Whats happening to WHM <.<

The new abilities they get are completely useless and with the cross-role actions, actually taking away features from WHM.

Launch trailer is up, only nine more days!

Yeah, I've had them too, and there was a significant drop in the quality of my work. I'm falling asleep on the drive to work, I'm dropping products and they're getting easily destroyed, I start having slurred speech and sometimes I'm just speaking random gibberish. It was like a drunk was on the job. It's almost as if different people have different tolerance levels on sleep deprivation.

I had plenty of shifts where I got off at 12:30am and had to go right back in at 8am. Don't be such a bitch LOL

I already did the math, I have money in my account and I'm getting a $300 paycheck Thursday because they forgot to pay me a day from last week. What I mean by tight is that I don't have a budget for reckless spending like a stupid power cable to a console.

So money's tight and you canceled a shift? -_-

No, money is tight because Square Enix billed my collectors edition for FFXIV earlier than I was expecting so my bank account is pretty dry right now.

Did you finally get the 360 cable?

The Flood / AMA Had to call out tomorrow
« on: June 07, 2017, 12:39:25 AM »
I was stupid and picked up a morning shift for tomorrow starting at 7am when my sleep schedule for the past half-year has me going to bed at around 2-3am. I already submitted my call-out online so now I don't have to spend the next few hours staring at the ceiling in frustration....

Verb has the right idea, along with other things. If it's just a one time thing, it's no big deal, but when it consecutively keeps happening, it can really weigh a person down and have them wondering if there's something seriously wrong with them.

and share it with anyone else who may want it—but no one wants it, and that's kind of a crushing feeling

They got enough development for their role in the show.

Also not giving everyone huge levels of character building =/= bad storytelling.

Spoiler
you said everyone gets development in part 2

i'm posting people who don't

also the big 3 are all shit so him being slightly less shitty than another author doesn't make his bad story telling ok

Huh, I'm already subbed to CR. Completely forgot it was on there, too busy watching Mischievous Kiss on there.

you could also just sub to cr for a couple months and watch it all

How often do you see these characters in comparison to others? Shino might not get a whole heck of a lot of development but he doesn't appear a whole heck of a lot either. He's not forgotten about because you can clearly see him from time to time in Part 2, but he wont get much in the way of development because there's not much he can contribute to. I'm not saying Kishi is perfect with his character fluff, but he's significantly better than another Big Three manga creator who introduces four new characters in one page with names and personalities only to completely kill them off a few pages later, or completely forgets the name of a supposedly powerful character because he went so long without adding him in the story.

Spoiler
off the top of my head
shino
kiba
tenten
lee and neji also go for long periods of time without being relevant to anything, iirc neji only comes back at the end to generate some cheap feels
the extent of kurenais development is that she gets preggers
gai is a meme
asuma only gets development right before he dies as a cheap way to generate feels

72 volumes takes up A LOT of space. And looking on Amazon right now, getting all three box sets new would round up to about $350. Worth it considering how much I like the story, and less expensive/a hassle than buying the DVDs/BDs for the anime since those con you on price for content.

that was fucking dumb of you, because now you need to spend like 500 bucks to get them all again

or just got to your local library

why would you buy it again

There's one particular filler though you have to watch because they shoehorned part of the legitimate plot into it.

can't skip shippuden, it's part of the series

i'll just be skipping the filler

What like the cloud team? They were created to fill character spots in the final Shinobi War because the rest of the main cast were already spread out, of course they weren't going to get development. Killer Bee is introduced somewhat late but he still gets appropriate development.

that's 3 people for 1 arc

there are dozens of characters that get introduced and forgotten about

You're still not at the part LC just described then because it's a major plot point for an important fight in the upcoming episodes.

60, like the thread says.

orochimaru disguises himself as some chick in the forest like 20 episodes back. that's who i was confusing him with.

Wait, what episode are you actually on? Because you shouldn't be at that part.

oh yeah, that's right. i was confusing her with someone else.

Obviously they're not going to have Sasuke/Itachi levels of development but things like the Kakuzu/Hidan arc for inoshikacho was plenty.

it's almost as if it being longer doesn't mean that all of these characters get actual development

Kin? No she's just one of his "students". Orochimaru was the teacher.

i thought that she turned out to just be orochimaru?

I had all 72 volumes before I donated them to the local library because I didn't have the space for them at the time.

look at ian coming in here, pretending like he's some naruto expert. you'd think he'd have some naruto username or something.

Episode 59 of the series is like the tip of the iceberg.

no i'm aware that there's more later, but you said at this current point, and i don't think that's true

Not in Part 1 maybe, but everyone gets plenty of development in Part 2.

i actually don't think there are. the only other 3 i can think of don't get much screen time.
