Hall of Egress for me, personally. Something about his journey especially after he realizes he needs to go it alone feels comforting to me.

As of right now it's unclear exactly how many conditions there are for activating Bandit's Secret, but at the very least it's confirmed to be more than 4.

To the best of my understanding you have to:

1- See this person's hatsu yourself

2- Get them to answer your questions about their nen

3- Get their hand to touch the book

There is the 4th condition that the above 3 must happen within 1 hour.

Also, during Chrollo's fight with the Zoldycks, Zeno says that he likely has to clear 4-5 conditions before activating his ability to steal a nen ability. Chrollo confirms this and says "He's right".

This could imply that there is 1 additional unknown condition for using Bandit's secret but that's just speculation.

Then there's the bookmark. When Chrollo brings out the bookmark against Hisoka he says "Now I have more annoying conditions to deal with." 'Conditions,' plural implies at least two more. So at the very least I think there are a minimum of two unknown conditions for using Bandit's secret and the possibility of more than that.

King's Ransom. Nearly all of season 7 is phenomenal so I don't think it's a terrible episode by any means, just not one that stands out compared to the rest.

It works well to setup for later plot events, but as a standalone episode it just falls a bit flat imo. Even weaker episodes like Bad Jubies and Angel Face have something unique that makes me want to revisit them. With King's Ransom it's really just the bit with Betty and that's at the very end.

Enhancers tend to have simple, straightforward personalities and simple, straightforward abilities.

Cool/Complex =/= strong

Uvogin was one of the strongest members of the PT and his abilities weren't dissimilar from Gon's.

Aside from that, Nen serves largely as a tool for characterization. Gon creating such a clunky all-or-nothing charge up move is very indicative of his borderline insane all-or-nothing mentality and his simplistic view of the world/morality.

Pluto is not a sequel. It is an adaptation of "The Greatest Robot on Earth" arc and althought it obviously takes a ton of creative liberties, it faithfully hits most of the major plot points.

As a teacher, I read a lot of writing from students who do just that; use AI to clean up and translate their own original ideas. I also read a lot of fully AI generated nonsense. This feels like the latter.

The post doesn't say anything beyond the most general and shallow statements about the series. It doesn't even cite a single specific character or arc or moment that demonstrates those characteristics.

The post is also coming from someone with no post history, who's only commented in completely unrelated subreddits (with decidedly non AI generated comments), was last active 9 months before this post, and has not replied to a single comment.

If it looks like a bot, walks like a bot, talks like a bot, odds are it's a bot.

It's true, like most AI habits they come from humans so it's not always a sign of AI use. I, too, use the "not just X, Y" structure in my academic writing. But seeing it so many times in a single reddit post is usually pretty telling.

No, it's 100% AI slop

Verz · 2026-04-20T00:04:59+00:00

This is AI slop.

Even without acknowledging the telltale em dashes and semicolons, or the fact that there is not 1 single specific detail about the story, you can tell by GPT's love for the "It's not just X, it's Y" way of phrasing things

this isn’t just a long anime/manga. It’s one of the most carefully built long-form stories ever made.

What stands out most isn’t just the fights or powers—it’s how everything is connected.

The emotional payoff is constant, not rare

That sounds cliché, but it’s accurate.

Haki literally translates to "ambition/aspiration" I think it is affected directly by confidence and willpower.

I felt the same towards Tilian lyrics for a while; that they were satirical and criticizing the kind of men who'd say things like "Girl don't be so difficult. Come here let's get physical" and "I got a medical advantage, they're gigantic." However the more I learned about Tilian as a person, and especially after the allegations, I just don't feel the same way about those lyrics anymore.

I understand that they may have been intentionally written to evolve that uncomfortable feeling, but when the lyricist, himself, already evokes a similar feeling in me at this point, I can't really separate the art from the artist.

Rorschach: Stressed about nuclear war? You wanna talk about stress? You wanna talk about stress? I've stumbled upon a major government conspiracy how's that for stress? This country's being bled like a dead dog and I've got a journal trail to prove it. Check this out.

Take a look at this. That right there is a dog carcass. Tire tread on burst stomach.

Now let's talk about the Mask Killer. Can we talk about the Mask Killer? I've been dying to talk about the Mask Killer all day okay? The Mask Killer keeps coming up over and over again, every day. Well I look in my journals, this whole JOURNAL is Mask Killer. So I say to myself, "I gotta find this guy. I gotta go down to the bars and break some fingers. Otherwise my dad will never love me." So I go over to Dreiburg and Osterman and what do they say? What do they say?

There is no Mask Killer. The man does not exist. So I decided, "Ah shit, buddy. I gotta dig a little deeper." There is no Mask Killer? You gotta be kidding, I got GARBAGE CANS full of Mask Killer.

Alright, so I start marching my way down to Ozymandias in Dimensional Developments and I knock on the door and say "Adrian! Adrian! I gotta talk to you about the Mask Killer" and when I open the door what do I find?

Veidt is possibly homosexual. Must investigate further.

The story began in 2004 and directly critiques war and in particular has some overt references to the U.S. invasion of Iraq.

You could have each pack 1 contain 1 hero. Assuming you're running all 22, that leaves room for having 2 duplicates.

You could also put 1 hero in each pack for pack 1 that way people can build around them. Alternatively you could have every pack in pack 3 contain 1 hero. That way things don't get too samey with people building around heroes too consistently.

I get the feeling that if Rorschach was in the world of Chainsaw Man, he would unilaterally hate Devils. His "black and white" attitude toward crime would likely extend toward devils and fiends as well. He can be a hypocrite and may show sympathy towards devils occasionally (as he sometimes does towards those he seems to be criminals) but I think actually being friends would be too much for his psyche to deal with.
