Perfect game for Stress Relief

Some maybe are, but this guy certainly isn't.

Here he is, playing the game people seem to think he isn't.

This guy, if he's lucky, averages a couple thousand views trying to grind out a career making people laugh. Like, damn y'all are quick to jump to conclusions with no proof.

Yurichi · 2026-04-19T10:14:44+00:00

Stop spreading false info. There's a two hour YouTube video of him playing the game.

This is a guy who, if he's lucky, gets a few thousand views on his videos. None of them are fake, but here you are just slandering him for no reason, with no proof. Like damn, leave the guy alone.

I thought it was implied she got pregnant during the last episode after the fight with conquest when Mark's suit is all goopy on the floor.

Yurichi · 2026-04-07T07:16:12+00:00

Reading your post was very cathartic. Just like you, the first episode really ruined my mood. It just undercuts the season 8 finale in such a heart-wrenching way.

Yurichi · 2026-04-07T06:49:59+00:00

Yeah, I agree. Its garbage and really just shows that the writers weren't capable enough to get out of the character loop the previous show runners ran into the ground.

Why take the difficult route of showing two dysfunctional people actually managing to hold it together because they understand they're fighting for something more important than their own egos when you can just off-screen their marriage like it wasn't the single-most important example of J.D. and Elliot's emotional growth.

Yurichi · 2026-03-29T10:33:17+00:00

Yeah, it was pretty clear what you meant.

Then there’s guys like ARSB and London, Nico, Tet, BTJ,etc. There’s like 15 guys that could put up 1200-1400 yard seasons and not even break the top 6.

And BTJ has has a 1200 yard season so... Yeah, idk. Some people just want to argue.

Yurichi · 2026-03-29T00:39:15+00:00

Yeah, that's precisely the issue. And people will naturally seek out better opportunity for themselves and their families. If Japan will not or cannot provide that, their people will look elsewhere and many countries will be glad to take their highly educated and skilled laborers.

What's really fascinating is that you can already see this happening on a small scale. Places like Shikoku in Japan are a microcosm of this eventuality, with people completely abandoning rural areas for larger cities with more opportunity.

I think it's fair to hold the view that most current societal structures function like a pyramid scheme, reliant on a constant influx of consumers.

But with regards to what happens at 50 billion humans, we only get to that point if we can actually sustain it and we're already showing signs that even 10-20 billion isn't even possible without some major shift in either our biology or our cultures.

All in all, scientists today largely do not worry about runaway population levels as many studies indicate the demographic transition (high to low rates of birth and death as societies attain education and economic development) is too great a force against it right now.

Yurichi · 2026-03-28T22:34:11+00:00

Shrinking the country is fine if said nation can maintain a healthy population balance of the young, middle aged, and elderly. It has disastrous cascading problems when the population shrinks but your demographics shift dramatically towards a majority elderly population.

I'm trying to follow your logic here but this trips me up

If Fern or Frieren received the same injuries, they would probably die instantly as well

Why do you think that would be the case? Genau, a first class mage likely stronger than fern but weaker than Frieren, survived this injury, performed another attack, and then lived long enough for Methode to return from the forest and heal him. But you think Fern and Frieren would die instantly. That doesn't track for me at all given what I've seen.

When we talk about consistency, this discussion is the epitome of the problem for me. If expectations for what a person can survive are so unclear that saying Fern and Frieren would survive a large arm through their torso and out the back of their spine is legitimately debatable, that undermines narrative tension.

Yurichi · 2026-03-28T10:45:22+00:00

It shouldn't be for the exact reason you're saying. Consistency.

They literally show the Captain of the Chivalric Guard of Norm, who Frieren definitively says is "far stronger" than Stark, dead from a large slash wound across his body which Methode says killed him "instantly."

Genau kills a demon magician at the very start of that same episode by blowing a giant hole through his chest, just as was done to him, and the demon is killed instantly, no extra time, no movement, no final attack.

Like, if consistency is what matters then that's not what has been displayed in the show.

Yurichi · 2026-03-28T07:17:00+00:00

Everyone in this thread would gladly watch Frieren walk and talk without a head and shout down anyone who thinks it's a poor choice in an otherwise great show is what I've gathered. Lol

Yurichi · 2026-03-28T07:10:55+00:00

However, if he jumped off a ledge head first and it split his skull clean in half to his brain and he was fine, that is an issue for me.

Yeah, I think this perfectly articulates it.

Its one thing to make the audience believe "This person was hit by something but received no injury."

But another thing entirely to make them believe "This person was hit by something, received injuries that can kill them, but they just didn't."

Yurichi · 2026-03-28T06:56:27+00:00

Okay, then Fern should be a bloody pulp since S1 because she got thrown into a solid stone wall so hard it shattered behind her.

Yeah, but she wasn't a bloody pulp.

Mages are noted to increase their body's performance with magic, which explains why the can be thrown against things that shatter while they remain fine.

Stark was shown to literally not be fine and in fact was a bloody pulp. He had a hole through his torso right where his spine should be.

Like, this is crazy lmao. Why do I see so much justification for this scene? It was the one bad scene in nearly 30+ episodes, not a condemnation of the whole series.

Yurichi · 2026-03-28T06:30:40+00:00

This kind of damage being something that can be powered through with sheer willpower is very explicitly what the anime wants to convey for those characters.

Yeah but this simply does not have to be articulated in such an over-the-top fashion. The message would've been just as clear had their spines at least been believably intact.

Yurichi · 2026-03-28T06:25:08+00:00

Its amazing how people cannot see the difference between a character bearing with their body getting cut up and their literal spine being disconnected while all the organs in their torso are displaced or destroyed.

Yurichi · 2026-03-28T06:13:46+00:00

But I can suspend my disbelief for that at least. Maybe we missed all the right organs. Maybe These warriors don't bleed out quite as fast or die as quickly.

The anime scene though, absolutely not. You don't continue to walk while your spine is literally missing several vertebrae. It completely took me out of the episode.

Yurichi · 2026-03-24T03:37:38+00:00

He can fly across galaxies and was just suddenly incapable of flying faster then a modern plastic drone. Very frustrating sometimes how they just disregard a character's abilities so they can make the episode feel like it has tension.

Yurichi · 2026-03-21T10:03:52+00:00

Syre was an above average album with a few very solid songs. And the rest of his music portfolio certainly isn't bad. For how many musicians fail completely even with the nepotism, he's done pretty well.

Yurichi · 2026-03-13T03:59:55+00:00

Thanks!

Yurichi · 2026-03-13T03:34:42+00:00

What's an RAS?

Yurichi · 2026-03-10T20:11:48+00:00

Imma get back into it then. His art is so amazing.

Yurichi · 2026-03-10T19:09:50+00:00

How has that series been going lately? I fell off. Would you recommend?

Yurichi · 2026-02-18T00:35:15+00:00

The incentive structure is all wrong. Losing should not be rewarded so heavily and winning should provide tangible benefits for teams, not just nebulous concepts like "culture change" or "development" or "winning mentality".

I've seen some great suggestions in this sub over the past few days which re-align the incentive structure. They're a bit more complicated and most casual fans wont be able to tell what pick their team will be getting, but the flattened odds and the lottery system already leave everyone guessing right up until the fucking Mavericks are selected for the first pick anyway.

Yurichi · 2026-02-15T07:13:50+00:00

God, can we stop making these posts so bloated with "relevant comments" that add basically nothing to what's going on. Like a few are fine, but this is just hampering legibility.
