The Rank up battles seem kind of.Unnecessary.
Not really, they determine what rank of boss battle you get. The higher the rank the better the reward.
I'm not saying the rank.
I"m saying the battles for them.
It just seems, unnecessary to have them.
They're like, 20 times easier than any battles you have for them.

Did you ever, you know, think to call into work. Or even head in and explain the situation to them?
Most of the time if you just call and explain the situations bosses will be pretty lenient about it as long as you don't have a negative work history.
But if you pull a complete no call no show then it usually get reflected pretty badly.

People read stories to emotionally invest themselves in them.
And that's all on top of the sole purpose of stories being to get you emotionally invested in them.
One, you have actually read through the story so far. Even though there is not much there, it is extremely difficult to read much in a story that you have no investment in.
Yeah, no both assertions are full of shit. Literature does not have a sole purpose nor does it need any purpose to exist. There is no objective reason for it to exist. Just because that's what you think makes a story worth while doesn't mean it's the reason it exist.
And again, you're arguing people need to invest themselves emotionally to understand something, or argue a point outside and maybe inside the sphere of context in the book.
No it isn't, they give you enough context to come to some conclusions. Not to mention I've read series in both western and eastern works.
None of these assertions have any merit to them. Everything else was fluff for those 3 points.
[edit]
If you want argue about emotions though, you could claim that I'm getting irritated towards some people's conclusions on the material in the story but that stems from disagreement and belligerence. If you're arguing I have to be empathetic (a state of understanding and reasoning not an emotional state) to make my own assessment of what's going on in a story you'd still be wrong.
You provide no justification to support your claims.
If you want to keep your standpoint, actually supply justification and not more "Nu uh, you're wrong." and then I'll respond more.
But as it stands, you've offered nothing insightful or new so bai.

Why do you think I meant anger when I said emotions?
Giving the nature of these sort of accusations involving arguments/debates/discussions in IB, I did make that assumption.
Can't speak for the other guy but it didn't make me feel grief or happiness.
The fact that you are willing to justify her actions through debate signifies that you have some form of invested emotions in the action.
What kind of emotions I don't really know as it could vary from person to person depending.
Actually no it doesn't. You can experience any form of media and talk about it's themes, characters, etc. etc. without getting "emotional". Take your logical fallacies elsewhere sonny.
That would be somewhat incorrect.
To objectively discuss something, is beyond pretty much anyone. This especially applies to stories. As you invest emotions any time you read a story.
Now that doesn't necessarily mean you have invested a great deal of emotion into something.
But the more you are willing to defend and argue a characters actions, the more it emotion it shows you have invested in said character and story.
That is, after all, the reason we read and watch stories. To invoke our emotions.
If you simply wanted to invoke just your thought processes, you would read technical manuals and the like, not stories.
Or maybe I'm just defending my viewpoint? Or maybe I find another person's conclusion to be illogical so I question it?
You're not proving your point by saying "NUH UH", maybe your way of thinking applies to you but it's pretty irrational to want to apply it anyone else. I can invoke my thought process by questioning different aspects of a characters thought process and actions. I can question whether they're moral or ethical in some cases. None of this requires me to be "emotional invested".
People read stories to emotionally invest themselves in them.
If you can't emotionally invest yourself in a story, then you do not like the story or anything about it.
I can tell why you are confused. It's because your impression of emotions is that of the extremes. Someone irrationally angry. Unbearably sad and depressed. Inexplicably happy.
It is true that when someone tells a person they are being emotional they are referring to them being at an extreme point.
But that is not what I mean when I say you are using emotions and being emotionally invested.
It'd be similar to the pathos side of argumentation.
It's not a matter that I believe you are invoking emotion when reading a story.
It's that you HAVE to invoke emotions to legitimately read a story and identify with the characters.
And I know you have done that because of two things.
One, you have actually read through the story so far. Even though there is not much there, it is extremely difficult to read much in a story that you have no investment in.
Two, you are arguing viewpoints of one of the characters as well as trying to describe things as you see them from her point of view. If you failed to invest in the character then you would not be able to address them from this manner. Instead you would be using a completely factual point of view.
A potential example of what it is like to read a book you are not emotionally invested in would be the required reading from schools.
It reads dry, slow, and you find it hard to retain information. If you ever read a chapter of a book and realize you don't remember the majority of it then you were not investing in it.
And that's all on top of the sole purpose of stories being to get you emotionally invested in them. Characterization, plot, setting. All the story elements are designed to get you connected so the story can convey a message. Whether that message is entertainment, sharing a vision, inciting an action or whatever is up to the device of the author. Or even the reader. But the story is written as to convey the message by getting an emotional connection.

-snip-I'm not sure if I should continue if you insist that a person who's been broken down to be responsible for circumstances others put her through, so this might be my last response. In the end of the day she fed information to people close to her "victims". Motivation behind that isn't immoral if the action is not immoral, the only suitable comparison I see to these situations is whistle blowing which is only immoral if the information given is false or holds no grounds. I'm not saying to not feel bad for Class Prez, just that unlike I know she's a victim of circumstance, and that I'm throwing your hypocrisy towards a character you seem to empathize more with. Although unlike the main character, she had more authority and power to stop something terrible from happening. How much of physical and mental effort do you think it is for her to report a few names to faculty and administration? "Stress" or not, main character was the only one clearly going through harassment of any sorts (when she recruits help from one of the "onlookers", she says that all the wrath of the other students will go to her), knowing that dissociating with her would result in more harassment is immoral. Being selfish and disregarding others need that are very serious is unethical for her as a Class President.
@Tak
Invoking emotions? What is it with you people and thinking discussion = GURR ANGRY!, I just don't agree that the main character has done anything wrong, regardless of her motivations, anonymously feeding information of wrong doing isn't immoral.

Apparently the manga was better at invoking emotions than I thought if you two are going to get into this much of an argument and it only has two chapters.
