how do you even find that

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.

    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...

    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 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:
