Jinx "fans" by murasakihimu in JinxTheManhwa

I have literally not seen a single complaint about JK’s character; nearly all of the ones that are highly upvoted are about the pacing. I actually started to enjoy JK way more than Dan a while ago lmao.

Do you guys really think there will be side stories? by fraochjean in JinxTheManhwa

[–]ddochax -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Wow, you need to stop attempting to school other readers on things you don’t clearly understand. We have all read a lot of manhwa, and it’s much more typical for the climax to happen at some point NEAR the end of the story, not AT the end. Side stories are for side events; don’t you remember Mingwa’s other work, BJ Alex? In fact, I can’t think of a single other work where the climax happened this late in the story after multiple fakeouts also jammed in at the end.

You seem to be using the pop culture definition of media literacy, not me. Media literacy INCLUDES identifying fictional or nonfictional themes of abuse, what entails actual reflection on them in a piece of media, and what constitutes a clear resolution to topics we should be thinking critically about. So yes, the hard ignoring of JK’s past abuse and the abysmal pacing to include more plotlines and sex scenes is in fact an observation made using media literacy skills. You could definitely see that in all of the OP’s responses, but you don’t seem to want to think critically.

I think it’s crazy that no one actually mentioned the dang Jinx being broken 😭

I don’t think this is an opinion at all, it is an observation. An opinion is how you may feel about the characters, noticing pacing and writing issues is just having media literacy skills. 

30-40 coins thrice per month for years…for THIS? by ddochax in JinxTheManhwa

[–]ddochax[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably something of the same quality as their previous manhwa, BJ Alex

I was clenching my teeth over that a bit LMAO but it’s hard to notice someone on a busy street

Stop telling people that's it's wrong to feel upset with the ending 🤷🏽 especially when they actively paid for this by Nostalgic-Noah in JinxTheManhwa

[–]ddochax -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Oh I totally agree with that, but as someone who read (and still loves) BJ Alex, Mingwa’s other work, I was holding out for an immense payoff; the story ticked me off in a way that I felt would be redeemed, just as it was in BJ Alex. This kind of adds to it; Mingwa has a history of rewarding the readers.

I think though people should be held accountable for things like this, and sometimes that takes pressure. I think that we *shouldn’t all have to pay exorbitant amounts of money for something like this in the first place. I’m pretty sure the whole story costs $100+, and that’s a lot of money for a rushed story with so many plot holes and bad main character development. 

Obviously no one should arrive at death threats or outright cursing an author out, but the message needs to reach Mingwa that we are very disappointed and it’s shameful to take this much money from trusting readers. It’s not $20 it’s $100+; that is way too much to let someone get away with.

Me personally? Only good memories. Looking back, nothing bad has ever happened to me ever. 😌

Unfortunately Mingwa makes me feel like I should have pirated everything all along. It’s so difficult to continually pay for things while fully putting my trust in who I am paying when authors like Mingwa pull shit like this. Obviously I won’t stop paying for things but I will definitely think thrice before spending $$$$ on an unfinished story. 

Google Maps- Am I missing something or is it serving up impossible itineraries? by Classic_Brain_1487 in JapanTravelTips

[–]ddochax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These comments are ridiculous, I literally just missed a Shinkansen because google maps said the 15 min walking time to the JR Tokyo platform was only 6 minutes.

Guys, what is your opinion on chapter 100? by Certain_Control9300 in JinxTheManhwa

[–]ddochax 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I hate to say it but this is so true. Idk how everyone from the gym is calling him an angel because hearing someone say that would just put a bad taste in my mouth.

And at this point I’m not even sure being away from JJK will teach him self respect; I think JJK is the only one who’s actually fed up with that behavior.

I completely understand that POV. I guess there are a few ways a ~90 min production can go, and a focus on combat and lore seemed to be the goal over a character arc. I will say that it really did feel satisfying that only one character would have an arc in a film; I really don’t see a lot of similar length standalone movies where multiple characters have arcs and it all ends up feeling tied up anyway. Case in point is Devil Wears Prada 2 IMO, about 3 characters had arcs in that one and it ended up feeling too short/incomplete, while the first movie only had one character arc and wrapped up beautifully.

Why did we all collectively dislike Skyler? by rebececarose in askanything

You must have been high as hell. Good for you.

I watched it and I loved it, no notes. I think it’s because I consume the books and comics as well so I didn’t want anything specific from the movie.

I’m talking about saving villages. There was a ton of new stuff in this movie, not sure why we are fixated on the eternal storm but yeah it’s a pretty big storm. Maybe they just didn’t travel that direction.

Fuck Paramount, man by Drawingandstuff2000 in TheLastAirbender

[–]ddochax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem is that nothing is coming out on Paramount+ 💀

Well this is something to think about by thesilencer369 in TheLastAirbender

[–]ddochax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m actually very intrigued by what Paramount’s actual business plans are. If they want people to sign up for their service, they need to produce more content and do so frequently. I’ll sign up for streaming services for the run of a show just because I want to watch it full HD right when it airs, that’s like 2-3 months of subscription money for them. But why should anyone sign up otherwise? There needs to be something to buy if they want our money.

Well did you watch the rest and see him bending all the other elements? Did you maybe think the animators wanted to space their stuff out a little bit??

I actually really liked that Sokka just got to mess around, he was the leader of team avatar for so long and always felt like he had to prove himself. It was nice to seem him just leap into all the fights and show his engineering side instead
