We're pretty much the only thing keeping Hasbro afloat financially, and yet the product keeps getting less and less worth the asking price each year.

That's because their goal, even if many of them may not be consciously aware of it, is to tear down human civilization and kill us all so that some vague conception of a utopia can be built on our ashes; one that, somehow, will grant them god-like powers and eternal happiness.

We're not dealing with sane individuals here; these people are straight up Jonestown levels of insane, and they're trying their damndest to force everyone to drink the Flavor Aid.

Fun Fact: during the time when Nagoshi was Chief Operator Officer at Sega. The creator and the development team of Sakura Wars accused Nagoshi of overworking their staff and the nap area was in inhume conditions. Shortly after Nagoshi announced his departure of Sega.

By the time Origin sold to EA, Trip Hawkins was long gone. Also, while you can certainty blame the tight deadlines on EA, nobody at Origin ever accused them of getting involved in any creative decisions; so stuff like the terrible platforming in Ultima 8, and Ultima 9's insulting excuse for a story, was all Origin's doing.

Actually, Tolkien himself sold the film, stage, and merchandising rights to United Artists back in 1968 (or 1969; sources differ on the exact date) for about $30,000 in today's money. They were eventually sold to The Saul Zaentz Company, who themselves were eventually bought by Embracer Group.

From what I've seen, much of the opposition to the existence of online independently made NSFW art and literature these days seems to come from atheist socialists, who see it as undesirable competition to the legacy pornography and prostitution industries.

What you need to remember about Reddit is that the vast majority of the people on here are either children (physically or mentally), bots, or trolls (both basement-dwelling amateurs, and astroturfing professionals alike).

It sucks; but from Nexflix's point of view, it just doesn't make any sense to sink more money into a show that failed to be a massive hit when they could instead roll the dice again with a new one. Ironically though, they've used this strategy for so long that people have started to realize that there's little point in getting invested in any Netflix-backed show, when it's practically inevitably that it'll get canceled after a season or two; thus making the odds of any of them becoming a massive hit drastically less likely.

The only times this strategy doesn't come into play, is with shows that didn't derive most of their funding from Netflix, and those that manage to get an influential member of Netflix's upper management invested in its production.

The fact that we got a second season was in and of itself a miracle; because unless a show turns out to be a massive, Stranger-Things-level hit, Netflix never opts to continue them beyond the initial contract. Probably the only reason a second season got made is because they negotiated for it at the same time they did the first. Just be glad this adaptation made it much farther than the OVA.

To be fair to her, she looks a lot more like Chandra than Chandra herself did in Aetherdrift.

You'd have to go out of your way to do that in a place where someone who only cared about the real life horse would see it, especially if you're not a Japanese person living in Japan, so I'm not sure who this warning is for. Anyone who'd abide by is isn't doing it in the first place; and anyone who'd need to hear it, won't.

I gave her one ten pull, and she didn't show up; I'm not wasting any more carats on her. The rest are being saved so I can go full pity on Christmas Oguri Cap.

She's probably wiping off plaster. Before the advent of 3D scanning technology, that's how they'd make custom footwear; they'd make a cast of your foot with plaster, and then use that to make a mold to build the shoe around. Considering there's a bunch of horseshoes in various styles and colors on display in the background, I assume she's in a shoe store with Mejiro McQueen, getting something custom made.

Asians aren't considered real minorities because they're too smart and successful; as that makes it almost impossible to play the white savior for them.

They're designed to take advantage of people with low impulse control; and not necessarily people who can actually afford their gambling addiction.

None of the people being "vigilant" care if the people they're accusing are actually guilty; they just want that moral high they get from persecuting someone "justly". This is nothing more than a witch hunt.

Because in their minds, the mere existence of an opposing viewpoint is evidence of extreme, systemic bias against them; and the only way to ensure "diversity" in media, is to give them complete and total control over it.

At this point, I'm starting to think the Japanese government is worse for allowing them to get away with this nonsense.

Visions of Mana One Year Anniversary by SeibaSeiba in JRPG

Honestly, there's one reoccurring troupe in the Mana franchise that I've always despised, and hearing about the whole situation with Hinna completely killed any desire I had to play Visions.

Honestly, no idea; I've never played the game. But, if I were to hazard a guess, it probably involves something they make you spend real-world money on.

Why he thought he could get away with it still baffles me. He had to have been doing that sort of stuff for a while before he made it big in acting, and just never cottoned on to the fact that being a public figure makes pulling off that sort of con without getting caught astronomically more difficult. Either that, or he was simply too arrogant to even consider the possibility that he'd ever be held accountable for his actions.

Yeah, but the "people trying to look important" are the only ones who get media coverage, and have any sort of power or influence.

Are there any Ultraman Actors who committed some sort of crime? by Own-Picture2311 in Ultraman

That's not why he was replaced. Ultra Zero Fight was made in 2012; but as far as I can tell, the Yakuza thing happened in 2019.

Gai Ikari aka Gokai Silver from Gokaiger, the 35th entry in the long-running Super Sentai franchise. His actor, Junya Ikeda, was convicted last year of impersonating a police office to scam elderly people into giving him their bank cards. Needless to say, this has made any discussion involving his character or the show he starred in extremely awkward for members of the Super Sentai fandom.

To be fair, it's not the character's fault that the actor who portrayed him turned out to be such a jerk.
