The new girl blushes when seeing Cid covered in blood…
I wonder why the Shadow Girls including Alpha don't wear their masks. Doesn't it reveal their identity?
The locket was from Millia(the Cult member’s daughter in ep 2) 😥. I just realized maybe Sid took the locket just for money lol
Alexia’s dere side is a sight to behold but of course it’s still nothing to ATOMIC
Aside from "I AM ATOMIC", “Let the meaning of Almighty be carved into your soul” is also damn cool

"I... am... Atomic." As cringe as the line is, listening to that with headphones on with full blast volume gave me a boner goosebumps.

same I also got gooseboners

you could also call it bonerbumps coz boners are literally big bumps

You should go see a doctor if you're suffering from bonerbumps.

A quick nut will do the job

Ya know that princess sister is kinda hot even though she's kinda scary a little

I don't mind being her dog boyfriend

Bro I get shivers down to mah BALLS every time with that line

Boners are just a big bump but inside out makeing it so your pеnis grows a lot bigger and feels like a bone inside

Don't hide your true feelings. Just say boner.

Well that Zeno guy was hiding that yes actually the evil guy who was funding that guys research they're both dead now

Japanese speaker: Says some English words.
English speaker: "That's cringe bruh."

English speaker: Says some Japanese words.
Japanese speaker: "Nihongo jouzu!" *clapping*

Yeah, I was also listening with headphones and the sound effect when saying atomic was awesome!

I mean an english speaker could say that line and it'd still be cringe.

You haven't seen cringe until you're in a room full of Japanese acting students and the teacher asks you to say all your lines in English. It makes it ironic if you have a "translator" who forgets his lines and you whisper it in Japanese.

I don't find his lines cringe, but maybe his melodramatic persona.

that was their point.... its cringe to be literal. Yet every japanese named move sounds cool to english ears because we dont realize it's fucking literal. In sort, you calling it cringe makes you a jackass.

I read the LN, his personality is the epitome of cringe btw. I mean, he started this shadow garden thing cuz he wanted to act like "the man behind the scenes". It's the whole premise of this anime/story

I know. But tell me how saying "I am Atomic" is cringe. When superheroes go "I am ...", I don't hear anybody saying it's cringe.

"I AM ACTIONMAN" my head went

well in those heroes life real sacrifice and blood sweat and tears are formed unlike superficial bonds here in kage no yuusha RESPONSIBILITIES ARE EVEN TACKLED IN VAMPIRE JUUJI KAI UNLIKE shadow garden when they easily exposed themselves in ep 5 compared to how stella hide the fact she was Maria saberhagen's daughter to prevent strauss from having complications with his duty as a vampire king.

Better.

"Nihongo jouzu" is often used sarcastically by the Japs.

I'd say they're more used as words of encouragement since they're usually happy that foreigners are making an effort to learn their language.

Please avoid calling Japanese people "Japs". If you want to, use "Nihonjin", though not as many people here will know that word.

What’s wrong with japs? It’s perfectly fine.

If you have to ask that, you may as well ask what's wrong with calling African descent nig*ers, or Chinese people chinks. I haven’t been called gook before but I know I’d prefer not to.

That’s stupid, n word was used to describe or to call at slaves, chi*k is obviously derogatory, referring to their eyes. g**k is definitely a racial slur, it’s literally a different word.
But what about Slav? Is that a slur? How bout Turk? How about the word Jew? That can be used to offend as well, doesn’t change the fact that the word is not a slur.
Now let’s focus on these words: Jap-anese
Jew-ish Turk-ish. You guys have really been brainwashed🙃

it’s literally a different word
Speaking of stupid... It's not how different a word is, it's how particular communities take it.
I mean, what makes chi*ks "obviously" derogatory? Following your logic, the first four letters are the same as Chinese, just like what you're saying Jap is for Japanese.
Whether or not I've been brainwashed, you need to sort out your logic in this. You can even Google the word and it'll say Jap is derogatory.

“It’s how different communities take it”
there you go with that same pronoun ideology. What is a woman? “It depends on who you’re asking” bull crap
What is derogatory? “It depends on the community”
Yeah that’s not gonna work. The Japanese have plenty of words for Americans in Japan that aren’t very nice and I guarantee Japanese grandma and grandpas have all called us names but nobody is calling them out for it. Yes our grandparents called them japs, because it was short for Japanese. I’m sure the cultural issue was the ww2 movies would refer to them as japs and left a bad taste in their mouths. Hispanics also call whites loco gringos but I’ve never heard whites complain. Now the N word, well that was a master slave thing that is full of a horrible past, you can’t even compare

If anything, foreigners have been calling Japanese out for calling them gaijin for years. They've already changed to gaikokujin not long ago, which is longer, but they changed it at least. Maybe some elderly will say gaijin here and there, but in my experience after 4 years, it's pretty hard to find someone saying gaijin instead.

Chi*k not the same word idiot, it’s a completely different word, the first three letters might be the same but it ends in nk and the word has a different meaning used to make fun of their eyes. Jap is the first three letters of Jap-anese just like Jew-ish or Turk-ish, so is Jew derogatory. Answer the question?

How effin stupid and brainwashed are you to think because google says it’s racist it means it’s racist. Literally proving my point. “Google Says it’s racist” says the sheep 🐑

I didn't say racist, I said derogatory. It's racist if you're using a derogatory word antagonistically. I already knew that it was before I saw it on Google since a half Japanese friend told me years ago. Should I also stop listening to someone a part of that community? And if Google isn't enough, go look on any dictionary site. I guarantee they all say the same. And if you're online, you would've used Google or another search engine at some point, just like the rest of us "sheep", so don't pretend you're not one.
Just because Jewish don't find Jews offensive doesn't mean Japanese are going to agree with Japs as well. I know full well where people get Japs from but that's why I said it's also how a community takes it. It's like shortening someone's name to call them that when you know not everybody likes that.

Everybody is a sheep in some way as well. Otherwise stop doing things like going online and "live off the grid". You don't know me so stop pretending like you do with the name calling. If this is how you treat strangers, you need to be educated on social manners, even if it's online.

You missed the whole point with Jews. The word Jew cAn be offensive, it depends how you use it. The actual word Jap is not offensive, what is offensive is the way it was used during ww2, specifically in ww2 MOVIES and news papers circa 1940’s-1960’ really used the word to refer as the enemy or the “Japs” but there isn’t a racially charged meaning behind the word. It just literally an abbreviation for Japanese. This is in comparison to the word ch*nk which is racially charged ex: “ch*nk eyed. I get why Japanese people might be offended, but the truth is it’s mainly American or Japanese Americans who are offended which is really hypocritical because we all participate unknowingly in racial acts whether we like it or not. For example, How many Japanese Americans supported the wall? There is many examples, but as for gaijin word, i could care less if they call me that. Doesn’t bother me because I’m not a racist constantly looking to penalize others for the mistakes of our ancestors.

That’s stupid, n word was used to call at slaves, chinks is derogatory, referring to their eyes. Now gook is definitely a racial slur, it’s literally a different word. But what about Slav? Is that a slur? How bout Turk? How about if I said, “your such a Jew” to a Jewish person? What if I said, “you’re such a Jew” to a non Jewish person. Does that change the word? Does the word Jew become offensive?
Now let’s focus on these words: Jap-anese
Jew-ish Turk-ish. You guys have really been brainwashed🙃

Honestly Bro this whole thread is stupid im half japanese half british and my family in japan use japs all the time it is literally not a slur xD, why is everyone getting so pressed for no reason, i swear everyone is so soft these days.

That's what I'm saying, preach!

You are justifying racial slurs. If you think the n word is the only racial slur, then you are just racist.

Japs is short for Japanese, its nothing like the N word you idiot. It’s literally the first three letters of the same word. it’s like saying slovs or Czechs, polaks, or salvis., I’m racist? Dude you don’t know the first thing about racism. I swear, I dunno if it’s your soft minded generation but people like you have ruined society. You are just Way too sensitive dude, I’m sure you’re also one of those they/them pronoun tards

I’m personally not offended but don’t want to see it being casually thrown around

Pronouns are stupid bro. I think you’re a bit confused. I’m not saying it’s on the same level of importance as the n word but it’s still considered a racial slur. Saying it’s not a racial slur and that it’s ruining society just shows how ignorant you are.

I don’t know about racism? Being Japanese living in a western country with the daily racism I have to deal with tells me otherwise.

Lol, it’s not a racial slur, it’s Japs as In Japanese, just like they say Turks as in Turkish, or slavs As in Slavic. If your offended by the word jap then you don’t know a thing about racism. What ever you think you know, you don’t. out in America your culture is cherished and your people are well respected. The term “japs” was used well before ww2, and it was only used to describe Japanese. Next you’re going to tell me being called a Jew is derogatory.

What so you have to be racially profiled by police to say you’ve experienced racism? How about being assaulted in the street for apparently being the cause of covid, or not being allowed to enter stores which I’ve experienced? You still going to tell me I don’t know about racism? What you’ve done is you’ve shown you’re ignorant af when it comes to racism

Lol, that’s stupid. Nobody in America is not letting you in a store, and nobody thinks Japanese started covid. That’s all ccp propaganda. Gtfout

I've directly experienced what I mentioned and these things happen more often than you think. You're so disconnected from reality its actually funny. You should read the news more if you're that unaware.

Please do tell. What city in America do you live where you weren’t allowed to enter for Being Asian? Lol. This is America, so unless you’re living in the Deep South, your full of it. You can sue here for that kinda stuff. And that Asian hate was mainly ccp propaganda brought by the New York Times who supports the ccp. There was like a month where Chinese people might of been stared at but that’s about it. A handful of altercations at most. Compare that to constantly being profiled, a freaking wall built to keep your people out, being choked to death by police(which one was Asian) common dude just stop

Its like talking to a brick wall. Have a good one

The way he said that in English and the whisper on Atomic was kinda cool didn't get a boner tho
