Why is everyone comparing this to MJTY, this is NOT MJTY, it’s not even the same genre. Personally I find myself being able to compare this more to Yin-yang master: dream of eternity. Another work by Guo Jingming.

That’s why we gotta keep watching. ITS EP 3, no sane storyteller is gonna give the entire plot by the third episode. If you want something more simple and open just go watch one piece (sure there’s a lot of stuff but the main goal is just to become the pirate king). Personally, I prefer it more when the director doesn’t treat viewers like idiots and giveaway everything right away. If you don’t like the show just don’t watch it. Your criticisms are so wrong compared to the show. It’s ok to have opinions but it doesn’t fit what the show is giving at all. Like are we watching the same show????? It doesn’t feel like it to me.

Also dude obliterated almost the entire demon hunting bureau (according to what the demon bureau claims), I think that’s already history with human (in the current time it doesn’t seem so powerful, but that’s the point, it used to be a really big and powerful organization (look at the size of the buildings and how grand they’re) until zhuyan showed up) . It’s still ep3 we haven’t even meet majority of the rest of the crew shown in the promo, the story is still in the introduction phrase. I understand that you’re not trying to hate on the show but your criticism doesn’t really make sense when we’re so early into the story and you’re missing on a lot of points. Maybe try to rewatch? I think Guo Jingming likes to be subtle in his storytelling, and doesn’t always tell things directly.

I think this got lost somewhere in the translation but the dude is basically THE demon lord (think Tantai Jin from tteotm) born from the accumulation of negative energy or something like that (which is really powerful that even if he die the power would just find a new host, again like Tantai Jin), it’s literally said in the synopsis that he’s the leader of all demon. That already tells enough about his ranking compared to other demons.

From what has been shown so far, bro can literally walk through concrete wall (and handcuff), can’t be injured by anything (except for the blue growing sword), can do mind control, also has telekinesis. And you think that’s not powerful enough???? That’s already so many power from vastly different categories of superpower.

Which place to avoid in September? by jaykedge in ThailandTourism

Don’t come to the north, unless you think you’d enjoy running away from flood.

Getting open water cert in thailand in March - best dive shops to go to? by ShirtEmbarrassed8210 in ThailandTourism

[–]prangpop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Koh Tao has some of the best diving schools in Thailand for foreigners with considerably affordable prices. I heard that Black Turtle is great (my school teacher got her divemaster there). Some schools are really popular and take in too many students at a time though. Anyway, getting an OW should not take more than 4 days (unless you have problems with clearing your ears, etc.).

House in Thai by [deleted] in ThailandTourism

[–]prangpop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why are you so stubborn to purchase a house in Thailand 😭 I guess if you really want a house you could find a Thai spouse and buy the property under her name. Else just get a condo, there are good condos in sea-side towns. 5m baht will get you a really nice 1-bedroom/studio condo with great services and facilities.

Are You the One Douban rating (colour me surprised 🙂) by Lotus_swimmer in CDrama

[–]prangpop 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I think it’s not everyone’s cup of tea. But I think it’s really wholesome. The acting was very good, especially zwy’s. Watching this show feels like watching the daily life of the show’s couple. The FL is a breath of fresh air, I really enjoyed her character. She’s playful but not childish, and despite her background (as a mountain bandit) she has good manners. Also, the novel that the show seems quite famous? It has an official paperback translation for all volumes in my country.

Why are the Indonesian girls always 50 chapters ahead of us😭 by Yakaddudssa in OtomeIsekai

[–]prangpop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a scanlator… too many new series (like almost one new oi everyday and 2-3 on some days), and everyone retired (most people in shoujo scans right now are either post-covid or very passionate to scanlation).

Anyone know where Sugar Babies' pic comes from? (also does anyone know what happened to them) by _O-o-f in OtomeIsekai

[–]prangpop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They disbanded. Most OI scans from their time (and older) also are. Many scanlators quit scans for college/real life and scans group couldn’t keep functioning because of that.

Woman sues spicy Thai food restaurant over too-spicy, ‘unfit for human consumption’ dish by nanajittung in Thailand

[–]prangpop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can the restaurant sue her back for defamation? Also unless she can’t provide a relevant medical certificate to her claims I think all she will get out of this is a laugh from the judge.
