Everytime I come back for vacation I always tidy it up but it always end up like this again:( Seeing this photo in family group sadden me, it would be a good place to take a photo if it's tidy duh.

Garuda Palace, IKN, Indonesia

Straight up an evil headquarter in Berserk. Funnily enough, the IKN city project is very controversial and put Indonesia in tons of debt. It's also supposed to be a new capital city.

How is PtN on Emulator

How is PtN on Emulator? Back then it's quite laggy and you need to play that end of chapter scene. Is that still the case? Also, what emulator do you use?

I respect this attention to detail on the subtitle by Muse Asia

I don't use crunchyroll but i wonder if this is common in the industry. But i can just feel th passion from the staff in this kind of miniscule thing.

Batuque is underrated and recommendations?

Finished Batuque. I think it's underrated? Not much review on website I read it. Honestly, I love the theme on freedom and family. Not to mention the fucking amazing art and fight. One of the most best visualized hand to hand combat I've ever seen.

Anyway, I need recommendations on female Martial artist manga like this. I've read Isshou Senkin and Girls of the Wild. Doesn't need to be an FMC, Martial art manga with female characters that has good screen time is enough for my thirst rn.

Superpower named after a book

You know how in Jojo the stands are named after band or album right. I thought it would be cool if there's power system with book-based power.

Hunger Games, Paradise Lost, Alice in Wonderland, and Maze Runner sounds like a domain type power. The Alchemist, Wizard of Oz, Crime and Punishment, and Divergent sounds like wielding type power.

Then imagine the hype if some villain pulls out something like Lord of the Ring or The Bible. The ideas absolutely not gonna work tho. They changed some stands name in Jojo bcs copyright issues.

Any chance they put Rozemyne to Isekai Quartet?

It would be so peak 😭 She's absolutely going to holed up in the library or it would be funnier if the school didn't have library at all. She's gonna be so full of herself and leaving the confused Yurgen people in another world. Ferdinand is 100% attacking any inhumanely looking being unless he's a teacher. Honestly Ferdinand in that world would be the funniest whether he become student or teacher.

HnG s4 upgrade i thought we would get

I was so hype when they announced WIT studio for s4 production but honestly it didn't live to my expectation. Then i had some spare time recently and watch slime s4 and i almost cry tears of blood in jealously. It's literally my wet dream of HnG production upgrade. It's nothing top tier like Mushoku, Demon Slayer, ChainsawMan or Witch Hat Atelier, but it's very good.

Now that i think about it, Tensei Slime and HnG had something in common in which there's a bunch of talking to many parties there's even a whole episode of meeting. The previous season of slime should've serve as a good example. They seem to not of afraid that the anime would be too slow or boring with the talking. They trust their already existing fanbase would bear to watch the talking part and in the process some new fan might join in.

If Slime is an action fantasy then HnG would be something like drama fantasy (especially part 1-3). Just by the genre, Slime is expected to have action so it's nothing weird if they want to rush the dialogue while HnG is expected to have more talking than action but what happened seems to be reversed. They clearly seem to be rushing for part 4 for more exciting action. Or yeah, it might just be funding difference.

[Black Lagoon Roberta OVA] Fuck the Lovelace

Well, fuck the Lovelace. Rock didn't deserve what Fabiola did at the end. They come begging and literally crying specifically for his help. Sure Rock is never been in the warzone but it's not like he didn't put anything on the line either. Dutch told him to stop helping them if Roberta come in contact with the american first before they reach them and yet Rock offer the boy that he will see it through the end if the boy still wants it. In the first place, nobody would even give a crap for somebody else's businesses in that city.

Sure in the end Rock's gamble the boy's life but what else they could do at that point? Putting his life on the line is the least that the boy could do after involving everyone in his shit. They forget everything Rock did up to that point just because of that? If Rock doesn't help them at the beginning they would not even had the chance to find Roberta. Surely they realize Rock isn't doing all that shit for fun? I do think Rock is getting self satisfaction for what he did and what Rock said at the end to the boy is a bit off but its literally the best outcome. So what? It's not the best or safest way? Well, beggars can't be choosers bitch. How about think of a way by yourself. The city and it's ppl are all shit? You've been told that since beginning and come by yourself but you attacked the one that help you the most?

I actually read the manga first and watch later bcs i didn't know there's ova for this arc, but even later in the manga when Rock ask for help Fabiola treat him like shit and the boy isn't friendly either. At least Roberta had the conscience to let him in but of course she is, you literally owe him your life bitch. But even then, she find it necessary to threatened Rock.

Help me find an Angst Martial Manga i've read

I only remember some tidbits here and there. The theme and vibes feels like Shuzo Oshimi's work which is depression all over. But it actually martial arts manga. As teen he got into prison bcs he killed somebody and i think he have sister. He learn karate or boxing with some master in there, got really good at it, and i guess he become some kind of Yakuza after out of prison. There's a tournament arc and he become some kinda legend/champion through that. It might be boxing tournament. I also remember that he sleeps with lots of women and the ending is him dying in forest alone. He supposed to go to his home, a villa in a beach but he died in the forest after fighting the last enemy. But he manage to save his sister in the end (which is in the villa). The ending is quite impactful to me. It also have quite a lot of chapter. I think at least over 200. Art is also really good, it's kinda like "The Climber" art.

[H5Y] Holy shit it's Rozemyne isn't it

I was re-reading (P5V4) and stumble across this. After reading the H5Y this gotta be Rozemyne isn't it? She must've accompanied Ferdy from sovereignty. I need to see this bit from Rozemyne's pov plss how she feels upon seeing mini Ferdinand and leaving him knowing he had to face Veronica's cruelty. I'm also surprised on how long the author have planned this whole time travel plot line.

Does Chihayafuru big back in the day?

Not long ago I watched Chihayafuru and continue it to the manga. I think it is so peak that I wonder why I almost never heard about it. I have about 400+ anime in My Anime List so I thought I know my stuff around, so I'm quite surprised why there's not more talk about this series. I don't think I ever seen a single tiktok video about it.

Is it kinda like Nisekoi where it's crazy popular back then but ppl just doesn't talk about it much nowadays? If so I guess it just happen to be outside of my social bubbles or maybe just not popular in my country. Or maybe it is really just not popular bcs the niche theme. But I've checked, and it had quite good rating and number of vote in MAL.

I actually felt left out that I couldn't join the hype as it was airing if it was really popular. The manga is also finished too (damnit!) so there's really not that much of forum.
