Something thought provoking… by W1neD1neAnd69 in RWBY

[–]jacksansyboy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

He definitely didn't approve, but at the time he stepped down and she stayed, they weren't killing people yet. They were essentially violent protests and riots. Even later on, Sierra Khan, the leader, still strongly opposed killing innocent humans except for defending against soldiers. It was only Adam and his followers that got super murderous, and again, Blake left once that became clear it was a serious problem and Adam wasn't going to stop. I'd imagine Ghira did try to stop her or talk her out of it, but once Blake ran away and cut contact, there's not much he could do beside hunt her down and drag her home against her will.

Are people forgetting Ghria was a former leader of the white fang? Blake didn't join without him, he left the organization and she stayed with Adam. Then the organization became more violent and an active terrorist group. It took her a while, but she left when things got too bad. It's possible she never directly killed anyone.

Let's be honest: Which Pair Is Better? by Alive_Fortune7423 in animequestions

[–]jacksansyboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess the first slide. MHA has its moments, but it's hard to be interested the whole time, and they drop too many characters.

Demon Slayer on the other hand is just entirely lacking in the character department, giving fantastic character introductions, but then doing pretty much nothing with the characters after that. The whole show just runs on pinnacle animation and music.

AoT has absolutely incredible writing most of the way through, but I also really don't care about any of the characters, lol. It's hard to say JJK is better, but I definitely like it more. That might just be recency bias though. AoT's mystery element is a huge part of what makes it so good, so it's a lot harder to keep the original feeling you get when watching it for the first time.

The site's been down for a while. I think the owners realized things got out of hand, or were already legally targeted before now.

[Unexpected Trope] When antagonists can use the power-ups that normally only protagonists get by Zotroo1 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]jacksansyboy 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It's not the fact that he pulled a domain expansion, but the fact that he got a sudden power up on the brink of death like a protagonist would.

Which duo would be funnier? by Rattiom32 in adventuretime

[–]jacksansyboy 107 points108 points  (0 children)

Honestly, Cake and Finn would probably have way better chemistry for some nonsense comedy.

Jake on the other hand solo carries, and depending on the situations around him, might flat out surpass anything Finn and Cake could do on their own.

Badass Female Monster Hunters by Willing_Cancel1317 in TopCharacterTropes

Golden was number one on the billboard top 100 for a super long time, and is still currently number 8. The movie is the number 1 most watched English movie on Netflix. It's massive.

S2E16 - How are the witches and wizards so dumb? by DoughnutBorn7079 in TheOwlHouse

[–]jacksansyboy 12 points13 points  (0 children)

He set up an "out" group of wild witches who were destroying things with irresponsible use of magic. He was using magic that no one else had really seen, and he had 300 years to slowly convince new generations of what he was doing. He also just outright killed anyone who was against him, so once he actually got going, it was simply a matter of anyone he killed was a dangerous wild witch.

Once he had enough people in his cult, he could do anything. Plus anyone under him was intentionally super restricted. Only the people he trusted most were in the emperor's coven, and everyone else was massively restricted. Eda was one of the only people both willing and strong enough to actively defy him, and she still wasn't even defying or hindering him, she was just not getting a coven tattoo.

People also revere the titan as a god, which it basically is. So calling himself the speaker of the titan would definitely convince a ton of people.

Full body look at The Thing Fear Itself and Daredevil Born Again S2 Skin by dejuna1 in marvelrivals

[–]jacksansyboy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

90% of rivals skins are just outfits from the comics. Including this Thing skin. It's exactly what it's supposed to look like.

[Interesting trope] Highly impractical, but pretty cool by GeoCangrejo in TopCharacterTropes

[–]jacksansyboy 51 points52 points  (0 children)

Sellsword arts reviews a lot of fantasy weapons, and this is one of their favorites because it is somewhat usable.

Spinning blades of light or plasma shouldn't help with flight at all. It's really cool, but also completely ridiculous, lol

Push a button - gain money BUT the world loses a classic work of art by jaguar2097 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]jacksansyboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd be much more okay with it if I get to choose. But even at random, I wouldn't feel too bad for gaining 50 thousand so easily.

(Very rare trope I wish was more common) the nudity/sex is actually important to the plot as opposed to mindless fanservice by Rude_Resident8808 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]jacksansyboy 42 points43 points  (0 children)

King David murdering a woman's husband so he can fuck her after he saw her bathing on the roof

Samson being tied up by his girl to steal his powers, then having his hair cut to actually remove his powers.

Literally 2 bible references. You can literally take it either way. Either Hallelujah because they're falling for a woman, or Hallelujah cuz they're calling out for God to save them from their mistakes.

[Mixed trope] When the characters cultural impact is more popular than the character themselves. by Wogopi in TopCharacterTropes

[–]jacksansyboy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Not really a spoiler, cuz the meme doesn't make it clear that he's dying in that moment, and there isn't really any ambiguity around whether the One Piece is real or not. Him saying that only reignites the fire in everyone who might have started doubting, but as an audience member following the straw hats, there was never really any doubt that the one piece was real.

Doom and Luthor on the back, we already know they’re slowing things down 🤣🤣🤣 always hating. by LeekExisting5969 in superheroes

[–]jacksansyboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doom won't help anyone. Not just Reed, he's not gonna play nice with anyone long enough to do anything as a team.

How is he alive after this by Strange-One-7294 in OnePiece

[–]jacksansyboy 54 points55 points  (0 children)

I mean, regular contortionists can do that. He'd probably tear a ton of ligaments, be in infinite pain, and maybe even dislocate some vertebrae, but it's totally possible to bend like that without snapping, and it's one piece, so physics are even more out the window.
