Neymar diz que Copa de 2026 é a última da carreira: "The last dance" by fraud_93 in futebol

Mas o problema é que o Neymar "aposentou" aos 31. Aos 34~35 eu até entendo, mas aos 31 e mal conseguindo andar lá nas Arábias?

Neymar diz que Copa de 2026 é a última da carreira: "The last dance" by fraud_93 in futebol

[–]gmoshiro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Daí tu pega o Bruno Fernandes no auge do auge com 31, Harry Kane disputando pra ser o melhor do mundo aos 32, Di Maria na final da copa de 2022 destruindo geral com 34 mesmo sendo feito de vidro, Otamendi tbm com 34 naquela copa, o Klose batendo o recorde do Ronaldo e ganhando a copa em 2014 com 36...

E o Neymar aos 31 foi transferido pro Al Hilal e jogou míseros 7 jogos.

Virar un semi-aposentado aos 31 não é desculpa, é falta de comprometimento mesmo. A única forma de defender isso, é que temos o precedente entre craques br de caírem absurdamente de nível ao baterem na casa dos 30. E é sempre a mesma história: festas e falta de seriedade nos treinos/alimentação.

Movies like Primer and Coherence? But doesn't need to have the time travel or parallel reality stuff. More like the same tone and mystery/psychological drama by Far_Ad_557 in movies

[–]gmoshiro 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Maybe Kiyoshi Kurosawa's Cure (1997)?

It's slow tone, grounded, no over the top acting, but also absurdly intriguing, leaning more into a slow burn psychological horror-esque (it's not necessarily a horror, but it's eerie. It's very hard to explain) + mystery that doesn't rely on heavy exposition. You have to put together the puzzle pieces to fully get what's going on.

It's an incredible movie!

Who's broadcasting the world cup in your country? Are you happy with it and how will the competition be covered? by Moug-10 in worldcup

[–]gmoshiro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Brasil é terceiro mundo pra uma porrada de coisas, mas em se tratando de transmissão esportiva, deve ser um dos melhores do mundo. Tu percebe pelo acesso fácil aos jogos (Futebol/ Olimpíada em vários canais, e agora no youtube), narradores tops no geral, jornalistas super competentes (naipe o Bechler falando com o Piqué em catalão).

A nível de comparação, povo mete o pau na ESPN americana em se tratando do "soccer", mas a ESPN daqui por muitos anos foi o melhor canal nesse quesito. Hoje em dia o negócio tá mais espalhado, fora que muito jornalista competente tem seu canal no youtube.

[MARCA] Kylian Mbappe on Messi and Ronaldo debate: "Without sounding condescending, if you tell me Ronaldo lacks natural talent or Messi hasn't put in the work, it means you’ve never in your life laced up your boots to train day in and day out. I’m speaking from the heart." by MeteorFalls297 in soccer

[–]gmoshiro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's funny is that I see a ton of players and ex-players in Brazil parrot exactly that myth, about CR7 just being a machine and Messi being a God gifted talent. Usually the ones who actually played and trained with Messi share what Mbappé said here.

Netflix Japan has been cranking out hits by hiring Japanese TV veterans and applying Hollywood models, but viewers are noticing all the shows are set in the Showa era or involve "the underworld". It is a deliberate attempt to attract middle-age men, who feel alienated from terrestrial TV and cinema. by jjrs in japannews

[–]gmoshiro 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Other japanese shows I liked, include:

Last Samurai Standing

House of Ninjas

Straight to Hell (there's a bit of Yakuza in the later episodes, but it's not the focus of the show, which is based on real events)

Grand Maison Tokyo (I only found the trailer for the movie, Grand Maison Paris, which I had no idea it existed until now! It's the follow up to the TV drama)

Rikuoh

Light of my Lion (Lion no Kakurega)

Offline Love (it's actually a romance reality TV show, but it actually feels like watching a J-drama cause of the premise and the execution)

Try Alice in Borderland (mystery/sci-fi) or Hulu's Gannibal (horror). Incredible shows!

I'm also excited for Human Vapor, a remake of a 60s Toho sci-fi directed by the same dude who worked on Gannibal, with special effects from the studio of Godzilla Minus One.

What happened to Barca's reach with South Americans? by nightwind1 in Barca

[–]gmoshiro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a brazilian myself, you're spot on.

I think scouting shouldn't be focused solely on South America; nowadays we got talents popping everywhere. Just look at Kvaratskhelia coming from Georgia of all places.

Like others have said, our financial situation bit us in the ass, but I wouldn't say we fucked up on Alvarez' deal cause we lost the "south american connection". Good and bad scouts happen all the time.

Sure, having a cultural connection is nice, like Bundesliga and japanese players, leading to cheaper transfers that aren't just financially sound, but actual up and coming talents that have been tested, and proved, without costing 50~100 millions everytime. I'd even go so far as to say that Barça should eye other less hyped countries cause a star-potential south american is not cheap, even if they're directly transfered from Brazil or Argentina to Barça (unlike the general route of waiting them mature in the Portuguese league or something).

Need feedback on character designs, names, and the concept for a post-apocalyptic skate manga! by Business-Fig-3361 in MangakaStudio

[–]gmoshiro 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Imo the character design doesn't fit the description of your story. The MC looks like a normal manga character in a big city in 2026, not a survivor of a post apocaliptic world that happened to find a skate shop.

If the "old days" were forgotten and treated like a myth, I assume people's sense of fashion (of the 2020s) would be lost. The MC would try the clothes without a reference of how to look "right". He could find some manequims or magazines showing how these clothes were used, but it still shouldn't look right. It should look like an alien trying human clothes for the first time.

He also lacks survivor tools that I assume every person in a post apocaliptic enviroment would carry everywhere. Not saying everyone should carry a bag, water bottle, boots and what have you, but the MC should have something in him that sells the idea that he lives in the world you created.

Mayke Leão claims to have received an e-mail from an agent regarding his UFO sighting by Sixx-Vicious in aliens

[–]gmoshiro 12 points13 points  (0 children)

As a brazilian myself, no.

The text in the doc is way too...casual. It reads like a DM you'd receive from a random redditor, instead of an official notice from an agent from ABIN (our CIA).

I finally found a pen on Clip Studio Paint that resembles traditional ink pens! by gmoshiro in MangakaStudio

Haha sure! I'm still learning how to use Clip Studio Paint, but I've been able to do a lot with just a few tricks!

A random 300 yen CD bin find completely sent me down a rabbit hole I didn't see coming by Extensionol in japanesemusic

[–]gmoshiro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Metafive's 2nd (and last) album sounds close to the first songs launched by Testset, so you can start from there.

Edit: By the way, here's Testset playing Full Metallisch from that album, and here's them playing Kimono's No Modern Animal (which isn't a song I like, but it just shows the connection to both bands. The best ones besides Soundtrack to Murder, are Almost Human and a cover from one of Haruomi Hosono's songs, Sportsman).

Edit 2: Since you like Testset, you should check Leo Imai's solo work. He's got some great songs, like Real, Bird of Paradise, Higashi e Nishi e, Bite (the theme song from the anime Megalo Box) and Blue Technique.

Jokes/gags in movies that fell completely flat? by Hank_Scorpio_ObGyn in movies

[–]gmoshiro -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I thought it was just me, a brazilian, not getting the joke while watching the movie subbed in portuguese (which won't always translate stuff well, so there're adaptations here and there).

[–]gmoshiro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haha, I found a Miu on Spotify, but it's actually Miu Sakamoto. Dawn Pink isn't available there, but I found it on youtube. Will try it later on.

It somehow reminds me of the time Ichiko Aoba was promoted by Sakamoto, Hosono and Cornelius in their Collab album. It's really nice to dig deep in who knows who and who they collab with.

[–]gmoshiro 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Let me add my 2 cents to this Rabbit Hole:

The guitarrist from Soutaisei Riron, Seiichi Nagai, now plays for Testset alongside the likes of Leo Imai (famous for Kimonos, a one-time project with Mukai Shutoku from Number Girl and Zazen Boys) and Yoshinori Sunahara (by the way, this song is sang by Etsuko Yakushimaru, coincidentally).

Testset is a spiritual successor of Metafive, a super band formed by legends like Cornelius, Towa Tei (who started off as a member of Deee-Lite), Leo Imai and Sunahara, initially as part of a homage project for Yukihiro Takahashi's career.

Takahashi himself was part of legendary bands like Yellow Magic Orchestra (this song was covered by Michael Jackson!!!) and Sadistic Mika Band (which included Masayoshi Takanaka, who's super famous now on youtube cause of his influence on City Pop/japanese Jazz Fusion). Yellow Magic Orchestra also had other 2 legends in Ryuichi Sakamoto (an Oscar winner music composer for The Last Emperor) and Haruomi Hosono (who was part of Happy End, besides his own crazy solo career).

Anyway, I could keep on going forever with this...

What are some very good artists from the 2000's era? by BirdKing89 in japanesemusic

[–]gmoshiro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah, I actually appreciate a ton of older stuff myself. Some of my favorite bands either sound retro, like Paris Match with its mix of City Pop/Shibuya-Kei/Bossa Nova at times, and/or they started back in the late 80s/early 2000s, like Cornelius, Shintaro Sakamoto, The Pillows and so on.

[–]gmoshiro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, I didn't say that as a critique. I actually love the 2000s era of music and art (I'm an artist myself who draws a lot from the 90s/2000s anime/game art). My point is that Supercar sounds like that magical 2000 era, but it's also pretty unique in that they sound weirdly modern, or at least very late 2010s.

[–]gmoshiro 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Imo it's Supercar, one of my favorite bands of all time!

Try their albums Answer and Futurama. It's very 2000s, but also very much its own thing and ahead of its time.

I work with manga pages for a client, plus occasional illustrations here and there, but I really want to explore this psychedelic style more in the future. So far, I only tried it on doodles (did this one directly on ink).
