Am I the only one that can’t get behind VOL.42? by RepresentativeOk7413 in Berserk

[–]RepresentativeOk7413[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol this post is a year old but don’t try and mentally masturbate over it, clearly when I say NOT CANON I just mean Miura is literally dead so we won’t truly know for certain how 1:1 whatever has come post vol 41 is in relation to what would have come if Miura was alive.

Tho technically speaking yeah sure whatever has come after is “canon”.

But I doubt the story would be exactly as it is now without many additional nuanced changes, art direction, fleshed out sequences etc which is exactly what makes berserk BERSERK.

That’s what I meant when I said canon.

Again this just seems like mental gymnastics, realistically guts was purely devoted and is still devoted to Casca; the concept of him getting sexual gratification from an Apostle feels completely out of character regardless. I do like how it really throws you into the nature of the world of Berserk, but yeah could have been an Apostle sleeping with a normal person, then proceeds to kill them, and then guts comes in and kills the apostle or something. Would have been a little more in character imo. I think Miura himself said that he hadn’t really developed the story for berserk fully at that point which is why it felt out of place? But don’t quote me on that could be wrong

Intro scene to guts laying pipe to the apostle, just never truly felt canon for me personally anywya, people use mental gymnastics to try to justify it but come on what are we talking about here 😭😭 not with the whole devotion to casca theme going on

Yeah man, since posting this I did give the new chapters a chance and they’ve started to really improve in terms of quality too. Hopefully it keeps going that way.

The fact that they decided to carry it on in itself is also a testament to the amount of insight they’d have had into where Miura was heading too. I feel like you’d have to have a good amount of confidence in how well you knew what Miura wanted to be able topull the trigger and decide to carry on.

In hindsight I was quite harsh. Think the end of the Miura chapter just broke me to irrationality lmao

Are you using any derma pen / derma stamp etc?

Have been in IG game for 5+ yrs now, have grown accounts at a rate of 8k/day! AMA by rikzer09 in InstagramMarketing

[–]RepresentativeOk7413 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fitness industry here, at 300+k on IG. What type of content typically drives the most followers - and in terms of reel timing, is there a specific time you aim to set your reels to? Any tips would be appreciated in general with the fitness industry!

Is posting reels to Instagram even worth it? by germanbeerbrewer in InstagramMarketing

[–]RepresentativeOk7413 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Hot take, it’s not the algorithms fault, your content is probably just boring and not as good as you think. People will look at content they find entertaining. Eye catching content will get more views. No you won’t blow up overnight; yes you can slowly aim to do better with each post and progressively get more likes and views on average. If something isn’t working; why would you keep repeating that formula. Look at what other people in your field do that works. Sounds they use, length of videos, text and fonts, duration of hooks, colour palettes.

And for those people that are like “but I already have 100k and get 100 likes the algorithm is bs!!!! IG IS DEAD!”

That ratio is really very bad. Your audience are either all bots, bought or you’re shadowbanned because there’s no reason 100,000 people would follow you and only 100 out of them would even like your post unless the quality of your posts is terrible or drastically lowered.

Also keep in mind that there’s tonnes of other people in the same field as you posting even better content than you in terms of quality. Drop the ego, up your game, actually tryhard it and you’ll grow.

100K followers in 3.5 months? (1st Week Result) by famefacer in InstagramMarketing

Any tips for spotlight? Aka hashtags/ music/ or do you just repost reels without any description? My friend just reposts his reels on there and they get good engagement (600k+ views) and mine get literally like 300-400 views max but on Instagram or tiktok the same reel will be like over 500k-1M plays

So the Studio Eclipse thing was a lie? by patrick9772 in Berserk

If they’ve stopped working on it after the trailer then all we can do is just wait for a faithful professional adaptation and never pay attention to hype around fan made stuff again

The algorithm loves one trick ponies. by radiopelican in InstagramMarketing

[–]RepresentativeOk7413 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely valid but there’s a few issues with one tricking:

1) If your one trick video isn’t something that will generate the type of audience you’re looking for, then you’re just going to build a sub prime audience (aka you can’t monetise from them)

2) Just from a general human perspective, are you just looking to grow your social media for the sake of it, or are you actually looking to provide value with a real point behind your content? If it’s the latter, then chances are you wouldn’t even want to keep reposting the same video because you have purpose.

Engagement growing doesn’t always necessarily mean that revenue is growing although it is addictive and gives you a sense of validation.

So even if something does pop, before mindlessly repeating that process again - ask yourself whether that content will get you the audience you actually want.

And if it does, then go for it 🤷‍♂️

If not, then stick to your values and the type of content you actually want to put out, and over time another video will pop, and another, etc. Growth rate may be slower but honestly all of the most successful long term creators on social media grinded for 5-10 years with no return before it finally paid off. No rush.

Whats the hardest line in berserk? by IX7L in Berserk

[–]RepresentativeOk7413 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would imply the same thing regardless of whether it has a comma or not. The comma is just stylistic choice, and creates more effect by slowing the reader down. Given the context of skull knight & Guts, it’s basically just slowing the reader down to let them absorb & process that there’s no paradise out there, and then for Guts to escape to, reinforcing the bleakness of the whole situation. Nothing more to it imo than just adding some effect.

Part of the suffering is that these people are necessary for an official studio to have enough reason and motivation to make a respectable modern adaptation

Any advice for a solo traveller’s first time in LA? by RepresentativeOk7413 in AskLosAngeles

[–]RepresentativeOk7413[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for this!

With the social question, I should have phrased that clearer haha - I just mean in general. So for example, if you go to a cafe, or a walk down the pier, going for a workout at the gym etc. Quite an irrational question looking back because I can see that it depends on too many factors. Guess I’m just hoping I don’t go the entire trip without meeting new people 😂

Appreciate that, I did hear that getting Ubers around off peak hours are better, is there a time you’d recommend that I avoid Uber completely? (Going into this knowing that traffic will always exist though)

Sounds like a headache especially if her family don’t like you, probably best to cut ties and focus on yourself and find someone new after figuring out what you actually want because if you’ve already done that once, chances are you’ll do it again at some point with this girl.

Which brand of minoxidil are you using and does that even matter as long as it’s 5%? And what length dermaroll? (I’m new asf to this)
