No.

Nope.

There are no good anime songs.

 

[yami4ct]

No.

Nope.

There are no good anime songs.

What if I were to tell you there where only good anime songs?

 

[hwy_61]

I've always loved the Japanese version of the DBZ theme.

SHALA HEAD SHALA

 

[Antiwhippy]

There's no such thing.

Unless you're talking about listening to The Pillows 24/7.

 

[yami4ct]

There's no such thing.

Unless you're talking about listening to The Pillows 24/7.

I listen to Yoko Kanno's stuff and the Gundam Unicorn soundtrack regularly. There's also stuff from Eureka Seven on there which is a hell of a soundtrack.

Lotus Juice has done multiple anime soundtracks as well.

 

[TraBuch]

Did somebody say there was no such thing as a good anime song?

 

[Space Wanderer]

Oooh nooo, have anime fans claimed Yes as their own?

 

[Twin Tails]

This is a sick hanime beat.

 

[yami4ct]

Oooh nooo, have anime fans claimed Yes as their own?

I belive that JoJo doesn't just belong to anime fans, but to everyone.

Therefore Yes is safe.

 

[Tubobutts]

Oooh nooo, have anime fans claimed Yes as their own?

Yes. Who? The Band.

DBZ had some kickass tunes like Hikari no Will Power and another one I forget the name but it was used in the second ending of the DBZ Legends Saturn game.

 

[Death Metalist]

I never realized this, but Load Our Last Save Ninja Gaiden edition is probably my most wanted content on the site ever.

Not sure about the hands but Austin is uncanny.

Missed out on these earlier since I was busy but happy to catch up on them now. Man, is that poster gorgeous. Good shit.

Load Our Last Save: Ninja Gaiden

It's been over a decade, but hopefully we'll shake that ninja rust right off!

Did somebody say there was no such thing as a good anime song?

Let me treat you to the real good shit.

SUCK IT

 

[yami4ct]

If we want to go recent stuff, I've been listening to the Noragami music pretty regularly. Maybe I'm just revealing I have terrible taste, but the openings are pretty damn fun J-Rock.

There's also the recent Gundam show, who's OP might be the greatest music video I've seen in a while.

[Salarians]

The only anime song that actually matters.

 

[justjim89]

Damn, between a GBEast mailbag and a new LOLS I missed some good content today. Been playing through the end of Doom and brushing up on Fallout 4 before Far Harbor.

I wonder who handles the Far Harbor Quick Look. I'd like to think Austin would be involved since he was the most positive on Fallout.

 

[yami4ct]

The only anime song that actually matters.

You have very, very good taste. Utena is a masterpiece at every level, including music.

 

[Tubobutts]

The real only anime song that matters

 

[santeesioux]

Y'all need Jesus.

 

[yami4ct]

The real only anime song that matters

Anime is for jerks. Anime music is for everyone. Who doesn't love Space Jazz?

 

[Twin Tails]

Y'all need Jesus.

That reminded me of this. Not an anime song.

If we're gonna talk about recent Gundam and music, Gundam Thunderbolt needs to be seen almost purely for its amazing use of jazz.

Jazz music in space is a general trend I see really resurfacing in both western and eastern media. It's fantastic.

 

[Tubobutts]

Anime is for jerks. Anime music is for everyone. Who doesn't love Space Jazz?

If all anime music was Space Jazz and Samurai Hip Hop I'd agree with you.

 

[Jintor]

legit good movie btw. very chill.

 

[yami4ct]

If all anime music was Space Jazz and Samurai Hip Hop I'd agree with you.

Space Jazz is fully back now. I'm still hoping for the return of Samurai Hip-Hop, though.

I'm a fan of Action J-Rock as well, but that's clearly not for everyone.

 

[TraBuch]

Dragon Dogma's jrock thing actively kept me away from the game for a while.

 

[Antiwhippy]

There's jrock in dragon's dogma?

I got the soundstrack and it's all orchestral stuff.

 

[skLaFarebear]

I think he's talking about the opening theme of the vanilla release.

 

[Meneses]

The original release had a jrock theme song that played on the main menu and was amazing.

 

[KingKong]

Dragon Dogma's jrock thing actively kept me away from the game for a while.

Man thats such a great game. Its very stupid in a lot of ways but its the most fun Ive had playing a pure rpg (so discounting dark souls, deus ex, etc)

 

[Salarians]

THE WIND IS PUSHING ME

 

[Antiwhippy]

Oh weird, never encountered it.

 

[TraBuch]

And it was so fucking loud.

 

[yami4ct]

Man, vocal tracks in games are just the best. Why don't more games use them? It seems even Japan, which loves dumb vocal tracks with action, doesn't really make full use of them.

Oh weird, never encountered it.

Dark Arisen took it out I think? Did you play that version?

 

[Rhaknar]

Listening to a bombcast from a few weeks ago, email asking if you would touch poop for $20.

Clearly asked by someone that never had kids, or hell even pets!

 

[Antiwhippy]

I've only played the steam version.

 

[Meneses]

I've only played the steam version.

That explains it, it was only on the vanilla version.

They took it out for the Dark Arisen expansion and PC version.

 

[yami4ct]

I've only played the steam version.

Yeah. J-rock is only in the base console versions.

I don't mean to post some shit for people to step in here, but I really hope Giant Bomb never goes viral for the wrong reasons like the Angry Video Game nerd is. He's getting character assassinated left and right and even his wife is being brought into it. With the name Giant Bomb these guys wouldn't stand a chance.

I'm not a fan of his schtick, but man people are assholes and no one deserves to have their family brought in to stupid drama the internet manufactured. I'm surprised that hasn't happened to the GB crew in a big way.

 

[supermetfreud]

I really hope someone gifs Vinny's reaction to the camera settings in NG.

 

[santeesioux]

What happened?

He posted a video saying he isn't going to be reviewing the new Ghostbuster video and it went viral on Twitter and every clickbait site calling him a sexist even though he doesn't even bring up the cast. It's all over Twitter and you can tell people haven't actually watched it or know who he is calling him a sexist and even going after his wife. These are the type of people that you would think would usually be against this type of thing, but they're using some "gamergate" style tactics against him. Like even Patton Oswalt and Dane Cook are demonizing the guy.

 

[TraBuch]

Anybody that doesn't go see Ghostbusters is gonna be labeled a sexist, which is why it's going to be the highest grossing film of all time.

 

[yami4ct]

I really, really hope it's good. If it's not, though, the movie critic review scene is gonna be a huge mess.

I'm not a fan of Feig's comedic style, so I've pretty much written this off from the get go. What I've seen in the trailers doesn't seem like the kind of film he'd make, though, so I'm hoping it's just bad marketing and that people who dig his stuff will dig this too.

 

[nckillthegrimace]

Jeff is anime in jail.

People can get fucked.

Anyway, the movie looks like total shit. And it would still look like total shit if the crew were all male. It's not fucking Fury Road.
