Not sure if an unpopular opinion but I like spinosaurus' current life restoration more then the previous one. It makes it different and unique from all other theropod dinosaurs. Basically a crocodile but with a sail and longer limbs.

Plus it probably was the grizzly bear of the Mesozoic but with the lifestyle of a crocodile. Mostly ate large fish but when the opportunity arrived would also prey on terrestrial animals. Like a grizzly bear too would at times wait in the riverbanks for fish and use its massive size to steal kills from other predators.

One Piece I think I like got up to episode 26. Bleach around 30ish.

Really gotta get around to rewatching those along with Naruto.

I am having this weirdest thing happening in Pokémon Sword.

Im doing Zygarde raids, and two raids later after the one I just did. I got the exact selection of Pokémon. I would up in the same choice selection spot and with the same Pokémon.( someone passed on a piloswine for tsareena before me again), and the layout of Pokémon on each route is identical except for like two of them.

I have never had that happen. If you quit mid raid, you get the exact layout for the next one. But this wasn’t what happened to me, it just repeated. Which is so weird.

One Piece is actually peak fiction and is still going strong today. It's one hell of a commitment but imo it's totally worth it.

From what I understand Naruto and Bleach are good in their earlier arcs but the writing for them gets worse as they progress

So many franchises I still gotta get around to watching tho or ones to get back to.

HunterxHunter, My Hero Academia, Gravity Falls, The Owl House, YuYu Hakusho (Kuwabawa is especially best bro and manliest character I know!), etc.

Tbf, One Piece also has its downs. After time-skip, it took until Dressrosa for story to really have some effective emotional moments and even that arc is infamous for overstaying its welcome.

Not to say it's comparable to say, Bleach because Kubo was straight up fighting with his editors in the final saga lol.

Reminder why Yusuke is best Shonen protagonist.

Yusuke: My job's done. Who cares about being the strongest. I don't want to be without Keiko.

Meanwhile...

Goku: Bye Chi-Chi. The world's saved but I'm going to go train and keep getting stronger. Thanks for putting up with this for our whole marriage.

Oh I'm not saying One Piece is flawless

I'm gonna disagree with you on saying there were no effective emotional moments before Dressrosa (although I'm currently reading that arc and it's delivering gut punch after gut punch) but I do think both Fish-Man Island and Punk Hazard are among the weakest points of the series, but to me at least they felt more like footnotes and the series didn't lose what made me fall in love with it to begin with.

This may be presumptuous since I haven't read Bleach and am not too far into Naruto, but I have heard people make that complaint about those series. I think there's a good reason why One Piece is still running while these two have been finished for years.

I know one site who does this, but any other site you noticed that has done this? And you think the director is going to have a really big impact on the game?

Just Twitter, but it's Twitter so lol.

As for what I think of the director? He's demonized by an unpleasable fanbase that's unwilling to see what potential the man had for growth and learning from prior experiences.

They're also acting like he singlehandedly made the worst Sonic games ever made, when his two games are Lost World and Forces: Lost World is an okay game that, IMO, is over-hated to death, and Forces is a mediocre game with some cool ideas that got rushed.

This is far from a scary scenario IMO and is more typical Sonic-whine posting, but that's just my take on the situation. I'm not saying this game is gonna be 10/10 best game ever, but I personally think it has a lot going for it and will at the very least be a fun time. To each their own, though. :drshrug:
