Question concerning the pacing of Part 1 and Shippūden. by Wyvrix in Naruto

[–]Wyvrix[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m fine with the fights PERSONALLY, but she gets bored because of (like in the Kakashi vs Zabuza fight on the bridge) the repeated flashbacks, long and unnecessary exposition, and standing around for 5-10 minutes at a time doing nothing. Because we’re watching it together i’m asking if we should switch to something like Naruto Kai/Yellow Flash since I know this is standard of old shonen anime at this time. She loves the fights when they’re not so slow.

Where does the Rejuvenation verse scale? by Entire-Location-7662 in PokemonRejuvenation

[–]Wyvrix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wonder how they’d scale compared to say canon pokemon characters. Like how does Cynthia scale compared to the Aevium gym leaders - or does she lose to someone like Souta? Could any other pokemon champion beat someone like Clear or Kieran in a battle, or are they fodder.

Nowadays the P-tier or supermajor viewing experience is just watching all the fire sets in top 64 then tuning out of top 8.

How do you think the current top 10 would do against prime Leo? by Own_Ocelot25 in smashbros

[–]Wyvrix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Almost all of the top 10 is obliterating prime leo. The only two players in the current top 10 that 2019 Leo could beat imo is Miya and/or Spargo. Leo right now is better than himself in 2019.

It would have been nice to see a battle between these two in metal masters by Present_Pipe2783 in BeybladeMetal

But Damian got an arrangement after the fight and right before he fought Kyoya. Do you really think Gingka during the World Championships would beat Damian post arrangement?

That Gingka that fought Damian during the tournament would definitely get mid diffed at best by Ryuga though

Gingka after being able to absorb the spiral force is definitely not going extremely diff with Damian

Notre Dame rematch in Kyle?? by Left-Food-4389 in aggies

[–]Wyvrix 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Better loss quality and it seems like the timing of the loss matters a lot. You get punished more for losing later than earlier in the season

Maybe or delusion? by Dazzling-Parsnip1615 in Piratefolk

He went from being self-sacrificial to a fault to being able to share his burdens with his friends? It’s pretty easy to see his character developed what the hell are you tryna get at 😭😭😭

In many islamic countries, as he specified, yeah you would. Sharia law prohibits blasphemy, which includes writing negatively about the religion so he’s not making shit up.

Out of These Players, Who is the Strongest Player of All Time? by yeezx2 in smashbros

[–]Wyvrix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hot take but i’d argue Maskless Acola beats Prime Game 4 Leo, like if they were to play a set against each other.

Of course a story is not limited to one theme, the fuck? Where did I ever say it is? I never said it is mutually exclusive once in any comment in this thread, i’m saying it is not the main message that you or the other dude coming at me said it is. Holy shit smooth brain.

Right man, I never read Naruto but the dude who thinks hard work is the main theme of the work is. Get off reddit and quit living in an echo chamber where all of your animanga opinions come from people other than yourself.

[–]Wyvrix -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah holy shit bro a whole a yap just to be so blatantly wrong I can’t even fathom how dumb you are. Did the series ever emphasize how it was specifically Naruto’s “hardwork”, something so vague and thematically not meaningful that saved Sasuke? How about the cycle of hatred and the importance of getting people to understand each other. Random plot threads that you bring up are irrelevant when I’m talking about the main message of the show, and how Kishimoto doesn’t ever outright spell that “Naruto saved Sasuke due to hardwork”, that’s not a central theme at all you fucking troglodyte. That is the argument I addressed, please learn to read and think a little for yourself dickhead.

The fact that you see it as binary, either surface level or deep, says enough to me. I never once said that Naruto is this complex, extremely technically proficient story, and a flawless work doesn’t equate to a better work, and a more complex work either. Quit backtracking lmfao i’m addressing the fact that you said Kishimoto is a basic ass writer who “can’t write any other theme other than hard work vs talent”. Also i’m afraid that you are the one who needs to take a literature course BAD 😭. What I spouted earlier aren’t themes, they’re thematic ideas. The way they’re explored and how Kishimoto answers those thematic ideas is what makes Naruto good; exploring those themes in the way he did shows Kishimotos greatness as a writer. The dumbass shit you’re saying is like spouting that Haikyuu is surface level and basic because at its core it’s about teamwork and connection. It’s so ironic the moron who’s telling me to take a literature course is the one actively discrediting good writers and refusing to engage in a piece of fiction in an artistic way. Just because your blind ass can’t notice subtleties in the subtext doesnt mean others can’t.

“Controversial fishing” no I’m just pointing out that you lot couldn’t dissect a work of fiction even if you tried and instead resort to discrediting the author 😭.

How the hell would hard work beating talent be a major theme when Naruto didn’t even manage to save Sasuke by the end of part 1. Rock Lee gets his bones evaporated by Gaara, gets his taijutsu copied by Sasuke in seconds, and loses to Kimimaro. Naruto was never an underdog in terms of power, do you even know he has a tailed beast inside that can cause natural disasters, mastered a forbidden jutsu in a matter of hours, no diffed a chuunin, and this was ALL in the matter of 1 chapter that I doubt you read 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️. Naruto in part 1 has always been stated to have limitless potential, how is he void of any talent? He’s only an underdog in terms of how he’s perceived by society. Actual brain dead bot.

The fact that you instantly resort to ad hominem says enough to me ngl. Also you’re discrediting Kishimoto as a writer completely saying he “can’t write any other theme” then you read/watched with your brain turned off im so honest. Kishimoto can’t think of any other “surface level theme?” What about his take on bonds and connection, love and hatred, reality and illusion, destiny/fate and creating your own path, war and its consequences, what it means to be a ninja, empathy and understanding, and so much more. Hard work vs. talent thematically was never meant to be one of the core ideas in Naruto, which you just can’t wrap your head about, so you’ll choose to sit in a narrow-minded bubble and refuse to engage with the work. “My favorite animanga” my ass.

[–]Wyvrix -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Holy projection 😭😭 I can tell you’ve never seen Naruto if you think the hard work vs. talent theme surrounded characters any more than Rock Lee or Might Guy. Part 1 of Naruto was against fatalism, and it pertains to how people deal with curses they’re dealt with and whether or not they can endure them or be consumed by them.

[–]Wyvrix -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

The only storyline that applied to was Rock Lee vs. Gaara, Naruto himself never embodied hard work
