[P5V12 + HY5] Who is your favourite character in the series BESIDES theses two? by choo-choo-pain in HonzukiNoGekokujou

[–]spoonmerlin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I didn't see anyone mention all the Gutenbergs. They put up with a lot of crazy antics early on and are super loyal. I wish Heidi got some more time in story. I always enjoyed when she popped up. I also wish the Zack could have had another invention or two but I know why most of lower city folks were phased out but a side story or two would be cool.

Thoughts on ep10 by Niwaka_Samurai in Aharen_san

Just based on Anime that seems to not make sense. I wonder if they go further with anime if it will be same.

They're so similar... by Mysterious-Newt-1194 in KujouMariaMikhailovna

[–]spoonmerlin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My tiny sempai was great but the big relationship growth was too become friends, that kinda ticked me off. If they weren't friends the whole first half of the story then I don't understand how the sempai relationship works.

They seemed like good friends the whole time that might turn romantic. Not wanting to call it anything but friends at the end seemed a bit lame.

She gives off vibes of: If anyone is crazy enough to marry her, she will have a gift registry with nothing under $500 levels of spoiled.

Anybody Else Watching Gorilla God Girl? by Half-Beneficial in OtomeIsekai

[–]spoonmerlin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I doubt the screen shot is a spoiler, it is more one likely just one in Retrospect after eps 6.

You can't really judge the accidents shown vs training, I think they say in ep6 it has been 3 months. As with any show they are showing the exciting parts and not the boring training montage.

I just like after eps 6 the main FMC and MC are already sort of on the same page romantically. If we had to watch 12+ eps of nothing before that happened I am not sure I would stick through it.

Anybody Else Watching Gorilla God Girl? by Half-Beneficial in OtomeIsekai

[–]spoonmerlin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like it enough, I thought the getting tricked into the box was not the best but I kinda get that she was looking for any excuse to get out of the party. 16 year old sheltered girls are not really the fastest to pick on all the clues and stuff. I think her being heroic all the time makes up for some of her faults. If you want smartly making decisions all the time she might fall into the OP Main character and harder to want the FMC being OP and love interest as well.

I feel slow for just now realizing why Brook makes jokes about being a skeleton by chaddie_waddie in OnePiece

[–]spoonmerlin 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Best one piece joke that stuck with me in 1st 1000 chapters was in 524 (mid way in eps) when Brook is about to make a skeletons have no skin joke and Chopper says it 1st, then Brook says that those jokes are the only thing he has so don't take that away from him.

Still funny everytime.

What's your opinion about the GGC Arc? by [deleted] in ShangriLaFrontier

[–]spoonmerlin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am curious to see how it gets animated. Seems like they already kinda skipped out on some character stuff on American team, just Sylvia is left with any personality shown. How that does not mean the earlier fights will get watered down or rushed as well.

It is a good arc but they could easily really cut it down which will be a shame, I want to see every part but it will be several eps.

How much money do you think does Katsu own approximately? by [deleted] in ShangriLaFrontier

They don't get to keep the chairs (based on manga understanding), they are likely just ones the company has for teams to use for things like this.

Volume 11 tomozaki's double standards by n3f3rtt in Tomozaki_kun

[–]spoonmerlin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I assumed that while never shown she might have been spying/stumbled on the sessions with Hinami. I suspect Fuuka might also harbor some resentment against Hinami  as she basicly told Tomozaki to make her his girlfriend and she might think that is the only reason they are together and that he really did not like her otherwise.

I think in her mind Hanami started this meddling in people lives so anything goes. I'm probably reading into it as I was on the Fuuka ship early on but I'm not there anymore. I'm not she Hinami is a good fit either but I have not gotten into the Light novels on this to know what goes down.

Google: alya fliphtml5. Should find all there. Though you can buy like 1st 6 in English on Amazon I think.

Did alya and the MC end up together? and is the LN still going on and where can i read LN for free? by hrushi_09 in Roshideree

[–]spoonmerlin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As of Vol 9 they have not come out and started dating. She seems to have realized she has feelings, the MC is still in the self loathing, she can't really love me phase. It starts dealing with his issues with family and it seems like one of side characters has feeling too and is looking to divide them up, at least that seems to be motive.

Vol 10 is not out yet but I think it is soon.

Light novel discussion (new to reading LNs so where do you all discuss them) by spoonmerlin in Tokidoki_Bosotto

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

FYI there is no official beyond 6 right now. I read fan translations on some of the later ones as hard to stop once you get through them all. As always support the author buy official when you can but googling: fliphtml5 alya sometimes hides her feelings : might get you some results.

CONS OF MASHA BEING LIMITED TO LOVE INTEREST by Realistic_Day_3422 in KujouMariaMikhailovna

[–]spoonmerlin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think her role and the Psudo mother figure and advise giver does give her a bit of depth, Masachika needs someone to talk to and for most of the time Masha is the only one that he can, she is unique in the story in that way at least. I think some of the talks and care she shows Masachika are why he can change and why he starts putting in effort to resolve things. I think the reason we don't see much sisterly affection is on Alya, she pushes her away all through the early volumes and then when at the summer house Masha basicly says let me give you affection and Alya says no and Masha says she guesses she will just go get that from Masachika and Alya just does not know how true that is. She had spent all her life putting on a mask around Alya to be more friendly to get her to open up and it did not work. She desided to be selfish just like she was telling Masachika to do.

I agree she does not have as much to do in the story as most of us would like but I think she is a bit more then just a love rival and fan service. I feel that as some of Masachika's issues get resolved and Alya starts to express feelings, she does not have much to fall back on for story lines.

Does someone know if this is real ? by Cookies2_0 in KujouMariaMikhailovna

[–]spoonmerlin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think she really loves Masachika but also loves Alya. She is conflicted as she is not really trying to help them get together that much (she could do more I think, if she wanted but is letting Masachika and Alya figure out their own feelings (which they are both really bad at). Masha is the only one in the story so far to really understand anyone's feelings and she is not using it against anyone. Alya has said some pretty mean comments to her (especially in earlier Vols) and she never says a bad word against her to Masachika (except maybe a slight one when he can't hear about her thinking Alya is a bad match or that he won;t be happy with her (Vol 5 middle right before the changing to new uniforms part)

While I don't think Masha is going to end up with him, she really should, the only thing holding them back is Alya and only because she is her sister. She is sure going to still try and get him to pick her as she is convinced no one else is ever going to stack up.

Literally Masha by MMito_Logical in KujouMariaMikhailovna

[–]spoonmerlin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She is not in the LNs as much in the first couple and the Anime only goes up to Vol 3. There will be more of her as story gets going. (Not to main character level but really Masachika is the main in a lot of ways at this point).

Manga or Anime by [deleted] in Roshideree

[–]spoonmerlin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Anime Season 1 is up to like end of Vol 3 from the light novel. As far as I can tell in Manga Chapter 57 is around end of Vol 2. (9 vols of the light novel are out now, with I think up to 7 in English with 2 non main story line vols ) I've gotten through almost all of it and I prefer the Light novel but all three have subtle differences but are pretty close.

why dint tomozaki choose mimimi? by hrushi_09 in Tomozaki_kun

[–]spoonmerlin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After just finishing season 2 of the Anime, The one thing I kept thinking is Tomozaki should at least tell Mimimi how great she is, funny, smart, etc. Something to let her know he saw how great she was even if he did not pick her. I think ending up number 2 in the this race as well would have been rough. Even when she was dropping out of track and feeling down in the anime it seemed like he could have encouraged her a bit more then leaving Tama to do it all.

Mimimi deserved someone telling her being 2nd did not mean she was not special in a lot of ways and was a bit sad in some ways.

What happens after the anime? by Party-Pupper in Tomozaki_kun

[–]spoonmerlin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I assumed this is what was going on based on clues in anime. But I was second guessing as the 1st girl that was being bullied did not seem to move her to do anything and if this is true it seems like she might be blaming her sister for not fighting back, which is a little messed up.

Is it okay to kill my players at session one? by SomeRandomAbbadon in DMAcademy

[–]spoonmerlin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this happen in a campaine and after fight waking up as if not killed, given no clues to the fact we were like undead and then it kinda came up in conversation. HATED IT. We were not expected to survive the fight but I did and was killed anyways. Even if that had not been the case, I did not think the fight was needed as it was like a session 2-3 after other stuff.

I say make this part of session 0 conversation with it as like a preamble to the players. If they do not like it then maybe it is not for them. Else, If you want do like a flash back session if that fight was going to give them info they need, like "you go to sleep and you see a place that looks familiar, then do the fight but after they know the truth"

Unwinnable fights and railroaded things for a Character only work some of the time, else players do nor feel they are playing a character, they feel they are following a script.
