It's astonishing how much this show was ahead of it's time. I watch it again every couple of years and man. From the 4 main characters, to the antagonist, to the side characters, to the One offs, almost every character in this show is good. How? Togashi was a genius man. I wish we got more than 100 episodes, it's crazy it ended 3 decades ago. Well, we got some more Ova in 2018, but still. Give us one more season man, just one more Lmao.

Makes me wonder if she'd keep the same conviction if she knew she was one of the targets of the contract. I legit felt bad. I used a Frenzy spell to make everyone else kill each other, but Ocheeva likes you so much she won't even attack you with Frenzy on. You have to take her out the old fashion way no matter what since she won't get angry enough to attack you. Sad stuff, even for a Murderer. The oblivion DB storyline is one for the history books. You're actually evil in this game's DB storyline. Like actually evil.

While trying to blast the Count with a custom spell that includes all 3 elements+Damage Health i missed him and hit the barrel. I noticed the Barrel itself caught on fire. After all these years, I never knew you could actually set objects on fire. Now this doesn't really do anything in the grand scheme of things, but still looks cool.

Replying the Dark Brotherhood questline, and I lowkey feel bad. They even cry "Why brother why" when you kill them Lmao.

It has nothing to do with "Wanting to manipulate any inexperienced girls" or "Having no choice" but to go for the better looking, younger women, it has to do with the fact that:

A) They look better than you. While there are some exceptions, generally speaking the chicks with no Wrinkles and no aging signs on their faces and bodies look better than the ones that do.

B) They have less experience, less trauma, less bodies, and less promiscuous behavior due to being younger. Generally speaking, there are chicks who begin being promiscuous at very young ages, but she would still have less bodies than an older chick who's been doing the same behaviors for longer

C) They've been through less abortions or none at all

D) Arguably the most important one for me, they produce healthier babies. The closer a woman is to Menopause age the higher chance their child comes out with something seriously wrong with them. You're risking dooming for future bloodline by trying to reproduce with an older woman past her prime, especially when whatever type of chick you like, there's a younger, healthier version of her somewhere in the world that you can find.

I've noticed on the internet, especially Reddit, women have begin lying and acting like men prefer younger women for other reasons other than the 4 obvious points above that they always try to ignore. Well it's time to give some pushback. Whenever you see one of these chicks imply younger chicks are "Easier" to get (They aren't, younger chicks know they are in their Prime and take full advantage of it) and that's why men go for them Politely remind them that it has nothing to do with that, but it has everything to do with the 4 points mentioned above. Older chicks hate acknowledging this because it requires acknowledging that they cannot reverse the clock unless they are ageless which 99.999% of women are not, and if they are still single at older ages they have to acknowledge everyday that they can no longer compete with younger versions of themselves. They don't like doing this out loud, especially on the internet. So lets help them with it.

With Borderlines especially i've noticed that when you first meet them, they will say some totally off the wall shit. So off the wall you dismiss them as joking, especially when they smile while telling you. It seems funny. It seems like a joke. It doesn't seem real.

Then later on when you find out they were being serious, you see they told you this early on to test you to see if you will stay. I'll give an example. The first borderline I ever dated told me a story about how her and her sister stole somebody's cat when they were in a different state, took her home and claimed the cat as their own. Even renamed her and everything. I didn't think too much of it because I thought she was joking, but she wasn't. Surprisingly the cat is still alive to this day as this was way back in 2012, a year before I started dating this chick.

Always pay attnetion to the wacky shit they tell you. It's a test. It's a warning. They usually let you know how they really are very early on as soon as you meet them. Not too long after this she said directly that she doesn't care how other people feel, nor does she consider their feelings when she makes certain decisions. Like stealing someone's cat.

This is also a major reason I advise people to just leave early on. It doesn't get "better" from here. If you hear what they tell you and you still move forward, maybe because you don't really know what borderline is (I didn't) or because it seems like they are joking (They aren't), you've essentially given them the green light to continue and get exponentially worse as time goes on.

He didn't even need to do any preparations like the Dragonborn had to and from my understanding he has no innate resistance to blindness, nor any Moth training to read/rewrite the scrolls.

How do you even rewrite an elder scroll?

How did he know which one to rewrite?

These are questions I still have 20 years later that never got explained.

Watch it in Japanese, the episode where Kuwabara takes on the cat guy's goons. Hiei starts off by saying something along the lines of "Ho, you aren't just a big dummy?" after Kuwabara shapes his Reiki into a sword, and gains full respect for him after he wins the fight without backing down. Showing he's not just dead weight.

Now Granted, Hiei being Hiei won't ever admit he likes anybody, but at several points in the fight Hiei was ready to jump in and save his life. I think this is the moment they begin to like each other as friends and companions even if neither would ever say it out loud.

Because I don't know how the hell I ever did it as a teenager. Until the temperature drops back below 80 degrees I'm doing full treadmill this summer Lmao. But those of you who survive training in this heat wave will become monsters by the time indoor starts.

You join the game because you like tanks in real life and want to shoot tanks in a video game. Shortly after you join, maybe 2,000 battles in you get introduced to Stats. Most regular players do not care and never will care about Stats, but a few of us decided to taste the golden tea and get to the highest levels of this game to see what the big deal is. You grind and you grind, you Improve. Yellow to Green. Green to Blue (Teal didn't exist back then when I started this grind) Blue to tier 8 Purple. Tier 8 purple to tier 10 purple. Tier 10 Purple to Super Uni. Some would consider "4K purple" to be another tier, I never got that far.

You finally do it. You get your purple stats. You join a top 5 clan. You see what the big deal is....... back then it was nice. Gold every week, active unicums to play with. The first reward tank at the time, the M60, came out. Most of us didn't play it. We just got it just to get it. Back then if you were in a top clan and did 10 battles during the campaign, you got the tank. Easy.

But then the flip side the top 1% doesn't tell Pubbies about: Drama. When you don't know what stats are there is no drama cause regular players get on, shoot a few tanks, go back to sleep, then work in the morning. But the top 1%? IE the Blues and Purples that make up comp clans? A few of them have Jobs and lives, a lot of them don't. When you don't have a life, you have all the time in the world to engage in "World of tanks Drama"-Haglar. This is not an exaggeration. On the Forums you had a section called "Clan Rivalry and Diplomacy" where players of top clans would spend more time hyping on drama on the forums than actually playing the game. This eventually caused a war known as "Operation Purple Dawn" on the NA server. I know......a video game war. Crazy right?

That war ends. The Burning Legion dies. My clan _Bad eventually disbands. I quit the game for a little while. I come back in like, 2015. Time to find another clan. I didn't really want to do clan wars anymore but any clan above the 2K Wn8 level required comp. So I sucked it up. The same thing different clan. Bored basement dwellers with no lives, causing drama over any little thing, most of the time not even playing the actual game. Eventually you get to the point where you're like "Damn. I temporarily went into the basement, to finally get to the top 1% of the game, and I'm having less fun than ever because all the best players are bored little kids who cause fights over nothing because they are bored? I'm out"

So you leave. When you are a yellow player? You are invisible. Nobody notices you. Nobody cares. You're just another ant walking around in the Soil. But if you have Good overalls now? All the basement dwellers notice you. "You're only Blue, you're trash. You're only light purple, you're trash. You only have 3K recents you're trash". You realize something else. That no matter how good you actually get in the game, because the basement dwellers need a constant supply of Drama, they will still find a way to attack you. The clan I just left 2 people were clowning my tier 11 recents when I have more 2 marked 11s than both of these players combined. (Literally) But this is how it goes. Even when you are better than the basement dwellers, so long as you aren't totally average or worse? You get noticed, and pulled into the drama. Unless you block them all. Which I usually do.

I see posts that always ask "Why does nobody ever want to get better". I've played this game on and off since 2012. With the last time I quit intending to be my final run. Deleted my old account in the process. But unfortunately there's no other tank game like this. So I returned. Under the account I play now. But here's the thing that never changed: You get better at the game. What's your reward? You go from being in average clans where people have Jobs and lives outside of the game. To now hanging out with basement dwellers who spend more time causing drama than actually playing the game. Who wants that as a reward? Especially in 2026 where you dont even get gold for being in a top clan anymore.

The basement dwellers say "You only have a 2500 overall on a new account, you're bad. Get to 4K". And to them I say, "No thanks". I'm content at this level for I know, from experience, the only thing that awaits you from climbing to the highest skill levels of this game are basement dwellers who only make the game less fun for you.

This post will probably get negged to Oblivion. But I wanted to offer a different perspective from someone who was Average, got better, Joined Unicum clans, and now have absolutely 0 incentive to return to the basement because there's more fun in the game being "Average", but having 0 drama while you're shooting tanks. When you wonder why nobody wants to get better? This is one of the reasons why. Even the people who have never been in top clans personally, they see how the basement dwellers act on both this Sub, discord, and in the game and say "No thanks". "I never want to be like these people, I'll stick to being "Bad".

I met 2 people who I suspected have BPD, and I intend to cut contact with them probably this week, but it's insane how fast they can go from being friendly to you to being INSTANTLY Hostile. And you'll never know the true reason why since they won't ever tell you. 1 of the two started getting hostile towards me after I told her I was working and she said "I don't want to bother you". Now we all text people while working, or maybe not all, but i'm sure a lot of us do. It's Normal. I told her there's no bother and she got hostile to me, Just like that. Her energy never returned to normal Since Lmao.

But we all know with BPD this wasn't what caused the problem, the "Trigger" happened long before this interaction. The other one I don't have a scenerio where the energy changed. Seems like it came out of nowhere, but we know it's never out of "Nowhere". Once they've invented a scenerio in their head that enrages them the Idealization phase ends, and you begin the hostility phase.

The mistake most people make is that they stick around trying to make things better. I think I got enough proof I need from these two, I'm out Lmao. Wanted to share this because when you accidently meet new borderlines it never takes long for them to reveal what they actually have. Since they all seem to be following the same exact script. Idealize-Invent a Scenerio in their heads- Turn hostile- Never tell you why they've become hostile.
