What would you call Light right now? I dunno what trope to call her anymore, lol.

@Archmage MC

There is no describing Light.

[c3p-0h]

Kingdom hearts is light.

[Savato]

I'd honestly say Light is an over the top Mary Sue. I do not know if she's bisexual though.

@Savato

I don't know if she is a Mary Sue, she loses quite often. And she probably is, no one has bothered to ask her though, or well, flirt with her in general.

@Archmage MC

Well auto-hits are permitted on her because of her invincibility. So no backlash in losing.

But I dunno, I may be using the term incorrectly. I'm not sure what she is if that's the case.

... Wow Japan is depressing. up to 16 hour work days, average being 12 hours, 6 days a week. No wonder why they are having population issues and no wonder why the 3DS sells so well over there. Just... wow. All that atop the whole sexism thing but jeez, its understandable why they have so much porn over there with work days that long.

The Government is trying hard to handle this problem. But this kind of lifestyle is ingrained in mentalities. I don't know much about the subject but a couple of my colleagues did mention similar things during their internships there. Harsh world.

@Savato

Its an easy fix. Force 8 hour work days, make it a heavily enforced law. Bam, fixed. Thats more or less the cut and dry of it that they gotta do. It only takes about 5 years for people to get used to things. Yay political science. Its like China and the 1 birth per couple law.

I don't know if you should introduce Overtime or not though. I'm all for options, but people over there might not use it for the right reasons, IE relationships, and just use it for more money.

[Weird Tales]

I've been thinking of how to make my Superman like character. I could go for a very religious meta that is very hard on criminals and believes that metahumans are guardian angels and those that do evil are like demons.

@Archmage MC

That's really over-simplifying it. China is a totalitarian government, things work much differently. I'm not willing to debate this here, though.

@Weird Tales

The Meta who just killed the Reformist leader and pretty much screwed over the entire HQ is a similar zealot except not so much like Scar. By the way, Cedric's execution was broadcast live on every TV screen nearby.

@Savato

It is, but if you have to declare martial law for a few years to make it so your whole country doesn't go extinct due to not enough procreation, its the lesser of two evils. Probably don't gotta go that far, but something has to be done to get more birth rates, thats for sure. But fair enough, politics gets hot very very fast.

@Weird Tales

You can do that, make it a person of the church to really set it home. It'll be interesting to see what happens.

Well it is more of an economics issue.

@Savato

My character would call them a heretic and would want to plant them pretty badly.

@Archmage MC

I was thinking about making him the son of a police officer that was killed, which makes his hard justice more personal. He may not be part of the clergy, but he would be a poster child for some of the more extreme members.

[c3p-0h]

you could pull a javert and have him born in a jail surrounded by the worst humanity has to offer and thus having a bleak view on the species as a whole. could be an interesting thing too because he could see himself as especially dirty what with being born in such filth while still on this crusade to cleanse people or whatever.

[Subject Zero]

@Weird Tales This Superman type character, how tough would he be on criminals? Would he go as far as to kill them?

@Pirouette

There's never an economical issue without politics right next to it, Nancy. They always deal a great amount of TENSION.

He would only kill them if they refused to surrender and kept attacking him

@Savato

I know all about tension. Never stop... Never...

[Weird Tales]

In my opinion when you mix politics with anything whether it money, religion, science then that's when extremism occurs
