I kinda wanna do one of those "several versions of yourself isekaied at the same time" type story because they seem so fun in how they, you know, overlap each other's advantages and disadvantages together for a common goal, which is so neat

I found two of these "disgustingly hypocritical, betraying family and friends" type male protagonists, in Wuxia, like Yi Xiaochuan and Linghu Chong, but you know, even so, they're not as bad as the "oblivious yet maintaining a harem with only redeeming quality being seemingly kind" type in manga, you know, like DXD or Strike the Blood...
... so many unsatisfactory protagonists
Apparently, there's a saying that "Wuxia cannot be without Mrs Guo (Huang Rong), just like the West cannot be without Jerusalem, and 3D cannot be without Tifa, and Japan cannot be without AV"
If you think about it, if you have the power to phase through things, hide in shadows, invisibility, then you could act like a ghost
A nickname for ghosts is "a piao", you know the "a" is what's put on most nicknames, just like how "-chan" is used in japanese, but the "piao" is "floating", so it's sort of like when you say "oh, and there's an a piao", it's like you're saying "oh, and there's a floatie" or something like that, but it's never really translated well directly, it's hard to find an equivalent

Hey waiter,
you gave me mild depression
but I wanted spicy depression.
Maomao?
So Momonga is called Gu (Bone) Aotian, and Rimuru is called Ri Aotian, and Kumoko is called Zhu (Spider) Aotian apparently
in truth, Daluo Jinxian is just something made up by people on the internet trying to do power levels, they're just orthodox immortals, whereas Taiyi Jinxian are just unorthodox, and Dajue Jinxian are buddhist, and they're all just kinda parallel in power in mythology
"women will only affect the speed at which I draw my blade, but a rich loli will change it to be a better blade"
"nine out of ten lolis are rich, and one is especially rich"
"lolis have three good qualities in common: soft voice, soft body, and easy to push down"
However, "Demeter" isn't as good as "Ceres", after all, one sounds like "the meter", and that doesn't sound like a good thing at all, and the other sounds like a cute girl, despite her being a mommy milky
Demeter > Hestia
I don't understand why everyone says "Fuck irodori and fakku" but the nature of humanity is to repeat what other people say, so I'll say it too
you can check out the series 猎冰, which is more breaking bad than breaking bad
mainly because apparently the protagonist is based off of a real person, like that dude actually exists apparently
madara's fire extinguish whatever giant wave jutsu seems deadly, but it's a momentary thing, because you know, it's just a spray of fire, right, but if it was like, water or earth, I think that would be far more devastating, I mean, like, even after the move is used, you'd still have your 200 meter wide 50 meter tall tsunami wave fucking over everything
the best way to prepare a Gardevoir for those beauty contests is to feed her papaya and massage her chest
For example, there was that one tribulation where an arhat went to test a meritorious king, but he kept taking the donations from people who needed it, so the king tossed him out and soaked him in a river for 3 days, so the arhat sent a famine to the kingdom, and his pet lion went and killed the king, transformed into the king, and fucked the king's wife while the king's corpse soaked in a pond for 3 years
If you think about it, Journey to the West is kinda like Grimm's fairy tales, you know, with how brutal and bloody the originals are compared to adaptions
I mean, that wasn't the only thing censored, right?
Tripitaka got killed and eaten by Sandy nine times in nine previous reincarnations, and Sandy tied those nine skulls into a necklace around his neck, right?
But in the cartoons or the shows, you only see like, you know, beads or some shit
wtf did you know Pepper Potts' Chinese translated name is super cute? It's "小辣椒", isn't that adorable???
It's weird that it's a chinese saying that "some people are born in rome and some people never reach rome" to talk about the inequality of birth, or is there a different origin? I can't tell because I'm stupid
For some reason I don't remember seeing the parts of Journey to the West where that dude murders the dragon king of the river and then the dragon king's ghost goes and haunts li shimin to death, but people say it's there
mandela effect or censorship?
so you know the ultimate villain in stephen chow's kung fu hustle, the guy who said in the world of martial arts speed determines the winner, so anyway he does that toad kung fu, right, so apparently that's from like the sequel of the return of the condor heroes, there's a villain in there named ouyang feng, who's kinda an asshole rapist murderer good guy, anyway he uses a toad skill too
so they made a Chinese version of breaking bad and it's actually really good like it's it might not be as, you know, well acted, because it takes a lot of cues from source material, but it's more complicated and delves deeper into the south east asian trade, and it's... dirtier and grittier too
what is more interesting, someone born a psychopath, or something becoming a psychopath due to later circumstances?
It's weird that "Horcrux" is translated as "魂器", when the literal definition of the words is "soul device", which kind of makes sense but not really since whore crusts are more like soul containers or whatever, right, but you know, "魂器" is used in a lot of other medias and settings, especially the ones with soul stuff or "soul" stuff, you know the kinda fantasy magic that just gets labeled "soul" without any reason
Other people isekai to near past: "Uhh... buy some apple stock and bitcoins?"
This fucking dude: "Let's bet on them 9.0+ earthquakes killing people by shorting rubber futures."
I think what's interesting about this kind of "multiple settings SI'd at the same time by one MC" type thing is that you could, instead of a "know all" or "know none" scenario, you could have the MC be familiar with some settings, and unfamiliar with others, for example if MC only knows anime but not games, or movies and not anime, etc. in this way you can mix "invincible genre" with "exploration genre"
If you think about it, mortals being puppets of the gods is apt enough, if this world is a simulation and the ones outside determining fate are players, then the little npcs inside the simulation are puppets, or whatever
