I wanted to share something?

What do you feel when you see this image? Do you feel a vacuum in your stomach? Do you find it hard ti breath? Do you want to cry and laugh seeing it? I do.

I have something to share: My top 5 series: AOT>(CSM:Reze movie, but not series)>Evangelion=Kaguya Sama>One Piece>Vinland Saga=Edgerunners=Devilman CrybabyΒ 

My top 5 overall:

  1. AoT (Reze movie)
  2. I Want To Eat Your PancreasΒ 
  3. 5 Centimetres per SecondΒ 
  4. The Garden of Words
  5. Your Name/Weathering with You

Here, you can see, in the series, there is literally no serious influenced by nostalgia. But when it comes to overall, there are 4 ranks in top 5 taken by movies, with nostalgic visuals and audio. Will this count as nostalgia factor?

Whenever I remember these movies, I get happy and sad, and sometimes goosebumps. The feeling I get remembering my childhood memoriesβ€” I got that same feeling about 5 Centimetres per Second and other Shinkai movies, just after finishing them. Is this nostalgia? I have a strong preference for environmental emotionalism in anime, and if an anime can do that effectively, it can crack any well written or well animated (like JJK or Demon Slayer or Modern One Piece) in my ranking. I think it is emotional connection. I have been drawing ever since I was 4 years old, and anime-painting-style have been a source of melancholy for over a decade (I'm only 16 now). These drawings, the skies in Shinkai movies, the grey of concrete, the yellow of sunrise and sunset, the sound of the nature... These things when captured perfectly in an anime (not live action, I've never gotten emotional just by seeing a live action show/movie scenery), are a treat for me. I can't express it in words.

But why did I chose this specific photo? Other Shinkai movies have better visuals than this? Right? Because it has THAT type of environmental emotionalism that I once saw in my favourites, like Doraemon or other Japanese shows. I'm only 16. Barely anything to worry about. Barely anyone to look after. Barely any burdens to bear. But this doesn't change the fact that I had a dream, which is now long past. These arts remind me of the dream. My enthusiasm in art, my love for Doraemon, the actual dreams I saw...

This image is so appealing, I can't express it in words. I wonder how I was able to type this much. Thanks for reading this pointless, incoherent yapping, if you did.

Another question: What is the point of raids?

I'm new and I mostly play story. The raids... Well, I've tried them a bit, but couldn't understand what I had to do with them. They don't give coins, don't give anything, seems like you're in a completely different world and it has nothing to do with the main game. Not to mention, some people talk about literal hackers (I don't know, I don't have enough experience to identify them). Worst part is that if yo don't enjoy it, you can't exit. You have to just close the app.

What's the point of raids (point, not appeal)?

I've come to the conclusion that u/Yoshidream is a troll/bot account made to defame us Zorotards.

Like wtf is this? I REFUSE TO BELIEVE THIS IS A SERIOUS/REAL TAKE.

I'd have ignored it as a joke but this whole account is something special.

My top 15 anime movies: How much of it do you like? Movies you'd suggest?

From 15 to 1.

Note: I have a deep love for anime-painting-style or simply Makoto Shinkai's visuals. The movie on the 15, The Place Promised In Our Early Days sucked when it comes to pacing or story. But the visuals... GOD WHEN I REMEMBER THIS MOVIE, I MAY NOT GET GOOSEBUMPS BUT I FIND IT HARD TO LITERALLY BREATH WITH HOW HAPPY-SAD THE VISUALS MAKE ME.

You can see something similar with Voices of a Distant Star as well, except it had better pacing and a watchable story.

My love for Shinkai and his visuals is clear in this ranking.

Some of you may ask why A Silent Voice is so low. Even I'm surprised. I always told everyone: Hey it's my top 5 favourite anime movies ever! But ranking them, yeah. It is on the 10th place. But boy see what anime are above it. All of the top 11 anime are so close to being perfect, it doesn't matter how you rank them, as nothing except nostalgia and personal opinion affects their ranking.

Talking about Nostalgia, you may get angry seeing the Doraemon movie there. But lemme tell you, It's so good, it'll be right where it is even if I watched it today. If you haven't watched it, try it once, especially if you love Shinkai! (Name: Nobita and the new steel troops: The Winged Angels (2011))

Thanks.

What would you suggest? I wanna watch a movie that makes my cry with its visuals alone.

Edit: It must be a technical error, I remember putting Reze-movie on top above I Want To Eat Your Pancreas (it's essentially equal to pancreas for me).

It's been around 4 weeks I have played, I'm in act 3, and at level 17. But I have only been able to reach agressive only once and brutal maybe 6-7 times. How can I get past agressive more frequently?

Like, I know you have to use different attacks, but I can't do that that well. I forget that I have many attacks and just use πŸ‘Š, πŸ‘ŠπŸ‘Š, β†’ + πŸ‘Š, β†’ + πŸ‘ŠπŸ‘Š, ↓+🦢🦢, and sometimes β†’+🦢. I can't get the combos right, and most of my combos are just β†’+πŸ‘ŠπŸ‘Š pre-coded multi-attacks or different types of weapon spamming.

Also, how can I get rid of my habit of getting hit by throw-weapons just at small distances?

(Also, I'm new so I will keep presenting my questions here)

I have a question: If I buy blood reaper now (I'm lvl 16), will I need to pay a lot of gems to level it up to my level? Also, if I beat Lynx for a second time in Eclipse, will I get his claws again, as we need gems on every level to upgrade his weapon.

Same as title

My small but decent theory about Shanks' actual role in the story: Did I cook?

Roger mentions "cumming too early", and not being the chosen one. Roger was very respected in his crew so I think this made him cry holding Roger.

Detail:

I think Roger told Shanks about the prophecy, Sun God, other four gods, and how the one not chosen by Sun God is not Roger, Rocks or Shanks. He was not the man the world was waiting for.

I think it matters because Shanks genuinely respected him a lot, and was emotionally hurt when Roger accepted that he was not the man. Roger probably also told him that Shanks also was not the one. If my idol and master told me that I can't succeed him because he himself is not very important, I would tear up. Same for Shanks too, I guess.

Roger probably also asked him to ensure the coming of Nikka. Shanks had to obey this.

**BUT** Shanks didn't support Luffy only because of that. He wishes to fight the Sun God; to prove his worth to Nika. To prove that Roger's heir is not unworthy, neither was Roger. He emotionally accepted Nika as his rival and himself as a stepping stone for the warrior of liberation. He knows that he can't beat the Sun God, but he wants to fight him nevertheless. Shanks will fight for his captain's pride.

This also explains why he didn't go for the One Piece until Luffy awakened his fruit. Because the One Piece isn't what he wishes for. He already knows that only Nika can truly use it. He wishes only to compete against Nika. To show him that Roger Pirates aren't meant to be taken lightly. That Nika did a mistake by disrespecting Roger and Shanks.

This would help the Luffy x Shanks meet up become emotionally heavier and a very enjoyable fight with emotional stakes about pride and affection, and not only the stakes of people dying or world falling apart.

Do we need to pay attention to this?? (1182)

Far cry, but COULD be the Eagle at the top of Yggdrasil who communicates with Nidhoggr or could even be the WAR god... or ummm... Devil, even? (Get the reference?)

Do you think there is anyone in this picture stronger than Luffy during the 5 minutes and 11 seconds when he is effectively a Yonko? List them.

How many (if any) of these can beat Luffy within those 5 minutes and 11 seconds? List them.

[Side Question: Which among these is your favourite screenshot/art?; Art scaling]
