GloomMouse posted:It's always baffling to me when fantasy works will basically say nothing has changed in the world for 10,000+ years or w/e. Like just because someone can yell to make fire happen or dragons exist people would never innovate even just in way to kill each other better. The reality is you'd get weird poo poo with magic mirror mass accelerators but no germ theory bc lol just cast esuna nbd

Yeah it's not that you can't write how a reset happened, or keeps happening, it's just tiresome when it's followed up with "...and then we forgot essentially everything, and everything progressed along the exact same path as last time, and is now threatened at the same point in societal/technological development" without getting into why that would be the case.

I dunno about that stuff, but I do recall playing Hate+ where the foreword basically said "This may take place in space, but it's based on real stuff from Korean history only I had to tone it down to be believable." in terms of just how much knowledge can be lost when a culture has dark ages and purges etc. you don't always need an outside source for these things. Also when the Romans fell, it took us a millennium to reinvent "Tie a knot in a blood vessel to stop it bleeding"

Generation ships going to hell are always fun stories, but it's also convenient to tell them since the people are isolated in such an extreme way. also:

[X] "She'll eventually devour me right down to the marrow in my bones" Zyugoya now has 3 short twitter comics going on and 2 serialized comics. With one on hiatus in each category and I just want his Angel and Demon story to come back. doomrider7 posted:Tensei Slime and Helck actually have some fairly good explanations for thisin the form of cosmic purges by angels and eldrich beings respectively starting with whoever is most tech advanced.

Blue Footed Booby posted:I think he's asking if this character has a pseudo-penis and whether she gives birth through it. She makes this guys favorite food and asks if he's in love yet. This artist also doesn't do those kind of fetishes so the best read is simply these two are going to be very intimate. Y'all are weird.

The artist's fetish is big-boobed horny ladies finding loving and supportive relationships that help them overcome their past traumas.

x I think Hirayasumi is my favorite slice of life right now. Nice soft lines and a comfy general setting that isn't falling into the trap of leaving everything in general stasis. Characters are developing and moving forward. Hits that early 30s, late 20's "I need to figure out what I'm doing with my life for real" existentialism pretty well. awkward_turtle fucked around with this message at 15:13 on Jun 26, 2023 |

Whenever I see a manga or anime with a fan like that, I always think of a character going "Wareware wa Uchuujin da!".

I liked Spiderman: Fake Red and I'll follow this as well. Plus the artist worked on the excellent My Hero Academia Vigilantes so I know there will be quality visuals.
