    Considering how rare death in One Piece is I was surprised when they killed off Monet and Vergo.

    Also that bomb in Alabasta wouldn't have killed anyone

    It didn’t kill the one guy who ate the blast point blank! Nobody dies in one piece!

    what about Chopper's dad

    Probably ended up on Roger's ship.

    Dr. Hiriluk I mean, who is super dead

    You thought that, then he appears twenty panels later with a bandage on his head.

    Wait, is this a joke or did this actually happen, I can't remember

    Flashback deaths stick dont worry

    Yes, poor dead Sabo.

    That was a metaphorical death of his old life

    That can't be true, Dressrosa took 10 years to finish.

    Thankfully, One Piece is younger than me. It started when I was in first grade.

    Fuck!

    At least it's, slowly, slowly, but progressing it's story and we should be able to see One Piece's ending in our lifetimes.

    That's not the case with some other series...

    Been watching Didn't I Say to Make My Abilities Average in the Next Life? and can't decide if my favorite bit is when Mile uses her storage magic, when Pauline absolutely terrifies someone while smiling, or when Mile suddenly DBZ-rushes someone that underestimated her.

    Shonen time is whack, news at 11.

    Yeah, it happens a lot. Doesn't mean that there aren't egregiously bad examples of it. It's not even like they use action slow mo or anything. Sometimes it's literally people talking to each other for 10x the time they say it's taking. If you're doing that, you're bad at writing.

    Alternatively, it's actually way better when it happens that way.

    If you don't like people having entire formal debates on the nature of competition during the three remaining seconds of a game, I have some bad news for you about the shounen genre.

    I’ve seen people honestly argue that. I’m like, her heart got stabbed through, on-screen!

    Shonen time is whack, news at 11. On Super, I skipped a lot of early episodes, but kinda caught up when it got good. The Goku fights are hype and all, but what I loved are the Vegeta fights since is more than just beating the other guy with an hype song.
    • Vegeta vs. Black was great, since is Vegeta recognizing Goku as his rival, and beating the crap out of Black as the unworthy body snatcher that he is.
    • Vegeta vs. Toppo was better, since it shows how Vegeta changed from the Boo saga. Is one of the reasons why he was so disgusted at Toppo, he saw himself: Someone who thought that abandoning your pride and your convictions makes you strong...when in reality, it makes you weak.
    • On the Tournament of Power, honorable mention goes to 18 vs Ribrianne. The moral is obvious, 18 won because she loves Krilin and her daughter vs Ribrianne that mostly loved herself, but is still very satisfying.
    • And seriously, the fuck was with 17 stealing the whole thing? Because seriously.
    The point with 17 is the end of his character arc, showing how he has changed from a brutal monster to someone with a genuinely, abiding respect for the sanctity of life.

    who also really wants a boat

    The episode immediately after this one is "Hey Reinhard, you may be the most benevolent dictator in history but don't you remember those horrific war crimes you did?".

  • AnzekayAnzekay Registered User regular
    Yeah LotGH has some very meme-worthy lines, but they're all lines that are genuinely used to reflect upon the horrors that the war(s) in the series have inflicted upon billions of people

    many of the characters in the show are extremely self-aware, and it causes crippling issues for them at times

    it's a heavy show but it's so fucking good

    I've only seen the newer Legend of the Galactic Heroes. Anyways, one thing that I love that they get down rather well, is that fleet sizes essentially represent what you'd expect a space faring civilization with multiple colonized world, to throw together. I think a single fleet has thousands of ships.

    Plenty of sci-fi shows, not just anime, where you have the multi-planet civilization and a single fleet barely surpasses a hundred ships. Star Trek and Star Wars both come to mind as being plenty guilty of this. I mean, if you're a multi-planet civilization, it shouldn't be hard to get the personnel and resources to field extremely large fleets; especially, given how much they could automate (be that straight computer control or run by a droid). I'm not entirely sure how badly I should criticize various gundams series on this front. On one hand, the only habitable world they have access to usually the earth, but they have space habitats and permanent human habitation on the moon. So it seems like some of the fleets we see in various gundam series are on the small size.

    Gundam exists to sell model kits of giant robots.

    Big fleets distract from the giant robots.

    Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin has some fleet combat but space ships are very expensive especially when some asshole in a red mobile suit is just going to fly around sinking a whole bunch.

    Anybody seen Scissor Seven on Netflix?

    I'm on the first episode and its weirdly charming despite being hella dumb. I'm not sure it's the send up of the whole Ranked Special People Doing Things anime genre we deserve but eh I'll take it.

    Edit: oh its Chinese I guess.

    Char has not been right in his life.

    One time Char said the sky was blue, but it happened to be during sunset so it was orange.
