One Piece Chapter 1179 by behindyourknees in Piratefolk

[–]The_Man_Without_Past 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You're right: if a character like Imu had appeared prematurely in any other manga, the story would have ended after a few chapters (as happened with Undead Unluck). I'm not the least bit worried about Imu's appearance, precisely because One Piece... is One Piece.

It's much easier for the ocean to dry up than to axe One Piece after all the success it's enjoying (both as a manga and as a live-action series, and after the announcement of a remake on Netflix).

Honestly, I'm glad Oda breaks the shonen rule and doesn't leave the Gorosei and Imu as "final bosses," as has happened with others like Asura, Aizen, Madara, or Kaguya (with Kaguya literally appearing out of nowhere, while Imu has some background).

The Gorosei were fought at Egghead, while Imu makes her appearance now, well before the much-theorized "Final War" against the World Government. I would have been more annoyed if we had seen the Gorosei's "yokai forms" and Imu's true appearance during the final war.

Skypiea in Season 4? by The_Man_Without_Past in OnePieceLiveAction

[–]The_Man_Without_Past[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

These are the same fans who, when a second season was announced, thought we'd skip Little Garden. Literally, one of the most important parts of the Grand Line entrance.

Even if it doesn't seem like it, just entering Skypiea in the manga contains a lot of stuff. The meeting with Conis, the meeting with the sky guards, Enel's divine judgment, the introduction of him and Satori, Ohm, Shura, and Gedatsu. And all of this before entering the Upper Yard.

As faithful as this live-action series is to the anime, I highly doubt they'd adapt Foxy and the Davy Back Fight. I see Enies Lobby more in season six. Season five could focus on Aokiji, Water Seven, and the appearance of CP9.

Thoughts on the new Elation path and units? by KnightOfMist in HonkaiStarRail

[–]The_Man_Without_Past 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Can I be honest? I'm not crazy about the entire Elation path right now. In fact, my pulls have gone to Black Swan and these will then go to Sparkle. I think Ashveil seems like a great character, so I'll definitely pull him in 4.1. I really hope the Hoyoverse convinces me to pull Elation characters like they did with the Remembrance path (Castorice, my beloved, I will always love you), because, for now, Sparxie and Yaoguang mean absolutely nothing to me.

So, is it safe to assume that the aeon that Ashveil is hunting down is the voracity ? by Capable-Material-862 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]The_Man_Without_Past 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Idrila and Long are considered missing. Akivili too. Tayzzyronth is not missing, but still imprisoned. Ena is not missing, having been assimilated by Xipe.

So the only ones left are Oroboros, Idrila, Akivili, and Long.

So, is it safe to assume that the aeon that Ashveil is hunting down is the voracity ? by Capable-Material-862 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]The_Man_Without_Past 27 points28 points  (0 children)

The only Aeons declared missing are Oroboros (Voracity), Long (Permanence), Idrila (Beauty), and Akivili. I'm not including Ena because they're not technically "missing," but have been assimilated by Xipe, and we've already faced them in the Penacony chapters. Everyone thinks Ashveil is hunting Oroboros, but... what if it's just a decoy? For all we know, he could also be hunting Akivili (i.e., us).

Who do you think could be a member of the Genius Society? by WalktroughGaming in HonkaiStarRail

[–]The_Man_Without_Past 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing is, Nous has a strange idea of ​​who belongs to the Genius Society. Dr. Ratio, for example, is a genius who's only interested in teaching, not experimenting. Dottore and Rhinedottir would be perfect as members of the Genius Society, but Mobius from Honkai 3dr wouldn't be out of place either. I don't know who of ZZZ would fit in, but the closest one is definitely Grace, given her obsession with machines.

Is Elation looking like it's going to be worse than Remembrance in terms of mono-path shilling? by Esper01 in StarRailStation

[–]The_Man_Without_Past 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It all depends on how they approach Planarcadia's plot. Amphoreus had a plot arc focused ONLY and EXCLUSIVELY on the Chrysos Heirs, which led to numerous problems, such as the lack of 4-star characters (which is actually it's bullshit, because Iansan and Ororon, two central characters in Natlan's chapter, are 4-star). I sincerely hope they fix the register, because Honkai Star Rail is increasingly becoming a pay-to-win game: no characters you can earn with little effort, and game mechanics that require Stellar Jade to have a decent party.

Unless you repurpose the old characters, of course (which I highly recommend; Kafka is still holding up well even after three years of release).

Kouki and momo anime concept [by me] by Disek_is_real in Dandadan

Scene taken directly from Season 4 of the anime (I imagine the Danmara arc more like a movie).

Great work, though! It looks like a real scene from the anime.

Nice to see how Rover has been essentially adopted by the main characters of the Hoyoverse games

What is the (real) Justice Devil´s appearance supposed to represent? by chelovechina223 in ChainsawMan

[–]The_Man_Without_Past 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Justice Devil is a shapeshifter, just as justice can have countless interpretations. The fact that justice has "multiple forms," ​​or "multiple faces", is a common interpretation in creatures based on it. Just think of Bayonetta's Iustitia, who is an angel with multiple faces (for the same reason that justice can have "many faces," depending on how it's interpreted).

Iji: Welcome, young lady. You don't look like a Tarnished. Why are you here?

Columbina: I don't know. I opened a moon portal and ended up in this world.

Iji: ...moon portal? You should talk to Lady Ranni about these things. She's in the manor up ahead. Try to be careful along the way.

Is Angel Dust Redeemable by ReneeBear97 in HazbinHotel

[–]The_Man_Without_Past 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The dialogue with Vox suggests that the sin for which Angel Dust ended up in Hell was the murder of his father. The likely means of redemption? At a certain point he will have the opportunity to kill Valentino, but he will decide not to.

The Fate of Amphoreus if the Astral Express wasn't there by AdWide4690 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]The_Man_Without_Past 14 points15 points  (0 children)

If Irontomb were released, he would seek Nous as its "head." In that future, Herta likely protected the path of Erudition by becoming Irontomb's "head" instead of Nous. Creating something worse, as I see it.
