Reading one of Miura ' s , and many other mangaka ' s reason for drawing Fist of the North Star . <| sep |> Yeah I ' ve seen the decline . It takes a certain character to fight anyway . Some just aren ' t into it aye . I ' m fine with no fights as long as you can see there is tension . I like it when they really get into it <| sep |> Which , say what you will about traffic in Vancouver , isn ' t the greatest alternativeAt rush hour , freeways are worse than Vancouver ' s road system , speaking from experience . The Waze app always tells me to at least partially avoid freeways at rush hour in cities like Toronto , San Francisco , and Seattle . But at off peak hours , freeways are MUCH better . Additionally , large trucks which don ' t actually stop in the city would take the freeway all the way through , whereas in Vancouver they have no choice but to go through city roads and contribute to congestion especially on hills made worse by the fact that many city drivers don ' t realize they need to give them space when turning , holding things up even more . I ' ve met a few truckers myself who bitch about the lack of a highspeed link between Hwy 99 and the TransCanada you go all the way through Richmond , Greater Vancouver , downtown , and North Van if your destination is in Whistler ' s direction , or you go through New Westminster if your destination is east . Go to Ottawa to see what a huge difference a freeway can make . I can drive the equivalent distance wise of Richmond to West Van in half the time it takes me to drive from Richmond to downtown Van , using Hwy 417 which cuts through downtown .
