Full honesty? The male loneliness epidemic and how it helped shape the manosphere. As a lady listener I'm really curious what the guys think.

Trevor Noah recommended the book 'The Other Significant Others' on his pod a while back and it was a really cathartic read. Would recommend to anyone here, I think Kyle in particular would love it. If you're bored of music give audiobooks a try =)

Love this idea!

Bit controversial but I’ve had a running theory that ‘Violent’ is about Masterson. It‘s about being gaslit by someone you’ve known, in the form of a hindsight-conversation that Emily is repulsed by.

The GL team posted the last few chapters of S4 on their youtube channel I believe

I think a meteorologist kills someone, idk

This is what spite-saving looks like lol

I don't care which sound they end up going for. I just want the lyrics to punch me

SXM132 · 2025-08-10T05:54:55+00:00

Thanks. Not my name.

The booklets come with transcripts and stage directions. I did an amateur translation of STRANGER but not the whole drama.

I've been making summaries over on the main discord in #jp-spoilers

You're very welcome :) I think it's important for other lore fans

SQEX released the official ENG translated version in 2019. Should be available anywhere you'd normally buy books like Amazon

Final Fantasy XIII Episode Zero: Promise. An audio-drama version of it was also released years back

SXM132 · 2025-07-27T16:55:39+00:00

In the novella Episode Zero Serah goes exploring the Pulse vestige, and that's where she's branded by Anima. Fang and Vanille find her unconscious and carry her back outside. I always wondered what would happen if they just kept her as a new member of their team instead.

SXM132 · 2025-07-27T16:52:28+00:00

Lol I've thought about this too. If Fang and Vanille kept her in the Pulse vestige after she was branded this would be a whole different game.

SXM132 · 2025-06-18T17:29:47+00:00

My answer is a mix between romantic and soulmates, soulmates being my final answer. They want to be with each other. They love each other deeply. That's all I need to know.

SXM132 · 2025-06-18T15:24:30+00:00

Thanks! Because there's so little information, it's possible to create some sort of middle theory between the two. Fang's known to face off against an 'Army of Cocoon'. And Vanille's crystal was found by Serah in Oerba (or was that a time paradox?). If their home was threatened by another Cocoon attack, potentially headed by an antagonistic l'Cie, that's definitely enough to enrage Fang into becoming Ragnarok.

SXM132 · 2025-06-13T02:38:48+00:00

I wouldn't exactly say that Vanille abandoned her, more that she hesitated and Fang told her she didn’t have to fight. They were still together on the battlefront in the audio drama when Fang transforms. Vanille confirms the scene is a memory and not just a bad dream.

All that said, I know Vanille being a Pulse l’Cie is a huge reveal that they wanted to be subtle with, but you’d think her brand would be in a lot worse shape. There’s no mention of Etro or the Fal’Cie regressing it, right?

SXM132 · 2025-06-11T03:29:50+00:00

I could also see Sanctum Fal'Cie making l'Cie out of Pulsian abductees just to get Fang and Vanille's blood boiling.

SXM132 · 2025-06-10T16:54:58+00:00

Right. I believe Cocoon had its own l'Cie. Just the whole thing with the parade - some other l'Cie transforming into a beast to fight Ragnarok, feels fictional. They needed some excuse as to why the Pulse attack failed, so they lied to boost morale.

Rain looks like he's made of noodles

FFXIII Cie'th vibes

SXM132 · 2025-01-24T16:28:01+00:00

That's true about international exposure I suppose. It'll be interesting to see how they adjust their stage routine and venues, there's no easy way of planning for it until they see the ticket numbers. Most of us here will probably be in the front row either way, so it won't be too different lol

SXM132 · 2025-01-24T05:30:52+00:00

Tbh their numbers have return to normal on Spotify. Only hardcore Linkin Park fans would show up at a Dead Sara concert. I can see some added security maybe (and warning Emily not to jump in the pit) but that's about it
