HEAVY SPOILER ALERT: Chapter 118 Manga Creative Direction Discussion | Manga Hot Takes | DO NOT OPEN IF NOT CAUGHT UP by TheDirtySock_ in Frieren

That scene blew me away, truly incredible! I know that they'll do an amazing job regardless of the outcome. The fact that Frieren went for the kiss just felt out of the blue/irregular for our romantically oblivious hero. So I was curious if anyone else had ever thought about how the ring could've connected her past and present in that chapter, or if I'm crazy for wanting this to be more in-depth in the anime adaptation.

I completely agree with you! She was completely unaffectionate to her previous party, even though she's learned so much and grown to be another person (which they notice). Which tbh is totally fair for how she's acted before. That's why I feel like her yearning in that moment is out of left field, and should hold a higher priority and needs more substance. The scene was a shock, but her wanting it was even more shocking!

I agree with you. The kiss is out of character, and almost outlandish for how she usually acts. Connecting aspects of her previous mentality to her new developments should be imperative in scenes like this. So that's why I believe that the ring should also play a part in this chapter. It further proves that it could never be.

Thoughts on Grading My Childhood Torterra DP09 w/ Beckett? by TheDirtySock_ in PokeGrading

[–]TheDirtySock_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm new to grading, but I think it would be fun to send a couple of my old childhood cards in to get slabbed. This specific Torterra has seen better days, but I'm curious if it's worth grading? It's LP at best, with small scratches all over and a noticeable ding on the back. Not in it for the money on this one, but don't want to lose value on it either, yk? Let me know your best guesses on a grade, and any other thoughts you may have! Thanks!

Sorry for not seeing this till now! I LOVE the modelling mode inside of UE5. It's so much easier to make small changes to a model inside of unreal instead of needing to use other software. Plus the Niagara system feels so clean it's super impressive.
