    What is your opinion on Overlord by Maruyama Kugane (LN/anime)

    So you think that the MC is evil because he sees the world as a game? Is there anything in the actual story that supports that? Because I'm pretty sure I remember him in the first episode realizing that this is a real world, and then proceeding to act as if all the people in this world are real...

    What is your opinion on Overlord by Maruyama Kugane (LN/anime)

    I know that it is because of his race, that's what I meant when I said 'he's evil because he's a skeleton', if you think that my problem is that his change doesn't make any logical sense, that's by far the least of the issues here (although I'm really not convinced with the idea that removing...

    What is your opinion on Overlord by Maruyama Kugane (LN/anime)

    It starts off with a somewhat interesting premise: the protagonist has to pretend to be an evil overlord despite being just a normal guy. So we see him trying to convince his followers to save some village here or some other people there, while making it sound like he really is evil and this is...

    Spider-man 2 has awful writing

    The one thing I know about this game was listening to the "gender-neutral inclusive language" from the Spanish dub on YouTube. It almost made me spill my drink, it didn't even sound like Spanish at all, kinda sounded like French. I had to look at the subtitles to understand what they were saying.

    Was the origin of half of all Isekai plots hiding right under our noses?

    I think it's pretty clear that the game this trope is based on is Dragon Quest, not Final Fantasy. Not only is Dragon Quest a lot more popular in Japan, it is specifically a simple plot about a hero who has to defeat a "demon lord" that has an army of monsters, while the plot of Final Fantasy is...

    A shocking realization about the "kicked from the hero's party" trend. (Please don't do this.)

    In what world is Overlord in most people's top 10 anime? Maybe top 10 Isekai because most people can't even remember more than 10. My first comment was admittedly an exaggeration, I'm just tired of people overrating that show like crazy when I seriously don't think that it's anything special...

    What's the point?

    As someone who hasn't written anything in 5 months because of how disillusioned I am with the very idea of web novels in general, I took a quick look at your novel and it doesn't seem bad at all. Seriously, do you have any idea of how low the standards are? You are nowhere near the bottom.

    A shocking realization about the "kicked from the hero's party" trend. (Please don't do this.)

    I really seem to have struck a nerve by pointing out that Overlord is bad, seeing how you are still seething over a low-effort comment from almost a week ago. I didn't want to explain myself better since Overlord fans always refuse to listen to any criticism of their edgy sacred cow, but I...

    What is a Hero?

    The heck is the 'cannibalization' of a trope? I've never heard that term before and I can't find anything in google.

    What is a Hero?

    In the context of fiction, a hero is someone who acts with good intentions and has an overall positive effect on other people. If the intentions are bad but the result is good, it's an anti-hero. If the intentions are good but the result is bad, it's an anti-villain. Naturally, people might...

    Your opinions on powerscalers in shonen manga fanbases

    I just cannot help but groan when I see someone trying to use real-world physics to calculate the power level of someone who can move faster than light...

    A shocking realization about the "kicked from the hero's party" trend. (Please don't do this.)

    It's always annoying to see something as bad as Overlord in a list of "good isekai". Overlord is one of the worst isekai ever written, far worse than any of the generic stuff you're complaining about.

    Your thoughts on the live action adaptation of One Piece

    One piece was designed to be a manga/anime, a live-action adaptation could never work as well as the original. Before the show came out I was wondering what these people were even thinking, turning something so cartoony into live-action seemed like an impossible task. That is why I am in awe...
