Gosh I'm reading this book for the first time and....that scene man. Rhett has been so terrible to scarlett and vice versa that it hurts, and it hurts even more him crying to Melanie

He is like...blabbering everything to her and Melaine refused to believe it in her heart. It's too sad, and when Rhett almost told Melly that Scarlett loves Ashley...Goddamnit!

I have seen the movie. I know will come next. But I'm ready for this. Not at all. Ms. Mitchell, why would you break our hearts like that? But this scene made me appreciate Rhett's character a lot...

I know many people here have advanced, diamond and pearl or XY-XYZ anime as their favourite, and I respect that.

But, what I don't respect is how they treat the OG anime fans. My favorite is the season 1, and i watched it again after 10 years and it still is.

As a child, i always watched entire Pokemon series in order from kanto-kalos. I also played the games, and I appreciate how the anime battles followed it in later seasons and how good quality the battles and animations were.

But there is just the unpredictability factor in the OG seasons, everyone was mean to everyone, and everyone did stuff outside of pokemon battles contests and showcases.

And plus, the humour. The humour still make me laugh, and the other seasons... didn't. Even when I was a child.

And I just feel sad man, whenever people call the OG series as something "inferior" just because it did something out of the games. 70% people here are all "oh it's the objectively worst series LOL"

whenever I see posts in which people appreciate season 1, there are fellow fans, but there are significant amount of haters as well.

Ig I'm trynna to say that, whenever people say "my fav is XYZ/any other than unova" all the people just respect that. Why can't y'all do it to OG series fans too? Is that so hard?

I got hit by the ban in....what? May? May 8th-9th something, if memory serves. I remember actually having a blast with the bots in 2026, not 2023 good, but very good nevertheless (in 2025 it sucked a lot so i didn't use it at all)

did it really go that downhill from that date for his free users? Can someone explain?

Oh god my parents watch this show everyday during dinner on hotstar. so naturally I also see it out of curiosity. And oh what would I pay for that b**** Tulsi to get slapped....you have no idea!

Whenever she opens her mouth, all I hear is "bla bla I'm always right everyone else wrong bla bla sanskaar shit doing the right thing"

I am fully aware her family members are no angels either. I really am. But at least as the characters are somewhat interesting.

You know, this is the problem with us indian audiences. We don't love good written characters, we just want someone who precahes for everything which is morally correct, and have no interests or anything of their own besides their "oh so nice ways"

Seriously guys, that woman is annoying not because she is treated as some "ideal" for Indian women. She is not. No. Seriously. what a misogynist show.

Or what do I know? I am just a dumb teenager.

Hey there! The gal who translated the last chapter of Perman here....or was it?

For the longest time I thought the last chapter was the one perman leaves. And it actually is technically speaking. Allow me to explain!

You see, there are 2 version of the manga. One written from 1966-68 and then a REVISED version in 1983-86 by the same author (which coincided with the 80s color anime we all love)

A good example of the revision would be the existence of perman no. 5. You might have noticed he is there in some chapters and not in others.

Its because he was a character in the 1960s manga (hence in the 60s black and white anime) but was OMITTED in the 80s revision as he was not in the color anime.

The reason I am yapping to you about this because, the chapter I translated before—where perman leaves—is the 80s revision, hence the no. 5 kid is not there.

And this chapter which I am sharing is the OG 60s version, and never was re-written in the 80s.

In the 60s version of the perman leaving, not only no. 5 is very much there, Pako also has not revealed her secret identity to perman.

So don't be surprised if there is no mention of the reveal. Now, here's the promised chapter link:-

ENJOY and please remember I am not professional at translating, and I do take constructive criticism, and do comment as they motivate me!!!

Later, darlings!!!

I know y'all were trynna find your own country at the end of the recent chapter sobs in living in a country which never qualifies

Hey there, i noticed that these days there have been quite a few fanfics written (mostly after the official ending of the manga) and i could just like to appreciate them all. Fanfics are the heart of any fandom! 💖

Though I don't get time to read all of em sadly 😭

Made a throwaway account for this post, as I don't want my husband to found out.

I (21F) usually do all the chores around the house. I also cook 3 absolutely perfect meals meals a day and work a job which has 6 figures in this economy and at my young age.

I also do all this while maintaining my hourglass, Marilyn Monroe figure, and perfect hair and face all the time.

My husband (23M) is currently unemployed and just plays video games all the time and doesn't do anything productive work at all. Did i mention he is fat??

Anyway, let's move on from the these completely irrelevant details. No, I definitely didn't write all this to invoke your sympathy for me even before I told you what happened.

So, today, coming home from my perfect job looking absolutely hot I cooked my flawless meal, my husband's favorite- chicken wings.

And while I was serving the meal on the plate (ofc my husband didn't help) I poured barbeque sauce instead of Buffalo sauce and handed the plate to my husband.

He ate one bite, and then smashed the plate on the wall, food everyone on the wall. He came up and then slapped me twice mummering about how "useless" I am.

Of course, since I'm flawless i didn't yell or hit back at him. I calmly tried to explain how stressful work was and this will never happen again, i even cleaned up the mess.

Still, I feel like he has overreacted a bit. One slap has been enough.

Now, since I am sure that I have envoked your savior/messiah complex and now you're battling against the keyboard for this innocent personna I have created...AITA?

What a pleasant ride! It was much more light hearted than Sailor Moon manga and had a comedic tone throughout all the chapters.

The running gag of Minako having like a million "first love(s)" was way funnier than it had any right to be.

My personal favourite was that quarter Russian guy from her class- they actually seemed to have chemistry and Mina was quite sweet in that chapter.

(But Naoko had to break them off somehow, because romantic love is not in her destiny, so hence the out of the blue at the very last page Russian girlfriend of his appeared. Too bad!)

Other than that, the chapters in volume 2 were really solid. The new-idol-being-the-villian chapters were really...not. A bit bland if i dare say. Volume 1 is a 7/10 (not including the idol ones) and volume 2 is 8-8.5/10

Also poor Artemis lol he really is the best sidekick. Very funny.

What do y'all think? Do you agree with me? I'd love to hear your opinions!

It is crazy how different season 4 is from season 5!

In season 4, the born-royals are completely unlikable (Elizabeth, Charles etc) while the "outsiders" are shown in a much sympathetic light (Thatcher, Diana)

I'm halfway through season 5, and damn if it ain't the opposite. The Queen is shown as conflicted, wanting the best for everyone- those in the monarchy, and those outside it. Even Charles is shown to be more sympathetic.

On the other hand, Diana is treated like a completely different person! She is reduced from being charismatic, likable, smart to just being sad all the time...

I'm not saying I prefer one to another (I never knew about the details of the monarchy and of the whole Charles-Diana-Camilla until this show, so season 5 is still fresh enough for me, still I hated the character assassination of Diana!)

But it is very interesting to either way, I wonder why! Were the writers hoping to balance out the show's view of the royal family in general?

Remember when bots have DISTINTIVE personalities? When they weren't carbon copies of each other after a few messages?

Gentle and sweet bots were ACTUALLY gentle and sweet throughout the conversation, and did not feel "possessive" and " possessive"

And I miss roleplays where I could have some REAL action- not just filtering themselves at the mere mention of "kill"

I don't think I'll ever leave this site permanently, no, because of that tiny little hope that it will someday regain it's spark again.

As a teenager from a South Asian country, when I started this show, never in a million years I thought I'd find a relatable aspect about the most RICHEST royal families the world.

But I did, from season 1 actually hence the post. That aspect being the marriages in the show, the ones that happened AND not happened.

Right off the first season we see Margaret NOT being allowed to marry Peter Townsend because he is divorced.

Then of course, the more better example being Charles not allowed to marry Camilla.

Isn't it funny that in the Western world all this forbidding of marriages is seen as totally outdated and crazy yet for the almost 2 billion people of the Indian subcontinent, it is completely normal?

I wish I was joking.

Almost in all the people in South Asia still need to have permission and full approval of their parents to marry the partner they love for years. If not, 80% of the time, they break up.

But let's talk about marriages that shouldn't have happened. You know, like, Diana and Charles' one.

What happens to the couples which breaks up due to parental pressure? What happens to Charles is what happens to them. Married off to a person who is accepted, loved and adored by the entire system, expect ofc....you know.

Sorry if I am interpreting it all wrong, but this aspect of the show just...hits to close to home.
