@TypeouC @HeatproofAlloy @inkblotPrincess What do you consider the best story or arc you've ever read?

@insanyoo @HeatproofAlloy @inkblotPrincess That's just not true. Letting characters exist beyond their most basic role is a quality, and not doing it is a flaw. It's not a preference, there's nothing personal about it. No one in the entire world will tell you "yeah I kinda wish this character was just an empty vessel".

The episode of her fighting the Zenin clan felt like the resolution to a character arc that never happened. I felt almost zero catharsis because most of these elements were only just introduced. Even Naoya was only from 2-3 episodes earlier.

@itsjustfamin @Patokwak1 @inkblotPrincess I mean what did you want? A character being discredited for being a woman? Someone made to be subservient to men?

@insanyoo @Patokwak1 @inkblotPrincess Again. Just a whole lot of talk with no relevant action to back up what's being spoken about. Show don't tell

@itsjustfamin @Patokwak1 @inkblotPrincess Momo and Nobara have a whole scene dedicated to this. The exceptions you have, two of which are from a bygone era, are not indicative of the status quo in the modern era. We are often told jujutsu society is conservative and traditional - it's a recurring theme

@insanyoo @Patokwak1 @inkblotPrincess Not really? There's not much misogyny that we see outside fhe Zenin clan. Half the pro sorcerers we see are women and they're pretty damn good at their jobs and recognized for it.

@TypeouC @HeatproofAlloy @inkblotPrincess There are few works of fiction where tertiary characters extend beyond their role. You can like works where this happens but that's not a literary critique, that's a reader preference.

@insanyoo @HeatproofAlloy @inkblotPrincess Characters having roles does not in any way justify writing characters with 1 role and nothing else beyond that. There's absolutely no correlation here. Gege could've given them literally anything else and it would've in no way taken away from their role as "the system"

@itsjustfamin @TypeouC @HeatproofAlloy @inkblotPrincess Gojo is a primary character. Ogi is a tertiary character. Naoya is a secondary character. Intentionally, these are different roles.

@insanyoo @TypeouC @HeatproofAlloy @inkblotPrincess You can put Gojo in any scenario and even without other's around him to facilitate his narrative place in the story, you can still imagine the things he would do and make it entertaining. Now try thst with Ogi. Or Naoya. Anyone in the Zenin clan. Nothing. They have no character

@itsjustfamin @TypeouC @HeatproofAlloy @inkblotPrincess Well it's both, they have a purpose and because they aren't real people that purpose is all they are. Sometimes that purpose changes and sometimes that purpose is of minimal value to the overall narrative. A character that doesn't hold their own in a vacuum isn't a bad character

@insanyoo @TypeouC @HeatproofAlloy @inkblotPrincess Characters HAVE a purpose, they're not the purpose themselves. Their role encompases the character and their traits are made to support said role, but if that character cannot hold their own in a vacuum, they're not good characters.

@TypeouC @HeatproofAlloy @inkblotPrincess You'll find no enjoyment in literature if you apply this frame to any work of fiction. Yes, characters are entirely vehicles of the authors intent and your purpose is examining the why behind it. Why must the Zen'in die? What does the nature of their dissolution say?

@HeatproofAlloy @inkblotPrincess The issue is that the zenin clan members feel more like punching bags than characters. They only exist to plan Megumi's murder, mistreat his daughters (Ogi), be a creep (Naoya) and then get "rightfully beaten up". It's artificial as hell.

@Patokwak1 @inkblotPrincess The misogyny of the Zen'in clan, which represents the widespan misogyny of the Jujutsu society, is the entire setup and point? Their influence and deeds aren't actually important to Gege's narrative

@inkblotPrincess The setup for Zenin Clan feels weak, I only know them about mistreating Maki and her sister. What about their influence or other deeds on the JJK world? It feels eradication of the clan doesn't have any bearing to the world and just about Maki.

@MMaystorm This is like complaining about Inumaki. A side character is just that

She honestly made me quit the series everything about her is just so rough. I stockholmed syndromed myself into finishing but like she's another example of Gege's iffy at best writing of women (esp women in love, which she shares with Hana)

@AvidVolley @wxxntr WHAT?!?!

@wxxntr she got injured :(

2026 USA WOMEN'S NATIONAL TEAM 🗣️ USA Volleyball has announced the 30 athletes that will represent the USA at the 2026 VNL 🔥

He’s presenting the final design. Add seven brand new stakeholders he’s never met

@t_e_n_e_b_r_i_s Because unless your ulting at a bad time, you shouldn't need that much healing

@insanyoo That’s besides my point. The initial is why don’t supports heal during annihilation

Why do supports assume that whenever a Ramattra ults he no longer needs to be healed Like bro when I play support I follow my Ram and heal the shit out of that guy until he’s done ulting idk

@Luchots123 @luvshin_ @honeyd3wenjoyer @TR33_OW Why wouldn't you be seeing it now?

@insanyoo @luvshin_ @honeyd3wenjoyer @TR33_OW nono you don't get it. I CAN complain about this because next OWCS lan will be 30 maps full of cat bastion slop and it won't be as entertaining as it could've actually been with a small tether nerf

actually comical timing of them finally nerfing kiri lucio, the one time there’s something more op already (cat bast)

@Spacewarp501 @vtyurilas @The1Nuked @OWCavalry They don't remember what Sojourn was doing in these lobbies if they think Sierra is a problem

@vtyurilas @insanyoo @The1Nuked @OWCavalry Yeah in bronze. If you can hit your shot then you’re better off with Sojourn

@Alopeciara @The1Nuked @OWCavalry Eh I misspoke, she's definitely among the most mediocre projectile

@insanyoo @The1Nuked @OWCavalry How is she hitscan

@HashemRous7052 @TR33_OW Everyone as in pros or everyone as in the other 99.8% of the playerbase?

@insanyoo @TR33_OW No you don't get it, every.single.team at the absolute highest level of overwatch (owcs korea) is playing,then it has to be good,and with a lan coming up,everyone will be playing it

@luvshin_ @honeyd3wenjoyer @TR33_OW Fairs, he can complain. The rest of us bums, not so much.

@insanyoo @honeyd3wenjoyer @TR33_OW i mean you’re the one who replied to a c1 pro player

@HashemRous7052 @TR33_OW I mean if they were talking about Korean lobbies then sure but otherwise, seems overblown

@insanyoo @TR33_OW Idk man,every team in Asia is playing cat bastion and anybody who doesn't mirror cat bastion gets stomped

@honeyd3wenjoyer @TR33_OW You, me, and everyone in this thread doesn't play anywhere near that level so why would that matter?

@insanyoo @TR33_OW well it works at the very highest level. best players in the world just played it all tourney…but sure u show em

@Karhunkynsi1 @TR33_OW Does most of the player base play in pro lobbies?

@insanyoo @TR33_OW Ask the pro players that, because that's the fucking meta at the highest level of pro play
