Prince of Tennis ending in six chapters:

Did Prince of Tennis ever really need a sequel?  No.  Has the past ten years of extra content been fun?  Yes.  But all good things must come to an end, including the endless Prince of Tennis.  I predicted the end of Prince of Tennis would be one of 2026's milestones, and here we are.  Another prediction that's come true.

Prince of Tennis started in 1999, around the same time as One Piece.  It's one of the longest manga of all time, with 88 volumes so far.  We've seen every tennis match imaginable, including horseback tennis.  This is a good time to stop.

America doesn't get to enjoy the end of the Prince of Tennis manga, because it isn't being translated.  But the anime has reliably adapted the manga so far, so we'll eventually get to see the ending in anime form, so having the ending in manga form gets us one step closer to that goal.  Perhaps in 2027.

The monthly refresh in Heaven Burns Red didn't yield me much in benefits.  I got wedding dress Mari to level 2 limit break and maxed out thundercat Byakko's memento.  Well, it could've been worse.

Iran is a nation of 92 million people, the USA can't be expected to defeat it in a single day, but we've already made sizable progress by taking out their 'supreme leader.'  I honestly don't know what will happen.  We know Trump likes to fold and run away because he already did that with Yemen.  But we also know Iran likes to fold and run away because it already did that last year.  When both sides are cowards who like to give up immediately, who wins?  Nobody knows.  I hope Trump perseveres until the Iranian regime is overthrown, but I have a sinking feeling we'll soon be back to 'ceasefires' and 'negotiations.'  God I'm so tired of negotiations.  In Iran, in Ukraine, everywhere.  Things should be settled with unconditional surrender.  If you can't get that through conventional means then just nuke your opponent into submission.  No quarter for the enemy.  Complete victory.  Why are we afraid of a bunch of barbarians without nukes when we have nukes?  Tell them to obey or die.  By the way I support Russia nuking Ukraine into submission too.  I support all wars being fought seriously across the board.  I'm against fake wars.

It's because everyone's too afraid to use nukes that pissant countries like Ukraine and Iran defy superpowers with nukes in the first place.  If everyone understood upfront that defying a nuclear power meant getting nuked, there would be no wars at all.  People would just take their marching orders quietly and obediently from the beginning.  Imagine if, on October 7th, Hamas had raided across the border into Israel, and that very day, all of Iran evaporated into nuclear flame.  Do you really think Hamas would have attacked?  Would the last four years of war in the Middle East have ever happened?  Acting seriously has serious benefits.

This entire century has been dominated by pointless wars because nuclear powers didn't use nukes.  Al Qaeda wouldn't have dared to attack us on 9/11 if they knew the entire Muslim world would disappear in response.  There goes the entire war on terror, the endless wasted trillions that has put America into so much debt.  We could have spent it all on free health care, or solved our social security insolvency problem, or given all children a free house upon reaching age 18, with that money.

Russia has lost hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of men in a war it could have ended on day 1 with the threat of nukes.  It's now five years into the war and no closer to achieving its original objectives than when it started.  NATO still intends to deploy armed forces into Ukraine after the war is over.  Ukraine still intends to build up a huge army and retake its 'lost territories' at some later date.  Ukraine still has entire divisions of troops with Nazi banners and Nazi tattoos running around.  The Russian language and the Russian Orthodox church is still banned.  The people of Donbass still aren't safe from shelling -- the people of Belgorod aren't safe from shelling.  All because Putin is too much of a pussy to use the one effective weapon Russia has in its arsenal.

Israel and America need to man up and use their nukes too.  Enough is enough.  Oppose a nuclear power and die.  That should be the new 'international law.'  Why are we taking casualties for no reason, when we could win this war instantly, with the flick of a wrist?  Why should a single American die for the sake of sparing Iranian lives?  Give them a clear ultimatum, surrender or perish in nuclear flame.  Then if they refuse to surrender their deaths are on their own insane heads.

I can sort of understand why we didn't use nuclear weapons in Korea or Vietnam, because there was fear of the USSR reprising with nukes.  But that situation no longer exists.  Iran isn't under anybody's nuclear umbrella, and neither is Ukraine.  In fact, we can make a deal with Russia, openly and publicly -- you can nuke Ukraine without reprisal, and in exchange we get to nuke Iran without reprisal.  That will make everything clearly safe for all.  That would also bring instant peace to the world, as both the nations without nukes would surrender instantly.  We could have eternal peace all across the world with this one neat trick.
