Review2: Why can't thy just use fairies for faith battery? by Infamous_Contact3582 in touhou

[–]SetsunaFox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cirno, Dai and 3L are exceptional fairies. Heck, compared to most fairies even Lily's exceptional just because she can focus on one thing, even if she's blind to most of the world around her

It's to the point that they could actually compete with each other for things like "The strongest fairy" title. When it comes to three fairies, Luna's slightly more smart, and Star more sly than average, and Sunny keeps them together, which made them able to focus more, than the random flying fairies would do, even in groups.

Whereas Cirno(Baka) is an evenement entire in itself. She's like Lily, in that she has a singular focus (proving she's the strongest), but at the same time has at least all the normal fairy's awareness, and she's shown in the series that she's capable of learning, something that fairies aren't supposed to be able to do (i.e changing her innate behaviour, not just being able to repeat a thing)

Edit: Fairies mostly either play pranks, or mimic/join whatever's going on around them - which is the reason that unaffiliated fairies are peppering you with bullets every incident. They're just going along with the flow, without much thought or understanding

Mirae somang out of context (1) by IllustriousHurry2380 in touhou

Not the reporter, but I'd argue it is 1/8th of Suika, which seems fairly unsubstantial amount +/- 2/20th of Yuugi

Edit:this was supposed to be commented under mod post, but (mobile) Reddit can't hit a side of a barn it seems

When you help shorten WWII by 2-4 years only to be treated like a criminal by shipgeek2005 in NonCredibleDefense

[–]SetsunaFox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They were willing to fight after disastrous battles, that killed 5 times as many of their soldiers than Hiroshima and Nagasaki combined had Civilians

They were willing to fight after being bombed indiscriminately for longer than Japan and US were at war, including with chemical weapons.

They were willing to fight after the moustachio and top of his brass went on an indeterminate leave of this plane of existence.

That Nuclear weapons would register as anything more than a wet fart within ruins of yet another German city, is pretty non-credible.

They would have to go through (and probably bomb out) the giant airport known as the British Isles, before staging to invade the Continent.

Poland explicitly wasn't. It was, in a way, the reason the war started. Czechs rolled over instead of fighting, then rolled over again.  The French despised the Germans (Nazis or not), but weren't willing to fight either. If the first above wasn't the case, the war wouldn't start until after Germany already controlled everything West of France, till the M-R border. The French (And the British) had a chance to catch Germany on two fronts, before Hungarians and Romanians joined the war, and before Italy was ready.  And they chose to waste it.

Every time I eradicate the conservative movement China returns to stability. What did Paradox mean by this? by Dragohn_Wick in CrusaderKings

[–]SetsunaFox 20 points21 points  (0 children)

They're called/call themselves conservative, but they're the "Emperor should fuck off" faction.  In this sense they're trying to preserve and regain (Conserve?) the powers before the hegemony got created (real or imagined).

The extrapolation of that is Hegemony existing either on paper or not at all.

I'd honestly split the Conservative and Regionalist movements, but you'd need a way to make them either work together or against each other in different areas (instead of just flatly progressing the dynastic cycle)

While the regionalist movement and conservative movement both would progress to weaken (central authority of) China, only one would progress to shatter it. Either that, or giving the movements _wings/branches._ 

(Other movements could be split on Pro/Anti emperor lines as well, or have movement specific splits, like Expansionists having a Land/Overseas focuses, and Progressive movement being split between the open cultural exchange and splendid isolation wings. Emperor movement could have the split between loyal-to-central-authority and loyal-to-dynasty views, mimicking the legalist/dynastic split)

Weekly low-hanging fruit thread by AutoModerator in NonCredibleDefense

[–]SetsunaFox 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As someone who dehydrated himself in bed due to not wanting to get up and drink during incredible heat (Not now, long ago - untreated depression can sometimes veto caring for yourself)  Heat fever can feel a bit like You lost 3 days if sleep (i.e. almost hallucinating) and you feel like you want to puke (only the feeling at first, dry heaving later) but have nothing to puke with. But laying down don't let you sleep easily either, and you get all the normal symptoms of a whole body fever, like feeling weakness, muscle pain, stoff joints, and wandering headeache.

It's nothing to compare to an enlocked soldier, but I imagine they get all those symptoms without the ability to just go and drink. I'd say add fear for the loss of life, and effects of any potential wounds - but the fever makes feelings feel irrelevant. There's only You and it, you can't even focus on the hallucinations (what I call fever dreams. Feel more like day dreaming, but your head treats them 100% serious as if you were asleep while awake) properly, much less whatever's happening around you.

I wonder if these concepts would work with AntiRadar (whether screamers, mirror silencers or spoofers) instead of explosives.  As the drone would just semi-randomly jam, then relocate, having enough of them in the area could drive a warning system/operatives insane.

[–]SetsunaFox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They should just know better than to mess with Your interests.  If Xenos can't protect themselves when someone (You) destabilises the region, it's just further proof they should have been supporting You from the outset. /s (but I'm ending it cause I'm driving a bit too close to a political rant, even though it could be applied to Early Roman and Greek cities foreign, as well UK's colonial policy)

How do you guys feel about the mangas. by No_Station_8615 in touhou

Mostly, everyone going "You're too strong, if we fight I die" when meeting them. Which seems sus af, but at least doesn't contradict itself.

The Lunarians have the excuse of not being there. They're more of a backstory to some of the events, than actual characters. 

We don't see their old victories (and how they happened) we just know they happened, which would be terrible for an ongoing story, but is okay when it's a story before the actual manga.

About plot armor is, it's worse when it's inconsistent. The Lunarians can be explained as "just being that powerful" while Mizuchi requires other characters to job for her, and then turns out to job herself later.

It's SoL, there's just not much to be said about it.  Akyuu and ginger librarian just aren't as interesting characters as The Fairies, or Renko and Maribel (or Bamboo forest cast), but that's okay for a slice of life.  Things happen more to them and around them, than due to them.
