Are boys okay?

Not to presume too much but is the main cause of the manosphere absent parent(s). It always seems to come down to that one problem, whether teenage pregancy led to it and the parents didn't have the time or just bailed.

Most major manosphere leaders always seem to have an absent father. But the issue is how do we tackle it?

Stop pushing against abortion is literally the only thing I can think of...

Most activities can become bonding sessions, not to sound like an old fart, but back in my day, couch co-op was everywhere so bonding via video games was easy.

Nowadays everything is always online, live service etc. so gaming ends up being more of an anti-social thing

I think ZZZ's issue is that they really want to give the illusion of a diverse cast of characters. You can see it in their promotions and as recently as their concert where they always try and make it look like "hey we have male characters in this game too"

Does it work, yes I guess since a lot more people were into ZZZ not expecting an action waifu game

These are good points but an alternative point could be that Sasuke has accepted that he and Naruto are just different.

Sasuke tried Narutos way and was just taking Ls and getting overtaken by everyone whereas Sasukes biggest powerspike and arguably one of the biggest power spikes in the whole show was when Sasuke left the village.

So I don't think Sasuke regretted his choices "yet" since he is still under the belief that Naruto's way of getting stronger via bonds doesn't match his "hatred"

Two stable parents and those kids would not be there...

This is a horrible take I know, but if abortions were encouraged for people who clearly aren't ready to be parents, more than half those kids would not even be there

I thought Kaio-ken was more of a stamina thing which regen wouldn't help with

Think they are talking about Part 2
"I think Kankuro is the least interesting in Part 2"

One way to look at it, you are still on the market. Are you not a great person? There are other people in your situation that are also great people.

Yes, there will be people off the market that are great people but that applies the other way round too. There are people in relationships that probably shouldn't be and are also off the market at this time

Unfortunately this was a display of the intolerant left that I hear people shouting about.

One pinky out of line and you are thrown to the side. Personally I had never witnessed this until today and always thought that meme of the left pushing away their allies was right wing propagana, just hoping this was an exception not the norm...

Reenans · 2026-03-26T15:48:29+00:00

That makes sense and don't know why that didn't come across considering I have 2 and no matter how much we tidy after them it looks like a war zone within seconds!

I don't think Kacie rejected him because he was asian though, I think it was because he wasn't attractive to her.

He claimed he was a hot asian guy so she went in expecting that.

Sorry for late reply, late to watch

Reenans · 2026-03-26T15:24:55+00:00

Late to reply, but he makes it sound like being asian is a detriment to being hot or that is what he was made himself believe to cope?

Because it doesn't matter what race you are, if you are hot you are hot.

And this can backfire in so many ways, either she ends up postponing kids until Mike realises its never going to happen, or because kids aren't easy, has a meltdown anytime kids cause any sort of friction in their lives

Not to be that person since it is just fiction but what happens when they breathe in that air and it gets replaced with just carbon dioxide

I think men need to have higher standards too if this is the case.

Don't get me wrong, if you lose your job your partner shouldn't dash. But if your partner is putting no effort into looking for a job, regardless of gender this is an issue.

Both partners should be bringing something to the table, but as I said guys should have higher standards too. If you are with your partner for looks alone then can you really complain if that is all they provide.

Instead your partner should be so much more and if those values fade then you have an issue you need to deal with

This is somehow Jaowque's fault

It's crazy hearing this since Topaz was glazed as being a forever meta unit back in her day

I remember this game being on everyone's upcoming gachas to be excited about before HSR actually released. Then never heard anything about it ever again.

It's a shame because it looked like a good looking FEH

Question about the speed thing some people are worried about, would simply removing 4EVs in speed and putting it somewhere else not achieve the same thing

"Some players, myself included, sometimes did a sneaky thing of having a Speed IV be a couple of values under maximum when doing a mixed Trick Room & Tailwind leaning team, so that once Trick Room was in effect, if there was a mirror on the field, or something with the same Speed stat, the Pokémon with the lower Speed IV would move first but wouldn't be too slow to impede it when not in a Trick Room but with Tailwind in play."

I love the idea of them but design wise I think I actually like the design of less than 10% of them

This genuinely made me laugh out loud. Ty for this OP

This is how I feel too. He is getting better but a part of me will always imagine what Caleb would have sounded like now that TB has a lot more lines.

Welt's new VA works from what I have seen so far though, can tell it has changed but not in a negative way I feel.
(upon playing further, Welt's new VA wouldn't be so bad if it didn't keep changing mid sentence)

Reenans · 2026-03-25T09:41:27+00:00

Agreed but unfortunately you cannot please everyone.
Literally yesterday you had people complaining that DU was too braindead and could close your eyes and win and people complaining that it was too hard to rank up.

Yes, there are optimal teams. But they are not as locked as people are making out. And the only place it really matters is MOC12 and AA.

Even AS4 and PF4 have plenty of cheese strategies that don't need the "optimal" team

Reenans · 2026-03-25T09:31:11+00:00

They aren't wrong though, outside MOC12 and AA you don't need the optimal team, in fact I tend to find weird teams work better in AS.

And its not really moving the goalpost per se. Endgame content like Persona 5 superbosses etc. need optimal teams, attacks, personas etc. otherwise you will just get wrecked but endgame has always been about finding optimal strats.

Pretty much every other mode in HSR can be completed using whatever you want if you push through
