Dragon ball super episode 47

Hey so I’ve been really wanting to do something along the lines of a canon plot in the darling in the franxx universe.
I’d portray Hiro and I’d be looking for someone to write as Zerotwo. Another pairing is possible, let’s talk I’m down for whatever.
Id like for any partner of mine to be 18+ like myself, keep in mind action and romance is a big part in this story and If possible have seen the anime or read the manga.
Also to peak your interest, I was thinking we could look into what would’ve happened in the downtime and also during the many battles that aren’t seen. And that ending, we can fix that too. Im at the point where I will actually do almost any literacy level, semi-literate to novella. Im experienced well enough, but for such a popular character not many people wanna portray her, alas I’m here for a roleplay I’ve been looking to do for the past 3 years.
The details of the plot can be looked over. It can start from episode 1/chapter 1 or we can start somewhere after they ride together and start living together. I really want to have a long term, amazing experience. One that would have us feeling content with how darling in the franxx could’ve went. It would be super involved with their interactions, every one. It would certainly go a different direction then how it actually ended, maybe they were abandoned by APE after the battle of gran-crevasse? Who knows. Let’s talk!
I can roleplay here on chats, on discord or Instagram which I have an account dedicated to my character, hiro.

I’d like to say I’ll do my normal but I’m quite incoherent about how I watch anime I grew up watching stuff like Dragon Ball in dub and now I just watch them in dub because I’m used to the voice actors but then other stuff like Grave Of The Fireflies and Chainsaw Man I’ll watch in sub so which is best for Yasuke?

I haven't played modded Minecraft in a long time, I used to play a lot during the OG Hexxit and Tekkit days. My friends and I have a server where we have played a little bit of RLCraft recently but didn't stick with it. Friend 1 wants to be able to build locomotives and things up that alley, not super advanced technology or anything but more industrial-age crafting. Friend 2 wants to be able to do some cool magic crafting as well as dabble in industrial technology. Both of these guys like more of a challenge but RLCraft is just a little bit over the top for us. For example, walking 40 meters away from your house and getting KO'd by a dragon just sucks the fun out of it. I think they would appreciate it if it took a little bit more work to do crafting and progress, like having some extra steps or having to discover another rare biome to get the materials you need. I'm a farmer girly. I would probably play the Stardew Valley-inspired modpack given the option. I like to keep animals and would love some kind of potion-crafting mod from herbs. Or an expansion on farming that makes it more intensive or adds more crops or veers into orchard keeping. Let me know what suggestions you guys might have! I'm not opposed to kitchen-sink modpacks, I just don't want to go through the effort of setting it up if the endgame isn't well-balanced and it's made poorly.

EDIT: SOLVED!! That was fast.
In need of some super fan help! My s/o and I were watching Futurama and heard the character Mom (voiced by Tress Macneille) scream in a very specific way which caused us both to suddenly remember an episode of The Simpsons where a character screams this same way several times in a row... Sort of a "waaaah ha ha waaaah ha ha" horrified scream...
We think it was a shocked reaction, possibly a gag similar to Flanders screaming about the purple drapes...? Most likely Agnes Skinner, but also very possibly the Crazy Cat Lady... Or any other character voices by Tress at this point...
We Googled it a million different ways and watched clips for hours, to no avail... Please help us, it's driving us nuts!

Can someone please explain how this power-up actually works? I know it's the result of Dark Shenron unlocking the Warriors in Black full power, but if this is the case, why do Bardock and Gohan need to turn Super Saiyan? Wouldn't all their power already be unlocked, or does super Saiyan further boost their power (which would be kind of dumb since Dark Shenron should have drawn out all of their power already)...

So little background. I'm in my freshman year of highschool at a VERY good school. STEM based, highly ranked instructors. It's technically not a highschool but rather an academy. Super small class sizes. Less than 40 students in all 9-12. It's an accelerated school. More info on me. Im not a bad student at all. I participated in class and show teachers I know the material as much as possible. I have a great relationship with all my instructors, they all like me a lot and know I am intelligent. I am know im smart as well. I'm a talented writer and have a good ethic most of the time. I work well with others. Have plenty volunteer hours. Have impressive hobbies. I'm in multiple clubs, and am a member of our school's ASB. Along with these I have good manners and a very charming personality. Not trying to sound stuck up, I am trying my best to identify my strengths. Not to the problem. From late September to ealry January I fell into a massive depressive episode and was trying very hard not to off myself for lack of a better term. This made completely homework for homework heavy classes very difficult. I have a 504 in place if that makes a difference. Anywayz official grades haven't been released yet, but i know i have 2 As and 3 Bs. But I know fs i failed English. and i got a D in math(BOTH HOMEWORK HEAVY CLASSES). a D is the best i can get in math just because of low test score. im not as worried about that tho. What I'm really worried about is the F in English. I still need to work this out with my instructors. But the f is because of many missing or late assignments. I'm unaware if I can retake the course over the summer. Hopefully I can. My question is how much will these two low grades affect my chance of getting into a great college. My dream was potentially an Ivy league (Princeton preferably) but i don't think that's possible anymore. I don't know what my chances are at a school like Stanford. This was just freshman year SM1. I know I am a highly capable student. If I work my ass off i can maintain As and the occasional B. But how badly will these two grade effect my chance of getting into a stellar collage?
Another other advice or personal experiences would be great too!
PLEASE & THANK THANK YOU!

I agree that sibling relationships are extremely fraught and wrote this long comment to a previous post but it's too long to add. I was thinking about how the first story in the bible and quran (well not 'first' b/c it's nonlinear but chronologically) is cain and abel. I don't know if my brother 'hates' me, but he has displayed such unconscionable behavior that I've pretty much had to cut off contact at least for a while. this is after years and years of trying to follow our mom's exhortations that we must 'get along' and how that's the most important thing in her life, that we get along, and that's the one thing that she asks of us (me) blah blah blah -- finally I realized this just meant I have to sit there and take outright abuse that is completely traumatic (I'm talking him screaming at me that I 'got' cancer in order to get attention and 'win') and so I just said, fuck this.
(this only happened this year, by the way, after I finally discovered what love actually is.)
(--and even more strangely, love did enter my heart after reading the quran -- twice I had these strange episodes that resemble religious epiphanies. they both happened after reading it. the first was a truly stunning dream. the second, a few months later, was waking up with a feeling of profound calm and certainty in the fullness of god's love and a sense of astonishment at the simplicity of the classic adjuration 'love one another' -- I was like, yes, it's as simple as that, and if everyone truly did love one another, the world would be a blissful place. I typically have extremely vivid visual dreams. this was not that: I heard the phrase 'love one another' recited like a mantra. if I had told myself 15 years ago that this would happen, I would have done everything in my power to avert the mental breakdown that was ostensibly approaching; but there you go. I have zero actual connection to islam, but there are some people in my life of that faith that have been extremely important, and interestingly enough, now that I think about it, the closest experience to these two things was the feeling I had at the blue mosque in istanbul: instead of walking in like a tourist, something told me to follow the guy who was going in before me, and just do what he did -- I took off my shoes and put them next to his, and I did follow his 'steps' as I went in, and kneeled like he did. he didn't notice me. of course I couldn't say the words. there's no question about it: I was overcome with a very specific, intense, vibratory bliss. I attributed it to the incredible architecture and the stupendous engineering, and it's true that I've had kind of similar feelings in other great buildings of the world -- but not religious buildings. the great euro cathedrals, for example, even st peters in rome, didn't do this. so who knows? maybe I was moved by the imprint of the souls that have entered that place over the past four hundred years. or maybe I'm sensing a past life -- for those who believe in such things. anyway I was happy I felt this because I was tangibly injured by extremism -- I used to live a few blocks from the wtc -- and I have some other friends who effectively couldn't get past this.)
anyway my brother is just insanely jealous. I don't really know where that comes from. I think it's caused problems in his life. one time my picture was in the paper because of a book I wrote, and my mom said he called her and just had this screaming fit for like thirty minutes straight.
one strange thing is that even though we're both technically gen x, in certain ways he sort of defines a millennial or even gen z generation shift. he's extremely emotional, he's really into tv and acting, his partner is a drag queen, he loves star wars and comic books, into therapy, moved to l.a., into 'wellness' -- and it's always been like this. I was the opposite -- extremely withdrawn, very much pursuing 'high literature' and 'fine arts' and was a womanizer, moved to europe, drank a lot, lived in paris and budapest and frankfurt, did hard drugs, etc. my lifestyle has been described as "debauched." (I'm exaggerating the differences for illustrative effect. that quote is real though)
I suspect a lot of it was a super-affirmative shrink he had when he moved out to l.a. I'll never forget this time we were on the subway coming back from the brooklyn bonatical gardens with our (lesbian, in fact) aunt who was near 80 years old, and we'd been walking around for like five hours. one seat opens up and my brother's boyfriend dives for it and crosses his legs so primly I honestly thought it was a joke, and that he'd give up the seat for our aunt. but no, he really did that. even more incredibly, he opened his book as if to flash the cover, and it was one of these self help books with 'ME' in the title ('claiming the unlimited power of ME' or whatever).
so he (and they) evidently thought this was really cute and self-assured. that really made an impression -- just how different our worldviews were.
one time he told me that he believed, or 'discovered' -- and I think this was either suggested, or confirmed, by this shrink -- that in a past life (speaking of) we were not related -- but we were lovers. I score 'extremely high on openness' (lol) but this freaked me the fuck out. another time (or maybe it was the same weird-ass discussion) he said that in another life him and me and our DAD were all lovers. (wtF?)
another time he said he thought our relationship was defined by each constantly 'checking' the other (i.e. oppressing, like literally keeping the other from achieving things) so that the other's feelings weren't hurt. and this wasn't a revelation, it was like -- yeah, in a way, it's bad, in that we've been trying to prevent each other from achievement -- but it's good in that our feelings aren't hurt. this, to me, is the ultimate dysfunction. he said 'we' but he should have said 'I' b/c I've done nothing but help him -- I found him his first apartment in nyc, I got him his first job there, I gave him a ton of actual opportunities that he benefited from -- but he just can't see it that way, he can only see it as part of some eternal conflict scenario wherein if I do anything for him, it's trying to make up for some sort of past infraction, and he can't help me if I need help even if he wanted to because it 'breaks the contract.' one time we saw this movie and afterwards I asked him if he agreed with my theory. (funnily enough it was 'hannah and her sisters' and I'd noticed an odd moment of silence at the end which is unique in the director's work. during the party she's throwing for thanksgiving, mia farrow, alone in the bedroom where they're putting the coats, gazes at a picture of her and her sister, then at one of her and her husband. is this just a little cadence before the end? or are we meant to understand that the character suddenly realizes the truth: her husband fell in love w/her sister, they had the affair, and now it's over -- meaning that she's facing a choice: does she say something and forever ruin the marriage? or does she say nothing and doom herself to a kind of eternal disavowal? if it's this latter, then woody allen is a much more perceptive director than I at least ever thought he was, because he suggests the whole thing in a couple of wordless shots, not a page of dialogue.)
I thought it was an interesting point and wanted to know what my brother thought (he's extremely intelligent and I always love hearing what he has to say), but he exploded in rage, and kept saying 'that's just like you! that's just like you!' -- it turned out he thought that the only reason I brought this up was to 'show him' that I was 'smarter' -- and not just that. he seriously thought the reason I had suggested seeing the movie (I had) was that it would permit me the opportunity to raise this question at the end and 'show him up.'
'you always have to be the smarter one! you always have to be better!' he just went on and on and on and we're standing there on sixth avenue and people are wondering what the fuck is happening. I mean he's screaming his head off. it's like a cassavettes movie. I eventually calmed him down and he seemed to accept, at the end, that not only did I not express my thought for that reason, and plan the whole thing out, but that it's incredibly unlikely that anybody would ever suggest an event with this whole manipulation thing in mind.
that was the beginning of the end of our relationship, and I noticed how the society in general, as it has descended from high to mid to low trust, has become preoccupied with psy-ops and gaslighting and other kinds of emotional abuse. he was much closer to my mom than I was, and she is abusive, and depressed, and suffers from emotional problems, and she's also in a completely dysfuncitonal relationship with her sibling. I was very close to my dad, who was a writer, and although an atheist he was very open to religious and spiritual aspects of life, and he was frustrated by how my brother would try to shut him out; I think another layer to this was a dividing line my brother drew with him and our mom on one side, me and my dad on the other. but when I realized how much guilt I'd been carrying around because of all this nonsense I just cooled things down and, for the moment, out. I'm sure we'll talk again when I've regained a little of my stability, but I'm recovering from a really serious illness, and that's impossible if someone close to you calls you an 'addict' when you're on a morphine i.v. getting your hip replaced, and literally says 'oh, so now that you've got cancer everybody has to do what you want!' -- I mean this stuff is just fucking ridiculous now that I look at it, typed out. it's amazing how I've been keeping myself from recognizing this. I don't know if the o.p. is in any kind of analogous situation (hopefully not) but I think that sibling relationships are indeed fraught, they must be the first story of the abrahamic tradition for a reason, and if abuse starts to tangibly detract from one's life and one's ability to love (which I'm now realizing is the most important thing there is) one will have to cool it.

I’m just noticing that Jokic is not as good of a playoff scorer as we may think he is. For the most part he spams the post up. According to one article, Jokic accounts for “an absurd 4.7 percent of leaguewide post-ups on his own. Only four teams, excluding the Denver Nuggets themselves, have posted up more than Jokić on his own this season.” This made me think that a strategy like this would affect him come playoff time, and sure enough, it has. Check out these facts from his 4 playoff appearances:
2019 - In the first round the nuggets play the trailblazers and Jokic is guarded by Lamarcus Aldridge. Because of this Jokic only averages 23pts on 48%.
In the second (final) round against the blazers, Jokic was meant to be guarded by 7ft Nurkic, but Nurkic is injured shortly before the playoffs begin so he is instead guarded by the blazers backup center. Now Jokic averages 27pts on 52%.
2020 - In the first round the nuggets face the jazz with Rudy Gobert guarding Jokic. Jokic manages to average 26pts on 51%.
In the second round the nuggets are playing the clippers and Jokic is guarded by 7ft paint protecter Zubac. Jokic only manages to average 24 pts on 51%.
Then in the third (final) round Jokic is guarded by a switch off of Anthony Davis and Javale McGee. He badly averages 22pts on 53%.
2021 - Jokic manages to finally have a great series against a good defensive center. Against Nurkic, Jokic averaged a great 33pts on 53%. Gotta give him his props for that series.
In the second (final) round Jokic is guarded by Deandre Ayton. He struggled and averaged 25pts on 47% (should be less but he had a 32 point game that brings his average up since it was only 4 games).
2022- Jokic has the second best scoring series of his career going against the notoriously small ball warriors whose tallest starter was 6 feet 7 inches. No surprise why he averaged 31pts on 57%.
And I know people are gonna say he’s mostly a passer, but his assist numbers drop in the playoffs, but that’s a post for a different day.

Can someone please explain how this power-up actually works? I know it's the result of Dark Shenron unlocking the Warriors in Black full power, but if this is the case, why do Bardock and Gohan need to turn Super Saiyan? Wouldn't all their power already be unlocked, or does super Saiyan further boost their power? (which would be kind of dumb since Dark Shenron should have drawn out all of their power already)...

Personally I'd love to see seven things:

1. The PokePhone lets you remotely access a database that puts Bulbapedia and that one Devil May Cry journal to shame because it has all the Pokemon info you can want on-disc along with high quality concept art and in-universe writing about the Pokemon. The PokePhone also lets you access stores for items, and access and your PC Storage account, letting you purchase any item at a higher than average price to make up for the convenience(gaining more badges reduces the price hike but if you want a 100% choice band starter run nothing's stopping you) and swap Pokemon between your boxes and party freely. You must visit a Pokemon Center to heal all pokemon in your party and boxes at the same time.
2. Level caps based on my current badge count. I hate accidentally overlevelling and feeling like I can't use that Pokemon without "cheating".
3. When a move is used, play the animation immediately and write text about it at the same time. Say whether it was super effective or not and how many times it hit in the same textbox. No awkward pauses between move usage, text bars, attack animation, HP bar changing, move effectiveness announcement, and faint sound and faint animation. And a small text box should explain stuff like move effects and ability effects and terrain effects when they're relevant, like showing card text in Yugioh.
4. Your Professor will take unwanted Pokemon off your hands and give you Professor Points you can spend like Battle Points on gaining new EXP Candies, Move Tutors, buying more Pokemon you already caught one of, and so on. After catching a Pokemon, you can also purchase more of that Pokemon from your Professor with Professor Points. Insert jokes here about the Professor grinding the mons up to make Rare Candies or whatever.
5. Skippable cutscenes. "But what if you skip something important or break events?" Fast forward through it all like Persona 5 to make the events play properly. Or better yet skip it anyway and put info on my screen like any other video game(particularly Fallout New Vegas, always loved the implementation there, but no compass), and let me toggle it off if I don't want "helpful" quest text onscreen. Let me fast forward through battles, too. I can name games like Final Fantasy XII that let me do that.
6. The Pokehacker is a Key Item unlocked when you beat the main game and postgame story. It lets you change a Pokemon's nature and IVs and EVs and Ability, convert any Pokemon into any other Pokemon you already have one of, change their moves and held item, you can do anything as long as it's "legal" according to the game's rules. You can't make a Sturdy Shedinja with Lock On and Fissure. But you can make a lv100 Garchomp with the EVs and IVs and Nature and Moves and Held Item you want in seconds. It can even access an online database of the most commonly used Garchomp sets and let you copy whatever you want. Your reward for beating all the single player content in the game? You've basically got Pokemon Showdown's team editor in item form to make editing your team for PVE as fast as it would be in Pokemon Showdown.
7. Tactics from Dragon Quest Monsters Joker. Ideally I'd prefer that thing from Final Fantasy XII where you can tell your Pokemon what to do under specific conditions and rank each command in importance. But Tactics from DQMJ would be easier for the kids to understand. Insert joke here about game journalists telling their Pokemon to "Show no mercy" and watching the game play itself at high speed. Don't want people automating 99% of the battles in the game? Don't make 99% of the battles so easy you'll never have to change tactics from "Show no mercy" to "Focus on healing" or "Follow orders". Automating tedium from the game is next to minimizing or entirely exorcising it when it comes to improving the play experience.

Context: I am your typical DPS/Ball player that support mains hate, and I started playing the game when OW2 came out. I wanted to play support more this season because I want to understand the game from a different perspective, and want to know why these people hate me so much. After playing a lot of support games this season and climbed to the highest rank I've ever climbed to in this game (Plat) as a support, I believe now I can call myself a support main and share with you fellas what I learned along the way, if you would allow me to:

• Supports are actually really fun: personally I wouldn't have kept playing it if the role isn't actually fun, but for me, someone who traditionally plays DPS roles in every other game (because shooting at people in a video game is fun), it was very surprising to me how proactive you can play supports in OW2. These support heroes (with the exception of Mercy but she herself is super slippery anyway) can for sure throw hands if they need to, and most of the time it feels like I'm playing DPS-lite with a healing minigame, a COD self healing passive, and usually the most impactful ults on the team (Baptiste's ult is whatever though). Personally I like multitasking, so if you only want to shoot at people, or if you only want to pump heals, maybe we will disagree, but I find supporting very fun and rewarding.
  
• Healing stats do not matter as much as people make them out to be: I'm not the first one to say that damage is healing and I sure as hell won't be the last. Here's the thing: it's not hard to heal your teammates. Every support player can just pump heals into their team, and even the most aim-intensive form of healing in the game (Ana's gun) has a generous hit box compared to actually shooting at people. I personally that a support carries their team by doing things other than healing their team: when they are helping to secure picks, when they are denying plays somehow, when they are facilitating plays with utility etc. is when they are actually providing value. My most played heroes are Zen, Lucio and Baptiste, and even when I'm "healbotting" Ana I tend to have lower healing values then the typical Ana. If I ever have highest healing in a game, then that means we are hard losing and I'm sitting in spawn pumping heals because I can barely take a shot at anyone.
  
• I still don't know why support players seem to hate DPS players that much while at the same seem to absolutely adore these big fat slow tanks. DPS heroes have low health pools so it's very easy to keep them alive, you basically click on them once or twice and they are good to go (or if you're Lucio you can just exist lmao), but tanks are big, take longer to heal due to their naturally large health pools, require constant attention because they are literally supposed to take damage, and the moment they die things go south so there's more emphasis on keeping them alive. You're basically babysitting a big fat baby who will die if you look away for 1 second, unless if the guy is playing Ball in which case you just heal them if you can and he will get his own health pack/roll to you for heals if he has to (maybe I'm biased because I am also a Ball main, but supporting a Ball is like the easiest job in the world because all you do is heal him a little bit then go play Deathmatch with the enemy team). Sure, DPS players get toxic, but let's be real, Overwatch players in every role get toxic lmao. I come from League so toxicity is nothing new and that kind of stuff doesn't phase me, but keeping a dumb tank alive feels like a chore because you still really need him to win, whereas if a DPS player isn't up to it, you can always prioritize the other DPS or the other support or making proactive plays yourself over keeping that guy alive. Basically what I'm trying to say is that I'd rather deal with 2 annoying chihuahuas than one big fat baby.
  
• Almost never put yourself into danger to save an overextended teammate: if they die, they die. People respawn in this game, it's better to stay alive and try to slow down their push while backpedaling than go in there and get wiped with them and lose everything at once. At least that's what worked for me personally. In League there is a very important concept that people who want to climb in solo queue must understand and that is to never compensate your teammate's mistakes with your own, and I am still a firm believer of that golden rule. I've heard people say that it's better to be with the whole team on a wrong play than to be alone on the right one, and personally I will have to disagree, especially if you're playing as a support. If you die your team's survivability is basically cut in half: your DPS can't heal themselves, the tank will die as well without a constant stream of healing going up their bums. I feel like support mains at least in low elo sometimes have this "savior complex" as I'd like to call it where they are almost too ready to sacrifice themselves to be the hero to get their DPS out alive, personally I never do that and I'll always be the first one to run (lmao) because of the next reason I'm about to mention here.
  
• You are responsible for your own survival as a support and noone is supposed to help you: if you are getting dove as a support, fight for your life to your best ability, ping out where you're getting flanked from, etc. And if you die, you die. Sometimes you just die, that's just how it is. Half the times though you don't even die because most supports, as I said, can throw hands themselves, surprisingly well as a matter of fact, but if you do die, it is what it is. You're playing a very important role and you're easier to kill than the tank so you gotta be prepared to die and to be focused. Most of the time I actually encourage the team to leave me alone or swap to Lucio and go dive people myself with my own divers on my team, they can't kill you if you kill them first gnome sayin 😎🤘because at the end of the day if I die but we get their supports that's hella worth.
  
• I don't play Mercy and every time I see a Mercy on my team I go Ana and nano her if I see her in Valk and I have my nano up and noone else really needs it. This is not a tip or anything it's just what I do and I'd be lying it ain't funny as heck to watch Mercy players panic and watch everyone on both teams confuse and freeze as the sight of a glowing Mercy flying at them with a BB gun 😂
  

Idk how to end this essay. Go fight me in comments I guess I'll see you all there.

I currently have Graphene Radical MP. I'm looking for a racket that has more control. My shots are mostly flat, and I find myself hitting balls just barely long somewhat often, like a couple inches unless I really mishit then it's like I'm playing at the World Series, lol.
I demoed the Boom a couple days ago because I found the racket looking super nice. I instantly noticed a pretty drastic difference between what I have now versus the Boom, in that my strokes feel like they have way more control. But then I read in this thread about how Boom is supposed to have more power than the Radical, so why is it that I felt like my shots were going in more than my current stick?
I also read that Prestige MP is a good stick for control more so than Boom and Radical, maybe I should try that out as well?
