A conversation about nothing in particular

[Monnkai]

Lol thats Probably the earliest cube game I’ve played, well maybe Nintendo as well lol but that’s where I learnt how to play Mortal Kombat lol

lol Mortal Kombat was the reason the ESRB in the states was established I believe its Pega or something in your country but anyway its like a game rating system like how they rate movies G, PG and R and such. It wasn't to big of a hit with parents lol to say the least and the media jumped all over it lol When I was younger I enjoyed the Japanese rating system as in if its not pornographic it has no rating lol. But I was an angsty teen then lol. Just a daily dose of useless info for ya lol :3

Yeah you’re on a whole different level with games lol please don’t tell me you play fortnite too? Lol

 

[Monnkai]

I really don't follow new games and that I believe is a FPS (First Person Shooter) Im really bad at those and I quite frankly dislike them save a few like Metroid Prime and Golden Eye for the N64. Im more of a retro gamer. I do get excited about new JRPGs and Zelda games though. But mostly I focus on older games. I like the Zelda games and JRPGs because your fighting evil and helping people and if your not doing that on a game I think your wasting your time lol IMO

I'll check it out when I get some free space on my phone Or just a new phone in general lol. Right now Im waiting for the last Sailor moon game im getting for the Super Famicom and its an RPG meaning there's a lot of reading! lol and since its an all japanese system i'll have to sit at my comp the whole time playing it and read the walkthrough so I actually know what there saying and what to do lol. For someone who considers themselves a causal gamer I work a little to hard sometimes lol

Well its actually fairly adult and well written most people who where kids and weren't in japan probably wouldn't know that though since it was very much censored. The original english dub (as most 90's anime) was awful! It was hard to take seriously. They since redubbed it and its more set for the teen age set as it should be. But for a show targeted at girls it sure had a lot of fighting and beat em up video games lol. I remember in the manga (Japanese comic that the anime is usually based off of) in a dream sequence Usagi's (Serena in the english dub) face melts off leaving just a creepy looking skull. It was pretty alarming to me having grown up thinking it was just a kids show lol. In pokemons first session they had a lot of questionable things to in the Japanese version.

Oh goodness lol see I didn’t even watch the Jap versions but I knew they existed because I was a Dragon Ball Z fan and it all came out here around the same time. Even Power Rangers were redubbed from Jap or Chi versions I think lol. Definitely have to be careful though of what is in those types of animes, some are just like “wow” lol.

You have to be even more careful now because some anime is worse then any R rated movie youd see in theater or anywhere on tv. But like movies there's a genre and rating for all types there are plenty of them that are made for the younger demographic rather then the older otaku perverts lol. Sometimes the line blurs but its something you kinda get used too. The same can be said for non anime cartoons now a days stuff like Rick and Morty, South Park Ect. If you want good anime and be perfectly safe I'd stick the Disney Miyasaki films like Ponyo and KiKi's Delivery Service. Honestly im so desensitized from my porn addiction that started when I was 8 nothing really surprises me anymore. Probably not a good thing. But honestly since I've became Christian anything that openly hates on God or tries to demean him (Much like Rick and Morty) I drop like a hot potato. Which I think is a step in the right direction I just got a ways to go

Agree, just being weary now - even with children’s cartoons, some are just.....”what the” moments. But glad that you are discerning the difference. Sometimes we can overlook those sorts of things and it can literally get in the way with our walks with Christ if not careful

I don’t really find these types of movies good to watch imo lol its Just my taste I guess, but it might come down to the sort of humour I prefer and don’t prefer lol.

I actually find this very tame but I'm not best judge of content considering my upbringing lol

How do people cope with death? For some it is like nothing happens at all, life goes on. For others it is crippling, debilitating. It can be many many years later and the loss of someone cherished still leaves ripples. Theres nothing I can do to lift them up... theres nothing I can do to ease their burden. Helpless is how I feel in the midst of their lamentations. Where is the Healer? Where is the Comforter? Oh that the Lord would have mercy.
