Yes and no. I just checked basketball reference, and he got 8.6ppg and 5.2rpg his rookie season. It's really not that big of a leap, especially since it was mentioned that he fits the bulls system more than he did the bucks. And even if you are a star player, the system you're in matters. Look Deron Williams he was a really good player and starter, but in the Utah system in real life, a lot of people ranked him ahead of Chris Paul. When he went to the nets, that quickly became clearly not the case, but that wasn't an unpopular opinion. In a lot of fics, the Nationalism becomes over the top, and I'm not sure how much has been edited out by the translator, but so far, this really isn't egregious, international player wants other players from their home country to be good is honestly quite realistic. Anyway, have a good day.

eh, have u seen Scream 1? Essentially, a common troupe, especially for horror movies pre 2000s if you see a character having sex it usually means they are going to die. Typically, the final girl in most American horror is a pretty blonde white chick, another common troupe, especially when looking at b horror flicks and so on.

Finished reading up till ch69, I've really enjoyed the story so far. There are a few critisms/ questions I have about it. Starting from the start, how much of the show has the MC watched before. He transferred over while watching Ep1 but has knowledge of other events, so that's not clear. This does matter because of his actions or rather inaction in regard to the plot canon. This is probably the biggest issue because up until the last few chapters canon is still essientially on pace, most of the issues with story kind of stem from that decision to keep the canon intact and then ultimately deciding to interviene in the end anyway. Such as Rue's relapse, which somewhat gets addressed, but the MC knowing it was going to happen in advance and doing nothing really about until afterwards doesn't match the character that we have been given throughout the rest of the story. And that situations like that happen a few times. Another question/ issue is the music. How does that work? We know from one of the chapters that he is recreating a song from his past life. Is the MC doing that for all the music besides a few lines changed here and there? Does the MC not care about rapper integrity when crafting lyrics? He has no issues with ghost writing? It's not a problem if that's the case, but it is when it's glossed over, especially since that is such an important aspect of rap culture. Also, how does the music world work are J.cole, Drake, Future, and others non-existent in this reality? Does that really have no effect on how rap specifically has developed in the last 15 years? That kinda needs an answer for a story like this, and it could be they do exist, but they didn't end up releasing all the same songs, so the MC targets the songs that don't exist in this reality. That's an explanation, or it could be something else, but there does need to be an explanation in-story. Writing quality besides a few chapters here and there, which haven't been edited, is really well done. I really love some Rue's perspectives straight up some of the best writing on this app. I don't particularly like Maddy has main romance, but that's just a preference thing. I honestly think this story might be better if you get rid of the tramisigation and have the main character just be an OC. It gets rid of most of the problems I found in your story. Like, why is he so fixated on maddy from the start? Answer he has a crush, which is completely normal teenage behaviour. Or why didn't he interviene in the situation? Answer he had no idea it was happening and no way to know about it. Overall, I have enjoyed reading so far, I recommend that if you haven't seen it, watch Yesterday (2019). I actually don't really like the ending, but it is a good movie and relates to the music questions in regards to the book.

I could be wrong, but a lot of Eastern mythology is based on cycles where spiritual energy is prominent and then almost non-existent. So basically, the belief is that mythology and the methods of figures from mythology are real but don't work in the current era where there is basically no spiritual energy. But the methods themselves are 'absolutely true' and so therefore in a world that does have energy, cultivation work. And also because it was a downward trend, not a complete stoppage of energy that happened in our world, the methods invented before this era of no energy, the methods themselves became more efficient, so therefore are better than methods where there is energy in surplus. That's the basic idea, but because it's kind of a cultural believe it's not always explained in story, or sometimes there is a different explanation altogether.

Just did a quick google search. It seems Allen was expected to fall to 6th, which was the Celtics pick, but got taken 4th by Minnesota. Then, he was traded to the Bucks for Stephen Malburry and a future 1st round draft pick

Ok that is fair, I would argue that Moodys lesson is most likely as semi standard one like we find out, that Lupin's Boogart lesson is a similar to what they had in 20's when Dumbledore is teaching. But not confirmed canon, that's headcannon, so I get what ur saying. Umbridge not getting punished is more so to do with Death Eater Coup that standard operation even if there was always corruption. I think I might have misread ur point. Where u said coherence, that is something I do agree with. I'm usually the one correcting people on what's canon and fanon 😅

How were they spotted ? It's a whole plot point in the movie that they were reported to the Volturi.

??? Ur point 1 is not true at all. The only time that unforgivables were allowed in hogwarts was after Dumbledore died and Voldemort took power. Harry is generally an exception, not the rule, even though we see things from his perspective. The other time students are openly abused is when Umbridge takes over, which we know is when ministry is almost completely at that point infiltrated by death eaters. In year 4, Dumbledore and Fudge haven't had a complete breakdown in relations yet. Point 2 is true, but it's not stated, so we don't know what the MC is thinking. Also, we know canonly HP wizards can check wands for spells, and there is no actual support that you can change the result of the wand check. Is he thinking that he's leaving soon and doesn't want to get caught up in a court case, maybe, but that's not stated maybe its because they have already used lethal force in a timeskip and nothing happened, we don't know. What the author chooses to explain and what they pass over is so strange. It's necessary to know the ritual cost 1/8th of what he got from selling basilisk parts. What is not important is why he completely accepts the vast escalation of people trying to kill him. I hope this does get, but even if does it should have been answered in this chapter.

The Mc screwing up his first interaction, I thought, was a good idea, but the way the rest of the chapter went was so cringe. Honestly, the author used too much on chatgpt for the first part of their story, and that's what's created the gap in the mc. Such a dramic shift between 34 chapters of character building can't be completely hand waived away. I think if it's explicitly stated that the MC was completely uninterested in Harry Potter even in his first life, it might make a bit more sense, but still not really. If this new attitude of the MC is his standard from now on, I honestly think the author should keep the first 5 chapters, then cut all the HP content into one condensed timeskip chapter and forget the tournament. The problem isn't necessarily the MC's attitude it is the whiplash from the 180.

That's fanon. Canon pretty much only states that occullmency protects from legimancy. And that legimancy is not reading the mind like a book as the mind doesn't work that way. Purposeful vagueness as that is how soft magic system works and that JK didn't want to be caught up in the details.
