Re: What's your favorite headcanon?
I actually hadn't thought of a lot of that, but that's brilliant analysis.
One thing I quite liked about SAO: Alternative is that the show makes very clear in the first couple episodes that Llenn isn't anywhere near as superhuman in real life - she specced her character cleverly to match her abilities. She can't hit the broad side of a barn, and even at close range she has to use the aim-assist the game provides. So, she sticks all her points into Dex to become incredibly fast and relies on ambush tactics to get the drop on other players. She makes up for her terrible aim by using a bullet hose SMG at point-blank range. And when it comes to actual military strategy she's hopeless, relying on M to analyze tactical situations.Last edited by Rodin; 2019-02-12 at 11:32 AM.

Re: What's your favorite headcanon?
A new one: Will Ferrell's live action character from The Lego Movie is also Will Ferrell's character from Stranger than Fiction.

Re: What's your favorite headcanon?
Cant be, Will Ferrell's live action character from the Lego Movie is Will Ferrell's Buddy from Elf.
Just in case Spoilers.
Spoiler: even if both movies are a few years old.the Lego Movie is a sequel to Elf, and The Man Upstairs is an older Buddy. After having a child and becoming successful in the publishing industry with his father (as shown at the end of Elf), he is driven to possess a basement full of his own Lego creations and a desire to glue them together the way he likes them instead of risking them getting broken at the hands of his child. He gradually loses touch with his Christmas Spirit due to the pressures of work and parenthood, but his son helps him rediscover the joys of creativity and childish imagination with Lego!If you find yourself watching Power Rangers and wonder how some characters got their powers and zords back for an anniversary episode, just assume they were restored off screen. They have 20+ seasons of team geniuses to call on.

Re: What's your favorite headcanon?
this may not be kinda head cannon but if you consider star wars as wuxia setting its kinda answers why Luke can do things other force users can't as all force users use same cultivation method regardless of compatibility when Anakin and Sidious killed their respective sides luke ended up with unique opportunity to cultivate with truly compatible style for him thus he became the most powerful force user in the setting. this also answers why Rey has instant mastery over lightsaber as her unknown inner cultivation suits the external cultivation of lightsaber combat. as for harem art online kirito is basically cultivating harem with each new mmo and alcalization arc kinda explains why he is good in games / how he can beat guys stronger then him entire alcalization arc kinda teaches him how to use the sword in his unique style and integrates his exeptional reflexes into his combat style in wuixia terms kirito has good internal cutivation but lacks external cultivation and alcalization kinda solves by downloading the damn info into his soul allowing him to get to his proper power level

Re: What's your favorite headcanon?
I think you're thinking Xianxia not wuxia (even though Star wars is more wuxia) Cultivation novels are high powered stuff.
but also they're is shockingly the most lazy genre you can find in a comic book. I really like the concept and a few pull it off and some I'd say are good, but somehow it just seems to be wave upon wave of trash-tier comics. Even Issekai comes with more originality.
My headcannon is that nobody reads comics in china so the lack of originality is not really an obstacle, or perhaps they only read comics from their own region of china...
But they seriously copy eachother mercilesly and often focus entirely on one OP character finding contrived ways to be more OP. They use the same tropes and it feels really juvenile a lot of the time....

Re: What's your favorite headcanon?
okay some content from Japan and China in little trash like black clover's anime but there is some good contend they at least know how to write hentai and close to hentai contend even the series they make is actually for like tohsaku( watch Garo series ryuga dogai era) and when they hit good concept they really made good content but like turkey they bit of stuck when to write love relationship as either last girl wins or the first girl wins there is literally no anime where second girl or random complete stranger to hero can win the hero's heart.

Re: What's your favorite headcanon?
In my headcanon, anything Star Wars made by Disney or EA does not exist.
Also, this isn't so much headcanon, as unrecognized truth, but D&D isn't actually medieval fantasy, it's classical fantasy - you know, ancient greece classical, with the gods meddling in mortal's affairs, great heroes, quests to the underworld, and just about every heroic fantasy trope found in D&D.

Re: What's your favorite headcanon?
The mother from the Gremlin's movie is more-or-less the villain. She started with the murder. The mother would also have murdered all of the gremlins if her son did not seek to "protect" her by moving her away from the gremlins. Seriously this woman killed like a half dozen gremlins without even breaking a sweat! This lady is a super murdering ninja of death! The movie would have been over in another 15-minutes if her son just let her do her murdering in peace!

Re: What's your favorite headcanon?
The new republic are inept.
The FO spent decades working their way into convincing systems of their cause, or at least convincing them not to participate in the war. The 'knights of Ren' were heavily involved in this.
The 'Deathstar tech' and 'hyperspace tracking' is just FO propaganda. Rose Is a spy, which is why she's the one in the know about this (or she's trying to allay suspicions about there being a spy on board, and her stationing by the escape pod is too convenient)
Everything about Rose says spy, from the fact that nothing ever works when she's around, to sabotaging's finn's self-sacrifice attempt, to her bafflingly inane rants about the people of the casino that's really just a bad attempt to blend in.
Some dude had a theory where Rey's parents weren't her biological parents and they found her grown in a pod, presumably with memories of the force implanted into her. her adopted traders sold her for little when they couldn't find a use for her. To me that works. Following TFA, I was expecting her parents to be nobody, but following the power displayed in TLJ, she's obviously too powerful to be from nobody.
Snoke is too inept
Hux is too incompetent
The palace guard dance number was no good.
Hyperdrive ram is inexcusable. Like was the nose of the ship made of something ultra expensive or something? That's the only way I can approach justifying it.Last edited by The Jack; 2019-03-08 at 06:24 AM.

Re: What's your favorite headcanon?
That actually is canon. It's why no one is responding to Leia's distress call.
The problem is that it is not shown or stated in the movies themselves. And sadly there's a title crawl. They could have added just a sentence or two to it and boom it is covered!
After the Force Awakens came out, there was a stage act put on at Disney World. A few First Order Troopers came out, did a photo opt with a kid dressed as Kylo Ren. While posing, one of the Troopers said, "There is no Order without the First Order."
I'd like to think that's a Canon propaganda slogan used by the First Order.Last edited by archon_huskie; 2019-03-08 at 10:38 AM.

Re: What's your favorite headcanon?
My favorite headcanon is that everyone in the pokemon world from humans to every nonlegendary pokemon are descended from ditto. That dittos just kept taking different shapes over and over again until they start freezing and staying in certain forms and thats how other pokemon came into existence, and that all sapient life in pokemon world are just undifferentiated masses of frozen ditto, with evolution being the last remnants of ditto ability some pokemon can do, and that theoretically anyone can re-unlock the ditto abilities to transform into anything else. That some ditto replacement scenario will never happen, because there is nothing to replace: everyone is already ditto deep down inside and just need to be shown to become so again.

Re: What's your favorite headcanon?
Star Wars
Order 66 is execute all Jedi
Order 65 is arrest the Chancelor
I believe Order 01 is the preservation of the Republic/Empire by any means.
Which is why the antagonists in ep7&8 are called the First Order.If you find yourself watching Power Rangers and wonder how some characters got their powers and zords back for an anniversary episode, just assume they were restored off screen. They have 20+ seasons of team geniuses to call on.

Re: What's your favorite headcanon?
Elder Scrolls:
The reason dragons have a desire to dominate all around them is because of Lorkhan's promise to Akatosh/Auri-el for rulership over Mundas.I imagine Elminster's standard day begins like "Wake up, exit my completely impenetrable, spell-proofed bedroom to go to the bathroom, kill the inevitable 3 balors waiting there, brush my teeth, have a wizard fight with the archlich hiding in the shower, use the toilet..."

Re: What's your favorite headcanon?
TES I'm still going with 'Totally wasn't the real alduin'. Alduin's a shiva-type figure that literally eats the world when akatosh becomes alduin.
Also I kinda thought he'd be cooler in gold.
