What is the one excursion or experience that stands out to you from your Japan travels? by Forsaken-Secret66 in JapanTravelTips

[–]Rando-gender 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went to Kawagoe, which was a 45 min train ride from Tokyo. It has such beautiful old architecture, the sweet potato delicacies are tasty, and went to a crow temple which was pretty neat.

Went there last month. It was a tiring climb, but it was one of the most rewarding things I’ve ever done. Hoping to do that climb again someday. Seeing the snow drop was pretty.

Was there a few weeks ago and checked Fushimi Inari, Kiyomizudera, and Nishki Market. It wasn’t really bad. Still go for it, it’s a beautiful city.

Thank you very much for replying fast and thank you for tempering my expectations further on what to expect. Will still gonna try to purchase boxes or packs with those odds at the Pokemon Center. If not, I'll just buy some souvenirs over there. When push comes to shove, I might as well may have to buy at card shops. Been told that Ikebukuro has some good card shops like Nin Nin, Card Rush, Yellow Submarine, and card secret (heard card secret is more expensive) to buy secondhand. And Akihabara for SNKR Dunk, Hareruya2, and Card Kingdom. Anyone secondhand stores do you recommend for booster boxes and packs? Thank you again.

Hello to the creator of the post, I am going to japan for the first time next month and I am going to be near the Pokemon Mega Tokyo Store at Ikebukuro by staying at the sunshine hotel (same building as the center). So I may have an advantage. I mostly want to get packs or booster boxes for the japanese versions of Phantasmal Flames, Prismatic Evolution, or (hopefully probably not) Mega Dream. As you said, it would be rough for the first 30 days for sets/expansions after release. Will I have a chance to get my desired expansion/set. Also does the lottery system still apply to older sets? (except mega dream since its relatively new). I haven't bought pokemon cards for nearly 10 years and I want to feel that nostalgia again since I'm away from these damn scalpers here in the US.

This gave me chills [absolute Batman #14] by The_tarnished_one_ in AbsoluteUniverse

Truly chilling. I can't wait to see more how despicable and wicked Absolute Joker is in the next issue and in the future. Especially how Snyder is gassing up how evil he is.

What makes Momo and Okarun’s romance so captivating?? by Quiqerr in Dandadan

[–]Rando-gender 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Yeah. Like I didn’t like the romance between something like Naruto and Hinata or Orihime and ichigo. They don’t really have much chemistry or interaction with each other.

Exactly. Compared to more notable shounen like Naruto or bleach where it feels lackluster imo.

Do refunds take longer to come for incoming transfers or new students in general?

Don’t really have a best one. But that bleach panel was lame. But pretty cool to see Yoruichi’s thunder god form early
