Japanese fans/audience uses two terms to describe storytelling approach especially in tv shows. Vertical Axis: Stories that advance the main plot. Horizontal Axis: More 'standalone' stories or 'slice of life' stories that expands what it feels like to live in the world.

@Ultrakyriel Sorry, can you explain horizontal vs vertical axis storytelling, I don't often hear that

@DaddyWarpig "Surprisingly, one vehicle can’t do everything in the world. That doesn’t make it completely useless in all situations." Sadly, the USAF continues to forget this.

You also can’t strap a rocket to it and fly it into orbit. And it’s really terrible at setting land speed records out at the Bonneville salt flats. Surprisingly, one vehicle can’t do everything in the world. That doesn’t make it completely useless in all situations. This is a false dichotomy.

wtf are these creatures even talking about now? The reason the A-10 is being passed out is because it’s survivability in any A2/AD environment is abysmal

God does not hate Redditors. God loves all his children. Redditors just can't walk on Holy Ground. For they are cursed, like the vampyri and the moon-wyrd, and the wickedness in their souls fights against the purity vested in land dedicated to righteousness. Still God loves them, for God IS love and we are but lesser bearers of his perfect light.

Redditors shoes keep exploding when they go to weddings and funerals in churches because God hates Redditors

Funny story about this. The only reason why the "Adventurer's Guild" trope exists is due to the video game Wizardry. Fantasy in Japan was not introduced through novels like Lord of the Rings or Conan. It was video games like Wizardry, which became a major inspiration for Dragon's Quest and Final Fantasy. In Wizardry, you didn't have a set party. You created your own characters and death was permanent, so it wasn't uncommon to create new characters. Swapping and "grinding" were essential aspects of the game. Before you went to the dungeon, you were town where you level up, get items, create new characters, and swap characters. Where did you swap characters? Adventurer's Guild. So now you know why this trope seems to be every anime. It's based on a video game in the 80s that still sways influence today.

Not every isekai protagonist needs to join an "Adventurer's Guild"
