    "Life is all about challenges. There’s no point in living if there’s no one strong to play; It’s better if I can’t win." - Taiga Kagami from Kuroko no Basuke


    Kuroko no Basuke is the best basketball manga that I have read. I like the concept of its story wherein it showed a former Junior High team getting separated from each other, but they become closer and remember the times they've had through basketball. The main character, Kuroko, is definitely not the flashy type; he's even not noticeable. His teamwork with the deuteragonist, Kagami, allows for better story telling, as they both have goals they want to achieve, and they achieve it by working with each other. The basketball scenes were also great, considering that all of the former mates of Kuroko have special abilities; I like the way that each fight with another team shows different strategies and is simply not a one sided battle. I also like the relationship of Kuroko, and his former mates, and the ending of it all was definitely the best. Overall, this manga is a good read/ watch if anime, not only for basketball fans, but for anyone who doesn't know it much. (I learned about basketball's rules because of this)

      Agreed! Loved both the manga and the anime. Funny enough, it inspired me to practice basketball again (specifically Midorima's long distance 3-point shot lol). How many of those shots did I score, you ask? ...3% lol

      @ProjectIceman Midorima's 3 Point Shot is quite hard to do. If only people had that special ability....

       

      @Another Retired Shipper Yeah. I have read Haikyuu but I haven't read the latest 20+ chapters yet. Will get back to it if I can

    The male cast of Rejuvenation is smaller, but there are some possible shippings: Adam x MC, Kanon x MC, Eric x MC, Florin x MC, Texen x MC, Spector x MC, Crawli x MC. The canon shipping for a female MC would be Ren x MC.

    Romance / school mangas seems to follow this pattern: 

    - 1st year: The distance between the main characters closes, then opens, the closes and they begin to date

    - 2nd year: The couple faces difficulties, but they solve it by remembering their love for each other

    - 3rd year: They decide on their career paths, and support each other

     

    This is present in quite a few of the romance/school life extensive mangas, and I like the way this is portrayed.

      you forget the nearly always prevalent transfer student that nudges the plot

      @DemICE Yeah, that one. The transfer student can either enter in the middle of the first year of in the beginning of the second year. They can be potential lovers (but get rejected anyway) or become friends with the characters. In either way, they help progress the relationship of the main couple.

    There are a lot of females in the Rejuvenation cast. We can have Amber x MC, Venam x MC, Aelita x MC, Erin x MC, Amelia x MC, Flora x MC, Krystal x MC, Nim x MC, and even Angie x MC. Melia x MC seems to be the canon shipping though.

    In canon games, Garchomp takes neutral damage from Water and Grass due to its Dragon Typing. In the Glitch Field, it gets an additional neutrality due to Fairy Type being converted to Normal Type (due to it not existing in Gen1). This makes it clear that it doesn't have much trouble dealing with these types. That leaves Dragon and Ice as its weaknesses, although Ice is the better choice obviously. You can choose to train many of the Ice Type mons in the Ametrine area. Just check there for a good 'mon. If that mon can't bear any of Garchomp's moves, you may choose to use a Focus Sash if you have one. Meanwhile, I think Frost Breath works; sure it has lower accuracy, but it has a hit crit chance. A tip: buy cotton candies (revives) to help you with her battle or ultra potions.

    "Pleased to be acquainted with you, Shelly." Frederick replies to the cadet before him. "I am a cadet from the First Academy, which I attended with Mr. Radovan here." "Tell a bit about myself..." Frederick's cheeks turn a little bit red as he says this statement. Apparently, he is not used to answering this kind of question. He tries to regain his composure, however, and begins to share a bit about himself. "Erm- how do I begin this? I decided to be a cadet because I wanted to see the many Nexuses in this universe. I wish to explore the land, and to bask in the great wonders of our world. Yes, I do admit that that seems to be an eccentric reason, but this has been my dream since I was a child. I would also like to meet different pokemon along this journey, and I have Theodore, my Stufful companion, to thank for my appreciation of pokemon. It is my earnest wish to accomplish these dreams of mine with all of you. That is what I can say."

      No, the last few I used were all Fates based. But don't worry, I have a few plans ready for my next one...

    Frederick sees that the other cadets have already arrived. He approaches them and reintroduces himself, "A pleasant day to you. I am Frederick Lennon, a fellow cadet and I will be working with you from here on. I am glad to meet you all." Frederick does a short bow, and extends his hand to the other cadets. "If you have anything you would like to ask, please do. I will try my best to answer it." Frederick tells them with a refreshing smile on his face.

    "There is no good and evil, there is only power, and those too weak to seek it." - Professor Quirrell from Harry Potter and the Sorceror's Stone


    Harry Potter and the Sorceror's Stone is the first part of the Harry Potter series. This novel was a great start for the series and opened up a lot of possibilities for the next installments. As everyone knows, the main character is Harry Potter, who's considered as really special because of being a survivor of He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named's (Lord Voldemort's) Attack when he was still a baby. This focuses on his education as a Wizard in the prestigious Hogwarts Academy, as he interacts with his soon to be best friends Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger. Of course, his life would truly not be a mundane one, as he is caught up with Lord Voldemort and his evil plans. Still, he manages to conquer the challenges presented before him, with the help of his friends, and they manage to clear the First Year of their education in Hogwarts with colors. I loved this book's lightheartedness as a first book and it's continuous entertainment with the different parts of the book, and I especially loved the last areas, involving the Sorceror's Stone and Harry's encounter with Voldemort in that scene.

    I'm currently reading Kimi ni Todoke, and I find it be quite sweet, refreshing, and romantic. This is one of the reasons why I like romance/school life manga. <3

    Poor Victoria, Cain, Fern, ZEL, and Florinia. And mono bug saves the day! I hope you get Larvesta for the mystery egg.

    Plus points for making your response both the answer and the next question. and the answer to that is YES To answer Jinan's question, I wouldn't want to restart my life if I had the opportunity. I value my experiences that I've had with my friends, family, and peers, and I wouldn't give that up for anything even if it meant that restarting would give me a much better life than I have now. I choose to value what I have right now and make use of it, rather than look for what is not mine and be desperate about it. Live life to the fullest! Do you wish to relive certain memories in your life?

    This looks cool and smart. I'm considering using it if I ever go laddering at some point.

    If I were to be perfectly honest, I would say I do believe in luck or chance. I believe in it because of the concept of probability wherein there is a percentage of something happening and at times, this is uncontrollable as it will flow irregardless of an action. I try my best to anchor myself on actions that will yield me the great probability of success and benefit, and at times, I get what I want due to luck. Are you in a romantic relationship right now?
  20. Daniel Blackworth
    If I remember correctly, you can't always get it on the first pillar since the one that makes the lave flow is randomized. You might want to try smashing all pillars until the lava flows. Edit: Not sure about this, Amine could be right. Haven't played in a while

    Lol. Serious humor works as well I like cats because of their cute appearance and their cute actions, I suppose. I'm also kinda prejudiced since I had some rather uninteresting incidents with dogs in the past, and since then, I've grown to dislike them. Do you play competitive pokemon?

    So, this is the Kalva whom Gina ran off to for. He seems to be a good person, Frederick offers his hand to Kalva and grins at him, "I am glad to meet you, Kalva. I hope we can become friends." Frederick turns to Radovan, who seemed to be doing an imitation of a snobby rich male, "I am not really sure what you mean, Radovan, but I am pleased to meet ypu formally as we have not been well acquainted in the Academy."
  23. Daniel Blackworth
    Frederick is taken aback by Radovan's sudden tight hug and it takes him a bit of time before he recovers from it. After he does recover from it, he looks to Radovan and says, "Thank you Radovan for that warm welcome. We have not been really close in the First Academy, but I hope to work well with you." "Greetings to all of you, my fellow cadets! I am Frederick Lennon, and I am here both as a member of the rescue party and as a part of your group." Frederick Lennon motions to the front of the three cadets who were now with him, and bows as he introduces himself. "I am pleased to meet you all formally." Frederick straightens up himself and continues to speak with a pleasant smile on his face. "We are going to be working with each other in the coming days, weeks, months, or even years, so I would like to know you better and I hope to start by learning your names. If you have any questions that you would like to ask of me, I am open to answer them."
