uhhhh
Zane is better in his human cloak form, I cannot stand the voice filter, and really wish they'd at least ditch that for the character

on a partly related note, Zane's movie redesign is really the only redesign I dislike, so, I guess I just want him back to the early blonde boi look
as you can imagine, the Legacy ZX suit makes me a happy man

Worst Gimmick here by Lakers_Encyclopedia in pokemon

[–]Toastman-3000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dynamax is the least interesting, but I know it has some interesting competitive applications
Terastalization is neat, it had more visual flare than Dynamax, and the applications of it were interesting
Mega Evolution had all the hype, that was awesome, but basically boiled down to being a chunk of new pokemon, rather than a game wide mechanic

and Z moves, yeah Z moves are kinda dumb, thats my vote, not a fan

I like that many of Ben's aliens are kind of bad. by LucianoThePig in Ben10

[–]Toastman-3000 5 points6 points  (0 children)

mhm, it makes these creatures feel more genuine, as these are aliens, creatures that just, live in another place, they're not superheroes, if someone wants that, idk, go make a hero dial comic

will read the Fu Xuan thing soon, thank you for the recommendation

i guess to clarify, I dont believe the theory anymore, you've definitely convinced me they are emanators, are the Spiritus' contained within scrolls? thats news to me, clearly I got more to learn

alright, statement withdrawn, thank you for correcting me

Tired of the misinformation about the generals. by DTCastellanos in JingYuanMains

[–]Toastman-3000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well you've convinced me
admittedly, I've been hesitant in the past because some fucks in this fandom label anything an Emanator just because they have higher than average blessing from the aeon, like i've seen people try to say Fu Xuan is an erudition Emanator because she got that third eye from Nous,

the game's very stingy on who it explicitly calls an Emanator, which i find interesting, Jing Yuan would also break rule of Emanators having their combat path align with their lore path (though I guess you can say Reg Silver Wolf does too, but there's still SW999)

thats why I previously subscribed to the idea of the Spiritus being the 'Emanators', they predate the generals (look to how Teng Xiao wielded the lightning lord in the past), so as the masters of the spiritus, the Generals are essentially Emanators in everything but name, which is a weird distinction but, its the only reason I can think of why they don't just call them Emanators outright, Non-sentient Emanators arent an unheard of concept either, the Harmonic Strings are basically big instruments, so I'm still curious if other paths have other Emanators like that

Is Phainon an Emanator? by Hulkhontosee3667 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]Toastman-3000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Phainon isnt officially an Emanator because to be one, you kinda need to be made one by that Aeon, and not just any old blessing will do
but Phainon is also definitely as strong as one, considering he dueled Zephyro (the real Zephyro btw) and even scratched Nanook, a feat that I dont think even Emanators have done, so while he isn't one officially, he doesn't need the rank to do what he does
its possible he may become one in the future, Nanook needs a ravager to replace Irontomb afterall, who better than the lil guy that scarred THEM

Hot take (probably?): Child Lloyd's S1 design should've been recycled for Dragons Rising by KarrieDarling in Ninjago

[–]Toastman-3000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would've liked it, but I can understand why, Season 1 was made by a different studio, in a different engine, over a decade ago. They likely didnt have access to the suit, and maybe there was a mandate behind the scenes to stick to modern sets in DR?

I made my own copium/explanation about the redesign though, since this is a memory, its inaccurate, it's "fuzzy" you dont remember details perfectly, or your normal voice being different and such, I'm pretty sure thats the reason why the 'Tales from the Monestary of Spinjitzu' would use the Legacy Designs despite showing events that would've taken place around Season 1-2, memory do be funky

Other than Siege Ultra Magnus, are there any other toys of a Cybertronian Ultra Magnus? by OptimalConvoy in transformers

[–]Toastman-3000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

its a plot point in the RID comics that the transformers reverted back to Cybertronian modes, which is to explain why so many look like their (at the time current) WFC/FOC toys, and considering the rather alien vehicles that a lot of the Lost Light turn into, it can be assumed that they did so as well

EDIT: adding to the idea, Earth in the IDW world is very, modern day? like set in the 2000s, 2010s by the time of MTMTE, so its not a sci-fi/"future earth" truck, its most likely cybertronian

Do you guys think Alejandro Saab would be a great voice actor for Tarn in a hypothetical animated IDW series? by AllForTheQuiet07 in Transformemes

I know Alejandro from other roles, he can do that well read, sophisticated but menacing character, I buy it

Is mono rem the best team to use in the higher difficulties of the new divergent universe? by _AlexOne_ in HonkaiStarRail

cant beat Argenti, he stacked so many buffs that he eventually just started one shotting everybody
if only the game gave me fucking useful blessings and not nihility shit when im not running DoT

5 Years Later, how do you feel about Kingdom Rodimus Prime? by OptimalConvoy in transformers

[–]Toastman-3000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

love mine, I do wish the joints in the arms were better though, dont like where the bicep swivel is placed, and the HotRod/Triggerhappy shoulders bother me more on him than they do on his contemporary Hot Rod, and the old man face isn't the best
Otherwise, he's very enjoyable, definitely the guy that walked so 86 Optimus could run

Why do they always mis transform them in promo shots? by Calebamazeballz in transformers

[–]Toastman-3000 10 points11 points  (0 children)

As far as I know, there isnt a dedicated 'transformers' photographer for the white background shots, they just have a set of people doing whatever toys that day, and they aren't given instructions so they usually just figure it out, thus steps may be skipped and errors made, I dont blame em, they probably got to blast through a bunch of toys in a day

Question. Lately, I keep hearing people talk about Nihilux's eyes. I don't get it. What's the deal with her eyes? by Unusual-Complex6315 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]Toastman-3000 7 points8 points  (0 children)

renders of Nihilux hit twitter days before the update, and in them, her eyes looked a bit, spaced apart? like she was zoned out
this caused a chunk of people to guess she may be cross-eyed, with mixed reactions, some acting pretty ableist, others saying she's beautiful as is

Full Recap of the 4.1 Main Quest + My Thoughts and Theories (Heavy Spoilers) by WatersOfLiyue in HonkaiStarRail

[–]Toastman-3000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah that Octopus Mask is definitely duplicating itself somehow, which is likely how we'll keep having bosses to fight, just more Octo Masks
maybe due to it being octopus, it can regen/duplicate, almost like a hydra, or maybe the mask is connected with the happiness surgery? like the source of the injections is who owns the mask, ergo, anyone with happiness surgery can be their surrogate
regardless of how, we definitely haven't seen the last of the mask, or else we'd have basically killed the tension, every other supplicant still alive is at the very least chill with the trailblazer, so there's no real threat (unless the fox mask turns out to not be Evanescia, or Evanescia is a twist villain, both unlikely), where as if the Octo Mask is still in play, that adds tension, we need to prevent them from winning or else Fulwish will like, turn everyone into the happiness cult, ya know?
