    Stores the fresh loli pantsu in the inventory to see if time passes in it and it becomes a fresh loli Baba pantsu in the inventory or if it stays fresh.

    I feel like I could do a villain + game-system Pokemon story pretty well with this premise: MC.Biigoh had isekaied to an Earth without Nintendo, which merged with the Pokemon world, and then the "harem protagonist" killed MC.Biigoh, causing him to go back to the start from the moment he isekaied. So villain revenge on "evil hero" plus two systems.

    They call the act of preempting a predestined lucky chance (such as Peter Parker's spider bite), usually by someone who knows the future or meta or canon such as a SI, as "beard cutting" in webnovels. It's a meme term. Anyway, most protagonists get a string of lucky chances, so the act of taking all their good fortune at the same time is called "shaved the head clean".

    Finally found out why the MTL Pokemon stories have "pretty, young girl" as "Stephanie", it's because Stephanie, the character of the day in Pokemon episode AG034, was not named in the Japanese version and thus was labeled "Girl" in the credits, so these MTL of Chinese Pokemon stories turn many of the instances of "少女" into "Stephanie".

    Similarly, Mitsumi has the name "小美" in the Chinese translation of Pokemon Adventures, so sometimes the phrase "小美女" shows up as "Mitsumi" and sometimes it shows up as "Stephanie", when it should just be "young beautiful girl".

    That'd be too easy. Remember, these are MTL using a glossary to find+paste before using a direct translation with google or whatever. It's not intuitive or self-correcting like how we might see machine translation will be in a year when it's integrated with this gen's chatbots' learning algos or whatever.

    Character bloat is a serious problem in crossover type stories. Is there a means to solve this problem outside of just reducing the amount of actors in each story arc, or is this just gonna be a problem that plagues the majority that caters towards multiple settings?

    There's the high-mortality solution that I hear ASoIaF uses. Pick-up harem where there's a yandere continually thinning the herd is a version I haven't seen (Mirai Nikki seems like it should be an example, but Yuno only actually kills one of her three rivals; Yukiteru himself kills the other two).

    I used to think "murderhobo" is bad story telling, but I've come to realize it's bad dungeonmastering instead. If people know that you kill all your problems and you cannot be stopped, then they stop trying to be your problems and try to be your solutions, or they plot deeper. Showing that interaction is great, but boohoo off my rails.

    So the only outlet might be stocks, especially since US and EU economies are down short term, which might mean that only Chinese stocks will rise mid term

    It's hilarious, all the Chinese Naruto fanfics have a uniform naming scheme for Inuzuka clan members. Inuzuka Fang, Inuzuka Woof, Inuzuka Paw, Inuzuka Fur, Inuzuka Big Fang, Inuzuka Bite, Inuzuka Tail, Inuzuka Howl...

    魔兽 and 兽人 are "magical beasts"/"fantasy creatures" and "beastmen", but it can also be translated as "orcs". So when they translated World of Warcraft as 魔兽世界, they were saying that Azeroth is the "world of orcs".

    Why did the SI story seem to stay on rails of canon despite the author being aware of the problems of stations of canon? I can only say that this is related to a perversion of humanity, the downfall of morality, and it must be the choice of Stein's Gate!

    Wizards who don't have melee mastery, dualwield sword and staff while riding, capability of shooting swords from bows, cleaving a galleon in half with a greatsword, ability to catch bullets and run faster than trains, use ripple and summon a stand proficiently, dress fashionably, lift tall buildings... are subpar wizards.

    I think I could twist the background lore of the story a bit more, that the chaos gods were like the titans in Greek myth, with Pangu being the same level as say Gaia
