Professorjuggalo posted:Can you guys PLEASE put spoiler tags inside the train station I think it's just a cultural approach to storytelling? A very "the journey is more important than the destination" thing. Old DBZ episodes would just be like "the death of Krillin!" Even with The Seven Samurai, some of the original ads would say "this is the tale of seven noble warriors. These ones die!" I don't know enough on the subject to say definitively, but that's what it's always looked like to me.

Can't wait for the arc where Shigaraki gets the Infinity Gauntlet.

I don't think knowing spoilers ruins the story one bit, and I've found that it actually enhances the story at times, but you do lose the impact of having the big twist if you know it's coming. Considering that you can reread a story over and over, but you can only be surprised by the twist once...

How is “Shigaraki is the villain who decays things” a spoiler? That ad seems cool as hell.

Unless you consider new costumes/character designs a spoiler (which some people do, to my confusion) nothing in that is a spoiler.

Considering that you can reread a story over and over, but you can only be surprised by the twist once... I've read that being spoiled actually raises overall enjoyment of a work, based on some study. At any rate though, different people react differently to spoilers. I know people who don't care about spoilers at all whatsoever, and others who consider drat near any information about a work, even its general plot, to be a heinous spoiler. It's just a personal taste thing, like most everything else in the world. Either way, it's not like people who don't care about spoilers necessarily seek them out, so avoiding them doesn't hurt anything, but NOT avoiding them could. PMush Perfect posted:How is “Shigaraki is the villain who decays things” a spoiler? That ad seems cool as hell. This is definitely one of those times where it's only a spoiler if you already know it's a spoiler. For a manga reader, the ad shows Shigaraki powered up, using his bigass AOE decaying, which is definitely a spoiler if you're not caught up / anime-only. However, if you don't know Shigaraki gets powered up in those ways, then it just looks like a cool design of him decaying the panels and stuff. The act of saying "this is a spoiler!" is what spoils it. This poo poo happened all the time in the JoJo anime threads, where spoilers would be hinted at in the OPs but were obscure enough to not be obvious. That is, until others went THIS IS SO SPOILERY at which point it's easy to figure out what happens. Anime fans are very bad about this for some reason.

I mean by that metric, aren't all anime openings spoilers? One of the things I liked about watching Naruto and One Piece was seeing characters and moves in new openings that weren't yet in the series, and getting excited at what I now knew was coming, and knowing that I'd get context on it later.

Yeah, anime OPs generally spoil stuff all the time (for example, the current Boruto opening and the most recent two One Piece openings).

Black Clover had an OP that spoiled the demon reveal, which is something that happens almost right at the end of the particular 12 episodes it covered I think, and that's supposed to be a huge reveal.

One Piece has had some hilariously spoilery openings. Notably showing off all the post timeskip designs before the actual show revealed them.

90% of romcom OPs make very clear who ends up with the MC.

Considering that you can reread a story over and over, but you can only be surprised by the twist once... I think it varies on the situation and person to person. For example, I've been spoiled on a story for a couple shows and games before and I still felt the emotional impact of it but there's a recent game I've been playing where the spoiler has been gnawing at the back of my head the entire time I've played it, wondering when it's going to happen. In this case it's really distracting to me, but usually it isn't, and I'm sure on any subsequent playthroughs it won't bother me. big spoilers if you're curious about the example Dragon Quest 11 Spoiler~~~ I read Veronica dies ~~~ Dragon Quest 11 Spoiler

Something I noticed rereading the chapter Is Deku using Black Whip as a cast/tourniquet for the arm that used Wyoming Smash?

Just keep airing the first episode over and over again becaude you don't want to accidentally spoil people who haven't been keeping up with every episode and have those in some other web service if they want to spoil more of the story for themselves?

I just found it weird that western culture can rally around 2 week spoiler free peroids for stuff like avengers end game but you can plop a episode of DBZ that says GOKU DIES. idk why you're acting like im complaining about it off a harmless quip edit: to keep it back to the chapter i think we'll learn bakugous hero name or deku gets a new power before any timeskip Professorjuggalo fucked around with this message at 22:19 on Aug 31, 2020 |

The really funny thing there is how much Isayama drops spoilers that only become clear in hindsight, up to and including the last panel of the manga.

Dr Subterfuge posted:spoilers that become clear in hindsight... you mean foreshadowing? Well, yeah, if you want to use the right terms for things, fine. Say it that way. But it goes a little further than in-narrative foreshadowing. He cited the openings to Breaking Bad seasons as a reference, where you outright show what you're going to do well in advance, but you leave out the context. There's a lot of Attack on Titan related media (promotional ads, non-canon gag pages, music videos) that casually reveals things years before the manga has them happen. For example, the ED for one season of the anime shows Ymir being eaten by her daughters years before the manga got to that reveal. Or how Historia calls Eren her boyfriend in an ad for the Attack on Titan final exhibit.

This fight has justified black whip to me tbh. Deku's fighting style has really evolved to incorporate it, he's pulling off some sick stuff with it and ultimately this fight would be less cool if he only had super strength. Hopefully the other quirks work out as well.

He could probably use black whip as a brace for his arm so it doesn't get completely ruined when he goes all out with an attack.

I just remembered that they made a point of showing Eri's horn was getting bigger before this whole thing started going down, so I wouldn't be surprised if she used her quirk to save someone's life after this battle(betting on either Deku or Aizawa).

Deku and Sero are going to form a rescue team in the second half that’s easily the most effective given the versatility of Blackwhip and Tape

If you don't like Shigaraki after this chapter, I don't know what to tell you. He actually predicted Aizawa would cut his own leg off, based on all those times he was a Pretty Cool Guy, and took advantage of the split-second gap to escape. He ate a 100% Smash and just latched on with his teeth to keep from getting hit again! He's got more "main hero" energy than the actual Heroes at this point.

I imagine he doesn't have any de-quirking bullets left since that is even more complicating. He grabbed a big fistful of them and stuffed them in both pockets but it showed some of them spilling out from his super-jumping before the real fight started.

Professorjuggalo posted:Can you guys PLEASE put spoiler tags inside the train station From what I've seen of twitter and such there's a dichotomy here: Readers tend to be quite respectful, hiding stuff that's meant to be kept hidden and such. Companies straight up assume you're up to date with whatever product they're releasing and absolutely don't mind showing you stuff that's already considered "old". In the case of a weekly manga, "old" can mean "a week ago".

regeneration would be less broken if it meant you can heal from anything, but you'd still run out of energy eventually. Like, hell yeah I regrew all my limbs! Time to sleep for a month! The infinite energy regeneration machine style of it sucks due to how OP it is.

Vengarr posted:If you don't like Shigaraki after this chapter, I don't know what to tell you. I absolutely hate his new power set, specifically the super regeneration, and feel like it drains 100% of any tension out of the fight because there's no sense of accumulating damage or cost, and he's also super mega ultra invincible strong even without his active powers so despite Deku punching his head in he's just fine. To use a MHA comparison, something like the Stain fight was way more fun to read because there was an escalating cost to both sides that ratcheted up tension. Hell, to even use a Shigaraki fight, Shigaraki vs Re-Destro was way cooler than this fight is. I'm really just waiting for the other shoe to drop so we can move on with wherever this is going.
