Re: :^) I just want to be your Kappa feat. xi0 (͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I fell asleep during There Will Be Blood EVENTUALLY AT THE VERY END AFTER AN AGONIZING MOVIE OF NOTHING AND BOREDOM

Actually we have a huge running gag about this movie, how I sat through it complaining every minute about how boring it was. All my friends in that main gang remember it and bring it up constantly. I built up a reputation because of that movie that I'm "always be negative about movies", which is so wrong, rofl.

God, you're so wrong...that movie is amazing

Re: :^) I just want to be your Kappa feat. xi0 (͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

pls how can you say that my taste is wrong?

Serious note I watched it when I was like 17 or some shit, and with 4 or something friends. Not always the best environment to watch drama/serious films. At another serious note many "superb films" are sometimes boring to me. If the story isn't interesting, it doesn't matter how great the directing is, or how well told the story and acting is, or how many Oscars it was nominated for, or won.

But this was pretty funny case to bring up, since it's the movie I'm notorious for having complained 24/7. One of our classics to bring up whenever I start whining =D

What comes around, goes around

Yeah me too. I like Orochimaru a lot and he's a great character, but while he's similar to Hisoka in some aspects, he's completely different in many more than he's similar. Both are superb characters to me, not sure whom has more depth yet, I'd guess Orochimaru honestly, but I'll have to see if we learn more from Hisoka. But personally I like Hisoka more, it's just a personal preference for his type of character. I really enjoy these really weird "Joker like" characters. And for some reason I'm fascinated by clowns/masked people.

How did you figure that out? O_o my DGM post was purely for the OST, lol. Yes I'm at episode 55 I think. It's deep into the arc and the crew are gonna attack the Spiders after the whole mafia vs spider situation. I honestly have mixed feelings about the arc so far. I find it WAY too slow for one. Had I followed it weekly it would've been a drag to me. Some aspects about it was hype as fuck and awesome as hell, some others were super boring, others were average. I'm sorry but I can't bring myself to care enough about Kurapika either, and the arc has been HUGE at following him unnecessarily, and by this I mean his mafia bodyguard plot. IMO the story could've been moved along faster and skipped more parts where he's off by himself not really doing something relevant (that means when the story doesn't include Gon/Killua), and the plot could've been faster to include Gon and Killua with Kurapika's plot. Highlights for me so far have been three: Firstly, Kurapika fighting Uvo obviously, although it's bitter to me, I'll explain in a bit. Secondly, Gon and Killua getting captured and all those scenes + stalking. Thirdly the Troupe's attack, which is mainly awesome because of Zoldyck's fighting the Troupe Boss. HYYYYPE + DAT PLOT TWIST with Illumi! Other parts were kind of boring too, not including Kurapika, like so much focus on Gon/Killua uselessly getting some MINOR cash, I mean come on... They need billions and we follow them around so much when they get only thousands...

Now I'll explain my main complaint about Kurapika really: His progress is too fast for me. I really hate rushed training arcs/periods in general. I found Gon/Killua's mastery somewhat OK but even theirs was very fast to me. After all they did everything in like a couple months or something. Then they spent the rest fighting which was super cool, and doing other random stuff like visiting Whale Island for plot reasons. But Kurapika is too godlike IMO in just 6 months, it screams bullshit to me. The guy can handle these legendary group's members after a few months of training from ZERO.... His improvement rate is just too rushed to me, despite it being "condition based". Poor Leorio seems doomed to not even master basic Nen xD

Oh, is your salt jokes an exception then?

I think DGM was my third anime. I know I watched Bleach, then immediately Naruto. I'm not sure what I watched after, but I'm pretty sure I moved onto DGM. It was so good, and I even learned half the anime was fucking filler when I read the manga after xD Yeah the series was superb IMO. Such a shame, it had such massive potential too. A bad part was the confusing style of the author, which made many panels, especially fights very hard to understand what was going on. But the plot was so interesting... I really loved it pre-monthly. The Edo arc + Level 4 Akuma Invasion arc was so fucking hype, holy shit... Following that it kind of went downhill a bit IMO, with health issues and hiatuses, then it became monthly and became much worse. And yeah, that OST is one of my all-time favorite songs. Such a memorable moment and song to me. Really hard to explain, but it's one of those really "deep" anime songs to me.

DAT POST THO!! We scaring other noobs away!

God, you and your wall of text....

Hisoka prolly has less depth than Orochimaru yeah, but that's simply because we hardly know anything about Hisoka. He's still the better character to me though, Oro kind of was done with his 10th resurrection and awful fixation on Sasuke. "Joker like" characters are awesome, that's all

Not hard to figure out, because I know those tracks don't appear before Yorkshin. You're an exception, the Yorkshin arc usually is highly regarded and respected, because that's where the manga starts to develop beyond the "cliche" shounen story, or so many say. Personally it's among my favourites as well. You kind of have to get used to the anime/manga taking detours here and there, and while you might find it unnecessary, it adds to the universe and gives a deeper insight on how the world works. Not saying it's not unnecessary sometimes, but I usually prefer that instead of just rushing from action to action or suspense or whatever. Never was a huge Kurapika fan either, but it's not like I don't care at all, so the focus on his character was okay with me.

Kurapika vs Ugo was great, plz. Kurapika certainly is overpowered in a sense, but not "so much" once you know his powers. I understand your thoughts though, you might say he became too strong too fast even with the restriction, but ugh.... it's kind of fine to me. The only ones he can really own are the Spiders and using the power of his eyes makes it impossible to have multiple fights, after one fight he's out. Kind of enough of a restriction to me.

You might have noticed I used them less. There's a limit to every joke, so I stopped spamming the salt jokes left and right XD

Not much time to go downhill, the Invasion arc was more or less the last one before all the hiatus, afterwards she just finished a rather short arc during multiple hiatus. That one was okay, just too minor to really get you agitated after Edo and Invasion. It really went down with the monthly release, it kind of felt rushed and way too confusing. She should've stopped with WSJ and take a break until the recovers for real, instead of what we got afterwards. Now the most likely worked herself to the point where a return is highly unlikely, not too mention that the story kind of got destroyed. Meh....

Re: :^) I just want to be your Kappa feat. xi0 (͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Hmm, Yorknew City arc was to me still superior to Greed Island. I already explained my "complaints" about it. But basically what it comes down to for me is the story focus, setting and villains. Personally I liked the setting more in Greed Island. I'm also a tard for training arcs, I just like that shit. But overall it had way less depth to it. Also Greed Island's downfall was the villains. Extremely poor villain design to me. What an uncreative one IMO... Three villains, his lackeys aren't even ANY fun, they're just filler basically, and extremely boring. The main guy, the Bomber was shallow and boring as well. Boring design and boring character. In that sense, Yorknew looked godlike in comparison since the Troupe was REALLY interesting and a really cool dynamic GROUP with interesting characters and interactions. What made Yorknew kind of lose some points in my book were those detours. Some would be needed IMO to add depth and not ALWAYS be "hype hype hype", but it was too much IMO, and I definitely would've been bored if it was a weekly watch now and then. It was much more fun when the Troupe was in focus, and Gon/Killua. Less when Kurapika was in focus to me. In the end both arcs were good. To be honest it's hard to really rate them. Personally I really liked the exam and Heavenly Arena as well. Less depth in those arcs, but they were well executed. Again tho in Heavenly Arena the "villains" (those noob crushers) were boring, but the Hisoka focus made up for it + training.

Personally I found the fight a little boring between Kurapika and Uvo. I'm sorry. It was too one-sided, and I really found his super powers too rushed. However Gon and Killua kind of developed their special powers super fast too so I guess you get away with it super fast in HxH as long as ur talented as fuck... However they trained for months in Greed Island too to refine it. Back to Uvo, I basically predicted it, and it happened, he got the "Sasori treatment". A cool new villain that is immediately taken out after being hyped. The reason I found the fight lacking was because it was too one-sided. It wasn't even exciting, you know? I agree he has enough of a restriction however. Gon should wtf-pwn Kurapika in a fight, and that I like.

RIP DGM, I'll always remember it for what it gave me, and the song will stay with me too as the beautiful piece it is.

Well, counting Fake-Spider Hisoka, he's the OBVIOUS one. Other than him I'd have to go with the Boss. Plus he has Kira's voice =) Other than those, I like most of them really, but the coolest ones are Nobunaga (Madara's voice :^), The pink hair one because she's cool and cute :^), I like overly child looking yellow hair mobile phone guy too because he's kinda troll looking and fun :^), I also like Uvo obviously, and Feitan is kind of "cool" I guess. Also now fucking Kalluto is #4 WTF... Isn't he/she kinda weak =s How can such a youngster be stronger than Killua? I mean if she's weaker that just makes her hilariously weak as a Troupe member.

Explained arc I guess.

I'm at the start of the Chimera Ant arc.

Yeah, Genthru is regarded as the weakest main villain by pretty much everyone. His fight with Gon was still nice, but the Dodgeball game with Razor definitely was the highlight. Overall I would agree, Yorkshin is better than Greed Island etc, the only one I would consider superior is Chimera Ant. Just saying, you might feel different so no hatu plz

One-sided fights can be epic too, but I see where you are coming from. Uvo was really cool, I really like Machi (the pink haired girl xD) and Nobunaga too, not so much of a Chrollo fan actually. Never understood the Feitan hype either, but many like him. Not sure about Kalluto, or how strong he actually is. Then again there might be other advantages to him, who knows. Shalnark isn't the strongest fighter either (blond haired dude) but his abilities besides that are pretty useful.

Regarding Gon owning Kurapika.... not sure, considering "only" Chain Jail can't be used against anyone but the Spiders. He still can use everything else, though Judgement Chain would be rather useless without Chain Jail. I would say he's still damn strong as long as it's a one vs one fight, if he fights again multiple strong foes it gets difficult though, considering Emperor Time can only be activated for a short amount of time and he's pretty much out of it afterwards.

wow where's my reply bish

I'm somewhere in the 90s I think. Gon and Killua failed to beat Knuckle and the other S**** guy, forgot name due to his irrelevance. Kind of disappointing, but finally actually a rather realistic outcome! I like it. Excited to see what will happen now that Gon's can't use Nen for a month. I predict he will train his ass off physically so that his increased phsycial condition will enhance everything about his Nen after a month. Since I assume there might not be any more training arcs until the big show downs.

Finally done with the whole Queen/Squad leader boredom too. Was getting bored of those noob ants. Finally the main attraction has arrived, the mutation of Cell and Freeza has arrived to kick ass.

Am I allowed to cry about the fact that you ignored half of my post?

Heee, well you will see. Didn't consider the other ants lame or boring, but I guess you already know too much about the Arc so you prolly were looking forward to that. Don't insult the Ant King by comparing him to Cell or Freeza plz D:

Nah I said I would ponder how long I'd take to reply

Dude the guy is basically the combined version of Freeza and Cell. Even his LOOKS suggest it.... The ants are even Android like, and the King is basically Cell in the way he can "eat to become stronger" as Cell "absorbed people with his tail" to get stronger. Oh both have the same tail =O
