I don't think we're in a position to judge them, chief.

    My god, why this weapon is so long :o Isn't making it more fragile?

    Blacksmith showing off as is the case with the biggest Zhanmadao/Zanbato. Some were ceremonial as in only a god is supposed to use them, and others were similar to the Nazi Wunderwaffen i.e. the maker imagined it would be a good superweapon. In a very small number of cases the intended human user was much bigger than the population average so the weapon was scaled up to match.

    Pikes can be 3 to 7 meters, and in some cases as long as 10 meters (Japan). Pike formations developed into a common form of infantry, and even continued to be used for a while even after the invention of firearms.

    Pikes were, after all, a good defence for your musket formations that were potentially going to be charged by cavalry, as well as against charging enemies in general. Long sticks that were either sharp or had sharp bits of stone or metal atop them have been a mainstay of hunters for THOUSANDS of years for a good reason.

    Yet Adeptus Astartes is a tag despite being an organisation. Or really, any wargame with factions.

    It's never been clear how that tag was actually intended to be used, but that tag would be best used to tag the generic members. In which case, it makes perfect sense to be a character tag. Caesar's Legion is not being used that way, so it makes no sense for it to be a character tag.

    Imagine uploading and favoriting sexualized images of underage characters and characters with the appearance of being underage and still having the confidence to call someone else a pedo for defending fictional content and claim no correlation when your own hypocrisy is pointed out.

    Oh wow you edited it and made it worse. Bruh, you uploaded that Kyouka post after this one.

    Forget what I said before, imagine uploading this stupid meme post, then uploading a sexualized 15 year old, and then jumping onto a moral high horse to criticize other people's taste in fictional characters. Calling you a clown is an insult to the circus.

    The fact that you did put two and two together and still failed make it out as obvious satire will never not be the funniest shit to me.

    You claim to defend the art of "Lolicon" yet you've blinded yourself to the point where everything is perceived as a threat. Doesn't mean that's a bad thing especially with the Twitter Squad and their bias against eastern media.

    I didn't claim to be doing that, and nothing you've said works as satire.

    That’s not satire, that’s intentionally baiting an argument and trolling, and/or backpedaling after being genuine

    Context:

    The director of Kemono Friends' season 1, Tatsuki, was fired from the production team of its season 2 on September 25, 2017. This was posted on the very next day.

    Tatsuki was the person who turned the then-failing franchise of Kemono Friends into a surprise viral hit on an extremely limited budget and unsuccessful launches of games prior to the anime's airing.

    Tatsuki's firing resulted in fans putting the blame on Kadokawa, the publisher of Kemono Friends, among many other mangas and animes. Tatsuki's tweet announcing his firing was on Twitter's trending within hours, and Kadokawa was accused of attempting to cover up the incident -- a Japanese morning news show which reported on this matter blurred out the word "Kadokawa" in Tatsuki's tweet, and Niconico, which was owned by Kadokawa censored trends about this. Hence this picture, and many other memes, which can be seen by searching kadokawa and kemono_friends. Examples of this includes post #2871082 and post #3698232. In both of these posts, Kadokawa was depicted as a Houou, a bird-like mythical creature that was featured in Kadokawa's logo. Comments under those posts also provide contexts on this matter.

    Little did everybody know back then that KF's season 2 would become a clusterfuck of controversies and Tatsuki's firing was just the beginning. It ended up being one of the worst-rated animes ever -- it appears to me that KF S2 was better received in the West than it was in Japan.

    post #3605621 is another reference to this "worst-rated" thing. In a Niconico live stream, a whopping 95.3% of viewers gave KF S2E9 a 1 out of 5, surpassed Yu-Gi-Oh Arc-V, making KF S2E9 literally the worst-rated anime episode on the platform. It also ranks almost rock bottom on most East Asian anime review sites, contrasting okay-ish ranking on Western sites.

    English Wikipedia calling KF S2's reception "mixed" is an extreme understatement. Japanese Wikipedia's article on KM the anime and KM S2 writes about its controversies in far greater detail. The Niconico Pedia also has a detailed account on social media exchanges by the production teams KM.

    This meme originates from a Hong Kong TV drama with the line "Sony is guilty, he makes our people angry". This screenshot is commonly used to make fun of Sony products.

    Nobody really thinks about the fact that Wriggle has one of the creepiest powers in the franchise, just image her sicking giant bugs on you

    insects are creepy but let's not forget this is a franchise with a women who can make portals and pretty much anything that exists can come out of said portal, a hell raven with radioactive powers so radiation sickness, a spider girl who can control diseases so super cancer. plus tons of other ones.
