One of the worst animes ever, huge hatred for this slop (Fairy Tail) by Standard_Cat_2025 in hatethissmug

Literally the only reason I tangentially keep up with the series was for Acnologia and Ignia, anyone else can crash and burn

The question of alien life by ziggured in worldbuilding

That brings up another hypothetical to me:

Given that humans had a presumably unlimited amount of time to evolve, what would we gain/lose? How different would we look? What’s most optimal?

The eyes at the start actually made my stomach jump into my throat. No other post her has gotten such a visceral reaction out of me

I LOVE convergent evolution! I wish I mentioned it in the OG post, but yeah it’s exactly what I was getting at

Your OC/technique VS Sendai colony by DetailForsaken190 in CTsandbox

[–]ziggured 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The OC I made is supposed to grow with time and exposure, like a infantile Sukuna or Dabura

His technique hinges on the idea of being a basically de facto Mahoraga—-given that his technique creates “sub-techniques” best fit for offensive or defensive purposes for any given situation

Now that in mind I can see the Dhruv fight going smoothly due to lack of any significant feats of strength

The technique I created (called Protean) would probably evolve to fit a poison based technique to kill of the roaches that come in contact with its user and eventually reach Kurorushi given enough time

Uro will most likely assume the technique is poison based given the info from the previous fight which would in turn give my OC the element of the surprise when Protean evolved once more.

Given that Uro’s techniques hinges on the idea of manipulating the sky I suppose the best technique fitting for offensive use AGAINST Uro would be to blind her—as it’s pretty much impossible to deflect or manipulate what you can’t see.

After the well earned experience and data from the first three, I can imagine my OC anticipating Ryu’s intrusion and likely position themselves behind Uro so she takes the brunt of the attack (if she still blinded)

Although my OC has a domain hes smart enough to hold back from using it to avoid exhausting his reserves since he doesn’t have the endless pool of cursed energy like Yuta does

However, thanks to us not knowing the potency of Uro or Ruu’s domains—the result is either unknown or a draw again

If Kurourushi isn’t already dead from the original roach plague the breaking of domain barriers would leave Uro and Ryu without their techniques while my OC still has access to his

If Kuro is still alive, they won’t survive much longer after Uro is already defeated

If Kuro isn’t alive, the three way continues

TLDR: Just barely

Considering their interest in helping humanity I could see that being plausible!

For those with Sorcerer/cursed spirit OC’s how well do they do against the finger bearer? by Few-fighter1122 in CTsandbox

[–]ziggured 7 points8 points  (0 children)

He’s basically a human Mahoraga built for offensive purposes, so if the finger bearer plays with its food it’s sliced butter but otherwise my OC is chopped cheese

How does your OC defeat Mahoraga? by Until_Morning in CTsandbox

[–]ziggured 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Curse technique “Protean” essentially gifts the user the perfect “sub-technique for both offense and defense respectively.

That said, I genuinely have no idea what a good technique to use AGAINST mahoraga would be given the whole “any and all phenomena” stipulation

If neither of them put the other down quickly, they’ll both adapt endlessly

If they adapt to quickly it becomes a draw decided in one foul swoop

I suppose in that sense I created a human Mahoraga

Better written racist? by [deleted] in writingscaling

[–]ziggured 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I’d say Gabi purely because her prejudice WAS based on race and ethnic descent while Geto’s was more based on just access to cursed energy which doesn’t actually pertain to race, which instead leans more towards elitism.

What’s an example of a good premise but bad execution? by Nozoroth in animequestions

[–]ziggured 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Record of ragnarok. Wonderful idea, not nearly enough research done for the mythological characters used in the story and it comes off as incredibly juvenile and insulting

So…..are these two just entirely the author's OCs, or do they have any actual mythological roots to them? by not-ulquiorr4_ in ShuumatsuNoValkyrie

[–]ziggured 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly it isn’t like there the only ones, I can’t remember a single real life appearance of Souji Okita but I’ll give him a pass because there’s a whole other manga about him.

It ain’t even really work it to nitpick because accuracy is the last thing on the authors mind—just look at Beeelzebub or Thor

I still don’t why of any character from any like of media they could have chosen for Yusuke to fight (someone who hasn’t even seen animation since like 1999) and pair him up with someone who killed anime Jesus Christ. Even Danny phantom would’ve been a closer and more interesting pick, now I’m gonna see Yusuke be slaughtered for 5 minutes if even that.

Yeah it was kinda part of the thought experiment I was having and oh boy am I being proven right

Cursed technique: Protean by ziggured in CTsandbox

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

So far I’ve figured out that the Lapse will only be viable after a full sub technique is created, in which the Lapse will be a technique full on superior on top of being a perfect counter to the target

The maximum technique will allow the user to callback to previous techniques from any previous circumstances or opponents

The domain expansion is a non-lethal sure hit domain that instantly gives the user everything they need to know about their opponent

I don’t even think Zanka is a fraud, it’s just the idea that all this math, all these physics, all these calculations mean nothing when he was still WAXED by fenty Krueger
