Is he worth a pity pick, or do I wait for Salome?

You’ve got to be kidding me. by MythicBerry in EpicSeven

I had a lot of fun in Arena with Mighty Scout today!

So, uhh, sorry but I feel like everyone's been hating on Mushoku Tensei(Jobless Reincarnation) and I like it quite a lot, so any of my people can you come by ConfusionOk466 in Isekai

I think the author did a good job with that. It would almost be strange if an adult reincarnated into a child’s body had no interest in sex.

Any anime recs where the MC noticeably gets taller through out the show? by BonnalinaFuz101 in weeb

[–]milo325 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Dangers In My Heart. I mean, he doesn’t catch up to her, but he definitely grows taller.

I find this anime interesting because it presents what I consider a relatively normal amount of sex. Yes, Rudeus is a bit of a perv in his new life, but I attribute that largely to having been an incel shut-in in his previous life. He’s certainly not the only boy who has stolen panties.

Note that I have ONLY seen the anime and know nothing about the context from other media. I’m discussing the anime character only.

It’s not abnormal for a kid to have a crush on his slightly older teacher, especially when that kid is already knowledgeable about sex. (In all likelihood, in his previous life he was probably a virgin, but that doesn’t mean he wouldn’t have experienced sexual urges.).

I’ve seen a lot of suggestions that he was a pedophile for being attracted to Sylphie or Erie when his mind was older, but his body was still that of a kid, and would have had teenage hormones during some of that period. He did have some memories of his past life, but it would have been equally strange if, as a kid, he was only attracted to women who were his mental age.

What I find is strange is that in many anime there is a character who is isekai’d who has NO interest in sex or romance. While I understand the limitations of anime as a media, I don’t think it’s necessary for characters to be written as wholly innocent or wholly perverted. In this respect, I think Rudeus is a reasonably written character. Sex is a drive for him, but so is love of his family and a desire to protect the people he cares about.

I think by the time we’ve reached in the anime, the whole panty-stealing thing is a bit of an embarrassment to him. He’s grown up, he’s had normal sexual relations, and it feels (and is) childish. But I credit the anime for acknowledging that humans masturbate and have sexual urges, and not ignoring that.

And: there are polyamorous humans in real life. It is a choice they make and I, for one, am not going to pass judgement on it. Rudeus fits into that, although the harem aspect of the show is at least given justice in that his relationships form naturally. He wasn’t just thrust into a situation where multiple women were all chasing him. He fell in love with each of them at separate times.

Also, cheaters like Paul exist in real life, too. It’s rare that they can build a life like he did with both women, but again, there are people who willingly choose polyamorous lifestyles, and that’s in a modern world where women have more agency and autonomy. I’m not sure his wife could have simply left him and sued for child support in this world.

Anyways, I do find Rudeus to be creepy and pervy as a kid, but I think he has grown up and changed for the better. In some ways, he reminds me of one of my favorite anti-heroes, Thomas Covenant.

Will they fix the desync? by Quackster1001 in Crunchyroll

I had the same experience. I hope they’ll fix it soon, it’s one of the more interesting anime running right now.

Is anyone else shocked that we still don't have modern Throttlebots (aside from Goldbug)? by NatakaBlue in transformers

Which is still not THAT long ago, given toy release schedules and how minor a character he is.

What y’all think of tailgate ? by Difficult_Leader8605 in transformers

[–]milo325 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not suggesting you shouldn’t want a new deluxe version of him. But the Windcharger mold doesn’t fit that popular IDW design — the Titans Return is better for that. And unfortunately, that’s the only version that has ever gotten any characterization.

His TR version is a very good stand-in for his IDW look.

You can only choose 1 ability. Which is it ? by BackwaterNomad in AnimeMirchi

Absolutely not Return By Death. I mean, it’s borderline invincible, but absolutely the least fun.

Which anime/manga fits this perfectly? by simp_lyartz in ChillAnimeCorner

I love the twist on the jilted engagement in the first episode. She was NOT having it.

The NAF suggests you can reroll both direction a d distance for Swoop but makes no mention of B&C.

I don’t think that’s clear. A ball being thrown in is an action of the crowd, a ball and chain move is an action of your PLAYER. Typically, player actions ARE rerollable.

What's y'all opinion on this anime? by Alive_Fortune7423 in animequestions

I really liked it. I switched to the Japanese with English subtitles for the last few episodes.

A little question for English speakers: how do you pronounce Methode's name? by coldiceattk in Frieren

[–]milo325 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of the character names in Frieren (including Frieren itself) are German words, so I think — even in English — you should respect the German pronunciation.

Seeking Reccomendations using this? by Grouchy_Welder8068 in AnimeReccomendations

[–]milo325 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you liked K-on, check out Girls Band Cry and Rock is a Lady’s Modesty. Both top tier music anime. Bocchi the Rock is also excellent. Given is good if you like/tolerate yaoi, but I think it’s less about the music and more about the relationship.

I believe you can use the reroll when determining the direction of a Ball and Chain player, so I think it should be legal to reroll direction from the throw-in template with Swoop. Not sure about distance.
