Risa is so active, and I love it.

xusontha OP ,

There’s no escape after you’ve started. I have things I should be doing but instead I’m dilly-dallying on Risa and RPG Memes

It’s one of the only community which i check more than once daily. Can’t get enough of the star trek memes and shitposts.

Never had anything to do with star trek in my life, I just see it in my everything list. So what exactly does risa stand for?

Risa is the name of a planet that was discovered in Star Trek. It’s a paradise planet where anything goes, so it became a popular vacation/shore leave spot for Starfleet across multiple Trek series.

So, of the Star Trek communities on Lemmy (previously reddit), Risa was used as the name of the loosely moderated community for memes and stuff.

As a big yugioh fan, I approve. Fucking STELLAR use of this meme. Also insanely true. I didn’t realize just how active Risa was in comparison to other places until recently. Glad I made this my home lol

xusontha OP ,

Yeah, anytime I go to the majority of communities on Lemmy, I’m always surprised by how active /c/risa is. As for yugioh, I’ve never seen it. Is it good? (I’m assuming yes given how you’re a big fan)

For real. Lemmy does feel a little empty sometimes but I’m glad that our corner burns bright.

For Yugioh… not really. I wouldn’t say it’s good but I grew up watching it so there’s heavy nostalgia surrounding it. I also play Yugioh a fair amount. I like puzzle and strategy games and Yugioh tends to prove that. The show is very clearly for children but it’s fun in a goofy/silly sort of way but that’s probably because I like the American Dub. The original Japanese anime is way darker. Still funny and has those tones but people outright die from playing the card games as opposed to the American version where they’re sent to the ‘shadowrealm’. Then again not sure that being openly sent to a realm filled with darkness and eternal torture is any better than death but whatever.

It’s just such a goofy concept. Thousands of years ago, there were real monsters that roamed an alternate world and Egyptians had the ability to conjure them and make them fight. They used giant stone tablets and various items imbued with power. Stuff happens and that stops. Then thousands of years later, an EXTREMELY camp dude goes to Egypt and finds these stone tablets, realizes what they are, and turns them into a card game called Duel Monsters. Why? So he can find those special items known as ‘Millennium Items’. While all this is going on, an old man goes to Egypt as well and finds one of those items. A broken apart puzzle. He brings it back home to his grandkid, named Yugi, who puts it together and releases a spirit called ‘Yami’ who happens to be super fucking good at card games because he’s the spirit of the last Pharaoh to have control over those tablets and monsters. Now this little kid and this spirit have to work together to play childrens card games to save the fate of the planet. Their friends include: Aggressively Brooklyn idiot, Airhead Jock with Heart of Gold, and Cheerleader. His enemies include his classmate, Kaiba, who is the billionaire teenage CEO of an international corporation that makes holographic technology for this card game and also war weapons. Other enemies include: Super Camp Apparently Not Gay dude who created ‘Duel Monsters’, Billionaire Teenage supposed-to-be-CEO, 5 Wall Street Executives, Multiple demonic entities, a giant dragon god from an alternate dimension and someone who brought sexy back.
