@CourierPostman @staryutas That’s my point. For SG people, if you lose, you are dead 99% of the time. Unlike people like Yuji, Nobara and Megumi that can lose and get away with an injury. Their fights are lower stakes. The only reason Yuta survived was because it was a huge team fight, unlike Yuki and Gojo

@Azazelop123 @staryutas My brother in christ, Yuki fucking died during the first battle she actually participated in. And it was basically stated that her ass hasn't been going on missions at all through her life. Even Kenny was basically beaten by a guy who didn't know shit about his CT

@CourierPostman @staryutas I mean yeah his only L was to Sukuna. But the issue is that he’s SG. He’s supposed to be a different level than everyone else. We can’t really compare him to people like Yuji and Megumi. Yuki was a SG for way longer than everyone else and she had 0 physical damage on her.

@Azazelop123 @staryutas This is something that happened to Yuta before the story even began. I'm talking about losses that happened during the course of the story that stem from characters having flaws or them failing at something. From the beginning of the actual story, Yuta didn't get a single L

@CourierPostman @staryutas I don’t know if Yuta is his top fav, honestly it’s probably Toji, not Sukuna. But Gege literally started the whole series with Yuta, so of course he’ll have a love for him. Saying he didn’t suffer at all throughout the series is pretty insane though.

@Azazelop123 @staryutas People liked to joke around that Sukuna is Gege's favorite and he will bend heavens for him, but that's not true. The true favorite to the point of bullshit is Yuta, and I don't know why Yuta fans are so opposed to admitting it

@CourierPostman @staryutas Oh I thought you were just talking about permanent physical damage. If we are talking about traumatic losses, then Yuta has Vol 0. Lost the only person he cared about and cared for him, then accidentally cursed her so that she couldn’t move on, then lost her again.

@Azazelop123 @staryutas Maki lost her sister and she got burnt to the point of having scars all over her body. Aside from Hakari even minor characters lost something during the series. Todo lost his hand, Miwa lost her ability to swing a sword and Mechamaru, Noritoshi lost his clan to Kenny

@CourierPostman @staryutas Yuta comes out with around the same damage as most of the other good guys. There wasn’t really much permanent damage to the main cast. Megumi got some scaring, Yuji lost 2 fingers, Maki is scarred, Hakari had 0 damage. Nobara got it the worst tbh by losing an eye.

@Azazelop123 @staryutas The thing is that Yuta comes out COMPLETELY unscathed and with zero consequences. The only notable feature from EVERYTHING he went through is the Kenjaku scar. And yeah, I know how CS works. It was given to Yuta who has two times as much CE as Gojo, removing it's only weakness

@CourierPostman @staryutas The lack of consequences thing seems to just be him surviving things he probably shouldn’t, but that’s a thing with most of the good guys. Also his copy doesn’t remove downsides. Cursed speeches recoil scales from the difference between CE levels. This was said in season 1.

@staryutas rewarding him for nothing, giving him other people's powers, while completely removing any downsides they canonically have (mainly Cursed Speech) and giving him arbitrary weaknesses that never actually had any impact on any of his fights

@thevalleyshook @AtheistPhoenix Both groups can be unhappy but in my experience Christians are a lot more angry. Mad at strangers showing skin, mad at strangers being gay, mad at trans people existing, mad at other religions.

@AtheistPhoenix I have meet atheists and Christians, guess who is happier, so one guy told me he didn’t have faith, and another told if there is a God how can there be evil in the world, may I ask why you don’t believe I can give you evidence of God the same as the ones that believe in evolution

@Daem0nChi3f @koeitan @AustinHPhillips @MugiwaraDGoofy Happy you are a big fan of the guy, but you are just wrong. Negative reviews and hate videos do so well because it’s enjoyable watching people hate on shit. That’s been the reality long before his channel existed and it will be true long after his career ends.

@Azazelop123 @koeitan @AustinHPhillips @MugiwaraDGoofy They do so well because mainstream discourse has become saturated by media illiterate incapable of giving fair critics. His channel provides a far better reviews on movies and TV shows. Sorry you don't like the guy.

@Daem0nChi3f @koeitan @AustinHPhillips @MugiwaraDGoofy Really? Most people enjoy talking about shit they don’t like. That’s literally the reason channels like Critical Drinker do so well. Media criticism and hate videos is a hugely popular part of YouTube. Is this really your first time hearing about this concept?

@bradorndorff @oblivionam96511 @oyemnassxo its corrupting society and people who watch to show a mother beating up son violently .. the insane feminist writers included it to inject woman power stuff The original comics did not have this in detail, it showed every viltrumite fought each other to give rise to strongest.

@jay134147 @queenie4rmnola No, people enjoy watching racists being killed. It’s that simple. I don’t know why we have to make up this whole narrative of people wanting to kill all white people. Seems like just a victim complex thing to me.

@queenie4rmnola not that he’s killing klan it’s that some people low key enjoy him killing whites. It’s twitter so nuance gets lost. I’ve watched plenty of these posts to see some add this as you and some who don’t care and are glad. All of them appear on my feed no wonder you got angry folks.

@mmastrati @queenie4rmnola I don’t know why you see a dude killing evil men and then “reading between the lines” that people want to kill everyone of the race of those evil men. I don’t really understand that leap. As a white dude, I’m not sure what part of this scene or movie gave you that impression.

@queenie4rmnola Yes but we can read between the lines give us a break we're not that fucking stupid. . We know what that scene means you just want to shoot white people... The most hilarious thing is if you shoot all the white people then you have nobody to pay for your entire lives

Mizkif just announced he’s going to be a father soon, after the doctor he CR*CKED refused to ab*rt and stated she will have the child with or without his support 💀 “I don’t think I should be a father at this time. I still open Pokémon cards and boxes for a living……” 😭🥀

@SMadareme40328 Most shows, even bad ones have basic systems like that. Also that isn’t why SL stood out. The appeal of the SL anime came from the hype people had about the Manhwa. That hype came from the incredible art in the manhwa, not the world building or character writing.

@Azazelop123 – pointing out that SL nails it isn’t "overpraising basics", dude. It’s highlighting why it stands out and hooked millions, while the rest gets dropped after few episodes (2/2)

Seems like the OP blocked me from our thread, so i might as well call out you for your superficial and quite shallow view on SL's writing. Expect Gates/dungeons aren't random (1/5)
Michael Kelly@Azazelop123

@SMadareme40328 @kingReymyon “Substance” is a strong word. It set up some mysteries, but apart from that, it was just about Jinwoo getting stronger. There was no character writing for anyone apart from him. The whole start is to show how busted he is and how pathetically weak everyone else is in comparison.

@SMadareme40328 I’m not talking about the MC having plot armour. I’m talking about him being able to solve every issue in the series single handedly, making everyone else useless. 2 of the most popular shounen ever, MHA & JJK, don’t face this issue. Their MC’s can’t just solve everything alone.

@Azazelop123 Because by that standard, every shonen, manhwa, or action series has zero stakes the moment you know the protagonist survives. (2/3)

Yes, you can. The Stakes from S-ranks dying are repeatedly shown throughout the series Jeju is framed as Korea’s existential crisis. Ants have already wiped previous raids (1/3)
Michael Kelly@Azazelop123

@SMadareme40328 @kingReymyon You can’t seriously call it stakes. The S-ranks get the most writing and they would barely even count as a background character in another series. We aren’t connected to them, so the threat of them dying doesn’t raise the stakes. 1/2

@SMadareme40328 I agree. My point is that it isn’t a sign of good writing. It’s the bare minimum for a story. It’s like if I was praising my fav show and I said “and in the first few episodes they even gave us the MC’s main motivation”. Like yeah, that’s what every show does. Not praiseworthy.

@Azazelop123 The foundation isn’t flashy, sure, but it’s solid, consistent, and actively used to drive the story instead of being forgotten after episode 3 (2/2)

@SMadareme40328 That all sounds pretty bad, if you ignore Jinwoo’s existence. He’s stronger and more versatile than all the S-ranks combined. Plus he has a powerful army. He can protect the country way easier than they can. Thus, 0 stakes from them dying.

– triggered by the lack of foreign support and the looming threat of national collapse, if their hunters fall. To put it simply, losing the squad would deprive Korea of almost all of its S-rankers. (3/3)
