I can't be positive and maybe it's just cause she's a caster but I would swear his AI targets Atoli above all else

there is something about this particular bit of shounenism that rubs me extremely the wrong way
00:05
but I'll just get around to that if I write again sometime
Shaiapouf03-Apr-22 12:05 AM
yeah I know, I get it
archaeo03-Apr-22 12:05 AM
anyway I assume that he's coming back up as a black super blob monster or something?
Shaiapouf03-Apr-22 12:05 AM
I can appreciate it for what it is while also being like "you know taken as a whole body of work all of this just amounts to 'better things aren't possible'"
archaeo03-Apr-22 12:06 AM
or do we need to do the whole bit where Goku, Gohan, Piccolo, and Krillin celebrate Frieza's defeat after the spirit bomb
00:06
yeah that's actually just
00:06
you kind of got it all right in one right there
Shaiapouf03-Apr-22 12:06 AM
that being said--I don't think Sakaki's plan of Brainwashing Everyone into his personality cult is exactly Fully Automated Luxury Communism
archaeo03-Apr-22 12:07 AM
well no, naturally not
Shaiapouf03-Apr-22 12:07 AM
So I'm not gonna get Big Mad about it
archaeo03-Apr-22 12:07 AM
I mean I'm not really Big Mad either
00:07
it's just also all part of the like
00:07
weft and weave of media under capitalism I guess or something, who cares
Shaiapouf03-Apr-22 12:07 AM
basically
00:07
Once you notice it it is remarkable how many narratives revolve around it
00:07
Usually fairly unexamined
archaeo03-Apr-22 12:08 AM
oh I'm struggling to think of a story that actually does something with it that's interesting
00:08
maybe Gurren Lagann?
00:08
FMA avoids it quite nicely, imo
Shaiapouf03-Apr-22 12:08 AM
Trails of Azure sort of does, in that they actually do suffer some pretty serious repercussions in exchange for preserving the status quo over a utopian ideology they disagree with.
archaeo03-Apr-22 12:08 AM
to me I think
00:09
it has a lot less to do with the genre and a lot more to do with the people who were telling stories in it
Shaiapouf03-Apr-22 12:09 AM
anyways as I've said this is why I stan Edelgard
archaeo03-Apr-22 12:09 AM
lol
Shaiapouf03-Apr-22 12:09 AM
okay but getting back on topic
archaeo03-Apr-22 12:09 AM
yes by all means
Shaiapouf03-Apr-22 12:09 AM
instead of Sakaki showing up as a blob monster
00:09
00:09
something else happens
00:09
MI YA YA

Shaiapouf03-Apr-22 12:10 AM
there is like a weird glitchy thing on the screen and ovan recoils in pain
