  1. I absolutely agree with you about your take on human nature. I'll have to read up on Rosseau, his arguments resemble very much those posed by Mencius and Liao Fan :D

      It just makes sense if you accept that humans are reasonable.

    2. Galen

      Humans are indeed reasonable. The problem arises when people start thinking that they aren't by virtue of a history that's mired in others acting as harbingers of people's suffering, making it look like our nature is vile when it's only a product of harmful conditioning by those few who hold power in society.

      Exactly. Such as media influence in modern Western Society. Although I guess we can thank media for cool things like the internet, and MLP.

      I keep thinking back on who the most awesome villain was in the series and I have to agree. I really miss Enel a lot and I sincerely hope to see him again. Idk if you read the manga but there have been random hints here and there suggesting he might make another appearance. Then again, most villains have so far.

      And yeah, Goro Goro no Mi is best devil fruit. I've yet to see another devil fruit with the same destructive power. I suspect the Mera Mera and the Yami Yami no Mi would be just as badass but Ace and Blackbeard haven't used them to their full potential. Then there's Kuzan and Sakazuki. God help anyone who has to fight them.

  5. Hey, just wondering out of curiosity, but what's with the alignment legions? I'm inclined to join the neutral legion being neutral good myself but some info on what these legions do would be nice please :33

  6. Thanks for the friend request :D Your story of how you got into the bronydom is rather interesting, I daresay

    1. Bronikky

      Not a problem!

      And why, thank you! I really like your story too! And you're a fan of the Avatar series!? Same! :D

      Not as much nowadays. Book 2 hasn't really been that great so far apart from a few exceptional characters :/ What other stuff do you follow?

  7. Indiana Jones was Han Solo's dream when he was frozen in carbonite. Trufax.

      who does Daring Do dream about?

  8. Your assessment of the gif is actually really close. There was no cupid involved, but the character in the gif is a known lover of all women who had been forced to live with Ookama for 2 years. In the gif, he's bleeding because he's seeing real women for the first time and actually did almost died xD

      Nah, really? Yeah, tho it's more commonly referred to as the Underground to us Londonites

  9. Yo! So I started reading "Courtship of Princess Leia" this week. Tbh, I'm having a really hard time understansing why Leia's feelings for Han, right from the beginning, are a little lacking. It makes me wonder if something happened between the book and ROTJ.

      Each author has her portrayed slightly different depending on the situation. Don't worry though, you'll go back to loving her soon. I am sure of it ^-^

       

      Let me know how you like it as it goes on. It has been ages since I've actually talked about the book series with people - not many people I know actually bother reading them >.<

    3. Galen

      Galen

      I certainly will, good sir! Personally, I'm looking forward to reading the Thrawn trilogy after this :33

    4. DiscordAnarchy

      DiscordAnarchy

      Let me know how that trilogy plays out. I kept trying to get into it but I just was never a fan of the author's writing style. I should go back considering it is one of the most important trilogies of the franchise XD

       

      Oh, and thanks to you, I'll be re-reading Courtship later this week XD

  10. LOL, I never thought people would mistake Ranma for Scootaloo.

  11. So I read your post on the SnK thread and was wondering how the anime of season 1 finishes that is different from the manga?

      Then also in the anime, after capturing annie, they go and skip the titan in the wall part as if no one saw it until after the ending credits when no one was around to see it.

    3. Galen

      Galen

      Anime adaptations tend to have a lot more fanservice in them, and Jean happens to be a fan favorite for some reason, which would explain why he gets a lot more screen time. And yeah, that doesn't make sense. Eren was in full control by the time the female titan was discovered. One thing I am absolutely excited for.....well, two rather, is the introduction of APE TITAN and Eren vs Reiner. I'll pick up the anime again just for those :33

    4. Despair

      I know! It's going to be great! ^^

  12. Momonosuke, you lucky b*stard

  14. IS IT SATURDAY YET?????

  15. I hate whistling. So. Much.

      Why is this?

  16. Geez. I just got back from my week-long holiday and I'm already wanting for the Xmas holiday.

  17. It's Buddy!!!!! Out of this World has got to be one of the hardest games I've ever played.

    1. letterone

      letterone

      You'd probably enjoy this then. It's where I got the idea to use this character as my avatar and name as my current username. :P

    2. Galen

      Galen

      AHHHH yeah! I saw that, how could I have forgotten? xDDD Now your (former) name makes sense! I think that was also Buddy's only line in the game. I've never actually finished it tho :(

    3. letterone

      letterone

      Hard games are haaaaaaaaaaaard.

       

      Speaking of which, I'm working on a 100% run of Donkey Kong 64. First time attempting to play it all the way through.

  18. Great Asuna avy. Really loved her look in that scene :33

      Boss battles were some of the best things about SAO, nvm that they were some of the best anime has to offer <3 I actually hope they'll make another season. The books after the Alfheim arc are way better in quality.

    3. LanceTheTurtle

      LanceTheTurtle

      I think they're, so far, the best thing about SAO. I wonder if the book is as 'harem'-y. (Not that I mind harems, I was just expecting something different.) Ah! I forgot that mangas accompany most anime! But I suppose I never really thought about there being a SAO manga.

      I hope they make another season too. I haven't watch the Fairy Dance arc yet, but I hear it made people :(

    4. Galen

      Galen

      The anime's pretty much 100% loyal to the light novels (this anime is based on that rather than the manga tho that's also a thing), tho you don't actually get as much of a harem feel in the books' main storyline. Some of the episodes where Kirito is interacting with other characters like Lisbeth take place in side stories from separate books that I haven't actually read. And yeah, Fairy Dance is pretty rage inducing. The main villain turns out to be half as bad as Joffrey...

  19. And just like that, Naruto became every Christian's favorite manga.

  20. Missed you at the O2 this weekend D=

      Oh, not a meet-up; we were just visiting family friends. I could've made excuses about schoolwork and stayed here to go to the meet, but I hadn't seen them in ages and it'd have been rude.

       

      But yeah, I know what you mean about that - even though these are the friendliest guys ever, meets are ever so spontaneous :P

    3. Galen

      Galen

      Hope you had a good time either way :D I'm going to see my family again today as well, flying back to Italy in the afternoon until next week.

       

      Will you be around at the MCM? Tho with that said, I'll most likely be in the Japanese area since I'm going there mainly for the anime/manga expos.

    4. An Old Head

      An Old Head

      Cheers, and have fun n.n From the looks of things I'll be at MCM, and I might just have a cosplay in mind. I'll have to venture into the Japanese area to find you :)

  21. MA UNNI STAI IENNU CU DA NAVI?

  22. Oh I wish I could brohoof the last post you made in the Star Wars thread more than once xD I'm sure I'm gonna have pretty good read and it's great to know where I can start from for once.

    1. DiscordAnarchy

      DiscordAnarchy

      Hey, I understand how it feels. I didn't get into star wars for the longest because I had no clue where to start. Hopefully once you get into the Tales Books, you'll feel more comfortable diving into the bigger stories ^_^.

       

      If you ever need a chronological order or where to go next, always feel free to hit me up ^_^

    2. Galen

      Galen

      Yeah, the post I made there was actually in terms of where to start chronologically, especially since the EU tales are told through so many mediums (books, comics, games, etc), tho I'm mainly interested in the events shortly after the OT albeit not so much post-Vong war in the end. Also some interest in the Old Republic stories.

      P.S. Kyle Katarn is best Jedi ;P

    3. DiscordAnarchy

      DiscordAnarchy

      Not a problem ^_^ Some of the newer books have the chronology printed on the front pages, but some of those books are not so well written (the Coreillian trilogy...burr). When you get the chance to read TALES, lemme know. Love to see what you think
