So, in this case I happened to recognize the fence and it's color because it's pretty distinctive, and in the context of a jirai kei being there it's not that unexpected. This is corroberated by the other pages in this comic, even though this was the first one that got me to pay attention to it. After realizing it's this park, it's just a matter of checking all sides (one side doesn't have this fence), and post #8136076 also helped locate it in relation to the toilets block.

We can only hope she becomes a Dragon Girl Digimon who references FATE/ LIZ!

they bleached her. so cruel!

Womp womp, get rekt noob

Anti anime on an anime website

Context / Reference:

A popular reaction image used on forums like Something Awful / Facepunch (RIP) / Knockout with a large userbase of people with some connection to Source games like TF2. There has always been a large divide between the pro-anime and anti-anime people in the TF2 community. So whenever the discussion in a thread became "too anime" it's been a tradition for the antis to spam this reaction image.

There's been multiple new installments from various series which have had to sit through a period of unanimous unapproval. I'm not sure if it's a growing trend or troubled individuals running sockpuppets.

Considering that it only takes one approver to approve a post, I'm curious how you think sockpuppets could possibly affect the situation at all. Even if someone had a hundred sockpuppets and somehow managed to get them all promoted to approver without raising suspicions, what difference would it make? They could all choose not to approve a post, and it would still take only one other person to approve it.

...and it seems we finally got that guy! Eighth's time the charm I guess...

Two World War Two era battleships (big ones), a fleet carrier, and a destroyer verse what looks like two Zumwalt-class 21st century destroyers? I am not sure how to rate that kind of fight.

...DAMMIT AMAGI!!! That's fighting dirty!!

Also...I WANT TO SEE A BIGGER PIC OF AMAGI-CHAN IN THAT UNIFORM. She looks like she'd be Cuteness Overload in it.

Armathos said:

Akagi should have to bear a heavier burden to earn forgiveness. You don't get to start a war, commit innumerable atrocities and then claim victim status later. Whether grim, the literal embodiment of the fighter squadron that protected Yorktown, and then Enterprise, is less than pleasant to others is irrelevant. Nothing he has done, nothing he could have done, compares even a little to what Akagi and Kaga have done, never mind Japan as a whole.

Mindsets like yours are why wounds are so scarce to heal. If you haven't already please seek psychological counseling. You need it.

I am referring to the ship, the ship correctly referred to with male pronouns.

Except "she" is the correct pronoun for Bismark, despite what that idiot of a captain thought. He believed that Bismarck should be considered male because she was the most powerful battleship Germany ever made despite the fact that there were at least EIGHT battleships in the world that had more firepower, and most of those also had radar that didn't get ruined when the rifles fired.

So no, Bismarck is a she, not a he.

Bismarck, like every ship ever built anywhere, is an inanimate object. It is not a he, nor a she, it is a THING.

Ships have always historically used female pronouns and that trend continues today. Try having this argument with real sailors and see how much they care.

Which would only show how some people are stupidly attached to inanimate objects as if they were alive.

We play a game that makes characters out of these ships because it's fun and yostar can relatively easily write amusing or interesting scenarios based on their service histories.

Considering that ship is the only thing between you and a watery grave, it made sense for sailors to treat their vessels with the utmost respect. Treating them like a lady one might say.

That tradition continues even today, with very few languages making the exception. Ships are either women or gendered after who they're named after.

Vegeta002 said:

More likely "Bismarck", the Sabaton song about how awesome the Bismarck was.

Which actually kinda makes me wonder how AL Bismarck feels about the real world Bismarck being male, making her one of the only known genderswapped characters.

Eh, that's a point of contention. As far as it is to my knowledge only two people ever called IRL Bismarck male during that time; the ship's CO and the CO of the submarine U-556. Everyone else both their crews and elsewise called her "she". This of course excludes Naval Historians and Sabaton's retellings of those two men, has referred to Bismarck as the traditional "she" across the board.
Personally I side with maintaining her as herself due to the alleged reasoning of the COs for calling Bismarck "him" just being a pitiful attempt to somehow snub Hitler, as opposed to trying to make any noble statements regarding naval ship naming conventions or really anything else really naval related. The part that actually matters for ship's.
I don't mind bucking traditional conventions if there is a sound reasoning for doing so, however being politically petty isn't sound, it's just sad.

Wife and Husband right there <3

I once had a crush on the artist who drew this but then I realized that was weird and parasocial and that also they weren't interested in people like me which taught me the importance of never crushing on people who draw the chicken nugget from maxdesignpro known for singing Cotton Eyed Joe.

I don't much like Akagi's attitude here. She didn't just refuse to train Akagi-chan, she also treated her entire existence like a bother, her first line in the comic is "Go play in traffic." And now she's playing the "If you wanna teach a little girl how to watch her friends die, then be my guest" guilt card, like somehow she's the bastion of morality here when her callous treatment of the younger version of herself is what started all this in the first place.

The thing is that this resembles in game Akagi very much, she only wanted Amagi back, but got her smaller self as well, which she didn't want, and though it's true that she's really guilt tripping E here, she has a super valid point. I mean seriously look at how bad Midway and everything after went for the IJN fleet, Mikasa being the only one that didn't get sunk, scuttled or scrapped. It's honestly surprising that they are having remotely elongated talks,

I don't think people are saying she doesn't resemble her game self -- rather that her trying to guilt-trip E falls apart under scrutiny.

She has no valid point. She caused the war to start, she inflicted the same damage on EU battleships. Midway is karmic retribution, she needs to shut up and sit down, she has no right insinuating guilt on anyone over anything.

You can cause something to happen and still have a valid point to make about it being bad. Military service depending on who you ask is about protecting you family, friends and homeland, yet at the end of the day regardless of who fires the first shot, by the end of it hundreds, thousands, millions, of people are dead. Homes are gone and someone has lost their family, their friends, and depending on the overall outcome their sovereignty. A soldier can look at this and rightfully say even as the one to fire the first shot, that war is worse than any Hell you can imagine, and that it shreds the innocent and meek as much as it takes coal across the vile and strong.

why is that always used as a defense for the axis and never for the allies? :BlobThonkSpin:

Because they don't need to be defended that way. Doesn't mean it's not a valid argument.

in all honesty, it shoulda been the charger hellcat, rather than the challenger hellcat.

Brits still use miles for road travel, also it would be silly asking distances in kilometers from an American in America.

Something tells me the rest of the base is watching this on the news and either laughing or facepalming.

The drawing style of the character expressions reminds me of "9 Chickweed Lane" somewhat.

Literally everything lists Keanu as Shadow's VA. You can't seriously tell me every single professional and reputable source went ahead and listed Keanu as a member of the cast without confirmation?

Where is it proven it's only a rumor?

Official accounts haven't made note of it, according to my knowledge
