This is why I don't watch anime. The japs are rather pretentious and not very self aware with that message.

>>729141017Regulus is a prime example of why escapism is bad. He fucked up his first marriage so badly that he had to distract himself with collecting virgins so he wouldn't have to consider how everything was actually his own damn fault.

I think what weaboos should understand is Japanese people think within a framework that is jarringly different from any remotely Westernized individual. Their values, priorities, the immense social pressure they are constantly under is alien to you. Unless you want to psyche yourself into being happy to work to death for the sake of total strangers you shouldn’t take any of their advice, even if it was packaged in a video game you enjoyed.
I've only ever seen one game that botched that and it was Tactics Advanced. Marche had zero proof that destroying that crystal meant the Ivalice he was in is fake but he just rolled with it and then deleted an entire world because 'muh escapism'At the end of the day, he's a narcissist that has to be right.

>>729142220Revenge is only bad if you lose yourself and burn those who care about you while achieving it. That's what many of the people who write 'Revenge Bad!!' stuff don't seem to understand.
>Everyone here just wants games to conform to their tastes and preconcieved notions of moralOkay, "free thinker".
>>729143617Depends on the setting/game lore.
Revenge is cool and good for the moralThis is why the states should let the family execute the criminal who took the life of one of their loved beings, it's natural and a legitimate need
>Game's message is 'If you don't belong to anywhere, you might as well become a god'Greedfall if anyone's interested, one of the main themes of the game is 'belonging'

>game's message is that objective evil exists and should be opposed
>>729143669yeah that's the usual retarded response form people who are fine with being stomped on. Yet soon as something bad happens to them they get upset for some reason. Weird.
>>729143752Interesting way of viewing it, but I think I'm past that.

>>729143964Can something be written as Objective if it depends on someone deciding it is Objective if so it makes it Subjective.
>>729143964what if someone disagrees
>>729141017I love when my escapism lectures to me about escapism. Sorry for spending money on your video game you ungrateful fuck.
>>729144029Be a good little goy now. Roll over and take it. Fork over everything you own and don't make a fuss when someone steals from you, hurts you, kills anyone you care for. Just be a good little thrall and do what you're told. And on that point kill yourself now, because I as a government worker for the state have told you do so in the name of justice.

>>729144214Concession accepted.
>>729141734By basically saying "anything you want is meaningful!", you're STILL saying "nothing is actually meaningful". You're liberated from nothing, all you can do is PRETEND that your activity that you do is meaningful, even though you know that behind the curtains, it's as meaningful as staring at that wall.It's why I disagree with the nihilists. If everything was all the same, they'd all kill themselves. The fact that they don't means they know their own bullshit is bullshit, and they believe actual meaning still exists.

>>729141734that phrase is so stupid. in the first part of this sentence, "meaning" refers to telos, but in the second part, it refers to whatever i want to do. so this stupid ideology relies on changing the definition of words in the middle of the sentence.

>>729153776He's arguably less evil than even some of the "good" guys. And even Rem has a bigger Subaru kill count than Regulus.Definitely didn't deserve to go out the way he did, Tappei just has a hate-boner for autistic people.
>>729144030by your own logic, since every proposition has to be interpreted by a human mind, objective truth doesnt exist.
>>729143885I do.
>>729141017it's funny how the author wanted us to hate him so bad, he failed because people hate Subaru more than Regaylus
>>729143904Danganronpa
>>729155237He slaughtered an entire country just because he could, then he murdered the entire family of his childhood crush and forced her to marry him which made her kill herself. Unless you want to argue that doesn't count because it happened a century ago then no, Rem killing Subaru twice is not more. And also both times that Rem killed Subaru it was because of the witch scent and how he kept being suspicious which is much more reasonable than trying killing someone that disagrees with you.
>>729155913When i read his backstory in the light novel it gave me the exact opposite feeling. It was like as if Nagatsuki wanted to redeem him last minute despite him being an asshole the entire time.
>>729155237>The guy who kidnaps women, murders everyone who knew them, and then murders them when he gets mildly irritated is just autistic bro
>NOOO YOU MUST SUFER IN WAGIE CAGIE YOU CANNOT THINK ABOUT ANYTHING ELSEdo devoids really?
>>729156287Actually, Rem killed Subaru once. The other time was Ram.That being said, Regulus' actual, on-screen kill-count is like one person if I remember right one of his wives. My point is that we never SEE him actually do anything outrageously evil, so he just comes off as an autist being bullied.Fucking 1/3rd of Gluttony did more damage to the main cast than Regulus did, he's ridiculously merciful to the heroes in comparison with pretty much everybody else, including the heroes themselves.
>>729144367Nihilism does not posit that nothing means anything, it says that your existence as a sapient organism does not have an inherent purpose. It also says that morality is not real and neither is knowledge (knowing things with absolute certainty). It essentially takes the first step in understanding (I know nothing) and makes the argument that it is also the last. Nothing has inherent meaning, we assign meaning to everything. How could 'meaning', a concept only relevant to humans, be an inherent quality of anything not perceived by man? Does a tree falling in the woods with nobody around to see have meaning? There is a reason it happened, but that is not meaning. The same can be said of yourself. Your parents may have had a reason to create you, but you are now an individual, distinct from them. They cannot assign meaning to you, only to their perceptions of you, which are within themselves and not a part of you. They can affect you and shape your concept of your own purpose, but not directly, only through words and actions.Meaning exists within people's minds, they have to will it to be there. It isn't just there by default or we wouldn't even be talking about this.

>>729143907I will never understand why people think all isekai should have a plot about going back to the original world.>"B-But muh family, muh friends, muh loved ones!"Like being swamped in work didn't already make seeing them almost impossible anyway.
>>729158331"Being a friend" also means being a sycophant who supports all if your friends' narcissistic life choices. Never challenge your friends' perspective, or you're being an asshole.
>>729157639>spoilerHe would've killed her if Emilia didn't save her.>My point is that we never SEE him actually do anything outrageously evilBecause he is a self centered prick that doesn't do evil shit just for the sake of it, but that doesn't mean he's "merciful" or not evil. This "mercifulness" of his only lasts until you tick him off which for his wives is as simple as showing any emotion. He'd kill anyone without remorse just like any other archbishop, his selfish attitude about it doesn't make it any less evil.But if that's your bar for someone being evil then i'll see you next year when the next season comes out and you'll glaze gluttony (besides Roy maybe) the same way.

And this is fine??
>>729141734My favorite version of this message is Death Stranding’s. >Thousands and thousands of years from now, should intelligent life walk the earth and find our fossils, they likely conclude that Homo sapiens died out in the sixth extinction. Perhaps, if we are lucky, they may even find records we leave behind. still, we cannot hope to guess how much they will understand about who we were. After all, their intelligence will not be like ours. Theirs will be a different understanding of the world, of the universe. Different forms of existence, different conceptions of what it is to be alive - these invariably lead to different conceptions of what it is to die. But it matters not if they never understand who we were. All that matters, in my opinion at least, is that they know that we were here. To persist, for its own sake, against the face of literal extinction. That’s what Death Stranding is all about. Literally “The Indomitable Human Spirit: The Game”. In a world drowning in despair, it was a glimmer of light. In my life at the very least

>>729142220I’ll never forgive RDR2 for fucking this up so horribly. Throughout the entire game, you get beaten over the head about how “revenge bad” and “turn the other cheek”. Then at the very end of the game when you’ve learned all your lessons, Sadie tells you “hey, Arthur, let’s go kill a bunch of harmless O’Neills lmao. yeah, i know their leader is dead and the rest are just stragglers running around like headless chickens but lets kill them anyways lmao” and the game gives you low honor for refusing. Like, Rockstar, do you want me to kill people or not? Make up your fucking mind

Is there an "escapism good" game?I've fantasized about having a personal portal to come and go from, that only I have access to, that takes me to an isolated place far out in space that conveniently has oxygen and is hospitable for human life. I'd only come back to Earth for supplies. Otherwise, I'd just stay there where there's no other people.
>>729145180Tanya’s fine. I kinda appreciate just how angsty and whiny it is. Reminds me of middle school

>>729161526Rockstar wants you to kill people they don't like.Lawmen, meanies and racists.
>>729161905I doubt anyone can make a case for it because all cases of escapism how ever minor they begin will eventually sabotage your ability to live, and any minor case of escapism like playing games in a while is too mundane for a story. I would however like to see a story where a fantasy world managed to make someone improve.

>>729146512war or being in a firefight is actually a lot like being in a harem, it sounds great until it happens to you in real life
>>729164258I don't believe in any religion nor god nor higher being, but I truly believe human beings are inherently religious in nature.If it's not one of the culturally established religions, then its either some sense of the esoteric and mystic, or the words of someone else the same way one listens to a priest or religious leader.For an easy example, I think it's fair to say that most atheists would say the universe began with the big bang, but very few of them are able to actually explain what the big bang even is, how it happened, the evidences and theory behind it. To them, it's just a myth of creation like any other.So I don't think it's fair to call religion escapism. It's just an aspect of the human experience.

Petty bourgeois nihilists that preach "finding your own meaning" (wageslaving til' death with dogshit hobbies on the side) deserve death. You're spiritually religious.
>>729167174The human experience is a profoundly spiritual one, only retarded nominalists attempt to live exclusively in a world devoid of spirit.
>>729164663deep down all animals only care about eating, shitting, sleeping, fucking and fighting
>>729162219Those two perspectives aren't mutually exclusive. There could be an intergalactic federation of space-faring species. They may be unable to interfere with us until we prove we are capable of joining them. To them, newly discovered intelligent life wouldn't be very significant; it'd just be another Tuesday.That being said, we can't prove or disprove their existence, and by extension, we can't judge our own significance against the Universe's vast amount of unknowns. What we can do is assign significance to what we perceive in our own lives, and as far as we know, our world and the people in it are all we have. To me at least, that makes it all pretty significant.

People forget a lot of humans got turrned into monsters so these kids can roleplay.No wonder why it ended on a wheelchair , just rotten people.
>>729164680People want to feel safe and secure, and oftentimes, that is expressed as trust in something seen as less fallible than themselves. By having faith, people feel more comfortable with unknowns, such as the health and safety of loved ones, or life after death.This isn't exclusive to religion either. In government, people feel more secure when their rights are explicitly defined in writing. This was a major contention in the ratification of the U.S. Constitution. It was intended that the U.S. Govt. would only have the powers defined in the document, but many wanted a Bill of Rights that expressly stated the rights of individuals. This isn't foolproof, however. Your leaders may betray your freedoms, much like how people may sin or defy their god, but the paper itself won't go back on it's word.

>>729151665absolute joke of a character, a librarian that really loves books, wooow, and it's so unbelievable too, nobody just "likes books" surely there are preferences for what one enjoys reading, but in Myne's case nope, she just heckin' loves books! it's almost like someone saying>I heckin' love vidya! I would love to play vidya!and then you ask, okay but what do you like? platformers? first person shooters? strategy games?>I HECKIN' LOVE VIDYA, oohhh I could really go for some vidya right now!puzzle games?>MAN IF ONLY I COULD PLAY SOME VIDYAracing?>I WOULD LOVE TO PLAY VIDYAit's basically Myne's personality but with books, such a garbage written character, and it comes with all the typical isekai tropes as well with her making some shitty ribbon that's valued at 10 gorrillion dollars with every lady in the city wanting to wear one, if anyone says this piece of shit is above average I instantly consider them as low IQ
>>729141017This shit made me look at p5, which I've already viewed as the weakest of the modern persona games and just completely hate it following the royal version. The fact that the characters can not see the irony and the hypocrisy of choosing on behalf of others of taking away their opportunity to exist in a world where they could be the best version of themselves just like how Maruki chose on behalf of others to make them live in such a world just pissed me off. The "its escapism dont you see?" narrative is a subplot for midwits who simply have not experienced enough of life's struggles to realize that there is an unfortunately a very real and very uncomfortable place in the middle of that discussion.I hope the writers never experience what it feels like to live with chronic pain, I hope they never experience the death of a loved one far too soon, I hope they never feel the experience of feeling trapped in an existence with a genuine lack of opportunity to make their lives better. There's no "pulling yourself from your bootstraps" from something like rheumatoid arthritis.

>>729151665>all 33 volumesThe first two parts before she goes to school are so vastly superior in every aspect it's not funny anymore.
>>729148857To better explain it. Life has no inherit "goal". Your father's death did not have a "purpose", for you or him, it just happened. Your emotional reaction to it also didn't have a "purpose" towards your life's "goal".Life does not lead you anywhere. It is a mix of your own choices and circumstances that have landed you where you are today. Recognizing that the world (or universe/reality) will continue to act regardless of your choice, wishes, and ideas leads to a liberating conclusion.You are the architect of your own meaning, or "goal". Since reality does not care about you and your wishes it is your prerogative to see your wishes come true. In that way you create your own personal meaning, which can be as broad or specific as you desire or find it.On the note of your emotions. This discussion of meaning is irrelevant to feeling. Meaning and feeling are very different things. We could talk about meaning until the cows go home but we still feel hunger, thirst, and emotion (a broad category). That is part of our reality as humans. We cannot stop it as much as we cannot stop gravity or causality. Our own perceived meaning informs our emotions and thus gives meaning to them.

>>729189242Just shows how different Mushoku Tensei is from all the other slop since in 99.999 of other anime/manga/ln works ED would be just played off as a joke or the protagonist would be just a generic chad since the insecure loser virgin readers won't be able to self insert otherwise.

>>729189771Try achieving things of your own, then you won't have to cope by seeking your source of pride in an arbitrary group you believe yourself to belong to. Has the bonus effect that you will no longer feel personally attacked when that group is mentioned negatively.
>>729189928did you miss the part where his father also had two wives
>>729189935Grimgar sucks because there is zero relevant story progression after a while, not because of the realistic aspects which become less and less relevant with every volume.
>>729142882What if I choose to rape Aqua indian style?
>>729189935Grimgar sucked because it was just a music commercial for Sony. Also the source material was just sufferporn rather than trying to be a good story.
>>729141734>sima yi>life is fleetingkek.
>>729189928I have completed the Light Novel and Mushoku Tensei takes a sharp nose dive when Rudeus marries Roxy, ironically the volume where they save his mother is the peak of the series. The harem is just one problem of many. Suddenly there are a lot of important characters concentrated in a place and tons of children appear and nothing is given the time it deserves, all the wives are not really that important anymore after Eris joins the harem. The LN is not complete shit after that and still has its moments but the quality never recovers.
>>729141668Have you tried a harem?
>>729144367It's just the nihilists cope to feel fine with being a permanent child and never actually trying to better his home or take risks, face danger, because there won't be judgement, which is what he fears for cowardice, and his cowardice has him fear failure. It's a crutch.
>>729141668YO BUDDHA, LONG TIME NO SEE!

>>729190671yeah and the situation got resolved within 3 sentencesit's not a stretch especially considering he, and his whole family on father side, are all complete degenerates
>>729191278But that's the pointEven that elf slut got married lmao
>>729146064can i capture the objective?
What I find amusing is the>Escapism is bad, and don't you see if you stop escaping you'll be given a fairytale idealistic ending?It's like taking you one cave higher from plato's shadow puppets and suggesting this cave is the freed cave. Like anything, excess will be bad. But I am always suspicious of the anti-escapists as they aren't discrete with their targeting. It's encapsulated for me in this miserable little faggot. A literary critic which says it all, but https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edmund_Wilson one who hated on figures like Lovecraft and Tolkien but whom is utterly forgotten today for all the pretentious navel-gazing high-brow self righteousness served him. Same as the other gremlins who tried to throw stones at Tolkien or Lewis or otehrs like them.He's the equivalent of your 2deep4u depression-metaphor game writers (or the last of us druckman) who seethe at competitors who bring more happiness and good to the world than their inane faggotry does. I hate capeshit, I really fucking detest it, but I still will accept that it's juvenile escapism brings more light to more lives than yet another pseudointellectual gobbledygook story that gets high off its own farts.They deride anything that isn't political as opiate of the masses, then I look at what they or their kind achieves and it's not a surgeon operating without opium to save you, it's a fucking schizophrenic quack torturing you 'for your own good'.
>>729146204Maybe he'd still like games if he didn't play such trash.

>>729191548Samefag, just ran out of space. The real essential question I Just want to ask is>Did this make someone(s) lives better?>Did this make more lives worse than it made better?If escapism can make your life better and you don't end up suffering later for it then it's fine. And "If you stop escaping you'll be happy with a wife and 2.5 kids and everything'll work out buddy" is escapist idealism too. Your imagination is more intimate to you than any other person will be. It was with you as soon as you were more than an animalistic baby, it will be with you until you are brain dead. Versus the passing backseat driving judgment of some cocksucker who will judge you whatever you do - and if by god you succeed guess what? They'll envy you and want to tear you down! Only care what those who will actually have your back think. And love and cherish your imagination. Just don't get drunk on it. >>729143058A lot of social media are bots. >>729169906RIght. The issue wasn't the escapism, it was the torture that others experienced for that escape. Rob peter to pay paul.

>>729185494>the show being trash is the filterWoah...
>game's message is escapism good
>>729141196>Played by random dude in Brazilian favella
>>729192281yet you've only mentioned the MC filter. Curious!
>>7291899283, with an option for fourth and fifth, but being the gentlemen he is he declined banana and catgirl.
>>729192289maelle is 100% going to end like Ange
I think everything in life is meaningless so you give meanings to whatever you like or prefer and pursue whatever goal you think is important for you or the people you love. Is this nihilism or what
>>729141196this will always be kino i don't care what anyone says
>>729141734The problem is when people take this seriously. You see why people are so shitty, screaming the F-word every 5 seconds. Or making a worse society with crime and hate. They think that ruining the life of other people has no consequences because "life is meaningless"
>>729191086>just because I hate you doesn't mean you should hate yourselflmao u fukken got him good
>>729192983>racism means hateDumb leftist.
>>729192941>"life is meaningless">that means I should have no morals and treat others badlyanon how the fuck do you draw this conclusion from that?Life is meaningless, do whatever you want with it, that doesn't mean people want to do the things you are saying, if they truly thought that then they wouldn't do those things.you just don't understand what it means and are looking to blame others.
>>729166296That a great plot. Living in a comatose state by years is worst that living inside of the VR world. >>729164680>human beings are inherently religious in nature.No, MALE humans are religious. but no women, No woman in the world has made a religion, because women always reject the idea of a higher being.You see the trope of "churches always the villains in JRPGs" because most JRPGs has female protagonists, where a heroic woman see male priests and religious figures as evil.
>>729141734What does being liberated to create your own meaning entail exactly? I can do whatever I want to survive? Doesn't everyone do that?
>>729145519because every fiction is a monadic truth
>>729189724>>729189771Indian janny moment.
>>729194486I can only imagine how much this made you seethe.
>>729141734>>729142217this isn't nihilism, this is absurdismalso god isn't real
>>729194764>tell yourself a comfortable lie>someone calls it out>cry about it-9999 izzat
>>729194916
>>729142101Eat black pussy bro and love it
>>729142805*rapes you*
>>729192289This is well beyond just "escapism good" and all the way into outright subjective reality.
>>729164680The word you want to use here is "spirituality" and you are not wrong. It is already all inside of our head such as anthromorphization and pareidolia. It was and still is a useful evolutionary mechanism.
>>729141017Persona 3>life is short, enjoy it>hundred hour rpg I kneel
>he would rather fantasize about fantasy worlds instead of making his boss more moneyImmature really
>>729142000Too much of anything is bad
>>729159628>stop existing the wrong way
>>729189928It's okay, it's permitted under Allah.
>>729158331can you stop being an anti-semite... FOR 5 SECONDS
>>729146405>subhumans incapable of thinking for themselvesThat´s all women anon.
>>729143904Digimon Adventure.
>>729201529yet another faggot that misunderstood kizuna.the entire point was to avoid turning your back on your child self to "settle" in life. taichi was doing just that so he got fucked
>>729164663most group activities that men are expected to take part in are shitif you don't have a solitary hobby by your 20s you failed the manhood test
>>729156508>kidnaps women, murders everyone who knew them, and then murders them when he gets mildly irritated is just autistic brothat's a good thing, women love this kind of shit.it's so obvious that a man wrote this, read romance novels
>>729192289>W-WHY DO YOU WANT TO KNOW HOW AND WHY YOUR FAMILY DIED>YOU NEED MORE LOVE, IF YOU HAD LOVE YOU WOULDN'T CARE ABOUT YOUR FAMILY'S TRAGIC DEMISE!!Bravo, R07
>>729143904Fate
>>729141017>just accept being a crippleunironically put it on the same level as battle wheelchair in dnd
>>729164680Good catch. You are correct, This is a known concept that is thought to be inherent and necessary for large civilizations. Aliens would also be religious.
>>729142220Revenge is bad in the sense that there's never going to be a peaceful resolution to the conflict. you will die fighting and lose everything you've worked towards until that point. if you've got nothing left then yeah burn that shit down but otherwise it's entirely self destructive
>>729151749>total dogshit the series
>>729207052Specifically Muslim.
>You enjoyed killing all those people in the FPS I marketed as a good time?>You're a terrible person
>>729197489I understand how anthropomorphisation and pareidolia relate to modern religions but spiritually always seems conceptually vague to me. Is it related to ritualistic practice? A recurring state of mind?I know of practitioners who follow their creed and their religion's rituals yet do so out of cultural and social needs rather than devout faith, so it can't be intrinsically linked to that.Likewise many 'feel' something when in deep prayer, but others do not. And these conscious states aren't exclusive to religious practices, although I guess that goes hand in hand with spirituality not being bound to organised religion
>>729143340>Games message is 'women can't be equal'I'm going to make the argument that this is probably the most common message in video games. They have worse strength growth and entirely different classes and romance options instead of the normal social interactions.
>>729141196Unashamedly kino, fuck modern doom culture
>>729158331John 15:13
>>729194906God is real youre a simpleton and use the guise of intellectualism
>>729164025nothing ever happens the animation, I want 8 and a half hours of my life back
>Thread has been up for what feels like two days >But it hasn't Good lord. This thread is taking forever to die. Either people are replying very slowly, but just slowly enough that it stretches out how long the thread stays up.
>>729208849They're always so angry as they proclaim their lack of faith.
>>729208849>>729209713if god is real then he is a dickhead who put us in a world with evil, fuck him
>>729209885nta but sometimes god has a real sense of humor so he'll give someone progeria just for shits and giggles
>>729141017You know what the problem with Regulus is? He doesn't pose a sexual threat. They should've really leaned into the NTR thing, make him a cool, smooth operator. Have his wives love-bomb Emilia, they serve him willingly and keep saying shit like "The sex is amazing, you can't believe how good it is." Then that way, Subaru has to hustle before Emilia (who has the mind of a 14-year-old) crumbles beneath pressure and start taking Reggie's dick.As it is, Reggie can't even fuck. What kind of guy with a harem can't even fuck? It makes him completely toothless.
>>729210460>What kind of guy with a harem can't even fuck?An average Japanese harem protagonist
>>729210565Actually, yeah you're 100% correct. You got me there.
>>729189928You don't get it. It's supposed to encourage japanese men to take on multiple wives and repopulate the country.
>>729164025S;G is retarded garbage.
>>729141668Bittercel cope
>>729211713I never got the appeal of it either, I think that people just like time travel and harem setups no matter how shallow they are.
>>729210460>Why doesn't Regulus just dick his wives?There are 2 potential answers. One is that Regulus is so nutty that he treasures maiden virginity over his own sexual satisfaction. The other is that depending on your interpretation, he can only hide his heart inside virgin girls.
>>729146204>names three lumps of shit>I was playing games to escape, you see
>>729161941I've watched the anime and it's the most repetitive slog ever. Idk most episodes kinda just blurred together, but for the most part it's>country attacks uber germanium>Tania and her useless goons are sent to deal with it somehow>Tania destroys them>"Wow Tania you're so strong and brave and even though you act evil you're actually nice :)">God shows up>"SO HOW DO YOU LIKE YOUR NEW LIFE BLOODY BITCH CUNT NOW IF YOU WANT SUPER POWERS YOU GOTTA GIVE ME A BLOWJOB DIE">rince and repeat
>>729143752>If you don't belong to anywhere, you might as well become a godThat's exactly what happened with my dream creation when my mom and brother began treating me like a caged animal instead of a human being that's been severely traumatized. They neglected me when I needed them most, and the pain of being kept isolated from everyone else for over a decade had only made me stronger and stronger. But at some point, I realized that the darkness was part of me, and upon accepting it into me, I grew far more powerful than my entire family could ever hope to be. I became incredibly redpilled to the point that even the government had started to attack me with directed energy weapons. My family, normies, and NPCs are fearful of me, they can no longer comprehend my chaotic nature, and they always attack me whenever I show them the true nature of the false reality that we live in (their entire life was a lie).Picrel is the dark god version of me, sealed away in a pocket dimension. He's not an evil entity, but rather a punished godform that can obliterate an entire universe if he chooses to do so.
>>729146204uh ackchyually I play video games to improve my language skills. now shit like 鎧, 敏捷, 鎖帷子, 槍, 詠唱, etc. is firmly etched in my mind
>>729173442you tell yourself this so you can indulge in whatever you want, but it's a cope
>>729144385yeah, re:zero is shit anime and waste of time
>JUST LET ME PAINT!!!!!
>games message is "it is fine living with your illusion you don't need the truth."
