Anime Rival Quest (Very Meta)

Going "hey, doing this will do the exact opposite of what you want it to do" is pretty much the exact purpose of [intelligence] traits, though? Like, we're not actually the character. We don't learn real enchanting in video games to make items, we get a perk or buy a skill book or something that says we know how to make the items and then our character can make them.

So when we have a thing that says we're smart, and then we do something that isn't smart, not because we knew what we were getting into and decided to be dumb anyways, but rather because we had no possible way of knowing that it'd do the exact opposite of what we wanted it to do, even though by all rights our thing that says we're smart indicates that we would know that... It's not... fair?

I'll keep an eye out for it in the future. Rest assured that it was not my intent though. I'm just not sure how to explain the distinction.

You should also probably expand on how to gain and lose tolerance point and what asspulls are possible by number you use.

I will write up a complete guide, most likely in the morning though, since I'm off to work right now.
 
You know, justifying keeping up with the hero after her powerup shouldn't be too much trouble even though we didn't stomp her the first time like we planned to. We mostly messed around and only actually shot at her a couple of times, so as long as we visibly take the fight a lot more seriously next time we probably won't lose any Tolerance.

It's not free, but it's not going to break your bank either, and it might give you some more screen time next episode since narrative contrivance will probably have at least one or two shots of you while the heroine makes her way out.

We aren't the villain. Frankly rivalry isn't just power comparing.

With whole range and op arrogance I'll feel we could pull off a decent Gilgamesh impression.

Hey what do you guys think of this
I know our weapons a blaster but for conventional sakes I looked for a picture of a gun.

Also could some one tell me what's second and first place for the avatar vote please?

Thats actually a pretty good pic. Though it seems one is winning

Yeah I figured but if this is allowed as an option I hope to convince a few to side with. My main points being 1. The guy has a nice combo of handsome and cute to be useful on the female audience. And 2. The way he's posing with the gun can give a badass vibe to inspire the male side of the viewers.

edit: if demonos has a chance of winning and is accepted i'd vote for his pic,
- yeah, one is devilishly handsome and hard to hate due to those damn good looks, two seems to go with that painful/dark past option, and 3/4 just suck for a rival. i'm mostly voting one rather than two due to the fact that having that exterior doesn't mean that we can't have the current insane/goofy nature underneath it.

The Fight is done, you just want to get back home and pass out, let your body recover with magically assisted rest rather than your clumsy brute force healing you've been forcing through it. You can probably get some help from your magic teacher in the morning too...

- yeah, this is a point of pride, make us seem invincible and our "rival" will sooner believe it than not.

Hmm... just musing on this, but given the character traits we've seen so far, the third member of our group, if there is one, will likely be a slow-but-strong girl who's upbeat(and dumb if the hero isn't dumb. We haven't seen any her outside of combat to tell.) Since we're red, I assume the hero is blue(even tho it really ought to be the other way unless we're gonna do the Char Clone thing), so the new girl will be either yellow or green.

Definitely gonna be Green by RBG TROPE. It's probably gonna be a a friend of the heroes that either unlocks the power to defeat an enemy only there special ability can beat or they make a faustian deal to be a hero then do a heel face turn.

More screen time, gets us healed up, makes us more relatable to the audience and potential fun shenanigans with staying at the same clinic as the MC.

Honestly, not a big fan of most. There's feminine and there's unidentifiable as male.

This seems very interesting so I'm gonna hope on for the ride.
 
Have a tally, votes will be closing when I get home from work (curse my overtime, curse it) in around 3.5 hours.

Can't wait for the reviews of our episode debut and the theory videos. The fan art will take a bit along with the fanfiction when there's more of us for fans to work with.

I can't wait for the speculation.

I hope we'er voiced by Megumi Ogata.

Oh, what if we've got one of those op/ed that change as new things are revealed?! And there's been hints of us in them and then the ED suddenly just has us oh man o=o

What we've got right now is a bit of a mysterious thing going, but that's not going to keep audience interest long. Do we perpetuate the mysteriousness, potentially painting us as somewhat hostile, if decent person, or do we insert ourselves as an good-aligned independent, who is rivals with the hero because of their actions?

If we do good-aligned independence, we can still keep our mysteriousness, and get even more screen time while still making our point about the hero's actions by forcing the point in after she's suffered the consequences.
 
Hey does anyone know if the anime would be long running like sailor moon or card captor on the off chance seven wins I've got pictures of elsword at 18 that could be used after a season or two.


If it wasn't obvious he's actually a swordsman
I just really want this look to win.

Edit: we can make the heroine Aisha just replace the purple with blue.
I'm uncomfortable pushing my wants onto others this is as hard as I can try to push my agenda.
