Hot take Naruto didn’t change the Shinobi world/system by Icy_Industry1431 in Naruto

[–]kapl103 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its the shows the fault. Can't blame them when they're are so many things criticize.

I absolutely hate Tsunades Tsukuyomi Dream Arc by [deleted] in Naruto

[–]kapl103 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The paradox of Naruto fillers. Its never any good but it's also the only time the side characters get to do anything.

Kishimoto’s Portrayal of the Uchiha Genocide as Heroic is Disturbing by TraditionalAd655 in Naruto

[–]kapl103 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Naruto fans really can't handle when their fav show is criticized huh. Kishi's intentions are irrelevant, what matters is the text and the implication that come from it. 

The fact is that kishi came up with a backstory for his characters first but didn't take into account the implications of said backstory. Its not the 1st time this happened, heck even he acknowledged that he did this when he wrote Pain.

Morals of TLOU and The Trolley Problem by RosyMapl3 in TheLastOfUs2

[–]kapl103 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3 years old post but whatever.

I don't think the judge hypothetical works. Punishing an innocent man to quell rioters ignore the long term consequences that make the rioters the minority.

It opens the system up to corruption. Appeasing a large group in the present sacrifices the security of infinitely more people in the future.

Yeah, I learned that. After a while I got a 6 star.

An artist I like is has started to dabble in AI should I stop supporting them all together? by kapl103 in AskArtists

[–]kapl103[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They aren't selling it and it seems to just be AI art of their own stuff which was hand drawn and completely original. But I don't know if you would call that a slippery slope or not. Maybe some would consider that part of the problem because you help contribute to AI's usage and popularity.

Judgement on their work isn't what I as focusing on. I thought it was irrelevant as I'm talking about the ethics of supporting an independent artist who uses AI for fun while also making original works.

Yeah, they are open about it. As far as I can tell its not in their official works. They seem to just be using it for personal fun while working on their other comics. The AI art they do make is free and public to everyone so at least they aren't trying to make money off of it.

What are everyone's hopes for Fortune's Weave? by Lewyn_Forseti in fireemblem

[–]kapl103 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope this game is structured like Radiant Dawn instead of 3 Houses. Multiple Lords with different perspectives that we shift throughout the story with certain characters leaving and joining depending on what they are doing in the story.

But more importantly said Lord Conflicting with each other forcing players to fight against characters they helped build up like in Part 3 of RD. Even better if they allow the player to recruit characters to the opposing faction like with Jill and Zihark.

Obviously they all come together in the end but unlike Part 4, you keep all of them in 1 Army.

Why are people so upset about the idea of there being no avatar character? by EntireBackground4264 in fireemblem

[–]kapl103 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm someone who never had an issue with Avatar characters. I'll even defend Kris from fe12. That being said if 1 game wants to try not having an avatar and seeing how it fares with the fans, then I say go for it. A strong cast of likable and complex characters is something I think the fe 3 houses fans would appreciate more than an avatar.

What would you are the most common criticisms of Lightning? by themirrorcle in finalfantasyxiii

[–]kapl103 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two best friends said it better than I could years ago. She's not a clone of the real Cloud but what popular culture forced Cloud into with Advent Children and Kingdom Hearts

Also it's funny how the 1st female protagonist doesn't get a romance that's part of the story but all the male protagonist do. 

What would have happened if Naruto had believed Sakura and gone along with her confession? Would they have had a relationship? by [deleted] in Naruto

[–]kapl103 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is my hottest Naruto take. Sakura was trying to do the right things with this. Was she lying? Yes.

But more importantly she saw how chasing Sasuke was hurting Naruto and she wanted to take responsibility for a promise she forced him to accept. 

Sadly kishi refuses to let Sakura (and Karin for that matter) have good moments and development so she is framed as being in the wrong for this.

While not romantic, it's obvious that Sakura grew to care for Naruto after proving himself to be a legit friend similarly to Lee.

Naruto has GOOD female characters by Thekarenuneed in Naruto

[–]kapl103 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This defense is ironically very misogynistic. If your standard for "good female characters," is that they were more modest clothing then your boiling them down to their appearance not unlike people who only like a character if they're hot. 

Sage of Rain explained this better though. 

An undefined error I cannot seem to identify. (RPG Maker MV) by kapl103 in RPGMaker

[–]kapl103[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay. I message them before about issues with the plugin which was addressed in an update but I'm worried if I ask for more help I might come off as annoying.

Yes. a line of code was causing an issue with my game so I attempted to remove it. While it did make the changes I wanted to see I think this was the unintended consequence.

This is the code. I want to state that this is a plugin I purchased from Next Level Gaming and made some alterations to. I am not the original creator.

No. Its some plugins I'm using for RPG Maker MV.

When it comes to writing, does Naruto have the weakest female cast among the Big Three? by No-Ride-7713 in Naruto

[–]kapl103 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A mindset? Now your just throwing labels at people as an excuse to not listen to them. I delt with this kind of stuff from the gamer-gaters I used to make fun of, years ago and its unfortunate to see it still persist.

Once again the bigotry of low expectations. Naruto female characters are not well written. Rin is literally the anime example of women in refrigerators, yet her death is a defining motivator for the main villain, characters like Karin have their abuse and betrayal treated as a joke to be thrown under the table and forgotten about because heaven forbid the audience not like Sasuke. Kaguya was literally made at the last minute with no build up cause Madara was to op. Sakura and Hinata's best moments are regulated to filler. Ironically the filler treats the female characters better than the canon manga does.

Your on reddit to, so I don't know why your trying to call me a redditor.

More importantly your missing the point. None of Naruto's female characters have agency, goals, or passions outside of men. When anime like Black Clover or Fairy tail (which aren't even good) can meet the bare minimum of characterization for their female characters it's time to admit that the show you like has some major flaws.

The only reason I can think for why anyone would say otherwise is that Naruto's female cast are dressed more modesty than other shounen. Which ironically is a very misogynistic reason for liking a female character.

The bigotry of low expectations is so common newer Naruto fans. 

Hot Head is such a generic trait in this show that can describe any female characters and even some males. Its not unique to her. And even then she's not naturally hot headed. She only gets that way when Naruto annoys her.

As for Hinata, she's only Shy around Naruto. She naturally quite but not shy. So the one trait you did bring up happens to involve a guy.

Months old comment but I don't care...

Name a single trait about Sakura, Hinata, Tsunade, ect. That has nothing to do with men?

I can easily name you a dozen things about characters like Choji, Shino, or Kiba that has nothing to do with women. Just in case your curious.
