Progressing steadily through P2:IS and really enjoying it. I particularly like the 'rumors become reality' mechanic and feel they utilized it to great effect. It was pretty heavily telegraphed prior to entering the caves but it was still amusing to exit and suddenly
Tangentially related, I was waiting for movers to show up this morning and browsing the thread on my phone. Google ads provided me with an ad for "Meat Processing Software".

I loved The Girl Who Leapt Through Time. If the Blu-Ray didn't cost an obscene price, I would buy it.
I am excited to see Wolf Children.
I have literally heard nothing but good things about it. I think it's on Netflix, so I'll probably watch it soon.
I never thought DN fell off, but I watched it on TV. I think there was a year-long gap between it, too.
If you enjoy it, give Summer Wars and Wolf Children a watch too. All from the same director, Mamoru Hosoda, and he is quite good at what he does. I believe Wolf Children is geting dubbed soon if that's your preferable way to watch.
That said, I haven't seen TGWLTT myself yet, even though I've had it sitting here for ages.
Might do that tonight now that I've been reminded of it.
I watched it all at once, so maybe it came across as different, but everything in the second half after you know what happened just felt unnecessary. And Mello and Near sucked.
But that would mean there are actually Misa fans.

Summer Wars is one of my favourite anime things of all time. Seriously; everyone should check it out.
I can aree on this.
I actually think Summer Wars is Hosoda's weakest work. Which isn't to say it's bad at all, as Hosoda is a fucking spectacular director, just that it felt like a move that tried to put too much on its' plate and the pace and handling of content suffered somewhat as a result. Still a great film, but would've gone down better with some trimming.
Everyone should watch The Girl Who Leapt Through Time and particularly Wolf Children, though. Easily his strongest, most confident work yet.

We should do a boxing style promo poster for the Waifu Wars episode.
The Waifu Wars World Grix Prix Finals.
wow you actually played it huh
No, he only imagined it. I don't remember these games.
Maybe you should try to avoid making unsubstantive posts in the future then - about a game you had never even played, no less!
You've been P4A's biggest detractor for so long. Now that's just mean!
If it makes you feel better, I still have, like, mega problems with this game. It is absolutely not a Persona game, which is where most of my problems stem from.
But I figured I should try and keep it positive in here. Everyone got rather upset with me in the Arena OT.

What constitutes being a Persona game or not?
We're about to reach last.fm forums level of elitism! Superiority seniority maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan.
I'll rephrase: It is not up to the standards of Persona 3 and 4.
Man, if you don't like me, and you plan to come here a lot, boy, are you in for a good time.

it would be remixes so they can have that awful vocalist awkwardly trying to sing in english while never once hitting the correct key, as is custom in the Persona series nowadays.
Dale North from Destructoid just remixed Heartbeat, Heartbreak, it's pretty good!

Times like this remind me how much I like Persona 4.
I really, really like Persona 4.
As an aside, that's a neat remix.
I find the broken English and gibberish lyrics somewhat charming.

this is the first we're hearing of it.
I'll be sure to make it more apparent in the future.

I agree. P4G is almost to awesome for its own good.

Good thing it doesn't!
I was trying to work out if he was being ironic, haha.
Only Arena and Golden, brah. I love everything else.
But man, those two games really rub me the wrong way. You may have noticed.
Can I jinx you over the Internet?
woosh
I was trying to figure out if pizzaroll was being ironic or not. hahaha

I enjoyed Arena, but I agree on Golden. It takes P4 in entirely the wrong direction. I think Arena was more true to P4's tone than Golden.
Nah, the joke is that it's too good for the SMT series.
It's kind of what I was saying, but if you want to forge your own path...
I feel like Arena is much more shallow than P4, though most of my problems come from the way the story is presented. If it was more concise, and a bit less fan-fictiony, I wouldn't be as bothered by it.
I complain about Arena (And previously, Golden) a lot, but it's just text. In reality I'm chill.

Golden is even MORE fanfictiony. But if Arena is the crazy action/sentai kind of fanfic, Golden's the eroge.
