IT'S ALIVE!!! 'A')/

Which part was this scene again?

It's from chapter 3 iirc.

It has nothing to do with "personal definitions" and everything to do with your own "personal" vocabulary. "Red" means "gun", "blue" means "light animals on fire" and "green" means "murder children", anything anyone else says be damned.

 

I'm wrong? Well, I wouldn't know since you have you own "personal definition" for "wrong".

Fine then. Let's be boring and just use dictionary definitions then, since in your world, everyone should apparently thinks in the exact same manner, and understands abstract concepts the exact same way, illogical me excepted of course. Let's ignore the fact that different words have varying connotations between regions, time periods, and peoples' personal backgrounds and experiences.

According to merriam webster: 

satisfaction - a happy or pleased feeling because of something that you did or something that happened to you

entertainment - amusement or pleasure that comes from watching a performer, playing a game, etc.

If I were to extrapolate, eternal entertainment would have the exact same definition, except it would be "eternal amusement or pleasure" instead of just amusement or pleasure.

Please tell me again about how these two are mutually exclusive.

So his power is to make dreams come true? Heh.

Why did that seem so badass?

Why did that seem so badass?

It finally happened!

 

Which part was this scene again?

It finally happened!

Finally he's doing something other than sucking!

What if there was a wish to erase other humans' life? Infact, would you be happy if right now I'm wishing for you to be disappear?Excuse me, I'm by no means trying to be offensive. Call it an eye-opener if you will.The problem with humanity is greed, and how wish is not always in good nature. Some wish are as harmless as baby kitten but imagine what would be happened to the world if all the wish would be granted, including every non-vanilla hentai scenarios, which applied right on your dear families and/or significant other. Still not bad enough? How about gore and/or any other morally unacceptable-inhumane genre?Another problem within granting wishes is paradox. Let's say there's two people having crush on the very same person, how would that wish be granted? Would a double be created? Or would the other person will be deleted for the sake of the wish? What if the said crush is actually loving the third person? Or if the crush's parents are wishing their child to marry someone from prestigious family?Interestingly, Shiragi offered a plausible explanation to avoid this paradox: a world that eternally sleep; you'll be peacefully sleeping while having all of your wishes granted in your dream as it won't cross others' dreams.If he's not speaking in a metaphorical way, it would bring us another problem to the identity as a living being in general: what's the point of living if you're only through it with slumber until your death? You won't be eating, therefore no growing, and no reproducing. Then, what would be the differences between you and an unanimated being?

On the topic of wish granting:Having all of your wish instantly granted is like playing a game with full cheat on. Easy-peasy but there's hardly any satisfaction.There's only short-lasting self-entertainment with it.

Depends on your personal definition, I guess. I think of them as more of a cause-and-effect thing, where entertainment usually produces satisfaction, though not necessarily so. I should have specified that my definition of entertainment involves pretty much anything that stimulates, which could be the good feels you get from completing some task, exercising, eating good food, etc. I would have said eternal stimulation but it sounds kinda lewd. The problem with entertainment is that all satisfaction derived from it is short-lived, but that wouldn't be a problem if there was a guarantee of perpetual/eternal entertainment. It's very possible that this will turn the person in question into some sort of immortal Lotus-eater (because eternal and the fact that you can't entertain something that's dead), but I don't think a Lotus-eater has ever wanted to not be a Lotus-eater.

 

I tacked on the satisfaction part because otherwise the wish may end up providing entertainment of variable quality, which is what real life is anyway.

But on second thought, it would be more straightforward to just wish for satisfaction, or happiness.

Hoo boy, next chapter be like
