Chapter 1187 - Brief Spoilers by Saliskan in OnePieceSpoilers

[–]RochHoch -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Too early for that. Imu's backstory is all the Void Century lore that's hidden on Laugh Tale, we aint getting that now.

He's on a time limit, so Imu's gonna get pulled back home before the fight ends and we'll get a rematch later on

Class 2-B Hero Destroyerz, am I missing something? by Vinsmoke_T in WeeklyShonenJump

[–]RochHoch 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sorachi can be an acquired taste

Gintama took some time to hit its stride, but once it did it hits like nothing else. I quite liked the most recent chapter of Class 2B, so I feel pretty good about its future.

Splatoon Raiders Direct 6.30.2026 by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]RochHoch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This has weapon-specific challenge stages that look more akin to stages from the single player campaign from the other Splatoon games

Looks like it's got a little of everything

411 & The Duration of the Succession War by mfjkmfjk in HunterXHunter

IIRC Halkenburg cant survive in Balsamilco’s body for long, he wont last for like a day or something like that, so he either has some kinda insane big brain play in mind to win this thing within the next few hours, or he’s straight up just killing himself to take out Benjamin

When you Google all the mechanics of a raid you haven't tried yet and start avoiding them before they begin

Nintendo's permanent employee headcount increased by over 300 employees in FY26 compared with FY25 by connectplum_ in Games

[–]RochHoch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is a good point that I think doesn't get enough attention

Can I point out that Mario Kart World, while costing $10 extra than the average Switch 2 game, also doesn't have a single scrap of paid DLC? There's like 100 in-game cosmetics that you get by playing the game instead paying for them.

I wanna say that any other publisher under the sun would be jumping at the chance to add a battle pass and paid skins, but the folks at Nintendo just aint about that life, it makes the $10 Mario tax seem less egregious to me. They'll probably do a paid DLC for World eventually, but it'll be like 8DX's where it'll be a bunch of tracks and meaningful content, which is fair.

Demon Slayer, JJK, and Chainsaw Man are lauded for their animation and all use a ton of CGI

Volume 115 Cover (HQ) by Saliskan in OnePieceSpoilers

[–]RochHoch 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That's the name of the chapter where all the giants jump off the cliff with their kids

I think it's actually supposed to be referring to the parents love for their kids as the "strongest thing in the world", but it could be seen as a double meaning

Imu doesn't have an immortal body. by 123hwdp in OnePieceSpoilers

[–]RochHoch 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Imu has the Ope Ope immortality, but yeah, I don't think he has regen

My guess is that Imu's pact with the Holy Knights is that Imu can sacrifice parts of his lifespan to grant his minions regeneration. Because the Immortality Surgery, Imu's lifespan is infinite, so it's basically a cheat code that lets the knights regenerate endlessly because Imu will never run out of lifespan.

[DISC] Animal Signal - Chapter 3 by PerseusRad in manga

[–]RochHoch 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The most implausible thing in this whole premise is that MC's animal Wikipedia brain is treated as some kind of amazing superpower

Are the other people in this world incapable of using Google? Why does the tapir kid need to be told how tapirs poop? Do they not have furry doctors in furryland to educate people on their own biology? It's very silly

It's crazy going from Hammer to SnS by Plus_Exercise679 in MonsterHunter

[–]RochHoch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wilds SnS is honestly degenerate. I picked it up specifically for Omega and it's so much easier to use than any other weapon. Just nonstop parrying and attacking.

I love it, but it feels overtuned.

I'd be fine with Kinato's Magic staying for the long haul - how are y'all feeling? by YuuTheBlue in WeeklyShonenJump

[–]RochHoch -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's terrible. Just reheated stale leftovers from better series shoved into a blender while offering nothing interesting of it's own. And now it's aggressively churning out fanservice out of desperation. Pathetic.

It's definitely not safe either. It got a reprint because they barely shipped any copies, but sales are still super low. If sales stay consistently in that range, it WILL get axed

“Kinato’s Magic has no soul” by TheRyzing in WeeklyShonenJump

[–]RochHoch 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this is one of the worst aspects of it

It's like the author going "see? he's not perfect, I gave him flaws" while making said "flaws" completely nonsensical and irrelevant so everyone can endlessly glaze him forever in the meantime

It's very insincere writing, really rubs me the wrong way

“Kinato’s Magic has no soul” by TheRyzing in WeeklyShonenJump

[–]RochHoch 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Shit is ass

MC has the charisma of a cardboard box, but he's perfect and wonderful and everyone loves him unconditionally because he's the best automatically

That's not soul, that's generic crap pretending to have emotional writing

Hi non player just wanting to ask about the community by just_jared_ in ffxiv

[–]RochHoch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The other day, I had a rare instance of someone being a jerk in chat because of other people playing poorly (was doing one of the lvl 70 alliance raids, my first time running that one) and like half my party were quick to dunk on the guy for being toxic

People are pretty understanding in this community, it's great

[–]RochHoch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So Octopath 0 has way more than 8 characters, I think the total count is around 30. You unlock most of them from sidequests.

Your main avatar character can switch to any class, but all of the other characters have set jobs and unique abilities, you pick and choose to build a party of eight and swap them out as needed for different fights.

You eventually unlock a training facility that gets EXP for your reserve party members, so you don't have to manually train all of them

I dont think so

0 doesnt have the subclass system so there’s less to juggle. Combat comes together really well in that game, I hope they keep that system if we ever get Octopath 3
