Its great to read about these stories, but it is exactly why I played Nethack only with a wiki. I’m not patient enough to figure all that out by myself.

Depends on what you like. The main character Shinji gets a lot of flak from people calling him weak and wimpy, while that is the whole point of the series: him addressing his anxiety and social problems.

I liked it a lot, since the aesthetic design of the robots and the angels is right up my alley. I also like the way every one of the characters is broken and noone is a hero.

But be warned: from the normal watching of the series you will not understand the background story. The series is about interhuman mental problems and big robots fighting big aliens is the way this series addresses it. There is a lot of techno babble speak which doesnt make sense, so don’t try to understand it too much. Lean back and enjoy the big fights destroying cities and then seeing them later being rebuilt again. There is a lot of engineering porn in NGE and I enjoy it immensely.

I mean… NGE was written for this question to not have a positive sounding answer. Your favourite NGE character is instead the diagnosis for your mental disorder.

Except Pen², as everybody knows.

I just know Korean Jesus lifts the cross without problems

Becaude we cant ask descendants about their wishes for example.

I found that it was the year holy roman emperor Frederick II., him being the grandchild of Barbarossa, died. apparently he managed to modernise the empire a bit and keep it together. After his death though the HRE fractured and couldn’t keep it’s power over the vassals, leading to the later fragmentated state.

Hopefully at one point nationalism is just history.

Very interesting article. And I agree with the authors conclusion: a collection of just female corpses is not random. So grave site it is. And the final question is something I hadn’t considered yet: how do we treat a non-human cultures remains? Scientifically its important to analyse it, but I understand that at a certain point it becomes grave robbery.

That tracks for the old Fritz. But that picture annoys me. It shows somebody more Akin to Bismarck or Wilhelm II. instead of the very much beardless Frederick the Great and especially not with a Pickelhaube which is nearly a century later.

Anubis is an anti-AI Software that has ironically in the beginning used an AI created image of a anthro Anubis as mascot

I mean yes there are different opinions about the dude, but they build him a statue where he is literally portrayed as an ancient Roman god would have been:

Edit: after reading the OP again, yeah the “entire” in there is what I disagree with as well.

Sure, keep telling yourself that instead of admitting you bought from Ea-Nasirs descendants.

Here is the origin of that one.

Its just about somebody misunderstanding the context of their current position in a way that is funny to outsiders who know the context.

I was thinking about including him for the nuclear bombs, but those havent been dropped yet. But true, the camps went past my head.

…. Which one would go to prison? Churchill for being Churchill or Stalin for being Stalin?

Here the wikipedia intro for him as context:

Arnold Johannes Wilhelm Sommerfeld (German: [ˈaʁnɔlt ˈzɔmɐˌfɛlt]; 5 December 1868 – 26 April 1951) was a German theoretical physicist who pioneered developments in both atomic and quantum physics, and also educated and mentored many students for the new era of theoretical physics.

Sommerfeld served as doctoral advisor and postdoctoral advisor to seven Nobel Prize winners and supervised at least 30 other famous physicists and chemists.

Sommerfeld introduced the second quantum number, azimuthal quantum number, and the third quantum number, magnetic quantum number. He also introduced the fine-structure constant and pioneered X-ray wave theory.

Never heard his name during my quantum physics courses, seems he was one generation too early to get stuff named after him. Edit: after checking, Planck was born 10 years earlier.

I find it more likely that the person showing up at the end is the real dragon but in disguise. But let’s see what happens.

I know what you mean. And yeah, that part is much smaller now. Probably since Guts started on his second journey with his new team.

But honestly: Femto and the God Hand were build up too much over the whole series. It would be absolutely ridiculous that Guts could just cut those nearly-gods that can manipulate space itself (as shown with Skull Knights attack on Femto). So some kind of upgrade for Guts or downgrade for Femto had to happen. Will be interesting to see if Guts & Cascas child inside Femto is just that downgrade from his near-god status.

In my opinion it’s the opposite. Because he is outside destiny, he has the unique chance(!) to defeat them. That defeat is not guaranteed (of course it will happen, who ends a story like Berserk with “and the protagonist failed, and nothing changed whatsoever”), but even the possibility was not there before him. And now it is due to his status as somebody between the worlds. Destiny and Guts status outside of it was always a big part of the groundwork of Berserk.

Yes, never said they were real, just said what the artist intended to portray.

I think it’s rather:

Tax man didn’t come this year either, I won’t run searching for him.

It’s supposed to be a helmet with wings, not a Roman one.

Yes, which is exactly why so many of us gamers and GOG customers are complaining about it. Because we all support Nazis.

Do you use your head only as decorative accessory to your hat or also for other stuff?

Still havent received an apology newsletter from GOG about their mistake, so still only empty PR statements.

That doesn’t really sound like a good result but just juvenile need of standing your ground and proving your power and “not taking shit”. So yeah, typical libertarians shit the idolise.

What good did he do or resulted from his actions?

Wikipedia says

The damage was estimated at $7 million,[25][26] $2 million of which was to the concrete plant (underinsured, resulting in a payout of $700,000).[1]

Many town records and archives were destroyed along with the town hall.[1]

[….]

Patrick Brower, a reporter who had covered Heemeyer’s numerous disputes for years and who was nearly killed during the attack, has reported receiving threatening and insulting comments as a result of pushing back against the narrative portraying Heemeyer as a hero and martyr.

What part of that is good?

I’m seriously baffled by the hero worship for this obviously ego driven person that snapped and simply lashed out.

Dorohedoro is already finished. It already was before the first season even got released!

The manga ended in September 2018 and the first anime was aired in January 2020.

So sadly it looks more like it just wasn’t successful enough to get the funding immediately. But I’m happy to see it getting a slow release then an axing.

Thank you for the answer, something like that is what I imagined to be!

So it is the dreaded “it depends”.

I mean that is our western, mostly European perspective on it. Can anybody with knowledge tell how the Ottoman empire is seen in Islamic countries or in other regionslike in India or China?

Ah that’s unfortunate. I forgot about it, but you are right, the motion blur is very strong here and there are often forced camera movements.
