I’ll say that it was an ass pull but at least it had some kind of explanation and an actual cost to it which fits that way the powers work in the show in general. So he basically did the reverse of what Biscuit Kruger does all the time, and had used the binding Kurapika uses to increase his power but basically at the expense of his soul. The bigger bullshit is Alluka with that plot power. But at least they were super creepy about it. Shit still creeps me out lol.
I didn’t think much of it at first for that exact reason(the way Hatsu works) but, after thinking about it for a bit, I was like “wait…this some BULLSH-.” Lol… I wanted to see him go ham without doing what he did as well, so it was pretty anticlimactic for me.
Still, this show is top tier as fuck. Got a few more episodes left until I’m done. I didn’t even know that it had the same mangaka as Yu Yu Hakusho until I saw the Puu keychain Neon had on her phone.
Two Manadarins in my city. There was this old school chinese buffet place before buffet’s hit it off as big as now, called the Rickshaw. It was the only one around, in the early 80’s and was quite the drive to get to. Place was fully decked out though, had bridges, and rivers and ponds indoors and fish in the water lol. Profound sadness when franchise buffet’s showed up and put it out of business (food was top quality, but their selection was small compared to some of the behemoths that eventually showed up). I once went there just to eat these sauteed mushrooms they made. One of my less brilliant ideas.
There is a pho place downtown owned and run by the Chinese, and it’s one of the only places I have ever dine and dashed, and more importantly, the only one I ever dine and dashed at where I didnt eat the food. They brought me out a bowl of pho, even sriracha could not save it. The meat was tough and terrible, it was like little strips of boot. The noodles were spaghetti noodles, I shit you not. Like they ran out of the proper ones, and just ran to a corner store to buy some spaghetti noodles. Broth tasted like balls. I swear, it seemed like they gave me a fuck up bowl of pho to see if white boy could notice a difference. I just pretended I couldn’t get a signal on my phone, stepped outside, and fucking booked it to a real pho restaurant.
Joe was the best in CvS2. Yeah he worked harder than the best characters to pull a win, but he had solid pokes and great RC-able moves that got him across the screen. He has the best RC taunt in the entire game.
