I'm holding out hope that ROB made a Ninetalesite.
Did you read the same chapter I did? Archie thinks that he can control Kyogre, that the pure righteousness of his cause will sway her into doing his bidding and let him remake the world in his image. He is an idiot, plain and simple: he bemoans...
I mean, who else was there? Elm talks a good game about backup now, but frankly that sounds a lot like Monday morning quarterbacking to me. The whole lead up to this raid was all about how the police were overwhelmed even in moderate sized settlements, let alone outlying areas like Mr. Chimney...
The thing that bothers me the most about this is that the two Pokemon that Maxie has are so powerful that people should really know about them. For one thing, you don't get that ridiculously powerful in a vacuum; you'd need to train, and unless Maxie goes completely-isolated mountain hermit such...
This seems kind of off to me. I understand Zenivia not saying anything, but Lee was fully expecting to see Courtney at the top of the mountain. Why didn't he mention it to Brendan here? I get the Doylist reason was to preserve drama, but Lee really needed to warm Brendan that be might have to...
It's kind of interesting that Lee hasn't named all of his Pokemon. You'd think he would; he named the animals under his care, to better help differentiate them in his mind and distance them from generic considerations of the species as a whole; why not for his Pokemon?
The only way to correctly respond to an obvious bait like this is to conspicuously not respond, showing full awareness that the "hypothetical scenario" outlined here is in fact obvious bait and therefore will not be responded to, and go back to reasonable discourse.
Just to clarify, I won't be...
The issue there is that an "opposing side" to somebody having an identity is denial of another person's identity; I'm not sure how that can ever be apolitical, or not tie in to several still-prohibited legislative and/or religious controversies around the globe (aside from a definitional change...
I'm wondering if this is supposed to be centuries earlier than prequel canon. I mean, Er’izma is working with the Chiss, and apparently has been for decades, but in EU canon and even in Disney canon (since the old X-wing / Tie Fighter games are supposed to remain canon, and Thrawn's history is...
Okay, in order then:
Ran faked her death and burned down any support structures she had. She is now alone in the world, with no support from her family or friends, including the one close friend she made, and will be for an extended period, until she finally finds out that she could have been...
Yeah, there was a lot of hopping around in this version. The novelization is a definite improvement on the original; I'm glad you expanded on it.
I'm still not happy with the Momo-chan reveal, though. The revelation that she knew that Ran was planning on faking her death, or that it was...
The overriding question, the one that has ultimately been the focus of the entire story ever since Big Boss made his ultimatum to Ran in Chapter 20, has been: Why does Ran feel she needs to fake her own death, and not both herself and Karin's? Why does she feel that Karin will be safe from the...
Ugh, you know, the more I think about these last omakes the more I dislike "Momo-chan" and would really like Shimada Momoko back.
Shimada Momoko was a woman who loved Ran to the extent that her Shimada blood would allow her to. Shimada Momoko struggled between her love and duty towards her...
I'm not sure I'm terribly happy with this omake, because it really kind of undermines Ran's agency, and in some ways the rest of the story as a whole. In particular:
This little bit is entirely Momo's fault; after all, what Ran was worried about specifically was her unstoppable mother being...
I think the main issue that some people are having is that the best puppet user we've ever seen that didn't have some other magic cheat code was Sasori, and he was portrayed as more of a mid-boss than someone who was truly powerful in the Naruto world, making it seem like this isn't such a great...
Sort of. Remember that Ran's foreknowledge tells her that Orochimaru is going to kidnap Karin at some point, and there's not a damn thing that Ran, or frankly the rest of the Rain village, can do about it. The only groups that potentially can defend Karin from being kidnapped by Orochimaru are...
Nope. (See, I can do it too!)
Paul is very explicitly not human anymore, and has on several occasions been injured just as badly as he has in this chapter. Sure, Paragon hasn't gone through the same amount of torture as Renegade has, but he's prepared and trained himself to want through pain...
