Helck Episode 16 Discussion

@Kimurah Yeah, how dare the special sword imbued with special powers that can cut even the mightiest magical monsters with ease, that was introduced in the very first minutes of the character wielding it, explained its status of magic antique relic as a weapon capable to kill the strongest forms of living things (exactly what a hero is) be actually something that will be used later in the story to try and stop the menace that requires exactly the described item.

I can agree with the first two points, despite they being just how a story usually flows and a bit cliche, but come on, the third one was foreshadowed both right before the flashback and in the first appeareance of Alicia. Is in no way, shape nor form an asspull.

Yeah sure buddy. Fanboys always love to ride on the writers D just because his BS writing with the least minimal details said so.

A plot device that is just "painted" as part of a character attire is far from proper introduction to something that will change the story flow, it's just as you said it lampshading, but not enough to justify why a side character had the key to change the whole story. You need a whole passage explaining how did Alicia got the sword in the first place rather than just believe "oh she had it from the beginning, there's nothing to explain" hurr durr. This situation is exactly what an asspull is. But then again, both you and that other guy that loves my D @Sigmar-Unberogen know jack shit about what constitutes as proper writing and buy whatever BS the author is selling.

Here's a good example of proper plot device introduction. In Lord of the Rings, imagine if we never saw that sequence where Bilbo Baggins hands over to Froddo the mythril armor and the mythril sword that can detect orcs. The whole audience would feel like being treated like an idiot if Froddo would have pulled his sword and told the fellowship of the ring "guys my sword is glowing, there are orcs incoming" with no previous explanation. Same thing when he was stabbed with the dark sword and the mythril armor saved him.




@Sigmar-Unberogen

Yes I got better things to do than just idle until you or any other salty fanboy will make a forum reply quoting me. Laughing and pointing out the flaws of this joke of a show is something I can make room for, giving attention to attention seekers is a different story and you need to take a turn and wait for me to feel like replying (I know you'll wait whatever it takes for my reply anyway, so why should I rush?). Also funny that you didn't address anything I mentioned in my post other than "wah wah you didn't give me proper attention to me" Then again strawmen is the only way people like you can make any kind of refutations.

@xdiesp

Whatever you say alt account. You have no leg to stand in this discussion other than just "dog pile" on me because you never had any good argument to properly defend your bullshit.

Oh please, only people you convince in this BS are your imaginary friends, a.k.a the "we" you mentioned to me in earlier reply. Imagine wasting time watching a bottom-tier Chinese cartoon (Zanting! Rang Wo Cha Gonglue) and having the audacity to claim you never had 5 minutes of free time during an entire week for a regurgitated reply like this.
This seems to be your cringe strategy to discourage people from replying to you again due to constant delays. Or, it's an even more pathetic attempt to seem more "important" than others, like saying: "unlike you lot I have better things to do in life", and then get caught watching garbage like "Dekoboko Majo no Oyako Jijou" and the Chinese one mentioned above.
Of course you'd blame the world for your idiocy and absence of basic comprehensive skills too. Typical. That's what happens when parents don't spank their kids enough; you get a narcissist with a bloated ego.

2 functioning braincells seems to have farted for the last time there. I think you've reached the pinnacle in argument articulation. Congratulations for this achievement.

@Sigmar-Unberogen

Yes, that's how I manage my time. I find some things (like creating the post for a chinese anime) more important than answer to obviously rabid and obsessed fanboys that can't take no for an answer. Now we have even stablished that you're so butthurt with my self that you needed to stalk on my forum history (how pathetic, even for you).



Blah blah blah. Keep yapping like an angry kid because someone else has different standards and doesn't rely of delusional pers to make a point. Good to know that you're like the bottom of the barrel mal users, so hung up on a fictional show that you need to act like an asshat over cheap fiction.

edit: see you next week when I'll answer your angry diatrabe. And yes, I answered this post immediately because I was still online.

@Sigmar-Unberogen



It's not about the time it took you, it could had been 2 seconds or an hour. It's the fact that you needed to check on my profile and my forum history in order to know what I was doing with my time in this board. Last time I checked the definition of stalking I don't remember either webster nor oxford definitions stating a maximum or minium required in order to be called stalking. Seriously get a life (though looking at the total number of replies that ship sailed long time ago).

Unlike you, you're so uninteresting and bland that I don't need to check up your forum history to use as some sort of evidence to build up a case (I actually don't check anyone's profile in this site for the matter)



Because sometimes I don't need to use full words? You got the message, it's more than enough. But then again your whole personality is being a Karen and if people don't do things exactly as you would then they are wrong in your very short sighted vision.



Didn't you just barked at me because I didn't use a full word, but you now are just using capital letters to do the same? Hypocrisy should be your middle name. Typical Karen.

They got an offer they couldn't refuse...
