#699969 Salty?

Posted by Super Boom on 11 December 2014 - 02:45 AM

Personally, I'm salty that Neji died. Pretty much what killed my interest in the series in the first place. Though I admit I'm saltier now that the manga ended...and I know he only died to turn his irrelevant cousin into a viable love interest.

 

As for the word itself...I don't know, it's better than "butt-hurt" IMO, given the alternate meanings. Though there's much worse internet slang out there. 

 

But in this context...fans that cling to the ending because of their pairing and don't bother to analyze the obvious issues behind it really don't deserve your time. They're just sheep really.




#664070 Does the 'shocking ending' confirm NS as the OTP?

I think the shocking part is that (up until 693 at least) people thought it would be good and it wasn't.

 

Well played, good sir. XD

 

I thought the random modern buildings were pretty shocking. Does Naruto take the subway to work now? It's pretty shocking that Naruto thought that hair-style looked even remotely good. Sasuke's kid looks like Karin, maybe the shock is that Sakura is dumb and doesn't realize Lettuce isn't hers. Nah, just kidding, that's way OOC, that wouldn't happen. I'm pretty shocked at how Hinata's breasts got smaller. Didn't realize that ever happened in manga. Maybe Naruto asked her to get augmentation to look more like his favorite girl. It'd be pretty shocking if surgeons like that existed in a shounen world.

 

The only thing that doesn't shock me is that Naruto's kid is a One Piece fan. Can't blame him...he probably dreams of a better universe than the one he's stuck in.




#479950 *The* Bleach Discussion Thread

Posted by Super Boom on 04 July 2013 - 05:24 AM

I have read the chapter like ten times and I just have to facepalm. So old man Zangetsu was never Ichigo's sword all along give me a break :facepalm:. This chapter shows you Kubo is the king of asspulls at least Kishi is decent and knows how his manga's story is going to end. But Kubo looks like he's inventing his story and doesn't have a clue how he will end it, it's like he's pulling things out of his ass I swear. I don't even known why I'm bothering reading this manga in the first place, I apologize to all the fans but maybe I should take a long break from Bleach. 

 

It's always been clear that Ichigo's zanpakutou wasn't normal. Hollow Ichigo seems to be capable of fusing and overwhelming Zangetsu at times, and we don't have a lot of info how it worked with the Visoreds. Basically introducing a reason for his unique powers helped explain some of the issues with him having multiple spirits in the first place. It also helps brings things full circle. It helps us realize Ychwach is a deeper villain than this single arc.

 

Honestly, like Greed said, if you're a Nardo fan I really don't see how this bothers you so much. I even tried to pick up that manga again a while back, but ended up just getting mad as Kishi butchered several in-universe laws to insert his random Hokage reunion. 

 

And, erm, I really don't understand why you need to announce that you're leaving the fandom exactly. XD If you're not interested, no one's gonna force you keep reading. I really can't be bothered to read Naruto anymore, and you don't see me pushing that on everyone here. 




#374494 pairing

Posted by Super Boom on 17 March 2012 - 03:05 PM

I don't think we have a thread like this right now, so I don't mind it. Some awesome person made a General Shipping Thread in the Arts & Entertainment Section, but that's more for analysis than saying what you like.

Anywhere, here I go.

Manga/Anime

Naruto: NaruSaku (surprising right?), NaruIno, NaruSakuIno, ShikaIno
Bleach: GrimmNel, GrimmHime, IchiNel, IchiHime, UlqiHime (don't tell Soupy)
Fairy Tail: Na/Lu! wow.png Also, Gajeel/Levy and Gray/Ultear
Rave Master: Haru/Elie, Musica/Reina, Let/Julia (it's funny, my FT and RM pairings are sort of analogous tongue.gif)
Fullmetal Alchemist Ed/Win, Royza
Code Geass: Suzaku/Kallen (for a little while), Suzaku/Euphie, Lelouch/Shirley, Lelouch/C.C.
Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann: Simon/Yoko, Simon/Nia
Inuyasha: Inu/Kag, Miroku/Sango, Sess/Kag
One Piece: Me/Reading it someday tongue.gif

Video Games

Fire Emblem: Too many. I've played all ones that have appeared in North America, and I've probably had at least one OTP in all of them.
FE7: Eliwood/Ninian, Hector/Lyn, Jaffar/Nino
FE8: Eirika/Innes, Ephraim/Tana, Gerik/Marisa, Cormag/Tana
FE9/10: Ike/Mia (Wayu) - This one is my probably favorite ship in the entire FE-verse. It might just be that Mia was my favorite female character in the Tellius saga, but I thought they would make a great couple. They don't interact too much, but it's pretty obvious that Mia is one of the only female characters that can really stand on equal grounds with Commander Ike. There are hints that Mia is a little bit enamored with Ike (or at least with his combat style) and Ike comments on her being his preferred sparring partner in FE10, which is pretty much the closest you'll get to a confession of feelings from someone like Ike. I didn't mind other Ike pairings, but Ike/Elincia sort of fizzled out after awhile, and I've never really cared for Ike/Soren yaoi (though I suppose I could see where those fans are coming from). And Mia/Rhys? Just....no.

I can't comprehend the epic children Ike and Mia would have. argh1.png

I also like Ike/Jill, Haar/Jill, Ranulf/Lyre, and Sothe/Micaiah, though the latter one weirded me out at first. I mean...their relationship goes from Mother/Son to Sister/Brother to...Husband/Wife?!?!

FE11: Marth/Caeda (Shiida)

Legend of Zelda: I didn't start really start caring until ST and SS (*hides from Rocket*), but I'm a big Zelink fan now. Especially in SS! wow.png

I also like Link/Midna (in TP), and Link/Malon/Cremia/Romani, but the latter's more of a crack preference. I'm not a big fan of Link/Ilia or Saria, but I don't hate those ships either.

Tales of Symphonia: Lloyd/Sheena, Lloyd/Collete, Emil/Marta (I had mixed feelings about DotNW, but this pairing was one of the main reasons I look back on that game fondly happy.gif )
Tales of Phantasia: Cress (Cless?)/Arche
Golden Sun: Valeshipping (Isaac/Jenna), Dawnshipping (Matthew/Karis). Here's hoping the new generation repeats itself. fu.png
Mario Universe: Waluigi/Daisy pictureem0.gif

Other

Teen Titans: Rob/Star, Slade/Awesomeness
Justice League: Batman/Wonder Woman, GL/Hawk Girl
House M.D.: Chase/Cameron, House/Cuddy
Scrubs J.D./Kim (I couldn't stand Elliot)

It looks like I have a few more favorite ships than I thought. happy.gif

QUOTE (Rocket @ Mar 17 2012, 01:55 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Fire Emblem: You'll have to ask if you wanna know, I have a huge list :3 but the one I like most is Marth/Shiida [Sheeda, Caeda whatever tongue.gif] so no, Marth is not gay.

I might have to pick your brain about that one of these days. I didn't even know you played Fire Emblem. happy.gif

On a sidenote, Marth and Innes were confirmed to be DLC characters on Awakening. wow.png
