From my looking up the various words used here, I think this one may be an exercise in wordplay? Can someone with actual Japanese skills confirm?

If I'm not mistaken it's punning on "burikko", which means a girl who deliberately acts all cutesy for attention/favours. So G-buri + burikko = G-burikko.

    It's probably also worth translating G-buri, since it just stands in for "gokiburi" or "cockroach", so outside of any wordplay "G-burikko" is just "cockroach-girl".

    Probably worth creating an original character tag for her too since she shows up a lot.

    Was unsure whether to translate it or not since it obscures the pun.

    In the first place, how'd Red even MANAGE to silently takedown Provence?

    Ambush. that's how. Red silently waiting (possibly while enjoying fluffy hip sheep). and then Provence come in, possibly lured by fluffy hip sheep. all Red need to do, was attack. and she did. Provence trauma do all the rest for incapacitating herself

    just wanted to remark that, when translating the text in the bottom panel beside the speech bubble, google translate told me that it said "I have a hind boob and a hind breast." .....obviously this is not true. and googling "ๅ‰ตใฎใฏใกใ‚ƒใ‚“ใจๅพŒไนณไป˜ใใ‚‡" only brought me back to this exact page. so i had to make it up... i assume they're eating strawberries and cream, like they serve at wimbledon...

    Currently Dogmatika is getting nerfed in Master Duel with the semi-limitation of Nadir Servant, while Labrynth is not getting any restrictions.

    it's all kit fault, and Laby already get hit that never been happen on either TCG or OCG.

    I always look at pics like these and can't help but speculate that the artist had such a tough time with the Elden Soulsborne boss that they release their frustrations through pieces like this.

    because there ain't no way that this generic ass elf mage who's from a generic Magic the Gathering/D&D/Isekai setting is defeating the literal god of the Elden Ring verse that easily.

    there's literally a demigod who conquered the stars themselves just so he could keep all the horrors of the void at bay, and he is far beneath the Elden Beast.

    before you go off, try to separate fixed gameplay mechanics from real combat, if there were a tv series of Elden Ring rest assured battles wouldn't just be contained in a small area blocked off by fog where a tarnished performs 50 roles per minute and his foe can be stun-locked to death.

    If one of the strongest mages in that setting you clearly didn't watch can't do it, then who are you suggesting can? Keep in mind that the tarnished are themselves entirely mortal humans and devoid of any godly powers like Radahn, with their only real advantage being the ability to revive after dying, something only granted to them if they have the Guidance of Grace. "But the Elden Beast is an omniscient god!" Yeah and it was killed by a very stubborn human with infinite retries that could have had as little as a loincloth and a club.

    Ignoring game mechanics doesn't really change that the Protagonist has no known achievements prior to heeding the call of Grace and by all accounts is a complete nobody, but can still defeat the Elden Beast solo. But a powerful mage with 1000 years of experience can't do it?

    it's about an emotionless depressed Mary Su of an elf mage with no familial lineage who finds her purpose in knowing, learning about & raising future generations of heroes to be more than just the best in their field by not just teaching them to raise their power level but also to teach them to be better people through lessons from her personal experiences from her prolonged life as an elf, at least that's what I gathered from watching the first ep.

    it's a bit depressing and not my cup of tea, it has stunning animation & story-wise it has a half-decent plot, but, like most anime serials, the show is very much generic as a whole.

    it's just another series where the hype mainly comes from its animation more than anything else like most anime these days.

    yes.

    revival is a hax power that even the all-powerful Frieren would lose against eventually, especially if the person who can revive can grind against endless hordes of enemies of all types until they are powerful enough to solo her, the same can be said for the Elden Beast or any boss in a elden soulsborne game.

    you forget to recognize that these gods, demigods, ethereal, magical, eldrich beasts that we face are by all means impossible for the naked man with a stick to beat without endless revival and constant grinding, two things that Frieren does not have, she ONLY has 1000 years of experience, and the last time I checked the shattering happened 5000 years before the events within the game take place, so I'll play nice & disregard the life they all had before the shattering and say 1000 years of exp in relative peace with some bouts in between vs 5000 years of constant warring and survival in a post-apocalyptic setting, you choose.

    Frieren isn't a Mary Sue. Mary Sues are perfect and flawless, but Frieren isn't - she's not a morning person, she has trouble understanding and empathizing with people, her sense of time is whack, she always falls for the mimic chest trap even when it's clear it's a mimic chest. She has at least twice as many flaws as she has strengths.
    Her favorite spell is a spell to create a flower field. She has a box full of useless knick-knacks (like a potion that only dissolves clothes). Her hobby is collecting weird super-niche spells - like a spell to make grapes sour or a spell to clean clothes.
    In short, she's a goofy goober.

    raise their power level

    You've been watching too many gamified isekais, there are no hard-coded power levels in Frieren. No HP bar, no stats, no skills, no nothing - this is the good old Tolkien shit!

    but also to teach them to be better people through lessons from her personal experiences from her prolonged life

    Other way around, Frieren learns to be more human-like, even if still stoic, from her friends.

    1000 years of exp in relative peace

    WRONG! "Relative peace" as you call it has only existed since the first scene of the first episode. Before that the world has been under constant threat by demons, who live by the creed of might makes right.
    Frieren has been training and preparing to fight and killing demons for almost all her life.

    like most anime serials, the show is very much generic as a whole.

    it's just another series where the hype mainly comes from its animation more than anything else like most anime these days.

    And this right here is why we have the three episode rule. You are just so utterly wrong.
    Like, how do you know that it's the same as all the rest when you haven't even watched it? Even from the first episode it's clear that it's different - the color palette and character designs are restrained, the usual "quest" to defeat the demon lord that is the whole point of the story is already over, there is no sense of urgency or even a hint of danger. Even despite the battles Frieren feels kind of like a iyashikei slice-of-life story.

    Pls dont guilt me just because she looks like a reused asset with a BB rigging edit. The character in itself isnt bad tho and many people who didnt like Anson pointed that out.

    Yes, the community agreed that the issue was not the art itself, but that she was given the KGV-class. We all hope she comes back as a submarine (HMS Sunfish or the battleship Centurion, which was disguised as Anson at one point.

    She was a cute design used by mistake for Anson

    I am not sure if the Tengu is Aya or Hatate.
    She has short hair like Aya, but she has a tie and holds a hair like Hatate, however, does not have pigtails.
    it may be an alternative hairstyle, but I'm not sure.

    I'm fairly sure this piece is supposed to be a bunch of male or at least more masculine depictions of various touhou characters, considering the shorter hairstyles (mostly) across the board and the way the faces are drawn, and a quick machine translation of the commentary seems to agree with me, for what that's worth. With that as well as the phone that they're holding in mind, I'm pretty confident it's Hatate.

    This is just mean man

    Considering how she tends to act to Rhodes employees, basically being an asshole knowing they can't really do anything since Kalt'sit's said they can't, this is basically just karma.

    Especially since, in this very comic, she starting off insulting Rhodes by saying it was too cheap to have Christmas parties.

    Maybe if she were a little nicer they'd invite her.
