    Warhammer 40k's chaos gods are so fucking popular.

    This is my eighth chinese work seeing them jumping up and down.

    And the best part is that they are always used as templates for evil gods. No exception in Cthulhu style, xianxia taoist style and obviously, xuanhuan/ western style in chinese.

    Ano~ Half devil advocate here.

    1) Its like Yang Mi in urban CNs. Or its skills issue or they found its the ez way out (tired to see Yang Mi cameo)
    2) It sure works. Like 3rd Hokage being re-used nonstop as the villain. So they lazy
    3) Others used, would means, higher risks and/or knowing the sauce
    So unless of being hardcore fan (like the author of MageFriends that told he is hc of DnD) they likely dont know others

    oh.

    Understand.
    Its "too clean".

    Gaming logic : Monster should be blurred/cant be seen.

    Here, you see TOO CLEARLY the teeth. he could even do a toothpaste ad or looks like a statue.
    Manhwa, readers dont KNOW anything of him, if demon/devil/monster/god/subordinate of demongod/???/golem/etc = unknown = scary.

    Yep. But was focusing the reason of : The anime not hitting (as much?) as the manhwa.

    I mean.
    If manhwa is like a giant cement truck rushing at 300km/h with a giant honk that is deafening, in a deserted alley.
    The anime (screenshot) is like a 160km/h, with a sparkling-clean white moving truck, with a highpitch honk. Its scary but like -70% compared to (1).

    So Return of 8th class Mage intro-ed me the concept of mana heart and mana brain.

    The heart is the generator and the brain the processor.

    And since they are literally two of the three dantians, I was thinking what to put the Root (lower) dantian as, mana stomach? Mana furnace? (This sounds more like for the heart cuz "heart burns")

    Also the stomach is not exactly used for mana, at least unlike taoist cultivation

    I don't think I reached that far yet, still I enjoyed the system in it, but I can't see myself write something like this.

    Oops sorry for spoiler.

    Also I think due to the bulk of it, Legion20 (the author) got shafted by his own core system and kept on intro-ed new elements other than the standard fire, water, earth, wind, light n dark.

    I don't mind the spoiler. But yeah I can see his system becoming too much "dense" that it become a burden.

    Saw a short on why Supe never go Gotham and clear the villains.

    Because Batman needs these villains for character development.

    I pity the folks in Gotham.

    Oh good, for one second I thot everyone was in opposite day in xianxia land.

    Not only was MC cheated for his reward (granted he got compensated, albeit poorly he can't complain. He literally can't because he will die), but fuckers who saw that he is going to level up now want him dead, just because crab mentality.

    And here I thot I read a non-CN all of a sudden, thank god that isn't true.
    NotaNuffian
    Dammit dammit dammit.

    I really am at cusp of dropping.

    Work hooked me initially with MC went Brrr kill kill kill at first half when he was mortal human.

    Then now he sucks air and on path to immortal, he also sucks ass.

    Hate hate hate hate.
    NotaNuffian
    I am very fucking confused. Due to the story being way too long to update, there are some human relations that are muddled in my head.

    For instance, I thought that guy A knew that MC is his long lost cousin because MC knows that guy A is his long lost cousin, but somehow in the latest chp a paragraph just says guy A does not know that MC is his long lost cousin.

    I have been seeing this chinese phrase a lot recently, especially within a year.

    "When you are weak and pathetic, everyone around you is an evil bully. When you are strong and powerful, everyone around you is a nice helper."

    Put it bluntly, when you can't hit back, everyone wants to step on you, even for lulz. When you can kill, everyone sees you as a hazard to be treated with care.

    I just stopped after some arc.

    I understand greed is involved, that is always how the CN MCs face their enemies plus pride (because they think that they are God's chosen/ MC of the story lol).

    Nice to see the Chinese still have yet to discover what altruism is.

    People can behave kind towards one another without needing to leverage a power dynamic, anyone who believes otherwise is a unsavory person.

    Tell that to most, if not all chinese characters I read.

    Also, I don't know why, but when MC does some kind things to others ie give the poor food/ money, help prevent a calamity etc, I always feel a sense of fakeness, especially when the voices of onlookers are involved.

    "Look, he saved us, he is a hero who would exert himself!" -The peanut group.

    While MC is barely straining his pinky.

    Those who think that life is hard should abide to the mantra "The worst has yet to come."

    I thought dodo was a predatorless bird
    Click to expand...
    Oops my bad.
    Yep their island didnt have predators.

    I meant prev post in meaning : He is like at bottom of food chain to the whole animal chain of the whole globe.

    ps : so yeah, it was lucky to be in a paradise island without other predators (or i guess they would turn extinct BEFORE HUMANS came)

    Humans were a big reason. But another big reason were the rats.
    That came on the boats with the sailors.

    The rats, escaped boats, and gone on the island, ate the eggs of the dodos. (on the ground)
    If not for them, even if they ate their bellies until they exploded, pretty sure there would be 1 DUDE going : hey let's keep some for the return

    But reality : F ! Why they did they suddenly stopping appearing !?

    I won't take it as an attack. As a dodo, I am too stupid to understand the implications anyway. :blob_uwu:

    Dammit, I accidentally created two characters with the same hair color, amethyst and purple are the same right?

    You can always say that their hair are literally made of amethysts. Like, a lot of amethysts.

    Dammit. I thought amethyst would be brighter than purple.
