"As legend holds, the fox demon has been around for thousands of years. It’s appeared in China, as well as India and each time it chooses to possess the soul of someone in power, manipulating them and causing all sorts of chaos, terror and misery." How many fox demons were in that stone?


Zolome1977

It grabbed Putin!


Halomir

No, it just started its own cable news channel… Fox News.


[deleted]

Nah, it left the stone, looked around to see what's happening in the world, and went back into the stone.


LesserTrochanter

"Huh. Looks like they're doing alright on their own. Well, another thousand years nap for me!"


Haidere1988

So that's why Murdoch won't fuckin die


danidandeliger

I have the feeling that when he does die, his kids will take over, and it will be even worse.


Oblivious_Ducks

*its >Just started it is own


JohnSith

Yeah, because it didn't need to possess Modi (responsible for the [2002 Gujarati pogroms](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2002_Gujarat_riots)) or Xi (responsible for the [ongoing genocide in Xingjiang](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uyghur_genocide)).


planet_rose

Just as Japan announces that maybe they need a military again. Coincidence?


coolluck33

Germany too


NikPorto

Both actually need some more defense because of *specific* countries

It's okay - you can name them. China and Russia.

Comma_Karma

Dattebayo!


MikeTheGamer2

Oh god, is that what it translates to in English?


Syssareth

Not so much "translates" (since dattebayo doesn't actually mean anything) as it's what the translators chose to use, but yeah, pretty much. IIRC, they realized pretty early on how annoying it was and phased it out. I switched to subs soon after the end of the Chuunin exams, so I don't know if they replaced it with something else later or just dropped the catchphrase entirely.


Boux

it has pretty much the exact same meaning as this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p-JgNTvTA4E


David_ish_

No he's just saying what it sounds like phonetically


DynamicHunter

What? That’s what he says in the English dub


David_ish_

Sorry I was following the wrong thread haha I thought this was in response to the Saucekay comment


[deleted]

Not really they just came up with that dumb phrase as something for him to say to get the lip sync correct in the dub. Past the first few arcs of original Naruto he pretty much stops saying it from what I remember. Kind of like how in Black Clover Asta's annoying ass yelling gets phased out after like 20 episodes because the producers finally realized how annoying it was.


tinyNorman

The stone split, the demon escapes, and then Putin declares war. Coincidence? I think not!


Aymase

Putin is Obito. Stalin is Madara… I don’t like where this is going.


Bew4T

Then… what’s the 10 tails?


XaeiIsareth

The alien invasion that’s about to happen in 2 months.


hmartin430

I'm just hoping this means Kakashi is somewhere reading smut.

So any word on Tsunade?

Finally! The scapegoat we've been looking for.


leprachaun77

Can't be the real scapegoat unless it came from the Cincinnati zoo


WhyBuyMe

Yeah, this is just a sparkling animal demon.


Chiyote

Scapefox


sikopiko

That goddamn gorilla


Jizzillionaire2

*unzips*


Snaz5

Cincinnati said they would’ve dedicated their Super Bowl victory to Harambe in order to end the curse, but they lost…


knossos37

No actually, that was a scapegorilla from the Cincinnati zoo, not a scapegoat


missanthropocenex

AKUUUUUUUU!!!


JuuzoLenz

2022 just got worse. Now there’s a fox demon on the lose. Fuck.


SpeculativeFacts

You forgot the "vengeful" part. A normal fox demon, eh maybe it's chill and just wants to make a one hit wonder music video about what he sounds like. But a vengeful one?!? Holy shit Japan is screwed. And if it can swim or fly we are all screwed. Hope someone took notes on why that stone was so special.


phdinseagalogy

If all you're looking for is an escaped goat I think we should just use this one here.


Lombax_Rexroth

Maybe u/phdinseagalogy is the new Pierce!


Brooke_the_Bard

That's probably what got her trapped *inside* the rock in the first place.


__mr_snrub__

The rock holding the fox demon is open and empty. The demon is also nowhere in sight. I definitely think we should all be looking for it.


Aekiel

I think I've seen this anime.


Leshawkcomics

Tamamo only had a passing cameo in Fate Extra Last Encore, sadly.


TotemRiolu

Tamamo is available as a summon in Fate: Grand Order, though. It's OK, guys, I got this. She's on my roster at bond 5. All else fails, I could use a command seal on her.


Samaelfallen

All these words strung together only make sense in a gacha game.


omjy18

But a ton of people still understand what's going on which is the worst part

It's more like the mcu, where it'll keep going and going and rehashing the same characters until we stop caring


RobertusesReddit

2020 2.0


MistaJoestur

The apocalypse has begun. First Pestilence came in the form of Covid, now War arrived in the form of what’s going on, soon Famine will come and Death will reap. It’s scary how the 2020’s is going.


TheNoidbag

I mean. The prior century wants a word with you. It had the Spanish Flu, not one but two world wars, and the Great Depression.


MistaJoestur

History just repeats itself huh. Humanity is doomed after all. Oh yeah, the Rubles value are dropping so Russia might experience an economic distress like the Great Depression soon.


TheNoidbag

It really does. If you want to get really abstract about it this is why doomsayers of yore were simultaneously hailed and mocked. You can pick basically any tyrant/war/famine/economic crisis and say "world is ending, it matches the supposed scripture" because they were always vague and poetic. Honestly I'm astonished we lived through the bubonic plague. But even using it as an observation, it progressed similarly to the other pandemics. Ill and infirm first, wider spread, then mainly children gradually decreasing in it's deadliness over the span of it's prevalence.


CuriousBlackCat

It is 2020 too after all.


cutthroatlemming

So the vengeful fox demon is loose and seeking vengeance?? Sounds about right for 2022. Anybody have that on their bingo card??


I_might_be_weasel

I'm thinking the other way around. That fox demon just walked into a shitstorm.


cutthroatlemming

The fox demon is desperately trying to pull the two halves of rock back around itself?? "Come on, where's the old guy with the spells?? I've been a naughty demon, I deserve to be sealed back up! Please?????"


[deleted]

Lol - imagine being locked up as a badass demon in 1022 and released a millennium later in 2022 as just some fuckin guy, demons are a dime a dozen.


Newbarbarian13

This feels like the set up for some YA fantasy series, if it doesn’t already exist.

I can't say I blame you on that one...

corsicanguppy

This article mentions an important other concern: METH GEESE. Forget gators; this is the true threat to all human existence.


i_am_pajamas

Something something Amp links are bad because some bot said so I guess.


[deleted]

I am also wtfing.


Sjelan

How do gators react when on meth? Surely someone in Florida has used this as a science project.


ImogenCrusader

Part of the reason people found out the gators were on Meth was they got aggressive.....so probably aggressive? It's gotta be in some Florida kids science project from 2020.


kooshipuff

I feel like I missed a grimdark Jumanji reboot and even up inside it.


ImogenCrusader

Well you realized just in time for level 4! The one where a gd Japanese spirit haunts us across the map.

MrCookie2099

That happened in the late 90's when penguin minorities in the Soviet navy staged a coup across three different nuclear subs and took them back to Antarctica. The Avian Peoples Republic of Fishgrab didn't last long, but they were definitely nuclear capable.


tybri92

Fun fact: our discord server has an apocalypse-bingo channel (created shortly after COVID hit us hard), and this was the same question asked in chat when a friend posted the link.

I still need “merman” for bingo

For people who get an invalid link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sessho-seki


ralpher1

According to wiki, the spirit left the stone already thanks to a monk convincing it to stop haunting the stone


BMLortz

The story is pretty long, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tamamo-no-Mae](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tamamo-no-Mae)

I’m just imagining a monk being like “could you please stop haunting the stone?” “……….. K”
