He was a creep and all, but I just feel bad for Stalker A. The problem with death as a punishment is that it prevents people from reflecting on their past actions and possibly changing for the better. This scene also establishes that she's not a "misunderstood/reformed cinnamon roll" or...

And she proceeded to overplay her hand by suggesting to leave Polly behind (as if Polly didn't have a ring of her own anyway).

I like how compared to Diggory's Uncle, Polly focuses on the Why rather than the What. Yes, attacking the God-Lion of a nascent world requires incredible courage. It is also incredibly stupid, regardless of whether it works or not. Uncle Andrew sees the strength; Polly sees the reason (or in...

Diggory's similarity to his Uncle is that they both see the power and majesty first, and only realize the cruelty and callousness later. Polly immediately picked up on the fact that regardless of whether you are royalty or not, you should not drag innocent children around with superhuman strength.

Have you heard of the phrase, "the banality of evil"? You know how in the Harry Potter series, Umbridge is hated even more than Voldemort because while Voldemort's evil is grander in scope, Umbridge is more personal and realistic to what people experience in their everyday lives? C.S Lewis...

Thinking on it now, it's interesting that Sunao is the only person who did Shadow Clone shenanigans with her replica: summoning Nao, dismissing her at will, etc. Every other person treated their replica as a fully fleshed-out life form and probably weren't even aware that they could unsummon...

TBH, I would've done something similar if I had a replica too. Girls with their replica: "Uggh, school sucks! I don't want to go, you do it for me." Guys with their replica: "Shadow clone jutsu! Jump his ass!"

If I saw her, I'd think she was an alien too.

"Humanity First" people when the alien looks like a cute girl:

Me before playing Arc Raiders vs Me after playing Arc Raiders.

We're achieving Tzeentch levels of plotting.

As a friend of mine once said, "Hot solder hurts you, but warm solder insults you." Seriously though, if it's really hot, it's more like a quick jab that you can pull back from, like tapping a hot stove. Whereas warm solder is cool enough to stick to your skin, but still hot enough to hurt you.

I actually like that detail. As someone who does a lot of exploring, paying attention to environmental clues (layout, texture, even smell) and "playing detective" is an underappreciated skill.

Imagine being asked to choose between this, Berserk, or Warhammer Fantasy.

If random drunk people can enter a university building and jack off in the public lounge, then I don't think they'd bat an eye at high schoolers who are just minding their own business. True story btw.

Maybe it's a low bar, but I love how mature and laid-back factory-worker oji-san is (compared to the trope of "young male teacher gets flustered by gyaru student's flirting"). He immediately recognizes Rei's teasing and plays along with it. And "poke your fat friend's jiggly belly" is a more...

When I read the part about "viewing humans as immortal warriors", I realized "oh damn, we're basically the Chosen Undead/Bearer of the Curse/Ashen One/Tarnished". We die over and over, but we always come back. Maybe we'll be fighting with a bow instead of a sword, maybe we'll be using traps...

Based on Sword-Saint/Kensei's testimony (we have no idea whether he's telling the truth or not, but I'm going to lean towards yes because he's the best source we have so far), a guy like Ares would be "destined to die" because of his own nature - he'd pick bigger and more unwinnable fights until...

Hebihara is my spirit animal. Reminds of Stanley from The Office (US). I'm not there to "make friends" or "immerse myself in school spirit"; I just want to get good grades and go home.

This is why, in the grim darkness of the 30th millennium (Unification War period), I will be an AI-hunting tech-priest.
