This wouldn't have happened if Hibiki chased after Prelati.

I can't imagine Saint Germain will be in a rush to join the team now after they just killed her two best friends. Heck Prelati wasn't even really fighting them she was just speeding down the street then they showed up.
I recall my earlier belief that she will join them and instead will suicide bomb Adam and the puppet girl by the end of this and will be the true hero.

I wonder if they're even going to defeat Adam by the end, they announced seasons 4 and 5 at the same time and the only thing Adam's done other than have naked monologues is create a nuke while naked.

Who's Adam?
What, are they ripping off the first Angel along with ripping off Berserk Eva 01 in Symphogear now?

The show has now reached self-parody levels when they reach a new area.
"oh we've reached a new area"
"TOUYA THERE IS A HUGE WAR AGAINST AN ARMY OF THE DEAD THAT WE CANNOT DEFEAT WITH ALL OF OUR B-"
*wiggles eyebrows*
"Oh you've defeated them. Wow that was easy"
"FOOLS 'TIS I, THE ENEMY LORD. WITH MY POWER I'VE BEEN ABLE TO DO EVERYTHING, AND IT'S ALL THANKS TO THIS G-"
*steals*
"OH NO I'M DEFEATED"
fucking A lmao.

Yakuza Kiwami END
For some reason, I thought 17 years would have a major impact on people's ages that I feel dumbfounded for even thinking that.
Nishiki was a total bitch throughout the game, which doesn't help when everyone tells him how much of a bitch he is in comparison to Kiryu. Everyone loved them some Kiryu, even after he "killed" Dojima.
I think one of my criticisms though is that they didn't do enough to expand the music area. Like there's some more tracks here and there, but it's for the new stuff. There's a serious repeat of a lot of music that drags down my appreciation for it. It's not bad music, but it just helped me love Zero even more.
That being said, while there's less content, it does make it easier to be palatable for someone to play. Filling out your moves is much easier since you get more exp than you ever need.
I want fucking comics and non-H doujins on the wacky adventures of Majima and Kiryu.

The Aria kickstarter hit 360k, with a planned "get everything" tier to be added tomorrow.
I'm glad they didn't screw around and did all they could to juice the numbers.

I still hate how they locked the dragon style behind Majima encounters. And not even a "get majima to S rank and unlock most of everything" no. It's fucking do very specific things.
I don't even see the appeal of dragon style since using fully upgraded brawl and rush I was a god damn beast. I think the saving grace of these games is the wacky submissions which weren't as wacky as zero's, but still fun. And of course Kiryu's deadpan responses to everything sure do help.

Tower of Druaga 01
That was pretty bad. I was planning to drop it after this episode, but since it ended up being a pointless "it was all a dream" episode, hopefully it's not indicative of the rest of the show.

Gundam 00: A Wakening of the Trailblazer - Rewatch
Hmmm...we could tell an interesting story about humanity making first contact with an alien race and detail the conflicts that come with that and tie it to natural human behavior.
...OR we could just make the aliens gray metal triangles and squares that don't talk and have all the conflict in the movie boil down to them being "misunderstood".
See, these gray metal triangles and squares don't REALLY wanna hurt people when they attach themselves to them and start turning them into metal like something out of a horror movie. That's just how they communicate guys!
But don't worry! Our ever so well-written character Setsuna F. Seiei is ready to communicate with them with his quantum brainwaves! Because no matter who or what it is, if you communicate with quantum brainwaves then you instantly understand each other and any sense of conflict goes away! And it works! This touches the aliens so much they turn into a giant space flower as a symbol of peace.
They also hope you'll forgive them for all that killing business, that'd be grand.
The movie ends with a quote from Albert Einstein, saying peace can't be achieved by force, it can only be achieved by understanding. Well, all the understanding in this movie is done by super people shooting magic space particles out of their robots that sends you to a mind dimension.
How insightful! ISN'T GUNDAM GREAT?!?

I just want to say that I'm astounded by HunterxHunter's production values. Yes the direction isn't where I would like it to be but damn I'm getting animation of this quality 95 episodes into a series:

Most studios can't even do a consistent 26 or hell even 13.

I don't know if Aho Girl is getting a dub but if it does and they don't reunite the casts of Excel Saga & Azumanga Daioh then they've fucked up.
We did it, fam.
Doing it.
Well yeah. Reminded me (again) of FWWM. And it did make me think that there's a lot of setup for a 4th season.
So many threads just ran out of track.

I think I'm with everyone else in that thinking this will be resolved in S5. Pacing in GX was super brisk as if they were fitting a two cour show into one while this isn't quite as hectic. Figure we'll end with something like the GX episode 6 fight with Carol but with some godawful stinger that'll infuriate us.

The worst part is that the Dragon Kiwami attack is locked behind SS. You're more likely to beat it than unlock it.
On the other hand, it does get access to Tiger Drop, which does fucking insane damage, outpowering many of your Heat attacks.
That being said, Beast and Rush are definitely hot topics in this game. I wasn't keen on Rush in Zero (where I was with Beast) but Kiwami was a reversal on Rush/Beast
oh yeah thread in the OT reminded me i forgot to post about the live action Blade of the Immortal trailer that came out over the weekend

Aho Girl 10: Knowing how the "gal wants to find a boyfriend" subplot turns out in the manga just makes this episode even funnier.
Fully upgraded Dragon style is straight up broken, but because of that it's only really useful at the very end of the game, or NG+ Legend mode.

New Game Season 2, Episode 9:
You know, I keep almost forgetting this show is a show from week to week and I think that has to do with the fact that New Game just can't help be light and airy even when it tries being serious and it just washes over like so much whipped cream blandness.

I agree that killing the rabbit guy in one shot undercuts the whole escalation over his flaw but I see that moment as more of a point of revelation and consequential action that highlights he is no longer his old self.
As a character flaw it isn't entirely "insultingly bad" in the sense that his experience over what caused his fear is never made clear beyond an echo of Illumi's words. Even when he was straight up tortured by his other brother post exam arc, he was indifferent to it so what else could Illumi have threatened him with? If it's out of familial respect, keep in mind Killua openly admits of stabbing his mother in the face at one point(something his mother is actually proud of). By the time the pin was revealed, we had learned about Illumi's ability and it adds up in that sense. Not to say one can't expect more out of it but I'm just pointing out that it's not built out of baseless assumptions.

Didn't they say there were some kind of rights issues so they couldn't do all of the series in an AMA?

Sounds kind of like a reverse Captain Tylor... and that just reminded me Galaxy Tylor is a thing, damn it!
Still keeping up with and enjoying MHA, but it's the only show I'm still watching this season.
Boruto: Naruto Next Generations Episode 23:
Oh thank god this arc is over because fucking hell I don't think I could stand the hypocrisy of the bullshit about family values and strong bonds when Sasuke is literally the worst shonen dad I can think of.

Mother fuck Sasuke almost killing his daughter because he couldn't remember his face is just such an irredeemable action that no amount of empty words could save the credibility of this relationship. Also not buying that hasty cop out stating that Sadara is totally the legit love child of the worst couple in the universe. Speaking of show, don't tell, thi series try to tell me that Sakura and Sasuke truly have this love bond by having Sasuke kind of mumble confirm with about as much emotion as a brick wall. Getting across that two people are in love is not a hard thing but perhaps such a thing is beyond Kishimoto.
