"Fun" has been mentioned 55 times in the Mandalorian and Grogu thread.

Sounds like a fun movie!

It’s definitely certain she’s not biased in any way at all.

I'd always heard spain spanish is relatively different from mexican spanish

what is it like for you? like would you be able to say it might be similar to US english compared to UK english? or is it more different, less different?

Is probably more like UK and USA english. Or even more like the UK and Scottish accents.  

For example, I just discovered Rafillo:



I couldn’t understand half of it the first time.  But Spaniards in the comments said that couldn’t either.  

Anyway, when I was a kid I saw two Dragon Ball Z movies in VHS in Spain Spanish, so is not a big problem.

BTW, also remember than Spanish is not the only language on Spain.

I feel like this thread is a very good example of how online discourse is completely aimed at trying to get a monolithic, authoritative group of people to share one's opinion to then bask in that authority and claim your opinion as some kind of objective truth. "I think japanese people probably know more about this than you..." etc.

Which of course only works if you accept that these examples are proof that all japanese people are of this opinion, that they are indeed a monolith and that any disagreement is disagreeing with the nation at large.

We had the same thing happen when some japanese social media users where unhappy about Yasuke in AC: Shadows - where the entire grifter right has immediately and to this day claimed authority on this issue because they have used Japanese people who shared their opinion to claim that disagreement with them is instead disagreement with all of Japan.

Its still absolutely fine to think and express that FH6 is not a great representation of Japan based on your experiences, even if you are not Japanese - because it's disrespectful and frankly just weird to try to paint the opinions of hundreds of thousands, possibly millions of people as uniform and unassailable based on half a dozen social media posts which are very specifically talking about the graphics of the game. They are not talking about the music, the sounds of the world (or lack thereof), the festival, NPCs, voice acting or a million other Things you could specifically like or dislike.

Please don't paint regular-ass countries as these strange monoliths and use other people's opinions to claim moral superiority of your own.

I appreciate this!

scottish accent makes total sense

That Japan is allied with Germany and Italy in this struggle is no ground for assuming that any Japanese, barred from assimilation by convention as he is, though born and raised in the United States, will not turn against this nation when the final test of loyalty comes. It, therefore, follows that along the vital Pacific Coast over 112,000 potential enemies, of Japanese extraction, are at large today.

You know, we spend very many years studying the inarticulate bollocks of national socialism and russified communism but the way that americans write basic document stuff is so cringe. We can blame much of the failure of western leftism on shit prose in US unis.

Reads like a resetera staff announcement

For real I had like 5 goes at the PERFECT bdubs tone

I think the big difference is that International Corpos will prioritize Spaniard Spanish over LATM. You don’t have any idea oh many DVD and Blu Rays I bought locally got a Spaniard Dub even when there was a LATM Dub playing in TV.  

(Another reason why I’m cynical about Corpos and cheapness)

what the fuck

For everyone that is wondering if this is a mod, fan-made or AI

This is real gameplay footage at the highest settings from the latest AC Shadows 1.1.6 update. The mission here is an AoT collab, you can see for yourself how much effort Ubisoft has put into it

what the fuck

In the comic mark nearly dies, then gets better and is there when the problem is solved.


There spoiled the whole series for you. And saved you 4 months of reading

You know, there was a period of time when old comic heads used to encourage newbies to read whatever they were interested rather than discouraging them, given how bad comic sales were and still are.

I think Slayven is just mad that someone else made comic book thread without being an obnoxious prick about it.

Also Invincible does not take four months to read lmao

Imagine thinking that you need 4 months to read Invincible.
