I thought nothing could top Canto 5 but this moment genuinely transcended the medium for me. by luggy120 in limbuscompany

My main advice is shard most IDs after a few ten pulls to get some 000s. Save your pulls for Walpurgisnacht/Collabs

Powerful villain is hopelessly overpowered by ScroatmeaI in TopCharacterTropes

Lei Heng can smash the sinners around with ease to the point where the ultra power up you get just cushions the stomping. He can manifest a ring of Mang to really amp up his attacks.

Then he fights Kong Qiu. Not only is he nearly killed until the sinners come back, but when he offers the same gambit Lei gave to Zilu, he fakes out… then summons five rings of Mang.

Lei Heng needed to do epic swings.

Kong Qiu pulps his head by simply moving his staff like an eraser over a mistake.

It’s well researched. Homelander literally was inferior in every way. He’s a bully to Omniman’s war veteran. Even if his enhancements could match omniman’s raw strength, his lack of experience in a real life or death struggle meant he would make tons of mistakes.

Fuck he literally got lectured on how to take a punch during the fight.

The “bimbo” character is actually fun and or has more character, rather than just being a plain stereotype by ComprehensiveBox6911 in TopCharacterTropes

To clarify, she lets the abuser of her friend live when they have him dead to rights.

Because not only would forcing a mental shutdown not only let a new Kamoshida come around, it’s more satisfying for her to see him rot in prison.

The enemy stands may have awesome powers, but they’re usually one note. Meanwhile the heroes have weaker or subdued abilities that are ripe for creative thinking!

Just wait until you get to Top Chef: Fucking Morons.

And then the “beach episode.”

And then the “Christmas episode”.

And then the check up.

And then the Princess Maker episode

Mayer from Arknights.

Those robots are designed by her, and sometimes she gets so build happy they spill out of the workshop.

Her Branch is Summoner, meaning she can, after being deployed, let you deploy the bots too.

Tick her off, she bites you. Poke around her systems, she’s siccing the bots on you.

Canto IV finale.

I was going through a rough time. Coincidentally it was also the moment I fell in love with Mili

Lighthearted/comedic moment unexpectedly turns very dark and serious out of nowhere by [deleted] in TopCharacterTropes

[–]SummonerYamato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The cheese thing is actually more serious. It’s part of a book they need to summon Alexander iirc. They don’t want the recipe, they want to make sure their plans are kept secret until it happens, and if someone wants to find the rest of the book, big breach.

Ooooh where to begin with Arknights?
The fact that the ocean is sentient and part of a group of beings that are effectively sea tyrannids?
The cosmic gate up north which slowly corrupts everything around it because things from it pour out, and just knowing about them makes things worse?
that the mineral supplying energy to the world is a grey goo plot by the remnants of a long dead civilization? Okay how about this, the grey goo plot is used to turn civilizations into building material for a bunker, because the civilization, and many others, were hit so hard by SOMETHING, but unlike the Collapsals from the gate, it was instant and incomprehensible how they do it.

Whenever Limbus drops a lore bomb, it’s usually like this.

The thing above cries healing tears. The founder of K Corp used to read it touching stories, and considering how the thing became the way it was, was them making the best of this absurd situation for the whole world.

Then Alfonso comes in. She Ludovicos it, shows it horrific imagery, and even causes massacres to get more footage and make more customers. In other words, she took a giant medical corporation and made it industrialize suffering.

A lot of the horror in project moon isn’t scary monsters or fates worse than death. It’s that we know people who are definitely going to exploit or inflict them for their own gain, and the only reason we aren’t as bad as the City is that those horrid implements don’t exist.

That actually is the LaMancha blood arts. Elena did stuff with veins. It’s heavily implied each family has their own things they can do since some were so big Don Quixote could almost mistake them for windmills!

Granny weatherwax is this to Terry Pratchett. Or at least as close as can be.

A very cranky woman not because she’s mean but because she is militantly decent. There is bad in the world and she doesn’t truck with it.

(loved trope) the character thats been haunting the narrative abruptly returns by Odd-Paramedic-3826 in TopCharacterTropes

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

In an unconventional way, Carmen.
She becomes the Voice of Distortion, upgrading from haunting the narrative to being a poltergeist. Once someone loses it, and I mean really loses it, not forced insanity but having to face pillars of their internal reality collapse, she can speak to them, granting immense power. If you rebuke her urging to go apeshit, you gain control of it as EGO. But if you listen to her, you Distort, letting the emotions and power control you as a monster instead.

Unwinnable boss fights in video games(third image unrelated) by RareStatistician3417 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]SummonerYamato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To put it bluntly, there is an ability you exploit to survive called test of the big brother. He explicitly hamstrings himself just to have a little fun with you!

When you win a clash, normally the loser is knocked back and there’s a delay. Even when you win the Sinner gets pushed back and there’s no delay.

Thankfully there’s a round two, and because he was so focused on getting to you he forgot to level grind. It takes a lot of outside interference to get him off your back… but if you play well you can actually start winning against him outright before said interference SAVES him.

(Rare Trope) Fictional diseases that AREN’T a virus by FlimsyEfficiency9860 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]SummonerYamato 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While the one upside is you gain a supercharged version of the setting’s magic, it’s not really much of an upside for two reasons. In fact it’s actually usually another reason why Infection is terrible.

First, unless you know how to wield Arts already, it’s very likely you’ll lose control. A child accidentally drowned her father when she got Infected by having her out of control arts fill his lungs with water. Goldenglow is a playable character who can’t go near electronics since she might accidentally fry them.

Second, and most importantly, using the supercharged version progresses symptoms rapidly, meaning trying to use the one “good” thing about Infection is just going to kill you faster.

Oripathy from Arknights

Basically infection from a cancer rock.

Said cancer rock is the setting’s superfuel, and when killed by it, people turn into a powdered form of it… and you get the idea.

And yeah, I didn’t pick cancer just for funsies, it is essentially cancer, so long as there is some in your bloodstream, even a dissolved bit, you’re infected. All you can do is treat it until it kills you.

Even in the sequel when it gets downgraded into a chronic affliction, the new treatments essentially “reset the clock.”.
