Black magic raw speed test is the evaluation of the performance and speed of black magic, a type of magic associated with supernatural powers and manipulation of dark forces. The raw speed test specifically focuses on the swiftness and quickness with which black magic spells and rituals can be performed and their effectiveness. Black magic is often associated with negative and harmful intentions, and its practitioners believe that it can bring harm to others or fulfill personal desires. It is widely believed that black magic operates at a much faster pace than traditional magic, hence the need for speed tests to assess its effectiveness. The raw speed test is conducted by experienced black magic practitioners who aim to measure the time taken to cast certain spells and rituals successfully. These tests measure the ability to tap into the dark energies and manipulate them swiftly.
Though I still haven’t seen Crystania, I’ve seen the original Lodoss and Chronicles multiple times, so getting to sit through a new story in the same world for the first time here was refreshing.
Melissa, a priestess of Mylee the God of War, goes through a ritual where she prays to Mylee for a champion, a sacred ceremony where the God is supposed to speak to the priestess and give her a warrior that will fight for them. except for when it comes to Louie s feelings for her; which she shamelessly exploits so he ll fulfill her tasks for her and protect her while he s at it.
These tests measure the ability to tap into the dark energies and manipulate them swiftly. The speed and efficiency of performing black magic rituals can be crucial in achieving desired outcomes. It is important to note that black magic is often considered dangerous and unethical, as it involves the use of harmful spells and rituals against others.
[Where I Watch] Rune Soldier (anime) (1 Viewer)
[Where I Watch] seems to be kind of a tradition on this board, so I thought I'd try my hand at it.
Rune Soldier is a 24-episode anime based off of someone's D&D campaign (like Record of Lodoss War). Unlike RoLW (which I've never seen), it's intended to be funny. I'm dubious about this claim. Here we go. *hits play*
Introductory Theme Sequence:
There’s a girl – she’s cute, and sitting on top of something medieval, when a woman in white waves to her from below and suddenly Sitting Girl handily jumps what appears to be three million stories to land gracefully and hug her.
Okay, I’m going out on a limb and guessing that Sitting Girl is the Thief. Woman in white is the Healer.
There’s a redhead. She’s really tall, she carries a really big sword, and she’s showing off really big cleavage. This is Fighter!
And then there’s the blue-haired boy. Is he the leader? Goblins jump out of the hill he’s standing on and attack all of them, so we may NEVER KNOW.
Ack! NPC montage scene! Singing nurses! Elves! No Elvis.
Combat sequence confirms all my guesses (although Healer could still be a White Mage). Bishie-Boy uses his fists, so he might be the Monk? Is this recent enough for there to be Monks? Is it old enough for there to be Monks? Man, this new edition stuff confuses me.
After the fight, Bishie-Boy pulls out a club, the women stare at it adoringly, and then it sparkles with white light and flowers bloom everywhere. If there’s no innuendo here I’ll eat my hat. Ah, Bishie-Boy – why must your class be as indeterminable as your gender?
Thief has a remarkably deep voice for a young woman. Fighter, obviously, has an even deeper voice. No stereotyping here, folks.
Also, the voice acting? It’s terrible. Just terrible. I’m listening to the dub, for clarification, so the original may be much better. That said, after a while the terrible dubbing starts to blend with the barrage of clichés to…um…I’m not selling anyone on this show, am I?
HAH! Healer is a cleric. And her name is…Melissa? >.
Thief is swarmed by hookers! They’re after the Bishie! He’s obnoxious – and accidentally depantses Thief. Thief kicks his ass – Bishie leaves the encounter with the line, “Second time tonight.”
Oh, now Fighter’s turn for a solo scene. She’s not swarmed by hookers…unless those guys with mohawks…? Oh no. They’re muggers.
Thug #2: “We could settle this with steel, if you happen to be packing any.”
Dude. Thug #2. She’s got a sword bigger than your torso. It’s strapped to her back (if only, perhaps, to counterbalance what lonely animators strapped to her front). Did your vision problems drive you to a life of crime?
Bishie horns in again. He’s not as embarrassing in a fight as I thought he’d be.
Healer’s boss is named… Jenny. Great. I’m digging the Lord of the Rings vibe here. I’ve been told Western names are exotic to the Japanese, but this is just silly.
And where do they find the magician they need? In a bar.
Thief: “We’re a band of professional adventurers!”
Mage: “Wow, really?!”
…it’s the ghosts of all my old campaigns come back to haunt me.
Mage: “So, what you’re saying is, you want me to join you on your adventures?”
Party: (nods unanimously)
Bishie reappears. His name is …Louie?
Cleric: “I’m sorry, Loogie, but…”
Why are the women so insistent on maintaining the gender unanimity? Privacy issues, perhaps? Is society matriarchal?
Bishie: “You won’t find a female mage in this town who isn’t locked up in the library!”
Mage: “Excuse me, I’m going to go lock myself up in the library!” (leaves cheerfully)
…And Bishie fails his first attempt at magic.
Later that evening…
Healer: “I’d like to take this time to perform my Sacred Ritual of Revealing.”
…Gimme that old-time religion…
Okay, no stripping. Apparently, the Ritual of Revealing (snerk) will show Healer the champion she’s destined to serve (mmm, Japanese misogyny, tastes like octopus). She wants a handsome hunk who loves her. I’m betting she gets Bishie.
Hey, the singing nurses are back! You remember them, from the intro sequence, right? Apparently they’re actually church acolytes. Healer is their idol, apparently.
…Healer really wants her champion to be the bastard child of David Bowie and Charlemagne.
Aaand over to Bishie! He’s out of jail! He’s in class! He sucks at class! He punches walls! It hurts! OH THE ANGST!
Apparently he really does suck at magic, and he’s only gotten so far because he’s the headmaster’s adopted son.
Mage: “You’re thinking of those three girls in the bar, aren’t you? There’s something about adventurers. I think it’s the way they’ll do anything for money, and I do mean anything. Those people leave a bad taste in my mouth.”
Bishie decides adventuring could be for him – he’s got no idea where to find Fighter or Thief, but Healer’s gotta be at the temple, right.
Bishie runs into Thief and Fighter, they get into an argument, Thief and Fighter start chasing Bishie around the temple…
Thief’s name is apparently Merrill. I can live with that much better than Melissa.
Fighter is…Genie? Alright then.
And Louie is apparently our titular Rune Soldier.
Tenjobito – Definitely old school fantasy goodness, even if kind of simplistic. If nothing else you really have nothing to lose watching Rune Soldier; It’s short enough to not take up too much time, inoffensive enough to be watched by a younger audience, funny and driven enough to keep you awake, and well made enough to please the eyes and ears. None of it stands out as the best ever, but there really is nothing majorly wrong with it at the same time.
It is typically associated with revenge, jealousy, and manipulation. Due to its negative connotations and potential consequences, many cultures and religions strongly discourage or outright condemn the practice of black magic. Despite its controversies, black magic remains a topic of intrigue and curiosity for many individuals. The raw speed test serves as a way to explore and assess the capabilities of this mysterious and often misunderstood form of magic..
Reviews for "Unearthing Hidden Speed: A Black Magic Raw Performance Test"
- John - ★☆☆☆☆
I was really disappointed with the "Black magic raw speed test". The video quality was extremely poor and grainy, and the colors looked washed out. The raw speed was also not very impressive, with lots of lag and buffering. Overall, it was a waste of time and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.
- Emily - ★★☆☆☆
I didn't find the "Black magic raw speed test" to be very useful. The video was choppy and pixelated, making it hard to see any significant difference in speed. Additionally, the test didn't provide any context or comparison to other cameras or settings, so it was difficult to gauge its true performance. It felt more like a promotional video rather than a genuine speed test.
- Michael - ★☆☆☆☆
I had high expectations for the "Black magic raw speed test", but unfortunately, it fell short. The video quality was subpar, with noticeable artifacts and distortion. The speed test itself was also underwhelming, as the video playback was slow and frequently froze. Overall, I was not impressed with this test and would recommend looking for more reliable sources for evaluating camera speeds.
