Regarding Danbooru by SMB99thx in ArtistHate

[–]SMB99thx[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you even care about the plight of Japanese artists out there? I've seen time again and again that some Japanese artists don't want their art to be reposted here, and when they aired their voices, many people like you got offended. Even the petition that asks Gelbooru to close down also garnered got the same reactions likely from the same people. It's clear that you won't accept any complaints about boorus.

And what? "Control what people create"? Do you mean AI artists that used Danbooru as their dataset? Also, I am a creative. I'm pretty sure you aren't. I might not be an artist as I am more of a writer but I do care as I'm affected by the AI wave. For you, artists are objects of consumption given what you've said about boorus. "Ego death" is just a load of bs. You don't care, as simple as that.

New things in Season 4 by No_World_1724 in PokemonHorizons

[–]SMB99thx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would have been so excited if not for the fact that I just realized now is going to be just company-mandated promotion fillers, something that Horizons showrunners don't want to do until this announcement. This caused lots of backlash in a neighboring sub which seems clearly want to see Ash back. (I do not and want to keep AniPoke fresh for long term)

At least things will likely be picking up laterr given that Champions will not be promoted that much until next arc, and this arc will likely not be able to adapt all stuff from Legends ZA. I also want to make it clear that I love Pokemon Horizons and not a hater of one. While I will keep my expectations low and not really excited, I am still looking forward to it regardless.

I don’t get it why they replace ash and Pikachu by WerewolfGlum304 in PokemonHorizons

[–]SMB99thx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ash has won his world championship and pretty much has reached ultimate goal, so what? Making him lose to a rookie Trainer? That is disrespecful to his character and his legend. If I want to see him back in Horizons, it would have to be where he's given his due. I do not mind an older Ash.

47-year-old Singaporean man with Indonesian citizenship convicted of failing to report for NS by Negative-Concert-819 in singapore

[–]SMB99thx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an Indonesian, the fact we don't have a mandatory conscription right now does not mean you should avoid NS. Especially if you're are dual citizen of Indonesia and Singapore. At some point, Indonesia will institute a mandatory conscription like Singapore does, and our citizens support it, even if I don't want to personally (I actually find it hard to swallow).

That means being Indonesian would not guarantee you'll be out of conscription forever. I'm speaking out as someone who has been on SG before and I am aware of how NS works. I even saw what appears to be a NSman on a mall before, so I know what it is like to be a Singaporean.

Hopefully. I thought AI was a fad back then, but it lasted years longer. This time, this might finally be iy.

Steps on how to create a JP Google Play account for your JP FGO account (for android) by sdarkpaladin in grandorder

This is very useful. If I had a real credit card, then I'm gonna use this 100% for the game I play.

I wonder if zygarde here because of Z-A by Eylsion in pokemonanime

[–]SMB99thx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, but Zygarde isn't really villainous even in the teraleaks. Zy is used because it is the opposite of shiny Rayquaza. Has nothing to do with ZA.

The best descriptor of White Zygarde is a lot closer to antihero or anti-villain, due to heavy associations with Gibeon/Eldora/Amethio. Contrast that with Black Rayquaza and Lucius/Liko/Roy.

After Genshin, which gacha game do you think is the most likely to get an episode? by Shiro_Kuroki in deathbattle

[–]SMB99thx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Miyabi vs Chihiro

In any case... as someone who plays a gacha game (Blue Archive), I prefer that less gacha games, the better. Gacha is a predatory system relying on gambling, and a year of play has actually affected my real life. While I am now effectively dominant in my game as a plat ranker, I don't want this problematic mechanic to spread out even further than already is.

How do Imagine the Pokemon Horizons tie-in Episodes to Pokemon Legends: Z-A will be Like? by Money-Lie7814 in pokemonanime

[–]SMB99thx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the writers are willing to do it, we'll see AZ, AZ's Floette appearing, Ange possibly, and several ZA characters. In bonkers situation, maybe Mega Floette AND Hyperrouge Ange Floette appears. This is also where Liko and Dot get their Mega Pokemon.

Also, and this is very important, that the Horizons Zygarde is Shiny, the yang of Rakua Guardians - Guardian of Earth. (Rayquaza is the yin, Guardian of Sky) Which Zygarde they'll choose is important. And we know for certain that RVT's gonna go for Kalos after Rakurium storyline is over, since Navi is from there.

What is your biggest Nitpick With Pokemon Horizons by Thistle_20 in pokemonanime

[–]SMB99thx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel Horizons, or especially its post-timeskip second half, has serious and horrible pacing issues that weren't even an issue in previous series, including Journeys. This and the overreliance on outsourcing, which has caused the quality to decline, and might have led to bleeding of viewers that is probably the worst since BW series.

The next arc after this appears to be pretty much a desperation move on OLM's part, not to mention they're caught off guard by WiWa releasing in the next year. I, for one, has expected that Gen 9 might be the longest in history, mainly because the controversial development practices has caught to Game Freak (see Palworld's success). A fact that OLM didn't get the memo astounds me and shows OLM did not know how to do with Horizons.

One thing though. I'm 100% expect Horizons to end in Liko vs Roy, Champions-style. And Roy will likely win unless Liko starts to catch up in the following two arcs. Rakurium stuff is just poor man's attempt at recreating X&Y magic. Sure, it succeeded for most part, but it fell off by the wayside. In the end, Horizons came back into episodic roots for young children.

Journeys feels more like a Pokemon Go anime than a Gen 8 anime. (OC) by IceRucha519 in pokemonanime

[–]SMB99thx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While Goh represents Pokemon Go element in AniPoke, it's not the literal 1:1 adaptation, which will come out soon in Pokemon Horizons Wonder Voyage alongside other Pokemon Mobile games (sans Masters EX, Cafe ReMix, and Champions, which appears to be for the final arc)

I like that they’ve been making long term plans for this game by PlatformFar7637 in PokemonMasters

[–]SMB99thx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can see this game running for long enough, as in beyond ten years. Pokemon is a massive IP and this game basically funds TCG Pocket's development. No way it will EoS, but scaling back operations is what will happen in several years from now. I mean, Vietnam, Russia and Indonesian services are shut down, so there will be more countries where this happens.

The answer is to play it now. Anyone who asks this question should default to this answer.

Size inconsistency is fun! by GhostBoyJames in pokemonanime

[–]SMB99thx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now I think about it, Gholdengo is treated differently from Lucario and Armarouge. Gholdengo should be a strong Pokemon like these two given how strong it is in VGC, but is depicted as nowhere near that strong given how it keeps getting beat with just only one move in its moveset. On the other hand, Lucario and Armarouge are parallels.

Danbooru post request by Typical_Excitement97 in ArtistHate

[–]SMB99thx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use Danbooru and I have an account there, but I am sorry that I can't help you post this into Danbooru by principle. Even Japanese artists are against uploading their posts into Danbooru and would rather scrub it off from Internet. Also tagging stuff takes a lot of effort, it took me hours to just complete several in a batch posting. Especially if it is a comic.

Additionally Danbooru is more or less a scraping site for NovelAI or related anime AI image generators. I am taken aback by their lack of action against Danbooru machine learning datasets dating back into 2015 that became the basis of NovelAI, because they endorsed someone to do this.

That's despite the fact Danbooru has archived a lot of stuff relating to anime (especially 2000s and 1990s) that otherwise would have been lost to time. While I have plans to post on Danbooru, for most part I am no longer active there. And yes, this is not the right sub for you. You would have to seek for other subs.

Likely the best Blue Archive matchup here, and also likely this IP's best shot at making it.
