FightReadys Day Sketch #4

  Wow

  Isn't that right

  That slow release nearly killed me

  For those of you unaware, we expected to be reading ISSTH around the 7th

  Then he went down to one chapter a day and made us wait practically a week more

  Of course, that meant time kill for the rest of the time

  We read series here and there

  A few off of our read later category

  I believe Continue Online we couldn't because it got a amazon deal

  No problems with that but we do not own a credit card for the book and if we dropped it then we were stuck with a book we didn't want

  Reasons I like the library better

  Speaking of dropped books

  Don't know if you say dropped, I'd say boring

  Spectral Regalia...

  At least we finished book one, just got hit with even more fluff at the beginning of book two

  Arrayist was good though

  It was. Kudos to the author because I'm keeping my eye on it now

  If only Forgotten Conqueror got a chapter

  Dunno because the last one was so confusing and this whole book has been feeling like a letdown

  We had pegged 48 chapters be the limit like book one and said the same for Naruto

  48 chapters keeps it condensed and to be fair, shippuden could have gone with 220 episodes with a third series being used for the final arc and still got 220 episodes for that too

  There is something that speaks to use about a consistent limit that says this part of the heroes journey will not end until this point but also works as a countdown

  Just imagine knowing that in a couple more chapters something will happen that creates a gap that allows characters to grow

  Ahem, back to the stories

  Okay, though there really is only a few updates that I remember

  If we forgot any they were likely dropped

  Tried a series called Terror Infinity

  Despite our dislike of horror movies

  It began good and continued for a bit

  Then came Resident Evil:Apocalypse

  To be fair it did begin fairly well but there was something screaming don't be gantz

  While we did like what happened in Gantz after their team wipe

  We did not apreciate how overboard this one was

  Blame the continuous theme of rape being used

  While I do have to admit that it is a real thing, it is also a pretty serious thing at least to my mind

  The story had gradually used this theme to approach our boundary of what we could handle

  The one girl had her love story using it as a scar but scars can heal

  Then came clone mc and that made it seem sad and logical he went crazy

  But it also used it in a prejudice situation of two different races which was uncomfortable

  And went hardcore when out of nowhere the rest of the team was wiped and All of the girls got abused

  Even the movie characters! I mean, throughout the series the movie characters were the ones who I felt a connection to because they had no choice to be movie characters but they were practically the same as any other characters

  Some we even wanted to be used more so that we would look forward to seeing them again

  The mummy was a healer because while I was still burning from Apocalypse...

  Wait, there was something we forgot

  Oh yeah, the fact that if there was no team Devil then the characters in Apocalypse would be active allies like the mummy characters and could help them through the rest of the series

  This content has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.

  But everyone of them is dead, and I doubt there was a survivor since from the title of volume 15 shown

  It will be the first one because reset the team level and the characters used died

  So the mummy needed to heal a lot of wounds

  It was fun but there kept a sense of melencholy

  Great, Xuan returned!

  Then some more underused characters returned

  Then we had what was supposed to be our favorite movie around the corner

  Jurassic Park! We used to watch it until whatever form it was in burned out

  Then came the f@#% me part

  The Lost World? No!

  Even worse..

  It didn't even happen during the movie, it happened after!

  And it wasn't going to be dinosaurs they fought

  Bugs, why

  Side-quest needed for plot

  I would flip the table if it wasn't the thing keeping us from being the other

  A few chapters in we quit and put it on the bookshelf

  We then tried SOTR

  Bad timing

  Forgot it was invasion living

  Which means no happy moments just tension in the air

  Anytime the main character did something it was always

  There is more to come

  Maybe if it openly tried the romance plot but

  This mc and the love interest do not have the time or freedom for love, yuck

  I still don't know how I feel about this one returning to the front lines of love interests

  There is that one girl who is probably pregnant but where could she be after all of this time

  Even if she did show up, she would be a weakness that weighs him down so while she did need to leave to let the mc soar through the skies

  She will show up at some point seeing as she has his kid

  Speaking of which, how old will the mc and his kid be right now around chapter 700 because they might have to meet when the kid is old enough for the similarities to be apparent

  Sad thing is that this is a early version of the Chu Yuechan incident from ATG as even now we have no idea where she and the kid are

  While SOTR is finished in machine translation so it just depends on how far we read

  So after stopping in the story we hit youtube

  Nostalgia Critic seems fun

  There is also this song we are trying to wear out of our brains by playing it on repeat over and over again

  Not yet

  As luck would have it, if ISSTH takes a chapter a day we should still only catch up as it finishes the final chapters of the book

  As well as our usual plus one

  Because the books always end on a high note so we check the next chapter for the aftermath which ends well

  So we are at the earlys of 640 and I love how many call backs the book is giving so far

  And hope for more to come

  Will return to reading now, but one last thing

  The new anthology

  No stories yet people

  Just be aware

  It's Super-heroes and Super powers: A FightReady Anthology

  For super-hero lovers

  Try and follow that if it piques your interests

  Now then

  Fare thee well
