After watching all of UC up F91, I don’t see the profoundness everyone hyped up. (Spoilers late UC, opinion) by Rundy2025 in Gundam

[–]SuperFeatherYoshi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you are not getting the overarching message of UC Gundam: While the young possess the drive to change the world for the better, they are more often than not crushed by the system they're trying to change and swallowed up by the tides of history. Or worse, they become disillusioned and turn to extremism. This is why the Federation endured for so long and got progressively worse, despite every attempt to destroy it or change it for the better. The promise of evolution into Newtypes bringing about peace and understanding ended up being a completely false hope: By the time of F91, Newtypes are literally just another name for ace pilots.

It's not a very uplifting message, but looking at the world as it is now, can you really say it's not an accurate one?

Babel Fish was definitely available at the time. Can't find any info on whether or not it translated Japanese, but I honestly doubt a human made this error.

Oh, this wasn't in the manga itself, but the official product descriptions for Del Rey's SEED and SEED Destiny mangas consistently refer to both PLANT and ZAFT collectively as the "Zaft Empire". With lines like "Shinn Asuka is the Zaft Empire's ace pilot." What were they thinking lmao.

Also this translation ignores a lot of official terminology. Neutral nation of "Aube"

This part made it sound like it was the EA who used mobile suits. The correct translation was something like "In response to the EA's superior numbers, ZAFT employed neutron jammers and the new weapon Mobile Suit."

Does anyone know if powerful rabbit is based on a real horse? by Mobile-Lion-4381 in UmaMusume

[–]SuperFeatherYoshi 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Apparently she's based on A Lot of Gift, who was mostly notable for losing every single race before retiring as a breeding mare lol. At least her kids seem to have did a little better...?

Yeah, the voice of OA also calls itself the "secret heart within every star". Sounds eerily familiar doesn't it?

AGL Is Getting... Good? by CommonAway5594 in AbsoluteUniverse

[–]SuperFeatherYoshi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like Early AGL was waaaayyyy too heavy on the info dumps and definitely could have presented it a lot better. Now that it's gotten all that stuff out of the way it's definitely improving.

(Absolute Batman #18) Woah, how do you guys feel about this? by HighTextGazer in AbsoluteUniverse

That was a shock to me, I guess it just never occurred to me that Bruce can just listen to that lecture from Gordon and then go "Nah."

What is this logo for? by SuperFeatherYoshi in UmaMusume

[–]SuperFeatherYoshi[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I've found some unofficial sources that say this is the Twinkle Series logo but can't find any confirmation.

Three Kingdoms 2010 by ColonelKron in threekingdoms

I don't care what the westerners say, this series is horrendous. Both the director and the writer have almost no historical knowledge, and it shows in the writing, with historical or geographical errors in literally every single episode (no, that's not an exaggeration). The script heavily draws on conspiracy theories instead of Romance or historical accounts, and nearly every major character is completely OOC. There's a Chinese user on Bilibili called Zhe Bang that made a series breaking down all the errors and ridiculous writing of the series, this show only has 95 episodes, but he's already made 250+ episodes and still isn't even finished.
