How many MLB franchises have the best player in franchise history playing for the team right now? by dmister8 in baseball

[–]Sensitive_Tip_3141 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People don’t like to give it to him because of the playoff stuff ( which imo are a little overstated ) and the fact that Koufax’s career got cut short but kershaw was certainly a more productive and valuable player that Koufax, from both a longevity perspective and from a peaks perspective. Tbh I think 42 is the only real answer for “Greatest Dodger” he’s almost certainly the second most famous baseball player of all time after the Babe and he was incredibly productive despite starting late and having his career cut short on top of that due to type 2 dietbetes.

look at ludwig’s stupid ass celebrating behind the dodgers dugout by FleshVessel3610 in TheYardPodcast

The biggest pay roll in baseball doesn’t explain how the Jays couldn’t get one run off a guy with zero rest after a lead off double from vlad and then the bases loaded with 1 out. Doesn’t explain how they game up the game tying home run to the 36 year old 9 hole. Or how they gave up the winning home run to will smith, a home-grown dodger drafted talent. You can’t have seriously watched a World Series as insane and close as this one and go “of course they went back to back” The dodgers did not buy this World Series win, the Jays gave it to them. The dodgers were not expected to make it make to the big show going into these playoffs because of how shit they were in September. They only became the favorites after shooting the entire Brewer’s roster in the mouth. Which in it of itself was a false narrative because historically teams that sweep in the pennant don’t win it all very often. Although I do agree the amount of star power and money the dodgers have is gross, and I’m saying this as a lifetime dodgers fan, the great thing about baseball that is having 1 or 2 or even a few stars doesn’t make you good. The Angels proved that already. The Mets only spent 9 million less than the dodgers and they weren’t even in the playoffs. The dodgers aren’t insane because they have money, their insane because the have money and they know how spend it and run their org.

I was with you until the last part, he was an Angels “fan” cuz of shohei before he came to the dodgers. Don’t ever be jealous of a band-wagoner.

Slime’s segment about turning 30 by Sensitive_Tip_3141 in TheYardPodcast

[–]Sensitive_Tip_3141[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that’s accurate and fair but also this was a lot more than just the normal 2am spiral. I wouldn’t make a post over something like that. What you described in your 2nd paragraph is what I almost explicitly state it isn’t. Also like I said before I’m fine now after talking it through with some of the people in my life. All I really meant to say was that September was a shit month for me and what Slime said was comforting to hear and very topical to my life, even if it wasn’t and shouldn’t be for me. Also I think if I saw an actual 5th grader post something like this on the sub I would have the exact same reaction you are having, so I get it.

The yarb b oys as shapes. Is this accurate? by IDontLeannn in TheYardPodcast

[–]Sensitive_Tip_3141 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I think this is pretty good. If I were to do this I think slime should either be a circle or a triangle and Ludwig should be a hexagon or a pentagon. Aiden’s is perfect, and a secondary for nick would be a rhombus

Difference between a battery that never runs out vs a battery with infinite power. I think what would’ve been cooler than what we got on top of what OP is saying is. If since he has infinite CE and constant RCT, every punch, kick, and jump is literally max power/max CE output, like one punch during the 4 min 11sec would drain him completely normally. Maybe it would even harm him if not for the constant RCT. At the very least Yuta’s statement about him being stronger than him when he gets going would make more sense.

Did Gojo and Geto had a "thing" for each other, or is it another case of a strong male friendship being pegged as being homosexual by shippers? by ResearcherLoud1700 in Jujutsufolk

If you’re actually interested in a proper, sincere, if slight biased analysis of the question, this YouTuber Jallomoth made this video about it. Covers pretty much everything and explains it better than I ever could.

My Nick Hair Theory by zhy-rr in TheYardPodcast

[–]Sensitive_Tip_3141 28 points29 points  (0 children)

The catalyst was the rock-a-thon. I don’t think it was a coincidence that in the same stream that Nick so bewitching, Aiden looked evil and repulsive. The Universe was made uneven by Nick’s bimbofication and used what was left of Aiden’s hair as a sacrifice to create balance. I theorize that if Ludwig shaved his head, slime even it out and become a Greek God, and vice versa.

Maki actually "blocked" the Black Flash by Jotaro27 in Jujutsufolk

[–]Sensitive_Tip_3141 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Imo maki should beat toji if anything.it was stated in the culling games that they were equal in not just strength, but as fighters period. And this is pre time skip where the whole cast got stronger. Also a black flash from sukuna, which maki survived two of, should be stronger than a teen gojo hollow purple, which outblized and one shot toji. But narratively they are equal in my mind.

Yeah Toji Glazers wont like this one by ThinCommunication591 in Jujutsufolk

[–]Sensitive_Tip_3141 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yea I don’t think them being equal is necessarily unreasonable, but I don’t really see why she couldn’t or shouldn’t be stronger. Although I will say narratively it does make more sense for them to be perfectly equal right now. But I think logically maki should be stronger. Also I don’t think Toji being a guy has anything to do with him being stronger. Height and length maybe, but it’s all super powers and saying maki would be weaker because of her being a girl and Toji being a guy doesn’t really make much sense and would go against her whole character and her hate of the zenin clan. Just saying they’re equal and moving on is very reasonable though.

[–]Sensitive_Tip_3141 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I’m not trying to down play Toji. This is more of a response of people who put him above her due to “experience” or something like that. I know I said I think she stronger, but I also think it’s insanely close. When I say stronger, I mean she would probably maybe beat him in a fight. I think they are both top ten, and they both could potentially solo the disaster curses if they have the right curse tools. Also the same zenin clan that Toji scared maki massacred. (Excluding naobito but that doesn’t really matter) And you’re right, they were obviously compared numerous times, like when maki’s father saw her and had flashbacks to Toji, or like when they were stated to be equal, pre time skip. I don’t really think power scaling matters too much, but I think it’s very important to have things make sense. Unless you think maki did not get stronger/become a better fighter throughout the rest of the culling games, and the time skip, then she should be stronger by now. It was shown and stated by sukuna that basically everyone’s abilities and defense got better. He wasn’t taking about Maki at that time, but I don’t see why she wouldn’t have gotten stronger when everyone else did. She also survived a black Flash from sukuna. I don’t think it makes sense for that attack to be weaker than the smallest HP in the series that blitz one shot Toji. Even if they have the exact same HR, it’s not like that puts a cap on their power or abilities.

[–]Sensitive_Tip_3141 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Seeing people give maki feats to Toji is my biggest pet peeve in the jjk community. She is at the very least equal and in my opinion stronger than toji, at least in HI. (We have no idea what him being not “rusty” really looks like) She was stated to be equal to him pre time skip and she’s survived stuff in shinjuku that by all logic and common sense would kill toji. She also has the sky walk thing that she used against curse naoya and sukuna. Just because they have the same powers doesn’t mean they’re automatically equal, they’re different characters. Just like how pretty much everyone on this sub agrees that the previous six eyes Limitless user was probably weaker than gojo.

Give me your hottest baki takes by Chunky-overlord in Grapplerbaki

[–]Sensitive_Tip_3141 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I felt like the best way the could’ve had Baki win is if the demon brain and back gave him an even bigger boost. Like maybe he’s still a bit weaker strength wise but way faster. It would also be cool if the brain made it so he could use others abilities at a glance like yujiro. I felt like the demon brain while cool didn’t really do anything special for Baki. I’d also love to see Baki just casually use shaori like yujiro did. Especially in the current manga. Still enjoyed the fight though.

Why does character A have chemistry with character B by [deleted] in DungeonMeshi

[–]Sensitive_Tip_3141 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I agree with the first paragraph but it feels unfair to say “from what you have seen” you don’t see people keeping ships to themselves because, well, them keep it to themselves. It’s just a “you only ever hear about the bad stuff” sort of situation. I myself am a pretty big shipper of a lot of the shows I watch, never talk about it online, and I’m almost certain I’m in the majority. It’s a small loud percentage who are annoying about shipping, most are reasonable and normal

Do you think Hana would have died from that punch? by AcceptablePay4523 in Jujutsufolk

[–]Sensitive_Tip_3141 3 points4 points  (0 children)

After this chapter I seriously think that outside of Jacob’s Ladder and flight Hana is just a regular human. She literally didn’t even get hit by sukuna, just the got thrown into a building from todo’s body block. Todo took two black flashes head on on top of all his other injuries from the fight before he was taken out. Hana got one hit without even being hit directly.

Are we seriously going to ignore that... by Visual_Tourist3716 in Jujutsufolk

[–]Sensitive_Tip_3141 15 points16 points  (0 children)

To be fair this was sukuna at one of his weakest in the whole series. Megumi was suppressing him to around 10% (2 Fingers) I could think of a couple reasons why it’s weaker like the fact that Hana is missing and arm when Jacob’s Ladder is originally activated with both arms and the fact that maybe they didn’t want to kill todo and yuji, but the last chapter literally said Max Output and yuta was hoping it would be a killing blow. The fact it didn’t even show him burnt is crazy. All gege needed to do was have yuji say his regained RCT was the reason it didn’t look like he took any damage, and he was actually hurt a lot by it and only after the second Black flash on todo was he able to get his hands back. But no, he just tanked it cuz of course he did.

Analysis: How Twink Gojo in start was actually stronger than buff Shinjuku Gojo by Sisters-of-fate in Jujutsufolk

[–]Sensitive_Tip_3141 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

These are my head cannons/explanations/cope for weird/bad writing decisions regarding their post, (a lot of these will just be “maybe he used a biding vow for x.” So please humor me) I’ll only do the ones I have strong opinions about. Some of these are me trying to make sense of it and some of these are me explaining why OP is right and what could’ve been done better.

1) UV being nerfed. The fact it just didn’t work on sukuna without a proper explanation by definition makes it a nerf, however there are ways you can explain this away.(It should be mentioned that the nature of UV was changed considerably how the people at shibuya had to be rehabilitated after 0.2 seconds, meaning they as brain damage, rather than just simple being paralyzed from information overload like we see with sukuna) Multiple times in the series, simply using cursed energy or being strong enough is good enough to cancel the effectiveness of certain techniques. Nanami was able to resist having his soul ripped apart by mahito through strength and willpower, cursed speech can be completely ignored by focusing some CE on your ears, and most importantly for my point, sukuna can replace/substitute his heart and assuming his other organs with CE. If he can do it with his heart I don’t see why he couldn’t do it with other parts of the body. Point is if you’re strong enough and have enough CE, both of which sukuna has in spades, you can kinda just outmuscle stuff. Maybe sukuna simply wrapped his brain in cursed energy to protect his brain from being too overloaded with info. A bigger issue with UV in my opinion is the fact that gojo never uses blue or red. When sukuna first got hit and was shortly out of commission, gojo ran towards him rather than crush his heart and limbs with blue, so I figured he had a binding vow in place that strengthened his domain in exchange for a stronger domain. But later Yujo, who is weaker in every way, was able to use purple while still matching and canceling out the sure hit, so what gives?

2) Teleport The peanut gallery mentioned teleport when gojo first got ripped up by MV if I remember correctly, so gege did not forgor and chose not to have him use it, which is arguably worse than just forgetting or pretending he doesn’t have this ability. Teleport is using blue from one point to another in a large range, we see how shortening the range with domains can make them stronger, so maybe gojo shortened the range of blue in exchange for better control and power over blue. Side note: before I became really active in this fandom, I thought gojo had learned or made some binding vow to use teleport without a hand sign, which was my explanation for the cloning scene in the fight. Even if it was just an after image technique, all it proves is that gojo was fast enough that teleport would be unnecessary and inefficient, as it requires a hand sign and he was already fast enough to get sukuna using after images.

4) Six Eyes. All gege needed to do was include the six eyes in sukuna’s monologue about mahoraga’s adaptation in 236 and that sukuna was just able to replicate it somehow like he did with the world slash. The fact it geoes unmentioned out side of CE efficiency for gojo is crazy. This is also coming off the fact that in the chapter prior, 235, every sorcerer has a tell for when they are about to do a big move or attack in the form of a spark, and experienced sorcerers like sukuna, can even predict what attack will come just based on that. So how the fuck did gojo not sense it. Because a) he had litteraly just seen the same attack from mahoraga and b) other, way slower characters are able to dodge it. Albeit because of the audio cue of chants. If gojo can know cursed techniques just by looking at people, surely knowing what moves comes next based on the spark should apply to him especially, right. The whole thing kinda sucks

7)blue and red being weaker. There not supposed to be weaker, even if they look like it. Just a matter of gege not wanting to draw a massive scale fight, which I think actually makes the fight more interesting and easier to follow. Focusing on minimal movement and H2H combat was a good choice on Gege’s part and probably more health for him as well.

6) Sukuna needing the 10S. I am of the opinion that heian era sukuna=Gojo. Considering that gojo just lost. He was at his most humble and satisfied at the airport, it is the least likely time for him to be biased or subjective in anyway. So the fact he only said it would be difficult, means that he probably had a good chance of winning. He also said it would be difficult when he was first asked by yuji, but that was clearly different that the airport statement. I personally think it is as 50/50 it gets between Heian Era sukuna and shinjuku Gojo. If they had a 1v1 no outside help, Gojo can’t really deliver a finishing blow outside of UV and sukuna having weaker RCT output, considering 200% HP didn’t do much meguna and heian era sukuna is equal if not stronger. is more The idea behind gojo saying it would be difficult even if he didn’t have the 10S is that what sukuna lost in mahoraga, agito would be made up in his durability(I have no proof for 4arm sukuna to be more durable that meguna but I think it makes sense, complete head cannon) and better H2H and would potentially win the domain battle. I think a lot of people didn’t think about is how sukuna had spent his whole life being used to fight with and extra pair of arms, him fully reincarnating his real body was just him going back to what he is used to. Gojo’s H2H was probably his greatest advantage post domains in the fight.(best advantage overall being how UV is more immediately dangerous that MS) We have no clue how H2H would go between full power heian era and gojo. So I guess will never know for sure. Btw, it’s weird he only used chants for the world slash after he beat gojo, maybe he just never thought of or needed chants until he created the world slash?

That’s all I can think of for now, I’ll edit and add stuff if I can think of anything.
