My POV imaginative of TOHO's monsters as part of WB and Legendary's MonsterVerse

Since Rodan, Mothra, Ghidorah, Mechagodzilla, and Merian C. Cooper's monster ape character King Kong appeared in MonsterVerse, I wonder what will the other iconic kaijus of TOHO's library will looked like in my point-of-view.

  • Gorosaurus, an abelisaurid-descent dinosaur titan
  • Titanosaurus, a spinosaurid-descent dinosaur titan
  • Kumonga, a giant arachnid titan of the Salticidae family of jumping spiders
  • Anguirus, a nodosaurid-descent dinosaur titan
  • Kamacuras, a giant orchid mantis titan
  • Manda, a legendary sea dragon titan
  • Ebirah, a giant lobster titan with its disproportionately large claw, larger than half the creature's body, similar to that of a pistol shrimp's.
  • Battra, as a male variant of Titanus Mosura
  • Gezora, a giant cephalopod titan of the Sepiidae family of cuttlefish, more resembles to its close relative, the flamboyant cuttlefish.
  • King Ceaser, a giant Panthera titan, closely related to lions
  • Baragon, a dicynodont-descent synapsid titan
  • Megalon, a giant insect titan of the rhinoceros beetle genus, Allomyrina.
  • Zilla, a dinosaur titan of unknown theropod origins
  • Varan, a giant Draco lizard titan
  • Jet Jaguar (with Pacific Rim vibes)
  • Megaguirus, a giant dragonfly titan
  • Kamoebas, a giant matamata turtle titan

As for the other TOHO monsters, I can't imagine what their MonsterVerse incarnations will look like. Decided to let you guys figure them out of their MV appearances in the comments.

  • SpaceGodzilla
  • Hedorah
  • Gigan
  • Biollante
  • Orga
  • Sanda
  • Gaira
  • Keiser Ghidorah
  • Desghidorah
  • Gabara

So, what are you guys thought of what the appearances of TOHO's other iconic monsters may looked like if they were added to WB and Legendary's MonsterVerse?

[Trading Card Games] The Time Yu-Gi-Oh's Banlist Hit Everything But The Broken Stuff

After my last post on Yu-Gi-Oh got a great response, I saw a lot of requests to do another notable bit of drama in the community. There were a lot of great suggestions, but one that came to mind as something immediately interesting was a rather similar period: a time of transition between new formats. While last time, I talked about a period of incompetence, this time, I'm going to talk about a period where it was not incompetence the community saw--rather, they saw malicious intent.

Introduction

Yu-Gi-Oh is a franchise based largely on a card game based largely on a manga. It is considered one of the top two TCGs in the world, and is noted for its extremely fast speed, its regular introduction of new mechanics, and its notoriously high level of power creep.

In 2008, Yu-Gi-Oh notably changed its rules dealing with what was at the time called the Fusion Deck. Previously, this had been simply "the place you keep your Fusion Monsters when you haven't fused something yet." Many players didn't use Fusions; the majority of them were either bad or not worth the effort of fusing to make them. It was such an underutilized mechanic that many players simply stuck a bunch of rare Fusions in there that they couldn't even play, and used them as trade fodder.

This changed with the introduction of Synchro Monsters, which were put in the Fusion Deck as well (now called the Extra Deck), but used a summoning method distinct from Fusion. Rather than being fused from two monsters and a fusion card, Synchros were made by taking a monster labeled as a Tuner and adding up its level with that of other monsters on the field, then sending them all to the Graveyard. This meant that a level 3 Tuner and a level 4 non-Tuner could simply turn into a powerful level 7 Synchro.

Synchros changed the game massively, making it much easier to get strong cards on the field and significantly speeding things up. Response at the time was mixed, but overall, it got people buying cards by the dozen and changed up how the game was played heavily. Ergo, it seemed that the game designers considered it a success, and decided to try repeating the process in 2011 with a new variety of monster: the Xyz Monsters.

What the hell is an Xyz?

Xyz (pronounced "ek-sees") were, in many respects, an attempt to answer the critiques of Synchros by creating a sim

SERIOUS: This subreddit needs to understand what a "dad joke" really means.

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.

Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.

COMPOSITE ANIMAL

"I am fond of pigs. Dogs look up to us. Cats look down on us. Pigs treat us as equals" ― Winston S. Churchill

A single entity that has all of the abilities and talents of all animals on Earth. It is as fast as the fastest animal, strong as the strongest animal, durable as the most durable animal, as smart as the smartest animal, and has tons and tons of weird minor hax abilities.

(Note: In this case, humans are not counted as animals. Animals that live underwater or are extinct will be included.)

[Online] [5e] [EST] [4pm-8pm SUN] [LGBT+ Friendly] The Terror Tale of the Frost Fiend, DM looking for a new player for a ongoing homebrew campaign!

Acc…essing… Nagabond Network… updating… rtc… boot…ing… …H-Hell… …ello? ..an you …ea… me..? Is it… wo..k…g? Ar… …e……………………….. connected?

Overly Long Campaign Introduction

β€œThere… finally! Heheheh. Congratulations, I’ve been searching for someone like you. Your Will… it shimmers brightly, that alone has allowed me to reach you. You may be wondering what this is. Well, for now, let’s start with formalities, specifically me~ You may call me… Overlord. We can worry about yours later.”

β€œThis Tale… within it, a terror has been brewing, there are 5 powerful entities who can resolve this β€œterror” and bring a happily ever after however one of the entities' power has been waning and it’s only a matter of time before they succumb to the β€œNexus”. Well, I would explain further but first perhaps I should give you some history and information of the Tale first.”

β€œThe World of Crescentshine, an archipelago made up of 7 main islands. Do you want to know how it was created? Long ago, the Ethereal Gods created 5 powerful entities known as The Greater Aether Beasts to keep the world of Crescentshine in balance. Not too long after a powerful Demi-God known as Zandersalt of Metal & Jewel emerged, creating 5 powerful weapons to slay the Greater Aether Beasts and offset the balance of the world.” "The Lunar Commander of Knights, Brillhemoth and Lunar Commander of Aircrafts, Draconox came together came together to defeat Zandersalt, splitting his body into 7 pieces and sealing them into a massive glacier adrift in an endless ocean, they gave the Weapons to the Greater Aether Beasts to keep watch over them. Eventually, Solravia, The Cosmic Nova Leviathan moved in nearby the glacier, her presence melting the glacier and Zandersalt’s limbs fell into the ocean. His limbs crystallizing and forming land masses which eventually bloomed into the Isle of Crescentshine we know today." "Hmm? Sometimes wrong? ...Heheheh, seems you noticed. How could the Greater Aether Beasts be the balance of Crescentshine, if the Isles of Crescentshine were created after Zandersalt’s defeat? What is truth? What is lie? This is why we need your Will, it and only it can unravel and confront the assertions of this world. Allow me to explain a bit more about Crescentshine."

"Each isle is ruled by almighty leaders know as Crescent Tamars who resided within each Isle’s capital. They command formidable variants of Giants and Dragons called Lunar Knights and Lunar Aircrafts. There are also the 7 Wings

Just because it's a joke, doesn't mean it's a dad joke

Alot of great jokes get posted here! However just because you have a joke, doesn't mean it's a dad joke.

THIS IS NOT ABOUT NSFW, THIS IS ABOUT LONG JOKES, BLONDE JOKES, SEXUAL JOKES, KNOCK KNOCK JOKES, POLITICAL JOKES, ETC BEING POSTED IN A DAD JOKE SUB

Try telling these sexual jokes that get posted here, to your kid and see how your spouse likes it.. if that goes well, Try telling one of your friends kid about your sex life being like Coca cola, first it was normal, than light and now zero , and see if the parents are OK with you telling their kid the "dad joke"

I'm not even referencing the NSFW, I'm saying Dad jokes are corny, and sometimes painful, not sexual

So check out r/jokes for all types of jokes

r/unclejokes for dirty jokes

r/3amjokes for real weird and alot of OC

r/cleandadjokes If your really sick of seeing not dad jokes in r/dadjokes

Punchline !

Edit: this is not a post about NSFW , This is about jokes, knock knock jokes, blonde jokes, political jokes etc being posted in a dad joke sub
