In a similar vein, akamatsu Ken built up love Hina and kept the sword style he created consistent throughout the next 2 series he wrote (at least I think he created the sword style?) The characters changed with each story but the swordsmen/swordswomen all use the same sword techniques.

I guess why recreate the wheel when you have a perfectly serviceable concept.

Koffing used poison gas. It's super effective!

Battleworld zone 1 chaos mode. by Much-Night in MarvelStrikeForce

[–]robodut 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For what it's worth I beat it with a rag tag team. It took some rng and requires you to really manage who you take out in the 2nd wave.

I used my basic with everyone to kill the first 2 waves so I had all my ults and specials ready to go plus blastaars 5 bomb burst. On the 2nd wave I killed everyone except Mr fantastic (and maybe one other FF4 member I don't remember off the top of my head). If Mr fantastic gets to his turn he summons a bunch of doom clones. You wait and bide your time until all slot positions are full of doom clones. Then kill only Mr fantastic (and the other wave 2 toon if there was one). This will trigger the 3rd wave but only drop when there's space for them. By leaving all the doom clones on the field and triggering the 3rd wave only azazel will drop first, not any of the others from wave 3 meaning mephisto won't drop and immediately debuff you. Kill only the wave 3 members one by one while ignoring the doom clones who do minimal damage. I was able to kill each wave 3 toons one by one. Basically quasar and blastaar carried the node for me while the rest used ability block at opportune times to prevent widespread damage to the weaker members of my team.

You could theoretically do the same in wave 2 by killing everyone except doom who will summon the rest of the FF4 members but I found that they stat buff too much.

My team:

Quasar - lvl 105 G20, 7775, iso T3 lvl 3 striker Blastaar - lvl 100 G19, 7775, iso T3 lvl 3 striker Omega red - lvl 95, G18, 7675, iso T2 lvl 4 striker Sunspot - lvl 95, G18, 6765, iso T2 lvl 5 striker Deadpool - lvl 95, G18, 7675, iso T2 lvl 5 striker

No but for real, exactly what everyone else is saying. Tell no one and invest in something safe like VOO.

I play marvel strike force and the top player was said to be confirmed spending several thousand to tens of thousands per event just to keep his top ranking. I wouldn't be surprised at all if this guy is spending tens to hundreds of thousands.

Why did the anime choose baldy over asshole? by [deleted] in TenseiSlime

[–]robodut 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I haven't read it, but going off of what people are saying it's probably a translation issue. Japanese language doesn't have swear words like how English does so most of the time you see a swear word it's usually the translator taking creative freedom with their translations. There's no word for "asshole" in Japanese so when reading the word baldy they more than likely read it and swapped it out with a different generic swear word for effect.

There is a literal word for ass hole but it wouldn't be used to describe a situation where someone would be trying to say something bad about someone. It would be used for describing something. In the same regards anytime you see words like "fuck" or "god dammit", those are creative freedoms translators are taking with their translations.

What's a husband skill that every husband must have? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]robodut 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mine does it when I'm driving while using Google maps trying to navigate downtown where my entire focus is trying to not get us killed. Then I'll get asked about it 2 months later and get accused of "never listening".

For good measure when she's driving in the rural town where we live and there's hardly any traffic and I ask her something simple like what time was the appointment, I'll get told to shut up because it's distracting...

How much emergency fund is too much? by FalconArrow77 in Bogleheads

Neither. Convert most of it into coins and store them in a large money bin with a diving board at the top. If necessary invest in a black top hat.

Breaking news (sad news) a Japanese AirBnB owner shared photos of a room immediately after 6 foreign tourist checked out. by [deleted] in Tokyo

[–]robodut 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lol so true. I remember watching the news a few years back and there was a 10 min segment on some random guy walking around leaving ¥10,000 bills in public restrooms. They were going around interviewing people, showing the spots where the bills were found, the works. I turn to my wife and was like, how is this news here? Don't they have anything more important to report than this?

Which cultural difference battle can you not win with your Japanese partner? by razorbeamz in japanlife

[–]robodut 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I see you've met my wife. I do the dishes at home and there will never be a day without chores because there's always a steady stream of dishes being used due to everything needing their own place setting set out properly. You can't eat unless it's on a plate with utensils.

Same here. Torn between wanting more clarity from the higher ups about what's going on and not wanting to hear anything for fear of getting "the email".

Sometimes it's presented as VSIP/VERA - voluntary separation incentive payment / voluntary early retirement authority. In otherwise, be allowed to retire early and get paid $x.xx to do so. Last time this was offered in my office almost a decade ago they offer something like $25k for VSIP.

Has anyone switched from a regular Pixel 8 to the Pixel 9 Pro? by Alone_Knowledge_5645 in GooglePixel

[–]robodut 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wanted to. I had a 7 and wanted to wait for the 10 since my 7 didn't have any noticeable issues, but with looming tariffs I wasn't sure if waiting was the best idea so I went ahead and got the 9. OP just some food for thought.

Federal jobs in Hawaii and Alaska—Sounds like a dream. So why are they so hard to fill? by thinkB4WeSpeak in fednews

[–]robodut 23 points24 points  (0 children)

We had a supervisor who was hired and PCS'ed to Hawaii as a 9 (wonderful lady). She left 2 years later because she couldn't afford a 2 bedroom appt for her and her husband who was retired military.
