See that's the thing - for me I don't really see much difference between those arcs and this one, other than the slight amounts of character development they gave some of the cast, because once the main harem was introduced most arcs were just reasons to show whatever new monster girl the mangaka thought up that week, maybe do a genre cliche they haven't done yet for an ark, occasionally stretch their legs and introduce a recurring cast member.
I guess I just look at this series the same way I might look at something like case closed - where I know theoretically there is development as time has passed but also never so much that I can't just pop in anywhere and figure out what's going on within two chapters. Like I never expected it to be anything it wasn't already doing so I'm not really disappointed when it's just... Staying the course, you know what I mean? Like I can't really call anything it's doing now shit because it's doing the exact same thing it's been doing since the series started the only difference is the harem is at Max capacity so now it's just window shopping instead of recruiting new girls.
Like if it was actually trying for something, like really putting in the effort so that it didn't just feel like your basic horny vanilla level fetish fuel, I might have expectations but like I said earlier it's never had any illusions about being something highbrow it's known exactly what it is and it's never tried to be anything different and something about that's respectable, that being said I completely understand if anybody would want to drop this at any point, it is just doing the bare minimum in it's comfort zone.

Well I'm not in school anymore but in regular conversation you're not really likely to use either, but if one comes up people are more likely to know what a factor is.

I believe what they were saying was just that coefficient is a big unwieldy term to be in as much dialogue as it was about to be in, so they used Factor since coefficients are just factors with fixed values. And factor is a simpler term people can more readily comprehend. Think of it like describing an advanced subject using the general terms for the general subject instead of the specific terms, because they're easier to explain.

The saddest thing is when you start reading something made for light read mode on serious read mode and it just fucks up your ability to enjoy it.

It's not really fun Anymore, it just sorta feels like bullying at this point man. At least if he got more theatric with his villainy or had any sort of rival in the other groups but as is this feels like one of those Chinese series about an overpowered dickhead slaughtering assholes for continuously strenuous reasons.

Hold up did they retcon this from last chapter to make the sword dude less responsible for this? Because now it just feels like four people had no sense of urgency in regards to saving three children's lives, like I don't know maybe if the geography of the scene was more clear it would feel more like they just physically couldn't get there in time but as is it felt like they just... took a stroll over there that took so long the vampire had time to get up there and kill them.

I mean if recorded history is anything to go by this is kind of what happened sometimes. From duels that would just stop because both sides just didn't hit s*** with their pistols so they had to talk it out, to a country's own army accidentally attacking itself, to two armies constantly tossing trash talk back and forth leading up to a battle, postering and artifice was kind of a big part of warfare for most of human history. Hell even up to world war I there was that time two armies cease-fired to celebrate Christmas. I think my favorite example of this is that one time (details I don't fully remember) a small company of people ( I want to say the Polish army?) tricked a battalion two or three times their size into surrendering by convincing them they already lost the war before they did because they just didn't want to fight anymore.

Now I don't remember this series ever being good per se... I do know that I've been reading it for years at this point and it's just kind of...I don't know... inoffensive? Like it knows what it is and it's comfortable being that and something about that makes it really readable to me, which is kind of the same way I feel about Black clover. It knows exactly what genre it's playing with and hits all the safe beats while having likable - albeit somewhat shallow - characters. Something about it's nostalgic you know, reminds me of the days back when this type of s*** was the worst ecchi got while being mainstream, hell up to this point he still hasn't had sex with anyone, and not even for a weird sad reason like rent-a-girlfriend, he just doesn't seem that interested this man just likes hanging out and seeing where stuff goes.

They describe them as "worlds" and assign "depths" to them, Additionally, each tends to have a distinct element or attribute to them- like the guy he's fighting would have a large world engulfed in violent flame, his enemy has a complex world bathed in moonlight, perhaps his is a world that contains several attributes in balance that stretch on forever as opposed to a single overwhelming one that extends to a certain depth.

How could you?...you sick fuck!
I did the same about 50 chapters ago...truly we're all sons of bitches

Like sukuna has pure hater energy, this man has pure gamer energy - like everyone else is fighting for their life and this man's just playing call of duty.

It's so funny rereading it and realizing that that man just doesn't tell anybody shit, he's like the CIA in the 60s - all business no clocks on walls.

I like that the old dude's advice is just that he should stay f***** up because we need a f***** up guy on the team.

You got to keep in mind he is still a teenager and he is still sort of figuring it out, but he's also like mildly sociopathic and has a large ego so he wants to think of himself as having already figured himself out, which is why anytime he acts on emotion he finds some way to justify it using logic - because in his mental view of himself he can do without emotion, and he's too prideful to let anybody else think otherwise for a moment (unless it benefits his ego or greater goals, then he can justify it under logic). It's like how some antisocial nerds will try to frame their lack of social skills as some kind of positive instead of just accepting that they might have a self perceived flaw

I think he's the perfect addition to this cast, everyone's out here pulling cold logical big brain moves, and then we have this f****** lunk that just bowling balls his way through people's plans and expectations strongly and with emotion. It's like how comedies need straight men, sometimes serious stories need a clown.

"John Johnson's average road trip" instead of the stands being named after music, all that music is just on his mixtape.

He's like if Deadpool had absolutely no chill... And a Stand...

You know when you describe it like that... This series is kind of like if death Note or gantz slammed into JoJo's bizarre adventure part 3 and the collision slapped all of the bizarre out of it. "Jonathan Jonathan's grounded journey" if you will.
