can someone tell me where the origin of "Every Guild Has An Underground Arena To Test The New Adventurers" trope came from? I'm genuinely curious bc it's everywhere?

I don't read/watch enough high fantasy to know the origin
#isekai #fantasy #anime #guild #fiction

Scene from The Banished Court Magician Aims to Become the Strongest (2025)

"Welcome to the guild's underground arena!"

Still frame from the anime in which a paved rectangle lies in the middle of a hexadecagon room with stands and two competitor entrances.

From The Great Cleric (2023)
Inside of the underground training facility/arena space under the guild; While it has no seating, there is a low wooden fence that surround the area, the stairs and entrance leading directly to it. HIgh on the wall seems to be some boarded up windows and decorative shields.

I could go on for an hour with out mentioning which anime it is, actually.

[ #DigimonBeatBreak | #Gachiakuta | #comic ]

"I've been getting into this new Anime recently. It's about this boy with anger issues who's never fit into the 'utopian' society he lives in. And then someday, he loses his only caretaker. Their last words to him are something like: 'You gotta change this world!'. So anger issues boy joins this group of 'Cleaners' whose job it is to deal with these mysterious monsters that are appearing everywhere."

"That's gotta be Gachiakuta, right?"

"No, I'm talking about Digimon BeatBreak..."

There's like... a specific set up from PT Sai that is so iconic, although I think I still struggle with the general CSP workflow, thus when I get too frustrated I just go back to my old copy of Autodesk Sketchbook, or boot up Krita.

Phryn @phryn.bsky.social · 1d

I thought it was Paint Tool Sai, but then I realized it's good ol' Clip Studio lol.

I really should reshuffle my CSP set up now that I think about it...
