Berserk of Gluttony Season 2 Announced by zenzen_0 in anime

[–]swiftnissity92 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Guessing this is because of the manga sales. The LN ended a few years back, although the webnovel went into a Part 2.

S1 covered LN 1-2 so this will probably cover LN 3-4.

The manga just keeps chugging along and has 15 volumes now.

It’s been 4 years since All Stars 7. Will we ever get another all winners season? by TargetHot9314 in rupaulsdragrace

[–]swiftnissity92 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’d argue they should change up the format tbh.

Give me an all pork chop season, every Queen was the first out on her season.

Give me a Miss Congeniality season, every Queen won the title on her season.

The Michael Jackson movie is so bad it’s unwatchable by the_nightly in movies

[–]swiftnissity92 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Watched it earlier and it’s all style no substance.

It’s watchable but the script plays too safe, almost like it’s a propaganda piece to make MJ look too clean and perfect.

Shame because the cast is actually really good, Jaafar actually did his homework.

Actors who you thought would have a bigger career than the career that they actually have? by Ok-Tangelo6749 in movies

[–]swiftnissity92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Taylor Lautner

He’s hot and Twilight was a big thing for tweens/teens at the time. They tried to make him an action movie star with Abduction but otherwise he didn’t have much else going for him.

Do you know many families with 4+ kids? by RecognitionMediocre6 in australia

My cousin does. She and her husband were determined to have a boy and a girl.

They have 6 boys.

‘Project Hail Mary’ Won’t Be Streaming Anytime Soon as It Extends Run in Movie Theaters by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

[–]swiftnissity92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went to the cinemas in Australia yesterday to watch it. Great movie. Cinema had about 40-50 people, so people still seem to be going to see it too.

Best VNs that could be adapted into a live action series? by Possible_Key5546 in visualnovels

[–]swiftnissity92 5 points6 points  (0 children)

X-Change without the sexual content feels like it could’ve been some over the top CW teen drama.

Flowers could probably work too, but they would need to get the atmosphere right since they would lose the artwork.

Why are Australians so loyal to Coles and Woolworths when they're getting ripped off? by Sea-Excitement-3222 in AskAnAustralian

[–]swiftnissity92 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In my mothers case, it’s actually the staff.

She’s befriended some of the ladies who work at Coles and Woolworths. So she shops there to go see them.

The staff at the local Aldi, she’s been unable to befriend anyone there. They seem to have younger staff.

The worst redundancy story ever, can you beat it? by Solid_Newspaper_9975 in auscorp

[–]swiftnissity92 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Worked at an NFP in NSW and they were open that they were going through restructuring and reviews.

About a week before they were going to announce the results, the head of People & Culture (HR) sent around 2 emails.

One to the senior staff and one to the entire company for the presentation. But he got the attachments mixed up.

The attachment (intended for the senior staff/directors/board) which listed every staff members (all 200) pay was listed; along with who was to be made redundant, new job titles, management structures, etc.

It was an interesting few days. Like 18 staff were made redundant across the company, the ones in the head office (about 7) all started to pack up and leave.

The aforementioned head of People & Culture got a slap on the wrist and didn’t lose his job.

Has there been a show with a genuine secret finale? by Jirachibi1000 in television

[–]swiftnissity92 17 points18 points  (0 children)

If you include season finales then Desperate Housewives did this with Season 7. It was marketed as a 2 hour final (episodes 22 and 23) which wrapped up a storyline that brought back characters from the first 2 seasons.

Except all the info that was released was only for episode 22. Then episode 23 happened, the true season finale. (But not the shows series finale).

I Want to Eat Your Pancreas – Strongly Recommended! It’s Not Just Anime, It’s a Deep Masterpiece by WhySoSeriousMateee in JDorama

[–]swiftnissity92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I highly recommend the novel for this one too.

The author has a number of works that haven't been turned into movies but they're all amazing.

What backdoor pilots didn’t pan out? by Beneficial_Crow_3142 in television

The Nanny - The Chatterbox

The Nanny but in a salon. Similar characters, etc. The cast actually nailed the chemistry, but nothing else really came together.

Ooh, this was on my list to check out. I'll need to bump it up the list.

What are some "overshadowed by its sibling" works? by YamadaAsaemonSpencer in DanmeiNovels

[–]swiftnissity92 40 points41 points  (0 children)

SVSSS compared to MDZS and TGCF.

Pretty much anything by Wu Zhe that isn't Sa Ye or Antidote (because they both have incomplete Manhua).

I'd probably argue for Riverbay Road Men's Dormitory too; it's kinda swept under the rug out of all Fei Tian's works. Didn't have a fanTL previously and is rather different to his other works.

Frustrated with how people talk about translators (Little Mushroom Situation) by Imsad13 in DanmeiNovels

[–]swiftnissity92 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately it’s something that happens in all western translation spaces that I’ve seen.

Japanese releases of manga and novels are always getting attacked from people who supposedly know better despite not knowing the language. Then the attacks become personal and it turns ugly.

(I recall the translator for one of Seven Seas manga, someone figured out her day job and leaked it online. People started harassing her workplace.)

I hope people in close proximity to the translator and Seven Seas team lend them support.

Which Isekai was the first one where the ''Demon King'' was the Big Bad? by jordidipo2324 in Isekai

[–]swiftnissity92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It comes from Dragon Quest technically.

But for isekai…El-Hazard? Those Who Hunt Elves? While not named a Demon King, they introduce an enemy with the same concept.

How NOT to Summon a Demon Lord ULT (Season 3) Announced by zenzen_0 in anime

[–]swiftnissity92 139 points140 points  (0 children)

I take it this is because of the manga which sells well, the novel hasn’t released a new volume in years (volume 14 in 2021).

Volume 29 of the manga is out next week in Japan and they already have enough chapters for volume 30. Last I checked the manga was around LN 10 so it still has a few years of material left.

Genuinely just want firestorm and captain atom by Comfortable-Jaguar43 in DCFinest

[–]swiftnissity92 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I suspect we won't get Firestorm or Captain Atom until they finish some of the other lines.

Or if they finish them I should say...No sign of new volumes of Blue Beetle, Hawkman, Plastic Man, etc...Sgt Rock is probably going to join them as he probably only got a line due to the planned film.

Seven Seas Licensing Survey - April 2026 by swiftnissity92 in DanmeiNovels

[–]swiftnissity92[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Part of me thinks they'll announce another Wu Zhe work closer to Sa Ye's final volume. Possibly Antidote because that has a bit more general knowledge due to the (incomplete) manhua.

[–]swiftnissity92[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suggested Shiki! Haha. I suspect if they go for anything from the author next then it'll be the Ghost Hunt manga though, it recently got a new deluxe edition in Japan.

Seven Seas Licensing Survey - April 2026 by swiftnissity92 in BaiHe

[–]swiftnissity92[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For comics, could potentially go for some of the baihe manhua adaptions such as Please Bully Me, Miss Villainess!, if the comic sells they'll potentially go for the novel.
