Propaganda under the cut

THE ME THAT BELIEVES IN YOU:

At any point after buying this, make an impassioned speech to someone at your table about their inner strength, the courage to continue, and the fortitude to never surrender. The amount of power you spend goes directly to them and they receive a directly proportional multiplier for their next move (20 power X20 Multiplier etc). If you give them your remaining power, you fucking die my dude, and it’s really sad. Leave the table and get a soda. If you die, that power AND that multiplier are DOUBLED.

What makes it Cool?

come on. youre sacrificing yourself while making a cool speech so your friend can punch a planet to death. bonus points if you quote the original TTGL speech.

Pay to Win:

If you go to Paypal.me/RevRyeBread and send me 1 dollar you can auto roll a 10+, heal harm, tell your gm what happens, or refresh your locked links

What makes it Cool?

it's just plain funny. send the game maker a dollar to do well. the name tells you exactly what you should expect from it and it DELIVERS (so long as you pay)

What’d you think of edgerunners?

It’s really late, I’m in bed, and I can’t word right now so I'll keep it short

Cyberpunk is my favorite show that Studio Trigger has worked on. 

Promare and Edgerunners have revitalized my faith in Trigger. Promare, to me, was a return to form and a return to hype for Trigger; the kind of stuff that I’ve been waiting for Imaishi to direct for years. I’m aware Promare was extremely hit or miss with many people (as trigger works are) but if you sat through that movie in theaters and came out of it hating it and not being able to enjoy the silly. Then we probably wouldn’t be able to watch and enjoy movies together tbh. Shame there are blogs that I respect the opinion of on here that trashed the movie through and through when they watched it but miss me with that negativity and Ebert & Roeper shit. Trigger has known tropes that they love to do and Promare felt to me like a celebration of those tropes rather than a fallback. Sometimes it’s okay if hype makes right you know? Movie was almost like a love letter to those who grew up during the years of ttgl. 

Cyberpunk on the otherhand was something so grounded and densely fucking packed with narrative. My honeymoon period with the show has ended and I still think about how well executed it all was. A show that I would otherwise never expect to be pulled off by Trigger and also the kind of storytelling that I now crave more from Trigger. I’d love to see some more mature, serious, and structured storylines from Imaishi and co. in the future that’s very aware of what it’s trying to be but also not trying to do too much. Imo, and it sucks to say this but Trigger has put out and been involved with a lot of fucking garbage shows. Edgerunners being good for ME as a viewer felt fucking cathartic. I’m not fucking delusional for continuing to get excited for when Trigger announces projects their working on. It’s not just a company that has been on a slow decline after Gurren Lagann with some peaks within the valleys. They can very much still make amazing shows. Dungeon Meshi is going to be so fucking goated from what I’ve seen them do with Cyberpunk. Trigger when they’re given actual direction and great characters to work with is an absolute pleasure  to watch.

I’m aware that not everybody vibed with Edgerunners tho and that’s okay. Its a short series. Its not exactly a feel good story. Its not perfect, I can find flaws if someone asks me to. Its Imaishi but not allowed to go all out and under close collaboration with a completely different company with a different style of storytelling. It’s in collab with a game and company that is incredibly popular to hate. Its also unfortunately plagued with negative public stigma from those that can’t separate the controversies of CDPR from the show itself. Idk where I’m going with this. I’m not nearly as defensive with Edgerunners as I was with Promare but it doesn’t mean I like it any less. I guess I just wanted to say it’s okay if you don’t like it or get the appeal of the show as long as I’m not attacked for liking the show.

I got super off track but yeah I liked it. And I didn’t even get into the story or characters in this ask.

[aokozaki]

Knowledge is knowing that Kirby: Planet Robobot references another mecha story by having Kirby do the Giga Drill Break from TTGL.

True Wisdom is know that Kirby: Planet Robobot references another mecha story, by having the Robobot save Kirby by sending him back home before it shuts down, in much the same way as Baymax at the end of Big Hero Six - which came out two years before the game.

Silver Talks AniManga (26/02/23)

I read a buncha stuff and it’s only been increasing over time and I like yapping about it so gonna start making a post like this every sunday (jump day) so I can dump all my thoughts for the week, stuff is in the order I read it in (best stuff last for the stuff that comes out on sunday), tho sometimes something will be at the top if I did a big catch up or there’s a new series obviously there’s gonna be spoilers under cut sometimes tho not like I expect anyone to actually read these but and sometimes I don’t have much to say about stuff but yeah. tho since this is the first it’s mostly just my overall opinion on them (especially the jump stuff) if something isn’t on here it’s cause I’m either not reading it, or not caught up yet (most likely the latter)

Dandadan Ch94

I was very unsure about dandadan in the first chap cause it made me a bit uncomfortable but it’s actually really good. it’s stupid how incredibly good the art is for a weekly series. it’s currently trucking along a training arc, so not much happened, but all that talk about spirals got my ttgl loving ass very interested in what okarun gonna do in the future

Jojo: The Hol Horse/Josuke spinoff Ch13

I actually started reading this right after I finished P8 cause “well it’s more jojo and there’s only like 11 chaps so not gonna take that long to catch up anyway” and it’s p decent for not being written by araki. as for this chap, ryoko finally saw kakyoin so it’s gonna end sooner than later, tho I obviously never expected it to be that long only 2 or 3 vols, tho I gotta say I’ve really enjoy the characterization they gave dio and showing him recruit his goons from part 3

One Punch Man Ch177

OPM is one of my favourite manga ever so I don’t think there’s much else for me to say. saitama fighting tatsumaki has been very pog, excited to continue seeing this fight, I love tatsumaki so all these recent chaps have been a treat, especially that panel in 176 where saitama squishes her against his chest OOF

Tokyo Underworld Ch32

it’s like an isekai gory survival game,it’s nothing to write home about but it’s also not bad enough to drop and I love danganronpa so I thought it could scratch that itch (it didn’t but oh well). as for the chap, I thought having leonidas and jeanne to go up against was already bad enough for the protags but now cao cao showed up too so good luck to them

Choujin X Ch35

the newest manga from tokyo ghoul’s author, chapters come out when they’re ready and sometimes they’re crazy long cause of that. it’s kinda hard to keep track of cause of that, and cause it’s ishida too lol, but it isn’t bad at all. this chap came after a 4 parter chapter, and it’s a 59 page one, calm down ishida. a big time skip huh? certainly didn’t expect it, chap was mostly the aftermath of the previous battle and then a fastforward in time to where we are now the final shot was cool tho 

PPPPPP Ch70 (Finale)

from the start I never liked the art and never cared about any of the characters. I used to have it at a 5 but I bumped it down to 4 cause I didn’t care about the ending either, especially the rushing to “resolve” the other brothers’ stories in the last few chaps which even ignored some of them. the story was ok at best but way too confusing and hard to follow at some points, even if you didn’t read it weekly but all back to back. all the performances looked cool at least

Ichigoki’s Under Control!! Ch12

it’s a gag manga so it really depends on your sense of humour, but I think it’s really bad, and most people seem too since it always places so low in the rankings. last chap had a huge timeskip so hopefully it’s ending soon. 

The Ichinose Family's Deadly Sins Ch14

another one I haven’t liked since the start. it’s way too edgy for my taste, recently it’s moved on from being edgy for the sake of it and actually doing stuff, but it also feels like it’ll end soon so I’m thankful for that. it has some cool panel composition sometimes tho

Ginka & Glüna Ch23

while the art, especially the action, is good looking most of the time the rest of the manga doesn’t really do anything special and it’s gonna get axed sooner than later so rip to the author

Fabricant 100 Ch11

another one that’ll prob get axed soon. the art isn’t bad, reminds me of fma tbh, but it’s p boring since the mc’s sidekick is so much more powerful than the enemies, the arc from the last few chaps was a bit more interesting and today’s chap wasn’t bad but still not enough to save it I think.

Jiangshi X Ch6

the art’s good but it has felt pretty generic so far, tho today’s chapter moved the plot along a bit so we’ll see, this isn’t on the jump mag so no risk of it getting axed too soon like some other stuff

Tokyo Demon Bride Story Ch24

it’s a shame that’s it getting axed soon instead of one of the 4 I mentioned before. the art’s great, all the designs are fun and the charas are likeable

Cipher Academy Ch13

the nisio series, which I always joke about being rough for the translator, that actually made the current translator quit lmao. while it’s not a series for everyone it’s doing alright in rankings so I hope it sticks around for a good while, I always enjoy getting some nisio stuff when it’s possible. today’s chap had a neat development too

Witch Watch Ch98

a very cute chap today, good for nico finally having some time alone with moi

Blue Box Ch90

I was actually very unsure of blue box when I started it cause if feels so shoujo-y but I actually ended up really liking it a lot and I’m invested in taiki and natsu. today’s chap was incredible too oh my god 

Mashle Ch145

it’s getting an anime in april! and it’s prob gonna adapt the whole manga cause it’ll end soon! it starts off as a comedy manga making fun of “magic school” series but it eventually becomes a very pog battle manga, while still retain some of it’s comedy. it’s currently on the battle against the final villain so not much more left.

The Elusive Samurai Ch99

Matsui’s 3rd series and 3rd hit wao! it’s only a matter of time til it gets an anime too so that’s an incredible track record for him. it’s a period piece with matsui’s usual flair to it, the art is very good, especially some of the more detailed panels he pulls off sometimes. today introduced some new characters and set up the mcs to get some power ups next chap, the big 100, so that was fun

Sakamoto Days Ch108

one of the best things on jump rn and probably getting an anime announcement sometimes this year. I like to describe it as “anime john wick”. the fight coreography, set pieces and everything is just some of the best in any manga, not even just now but that I’ve read ever. really hope it gets picked up by a studio that doesn’t half ass it cause it deserves the love.

Akane-banashi Ch51

currently my favourite series in jump by a long shot!! it’s crazy too cause when it started I was like “eh how are they gonna pull off a manga about rakugo”but they did, oh boy did they. it got recommendations from both oda AND anno on vol 1 and 2 so you know it’s something special. please read it if you haven’t yet. today’s chap was very good as usual, it was the backstory of akane’s main rival

Ayakashi Triangle Ch121

yabuki’s, of TLR fame, newest series, it doesn’t have as many lewd moments but it has more action to make up for it. I really enjoy it at lot but ofc I do it’s yabuki how could I not, his art is just a treat to look at and he knows how to make entertaining manga

[coredrill]

these sprites are so 🤧😩🤲🥰

[estercity]

1+8 for the ask game !

the character everyone gets wrong

. i feel like if i say kamina gurren lagann everyone will laugh at me but i literally can't blame them. me and seni joked about it before but gainax/trigger both looove to frame hero worship as wrong because at the end of the day the people you are idolising are in themselves only human, and then turn around like 'actually? hero worship rules, you were right all along LOOK at this guy transcend death'. kamina is a great example of that. ttgl fans also forget most of his personality is false and carefully maintained to a fault, but 🤷‍♀️

common fandom opinion that everyone is wrong about

i think everyone who watched when marnie was there and tries to argue it was gaybait or marnie and ana had 'romantic tension' because they were desperate for studio ghibli to do a gay love story only to get a story about friendship and familial love should..... go outside. or maybe not be allowed to watch anymore studio ghibli stuff! either works

[one-winged-dreams]

given how much fandom overlap we have i am frankly very curious ❣️

@sshoujo-ais

Between you and Dae, I knew this was gonna be (Extreme) so here we goooo.

WE'RE GONNA START WITH YOKO BECAUSE HOT DAMN Y'ALL ARE SO FUCKING CUTE. Also because TTGL is such a comfort media for me, anyone else who ships in it I attach to like a leech.

Robin and Tashigi are next because -gestures wildly- just all of it. ALL OF IT. GAY PIRATE SQUAD, LET'S GO.

And we're closing with Jeanette because I've come to love that game so fucking much (even though I haven't finished it because my saves didn't survive the great hard drive format of September 2022 OTL). I vibe with her so much because DID reasons, and she deserves a loving gorlfriend so fucking bad. AND THAT'S YOU!

EDIT: I FUCKING FORGOT ABOUT YSAYLE, GODDAMMIT. BUT YES!!!!

So, Gundam: The Witch from Mercury. Um.... the best I can say about it is that it doesnt really sexualize its female characters, it has diverse body types, and there are a lot of important women? Somehow that feels like a pretty low bar yet where anime is concerned its quite high.

Other than that, honestly I just found the show, and I am sad to say this,.. boring. Pretty much everything the show does, you can find another show that does it better. It's kind of an Utena style battle of suitors, but, like, there's also a lot of word salad sci-fi terms being thrown around. The soundtrack is nice but oftentimes what is actually happening does not warrant it at all, like if I had the Lord of the Rings theme playing when I ate an orange of above-average quality. I also tend to hate the "stuttering mess anxiety" trope in anime bc i feel like thats what Japanese writers think anxiety is. And the solutions given to that anxiety are often even less profound.

Idk, if I'm 8 episodes in and still dont have a clue whats *actually* going on, I feel like the show isnt doing its job. I love slow-burn plot discovery shows but thats just not whats going on here, at episode 8 we hardly know any more than we did at 1. For that reason I predict the show will end up having pretty lackluster explanations that are likely slapped into one or two episodes that end up still leaving a ton of open questione that will never be answered because theatrics here are more important than actual content. Thats just my gut feeling.

At this point, I think the only thing that could make the show good, or rather, my cup of tea, would be a TTGL-esque out of nowhere sudden massive change in the status quo. Just something that completely changes the game and directory of the show while also supplying an interesting twist that answers some questions and provides a hook. But 8 episodes in, and no hint of that happening? Idk about this one.
