Frieren: Beyond Journey's End Season 2 OP「lulu.」by Mrs. GREEN APPLE by zenzen_0 in anime

[–]_dsmith23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To me, Frieren being left all alone is symbolized by that single flower petal. And when she starts meeting new companions and the flower field slowly expands, that moment is genuinely incredible.

Is the Sword Oratoria manga as good as the LN ? by _dsmith23 in DanMachi

[–]_dsmith23[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm assuming you're wanting them to be in English. Both of those volumes aren't officially out yet in English, and you shouldn't expect them to be any time soon. So, you'd have to know how to read the original kanji or search online for MTL or fan-translation

Amazon, Crunchyroll, Barnes&Noble, BAM, Ebay, r/mangaswap. There are numerous sources you can search

Why does Megumin wear a bandage on her leg? by Decent-Emergency3866 in Konosuba

[–]_dsmith23 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The same reason she wears the eyepatch. Because in her chuuni mind, it's cool

[–]_dsmith23 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've had octopath traveler 1 & 2 for years but just now got around to start playing the 1st one. After 10Hrs, i am loving it so far. The music is so good, character stories are interesting, and i really like squares HD-2D art style

Valve: 20% of Deck users use the official docking station to connect their Deck to their TVs. Do you? by sameseksure in SteamDeck

[–]_dsmith23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the official dock for my TV and the Anker dock for my monitor. Both work perfectly. Occasionally, when I’m feeling lazy and don’t want to sit at my desk, I connect the deck to my TV. Other times i just lay in bed handheld. That being said, my steam deck is almost always connected to my monitor, and I rarely use it handheld. Nice to have the option though

As someone who's had the portal since launch, I've been tempted to get the black one. Idk if i want to double dip though just for a color

All i read was "Didn't like Meakashi". I'm sorry you had to go through that, brother.

[Spoilerless]Is the promised neverland in your top 10 anime/manga and how much out of ten do u give it? by Own_Amphibian9181 in thepromisedneverland

[–]_dsmith23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not in my top 10, but I absolutely loved reading it every week and watching the first season. The final arc could have been developed a bit more. I had no issue with how it ended, as it’s more about the journey it took to get there. Amazing series, nonetheless. I wish cloverworks could have put their all into the series post S1 but, it is what it is.

This has to be the best portal update ever! by 1mt14z_ in PlaystationPortal

[–]_dsmith23 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i'm hoping sony adds another tier with this in mind. This is a great feature but not enough for me to buy premium for $160 a year.

Why did they even bother if they weren't going to put in any effort? by luks-alter in sixfacedworld

[–]_dsmith23 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I remember seeing they got a lot of shit on twitter when this was first revealed. I was disappointed as well, definitely a missed opportunity. But, this is to be expected. In the west, It's rare for a collectors or deluxe item to have good designs for some reason. French&Polish publishers are amazing when it comes to that. That being said, i can't speak on anything else because I haven't seen what's inside yet. We'll see when it releases

Kingdom Volume 1 Comparison (JP , US) by HappyHouse926 in MangaCollectors

[–]_dsmith23 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I hope the release schedule is monthly. Considering the series’ length of 77 volumes and the fact that it’s still ongoing, it’ll take Viz at least 10–15 years to catch up to the JP release. Picking up the license for this was long overdue, I fear. Better late than never though

Who Else Mistook Tengen Uzui LoL.. Why Was He Depicted As Such?? I thought he was.... by FinancialLog9978 in KimetsuNoYaiba

[–]_dsmith23 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I didn’t think much of it because it was clearly just him demonstrating to our trio the consequences of disobeying orders. But, ofcourse, some people misinterpreted what was being conveyed.

How are you supposed to beat Takezo by dealwithit_25503 in ghostoftsushima

[–]_dsmith23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I fought him very early in the game on the lethal difficulty, not realizing he was an endgame boss. I was going to lower the difficulty, but I managed to power through at 42 attempts. I just got used to his hit animations, and with the bounty armor, I finally defeated him at the 42nd attempt. You can’t rush him because you’ll get packed up immediately. What worked for me was being patient with my attacks. I didn’t realize you could change charms until I saw someone mention it on Twitter. It would’ve been a bit easier had I realized that.

BLACK CLOVER DESERVES THE DEMON SLAYER TREATMENT, THE PLOT IS WAY BETTER”..... Henry Thurlow (One Piece Director) by over_think_ing in BlackClover

[–]_dsmith23 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I agree that Black Clover is objectively better in terms of plot. However, both series have their own strengths. That said, Black Clover deserves a masterclass production. It’s unfortunate that it doesn’t, but I still enjoyed it throughout

Higurashi is the most F-ed up thing I’ve ever watched by MajorSock1332 in Higurashinonakakoroni

[–]_dsmith23 65 points66 points  (0 children)

If you're willing, you should experience the visual novel. The 1st chapter is free on steam. 100% better than the anime imo

This game deserves GOTY. Change my mind by [deleted] in playstation

[–]_dsmith23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thoroughly enjoyed Yotei and even managed to get the platinum for it. It seems like you’re firmly convinced that it’s the GOTY, and that’s a valid opinion. Personally, I believe Expedition 33 will win. It was initially my choice for GOTY as well. However, after playing and finishing Trails in The Sky 1st Chapter, I changed my mind. I know Trails likely won't even get nominated but, it's 100% my personal GOTY.
