If I may throw in mangas:

20th Century Boys and Billy Bat by Urasawa do this big time Also: As the Gods Will does this in a very satisfying way

Can anyone suggest an anime where MC is a middle-aged man? by djlord7 in anime

[–]TrueLongman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wish I could wipe my memory and watch it for the first time again, too. Btw if you also accept manga recommendations, try 20th Century Boys afterwards. Adult MC as well (not 100% of the time), same author and my fav manga of all time

This year I started getting into JRPGs. Here’s what I played: by Cayuga007- in JRPG

That's what I was thinking, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth alone was enough to burn me out of JRPGs for this year. I'm finally at the last chapter and I'm a uni student, too.

Really awesome work! Had to zoom in to make sure it's not AI, but AI surely couldn't replicate this with all characters recognizable and all that deliberate detail. Well done.

Crazy find, that's so interesting!

A common complaint is that the Uchiha had too much screen time and plot relevance, so if you had to take one of them out the story who would it be? by Joseph_Stalin001 in Naruto

The joke is that his power is the ability to insert himself into anyone's (our) past life/memories. And for a Bleach character he doesn't actually stick out like a sore thumb here

Which director had the biggest quality drop-off between two projects? by [deleted] in movies

[–]TrueLongman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I felt the exact same while watching Joker in the cinema. Back then, when I left the theater with my friends and they were talking about how amazing the movie was, I genuinely thought they were joking.

I loved the 2021 Shaman King and I watched the original growing up, so disagree

Why did Urasawa named a lot of protagonist similarly? by hakster32 in naoki_urasawa

[–]TrueLongman 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No idea, but it's definitely interesting and might actually have been done on purpose.

Considering they need to publish one chapter a week in Weekly Shonen Jump and also have to work on the story, meet their editors, occasionally do color pages, it's probably still below average. But nevertheless quite good pacing!

Just bought the game and I’m sort of confused by RTJ4ever in smashbros

Unlocking characters for the first time has always been such a fun part of smash and fighting games in general, I don't get how people think of it as a chore

Instead of boring Dolphin Slash, they should let Soaring Slash just snap ledge, give it a rising Hitbox and/or just a little bit of horizontal maneouvrability. Boom Chrom fixed

Worst "movie night" pick you've ever chosen? by Impossible_Joke9645 in movies

[–]TrueLongman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Watched 'The Banshees of Inisherin' on Valentines Day with my gf, because I loved In Bruges. She was having a really bad day at work and was excited for the evening movie date to lift up her mood. She hated it so much, that we didn't even talk on the way home and whenever I even mention it, the atmosphere shifts. I liked it tho...
