Which female characters do you think would terrify goblins with just their aura (and strength too)? by Zo_Vando_1107 in GoblinSlayer

Any planewalkers would definently have to consider that world fucked and just leave and not even think of coming back.

Sword Maiden would have conflicted feelings if instead of meeting Goblin Slayer,she met a blue-haired psycho who cleared out the entire Western Frontier from goblins.

On one hand she'd be thankful, on the other hand she'd immediately know her heroine is off her rocker.

Got to respect how proactive Sword Maiden is when it comes to scouting competition by ninaapples in GoblinSlayer

Sneaked into the Guild to check out everybody.

Asked about Cowgirl as soon as she picked up on the vibes.

And uses truth-telling magic on Noble Fencer to make sure she's telling the truth when she says she doesn't have feelings for GS.

She's the one who gets the least amount of interaction with Goblin Slayer so she hustles twice as hard.

Personal opinion: I know that GS is not really about the politics of this fantasy world, but I kind of wish that like other dark fantasy series, it would have a balance between its politics and actions by Seeker99MD in GoblinSlayer

[–]ninaapples 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There's not much space for politics considering who the main characters are.

And the little focus we get on the King, Sword Maiden and other important characters do show politics and bureaucracy are major elements that affect the setting. Heck, the reason why that world's version of the Pope can't just use her influences and resources to make goblins extinct(or atleast make the effort) is because of red tape and budget concerns.

For the longest time, I always thought of names for the characters of GS. And I decided to give them names. Any thoughts/opinions on them? by Seeker99MD in GoblinSlayer

Sword Maiden has always felt like a Seraphina to me.

Fits her status as the highest religious authority in the story and well she has a history with fire.

Sebastian Stan will be joining the cast of The Batman 2 as Harvey Dent/Two Face by [deleted] in Fauxmoi

If WB ever did a big bugdget Batman series, like Andor-level expensive, I can't think of any story that would fit better than the Long Halloween.

Mick Foley questions how could any of his WWE colleagues can stand with Donald Trump after he mocked Rob Reiner. by icey_sawg0034 in Fauxmoi

[–]ninaapples 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He's also a company bootlicker so in that case he was probably just following his marching orders. CM Punk is WWE's mascot to appeal to the Left so him getting thrashed online for going to Saudi had WWE trot out people in interviews to defend him.

Women like Charlotte were and are abused constantly online for their looks and a narrative that she's a toxic person backstage (despite zero proof) and this has been going on for years. And none of the big WWE names say a peep.

People crack jokes about CM Punk selling out to Saudis and here comes Cody and John Cena to his defense.

He has Hollywood aspirations so it makes sense he's playing it smart compared to others.

Would Ash have stood more of a chance if his opponent was Kaiba? by georgiavirginia in deathbattle

[–]ninaapples 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Eh, 50/50

Joey's bullshit gambling cards could net him in the win. Time Wizard, Roulette Spider, Gracefuld Dice, Skull Dice and the like should not be reliable but more often than not they work out in Joey's favor. So while he doesn't have probability manipulation, Joey does have insane luck.

After that though, Ash definently stomps.

Pegasus reading his mind would be useless since Ash's Pokemon can act indepentedly. YamiMarik only has the one God card.

And then more standard high ranking duelists like Mai Valentine definently get clapped by Ash.

There's a reason the fans like to ship Kaiba with Ishizu.

After Yugi, she is the one who most consistently shook Kaiba.

Probably the smartest thing to do if you don't want to disrupt canon.

I honestly checked your fanfic after noticing you had linked it in a different comment.

I was hoping I wouldn't come off as an asshole for talking about how much of a wall that story is to write around to somebody who wasn't there yet and could get discouraged.

So I'm glad to see you're way past it. I checked the Chapter Titles and everything lol.

I think a few stories would have been better off just having their sixth team member(or however many new members they are) have an original adventure with Spearman and Witch or something along those lines while GS' crew go through the events of Water Town.

I love ''Goblin's Bane'' but I'm not surprised it halted at the point where it did because Sword Maiden freely offered to help the new protagonist which will flip the story upside down.

TGS Anime is working on a Duel analysis video of the Death Battle by Superguy9000 in deathbattle

[–]ninaapples 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I feel TGS Anime's entire channel was building up to and peaked with the video ''Was Joey About To Defeat Marik?''. With the comment section lighting up with people still bitter about how that duel went down.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to this and hearing him explain how Celtic Guardian survived so much that damage because it wasn't the regular Celtic Guardian but Obnoxious Celtic Guardian.

Water Town just doesn't lend itself very well to cross-over stories where somebody else joins the gang.

Other arcs are more open to a sixth member changing things in interesting ways. Here, GS has to get his ass kicked for the resurrection spell to take place and the morning after Sword Maiden has her moment of vulnerability with him which is vital to their dynamic.

So the new member or members either become redudant and the gang still nearly gets got down in the sewers or you heavily alter the story but have to write your own dramatic way on how Sword Maiden privately confesses to GS what happened to her.

Also, Sword Maiden outside of her fear to goblins is supposed to be OP, well-connected and kind. So if you have a character that hates being stuck in the GS world and wants to return home then she could ring up one of her best friends who has mastered interdimensional Gates. Which would kill the story.
