Kariya, Aichi Puns

The third clan in a role where I put an end to a nation, I'll be looking at the second to last clan introduced to the game, Link Joker. Prior to G, most of the players that used the clan were either evil, or under the possession of the reverse. For this reason, I will still count them as using the clan. Now to the clan.

Link Joker, the weapon of the void. The clan utilises two different styles of manipulating the opponent's units. They can either lock the rearguard out of existence, making them useless until the end phase. Or delete the vanguard, leaving the player without an avatar to lead their units. These are their players.

9. Sugiru Kariya

The most replaceable member of Team Demise, and leader of Demise Neo. He was the first person to play Star-Vader without facial tattoos. His ace unit at the time was Star-vader, Dark Zodiac, a name that will come up again later.

What I liked: It's cool to see Star-Vaders again and in a more positive light, for the time being. He uses the clan fairly well, even using Zodiac's skill outside of legion which was clever.

Why he's low: He's not really an important character, and is more of an obstacle for our many leads to over come. He's also a poundland version of Kyou being cocky before and during the game, loses and then gets sent back to bottom of the pile to be replaced. His fight is also barely shown, but because they show it he counts. Most of the fight is interrupted by Shion backstory. I like that we're getting this, but there's a time and place.

8. Suiko Tatsunagi

The oldest member of Ultrarare, and Asuka's love rival for Ren, Suiko makes her second appearance on my lists. During Link Joker she played Link Joker. She played it for one game against Ren, and used the Schwarzschild Dragon ride chain as her ace units.

What I liked: She was the only player in the series to play Link Joker that wasn't focused on using the Star-Vaders. Using the clan she puts up quite a good fight against Ren, partly due to the clan catching him off guard, but she shows experience when using these cards, so you could make the argument she used them to reverse most of the students giving her some practice.

Why she's low: She only plays the clan once, and then after her defeat by Ren she returns to her normal deck, I think. We don't actually see her play after that. Ever again. At least not inn the original continuity.

7. Raul Serra

The evil member of the knights, and the most least trustworthy guy since that bloke

Inspired by Lonely Planet, I decided to make a "Top 500" list for Japan. A bit overkill, perhaps.

A brief explanation of the methodology: the list mostly breaks up Japan into municipalities, though in some cases where different parts of the municipality are obviously separate (in the case of islands, for example), two spots in the same municipality might appear on the list separately. A few regions (consisting of multiple municipalities) are also grouped together. Either because they're an obvious region to visit (like the islands of Awaji and Shodoshima), or because I think they're particularly interesting as a whole, and worth highlighting that way (for example, the Sanriku coastline appears very high on the list, but none of the individual municipalities along the coast would merit a place in the Top 50 by themselves).

Another warning: this only includes places I've been to, so no, uh, Tokyo Disneyland.

I don't expect anyone to read the whole list, but feel free to poke at my top choices if you like. Or perhaps to get inspired... ;-)

Go post NSFW jokes somewhere else. If I can't tell my kids this joke, then it is not a DAD JOKE.

If you feel it's appropriate to share NSFW jokes with your kids, that's on you. But a real, true dad joke should work for anyone's kid.

Mods... If you exist... Please, stop this madness. Rule #6 should simply not allow NSFW or (wtf) NSFL tags. Also, remember that MINORS browse this subreddit too? Why put that in rule #6, then allow NSFW???

Please consider changing rule #6. I love this sub, but the recent influx of NSFW tagged posts that get all the upvotes, just seem wrong when there are good solid DAD jokes being overlooked because of them.

Thank you,

A Dad.

Martin Freeman, and Andy Serkis.

They also play roles in Lord of the Rings.

I guess that makes them the Tolkien white guys.

He should have a good vowel movement. His next diaper change could spell disaster though.

Making it all the way home and realizing that they forgot one of the containers:

Riceless

Without missing a beat he asks "Daddy, do you know how much room you need to grow Fungi like that?"

I did not know.

So he tells me "as Mushroom as possible!"

So proud.

That was the punchline

Feyonce

He was so brave and even tried to encourage us, the family around him, with his last breaths. He kept whispering to us to Be Positive.

He said, “Change the batteries in your hearing aid”.

She was pretty mad when I only picked seven up

So far no one has given me a straight answer.

Alzheimer, Grandma, it's Alzheimer.
