It will always peeve me that Peach and Daisy have their neck charm from their dress on their Chance Time icon, and the same will be for Jamboree.

I agree, the neck charms make their Chance Time icons look like mounted head trophies from a hunting trip.
Anime is seeing the smallest, cutest character you've ever found, then looking up their wiki page and seeing 6-A tier powerscaling. For reference, that is continent destroying level. IN A SLICE OF LIFE ROMCOM SHOW WITH OTHER RELATIVELY NORMAL CHARACTERS

Some people are just born poor and some people are just born successful.

How are you born successful? Does success not come from your achievements?

It entirely depends on your metrics of success.

If success to you is a personal confirmation that you have accomplished the goals you've set out for yourself, then yes, success is built off of your achievements.

If your vision of success is based on normative societal views (i.e. achieving fame, fortune, etc.), then you can absolutely be born into success. Celebrity children are already in a position of "winning", and even if they aren't, the advantages they enter into can be crucial to achieving success. Somebody born into money is going to have far more ability to navigate the world than someone who isn't.

It's a toss-up. Theoretically you can say that success is entirely individualistic, but it's hard to deny how systems of inheritance shape what can or can't be successfully accomplished.

Is it true that the first comic issue of Fantastic Four established a lot of canon, but none so firmly as Reed Richards' inability to read a room?
