FUCK I forgot to ask my anime question

okay that comic book Red Hood is like 10 pages long and the rest of it is just fucking ads (spoiler for my review)

is this normal for anime books? are anime books also all ads for yuri lesbian slop?

In the West you can buy manga as volumes. Japan they are in magazines like the newspaper funnies were and have ads. But even volumes have ads, albeit at the end of the book which you can just ignore. I can't ever remember a middle ad.

Kids these days are into webcomics anyways, some are hidden gems some are absolute shit but is surprising how "alive" the comic sphere is, i thought the art was dead until my niece showed me some that she liked, if there is to have a renaissance in western (or more specifically american) storytelling, they gotta capitalize on this, as much as i like Batman and superman and shit i think is time to put them to rest and get new shit going and show that we are better than the gook crap trannies consume.

I used to read a lot of webcomics back in the day, some of them were western comics (although pretty clearly imitating an oriental style), but I don't remember hearing anyone ever mention a webcomic that wasn't Korean, and it's kind of crazy to me that apparently Solo Leveling got an anime recently. Also, if you think western or Jap comics are kind of samey, you have read very few if any Chinese comics.

this is genuinely informative and i think this system is probably better than the way that it works in the US. DC would probably make more money if they sold monthly catalogs with different episodes instead of what I got in the mail.

i like my cheese subscription a lot and towards the end of the month I get excited for my new cheese. Every month would get the nerds excited for new capeshit.

Don't ask questions, just consume cheese and get excited for next cheese, Josh. This is why you can't lose weight.
Also, I might send you some deer jerky. But does taste gamey.
 
Here's two games that can be beaten in one sitting, aren't crazy hard and fit the spooktober season:

Iron Lung. You're a prisoner in a dying universe sent to scout for a habitable planet to gain freedom. You're in a shitty submarine under an ocean of blood. You use coordinates to move around and there is no way to see outside except to take pictures. Easy to beat in a single stream.

Squirrel Stapler. Boomer shooter style graphics. You hunt squirrels to staple to your wife. There is a shack to commit sins. And God is coming. Also can be beaten in one stream.
 
Hmmm i suppose buckshot roulette could be a good game to play too, it exactly what you think it is, a russian roulette game with this spooky dude, there's some items that can help you up however the dude can also use said items to fuck you over, is simple but very fun, specially since the AI is not too retarded but also not impossibly smart to the point it cheats like other similar games do.

Also no im not human wich is a similarly simple game where you allow people in your house and ask them questions to see if they are illegal aliens or americans as the california sun burns the outside world.

Two games that are fun to see others play, can be completed in one sitting and the complexity doesnt come in the form of a bullet hell or parkour.

Also I didnt realized how crippilingly autistic my taste in games were until trying to think of something that i have played that actually looked fun for normies and now im having an existencial crisis, oh well, time to play Cogmind to forget about it.

In Japan most of the ads are placed on the front slip cover where you'll see if there's a new sales milestone or author recommendation outside a very small removable advert placeholder inside there's no ads at all compare to burger comics where over half of the page count is dedicated to ads if you buy floppies even digital is plagued with them.

Western Comics are terrified of actually competing, because that would mean firing the idiots, making new NON SUPERHERO IP, and appealing to a mass market. You can literally find a manga for anything. Anything. You like robots? There's a series for that. Cooking? Romance? The standard Shonen slop of the day? Fuck there are literally DC and Marvel licensed Manga, the niggers are desperate to tap that market

They always made Cartman a desperate, fat, craven, pathetic, weak caricature of racists but he was always more relatable than the preachy Jew and his friend. I wonder if it chafes their asses that he remains the most popular and that Scott Tennerman Must Die is one of the best rated and most memorable episodes of all time.

I still maintain that Kenny's permadeath and subsequent irrelevancy return-by-network-obligation was one of the biggest signs the show was in decline. Kenny being removed indicated when Matt and Trey could no longer write characters and instead started writing themselves directly in to the show.

They've long since stopped trying to compete and are more about pushing agendas. Why do you think they hired a twitter tranny to write for them? The Comic industry knows its the biggest joke now and if EVS and the whole comicsgate fiasco didn't implode on itself we would be witnessing a new indie scene flourishing but instead its just filled with coomer comic scams because burgers have no work ethic.

Manga volumes are about 200 pages and the last 3 pages are ads for other mangas printed by the same company

Matt and Trey are just too old and out of touch now and basically had to scrap/re-write episodes because they were too focused on issues only rich folk like them would experience. Its why the show feels toothless now despite the quality drop not being as bad as other long running shows.
 
I could offer a few quick easy games to play
Zortch is a fun & easy boomer shooter that's an unholy mashup of chex quest & unreal.
Retro City Rampage is a top down 2D open world sandbox parody inspired by the first 2 GTA games with references to older game series & has been ported to many different consoles, including a limited release on DOS for 486 systems.
Scott Pilgrim vs The World: The Game was rereleased on Steam recently & is a good game on it's own. It's probably the first if not only thing positive people bring up in relation to the series.

But that happened in 2001, iirc. I can see why people dislike the show now, but i think South Park was good up until maybe 2013 ~ 2014? Up until Garrison became Trump and they serialized the whole thing for a couple of seasons.
Now it's a different show, it's rarely about just the kids anymore. The only thing i hate is that they give them a boatload of money to make, like, 6 episodes a year and, still, they make shitty episodes. When a show has 21 episodes, of course it's going to have some stinkers, but South Park should be airtight.
 
I second iron lung, it's very simple to understand what you need to do and lets you take your time. Interesting game
 
Look Outside.webp

i highly recommend Look Outside. (steam page)
idk if its the kinda game Null would wanna play but its a horror RPGmaker game that I think has an interesting story and amazing atmosphere and music.
it's not full of jump scares and stupid indie horror bullshit, its a turn based, lovecraftian, "body horror" game.
i really really loved this game and i wish more people knew about it so, if anyone is looking for a game to play this october i cant recommend this one enough!!
