Things so far: 276
Idea stolen from sametdze, and inspired by the fact that I wrote more words than I should have about ned flanders in the AYA thread by also sametdze

give a book, a movie, an anime or manga (or even a videogame) and I will do my best to complete it and write a little essay about it. Or just about single characters or concepts. I have time on my hands and I think I may be able to do it (but please, be something that you yourself have played/read/whatever)

WHAT I DON'T ACCEPT:

-Horror (may be exceptions but generally not)

-Music (I'm not into music and I wouldn't have much to say other than I liked it/not)

-Plot-light videogames (I mostly know how to speak about and i'm interested in talking about the narrative side of things, if the only real thing I can talk about is gameplay design I may not have that much to say)

-Really long stuff (For videogames, make it nor surpass 15 hours in howlongtobeat, I generally do exceptions depending on the length of the queue, for anime, keep it under 50 episodes)

-Fandom heavy content (If you need to be part of a fandom to really enjoy or understand something, don't request it)

-Youtube heavy content (Things that one normally interact with via youtube videos, for example, an ARG, no one solves an arg by themselves, you just watch the video about how it got solved, I'm not interested in doing this sort of stuff. I also dislike things that are with the idea of baiting youtube videos or whatever, i'm not matpat, don't expect me to analyze hello neighbour or fnaf)

-ecchi/harem/sexual stuff (i'm not doing this thread to get horny)

-autobiographical stories (feels bad to criticise) these)

as an added requirement, PLEASE have played the game/read the book/etc yourself, don't request things you yourself haven't experienced

I really love Narumi Toa. Like, a lot. Like, a whole lot. You have no idea. I love her so much that it is inexplicable, and I'm ninety-nine percent sure that I have an unhealthy obsession. I will never get tired of installing Gentoo Linux with -o3 -march=native -flto optimization flags on an AMD Ryzen 9950X bare metal using a fleet of 8 same specced machines for distcc. It is my life goal to meet up her with her in real life and have her configure my arch install for me

kowalski the penguin

I was a fan of this show as a kid however, it's going to be a lot more shaky since i'm just writting what I remember it being, but I can do this one RN

I think this show overall was pretty good, the concept of the show was really interesting, being both a cute show about penguins (Which are my favourite animal!), and also a parody of the spy genre. Which is a genius combination. And kowalski is the greatest example of the spy genre in this show, being the most logical and more "spy-like", and having the constant joke of "kowalski, analysis". And I think it is a really good character for a comedy, honestly, better than a lot of other comedy shows

One thing that I really appreciate about the show, it's that the characters aren't just only the jokes that they make with them. They're full and kinda well written charactersm having a personality that's independent to the plot of the show. And kowalski is no exception.

TLDR: I just really like this show and I really love kowalski, there are a lot of funny jokes and they're actual characters unlike many other comedies tbh

I never read or watched the lord of the rings either, I just meant The Hobbit book. It was probably one of my favourites to read growing up.

okay the train video was short so I could just sneak it as a break from reading the manga i'm reading rn

if I understood correctly, the tour was made to showcase the new technologies, since high speed trains was still pretty new at the time, and this apparently was succesfull and people were "omg so fast", however, while I may not kow much about trains, I do know a bit about america itself.

and that is, while the technology was there, and was cheap, and successful, trains are NOT the main form of transformation as they envisioned and to happen. The main way to move in america is with a car. And this is just not a conveniance thing, in many ways trains are the superior way of transporation, it allows people that wouldn't really be able to drive a car move to further places, it's faster, and it's cheaper since you dont need to buy a car. (Also I forgot to mention they're more enviromentally friendly too!)

but, the car itself, is part of the american identity, part of their patriotism. At least with the image of america that I have (i'm not american and never been to america), stuff like seeing a race and drinking bear while doing so is an incredibly patriotic act, same with driving big trucks and stuff. And while amtrak may had the superior way of transporatation, they ended up losing due to american culture, and while trains are a lot more present in asia and parts of europe, the actual tour that they describe was not as successfull as they would have wished, which kinda just raises a lot of questions of if we should prioritize what seems objectively correct over culture. Which is a MASSIVE political and philosophical topic that i'm not getting into.

I think your art is ok. Being completely honest it's not something that's really going to stand out compared to the style of the other artists I follow like cam collins or some weird japanese artists I follow on pixiv. However the art is still good, it reminds me a lot of the style a lot of occidental webtoons has, or even the artstyle some newground flash games used to have, and I do think you habve the skill level in art to actually draw one of these if you were actually determined to do so (Of course you would need to know how to write a story or code but you get my point)

Review Deltarune

I have alraedy beaten deltarune, so I can do this one rn

I feel that the only way to talk about deltarune is to put in context, this is toby fox second agme, that is a follow up to undertale, one of the must influential games of all time, and so far, deltarune just seems to be more and bigger in every sense

The combat has improved, the plot seems more serious and deep, the alternate route is more darker, the story is more ambitious, the game is 7 times longer, etc.

Not only that but we got to consider that deltarune only happened because it was showed to him in a dream (this is real look it up), and undertale only existed as a proof of concept for deltarune, it promises to be a LOT

so, we know undertale tracked morality. Not only with the spare or kill system, but it also tracks stuff like reloads or if this is your second playthrough, this was the thing that really made undertale blow up as it did

but then, in deltarune, while offering the same options, we get a denial of consequences. When you're expecting the same concepts to apply, sparing or killing have no apparent effect on the ending of the chapters.

However, then we got chapter 2 with the weird route, which is not just activated by kiling everyone, but now you got to mentally maniputale one incredibly likeable character with a tragic backstory into killing everyone which is somehow way fucking worse

Not only that, but the game also plays with a concept that undertale really didn't play, and that is layers of separation and distances

I think the most apparent use of this is jevil, that if you think about it, they are on a cell, inside of a basement, of a castle, of a dark world, of a regular, fantasy world, inside a program, inside a computer, inside the real world and the game makes use of that for storytelling, like lancer not being able to travel between worlds, spamton trying to reach heaven, noelle denying the existance of dark worlds, etc

this is no longer about just breaking the fourth wall, this is about having another fourth wall for the protagonist and then having other character break that wall. Given that deltarune is only 25% released at this point and that things for sure will get crazier near the end, the potential deltarune has is absolutely inmense, and having a concept that could be equally as ground breaking as the original undertale, but given this level of polish and preparation, allow me to be hyped

Review Off Topic, do you like the way it is right now, why or why not? What kind of threads make OT more enjoyable for you?

I think people overthink OT, like A LOT, I feel for most of the problems people complain about, it's just stuff that they like to complain about but either dont actually hate it or at least not enough to do anything about it. I'm saying stuff like "OT is dying" or "current thread sucks!!!". I just think that is total BS

however, I will say, since I started on OT I have seen a big shift. I feel a lot more people had less unique posting styles, in fact, most of them shared the same lore-focused, semi-interactive thread. And everything outside that, it would have a lot bigger of a change to get shit on because "it was not effort"

now, it's a lot easier to see how a thread is written and perfectly know who the OP is, people like lostsilver, sametdze, mikey, etc. The is a lot more variety, and some people really put some really big effort into each thread, and there is a lot of people who seem interesting in taking part on each one of them

also, metas seem a lot less frequent, when I started it felt like every other week, and now it's a very rare occurance

I'm my personal opinion, I like the current state of OT, while I do personally think OT isn't dying, I'm my opinion i'm enjoying OT more now than I did in the past, it feels a lot more personal and interesting compared to the lore supremacy of back then

what kind of threads do I enjoy the most?, I do personally engaging al ot in any thread that allows me to be writting for more than 10 seconds or have a disscusion, stuff like the reyalp yume nikki thread, the AYA thread, etc, but those threads are rare, doesn't really do that good, and honestly having too many of them would be bad

so excluding that, I like those competition threads, like the minima speedrunning or the watermelon game, cool to see if anyone actually starts hardcore grinding

and for shitpost threads, AI think the newdweller thread is probably one of the funniest OT threads in recent time, so whatever that type is, I like it

tried to watch it a while back but honestly I really didn't enjoy the first chapter and it would seem painful to watch the rest
*season

it's not for everyone of course
no I mean I gave up at episode 1

well it was made by 2 preteens at the time
the later released episodes may be of higher quality

i'm going to note it but due to it being a very long game it's going to take me a while

also, update, I've just finished the first movie of the hobbit, i'm nearing the end of the manga i'm reading so I will probably start reading nickelodeon today

Okay I have read nickelodeon (the manga)

Nickelodeon is very strange. I personally went fully blind torwards it, and it seemed to be an drama/experimental anthology from what I had read in the first couple chapters, but it ended up being a comedy anthology with reacurring characters

This manga in many ways feels like a very primitive version of city, but with more explicit jokes, shorter arcs for each character, and without an ovearching plot really uniting the manga

comparing it to city, I enjoyed city a lot more, but mainly because I like the comedy style more (city is a manga created by the same mangaka as nichijou, my favourite comedy of all time)

nickelodeon is a manga that shifts a lot tho, because even if most of it does feel like a comedy manga, there are some pretty serious chapters without any apparent jokes, like chapter 1, so it's really a gamble if the next chapter it's supposed to just be weird/depresing or funny, because there is no way to tell really.

Honestly, it's those weirder chapters I have a problem with, because I don't know what their purpouse is, if they have any purpouse, because the story aren't really that groundbreaking from my opinion and the fact that most chapters doesn't really have any consequence on the next, I dont really know what the purpouse of these chapters are, it feels like it just makes the pacing of the jokes worse

this is just a really strange manga that I dont quite understand

Nijihahara Holograph next

also i'm downloading assassins creed odyssey rn but my pc may shit itself and die

Can you do research over how to build a parameter in Minecraft when the default method of using dry coral fan is not working (when the server run on paper, it does not work)

ok yeah no I've only played like an hour but i'm already hating the game, i'm not going to subject myself to this

This game just doens't feel like a single player game, it feels like you took a game like destiny 2 and then just made it singleplayer, totally ignoring the fact that the structure of a multiplayer game does not work in a singleplayer one

for example, in most single player games, while they usually have some balance testing and stuff, if something ends up being a little overpowered it doesn't matter, you can choose to just not use it if the game didn't really require it. If you find a way to cheese a boss, the game will usually just hand out the win to you, the game is non-competitive so it doesn't matter if you found a way to cheat

this was my idea of what the game was going to be, so I played like that, however, I felt the game was pushing me back at every single chance it had

oh I obtained a cool item!, cool but you dont have enough experience to use it, you must get to at least x level to use it

I'm confident on my fighting skill, I can take that elite down: wrong, you cant since you're not the adequate level, it's just going to two-shot you

well, I saw that stealth can oneshot enemies, i'm just going to sneak up to them, do this whole section while stealthing, and then just oneshot them: wrong, the attack only really does a certain ammount of damage, so you cant really one-shot enemies with a level higher than yours

the whole thing seems like you're playing a live service multiplayer game, but that's not how a single-player should look, in a multiplayer game, certain choices are made because if not it could ruin the experience for other players, this game is doing those decisions because they thought they were cool

not only that, but this game literally features an option for your horse to travel to quest objectives automatically, and a cash shop, in a single player game

this is the first single player game i've ever played that had a cash shop

i'm just baffled by this game, I haven't played too many AAA games in general, so I really didn't expect an assassins creed to look like that. And the AAA games that I have played are stuff like baldur's gate 3, where if you're skilled enough, you can take on a stronger enemy than you, maybe even use the environment to oneshot it, and then steal all their loot, which has no level requirement associated. Because this is the standard, or at least it should be, not whatever the fuck this game tried

Yeah, there's also this whole thing with named fighters you can kill to rank up, would make sense in a pvp game but is kinda useless in a single player, you can entirely ignore it as far as I know
Also having all gear stats be linked only to level makes all legendaries obsolete as soon as you level up and pick up even lowest tier gear
It's kinda sad, I'd love a good action/adventure game in ancient Greece (other than old God of War), it's almost endless copyright free content you can use any way you want and pretty much everyone is at least somewhat familiar with it (especially since Hades), how is there not a good AAA game like that?

that's a good one, of the movies I initially watched when I was getting into anime and I still really love it to this day

A silent voice is a romance drama anime movie, you could probably group it in the same category as stuff like I want to eat your pancreas (which is also an amazing movie).

The plotisn't too surprising if you've seen this type of movie before, protagonist is fucking depressed, meets girl, guy and girl improves their life thanks to their relationship, it's more complex than that of course but htat's the idea, in this case, the girl she ends up liking was a girl she used to bully because she was mute, and what used to be their classmates resent him for it

Our protagonist is completely and fully aware that they resent him, and just doesn't want top interact with anyone for that reason, even if they dont know them, they're still too scared to talk, the way this is showcased in the movie is by crossing out the faces of everyone else

and while they dont explicitely tell you what the crossed faces mean, or that he sees everyone under that same light, the spectator understands this perfectly, you learn about the situation and then you can extrapolate all that information, allowing for a lot more character development with only a few extra seconds of runtime

in that sense it reminds me of Ping Pong, they dont tell you how the protagonist got into ping pong, but by reading it, you just know. I love this style of storytelling

not only that, but this way of telling the story not onl makes you enjoy the plot more, because if they just told you all that stuff from the stuff, you would enjoy it a lot less than just discovering and understanding it yourself, and being proud of yourself for doing so

it's also a lot more ambiguous than a written sentence, so it really does help to illustrate this very ambiguous and complex feelings

and while the movie advances, he gains confidence and forgives himself for their past acts, he starts losing the crossed out faces, being more open, and finally being able to really push their life forward

our female MC also has a lot of developement too, mainly, the misscomunication that constantly happens during the movie, of having her friends who stil resent the guy try to constantly read her mind and talk for her, even if she didn't feel that way at all

however, she has lived her entire life like that, she's kinda used to it already, and again, by seeing the movie you understand this fact, even if no one had to explicitily tell you

I absolutely love this movie, it has a lot to say about disabilty and depression, and it does it in this beautifully artistic way that is honestly needed to be able to portray these types of complex feeling. It's just wonderful. I remember giving it a 10 in myanimelist
