Yea alot of passions in this world you can't make money from, that's why I think all of this is just stupid. Idc about alot of things and I find it devastating that we're all on a hamster wheel. I'd prefer to be active too ,rather than be in a lab. Yea you need to think with your logic rather than heart ,however won't you feel it in the end? Knowing this is something you truly don't wanna do at all. I'm still figuring things out myself. But something tells me I'm taking the wrong route or thinking in the wrong direction towards it.

Ooh I'm use to doing that ,as to why it usually doesn't confuse me. Answer one topic in 1 or to 2 sentences, the next in one or two sentences ,so on so forth..

Yes I hear alot of these crooks are very charming and charismatic as to how they're easily able to get victims. Alot of ppl just question why they don't date hookers and sleep with them ,but heck these guys victimize these hookers as well ,it's crazy.

The whole boruto should just cancel ,bcuz why make the same thing over and over again 😒 I think the average naruto enjoyer can write a better story.

Lol I actually had this one planned for quite sometime. Alice in the wonderland and Alice in madness is a great duality together ,also Pandora needs some more fanart and series she's in. I'll prob change back to her some time around lml

That's kinda true that they're somewhat similar. Lol Ur partner is the same sign as you ,I knew my idea would be a good one. I'm guessing you'd be the gold saint and your partner would be the bf that's retired maybe lol

Yea west society likes go getters and mainly give them glory for it. But I'm just saying there is nothing wrong with the opposite either tho. The earth was built of creation, with nurture which for sure sounds like nature ,with patience and no rushing things all the time ,things rlly did come into fruition, so why completely disregard the other? Sucks I do wish I can change things.

I knew a girl that had an attraction to guys she couldn't get. If they were to start to liking her back ,she'd lose interest bcuz ig the chase is no longer there.
• Do you prefer to be the one doing the chasing in terms of romance or be chased ?

Now this part is rlly interesting, since I'm a firm believer of you attract what you're, however there are some cases where opposites do attract. I've seen quite alot where if ppl are too similar they may split ,it just all depends. I'm not a clingy person, but I wouldn't mind if my partner was.......to an extent. I guess it just depends how well you guys work together.

Lol I mean go ahead. Anime planet has quite alot of features I find better than MAL and vice versa. So I was like might as well get them both. It was quite funny how I got anime planet. I asked ppl back in 2019 on amino if I can get their anime lists (I meant MAL) And ppl started to send me their anime lists on other websites lol. I saw this girl have AP ,I looked around and just ended up liking it, alot of cool features I'd say. It's not as social as MAL tho. My top 4 Is amazing ,thanks lmaoo

Hmmm I'm very neutral on SS rightnow ,like I'll finish some more series sure lol. But it'll just linger in my watched anime ,idk if it'll land in my favorites tho. It takes awhile for me to actually miss a series when I've finished it ,for me to want to make it one of my favorites. Inuyasha brings back way too much memories, alot of my family knows about Inuyasha bcuz when we were much younger ,we'd watch inuyasha on adult swim whenever it aired. Ik I've said this like 100x alrdy ,but I rlly belive the 2000s were the peak of anime. Inuyasha ,blood + ,Naruto ,Kenichi ,Airgear ,airmaster ,pre-cure, Claymore etc... the 90s had some real bangers as well tho DBZ ,yyh ,Sailor moon and other stuff lol

Supposedly people stop watching anime when they get older
in this generation, I can tell we all still will be watching anime even in our 40s ,so times most def will be diff compared to back then. Finding an adult cast is like findingna hay in the needle stack ,there's barely Any out there. Alot of mangakas have to realize 20 and 30 is still technically young. A 30yo that's lost and doesn't completely know what he wanna do in this world is completely fine (imo). A 50yo would call someone 30 to be young ,so not all of them are grown ups rlly. Like how DMX said "I'm a big boy now, but I'm still not grown" lol I for sure wouldn't mind a female Virgo gold saint, but I'm be honest shaka was amazing ,I don't think she'd be able to top him as more favorable. I can tell the creator rlly put alot of thought and time into shaka lml

Lol Shaina calms down a bit and admits she loves seiya. I don't ship them either. But I wouldn't totally be against it ?? Lol. I originally thought he was gonna end up with the orphanage girl and not saori. I'd like to see all type of cloths or mythological creatures for me to choose my own and I have one question. If seiya takes the saggitarius cloth ,shuryu the libra ,hyoga the Aquarius, what will happen with their previous cloths? I mean those cloths can still go gold whenever they max out their cosmos ,so it still has some value ig.

Lol I'm be real, inuyasha is lowkey kinda toxic and his jealousy/anger issues is absurd. I heard he's mentally 15 and he matures every 10 years or something like that ? But I'd choose him over sssuke too

Well I mean you're not an Uchiha, unless if you go to the naruto world you'd wanna be one ? I don't think he'd kill you unless you were.

I mean even God has a goddess ,right? I think shaka will marry, but prob not date idk.

Lol. Kirinmaru looks cooler I suppose. Was he a villain yashahime made up or was he always in inuyasha ? Those were some decent choices you picked ,maybe I made them too easy lol

■ This one might get you upset ,but I gotta go with princess peach. I didn't like Sasha like that, she was just ok as a character, while I think Saori has a bit more substance and build up to her. It was quite sad to see her cry while she asked saga to kill her.
■WOW.......this one is hard. I like them both ,but in terms of dating I gotta go with..............bloom (sorry Musa). I actually like bloom and how easy going and willing to fight for what's right (may sound cliche) ,but I'd love Musa too tho.
■I gotta go with Flora. Stella is wayy too high maintenance spoiled rich girl that wants the best of the best things lol. Flora is more chill and in tune with nature .
■ Lmaoo I'd go with sakura tbh. Usaga is a great character, but something about her Is not my type at all ,she's cute ,but I never found her that attractive as well.
■Pandora. The greatest thing about Nana (the show) is that the characters feel so realistic. Nana Osaki wasn't my fav character, but I rlly appreciate the authors work and I forgot Nana was made in the 2000s as well. Rlly peak.

You want another batch of dudes ?
.....oh well ,gonna fire them anyway lmao
•Vegeta or Madara
• Yusuke or Gohan
•Kurama (yyh) or Android 17
•Leorio (Hxh) or Loid Forger (Spy x family)
• Illumi (HXH) or Hisoka lpl

Yes you're right. I love anime, but it's time to put more time and energy into the next hobby, since this is all becoming the same. I will still watch ofc ,however it's time to lean more towards elsewhere. I wish there was a more 2d style of Chinese anime ,instead of the 3d style they like to use and with diff fashion as well. I see they like the old tropes with the robes and old historical....stuff

Ummmm, what makes me cry? I barely ever cry tbh. But i can make myself cry at will ,I barely have any feelings ,I'll give you a little something about me tho ,there are no water signs in my natal chart.

Hell yea! Drop everything for sailor moon. Sailor moon rlly is a treasure and one of the best.

And there will be more emotional scenes coming! I even think many of these were more powerful in the anime than in the manga. Of course, music adds that emotion more, but also when in the manga many of these scenes just feel too fast. Also, when I listen that "Gin and Daisuke" track from the soundtrack, I always think about my childhood and all those people which were in my life back then. And that lake scenery of my grandparents' old home <3



It's so surprising how this violent anime can have so beautiful music! :D
Findog Nov 20, 7:02 AM
Oh yes, especially that end scene of episode 8 where he says goodbye to his mother, Fuji, and Daisuke, is always so touching, and also nostalgic when in the Finnish dub, Fuji says: "Live happily" ;__;
Findog Nov 20, 6:31 AM
Yay, as I see you finally got into the best part of Gin, when the real adventure begins!!! :D

Thy-Veseveia Nov 19, 1:17 PM
I try not to rlly discuss stuff online anymore. Can't believe it took me the age I am now to rlly find out it's pretty pointless. Three degrees is crazy ,were you rlly confused on what you wanted to do in life? I don't even like school that much, my anxiety flourishes up quite high. Lol u understand my point ,but don't know what we're talking about anymore? That's rather bizarre. Ppl do read to respond rather than read to listen. So it's no surprise rlly ,ppl just argue to prove that their beliefs are right ,mainly an ego battle.

You know I always thought of that on the street? I'm like I know some of these guys are killers ,stalkers ,rapists and I have absolutely no idea since they look normal and not giving off any type of bad energy I suppose. I always wondered what type of energy I give off to ppl.

Oh shoot I'm not caught up ,I'm literally just so not interested in boruto ,but I'll catch up tonight to see if I can edit this paragraph. Literally nothing new is ever displayed in naruto ,having jiraiyas clone mentor narutos son.....that is so originalll.........

She looks very nice in the lost canvas ,but there's just something about her hades arc design that I like more. That purple fits her more than just the all black and she look more mysterious/devious in the hades arc. In the lost canvas she is quite elegant looking. Yea the animators or w.e they're called did very good.

Lol hate him? That's crazy ,but I can kinda understand why. Things tend to go out of order and be quite repetitive, sooo.....he should get backlash from his fans.

Lml I still feel like Jabu level tbh ,since there's alot to this series ,but I think I do get gist of everything. It's simple and not overly complicated like some anime. It's funny bcuz ik alot of Aquarius in life ,not very fond of em, but hey! It all depends on the person. You have a deep desire for both thr master and the student lol you might rlly be into Aquarius men. With my idea ,I just find it cool and funny on how they'd portray their wives to be like and will they be fighters just like their husbands.

Yea I was wondering that. Some of the gold saints are still Alive in the lost canvas and they barely showed up in the series scorpio ,Aquarius, sagg , (I never saw the leo or gemini), so the fact that it ended the way it did ,ig just tells me I gotta read it now.

In this society masculinity is more praised and highlighted. Ppl mainly admire the loud ,out there ,goal driven ,stable ,strong ,center of attention type of ppl. Ig in society they mainly like women being feminine and men being masculine. Both genders are shamed for displaying strong traits of their opposites, but I noticed in society it's slowly being accepted to be dominant in ur supposed opposite.

Lol yea ,idk now tho. Some still may like them types of dudes ,I just know if I was a woman I most def would not find that attractive. How do you feel about men who are very lonesome, not clingy ,loves space and would want their own separate space from their partner ,would you date a guy like this ?

Yea for sure gender doesn't matter. I always try to recommend therapy to ppl who have anger issues ,anger is such a dangerous emotion ,hurting others or yourself in the long run. I've seen ppl who can literally go 0 to 100 in the blink of an eye ,no one can ever make me that angry. My anger takes a little bit more time to process lol

Speaking of futuristic ,I only watched 1 2024 anime this year lmaoo. I mainly just watch a bunch of old retro stuff and found stuff I rlly loved. I'll show you my top fav anime loli can guarantee you it's gonna be a bunch of stuff u never heard of. My Fav

I guess you have a life time phase with certain series. My biggest phase was dragonball ,buy the dbs manga destroyed it long agooo. My phases for certain shows and characters run out couple weeks to years. My SS phase is still somewhat in effect ,but it's not that strong compared to other series I've watched or played.

Lol I'm conflicted between is Pandora me or are we a romantic thing fling 💜🖤
I guess that just shows that I rlly love myself, but in all seriousness I suppose someone in the SS team must've been a Virgo born on Sept3 ,it's no coincidence that 2 of their characters have that bday and they both share a very important role in the series. Ms Saori is also a Virgo I noticed so they must see Virgo as a feminine sign, but it makes sense since the symbol of a Virgo is a virgin (woman) so I'm not mad at all. Shun is a Virgo I assume and they're gonna turn him into a woman in the knights of the zodiac later lol ,so ig we will get a virgo female gold saint. We for sure need more mature anime ,also display their birthday as well. More timeskips would be cool and I get that it's audience is mainly for young ppl ,but what about when the young ppl get older?

I lowkey forgot about those 2. They're so powerless at this point , but I think they've been handled well tho. Idk if I ship seiya and Shaina tho....😕❓️but he doesn't seem to rlly like her that much I suppose. Shuns chains are a little funny especially when you lose to them. Since they're more for restraining and protecting ppl ,rather than in an offensive type of weapon which actually fits his personality.

We can play a little game. Based on ur liked characters ,who would you rather date between the two of each choice.
•Sasuke or Inuyasha
•Itachi or Sesshomaru
•Camus or Shaka
• Naraku or Hades
• Kirinmaru (Yashahime) or Poseidon
I forgot to say this. But I love how when you cut off apart of kirinmarus body. It actually becomes a person lol ,it's like his kids.

Yea for sure they don't look alike or even act. But the mom must've been really pretty to look like shun and as for the dad....regular ig

Yes I agree. Some anime are best seen as your first anime. But when you've seen hundreds of other anime ,it's a no no. That's why it's so hard for me to watch fairytail now. Back in like 2012 when I was rlly young ,I loved fairytail and enjoyed damn near every ep (this was back when fumigation had a YT channel and full series was on there) ,but now I can't even get far in the dsmn show. That's prob why alot of ppl love the new popular shows, since they're not big anime watchers and alot of ppl started in 2020 with covid

Oh my, that's alot of crying. Save some tears for the rest of the babies in the world...nah I'm playing lmaoo. I haven't cri3d much in naruto, bcus most of the time rooting for the villain lmao. But even they got sad deaths. Like sasori, kisame (Kisame had the best death in the series. He went out like a real one and that flashback of him and itachi was just amazing) . Yea ik kishimoto didn't have any intention of her playing a bigger role ,but he needs to understand the potential of his characters and how to utilize them better. It's no coincidence so much ppl are making their own naruto re-writes lol bcuz so much was left out and much more to explore

I'm questioning why you cried on some of these tbh lol. It's funny bcuz there's a few games for sure that ik you'd like and make you cry. If you cry easily.

Well I mean usagii is a huge cry baby too and cries for everything, but we still love her tho ,power to the moon 🌙 and monies
Thy-Veseveia Nov 16, 7:17 PM
They rlly only care about the money. I use to debate quite a bit and something I will tell you is that ppl cherry pick ,they pick and choose sources/arguments that supports their arguments of things. It's a little weird ,I went back and forth with ppl so much to the point where I can now tell if someone is willing to listen to reason or they're just reading to respond and put me down it's a cool power I have. Yea you should check sources ,double check them and all that you said, but I do just know that I'm willing to listen to certain things ,but I still know alot of stuff if forged to make certain groups look bad. Corporations and journalism go hand in hand and I just think it's all about money at the end of the day. Spreading knowledge is one thing ,but to be used as lab rats to collect your own data for w.e purpose you have in mind is quite cruel.

Lol you're close. That's some good detective work officer jellybean 🚨 👮‍♀️ . I usually never give out my age ,bday or even pics of myself anymore after realizing how many weird ppl are over the internet. Since ppl like to dox, save pics and stuff lol. I usually let ppl guess what I am.

The power of friendship trope got real corny now. As I mentioned how 16yo Shonen protagonists are beating final bosses that's been training and have like hundreds of years of experience in combat. The protagonists pretty much get their powers like 3 years ago.

I mean ig. Naruto just has so much flaws....Jesus christ where do I begin.....its cool and all that boruto is heavily inspired by sasuke ,but I'd like it If he mixed his own style of combat with what and how he was taught. I agree that some characters are too moral for me which makes them kind of boring, which is usually the Shonen protagonists, did I mention that it'd be cool if sarada was trained by naruto ? Awesome idea. I always thought of that ,how come narutos generation is where the clans to started to become mixed? Ik we got asuma and kurenai from the previous generation ,but shouldn't alot of them be mixed instead of just sticking in their clan when reproducing, I just find that odd.

It is funny because your entire profile is about Pandora; perhaps you will reincarnate as her.
I find this hilarious as well bcuz I didn't even know at first. Once I changed to her on my pfp ,I said to myself "why does this actually fit me? And it feels right" from before I was swapping pfo like once a week but the Pandora feels oddly fitting ,now i know why 🤔 I prob was a reincarnate of her some time ago. If I do reincarnate as her ,atleast I know I'll be hot ,so looks won't ever be a problem for me. [Quote] reused many elements from the previous series, including the character designs. Most gold saints from the past look exactly like the Og ones. xD [/quotes] That's what I don't like. Change it up a bit ,he acts as if these guys are previous reincarnates of the gold saints ,like nooo change up their powers and Aesthetic up a bit.

Now b4 I get into the next paragraph I must let you know I finished the last canvas and I shall share my review on it with you lol. We get to see a better portrayal of the gold saints which is good. The pope and his brother was pretty good. Tenma was meh ,he didn't display anything I never seen b4. The girl on his team was alr ig and so as the unicorn 🦄 guy. I wanted to see a bit more power from him ,since they treated him like fodder lol. I rlly liked the relationship between the cancer saint manigold and the pope. The Capricorn I liked his attitude ,in the last episode dohko seems to be dead ,but ik he's not....I wonder how he survived. I like how the bad guy won in the end ,you don't see that too often. Tenma just often yelled at the top of his lungs when someone died lol. I just thought of this as well ,but it would be cool if you're a gold saint ,you can only marry someone with ur zodiac and pass down the gold cloths to ppl of that zodiac sign you have

Now here's the thing about masculinity and feminity ,they're duality like Ying and yang pretty much. We're all on a spectrum between the two and the real goal is to have a good balance of both. Femininity isn't weakness. There are times where men need to be kind ,caring, in touch with their emotions and expressing it for inner relief. It's cool to be logical which is associated with masculinity, but sometimes you need to be intuitive (which associated with femininity) bcuz your gut feeling never lies to you. both have good and bad qualities about them ,there's alot of incels ,redpill, over masculine fake dudes online that all they do is bash women everyday for w.e reason. It's mainly men who control this world and notice how messed up it is. Men consists of majority of murders ,kidnappings ,sexual assaults, traffickings, genocide and etc so idk how they could mainly hate women when it's rlly alot of the men thatre the problem. It takes more than muscles to show true strength.

I'm not attracted to men ,but I most def agree. A man that is calm and collected ,but strong when he needs to be is very attractive. Back in school alot of women found the guys who were angered very easily ,popular and usually got in alot of trouble to be the attractive one's. I never even liked being friends with those type of dudes growing up and another things that's attractive for men is if he knows how to handle rejection. A man that can handle it well and just move on without having to curse someone out or bash the girl that rejected him is a huge green flag I see.

SAC series ? I mean I'm not too into androids and stuff ,but I'll five it a watch sometime around ,it's just not too into my main priority atm.

The Artemis look like a sailor moon a character I just looked up. Aphrodite? Isn't he a man? A very feminine one I guess. Lol the saint seiya creator prob isn't even feeling it as much anymore ,so don't be surprised if you guys get something half-assed.

Lmaoo you still want more.....? It's gonna be an endless cycle like OP pretty much.

I think you're fine actually. In saint seiya omega aren't they like 30?? You could just use that one if anything lol. I tend to not care....to an extent about the ages of anime characters if you like them or not. The viewers usually don't have a choice bcuz these creators are always putting the setting in highschool and teenagers as the MC lol ,idk why they don't like making adults as much as they do with overused trope of high school ages. Nahhhh...I'll take Pandora, until I find someone better ofc 😭 I don't think saint seiya care about their women too much unless it's athena.

He must've slept with everything in sight. Had women trafficked and all that. Also ,why does ikki and shun keep calling themselves brothers then ,is it bcuz they got the same mom and Dad? Yea the dude that fought hyoga was Hella ugly lol. Atleast all his kids are strong tho..somewhat. yea their father must've had hella recessive genes apparently.

, but I do not like stories where the characters' sole purpose in life is to be yaoi
this makes sense bcuz there's a bit of gay ppl who's whole personality is just being gayy ,so when a yaoi/BL story is just bout being gay and gender ,I'm sure there's a bit of audience in the LGBT that could relate...Alot. but it's good when they understand that being gay is just a sexuality and not a personality trait.

Yea as I said, something in me never clicked with bleach. I always tried to watch it and I played one of the games ,but the show just never clicked or appealed with me that much. But from you and my other friend are LITERALLY saying the same thing about it ,shows I believe it's true. The show is prob for kids at that point.

Lol it's a unpopular opinion of mine but I thought it would be cool to have konan on narutos team a little bit during the war ,have ger guide him around the edo tensai and instead of neji sacrificing himself for naruto/hinata ,I'd let it be konan who died for naruto. Give her some more screen time and develop a relationship with naruto a bit. Yea sasuke and obito still on teams would've been better. To me it didn't make sense to help naruto stop madara and kaguya ,just for him to turn on them and saying he wants to start a revolution. Obviouslyyyyy naruto would stop him and sasuke should've known that ,so might as well stay on obitos team ,betray him later if anything

The closest time was when naruto said goodbye to Minato and he was just venting everything to him about his whole life. All the other hokages listening , while they rlly respected naruto for everything he did in the war was extremely sad. As much as u don't like naruto ,I truly felt bad for him and even forgiving the guy who started all this and ruined his life.

Lol even with other fandoms I still like to trash naruto ,but I just like to talk about it since its fun. Naruto Is one of those anime where various paths and roads could've been took to make the show better or flesh out Characters who had more potential.

Heck yea I played kingdom hearts. I was a pretty huge fan back then and I been playing since I was a kid. I been out of the kingdom hearts loop for a couple of years tho. I like the Disney characters lol I can understand it's a little silly ,but they play a huge role and Mickey is the king. Yea kh can be very confusing since they were making stuff up as they go.

SM is great ,it's better when u finish it bcuz it makes u miss it and to me it's a great comfort show. Great comedy, great ost ,greatest characters and still great artstyle. Sm rlly is one of the best
Jaiimy Nov 16, 7:32 AM
I've been doing good, thanks! Just trying to juggle work and personal life so my watching habits are a bit inconsistent, but overall I'm doing fine. 😊

I have been enjoying Naruto a lot. It's my second show out of the Big 3. One Piece was the first, which I caught up to last year. Naruto this year, so maybe Bleach next year? 😂

I'm really surprised at how much of a shounen junkie I've become. I used to have a lot more variety. But it could just be a shounen phase haha, who knows. Do you have a favourite genre or type of anime you like watching? 🤔

I can also see what you mean about the village elders being corrupt, especially Danzo. Man, I hate his guts! I’m glad Sasuke “took care” of him heh heh. And don't worry I've seen the backstory from Madara and Hashirama. I think I've got one canon arc left and a bunch of filler. Next up is more of Itachi's childhood. Not sure if it's canon, but I'll be watching it anyway because Itachi is badass. 🔥

I’m prety much obsessed with Naruto right now yeah. I’ve put everything else on hold to just focus on this for now. Not sure if I’ll be watching Boruto because I’ve heard it’s fairly controversial. I’d probably only watch it to see the Naruto cast in their adult years lol. I did hear the manga is a lot better though, especially Blue Vortex which is what you're reading. Also how is Ranma ½? Is it worth watching the old version over the ongoing new one?
Jaiimy Nov 15, 3:37 AM
Hey it’s been a few weeks and watched a lot of Naruto again hahaha. I’m honestly so not ready for the void when I finish it. I have around 60-70 episodes left including potential filler and a lot has happened in the meantime!

The handling of Edo Tensei wasn’t as bad as I expected. And considering it’s Naruto with its boundless imagination for jutsu, it’s not that much of a surprise. I mean, we even witnessed in the OG that Orochimaru was able to perform reincarnation on the 1st and 2nd hokages during the Konoha Crush arc. I’m more surprised about the fact that the 2nd hokage was the one who invented it.

The more I watch of Naruto, the more I see the idealism vs nihilism duality as well. For example, Ashura vs Indra, the Senju vs Uchiha, Hashirama vs Madara and even Naruto vs Sasuke are all part of those dualities. I thought that was a really interesting part of the story. Madara’s philosophy was really unique too. Love cannot exist without hatred. Peace cannot exist without war. Light cannot exist without darkness, etc. In a way, Madara strikes me as a realistic character, whereas Hashirama is more on the naive side of things.



And there’s Sasuke as well. His desire to actually NOT destroy Konoha in the end was so surprising to me. I wonder what his new answer is after all. Is it the current shinobi system? Why did he suddenly team up with Naruto? I still have some questions about him and I hope the remaining episodes will give me some clarity.

A bit of a semi-related question but do you have a favourite opening? I’ve just experienced the famous Silhouette opening and it was great! Definitely a top 5 for me. :) I also love Closer (OP 4), because I love how deep the song is and the lyrics feel so relatable. And Diver (OP 8) mainly for the visuals and emotional singing. Finally, Sign (OP 6) because it was a perfect song for the arcs it handled.

Bit of a long comment so I hope I didn’t overwhelm you. How are you doing? Have you been watching/reading anything good lately?
Thy-Veseveia Nov 14, 9:26 PM
Now I heard someone tell me that smoking (ciggs) was good for you back in the day. They had doctors verifying it , commercials advertising it and other professions spitting out crap on how it was beneficial for you ,then later they figured out everything was false. I do think some information and research are valid, but ik alot is not and forged to just to push certain narratives ,so I'm just very careful. As someone who's been Alive for sometime ,some things have scarred me and me very weary on if I should believe it or not. Schools lie ,scientists lie ,doctors etc.

Yea I rlly liked call of duty back then. MW3 ,Bo and BO2 amazing ,I've heard of medal of honor but never played it. I for sure will look it up later bcuz I think it was quite a popular game back then. I for sure miss splitscreen and co-op games. They were more fun for sure.

It prob did since it was quite popular. All popular and successful series inspire creators. Saint seiya maybe was the blue print for how shounen protagonists should act. Even tho I do think alot of other anime took certain things and have made it better with their own twists.

I mean I'm so and so on him just exposing boruto ,I get it and understand why he did it ,but he shouldn't have just done that infront of everyone lol. But naruto has to understand if he were to train his son ,maybe he wouldn't need to cheat for his approval lmaoo. I need to rlly need to catch up on boruto lol

I wanna see them All! Yea I'm a Virgo lol ,I just looked at her and realized Woah! Same bday and guess what.....Pandora got the same bday too lmaooo (its funny bcuz i didn't know till today) Not too much ppl have it. There's alot of things saint seiya needs to work on ,like zodiac portrayal, their techniques, and just alot of stuff need to be changed up.

Good question, masculinity to me is strong ,protective ,Assertive, Calm ,supportive and just have a good heart. Now if you were to ask me what feminine means to me ,I'd barely be able to give an answer lol..

I mean camus is a good looking man don't get me wrong lol. Alot of saint seiya men look good ,it's one of those shows where the men look alot better than the females (another show like this is wistoria)

Other way around. I gave her that recommendation lol and she told me to watch ghost in the shell In which I did. Was not half bad of a movie tho.

Lol you're free to spoil anything for saint seiya bcuz tbh it's not a show that gets me off my toes. Saint seiya is pretty predictable on how stuff will happen and end ,so yea.....spoil anything u want ,I'll still watch some of it's material until I go on hiatus with the franchise. In Greek mythology is athena the only female or is there more ? Surely they can date the gods ,would be quite a powerful kid they have.

For an old series I think it has alot of content to keep the fans satisfied alrdy. They did a good job with both series and manga offerings, they just need to work on the writing a little bit more and add diff elements to their story.

I just thought soul of gold was Canon ,sp that'd mean she's Canon too. But oh wells ,if she not in the manga.....we'll she don't play sn important role anyway. Yea I like how both are somewhat bad. The couple for sure could've worked out lol, they alrdy have history together and it's like...Pandora is nor rlly THAT evil or good and so ikki. There is a bit of duality there and she wanted to rely on him to take down hades, but this is no romance series lol.

Lol I don't ship them and thought it was a bit awkward, but I understood what shun was doing. If ppl like yaoi and want it ,that's fine but none of the main characters come off as rlly gay to me and thus was made in the 80s ,they most def are less likely to have boy couples. I remember this one time I was in a server on discord......lol it was yyh and this woman (the owner) asked me if I wanted to read a Yusuke x Hiei fanfic ,I said sure yaoi isn't my thing ,but I'm prob just gonna point and laugh at it. She then later tells me that she wouldn't want her fanfic being laughed at and found great offense to what I said. I literally didn't even know it was her fanfic of them lml ,so that's why I'm prob a little bit nicer when it comes to yaoi stuff

Yea inuyasha for sure deserves.....top 10 anime imo. It balances out alot of stuff and I never got bored watching it. Heck maybe even top 5.

I can argue naruto having the 9tails is a huge plot convenience and sasuke has alot of plot armor as well, but idk If I can say they possess more than ichigo.

I mean ig yea. The sad music is fitting. I never cried during watching naruto ,but I do think there should've been more deaths in the series. There's alot of what ifs that I'd like ,what if nagato never used the rinne-rebirth and left everyone dead in the leaf, what if sasuke stayed by obitos side and for the war arc I'd just change alot. I would've preferred it for hashirama and madara to give all their power strength and Chakra to naruto and sasuke ,instead of having some random ninja god give them powers.

There's so much to day bout sakura ,there was alot of potential that just completely went to waste.

I use to have Instagram and YouTube was where the bleach hate was Immenseeeeeee back then. When that tybw dropped ,that's when everyone became fans again lol. Yea One piece gets praised as if God wrote it. I do agree with alot of the naruto slander tho lol

Yea one of God's rules is never to criticize or disagree with anything the creator of one piece does. 10minutes is crazy ,lol idk why they're even doing recaps ,this day and age ppl can just simply go back and skim to the episode ,this isn't back then where we had to rely on the TV station for each episode lol. Lol idk if you had a computer or access to internet back then ,but do you remember narutoget.com (where it had all the episodes and movies out) dragonball and one piece had their own section for that website as well, good times.

Mannnnnn kingdom hearts was legit my childhood. It solos everything we just talked about ,but I'm sure Kh4 prob won't be good bcuz if you were to watch kh3 the ending ,it's clear they're running out of ideas and they just gonna make something up for this one.

Yea I been knew thar they were married. I love both of their works ,it's funny bcuz the sailor moon characters are wayyy stronger than yyh and hxh characters. Sailor galaxia can blow up planets pretty easily. Well I shouldn't spoil too much ,but sailor moon was a rlly fun watch that I sorta recommend.....to ppl who don't mind filler lmao

Alr I'm done

Sure thing!

Yeah, Next Dimension'a finale is good enough to be the definite conclusion to the series. As much as I'd like to see another story arc, I can't think of any valid reason for Saori to defy Apollo and his punishment. Doing so would only make her look like a real, genuine troublemaker capable of performing very selfish actions without looking at their consequences. Unless there's a huge threat endangering the Earth and humanity, or even the Olympus as a whole, I can't think of any logical continuation. Perhaps the spin-off option, i.e. showing Bronzies regaining their memories and becoming Gold Saints, wouldn't be that bad.

Oh yes, that beautiful double page was the best thing about that chapter. :D
DigiCat Nov 14, 9:57 AM
Yeah that twist was a really good one, but i don't think the series did a good job building up towards it T^T
Adnash Nov 14, 3:43 AM
Here are the clips. :) The first one features Dead or Dead song, which was planned to be the opening song for Hades arc had it been adapted in 1990s. The second one features another track (Interlude IV) from the same Drama CD compilation (Saint Seiya Hades-hen, or as people like to call it, Saint Seiya OST IX). You can hear Seiya, voiced by the original voice actor, during one emotional scene from the Hades arc.





Jérôme Alquié's fanmade animations blended so well with Seiji Yokoyama's brilliant soundtrack. :)

My brain can't take 4 more eps 🙀

Plus the plot twist seemed to already start end of the season
Adnash Nov 14, 2:32 AM
Oh, interesting. You do know a lot of Saint Seiya peculiarities.
Yeah, I like that kind of things. :)

The art looks different, but it is beautiful. Is it still ongoing? Is Chronos the main antagonist? That is what I read online. It is funny because I was talking to someone here on MAL who just got into Saint Seiya, and we were talking about Chronos. Because I believe Chronos transcends everything, being more powerful than even the Olympian gods, at least in Greek mythology, but eventually Zeus defeated Chronos. So I am curious how this story will unfold. I read a few pages just now. It appears to be quite engaging.
Yes, Saint Seiya: Time Odyssey is still an ongoing series. The third volume was released not that long ago. From what I read some time ago, this comic is planned to end in five volumes.
I agree that the art style is beautiful. Detailed, colorful, full of dynamism.
As for Chronos, the god of time, yeah, he is the main baddie in Time Odyssey.

By the way, it was Cronus who was defeated by Zeus, not Chronos. Both Chronos and Cronus are often mistaken with each other, but they are completely different entities.

Saint Seiya Episode G kind of made it more confusing, because Kronos not only has a name that's similar to Chronos and Cronos, but he also has traits of both of them, as if they were merged with each other into one god or something, lol. He is the leader of titans, just like Cronus, and his main ability is connected to controling time (so something like you'd expect from Chronos). ;D

Oh, actually, I was wondering if you liked the Asgard filler Arc? Everyone seems to dislike it. I thought it was quite interesting, and Norse mythology is also very captivating. Hilda made a good villain.
When I was a kid, I liked the visuals and atmosphere, but I also felt that it was awkward how the anime rooted so deep in Greek mythology switched from Greek to Norse mythology, only to come back to the former in the Poseidon arc. Or how a tall, muscular guy named Thor was the first opponent to job, lol.

After many years, I started to respect the Asgard arc more. I consider it a model filler arc. Asgard arc has all elements to be called as such: it's exclusive to the anime, but blends well with the story told in the show itself, and thus it's significant; it tries something new, but stays true to the soul of the anime to which it belongs; it is done with care, with high-quality art, music, and direction. Take character designs from it, in example. They didn't have to look that good, but they did, which was awesome and made the whole arc special.

There's also a fly in the ointment that can't be overlooked once someone reads the manga. Asgard arc blends well with the anime storyline, but disrupts the main storyline (let's call it "the canon story"). Because of that, the Poseidon arc in the anime feels less hmm... epic than it should have felt had there not been any story told before it and after the Sanctuary arc.

That's why I prefer to treat the manga and the anime storylines completely separately, with the manga having the privileged position as the original version of the story (obviously). By doing so one can enjoy both stories with the respect they deserve and without resolving to call one of them superior to the other. Both of them differ from each other a lot, even if their core remains the same, after all.

Fair enough. I only saw bits and pieces of Saint Seiya Omega, but that was enough to turn me off. First, the art style is quite poor. Then what happened to the clothes? They just look like cheap versions of the OG. Also, if I am not mistaken, they had elemental powers, such as water, earth, fire, or whatever it was. They did the OG bronze saints pretty dirty as well, except for Seiya. Well, I did not watch the entire thing, but it was a huge disappointment.
While the art style is a matter of one's preference, it can't be denied that it was one of the drastic changes offered by Omega. After all those beautiful designs created by Shingo Araki and Michi Himeno that we've gotten used to over all those years, we got something totally different. I totally understand complaints of fans who were put off by the new art style. I got used to it pretty fast, though. With time, it grew on me, and I ended up liking it for its unique look. It looked amazing in Casshern Sins anime.

About the Cloths change, ayy... Both the amulets thing and the introduction of elemental powers were elements I found the most difficult to get used to. xD I know that especially those amulets were better for merchandise and all, but I really missed Pandora boxes used to put the armors there and carry 'em around. That being said, I understand that change is better for the sake of modernizing the whole series. It worked well in CGI series or in the live-action movie.
As for elemental powers, they have always seemed something I think totally doesn't fit the Saint Seiya universe.

Have you watched it? What is your opinion?
Yup, I have. In general, I enjoyed it for what it was. A creative anime sequel that was meant to attract new viewers, but its beginning was so different from the main show that the older fans might've felt confused, upset, or angry.

The first half had cool moments, mostly related to the Sanctuary 2.0 part and Abzu, but also many of its episodes were sluggish and mediocre at best (the ones with Aria and the main gang traveling). The second half, however, was kino. It's one of my favorite Saint Seiya pieces, actually. If you get used to all those changes and just go with the flow, the second half can be a very entertaining experience.

Saint Seiya Omega is not a bad anime. It received a lot of hate, but in many cases those negative comments did not refer to the actual changes done in Omega itself, but the fact that it was simply different from the original show. Heck, some preferred to rather thrash elements that... have always been pivotal for the franchise. Characters burning their Cosmo, the power of friendship, knocked-out characters who suddenly stand up and defeat their opponents, the Sanctuary arc model of narration used in many parts, etc. ;p If those elements are bad, then welp, perhaps folks complaining about them weren't actually Saint Seiya fans, hehe.

Hahaha, I love TLC like a lot. For me, that is the best SS manga I ever read. But I will give the SS Omega manga a chance because you said so, and Santia Sho is there to prove that perhaps the manga is worth it. But it will require a great deal of willpower. lol But there is no way it is better than TLC 😭🥹😅
The Lost Canvas is good. I liked it. It's the first manga series I've ever completed, hehe. It's a shame that its anime adaptation stopped after just two seasons.

I don't think you will consider Saintia Shou better than TLC, but I think you might like it a lot nonetheless. As for Saint Seiya Omega manga, you can skip it. That's what I'd say, if it weren't for your goal of reading every single Saint Seiya manga, haha. Saint Seiya Omega manga doesn't adapt the whole story, but only a small part of it. So unless you are a fan of the anime, or want to check it out out of curiosity, or both, then I think it's totally fine to skip it. ;D

Oh, Reddit is generally a toxic place. But I think it is the simplest way to stay up to date on news because I do not go out of my way to read official websites, etc. I only basically use MAL and Reddit, which is fine most of the time. But since SSND ended in July, I have been looking for news everywhere lol. You know, most of us have been stuck with this manga for at least ten years; even though the releases were not frequent, I now have a void until the next manga is released.
Yes, I concur it's hard to find a place on Reddit that is not a toxic echo chamber. But it's possible. My friend has been using this site for years and knows what to do and what to avoid. As for me, I only lurk it when I'm looking for an info. It's good as a source of information if you filter out toxic rants, baseless rumors or shitposting, lol.

You know, most of us have been stuck with this manga for at least ten years; even though the releases were not frequent, I now have a void until the next manga is released.
I've been thinking about it recently. About how different I was when I started reading that manga and how the whole world has changes since then; also, how many Saint Seiya fans could have not lived long enough to see the ND's finale.

I am actually feeling the same about DBS manga. I was genuinely enjoying it.
DBS manga is alright. It has its cons, but I really enjoyed reading it and anticipating each next chapter. Hopefully it will return soon. I feel there is still enough space to tell a nice story before the End of Z time. :P

What do you think of DB Daima? For me, it is beginning to feel a lot like a canon DBGT, but in a good way because I really enjoyed DBGT. One of the few people who did.
So far, I've been enjoying Daima a lot. An awesome way to mix the original Dragon Ball anime's adventure and lightheartedness with flashy action known from Dragon Ball Z. It also feels for me like an attempt to make something like GT, just not happening after the final chapter of the manga but earlier, before Beerus' arrival and all. I treat it also as a somewhat love letter from Toriyama-sensei to all fans of his work. It's the last work he actively worked on before his death.

By the way, I also enjoyed DBGT. :D It had a different vibe than DB and DBZ, a unique atmosphere all its own. Which was totally understandable. It was a different anime series, after all. And like everything, it had its share of cons, but it also had many good elements (SSj4 transformation design, lore peculiarities, references, and arguably the nicest way to make a definite ending to the whole series). It was not half as bad as stereotypical GT haters have claimed it to be over all those years.

Interesting take 🧐 What if...? Look what this series is doing to us, lol but seriously, if you get it right, great logic there.
Hopium hahaha
I hope it will really be Tenkai-hen.
Ehh after reading about the poll in Weekly Shounen Champion regarding what kind of the next Saint Seiya manga should be, my hopes went down a bit. It seems nothing is really certain as of today, I mean 14 November 2024. I hope the sequel manga option will win, lol.

Haha, no worries. I should be the one apologising for making you my Saint Seiya news informant xD Thanks for sharing the info, though.
You're welcome!

Btw, who is your favourite and least favourite gold saint?
My favorite Gold Saint... Hmm... Hard to tell, haha. In general I like all Goldies. Every single Gold Saint has something to offer and is unique in their own way. But if I were to pick one, then it'd be Aquarius Camus, I think. I like his character design, the way he was portrayed and how the whole dynamics between him as a master and Hyouga as his student looked like in the series. His final attack from the Sanctuary arc is also one of my favorite moment from the whole series.
As for the least favorite, Cancer Deathmask. He's not chivalry at all and his performance was really bad during the Hades arc, lmao.

This time, I will try not watch a 30-minute video in a language I don't understand when subtitles are available 🙃🙃
I will reply in a separate comment. :)
