Okay, this will be my main Ask Me Anything Blog, since Curious Cat died, and I don't like Tellonym. Tumblr also is more likely than not to have at least an End of Service warning, and has an Export Feature, which matter to me.

Ask me anything within reason (stuff beyond Yu-Gi-Oh! is applicable but overly personal/private questions are likely to get ignored).

Bad faith and hostile questions get bounced or mocked.

Yes, anonymous is open for those nervous or don't want to start a Tumblr.

With all the ways Isekai authors use to make people in story discriminate against the main protagonist in some way, how come there are few, if any, that use the fact that the protagonist is normally Asian in an ancient European setting as the basis for unwarranted discrimination?

I think it simply doesn't cross their mind.

Remember, most like, writers of Isekai are from nations with basically a massive singular ethnicity there.

I think that factors in.

What would a 100% xenophobic deck have to do in order to become a top deck in the format it’s in? By 100% xenophobic, I mean that you cannot have done anything with any cards ever outside of the theme if you want to use it.

Bonkers ass effects on the level of Kewl Tune and what not.

[arkadiaasks]

How do you believe the luck granting power of Number 77 works in Zexal? Because it seems to make the holder lucky enough to make dice and potentially coin flip cards 100 percent consistent and survive risky situations but not lucky enough to make whoever the opponent faces brick, make the user stumble upon the cards needed to make the best deck possible or make the opponent brain fart whenever the holder would lose otherwise.

It's one of those like "Your luck has dramatically skyrocketed but is not absolutely 100% in your favor" things.

now that you won’t have any more anons, who were the weirdest or most annoying recurring ones?

At least for a while. I think I might open it back to Anons in a few months. Though considering Wonder Voyage is coming, I'm really hmm.

Uh.

The Anon who got Anons banned (The Pokemon Fucker) (Felt I owed them the questions, got violently upset I didn't like them using Japanese names/Romanji, kept asking really stupid minutia)

The Anon who basically said Manabu needed to die no matter what. (Japan has a different relation to its police than the US or UK)

The Anon who could not grasp the anime/manga had different rules and mechanics and settings on rarity and combos.

The Anon who could not grasp there was basically rules (either written or unwritten) that basically makes it so Crystal Beasts can't get cards to replace the first 7 Crystal Beasts that don't come with huge weird carve outs.

The Anon(s) who were weird about me liking Aoi and that she got weirdly shafted by the show despite the staff kept heavily investing in her.

This one was sure a character:

The Anon obsessed with Rian Johnson and The Last Jedi

The Anon who was clearly a pedophile about Kotori.

I did genuinely get some good Anon questions but there were Characters.

Prolly better for your mental health in the long run. Was it the Pokémon questions specifically or was that just the straw that broke the camel’s back?

Pokemon Questions and basically the shit cunt saying I owed them my time and presence and mental health because they were too much of a fucking lazy faggot to go elsewhere.

Most self entitled bullshit in the world.

Downright literal sociopathy.

[arkadiaasks]

Anon Asks turned off.

If you want to ask a question, make a Tumblr account.

Really tired of Pokemon questions.

There’s a new Star Wars movie coming out about the Mandalorian and Baby Yoda

okay.

i like baby yoda.

but abrams and solo killed the franchise's 'must watch' status for me. so probably not gonna watch it.

[arkadiaasks]

I don’t have a method to determine the creepiness of my questions and I don’t know if getting something else to do would actually decrease the flow of questions, so if you believe you’re not up to the task yourself, find another place people like me could ask the questions so you don’t have to either delete or answer them because I would rather not spend time sifting through the internet for that myself.

Don't send questions to my inbox that are weird dumb "I don't understand kid's shows because I refuse to understand or engage with basic writing logic"!

Go find anywhere else, and fuck off!

Are you stupid?!

I keep saying don't send these questions.

It's not my job to find you someone else to harass!

[arkadiaasks]

Do you think the RVT should have bothered to make better preparations in a plan that required them to keep ***18*** Pokemon (not counting Pagogo) from being knocked out? Because it seems like a bit of a fragile plan to not have every bit of preparation they could muster.

It's a kid's show.

Good Christ, don't over analyze it.

Go find a significant other to bang.

They don't want over-bloated Pokemon line-ups and some semblance of Tension.

Christ.

Stop asking weird creepy Pokemon questions.

I'm more of a Yu-Gi-Oh! and Digimon type.

[arkadiaasks]

Any idea why the Explorers/Exceed grunts have no clue as to how to deal with their own security system surrounding the core? Even if they haven’t had any actual break-ins, you would figure that a few dry runs would be done in order to let the workers get adjusted to the operation of said security system rather than being caught flat footed by it. Especially when crucial components of the security system are exposed and at risk of wild Pokemon destroying them as collateral damage when in operation.

You should ask me questions about Digimon instead that aren't a paragraph long.

Get a job or something.

[arkadiaasks]

Why did the showrunners leave the reason as purely “The Plot” instead of mentioning a token reason why the RVT couldn’t fly where they needed, such as an anti-air system that will mulch them if they tried? It only takes a few seconds of dialogue at most and they don’t even have to show the anti-air system if it couldn’t get past censors.

Because you can't go further into the final dungeon and have to land just outside of it, bruddah.

It's a stock convention.

Please shut up.

[arkadiaasks]

Which YGO characters would looksmaxx?

Kujaku Mai/Mai Valentine, with no shade thrown to her.

Also, if you enjoy shit posting, Isis/Ishizu uh seemingly got a boob job by the end of Battle City as she goes from like an A-Cup to "I have a chest like a professional stripper"

Romin from SEVENS.

Aoi digitally Looksmaxxes.

I hope I am using the context right, lmao.

[arkadiaasks]

What do you believe keeps the upgraded ship from flying right where the RVT needs to be in order to purify the core instead of having to walk the entire way through enemy infested forest? Like, even if the ship ends up damaged partway through the trek, it would still be better progress than normal and repairing it once everything is done with wouldn’t be out of the question. And that’s assuming the Explorers can damage the ship fast enough to decommission it before they get to the core.

The Plot.

[arkadiaasks]

Any notable vampires you enjoy?

Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuhhhh.

There's probably someone but noone super stands out to me.

I think Vampires are neat but none really stands out to me.

[arkadiaasks]

Are you gonna watch the new Star Wars movie?

The what?
