Man, I saw your "headline" and I could feel it.

The Hunter's Guild Final Chapter

Dr. Stone #217

Yeah, I figured cultural difference could be the issue. It's hard to tell. But it's definitely gotten in the way of me liking the manga so far. It's a cool idea and the non-comedy bits are touching, so I wish I could get into it more. But I just find myself kind of lost when it comes to some of the actual comedy. The first chapter wasn't as bad. But this one just had me kind of scratching my head.

I get the feeling Hunter's Guild is in it's way out. We're getting a lot of exposition that feels like mid-series revelations at best, if not straight up endgame. And every time a manga has suddenly ramped up and seemed to jump ahead with no real predication, it's because it wasn't too successful and is just rushing to the end. Same thing happened with Zipman(which was pretty lame by Ch. 4 tbh).

I pretty much mirror what you said with Neru, though I didn't mind the random end as much since the manga's still developing in the early stages. I also checked out Show-ha Shoten and I think I'll give it a few chapters. My only real criticism is that for being a manga about comedy, the comedy isn't that funny for most of the first chapter. Still, I kinda dig the premise and am interested in following the characters, so I'll give it a couple chapters. Unless it's like some weird 2-chapter miniseries or something.

1?) Pokemon Alpha Sapphire (Completed Hoenn Dex) 2) Mega Man X(Legacy Collection) 3) Mega Man X2(Legacy Collection) 4) Metroid Dread (100%) Hell of a game. Really good Super Metroid/Fusion follow-up with a lot of fun exploration and some cool boss fights. Definitely wasn't bothered by the E.M.M.I.'s, but I did have to look up two of the shinespark secrets because I wanted to confirm they were physically possible the way I was trying to do them. Part of me wishes the final boss was a tad harder, and I could honestly go for another 3-5 hours of exploration progress, but I think designing it this way will make it a treat for speedrunners, and even though that's not really my thing, I know how it important it is for that community. Plus, it gives motivation to play through it again even if it's just to bullshit for a few hours like I do with Metroid/Super Metroid every 8 or so months. Story spoiler

Truer words have never been spoken. I love the Warioland games so much.

Yeah, and as much as I could read the daily hijinx stuff for ages, there's a consistent trajectory of character development that necessitates a somewhat finite ending. So yeah, if they can drag it out and be engaging, I definitely won't complain. But I'll take a great story that knows where to end over a Death Note situation any day.

Ch. 55

I legitimately didn't think we'd be getting an anime so soon, but I'm beyond excited. I really grew attached to this one and it feels so sentimental and wholesome while being truly engaging. So it'll be awesome to hear it with audio and motion. Also it'll be a lot easier to trick friends into watching the anime over reading the manga

Finally bought this a few days ago. I'm absolutely in love. Everything I could ask for in a modern Metroid game. E.M.M.I. sections start getting annoying by the 5th one, but the checkpoints are forgiving enough that I'm cool with the challenge.

Elusive Samurai

Sakamoto Days has been extra violent lately. Really digging the direction of the current arc so far. Neru 14

Well agreed!

Yeah, as long as they don't get rid of the old plan, I won't holler too much other than my own laments. If they were upgrading all this to dash away the old plan, I'd be a bit more up in arms about it.

Yeah, but that's a $40 chunk per person once per year. And neither of us use the features enough to justify paying 40 bucks each. I have no problem covering the 35 yearly so we can both be able to play online plus get NES/SNES games, but I know she wouldn't want to spend an extra $40 dollars when she's not even going to touch those games for the most part. I'm not even trying to argue whether it's a bad business move or anything. It's just a decision that doesn't cater to me at all which sucks because I would have liked to play N64 games with proper resolution for HDTVs and not have to worry about potential emulation errors. But people are going to pay for it and Nintendo will continue to make money, so I'm just kind of left in the dust unless I want to fork up an extra $40 bucks.

$30 jump is annoying. $45 jump is even more annoying if you're doing the family deal so both you and your partner can play online. So yeah, I'm not paying $80 a year for this. I have a Genesis Mini and I can just emulate N64 games if I can't find cheap physical copies

Dr. Stone The Elusive Samurai The Hunters Guild 14 Neru 13 Also, Kaiju No. 8 was really good this week. Really good action and some evolution of the protagonist's abilities. The last few chapters were a bit weak in week-to-week waiting, but this chapter felt like a pretty good payoff for the patience.
