I MISSED THE EQUIVALENT OF PLACE IN LEMMY? Does anyone have context?
I missed it too! Guess I don't sub to the right communities?
If you want to be sure to catch it next year, sub to the Canvas comm on toast.ooo!
Megumin from KonoSuba. It's a hilarious show, I'd recommend giving it a watch.
But like, not if anyone you respect is around
Unfortunately as it is with half of all anime.
That's the ultimate arch-wizard, the number one mage in axel! Otherwise known as crazy explosion girl
Exploooooooooooooooooosion! Can you Carry me back?
That is a part-fully autonomous remote detonator.
It stops being autonomous after the detonation, until it is recharged.
The remote charge is fully contained within it and is able to remotely deploy and detonate the charge, given LOS and other conditions are favourable.
She's Pico, from the "Boku no Pico Academia" native isekai cartoon. :^)
[I'm joking. As others answered, the character is Megumin, from KonoSuba. A chuuni who knows only a single magic, Explosion, that often hits her own allies. I recommend the show, by the way, even for people who aren't into isekai.]
There are so many words that I don't understand
- Megumin = the character
- KonoSuba = the anime series (the actual title is rather long)
- chuuni = basically a delusional teen who sees the world through rather coloured glasses. (I'm being simplistic)
- isekai = stories where the main protagonist (not Megumin in this case, but her friend Kazuma) is sent to another world, often a fantasy one (that's the case here).
Thank you! I'm not into anime and now your comment makes much more sense for me!
You're welcome! I kind of forget that anime/manga fan terminology is opaque. ~~ani.social did this to me.~~
You are truly evil. Do you need a hug or something
Do you need a hug or something
Nah, Kazuma might get jealous.
You are mean. They'll have nightmares.
No, nightmares would be Redo of a Healer.
Objective achieved.
(Some might look into Boku no Hero Academia though. I'm not a big fan of the series but plenty people like it.)
I wouldn't call it "isekai" as in the general term. It's a "isekai parody" or rather making fun of the genre "isekai".
Personally I see it simply as a comedy isekai. Or at most an isekai parodying common isekai tropes. That's up to definitions though, so there isn't a "right" answer.
The anime is more comedy than isekai, the light novels on the other hand are definitely more isekai adventure than comedy. I personly did not like the anime, i hated aqua. The books though were much better, i still hated aqua for the majority of the books. The stroy had a really good ending, i mean they go fight the demon king and everything which just seemed so impossible to begin with
i still hated aqua for the majority of the books.
I'm not surprised - a lot of people hate Aqua. She's whiny, entitled, and she's always finding a way to fuck it up. I like her as a character doing a role in a story, but as a person (or god, whatever) I'd probably stay away from her.
About the anime being "more comedy than isekai": at least for me comedic value and "isekainess" are completely orthogonal. Even if both are used to define genres, one is primarily about the target reaction on the audience (to make them laugh), another about the setting (another world than the one that the protag is from).
My comment about the anime being more comedy was a direct comparison to the books which are more of an adventure story instead of a comedy one. I just used isekai as an adjective where i shouldn't have, which i could have been put better, sorry.
About our dear goddess Aqua, shes bad in the anime but her action come off as less serious. In the books a lot of the time it is clear she is purposely being a huge bitch and pain in the ass for no reason other then to be passively malicious. She definitely has some good moments, which she ruins every single time. Good read, waaay better then i first thought from my impressions of the anime.

It's a reployer from the hit game prey
I've seen her doing lots of wholesome stuff online, but I don't know the character
Charmander
You caught the corner of my Hi-Fi Rush and Crown ☺️
Also made the Keyblade on the second half of the canvas.
why is there a russian flag
Could be an attempted Slovakian flag.
Looks like Minecraft but since you are posting it in the time of that current places / flags fashion trend, it is probably something out of that subculture.
... what?
Impressively incorrect. Do you just think all video games are called Minecraft or something? And flags aren't a subculture nor are they some kind of tend that's going around.
I dont remember seeing it, but i have only played minecraft 9 days since 27th of march so i may just not know it well enough
