Doesn't help that even back in the one shot years ago Balgo was the one going on about wanting to see Noel's panties, the anime changing it to that pet thing. So Balgo was from the very beginning meant to have zero development or thought put into, with that as his only desire.

Apparently Kubo will be doing manga releases in season format, which is kind of weird. I do think it's good of him to not do weekly releases again since that destroys mangakas health, but it's kind of a random way to go about releasing a manga series. And Balgo is easily in the top 10 worst characters Kubo has made throughout his entire career. The guy legit has next to no brain function. I get that Kubo is likely going for another airhead type like with Orihime, but even season 1 Orihime was an actual character with a personality and feelings. Balgo is what you'd get if you sucked all of that out of a person. Without a character overhaul I don't see any possible way that you could have readers give a fuck about a character like Balgo or get invested in him to care about his story.

My grandparents old house is the closest to a family house I ever had. Growing up for a long time we kept moving every 1-2 years, that house of theirs was always around though. Then my gramps died back in 2010 and only a couple of months later my grandma sold the house and moved. I miss that house so much, I know for almost 100% certainty that I'll never be able to go inside of it again. That part of town being a similar situation as places like Detroit where up until somewhere between 1960 and 1980 it was a good place to live, but then the whole area went black and now it's insanely dangerous to live there, especially if you're white. On my grandparents block alone they'd have drug dealers and whores making the rounds at night. There was at least one time I remember some guy across the street from the house getting shot. Hell, people used to do drug deals parked right out in front of the house. There was this one guy that apparently was some form of distant cousin of me and my sis' that had a meth lab on the corner of that black. Fortunately no one ever did anything to my grandparents or their house.

Inuyasha sequel Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon
Distinct Lunatic replied to HardcoreHunter's topic in Anime & Manga
The funny thing about this former friend of mine is that he's so very much similar to Quackers, even their voices sound so damn similar. The former friend of mine was just an asshole, he always made it a thing where he wanted to be the cool type of nerd. Him being very into things like anime and Star Wars but he always had a smug way of going about it since he wanted to stay part of the cool crowd, he was just a straight up poser, similar to quackers. He also had a similar character arc to quackers, being a bro at first and someone that you can respect, before throwing you under the boss to fit in better with their chosen people.- 102 replies

Inuyasha sequel Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon
Distinct Lunatic replied to HardcoreHunter's topic in Anime & Manga
That would be an interesting spin on things, if instead of losing her power once a month, if her being quarter demon instead had an effect where she's more similar to Inuyasha back when the tessaiga broke.- 102 replies

Inuyasha sequel Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon
Distinct Lunatic replied to HardcoreHunter's topic in Anime & Manga
I remember back in my sophomore year of high school, I'm pretty sure I was 16 at the time of this, but there was this one school friend of mine I had some class with. In that class me, him, and two girls were talking about anime, Inuyasha was brought up, and I mentioned something along the lines of I got into Inuyasha because Kagome was hot, and my friend responds in a completely disgusted way, singling me out by saying "She's 15 dude!" I wanted to slap that motherfucker. Aside from the fact that it's a fictional character that's a drawing on paper, I was 16 when I said that, and I was 12 back when I started watching Inuyasha on AS. So his statement quite literally was just him trying to get virtue points from the others around him. The thing I find funny is how so few people seemed to care about any of this until this past year when all the pedos in hollywood and the entertainment industry are getting exposed for being pedos, now it's the trendy thing for them to go on a crusade and seek out anything that can be viewed that way and try to police it.- 102 replies

Inuyasha sequel Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon
Distinct Lunatic replied to HardcoreHunter's topic in Anime & Manga
Obviously wanting to do it with real life 13yos and so on is pretty fucked up. Lately though I've been seeing so many people going on crusades in the anime community about underage characters being sexualized. It's fucking drawings on paper, you'd have more of an argument if the character in question was depicted as a loli, but I've seen so many people that go on a witch hunt for art depicting underage characters, such as a lot of the Shippuden versions of Naruto characters. I work with this one guy that he's very much so militant when it comes to anything anime or video game that sexualizes minors. I can see my haters attacking me right now and twisting my words around, but I'll say it again, it's a drawing of a character that doesn't exist. I feel like people only act like they give a shit cause everyone now of days is competing for virtue points.- 102 replies

Inuyasha sequel Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon
Distinct Lunatic replied to HardcoreHunter's topic in Anime & Manga
Moroha is best dog girl. As for the pearls, I watched one guy on youtube that essentially dedicated his channel to Inuyasha/Yashahime there was one video he did that was analyzing the one owl that appears throughout the episodes and what it could mean and symbolize, based around Japanese lore. Don't remember if it was the same video, but he tossed out a theory that the original characters themselves could have been trapped inside those pearls, the girls unaware of that. That one demon got a power up each time he swallowed one, so perhaps its their strength that's making it stronger.- 102 replies

Well, in defense of the Miroku thing, Inuyasha is set in the feudal era, which lasted from 1185-1600, I think they stated somewhere the IY series takes place at least 500 years ago. In the majority of places in the world back then it was fairly common for men to marry girls as young as 12 or 13. Obviously it's not right, but that was the way the world was until the 1900's. And even then it wasn't until near the end of the century before 16-18 became standard around the majority of modern countries. Japan I feel is much more casual about sexualizing little girls, or objectifying them in those ways.

Still not a fair comparison between Miroku and Mineta. Miroku's womanizing is only part of his character, and more so a gag, perpetuated by his curse and desire to have an offspring to go after Naraku should he fail. That gag was only a small part of his character, him acting as the backbone of the group the majority of the time. Mineta's character though is almost exclusively to be a perv and to creep on girls, even little girls like Eri. The only time he showed change was during the battle with Midnight, but as soon as that fight was over he completely reverted back to how he was, showing no growth or improvement. Perhaps if Mineta was a main character like Miroku and not a random reoccurring side character he'd be given a real character arc that would change things for him, but as it stands he's a horribly written character and eye/ear cancer to watch and listen to in the series.

Not all buddhists aim for nirvana. Nirvana is seen as the ultimate goal of buddhism but in reality most aim for the two upper planes, the one of gods, and the demi-god one; also marriage in buddhism can still help certain individuals find enlightenment. Also as for things Miroku has said throughout the series, I'm pretty sure the majority of it was to dodge bullets that came from him being a womanizer, playing up his role as a monk to feign ignorance. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buddhism_and_romantic_relationships
-
The first part is technically true, if Miroku or his family before him just decided not to have kids the curse would have died with them, and not have doomed any other descendant of theirs to a very short life. Guess you could say it's all about pride, them wanting to kill Naraku. The Japanese, especially in the past were borderline autistic when it came to pursuing death. The second part, you do know being a Buddhist monk isn't the same as being a catholic priest or whatever? Monks in Japan could still get married and have kids. I've coincidentally been reading up on Buddhism, and things like marriage and having kids is completely optional. There's some schools of Buddhism where it's not common or expected, but Buddhism is much more open-minded than Christianity or other religions, so if marriage and/or children is something that would bring happiness to the person they're allowed to do so.

LEAVE ZENIGUNDAM ALONE LEAVE HIM ALONE

No surprise really, considering Japan was for the grand majority of its history an insanely cold blooded country, borderline barbarian. It wasn't until after WW2 when they were no longer allowed to have a standing army that they finally began mature. And even then Japanese are very bad at adapting to change, look at how insanely herbivore the average Japanese male has become due to women no longer being weak, and going on to make lives for themselves, they don't know how to adapt to that. Doesn't help that it's to be expected for fathers to have no presence in their family's lives since they're expected to always be working and providing for the family, mothers there idolizing their sons to the point where its an unspoken trend for a lot of Japanese mothers to have their sons first sexual encounters with themselves (can google that shit, not just me making it up) what this leads to in the end is Japanese youths seek out women like their mothers, but girls aren't the same anymore and often times nowhere near like their mother, and that's how you get 20-30+ year olds that never went on a single date with a girl. otaku weebs in western countries idolize Japan, but that's a place I'd never want to live in. Even if I fully knew the language and had the money to make it happen.

Unless something went bad I wouldn't replace anything. If I went blind, deaf, or lost a limb then yes, but other than that, I wouldn't change anything.

Might build a PC instead of getting a new console.
Distinct Lunatic replied to Greeny's topic in Free-For-All
As for me, I do have a Switch and I also have a PS4 but I rarely play either of them. The only thing currently on the Switch that I care for is Fire Emblem 3 houses, and BotW (which I still need to finish). I do consider getting pkmn SS at some point but not sure if I want to or not. Quite literally the only thing I played on my Ps4 in close to two years now was Persona 5 & P5 Royal, but if Sega releases it on Steam like they did P4 I'll more than likely get it on that and more than likely won't ever touch my PS4 again. Honestly I don't think I'm likely at all to buy another console, unless something I absolutely must have comes out. Microsoft has eliminated any slight interest or need for me to get an Xbox since they're putting all their games out on PC. When it comes to Sony there's nothing else I'm interested in. I loved TLOU1 when it came out and might buy it if they do release it on PC as well, but I will never touch TLOU2 or any sequels not even if they were free, Sony can burn in hell for destroying that series. The upcoming Nier game I must own, but more likely than not it'll also be released on PC. Any future console I were to buy would likely be one from Nintendo solely for Zelda and Fire Emblem games.
