What are you doing off of work?
I'm not '-' I meant it in general, like on weekends and holidays and after school when I was younger, I was always unable to do it.
Trying to read this book now:

... but I can't move pass a few pages without needing a break ç.ç...

@Elusia I can back Gry up on what he said. I thought the first part of JoJo (12 eps I think) was just okay, but after that it really got a lot better. It’s hard to say what made it so much better though... It was like all the things that were kinda good about the series were done much better from that point, making it great.

Also, I only ever watched the Ninja Scroll film, but that one was really great. That was probably 8-9 years ago though. Maybe I should watch the series at some point.

Hmmmm interesting, although I could only expect that for Hector (specially after Ike). I don't think Ephraim is anything special, but maybe 'cause I don't recall his game and Eirika is on the highlights as well. Also, I like both girls but didn't expect them to be so popular. The second book villain girl looks juicier than Veronica to be as well XD
Hector and Ephraim have always been quite popular, they're some of the best protagonists in all the games so they don't surprise me. They also share some personality traits. I like them both.
Celica is okay but nothing very special imo. Guess she's pretty and had a game not long ago. Veronica quite surprised me, but I imagine she and Loki (the "juicier villain girl" as you described it :lmao) were voted because people were curious what they'd do if a villain won, since they have to give us them as a playable unit now. Veronica has more characterisation than Loki, especially in the latest story chapters. And probably getting votes for being a "loli" too. I wonder if they will let us pick one of them for free again.

Also they announced that sometime soon they will let all players vote for one of the currently in-game units, and the one people vote for the most will be given for free to everyone. Hoping people go with Bride Cordelia or someone I don't have, but someone like Ike or Lucina will probably get it due to popularity reasons, probably the newest Ike.

If they give an Ike, hope it's the last one, yeah D: I got the other one and it looks like this new one is better than mine. Or this flying Azura I just missed :emocat Tbh no idea what's popular among people, I don't follow much about FE on the internet.
Maybe Celica also got voted 'cause her unit in game is quite good? Altho I confess I don't see fire mages often in the arena for example, so Idk...
Still, a shame they picked Veronica over Loki ç.ç Loki has such a cool design, I'd love to see a new unit of her. Oh well.

What does 'wing it' mean? '-'

That's totally my current approach XDDD Mapped some specialist in the topic (and different aspects of it), looked for their main works and now I'm trying to study them. Emphasis on the 'trying' part ç.ç I hate teaching. A lot of my things are intuitive and it's fucking hard to process and transfer those...

I thought he meant to give chicken wings to your students so they stay motivated through the lessons, but that works too I guess. :edu
That would've been my Plan B. Yes. :nod

Nothing special, but why sleep earlier if you can sleep later :rolleyes:

Used to have quite heavy insomnia 2 years back, nowadays I generally can fall asleep but not very easily. It's more common for it to take some hours lying around for me to fall asleep than not. It's faster to fall asleep when I go to bed later than earlier, so I'm living by that currently.

That scene is quite the punch in the stomach the first time watching it. At first you think it'll be okay but it keeps getting worse with the poison, blood and arm cutting, then when Riko stopped breathing and the insects started gathering. And the voice acting for that scene was perfect. Mitty's backstory in a later episode is more messed up than that, but that one doesn't have the "what will happen" feeling since it's a flashback and you know the end result.

The story from there is pretty much what it's been all along. The journey to the bottom, going through all sorts of Abyss' layers, getting food and staying alive/dealing with the creatures and people they encounter along the way. With the ongoing mysteries of what's to come. The manga is pretty good, but once you've caught up it's long waits for a chapter unfortunately. But the chapters from the end of the anime til the latest chapter are all worth the read for sure, with 1 big arc finished and another one currently underway.

Gotta say it's cute seeing @gnut passionately recommend his favorite animes around :awe But he still ain't seen JoJo :nah
The insomnia problem, I can relate to it. Maybe your "biological clock" is distorted for some reason, I got mine pretty fucked up last summer for working at nights and took a month to fully recover.

I would reccomend you to make some endurance running in the night for a couple days to tire yourself heavily, then watch less anime :rolleyes:

That scene got me sick cause Riko reminds me of my little sis, the voice acting only made it worse, I cried like a kid.
Children going through fucked up stuff goes beyond my limit.

As for the manga, then I might wait a little for that second arc to finish so I can read it in one go. I dont mind waiting when it comes to manga, but if I can avoid it I'll do it. :D

How many people will you have to train? Can‘t you just recall how you learned it and go along those lines?
