i dunno how to feel about takeru being in a chaldea boy's collection CE... it feels kind of... antithetical? a bunch of japanese users seem confused, too...
also, i cant find the artist for the life of me. theyre just credited as 読 ingame which doesnt bring up a whole lot of results.

Already edited picture info. Artist is Kiskil-Ilira. There´s a post with the CE border, wanna upload it?

Caenis has also been featured in the Chaldea Boys' Collection CEs too. Takeru is not really much of a stretch, imo

I mean, Enkidu has been on a CBC craft essence as well. And it’s still a cute pic of Takeru so I don’t think it’s that much of a problem.
It's already being done with how the Federal government will list people's genders and which prisons they're placed in. They're only going by what is on the person's birth certificate now, which has to be particularly problematic for intersexed people since the doctors can end up just guessing a gender in some of those cases.
You and GreyOmega are both morons. This isn't about politics, it's a joke that 3 of the 4 present are futa, but you'd see that if you looked at the tags. But no, your brains have both been thoroughly corrupted by the cancer that is politics. God I hate politics, and I hate people like you that have to try to make literally everything about it.
There's also ANOTHER mission in Armored Core For Answer that involves going into a kojima contaminated field that is also the equivalent of a poison swamp too

kojima contaminated field
...pffft. I dunno if Kojima is some kind of poison in Armored Core, but now I can't unsee floating Kojima pngs floating in the air and causing auditory hallucinations of MGS2's colonel telling you to turn your Playstation off, and asking if you feel like a hero yet.
But now the arms are the complete other way around, did the archeologists get it that wrong when I was a kid and interested in these things? And then how are you supposed to use your claws like that when hunting?
To be fair most theropod dinosaurs obviously fed using their legs to immobile their prey and just took bites out of them. The only one I think used their "arms" more often than the others was the Spinosaur since it was most likely a partial quadruped
Even the Jurassic Park Velociraptors had pathetically tiny arms and claws to be honest. iirc, the main way that's theorized on how they hunted was their mouth and their clawed feet being used to tear into downed prey. A lot of raptors tend to have a much larger nail on their feet compared to the others that's theorized to be the thing used to rip.
Just because their arms looked tin doesn't mean they were weak. Paleontologists discovered that the T-Rex's arms were hella strong despite of their short length

Apparently these critters mostly hunted things smaller than themselves. Plus, even with inwardly facing arms, the creature still could use them to grasp things in front and below itself. IIRC the current popular theory for how small dromaeosaurids would eat is still this.
Raptor feeding mechanics
(A) grasping foot holds on to prey. (B) hypertrophied D-II claw used as anchor to maintain grip on large prey. (C) predator's bodyweight pins down victim. (D) beam-like tail aids balance. (E) low-carried metatarsus helps restrain victim. (F) “stability flapping” used to maintain position on top of prey (see Supporting Information Videos S1 and S2). (G) arms encircle prey (“mantling”), restricting escape route. (H) head reaches down between feet, tearing off strips of flesh (may explain unusual deinonychosaurian dental morphology). Victim is eaten alive or dies of organ failure.

Paleontologists*, Archeologists are the ones studying human history, Paleontologist are the ones studying prehistory, just a small correction.
But yeah, since then it was discovered that their hands were locked in a "clapping" position, with each hand facing each other, instead of facing downwards in a pronating pose, since their ulna and radius were incapable of twisting like ours, which is what allows us to rotate our hands. Besides that, some ichnofossils of sitting theropods directly shows us that their hands were placed in a "clapping" orientation. This is also true for every theropod.

Spinosaurus wasn't quadrupedal, their hands were not strong enough to support the weight, but yeah, it and it's relatives, specially Baryonyx, used their enlarged thumb claws for snatching fish out of the water.
Besides them, Megaraptorians also used their frontal limbs for tackling prey, somewhat similar to modern Big Cats and Bears. They were the opposite of most theropods, evolving smaller heads and bigger arms, rather than bigger heads and smaller arms.
