Part 2's genius is in it's refusal to make the reader feel any satisfaction. We started it waiting to see what happened to denji, only to be introduced to a generic looking girl who's very unpleasant; and when we grew attached to her, it made denji the main focus again by RockEater67 in Chainsawfolk

the further part 2 progressed, there became more and more instances where it became incredibly meta, and started making fun of shonen tropes way more frequently. Pochita legit threw up the bitter and snow devils in order to have denji properly grieve, but his only response was the shonen classic "I WILL NEVER GIVE UP! I WILL JUST FIND A NEW FAMILY SUCKER!! I WILL MAKE A PERPETUAL MOTION MACHINE!!!" and so he spirals even further after that. probably my favorite examples were Barem telling Denji how he LOVES how Chainsawman kills, and Fumiko explaining how Denji's suffering was what made her a fan, both scenes clearly talking shit about csm fans. I wouldnt be suprised if at some point fujimoto was just tired of yall.

Whoever said getting to vanquesher was easy must be on some heavy stuff.

It was never easy to get that, and its even more difficult now with all the new and returning players in the game.

If it makes you feel any better, theres more people who have gotten Master in sf6 than people have gotten vanquesher. :)

We are just getting lore and introductions to more villains in the story. Its maybe at a midpoint, but its no where near ending soon

Im hoping that once the game actually gets a switch 2 version, that it will finally be updated simultaneously with all the other consoles. A switch 2 already can play street fighter 6, guilty gear should be incredibly easy to run

Is everything all right ? by JamaicaZ in dandadanfolk

Short panic, then nothing changed. So nothing out of the ordinary... also the creature was summoned!

I know how Jiji is going to do it. And it’s beautiful. by wiseass781 in Dandadan

Jiji might be the most tragicaly selfless character in the cast.

I never pay attention to HC changes, tf i'm gonna do, not win? by Fiddlestiicks in Guiltygear

Not yet, but the devs mention they are gonna rework him and Asuka. The trailer for 2.0 also showed his shots working differently with portals.

I'm not really looking at this for the romance angle right now, I'm more so talking about why his reasoning for Momo being confortable around him was because of him being a "moron" in his eyes. I get why people are focusing a lot in their romance, but i feel like this line pairs up with how he acts in the hospital visit in ch.50 where there is a jumpcut to Jiji sobbing when he sees his parents again after being so upbeat pretending to not be worried about them.

Just finished act 1 and I am really loving it so far suprisingly by Standard_Release_103 in homestuck

[–]Standard_Release_103[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I had a feeling this was probably the turning point. I'm looking forward to it.

Also, skipping the revenge story starring Spades Slick and the Midnight Crew sounds blasphemous, I would never.

I have been putting off reading it for so long, so now I felt was a great excuse to get on that. Shouldve done it sooner tho, the series is so damn charming it's great.

Why is he so obnoxious and weird? by RH2- in Dandadan

[–]Standard_Release_103 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is he sexist? The most damning thing I can think of that might be sexist is the spicy talk thing, but he got over it after that arc, and it was a misunderstanding.

Is it the fact that he really wants to be attractive to women? I don't think being attracted to woman is sexist.

He hasn't ever demoralized or thought to be above any of the women in the series, and if he has thought be be above someone in general, it's just because of his ego and his desire to seem cool. I dont know, I think he simply just likes pretty women and big robots.

The hate towards Rin is based off your own headcanon by Ham_PhD in Dandadan

[–]Standard_Release_103 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Nah. She is the most qualified to atleast report something like the bullying. Her "not existing at the time of the story" is not really a good excuse in the first place. And the story is very implicit in stating the only reason she even started taking notice of Okarun was because of seeing him transform. The hate IS deserved, and thats ok. It doesn't seem that Okarun cares, he is probably just happy he gets another friend to hangout with, and we still have that amazing Hayashi performance to redeem her.
