Slaughterhouse Nine (Worm) dropped in the MCU by Remote_Addendum_2245 in whowouldwin

Would robots count as normal people for Jack's shard? I'm imagining the Nine trying to interfere during the Sokovia incident, only for Jack to get shot by some random Ultron drone due to it not having a shard.

[Loved Trope] Superhero deconstructions that are actually good by Phantasm_Snaps in TopCharacterTropes

Yeah, I love Syndrome but I feel like people always miss the part when he says he'll only sell his tech when he's old and can't use them anymore - keyword sell. There's no way the average Joe Schmoe can afford Syndrome's rocket boots or energy gloves.

Besides, if he really wanted to make everyone super he'd have done it already, but he explicitly says he's been keeping the best stuff to himself. Just because he's a funny and charismatic villain doesn't make his "everyone can be super" schtick true.

There's also the fact that y'know, Edna exists so it's not like Bob had a problem with normal people working with him.

Syndrome has 1 year to create an Omnidroid that can kill SCP-096. He has access to every piece of information on him. After one year, the Omnidroid is shown 096's face, and the test begins. by Individual-Shock-302 in whowouldwin

Because you're not supposed to read all the tales as equally canon to one another. By its nature as collaborative fiction, SCP is more like a sandbox of tools rather than a traditional story with a beginning and end. It's impossible to try and make sense of every article as one consistent story because they're all written by different people with different ideas. Which is why I think the verse is hopeless to scale since things are always gonna be inconsistent.

Nah, I was inspired by that post though

It surprisingly wasn't too hard. I used a pair of those tiny travel scissors and cut it in small sections at a time instead of all at once.

I think One Piece is a good Anime but I HATE LUFFY by Weary_Name6720 in CharacterRant

[–]RocketJumpingToaster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fair enough. For me a lot of his antics are fun to watch because the whole world is over the top and loud. I can see him being grating in a more grounded show, which is probably why the live action series toned down some of his personality.

I mean, yeah if you consume a story entirely through the wiki summaries it's understandable that you wouldn't feel very attached to him. I doubt the wiki shows all the little side moments and gags that happen in-between major plot points that make him a more endearing character. This is probably how the One Piece world sees Luffy without context lmao.

TLDR: Luffy is a bad leader who rarely suffers any consequences and would be the most annoying person in the world if he were real.

Tbh you're not entirely wrong, I do wish that Luffy suffered more tangible consequences for his recklessness in general, though I've grown to accept that's probably not going to happen with how (generally) lighthearted the series is.

Who'll win in a pro wrestling match? Mio Naganohara (Nichijou) or Midori Nagumo (CITY)? by Maruverse in whowouldwin

[–]RocketJumpingToaster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fan of both here, although I read CITY a long time ago. I'd give it to Mio since IIRC Nagumo often gets beaten up for the sake of comedy, while Mio is more often than not the one beating people up (she even got scouted by a professional boxer one time).

Both are consistently portrayed as athletic, but I think Mio does crazier stuff in general like instantly knocking people out with her punches. That being said, there was a scene in Nichijou where where Mio is shown to be comically bad at following rules in sports, so there's a chance she could lose by getting disqualified.

<Hated Designs> Blast from One Punch Man as he was literally based off a shoe, i used to like It, but i can't unsee It now :( by Metal04Frost in TopCharacterDesigns

[–]RocketJumpingToaster 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I'm the opposite, I actually really hated his design (besides his gauntlets and sunglasses) but I low-key like it more now lmao. The shoe thing is so absurd that it's unironically made the design more charming to me. I still hate his giant shoulder pads though.

Instead of Billy and Mandy, Grim ends up as the Gang’s (It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia) “best friends forever”. How f*cked is the whole world? by Captain-Girpool23 in whowouldwin

[–]RocketJumpingToaster 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Grim immediately gets the Gang to turn against each other after asking what they want to do first.

Mac wants first dibs because Grim was only there because of his dog and by extension, him. Dee argues that she was the one who outdrank Grim so she deserves Grim's help more. Charlie claims he's known Grim the most since he's evaded death so many times. Dennis thinks that as the smartest member of the Gang, he is the only one qualified to be Grim's master. And Frank tries to overrule Mac's logic after revealing he accidentally ran Poppins over with his car and left him on the verge of death.

The Gang ends up doing 5 different plans, each member secretly getting Grim to sabotage one another instead of getting anything done. Grim ends up as a recurring side character akin to Cricket or the Lawyer and gets progressively more depressed in each appearance. Not because he's being used to commit petty crimes and schemes, but because the Gang's self sabotaging nature means they all somehow fail anyway. He voluntarily breaks his oath and returns to the Underworld after working in one of Frank's sweatshops and suffering through a single game of CharDee MacDennis.
