    Wow. Just wow. That was epic I love fight scenes, and that was very well done. Wonderful battle, and so sad!

    Only one point of critism (which is mostly a stylistic thing):

    Here, I don't think you need the 'seemingly'. His voice was supposed to erupt from his body yes? You were trying to express exactly how he's feeling and just how he's screaming - anger and hatred and fear all in one right? Using 'seemingly' actually lessens the impact of the 'erupt from my body' part. I would take it out.

    Also, on a purely physical note, technically we talk out of our body (the mouth), so why can't he 'erupt' instead of just yell?

    what in the name of pun-pun does tl;dr mean?!

    We could tell you, but then we'd have to kill you

    Translated: I have no idea what it means, but I've seen it before and am also curious. Machuchang, what does it mean?

    edit: and there you go answering the question before I get in...
