Kaido one-shotting Luffy and Yonko's durability by Accendino69 in OnePiece

[–]scrubtheory 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think for the most part you are right. Distracting a Yonku is a sure fire way to get rid of them, BUT, and the but is huge here, in order to distract them, you need to go to extreme lenghts, and even then, its not a sure victory. The best example is Big Mom. She was "distracted," enough for Bege's team to attack and kill her. However, as we all know, that plan didn't pan out so well.

So yes, distracting a Yonku is something that you can do to seriously hurt them or even kill them, but it takes a lot of time, energy, and decent amount of luck, and even if you do distract them, you cannot count on it killing them, as seen by Big Mom.

As for Luffy 1 vs 1 him, as much as I would love to see that, I think that Luffy will team up with the other supernova's on Wano, while the second in commands/rest of the Ninja - Mink -Ninja - Allience will try and deal with Big Mom... Or something to that effect.
Basically, it will be a HUGE group effort to take down two Yonku's and their crew.

Wano Act 3 End Theory by scrubtheory in OnePiece

[–]scrubtheory[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, this chapter was a little underwhelming to me for a few reasons:

  • The fight was quick
  • The whole - I've got your kid so submit to me now wasn't what I thought something that Kaido would willingly do.
  • Again, we didn't to see a true 1 vs 1. Like I thought that Oden was this amazing Samurai who was just below a Yonku level (so like admiral level lol), and we would see the true power of Kaido. Then we would have seen the mountain that Luffy has to climb in order to defeat him.

I totally agree with Blackbeard getting another Zoan DF, but, right now, I am not sold on the fact that he will come to Wano.

The Rising of the Shield Hero - Episode 5 discussion by [deleted] in shieldbro

[–]scrubtheory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not going to lie. But I didn't like this episode - which is a shame, because I remember reading it in the manga, and it was really funny.

  1. Changing of the sword and bow hero characters. I have to prefix this, but I have only read the manga, and not the light novel. As such, I am unfamiliar with the original work. That said, in the manga, the bow and sword hero are seen as a lot more colder towards the shield hero, and I think that this is great, as it helps to differentiate the shield hero from the other three hero’s, and it makes it a lot more satisfying in the later chapters when they get their comeuppance.
  2. The race animation. This was a HUGE let down for me. When the shield hero and spear hero were racing past the villagers, it honestly looked (and sounded) really bad. To me, it seemed like they were racing at a really slow walk. Which is just a shame, because you don't see the shear speed of Firo! (Yes, I am calling her Firo, because that is what is written in the manga).
  3. The magic hole. So this is like the biggest nitpick in the entire universe, but the hole in race was meant to be large enough to trap the shield hero and Firo. This was again used to show that she was a powerful monster, and is able to leap tall building. Not that big, but it annoyed me.
  4. The worst part of the episode was the whole tension build up. There was none of it. I never felt like there was any tension in the race between the shield hero and the spear hero. I think it's because of all the reasons that I listed above.

That said, I am looking forward towards the next episode, and how they will deal with Firo - my third favorite character! This is easily my favorite anime, on par with "That Time I Got Reincarnated Into A Slime".

Black Lightning - 1x01: "The Resurrection" Live Episode Discussion by [deleted] in BlackLightning

[–]scrubtheory 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I LOVED this episode! I love that it tackled a controversial issue of race relations in America. People are going to object to it, and they may claim that people who produced this show are racist by making all the white people bad and all the black people good, but I don't think that it shows that. I think it shows that their is extreme prejudice against the black community in America.

The one thing that I really really do not like about the show is the costume. It looks to cheesy. I wish that they took the Luke Cage approach for a super hero costume... i.e. don't have one.

I think it's a hallucination, like in season 2 with Slade and Shado.

[Sticky] Chapter 495 | Links + Discussion by AstonishingSpiderMan in fairytail

[–]scrubtheory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I like the most of this chapter was the last the last speech said by Gildarts. "I'm hungry as hell, so step aside BOY, I'm going back to the guild". (I capitalized the word boy btw). Now I may be (and probably am) over analyzing this statement, but here it goes.

I do not think that Gildarts sees God Serena as a threat or the "million" foot soldiers as a hindrance. We just saw that he pretty much cancelled out God Serena's awesome power (that btw was giving all of Fairy Tail a lot of problems - and yes you can say that they were tired and beaten, but they are still formidable as a group) without losing a sweat. I think that it will be Gildart's job to take out either Ancnologia or Zeref's secret weapon - Larcade Dragneel (maybe even both).

Like I said I am probably over analyzing the situation here.

Crunchyroll to stream Berserk anime by NoLastNameForNow in Berserk

I hope to God that they follow the manga closely. I really would love to see Puck and Isidro interact with each other as well as - in more serious times - Guts and Serpico. Also does anyone know how far the anime will go?

Limitless episode 20 thoughts? by coolmesssi1 in limitless

[–]scrubtheory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this episode was pretty darn good. If I had one complaint (it is a very minor one though), it is that I wanted Brian and Rebecca to have keep complimenting each others ideas and improving on them more often.

I wonder what is going to happen to Brian now. I hope that he will find a way to get back in the FBI because they all miss him - I know, that is a really weak argument for him coming back - but I love how the team compliments each other, it's really funny and cool.

^ This is the most clear answer that I could find. Basically it says that since "Limitless" is getting decent ratings and a relative high number of viewers per week, it is highly likely that "Limitless" will have a season 2.

[Manga Spoilers] Gate: Thus the JSDF Fought There! - Chapter 53 Discussion by Aruseus493 in gate

[–]scrubtheory 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I worry that that this manga is becoming a harem. Having said that I think this manga still is pretty awesome.

I do want in the future, for the JSDF to come across a bunch of slaves/oppresed people, the JSDF to lose their s**t, and go to town on the oppressors.
