Why is that, if I may ask? Because to be honest there is only so much you can do with the mainline games before it starts getting stale.

Yeah. I feel like with a lot of Yasuda's art he starts designing decent-looking stylish people and then just doesn't stop and it goes overboard. The girls and their anti-grav field is the most obvious, but there's also stuff like DeSu protag's ridiculous headphones.
It's actually a good thing unless you're a fan of a specific subseries that doesn't do well. They have much more exposure if one series takes off (See
ersona)Enix had this problem during the 90s of not being able to branch out. Their only really major successful series was Dragon Quest.
This is good. Got a link for this guys other stuff?

are you talking about yourself
edit: this is a serious question because it kind of looks like you drew it, even if it's more of a rough sketchier style than you usually do and you also draw suggestive images of Naoto.
Yasuda's men are generally acceptable, if generic.
His Pixiv page has been linked before. I came across this on Tumblr and recognised his style. Apparently it's from his Twitpic page.
Nope. He's better at drawing than I am, unfortunately.
His art is also much more Japanese than mine.

Naoto's halloween outfit, which was also the basis for Dantis's catsuit outfit.
And is that an FFXIV piece there? Interesting...

Well it isn't really a bad thing as long as the mainline games continue. The spinoff thing messed SMT up during the PS1 era because they never made any, to busy with spinoffs. Like I look at devil summoner and think to myself, why does this exist, what is the game doing from a gameplay perspective that warrants it being a separate IP? Of course the raidou games are kinda different but I look at soul hackers and think, why didn't they just make SMT3? Apparently SH changed the way megaten games do things from a story perspective but why not apply that kind of innovation to a mainline title? I'm fine with modern megaten spinoffs because they are so different but every time I look at the 90's shit, I think "why"?
I'm not a massive fan of things like devil summoner and SMT isn't even made by the same team as the persona games so I doubt you could blame the lack of SMT games on persona. I just kinda feel like a lot of the 90's megaten games are just filler and they would have been focusing making less and more games that differentiate from each other (of course this isn't really a problem now).It's actually a good thing unless you're a fan of a specific subseries that doesn't do well.

Please no
I was wondering why the designs were so familiar-looking.

Can you me and Dantis start a coalition to destroy all of these heresies forever?

TBH I never understood why they made Devil Children/Demikids. Because I felt it was more of a weird game to make on their part, with trying to be Pokemon game with some SMT elements for kids. Which still dosen't make any sense when you think about it.

Have you played it? Dark Version is a great game. Fun yet challenging, and it has a more gripping story than you'd expect.

I really really hope that deviliser game isn't a new devil children/demi kids, I'll fucking loose my shit if so.

No I haven't. I have heard of it, but never sat down to play it. What is the gameplay like?

It has all the trappings of SMT. Demon negotiation, turn based battle, fusion. It's just in a Pokemon shell.

Yeah I'll try that. And it dosen't look too expensive to buy(the dark version at least), unlike some of the older ATLUS Games I've come across.
He's quite good.
This is a good rival for you Dantis. If you and Naoto are really OTP, you'll have to fight to prove it, my friend.

Don't get Light. It's easy and the story isn't as good. Dark is great. I bought a GBA just to play it.
Should've been done in the form of One Piece when they all are raising their arms up to show their symbol of friendship.
So here I am level 30 in
minding my own. Just mopped the floor with
and I go to open the chest in the same room.
All of a sudden I get a warning that
but I ignore it and open it.

Amorous Snake
All of a sudden I get a warning that
theres some evil force in this chest or whatever and i shouldnt open it
Death himself jumps out of that bitch. The fucking Reaper, bruh. He straight washes my whole team. Based God take the wheel.
too lazy
oddly I actually have a reupload bound to my right click menu but it didn't seem to work for some reason
That's exactly what I use. ;p

A question, since many of you are more acquainted with the anime industry than I:
Just how worried should I be about the quality of the new Sailor Moon series given that (A) it was delayed like half a year, (B) it still has no concrete release date besides "sometime in January, probably", (C) literally no media for it has been released beyond saying that this one pop group is doing the theme song, and (D) it's a nico video exclusive? Like, these are pretty big red flags, right?

I'm not sure why I'm laughing so hard at this.
But it is, that's exactly what the pic is. Instead of the X on the arm, they're using the armbands.
Bonus points for thinking like I do that they're doing it as a show of solidarity to Minako for not getting any canon love.
The new Sailor Moon is a myth to me until proven otherwise.

Dare to dream.
I don't know much about nico, but those other three are red flags for pretty much any media. So yeah.
I'm assuming this is somewhat of a reference to this scene:
EDIT: Oh boy I can't read posts that are literally three posts above mine.
"Daaaaaaaaaaancing All Night" killed me.
Oh man I am LOVING that. One Piece is the best.
You're good people.
*High five* That chapter 731 too. Probably the One Piece chapter of 2013 for me. Hope Toei have a proper budget in mind for the animation of the Dressrosa Arc to give it enough justice (in terms of animation), Enies Lobbies is still my favourite One Piece arc for now. Let's see if Dressrosa can top it.
The best way to get caught up atm is to probably watch the whole Water 7/Enies Lobby arc on. At the beginning of the Enies Lobby arc they take like 10 episodes to just recap each of the crew's backstories and stuff, just before getting into Robin's.
...of course that was still probably over 200 episodes ago... @_@

Honestly the best way to catch up is the manga. You can read through it really fast and if you want to see a particular arc animated then just watch that arc.
If you're going to just watch the anime though, make sure you know what the filler episodes are and skip 'em. None are worth watching imo.
