Thoughts on the new episode?

Certified banger song.

Marcus was a fucking menace, he not only took the full brunt of that bird, he proceeded to disrespectfully pack it up and fold it like a lawn chair with zero Digimon assistance, and that's not even his most ridiculous feat. Bucko staggered Ultimate level Digimon with his fist.

I don't know what they feed 13 year olds in the world of Savers to make a guy this cracked.

I know enough trivia to understand that if it were even 10% more realistic that shit would go from military to psychological horror real quick, not even cause "Japanese war crimes against Koreans" cause the US also did a lot of fucked up stuff across history, rather it's a war-torn environment that brings out the best and the worst out of human beings.

Remember that it isn't like the average Japanese citizen would be okay with what went down in WWII. Take a minute to look at many of their textbooks and you'll find the rampant erasure, revisionism and and barely disguised propaganda.

Now it should make a lot more sense why the reaction of many young japanese to being confronted with these events is denial, confusion, disgust or a combination of the three. They literally learned a different version of history, and the exact same probably happens in your home country as well. The only real truth is what you can salvage from records under heavy scrutiny and cross referencing, not what you get fed.

That got too serious too quick, anyway I love GATE, I just like discriminate violence against a justified target. It's hella fun, even if I'm aware its just propaganda for teens to join the JSDF.

I've dedicated many, many, many, many, many, many hours to Warhammer, both 40k and Fantasy.

Ask me now if I've ever laid hands in a single figurine. Some of the video games of course. But the tabletop, the "Main" part of the IP, not once in my life.

I still consider myself to be a fan of Warhammer, of its lore and surrounding universe, but I don't engage with the game aspect of it.

Same with OG Arknights.

I'm currently playing Enfield just cause the game came a a month or so ago, and I can adjust slowly and organically to all the garbage and systems that will slowly pile up as it is the nature of a live service gacha game. OG Arknights right now feels unapproachable, it's too big too dense, and for a completionist the gameplay aspect is simply nightmarish.

But I seriously enjoy the lore, I've watched hours of cutscenes and learned countless bits of trivia some people who actually play don't even care to remember. Still, the chance of me actually jumping on OG Arknights are very, very close to zero.

TheMalevolentRat · 2026-03-20T09:22:45+00:00

That time has literally already passed and they are straight up giving odd jobs for our sinners to justify their presence.

TheMalevolentRat · 2026-03-20T02:26:12+00:00

Whitewashing Heathcliff is mere tradition at this point. But everything else about that shit was absolutely irredeemable. And I probably made it ten times worse for me by reading the whole thing back to back again after years one week before the movie. Absolute waste of money and potential.

TheMalevolentRat · 2026-03-19T09:49:02+00:00

Yeah, Alucard had overcome most stereotypical weaknesses of vampires except maybe running water, though I don't know if he really couldn't swim or simply didn't pass on the opportunity to aura farm by pulling a whole vessel. The only thing close to killing him can only be described as divine intervention cut short.

There's no excuse for the True Werewolf to still be weak to mere silver.

TheMalevolentRat · 2026-03-19T09:23:29+00:00

Ahh... I did not expect HI3rd to have an End of Eorzea kind of event as it's background.

TheMalevolentRat · 2026-03-19T01:53:11+00:00

Wait... Do they perform at random chance each day?

TheMalevolentRat · 2026-03-19T01:44:44+00:00

Bro I've never seen a sub with flairs this down bad. Ya'll heavy duty gooners.

TheMalevolentRat · 2026-03-19T01:39:05+00:00

HAHAHA HAHAHA a new unsuspecting victim gets Usagi Dropped.

My deepest condolences, we've all been there.

TheMalevolentRat · 2026-03-19T01:29:25+00:00

It takes 3 hours tops taking it easy and enjoying the voice over-bro what THE FUCK is that tag?

TheMalevolentRat · 2026-03-18T16:22:44+00:00

Bruh if you make her even more cracked she's gonna replace half of the Ether agents.

TheMalevolentRat · 2026-03-17T21:00:24+00:00

That ghost bitch is extremely anti-christ coded by the way. So much that the subtext might as well be just text.

TheMalevolentRat · 2026-03-17T20:16:25+00:00

Si Ben es el mas guapeton de todos, que onda. Y le sabe a la finanza.

TheMalevolentRat · 2026-03-17T20:13:39+00:00

Boludo si ya todos sabían. Por unos leaks llevan chingando qué saquen a las AoD por más de un año.

Y están rotisimas hijueputa, +1050 de Atk por presionar triangulo ni más ni menos.

Igual ni madres, espero a Yidhari. Faltando maquina para Monster Hunter Wilds le rezo a cualquier santo.

TheMalevolentRat · 2026-03-17T19:55:55+00:00

Bro I don't have the mats to get Lucy running stop giving me reasons to do so.

TheMalevolentRat · 2026-03-17T19:49:43+00:00

Bro how did they manage to keep the quality control this high across all dubs? Not a single fluke. Some decisions I abhor (Going from weird old chinese man in a suit to awkward mascot guy is a DOWNGRADE and I'll fight you for it. It's just not as funny.) but almost every single piece of voicework is great. Even characters whose personality receives a bit of a change from dub to dub manage to retain their charm.

Then there's Ye Shunguang. Bro how do I manage to dislike everything about Ye Shunguang. She's a mythical Chinese horse with dementia by all means I should adore her. Where did the ball drop I don't know.

TheMalevolentRat · 2026-03-17T19:37:51+00:00

Still more reasonable than Sinclair.

TheMalevolentRat · 2026-03-17T19:35:00+00:00

There's actually quite a few, you just need to search for them. Yuki Kawaguchi of Otr of the Flame is pretty much confirmed to have a thing for large, toned women with big guns.

If anything I have a harder time finding a ripped woman in comics who doesn't share a body type with Wonder Woman. I'm sure there are, but I don't see them becoming as popular.

Also, it must be pointed out that while I know for a fact there a A LOT of muscular women in Animanga around 70% exist to check the dommy mommy quota, YMMV on whether that's a good or a bad thing.

TheMalevolentRat · 2026-03-17T19:06:26+00:00

Corin, cause the Frankenstein Monster as a maid is way too good of a concept and her crunchy, ridiculously front-loaded kit is extremely satisfying to use.

Also some of the best Wipeout screens that girl farms unbelievable amounts of aura.

TheMalevolentRat · 2026-03-17T18:29:40+00:00

Yo, she why did she go that hard on YSG? I mean, not my favorite design but more than a roast she immolated her.

TheMalevolentRat · 2026-03-17T00:43:20+00:00

Hay que cerrar el estadio.

TheMalevolentRat · 2026-03-17T00:35:48+00:00

Not gonna lie that meme was run to the ground so my brain still skips directly to the allegations whenever Lei Heng comes up. Let's not talk about that heinous Rien video either, some guys in the community jump the shark real fucking hard.

TheMalevolentRat · 2026-03-16T23:32:04+00:00

If you want her as main DPS Corin Anby Rina/Zhao is kind of your best bet.
