Have you read any of the entries in Sakurai Hikaru's steampunk series?

I picked up Sharnoth back when it came out in 2008, but my Japanese wasn't up to snuff at the time, and then I never got around to checking any of them when it got better. I'd definitely like to read at least some of them, especially since Sakurai's prose in FGO and the like is right up my alley.

Which TRPG systems do you use for all of your games?

I'm currently playing two campaigns: the first one (that's ending soon-ish) uses a homebrew Final Fantasy-themed system, and the second one (the Arknights-themed one) runs on Beacon. Personally, I feel like it's a bit too gameplay-oriented and leaves little room for roleplay (not unlike D&D), but I'm still managing to let my scrimblos do their thing outside of just fighting stuff.

Regarding the terminologies question, would it be OK if I were to DM you for any questions?

Sure, though depending on the specifics it might take me a while to answer (I'm going to be out at a friend's place tomorrow, for instance).

How old is masada?

What are some of the terminologies that you'd go with in Avesta and Aditya if translating those two works?

Anonymous Coward · 6mo

With the recent Aditya chapters release you think Avesta development are going smoothly? Because I seen some news about some of the developers got hospitalize and G health issue.

I assume you're talking about the news from a while back, so everyone should be okay now? Obviously, things probably aren't going 100% smoothly because it's been a while since we heard about it, but like I said in the last ask, I'd like to believe it's because they're busy making things happen rather than facing some unforeseen setbacks and staying silent about it. Since I trust them with my money, there's not much else I can do.

What is the current situation with light and masada and do you think that senshinkan will ever get a tl?

I'm cautiously optimistic, mostly because of the recent Senshinkan artwork by Yuusuke. They've been avoiding talking about any past releases after going independent, so this might mean they're currently trying to reform their relationship with Light. Masada has been pretty quiet about all the different projects they had announced, so I hope he's busy talking things through rather than just figuring out what to do with Aditya. His next stream is certainly going to be big, whenever it happens.

I probably put this in Imgur since it still relatively new and to me has a big spoiler.

Has you read the new chapter of Aditya? Specifically part 2 of chapter 12.

Anonymous Coward · 7mo

Hey anon from yesterday, I talk with several people about Aditya and I noticed that Naraka Atman face is obscured by a mask, and appears when we can’t see Varuna face, not only that during the Aditya trailer we can’t truly see Varuna full body with his head either. Add on to that in Avesta chapter 14 where Varuna name didn’t got mentioned which me to some theory, what if the Observer is Naraka Atman not Varuna?

This is one of the core mysteries of Aditya, and I did describe it in depth when Naraka got introduced. Things did progress a bit since then, but not to the point of solving it, so all I can say is "Yeah, maybe, and that's messed up".

To me when I reread a lot of Masada works it seem like he has the skeleton as what the series are going to be, and as he went on with the series he start to put in flesh and blood as he write more. IIRC there was an interview during 2012 in which Masada did say he has an idea how the series are going to be during the Paradise Lost time. I'll wait for more info on Aditya for now. It was fun talking to you, and I hope my grammar don't really trouble you that much.

Thanks for being part of the community, and don't be a stranger if you have any other questions!

Continue off with my previous question, indeed there are so much mystery within the Shinza world, even now I still crafting theories and talking to people about it. For example, I went back and check on Dies Irae and K3 there are so many statements that can be called "hint" but if you read Avesta and Aditya then those statements become very important with the world building within Shinza. Masada really know how to drop clues and make readers craft their own theory fot his stories.

I do have to wonder how many of these hints are actually just Masada cleverly retconning stuff he wasn't really giving much thought at the time, but either way, he sure is good at doing it.
