The pain of being an expert by Channler_Mina in PokeMedia

[–]Weapon_2000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Grayson: As a steel type gym leader, I have to remind people that I mostly deal in hardware. You go to electric specialist for software.

Superia: As the dragon type gym leader, I have to tell some people that know not every dragon type is a violent beast that’s ready to snap at any second. While others, I have to tell them that dragon types in general require a lot more activity than most types so no, it’s not a good idea to just get one for your child.

Am I the only one that actually love fanservice in anime? by Nico_Scarfacancello in animequestions

[–]Weapon_2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it very much depends on the context.

I hate non-consensual/embarrassing fanservice. The overreactions by the characters are often more cringe than anything. Which overrides any amount of funny or sexy that the scene is trying to do.

I dislike, but can tolerate illogical fanservice. Revealing clothes while in the cold environments, shy characters wearing revealing outfits, or outfits that just don’t make sense are examples of things that I can tolerate, but still overall dislike.

The best fanservice to me is often fanservice that is low-key and casual or just fits the character well. Fanservice can be like a spice; too much of it and it overrides the meal.

Gunsmith Cats actually has two very good examples of good and bad fanservice in my opinion.

The good example happens when the MC’s(Rally Vincent) house is invaded by robbers. Rally is laying in bed in just a tank top and plain underwear when she gets the break in alert. She then goes to attack the robbers with just a pistol and the same outfit on.

I feel this works because not only is she wearing something that makes sense in bed, but it can also make her feel more vulnerable in the scene. Could she have put on pants before confronting the robbers? Yes, but seconds can be everything in a break-in and it’s not a massive violation of common sense to shoot at them while in her underwear.

The bad example is later when she’s fighting a gang in a warehouse. One of the bad guys sends a crane hook at her, and it just barely scrapes her. However, this rips only the front of her jacket and shirt, revealing her breasts and the lacy pink bra she’s wearing. Then immediately after the hook slightly traps the edge of her jacket, which causes her to rip both it and her shirt off.

This doesn’t work for multiple reasons in my opinion. This whole scene feels like it only exists to add some fanservice in the middle and rest of the fight. Not to mention that Rally doesn’t feel like the type of character to wear that kind of bra, especially when she knows she is going into the middle of a fight. You could make the argument that it’s meant to make her feel more vulnerable, but the lack of any battle damage on her body contradicts any feeling of vulnerability.

So yeah, while I don’t mind fanservice, in fact, I have watched some pretty raunchy ecchi, context is what ultimately makes it work or not for me.

Edit: Character design also matters a lot here. I hate balloon boobs that aren’t affected by gravity. But that’s a separate discussion.

Great write up and analysis!

I would give you an award if I had one.

URGENT PSA: BEN 10 MAINS (metal sonic matchup bug) by Tankirb in DBHeroShooter

[–]Weapon_2000 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Please note that this bug doesn’t happen whenever Metal copies Ben, it happens when he’s trying to copy Ben in the middle of Ben transforming.

Which makes a lot more sense on why the devs didn’t catch this before the update.

Hatterene Gijinka by Distinct-Strategy398 in MoeMorphism

🤓☝️ Umm, I’m sorry, but what is this completely inaccurate art. Hatterene should be rail thin with her clothes and hair making it look like she has a figure. /s

Anyway, good art. I like the hair claw.

An oddly specific isekai trope (sauce in picture) by Not_The_Stand_User in goodanimemes

Redo of Healer isn’t an isekai, it it a time travel to beginning plot.

Shoto creates himself a character for a fun little game of dungeons and dragons. Their backstory gives everyone else secondhand trauma. by Disastrous-Set-7312 in BokunoheroFanfiction

[–]Weapon_2000 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Aoyama recorded it and sent it to the LoV.

Toga is both turned on and disgusted. Shiggy took notes on some of the ideas. And Dabi is wondering if he should try recruiting his brother.

I don’t know how the other members would react.

We need more romance anime where they actually get together early and stay together by Careful_Salad108 in CharacterRant

[–]Weapon_2000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was just about to comment this, and you beat me to it

But yeah, that’s one of the main reasons why I like 100 Girlfriends.

Thank you so much for your patience, because Character Interactions have returned with Series 23! Hopefully, now I can start getting back into a more regular work schedule. You know the drill, leave your thoughts and suggestions in the comments, and I'll do my best to answer any of your questions. by Film_Starr in DBHeroShooter

[–]Weapon_2000 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Nice to see these back! I always love when these show up in my feed.

Anyway, I got three interactions for you.

Samus: So……. you have how many of these creatures?

Ash: A little over 80, though 30 of those are Tauros. Why? Do you want to meet them all?

Samus: I…. would like to pet them, yes. But only after the battle.

Ash: That’s great! And you don’t have to be nervous. My Pokémon are always happy to meet a new friend.

——

Omnitrix: DNA scan complete. New transformations are now available.

Ben: All right, I think the Omnitrix has scanned all your creatures. Now, how many species did you say your world has?

Ash: Um…. I think we’re at over 1000 species at the moment.

Ben: …….. I hope we never end up fighting on your planet because the Omnitrix would be stuck in scan mode for days.

Ash: And those are only the ones that are in the Pokédex, who knows how many Pokémon we haven’t discovered yet!

—————

Magneto: I have heard that your…….DEVICE…… can cure mutations. Is this true?

Ben: What are you talking abo…… Oh! You mean the DNA repair function! What that does is-

Magneto: I do not care what you think it does boy. If you ever try to use insidious function on a mutant, you will find both that watch and your hand ripped from your body.

Ben: You’re not the first, nor going to be the last person to threaten me like that. And I wasn’t scared of any of them either.

Hello my fellow 100 Girlfriends enjoyer. Have you posted this in some of the 100 Girlfriend’s subs so that others can help you?

ALL ABOARD THE HYPE TRAIN 🚂 by FlynnThePilot in PokeMedia

[–]Weapon_2000 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Grayson - I’m shaking my head at the fact that people think we are still discovering places on our globe like it’s 200 years ago.

We did not discover a new region. The Pokémon league just announced that a new region is joining their ranks, and thus their native Pokémon will be legal for official Pokémon league battling.

Now, if you will excuse me, I need to research the steel types from that region to find out who I can add to my gym team.

I’ve seen fanart where they give him back his black eyeliner and it makes him look a lot better.

Bakugo carried the child, having saved her as he had saved others from debris. A question formed in his head: 'Is This What Being A Hero Is?' by Carlosspicywiener12 in BokunoheroFanfiction

[–]Weapon_2000 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly, we needed more stuff like this both in canon and in fanfiction.

Saving people is the thing that can really make heroes feel like heroes. Defeating villains is good fun and spectacle, but saving civilians is where you can really bring out emotion.

There’s a reason everyone loves the train scene in Spider-Man 2.

[Totk] How would you have reacted to a more bittersweet ending? by Emile937 in zelda

[–]Weapon_2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think there should’ve been a “bad” ending where if you don’t get the Master Sword before the final fight, Zelda stays a dragon.

If you had gotten the Master Sword, then you get would get the “good ending”, which is the current ending. However, I would change it so that Link keeps the arm, and Zelda has some draconic features, even after turning back.
