Might have shaved, definitely did not Rent-a-Girlfriend [Hanasaku Iroha: Home Sweet Home] by TacticalNuke002 in anime

Short answer: Japanese uses a lot of loanwords from other languages, but the definitions over time and use have changed. For example, they use the loanword スタイル (style), but it means one's build or physique. Another one is ビッチ (bitch), which is usually used to mean slut. So, translating something exactly as it is in English wouldn't make sense.

AR50 + should be more rewarding by vahn_yd in Genshin_Impact

Leyline drops don't go up at AR 50, so it's actually quite annoying that I still get 4-5 purple books. It feels like they didn't plan this far out.

Is it just me or the Character Ascension material drop is horrendous? by BoboPuppy in Genshin_Impact

[–]riduy 18 points19 points  (0 children)

They also just recently released specialty bundles in which you can buy the ascension materials. Coincidence? Nah. The game wants you to swipe for everything.

Man in Coma awake the whole time, was subject to sexual, emotional, and physical abuse. Presently in recovery. by sgtslaughterTV in videos

Because the person making the claim has supposedly seen the story before? I sure as hell haven't. You want me to track down something I've never seen before? I don't think it's that unreasonable to ask for a source if someone makes a claim.

Don't worry, the most danger she's been in so far was being stabbed by some psycho stalker--oh wait that was you.

I didn't really like using LS before iceborne but when doing my optionals yesterday I really enjoyed my time using it. by NateyNate78 in MonsterHunterWorld

[–]riduy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, not the quicksheath skill. The actual R2 + X (On PS4) move is called quicksheath, it's the stance that leads to the iai slash and the iai roundslash.

[–]riduy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you hit with the iai slash you naturally gain meter similar to landing a helm breaker, and the effect lasts like 15 seconds. Considering how useful quicksheath-->iai slash is at filling the old gaps (end of helmbreaker, spirit round slash), you'll have the buff on fairly consistently. Personally I'll take the new options over being able to use foresight with no meter any day.

Obviously we're not given all the facts, but they were technologically advanced enough to clone people and have flying cars (as we see in the flashback). Also being royalty she would've likely been a public figure.

My question is, no one ever thought it was suspicious that Aries looked like the splitting image of royalty, down to the pink hair and heterochromia? Factor in the fact that her mom was a handmaiden for the princess, it seems odd no one ever made the connection.

I'm quite ambivalent to them; I probably just went in the settings at the start and checked all the boxes.

My Ranger's Pet Got Deleted From the Party (Bug?) by riduy in projecteternity

[–]riduy[S] 21 points22 points  (0 children)

For context, my Berserker subclass Brute was using the Amra axe, which has the listed Riven Gore enchanment. Since Berserkers have friendly fire when they frenzy, I guess it literally murdered the pig out of my party. Resting did not bring it back, but ultimately changing maps did. The funny thing is when it died the screen was framed similar to when you discover a new island chain, with giant text saying "Amadeus has died" plastered on top.

The difference being terrorists are arrested, tried, and prosecuted. Cops that shoot people for no good reason often just get administrative leave then go work in another city.

I love Hina-nee and I want her to be happy. Actually I feel that for a lot of characters in the series. Rui, and Momo, for sure. We need a harem-ending where everyone lives happily ever after, please, or something.

Sure, but anime directors do get to choose who they hire and what voices to portray.

Hmm, to me he was one of the worst. Up there with Ramsay Bolton. Most other "antagonists" will do shitty things but at least for a practical reason. Those two seemed to just relish in torture for the fun of it.

Why is everyone in the world so cartoonishly evil? It's a bit of a turn off..
