There's a problem with a lot of these "urban villain" types, because of the place of origin, especially in these last few years due to propaganda, like, they won't break the law anymore, it's a little sad, especially the more realistic "urban villain" types
If you think about it, many people metaphorically "add salt onto the wounds", but few people carry around a bag of salt to literally sprinkle on the wounds of their enemies
I just found out something weird. People in Japan sometimes give the deceased new names so that when their old names are used after their death their ghosts don't appear. These dharma names cost a lot of money however and the quality of the name depends on how much you spend. So it's basically a practice to scam grieving families out of their money.
Perhaps the problem with the "realistic" type Pokemon stories is that there is a focus on being too dark, or too internal, or just on Pokemon, when the darkest thing is the human heart
With cheating and cuckoldry comes either separation or forgiveness, and since to NTR is to put on a green hat, sometimes, shades of green are called "forgiveness green"
"When in doubt in the cultivation world and asked of where you got your cheat system rewards, you can always push the blame onto a nameless and mysterious elder in the jianghu who gave you things for a cryptic reason."
I feel a reason why realism pokemon stories never feel real is because there's a lack of real feeling history in setting.
Like if you look at real world history, then silph co should be a survivor of the government targeting zaibatsus after the previous wars, while giovanni should be remnant of the era where entrepreneurs had to do shady shit, like
There's this one story where the MC, after absorbing Majin Buu and Frieza, went and beat up Saitama barely, causing Saitama to go into a daze. After a while, Saitama snapped out of it and declared that he'll do 200 push-ups, 200 sit-ups, 200 squats, and 20 kilometers of long-distance running every day from now on.
The new Prince of Tennis bothers my brain. How is it that people can make black holes, alternate dimensions, resurrect the dead, and the like with a tennis racket?
It's never really explained how these "return of the god of war" in the urban genre web novels can make, like, a mercenary force capable of fighting nations in, like, five years, and have, like, 100,000 soldiers under them, and like, where do they even fight, some of these stories write them fighting in mexico for cartels, which I find more believable than those that say they fucked around in the middle east
there's this one story where a protagonist gets isekaied ancient China as a eunuch and the first thing that he does is fuse gecko DNA to regenerate a certain part of his body
There's this one story that has chakra training be "body refining", and then had MC upgrade from that to qi refining, then ling refining, etc. I'm a little sick of them destroying the setting, but then I remember that the setting was in large part inspired by such myths so
like there were a lot of stories that almost made it there back when everyone wrote Harry Potter crossovers but it seems like it was only crossovers with one setting
Seen a lot of "comprehensive/mixed/aggregate/gestalt wuxia setting", but not really seen the similar for a magical world. I mean, not like a fantasy world, but, you know, a combined fantasy london or something. Like, there's a Diagon Alley, Clock Tower, White Council, etc. ... maybe even a Kingsmen, like, all in one world, you know?
In the past, five hundred taels of silver was equivalent to one envelope, and two hundred and fifty taels was equivalent to half envelope, which is homophonic to "half-crazy". So now, if you say someone is "250", you refer to that person as foolish and reckless.
