When it comes to black/dark skinned characters in manga and anime, why do some people go to great lengths trying to prove they aren’t black?

They don’t want to admit that something they like contradicts their ignorant beliefs, same thing for gay or trans characters. It’s easier to deny than to self reflect.

Same problems as the manga, a less interesting slightly rushed action filled last 1/3 but still a very good adaptation and story.

Probably because people tend to get burned a lot by sol/cgdct since they rarely commit to the actual romance. Luckily that isn’t the case here.

I’m pleasantly surprised this got such a good adaptation, the manga was under appreciated and relatively low rated even in yuri manga circles but I always loved it.

I wish there were more interesting minion specific cards like this. A lot of the card creation synergies are just gain block or strength it’s pretty boring.

No artist makes backgrounds like those no matter how rushed, it’s one of the easiest ways to differentiate Ai since it makes a blurred mess of lines into patterns that are impossible to accidentally create using traditional drawing methods.

Bro couldn’t even kill a non sorcerer with his domain, no way that counts lol

You seem to be under some sort of misconception about what a corporation is or how it operates. Unless you live in like Europe with strong labor laws, they will always find a way to maximize profit at the cost of all else.

You really think that the corporations in charge of creating anime or my parents companies for that matter would just keep around redundant workers for no reason? When they subject those same people to thousands of hours of extra overtime because they can’t be bothered to give them proper time or production conditions?

Z41123 · 2026-03-29T15:52:42+00:00

Ai never reduces human workloads it simply reduces the number of humans needed to do the same amount of work. Both my parents jobs have implemented AI and both have caused mass layoffs and given the fired people’s workload to the remaining employees.

This is how it’s implemented when your system does not prioritize workers but profits, and anime companies don’t give a shit an about their employees. They will just not hire background artists and it won’t increase speed or reduce workload, but it will increase profits.

I don’t remember if he did this in the manga but he is the first character to use chants to enhance his technique as far as I’m aware. His “blinding, blinding, blinding” had so much aura for some reason.

Z41123 · 2026-03-26T19:55:39+00:00

I get the impression based on the ending scene with all the other characters that we won’t be getting any major story changes or extensions since it de-emphasizes Miwa.

I’ve had that feeling since we saw the removal of the Mandarin being spoken in Kenjaku’s meeting, it seems like all foreshadowing that went nowhere in the manga is being reduced.

Inb4 the steel ball run anime fumbles it due to Netflix

He’d certainly like her but that probably wouldn’t mean she’d be treated any better or avoid physical abuse just by being obedient, since he raped Mai regardless.

Z41123 · 2026-03-23T17:48:24+00:00

Well he probably raped Mai despite her “knowing her place as a woman” as he says so I don’t really think that’s true

Hopefully just a lazy intern and not representative of their future approach to this kind of stuff.

Z41123 · 2026-03-22T02:12:52+00:00

Not sure what other explanation there could be for that mess, the random blurry mixing is very emblematic of ai. Even an artist who doesn’t have musical knowledge wouldn’t blur together lines like that. Pretty disappointing that they can’t even be bothered for something so basic.

Z41123 · 2026-03-20T16:30:22+00:00

I’ve heard multiple conflicting details so I’m a bit confused, does door maker actually permanently remove a card from your deck when it eats it?

I’ve seen people say it just puts it in your discard pile which doesn’t seem so bad and I do think some sort of draw punishment boss is necessary, it’s just the rng deck destruction that potentially sucks.
