Here it is, now viewers can click to support the official unofficial release.

Episode 100 of Flawed Almighty was great. Twisted on Jeonji's Guardian Angel was done well spoilers:

Shinyang is actually a human who died in a car crash, because of Jeonji's reckless driving and not taking into account the people around him while he was speeding on his motorcycle.

It honestly makes you wonder if it was always intentional at this point.

This seems a tad specific and snotty. ^_^

Sharp, just because I know you’re interested in the character, this is Carlos on Manah Razz in a Circle of Bards in the Anima International Discord Server last night:

Well, that's highly interesting! Is the Circle of Bards in a file, or just in the discord?

I get where he's coming from with Manah. I also am somewhat of a fan of the whole 'Erebus =//= all dark and scary' because of the 'magic and dreams' link. It all makes sense for the character and for Erebus.

.....

Sadly, Manah is pretty established in personality in my world, so I won't be using this, but still, very interesting. Thanks for the heads up!

Dandadan: spoilers:

I love these moments of downtime with the crew. Poor Okarun's officially done with this crap and I'd be too if crazy grannies were making a painful sport out of giving my balls back. And it's good that Vamola can properly communicate with the others now, though Turbo Granny is determined to corrupt her with her "lessons" on vocabulary. Meanwhile, Saint Germaine is already pulling some reality-altering crap by opening the Gates of Hell sculpture, brainwashing the school staff so that he can register as a teacher and is going to be the head of the heroes' new occult club. Geez Tatsu, you just introduced the main antagonist in the last chapter and you're not wasting any time by having him come after the group, are you?

Manga never lets up, does it? Hence the name, I suspect. ^_^

There’s a file.

I assumed as much about Manah in your campaign, but I thought I’d mention it.

And yeah, I don’t think Erebus is all evil. In fact most of the Shajads aren’t evil. Only Drooling Loon Zemial and Poseur Evil Abaddon. The rest are pretty chill.

There’s probably two Beryls that are worse than Eriol, Jedah, Noah, Meseguis and Erebus.

Edamiel is just as world-destroyery as Zemial, just with hookers and meth. And Barakiel’s not as dangerous, but she’s a narcissistic sociopath.

well "lords of ragnarok" might turn into the biggest lemon in board gaming.

based on what i've heard, the game has 3 win conditions: 1) control all the temples. 2) control 3 lands (which is about half the game board). and 3) kill loki. and according to the reviewer, killing loki is damn near impossible. even when he cheated and maxed out his character, it was still impossible to kill him. and then there's the fact that the game has something of a timer mechanic where once certain conditions are met, the game just.........ends and no one wins.

so the creators of the game, either on purpose or by accident, made a game that no one can win.

HUGE thanks. ^_^

I assumed as much about Manah in your campaign, but I thought I’d mention it.

Oh, it's still really interesting, and thank you for that! ^_^ I'm just already pretty deep into Manah's personality and such in my own game, so changing it to this would be...weird.

And yeah, I don’t think Erebus is all evil. In fact most of the Shajads aren’t evil. Only Drooling Loon Zemial and Poseur Evil Abaddon. The rest are pretty chill.

Truth (and is it wrong that my two favourites out of the Beryls and Shajads are Meseguis and Erebus? Jedah coming in, like, second to them?). Shajads are just...more interesting in general. ^_^ Also, I like your description of Edamiel. Barakiel...Barakiel is what people expect JEDAH to be, and nope, Jedah isn't that. Amusing.

And Azrael is a massive hypocrite. Good and Justice? Look at what she did to Ilumina. That's massively effed-up - like, not punishment, but torture - and all because Ilumina fell in love. When my players found out about that, there was a general repudiation of Azrael, one player even dumping their Elan of 50 something on the spot (played for two+ years on that character, built up their Elan, and then asked if they could lose it all by choice. I said yes - why not? - and they told me after 'I felt so betrayed when I learned that'). Toss on top of that 'if you collaborate with a being of Darkness in ANY way - like, some quiet Lord of Darkness somewhere wants to stop a tragedy from happening, you and them stop it', then hey, -2 Elan!

Basically when one digs a little it seems that Azrael is more about 'fighting and killing darkness, whatever kind of darkness that is' over 'good and justice.'
