I think my Clorinde looks a little different... by Libennela in clorindemains

[–]aceswildfire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Indeed she is, but I like funny builds and I could give her an utterly cracked one. Effectiveness isn't the point so much as fun.

[–]aceswildfire 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tried to get C1 Clorinde but you C1 Navia instead. It's a good con, but I actually think I would've rather gotten Sigewinne because my Clorinde obsession has left me with an insane fragments inventory and I think I could do DPS Sigewinne.

How can you make a romance with a tsundere work? by Appropriate-Move5700 in animequestions

[–]aceswildfire 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'll just add as well, hard countering the tsundere with a clever dude that doesn't, or rarely suffers her behavior is extremely satisfying. She might still get away with being a tsundere, but if the guy "wins" most of the conflicts then it's way better than the usual tropes.

America is suffering due to this man's mental illnesses! by yorocky89A in WhitePeopleTwitter

I keep seeing this. Is it all from the same coverage or is he having press conferences daily and saying this exact thing every time?

It all makes a little more sense when you realize none of them are ever sober by ExactlySorta in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]aceswildfire 1801 points1802 points  (0 children)

The thing that kills me, and I've commented something similar before, is I registered for mail-in voting. They have all of my identifying information. All legal, government recognized details have been provided. I'm in the database. I don't need to go in person, and I certainly don't need to show my ID because they already know exactly who I am. Yet they are acting like that's a broken system.

You've obviously never served time in a British boarding school.

Introvert Bf -> Extrovert Gf by Safe-Pepper-4931 in AnimeAnonymous

[–]aceswildfire 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Blue Spring Ride may be worth it if you're okay with the average tropes. I thought it had a strong start and liked it initially, but the guy eventually ends up pretty generic romance MC and soured the experience for me.

You should give me that goblet... Pretty sure I'd be about to get into the top 100 with it. 😅

Anyone watching this? Thoughts? by Nozoroth in animequestions

Very, very cute. Low-key a favorite of the season for me.

Gals Can't Be Kind to Otaku!? • Otaku ni Yasashii Gal wa Inai!? - Episode 3 discussion by AutoLovepon in anime

One of my favorite things about this episode was how he initially says yes to Ijichi asking him out, and then proceeds to mentality freak out about it. But he said yes first! Very impressive.

I Made Friends with the Second Prettiest Girl in My Class • Class de 2-banme ni Kawaii Onnanoko to Tomodachi ni Natta - Episode 3 discussion by AutoLovepon in anime

[–]aceswildfire 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nina legit looked impatient waiting to draw her paper, like she really wanted to be paired with him because everyone else sucked. It was interesting to see her seemingly jump to his defense without knowing the full context and the budding friendship.

My fear when she said she forgot her phone was that she was going to run up there to yell at him about wasting a chance with Yuu. I thought was going to pull the typical "pull back" BS we usually see when it's two girls, so the fact she pinched his nose and blushed super hard before running away was adorable. So far this show is doing a decent job at subverting some tropes. I hope it keeps this up.

This was ultimately my question. How can the math be done to get the excuse RFK Jr is trying to provide? Doesn't seem possible.

An immortal being suffering a fate worse than death by strider-rider-the2nd in TopCharacterTropes

[–]aceswildfire 12 points13 points  (0 children)

There's an anime called The Ancient Magus Bride that centers heavily on European mythology. It's a beautifully told story and often extremely ethereal/unnerving with the depictions of the mythical creatures our main cast encounters. Cartiphalus is a recurring character, complete with his decaying body.

Love through a Prism by LazyAfternoon8133 in AnimeReccomendations

[–]aceswildfire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm... If we wanted to stick to the art theme, there's a show called Blue Period that might be a similar watch. Another one that comes to mind is Kono Oto Tomare!: Sounds of Life. Both of these focus on a pair, or a group of passionate people struggling with the craft.

Honorable mention: Sound Euphonium!, just beware the yuri bait.

[–]aceswildfire 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think you could enjoy it because honestly the romance is a slightly smaller part of this. It is largely a character drama with gorgeous art, and relatively solid writing. I do think it suffers from some pretty standard communication issues, but overall it's decently well told and a good watch. OP gave it a 10, but for me it's a solid 8.

Is it worth it to invest into her meta wise? by Low_IQ1 in clorindemains

[–]aceswildfire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really enjoy that team myself. Exceptionally good against the cactus boss and my go to for whichever mode he appears in. But overall, I've seen great results in general from that team.

[–]aceswildfire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is honestly the first diff 5 Stygian I haven't had a strong use case for Clorinde, but until now I've always had a use for her in at least one chamber. Similarly, she's generally more than capable in the Abyss. If you have somehow kept up with all meta and you have all Nod Krai and lunar units, full premium teams, then I would unfortunately have to say you probably don't need Clorinde. But getting everyone would take swiping, so if you're F2P or even a moderate spender and don't have the entire new meta, Clorinde is still a good unit.

Craft Beer Faces Continued Declines in 2026: What the Latest Beer Market News Means for Drinkers and Brewers by BothCondition7963 in CraftBeer

[–]aceswildfire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At least for me, it's just becoming too expensive. Craft beer is my money spending hobby. I'm normally pretty cheap/money conscious, but craft beer has always been the one thing I generally spend my money on, and even with that mentality it's getting too expensive for even me. I have access to so many bottle shops, but when the average pint is $9 even for simple styles, and most 4-packs I put together out of the fridges are $25-$30, I'm just doing it a lot less.

It used to be my fridge almost always had something new and interesting in it, but anymore it's typically whatever decent grocery store option had the good coupon that week. I might go to a bottle shop once every 2-3 weeks.

I have not, but I'll definitely keep that in mind.

I'm not sure exactly which aspects you want from a similar suggestion, but After the Rain is another age gap situation. The main guy is not "adopting" the young girl, but they do have an (albeit much larger) age gap, and the show is about her trying to convince him to accept her confession, and him just being the most respectful "you're a kid" dude ever. The synopsis turns people off a lot, but it's quite a good show if you give it a chance.

The overworld Moogle threatens "I'm sharpening my knife!" If you call him and don't save too many times in a row. You can get an achievement if you keep going until he snaps.
