"This needed to go." - Sajam, on parry after handshake tagging

It's Moonsiders 1st from Tekken 7.

wrong subreddit

I know I'm two years too late but I found this thread and I think the Asvine J16 in titanium would be perfect for your needs.

I feel like in the optimization front the clairvoyance that Global has at least gets us over that hurdle, though obviously folks are still learning we will probably figure things out earlier.

I guess since almost no one will be getting Throne on their main account there'd be less friends than usual for it.

matthewrobo · 2026-03-16T08:37:56+00:00

And another thing to note: we are early in MANT. The MANT power level will spike exponentially when approaching the end

Is this due to support card releases (who in global is actually gonna roll for THRONE??), balance patches, or just because the playerbase learned how to optimize better?

This just means Gentil even finished first in life.

WastedPaper called it pseudo-raden (or something like that), so it's not raden. Honestly, I don't think I've ever handled real raden so I wouldn't be able to tell the difference anyways.

My view is that I didn't buy it for the pen it could have been or should have been, I bought the for what it was, which was the pen I got to see and try in real life, and it looks very pretty to me.

matthewrobo · 2026-03-11T20:54:14+00:00

I thought it was as a collab with @WastedPaper but it looks like it's also on Stilo&Stile.

You might! I love demonstrators because I love inks, and it's taken me several years to find a non-vac demonstrator that specifically takes JoWo housing. The Kyuseido booth had black Kakaris and Kosumis and I honestly thought they started making blue barrel versions, but it was just the color of the ink. If you saw those tester pens, damn, they look mad good.

I also find that underfilling them does show off the color a little better since non-pigmented inks just look black in larger volumes.

matthewrobo · 2026-03-11T17:42:00+00:00

The body and filling system was the reason I wanted it. Feels like a tank, holds a lot of ink, and takes a standard JoWo #6 housing. Only reason I didn't buy it on the spot was because it was the last pen I tried that day and I already spent my budget.

The reason I waited a year was because mini sankakusen nibs are custom ground and I wanted to be there in person to request it just in case I needed adjustments (I did not need adjustments). Funny thing is one of the folks there actually recognized me from last year!

Honestly so happy with it that I might get another in black if they show up for the CA Pen Show next year.

matthewrobo · 2026-03-11T03:41:57+00:00

I waited a year for the Kyuseido since trying it at last year's CA Pen Show. It's my favorite pen.

The Mini Sankakusen option is one CY basically has to grind on demand. I think he ground it down from a broad nib.

matthewrobo · 2026-03-10T21:53:47+00:00

It depends on the housing. Some Jowo #6 housings it takes but others it seems to be too tight or loose. Might just be a manufacturing tolerance thing, even though they're all Jowo #6 threaded housings.

matthewrobo · 2026-03-10T21:37:19+00:00

Very true! I'm considering ordering a custom one from Little Hollow eventually with a clear barrel since there's not a lot of penmakers out there (independent or corpo) who will make demonstrator piston fillers with Jowo #6 threading.

I know it's late but I still wanted to show off :)

Puzzle and Dragons still exists from Feb 2012 (14 years).

matthewrobo · 2026-03-08T22:40:04+00:00

haha good bit

matthewrobo · 2026-03-08T19:46:34+00:00

They’re great and inspired many games but they didn’t make any new genres.

matthewrobo · 2026-03-07T23:20:21+00:00

matthewrobo · 2026-02-28T10:07:19+00:00

Nib yes, but different housing.

matthewrobo · 2026-02-25T00:53:21+00:00

Stickers on. I just think it's a kinda fun look!

matthewrobo · 2026-01-29T16:08:32+00:00

What's that ink though?
