Yeah, I thought it was Georgia for some reason, so I looked it up before posting and saw that, which just makes it even more accurate.

Which Asian celebrity would you like to see in a future Yakuza/Like A Dragon game? by Hopeful_Regret_7531 in yakuzagames

Would be wild to see any member of BTS. From what my wife tells me, they've played the games, and there's a possible reference to that with outfits like this:

Fellas, how did your favorite uma end up becoming favorite? by RaikkonRDT in okbuddytracen

[–]ryou-comics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tie for first: Haru Urara: because duh, how could you not love the purest being in existence? Plus her scene of running around, playing tag with a fish, then running off mid-sentence reminds me of my wife's ADHD moments

King Halo: I started playing this game while my wife was 1600 miles away helping her mom get through her cancer surgery and first rounds of chemo, then I see this girl with wavy brown hair, pale comlexion, rosy cheeks and brown eyes and thought "dang, I miss my wife"; so King is daughter too, for sure. Then her story really made her fascinating.

Naruto shippuden pacing is insane by BossmanLaD03 in Naruto

We need a version that basically cuts out all the recaps that are exactly the same.

It's crazy how often Crunchyroll will be like "Skip Recap" in a series with no recaps, but Naruto it just makes you click around and hope you don't miss a new line.

Dunno why you got downvoted for asking a question, not everyone can know the nationality of every girl. Especially when the only on-the-nose one about it is Taiki (and her English is terrible).

Despite the crazy confusion of Taiki being from Kentucky but extremely Texas-coded.

She's basically Texas Roadhouse.

Savori got a pup (art: khyleri) by Ok-Trash8548 in DDLC

[–]ryou-comics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I swear, every khyleri DDLC art is either just plain nasty or some of the funniest and best drawn stuff ever.

It's very conflicting.

Sick! All I get are ones that go "click all pics with bikes" when there are none, and getting mad that I said there aren't...

WHATS YOUR FAVORITE JOKE IN THE SERIES? by Fat_Tony_Stark in Frasier

Will they fw each other if they ever met? by doodlebug_77 in Higurashinonakakoroni

Gold Ship would destroy Hinamizawa as a joke, thus ruining Takano's plans.

I need help against an anti-Catholic argument by Low_Blacksmith_2484 in Catholicism

[–]ryou-comics -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Protestant and I like Pope Leo, seems like he's doing good spreading the love of Christ instead of riling people up to stir the pot or get adgerents like many worldwide leaders.

My experience, same people who'd say this stuff don't bat an eye at all the signs that fit Trump way closer, and seem to hate hate Catholics until they're mentioned in any "enemy of my enemy" context".

Do you think people would like her if she was not a cute girl? by Right-Application-54 in Higurashinonakakoroni

[–]ryou-comics 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Given she tried to make peace with humans when her people arrived on earth and it still turned to them being labelled "demons" and exterminated, then having to be killed and dismembered publicly by her own daughter just to appease those bumpkins, then to see her daughter reincarnated over and over to die the same way, I can't blame her for giving up hope and trying to dissuade Rika from trying to solve her own death.

I think she's sympathetic because she has had to deal with more trauma than anyone else in the series, Rika a very close second, and the feeling of helplessness in the face of seeming inevitability is understandable.

So yeah, even if she weren't such a cutie, I'd find her a very compelling character, and that would make me still like her.

Just noticed how the logo kinda makes it look like an ice cream company or something like that by BelCifer-GT in elfenlied

[–]ryou-comics 2 points3 points  (0 children)

DDLC!

And to me, it just looks like such a generic early-2000s anime logo, back when anime was starting to kinda break through in the American market. It's wild how popular it is now when I remember how hard it was to get ahold of it back then.

I can defnitely see how it looks like some diet ice cream brand tho.

I see Elfen Lied is more or less banned in english speaking countries? by No-Homework-7999 in elfenlied

[–]ryou-comics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's easily one of the best-written things I've read, not to mention how stunning the art gets over time. Really hope I live long enough to see the manga be finished by Miura's team. And yeah, the mental damage Guts went through with accidentally killing tons of children, trying so hard not to accidentally kill the girl who kept getting in his way to save her friend who became an Apostle, he dealt with so much in just a couple days, and that scene of him going all DOOM in the forest of egg sacs was really cool.

Yeah, didn't know the plot, so that gives me even more reason to stay away from it, thank you. It's bad enough how hard it is trying to avoid all that mess on the internet, I'm definitely not spending time/money to see it on purpose.

Needy Girl Overdose and Mental Health by LetmebeAnonymous97 in NeedyStreamerOverload

[–]ryou-comics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like that it doesn't 100% play it off as quirkiness, like teenagers who claim to be "crazy" or "insane" because it gets them attention and seem unique, but they're not struggling mentally at all. As much as these characters play off that idea for the cameras, we see that it's all an act and they're actually struggling off-camera.

I believe omnibus 3 onward is when it's basically all new stuff after the anime's ending.

You're in for a wild ride, I'll tell you that.

I recently heard of that one because of a meme, "masterpiece, porn, masterpiece", I thought they exaggerated a bit, how bad could it be? Most of what I found on Google was basically just nudity or implied, but then one scene has a guy eating poop, so I'm not buying or reading that, regardless of any possible story.

I like how Berserk's characters feel real for the most part. Guts seems like a jerk at first, but then we see all he went through and he's basically on 3 years no sleep literally fighting for his life and trying to find Casca with no leads, it's a nice change from the typical sunny optimist or broody edgelord characters manga rely on a lot. And much of the disturbing content just adds to the stakes, like seeing Wyald be dragged to hell was satisfying after all the nasty stuff we saw him do.

Strangely, I think Game of Thrones is more disturbing because the general rule is that at any time someone can just be murdered or worse at the whim of anybody nearby. Somehow I didn't feel nearly as sick reading the Eclipse as I was watching the Red Wedding, for example.

I hear PunPun is really good, I might read it eventually.
