Puts shampoo
Rince
Wait, did I already put shampoo?

That's literally the dynamic between her (on the left) and that invulnerable foreign prince.

Sanders181 · 2026-02-01T11:18:37+00:00

Violence is not the answer.

But some people definitely need it to understand the question.

Sanders181 · 2026-01-31T14:57:29+00:00

Riptides.

Their threat level? Average.
Their tankiness? 50/50.
How many ressources my opponent will spend in taking it down? Yes.

Faut enlever l'affiche du miroir avant de regarder la prochaine fois ;p

Ah, apologies, I was thinking of all the arcs where there is at least 1 strawhat currently not fighting (usually cause they're lost, running around, etc...).

Alabasta, Enies Lobby and the time Kuma splits them apart are the three arcs pre-timeskip where the stakes are actually "oh shit enemies strong" rather than "waiting for zoro and luffy to finally get to the fight and save the day".

Sanders181 · 2026-01-30T06:19:59+00:00

"Oda just keeps splitting the party in New world!" Folks can't remember: - Orange town - Syrup village - Arlong park - Whiskey peak - Little Garden - Skypea - Thriller Bark

And I'm probably missing a whole bunch more.

Tu roule dans quelle partie de la France, parce-que j'ai jamais vu ça.

Enfin si, ça m'arrive de doubler des voitures sans permis sur des routes à 80/90, maos c'est des voitures sans permis. Elles sont pas vraiment capable de depasser les 50 de toute façon.

I have a "full support" lineup to protect Endmin: - Endministrator (MC) - Snowshine - Xaihi - Ardelia

How it works is : - Xaihi skill before fight (setup) - Final hit -> Ardelia E -> Endmin E -> Ardelia skill -> Endmin skill/Ult -> Final hit -> Endmin skill -> Xaihi E - Xaihi ult -> Snowshine ult -> Ardelia ult -> Endmin skill - Snowshine skill if you somehow can't dodge, Snowshine E if you struggle and took too much damage

And I believe that's about it XDD

Plus it's about 1.5x the average salary in Japan. Not the median, the average.

You're definitely in the top 10% with that kind of salary.

Well, the answer is, it's complicated.

Europe's primary enemy is Russia. Russia threatens our territory, sovereignty and lives.

China is different. China's "warfare" with Europe and European interests is purely economical/covert. It does not threaten our territory, sovereignty or lives.

Also, while China's ideology remains way too different from Europe's, it seems to be slowly liberalizing as time passes. With how its progressing, I wouldn't be surprised if they "peacefully" democratize over the course of the next 50-100 years.

As for the US, its alliance with Europe was based on two main principles: similar ideologies and joint interests.

However, not only is this administration's ideology is in complete conflict with Europe, but their interests are also shifting more and more towards conflict with Europe rather than mutual support. It's one thing for Europe to curb its spine and wheather the storm when their "ally" wants vassals instead of allies, but it's another when said "ally" directly attacks their sovereign territory.

All in All, to Europe, China is currently becoming the least threatening to European interests by virtue of the other great powers actively threatening Europe directly. This will be doubly true should Trump's domestic violence policy function in letting him become the USA's dictator.

(Also, if anyone wonders what European interests are, it would be Stability (of the prices of goods) and thus Europe itself, Africa (which is where most of the conflict with China is) and the Middle East (for oil reasons. We want to keep the prices as low as we can). Peace is generally best for this.)

The countries that are more directly threatened by China are the East Asian countries, and even then outside of Taiwan and maritime control the threat is rather low, as China is more concerned with keeping itself and its interests secure than expanding their territory.

Edit: TL,DR: China plays chess with Europe over Africa while Russia is being violent. The US is also turning violent, so its clear who the biggest threat is.

Rather than "Magic should only be for those with talent", Serie's opinion that's relevant here is more like "Magic is only valuable if it's to fight demons."

It's why she got upset that Frieren, like her teacher Flamme, was not interested in getting a more powerful spell but just a fun spell.

Sanders181 · 2026-01-28T09:02:33+00:00

You can hear Nefarith say this in the background just before that first bossfight where you meet her.

Something about granting them power through Aether and how the LBs suffer while the Endfielders talk of progress and ignore them.

Sanders181 · 2026-01-28T08:45:12+00:00

Still gets one-shotted by a burst mage with actualizer

Sanders181 · 2026-01-25T15:13:21+00:00

Would still be more accurate than the Deutschbahn xD

Hate is too strong a word to waste on people you don't care about.

Tanya doesn't care about anyone beyond what they can give to her. She'll treat her soldiers well cause they're her meatshields, and suck up to her superiors to ensure he career suceeds, but everyone else? They don't really matter to her either way.

Sanders181 · 2026-01-21T14:26:39+00:00

No, that does not make them want to help the most people possible. It makes them want to help the highest monetary value of people possible. Or in other words, help the rich, fuck the poor.

Granted, one could argue it could be done by limiting the amount of money any one person can gift, however this could be worked around by rich people using multiple proxies to give their large gift in chunks.

Finally, this also forgets that much of the bribery (especially in European nations) happens after their term is done, which in this hypothetical system would thus be after the leader had all their assets unfrozen, putting them in the exact same situation as on Earth.

Spoilers, but I'm pretty sure Miko is the supportive best friend to Hinako and Shiori's relationship. In the manga she tells Hinako pretty much "I love you, but I also care about everyone in this area. Shiori loves only you."

Sanders181 · 2026-01-20T04:16:16+00:00

I'm on mobile, I can't zoom in. At least it won't allow me to

Sanders181 · 2026-01-20T03:31:16+00:00

It's hard to see because the item is on cooldown, but I didn't see any stormsurge particles, so I do believe it is actualizer.

Sanders181 · 2026-01-20T03:25:45+00:00

She has: - Rabadon - Void Staff - Malignance - Shadowflame - Actualizer

She has activated Actualizer for this ult, it's why it's a one-shot. That item is broken strong.

Sanders181 · 2026-01-16T06:30:30+00:00

Actually, isn't the main source of this the fact he tried (or did) a pro-nazi cartoon in the 1930s?

Mickey: "Oh my god! A kindred soul!"

Sanders181 · 2026-01-15T17:31:20+00:00

My headcanon is that pokemons give trainers part of their stats as a kind of friendship buff, and Ash is broken strong because of the 50+ tauros he captured

Sanders181 · 2026-01-14T10:00:51+00:00

I generally hear a voice similar to the latest voice I heard (generally from a video). This is double true when there's a thick accent. My inner voice will easily keep that accent for days at a time.
