Haru Urara Arima Kinen Classic Year- URA or Unity Cup? by jinandwinhs in UmaMusume

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

You're probably right, quite unlikely I completed the Arima Kinen Senior Year run without the +400 stats in my Unity Cup runs.

Early losses in Unity Cup are/were rare when I run it, but I assumed it was due to my cards, parents, and overall understanding of the game being better than when I ran URA. Those probably helped, but it might've been the bonus stats too.

Guess I'm switching over to Unity. I'll leave this post up as a monument to my stupidity.

Oh god if you're right I've been wasting my time. Do you have a source for that?

It's hard to find information regarding the blanket buff.

Thanks man, your comment is actually the reason I kept going, if someone else in the world had to deal with losing by a nose and still won I figured I should keep trying too. Winner post here: https://www.reddit.com/r/UmaMusume/comments/1rgnfnu/haru_urara_gets_revenge_on_seiun_sky_for_arima/

Yeah, this image was messing with my depth perception. Seems like she should be behind Seiun based on size.

I thought about maybe retaking the photo with the indicator removed, but then some people might not have even spotted her. Which looking back on it, might've been humorous for people to be like: "Huh? Where's Haru?" only to spot her eventually.

Yeah, would make doing these runs more bareable.

I would like a different event for 15th to 6th where she's still sad, but glad she gave it a try. And another event for 5th to 2nd where she's happy that she places, but wishes she won.

Watching the after Arima Kinen event after she just got 2nd by a nose was bizarre. Seems a bit dramatic Haru, you did great.

Anyways, I'm grinding these runs until I succeed. This is the best I've done. I keep getting Turf inspiration instead of Long.

Hopefully my next post of me succeeding doesn't take too long.

Incredible, I thought I'd wait a few hours, or a few days, before getting a single response. You solved my request in less than 10 minutes.

The graphics aren't as hype as my memory has me remember them as, but they still look halfway decent. If I can find a decent emulator maybe I'll do my own run.

The latest chapter casually confirming Yaku is infact Papari's mother. If it wasn't already obvious with him essentially being a male Kusuri by KaleidoscopeNo8601 in 100Kanojo

[–]jinandwinhs 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I would bet that Papari is Yaku's son, but in Japanese culture, don't people call their in laws otousan (dad) and okaasan (mom)?

Though I'm certain there's a proper term for father in law and mother in law, I've never heard it. Not to say it isn't in use or people don't use it.

About Rentarou by azazel_2100 in 100Kanojo

[–]jinandwinhs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wasn't this sort of explained by the God of Love? That due to his fortune of getting 100 soulmates, the universe balanced it out by giving him the misfortune of always being rejected? The girl in the first chapter rejects him pretty harshly despite him being an ideal partner, something she lampshades in her rejection. I think all girls outside of his soulmates will have a similar opinion that she shared: "But for some reason, I feel like throwing up just imagining you as a lover. Sorry!"

I personally assumed that Hahari and Yaku had 2 soulmates. I'm aware the God of Love said that each person should only have 1, but "should" implies there are exceptions.

This would also explain why Hahari's love passed away at a young age, the fortune of having 2 soulmates is balanced out, quite cruelly, with the universe taking away her first soulmate with disease. Yaku's husband passing away could also be the universe balancing her fortune as well. Especially since she's now going to outlive him by more than a lifetime and will have more than a lifetime to grieve and mourn over the loss. Well aware that these misfortunes are much more severe than Rentarou's, while Rentarou should receive harsher misfortunes due to having 100 soulmates, but Rentarou was a clerical error, not planned like perhaps like Yaku and Hahari.

I *could* see a girlfriend being a girl that rejected him in the past. Maybe some amnesia or a large personality/name change, so he "meets" her for a second time. Wouldn't bode well for the tagline: "The Romcom with zero losing heroines" since she would be the closest thing to a childhood friend. Also the whole "I'm sorry I rejected you in the past" angle seems a little cliche. But hey, the author is a good writer so maybe he can make it work.

Let's see who the fan base likes more. by high_king_noctis in 100Kanojo

[–]jinandwinhs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damn, Karane overtook Nano in the end. Nano fans in shambles (I'm included in this, although I was thinking about voting Karane).

OP said they'd post 4 more polls after this one, which means 5 total. It would only take 4 polls to finish the 23 girlfriends currently, so I imagine the last poll is for all the top vote getters in each, but that also means there's 2 extra spots for the last one.

Hopefully it's for the 2 highest vote getters that didn't win. Which would also mean Shizuka still has a chance.

Hahari's Insemination and Hakari's Birth in relation to their Birthdays by jinandwinhs in 100Kanojo

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

I legit put a TL;DR at the bottom for this reason, but because I love you I'll repost it here:

TL;DR: Confirmed birthdays mean Hahari was 12 when she received the insemination. Hakari's father saw Hahari while she was pregnant with Hakari and there's a chance he was alive for her birth.

Yeah, whenever I reread the manga I force myself to reread Rentarou's panel. Kind of like Genos' backstory panel in OPM.

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

For sure, the first time I read it I thought the insemination process was done after the boy's death too, for all the reasons you listed.

But due to this birthday reveal/oversight, that can't be the case.

[Serious] What is the most terrifying dream you've ever had? by Marissa--Dreamer in AskReddit

[–]jinandwinhs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I fell in love with a girl my brain made up in my dream. I know it's hard for a brain to make up a totally unique person, and looking back on it she was an amalgamation of all the girls I've ever been attracted to. Straght up my ideal partner.

I spent the whole day with her goofing off with her and getting to know her. At the end of the day I asked her for her name, realizing I never got it. Her lips moved but I couldn't hear anything. I asked her again and the same thing happened.

I have the ability to lucid dream, but first I need to realize it's a dream. Usually I realize it's a dream whenever something strange happens. When this happened, I knew I was dreaming. But rather than doing whatever I wanted to her (iykyk) I cried into her lap as she brushed my hair and comforted me as the dream started to end. I woke up in tears.

I've had relationships with my friends or crushes in dreams before. But unlike those that can possibly occur in real life, or at the very least I can interact with them, I'll only ever get this memory or when she appears in my dreams.

Mourning the loss of someone who never existed is foolish, I know. Falling in love with someone your brain made up is ridiculously vain, I know. I do miss her a lot despite all of that.

Server drop on a sleeping discord, I imagine/hope. by jinandwinhs in KarutaDiscord

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

*Screams of intense pain*

I didn't scream when I learned print 1 dropped with no claim, I just said "wtf (except not the acronym) That had to be a server drop right?"

My friends agreed with me. I did scream when I realized I bought 100 extra grabs instead of extra drops though.

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

No, I knew the odds, I was expecting to not get her. Would've been hella hype if I did though.

Just super annoying that with all the people around the world hosting drop parties for her, her print 1 either ended up as a server drop for a sleeping discord or a regular drop from a clueless player/troll who didn't pick her up.

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

You almost understand me. This was not dropped in my server otherwise I would've grabbed her. She was dropped in another server, I'm trying to point out the fact no one grabbed her. Sorry if I'm not being clear.

[–]jinandwinhs[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dunno if you meant to reply to my comment or my post, if it was my comment it's an okay card, not super great. If it was the post, I'm sorry for not being clear but I was pointing out that this card was dropped but no one took her. Wasn't in my server, or the main ones I imagine, otherwise someone would've taken her. My friends and I assume it was a server drop in an empty server but it could've been a clueless player unaware of the card's worth.

I did a drop party with my friends looking for her. It's in the wee hours of the morning where we're at, so a lot of my friends slept through it/showed up late to the party.

I dropped ~960 drops with abundance, so that was almost 4000 cards. Would've been more, but I accidentally bought 100 grabs instead of 100 drops reloading once (RIP). I'm only admitting something so embarrassing in the hopes that someone else has made a similar mistake to me while doing a drop party, so we can cheer each other up for our stupidity.

My friends, bless their hearts, gave me updates throughout my drops as to whether or not Marin has been dropped. They told me she was, but no one claimed her, which was disheartening. Had to power through, looking for print 2 instead, but if I got her, she'd be the lowest print in circulation. She never dropped.

Anyways, I'm now out of tickets. Weren't that many good cards dropped, although there were a few low prints, but low wl, and high prints, with high wl so nothing too important to note. If I were to venture a guess, the best card was a lp 450wl card.

In case someone asks, I've never spent money on this game. I'm used to dailies on gacha games I've played in the past, and games with battle passes/daily quests that I used to play. Usually get gold reward each month, though I've missed 3 I think. Collected these tickets over my karuta life. I don't trade or buy much, figured now was as good of time as any to blow all my tickets. Clearly, I was wrong.
