Honestly i dont remember his S-link at all. Is he still in the FeMC route?
I think they did him perfectly and he was portrayed the way he was meant to be.
ew. why track?

The gave you three choices, one of which was Kendo, and you picked track. Disgusting. Even the movie picked Kendo.
Nope. FeMC's route is all of the SEES members + volleyball club girl and nurse girl

I think its volleyball instead which is way better just for the dumb p4 reference.

Nope, thank god.
He's certainly not likeable.
The worst part is I kept giving the asshole a chance, thinking the next rank would tell me something that would explain why he's been terrible, but he just got worse. And worse. And worse.
I get that he's being compared to his brother or whatever, but that excuses almost none of what he did or how he acted. He's just an asshole.

I didn't know there were other teams.
I chose soccer instead of BasketBall in P4

Honestly, I'd have to unironically say that it's a little of column A, a little of column B. Is there really any televised media in Spanish isn't either news, sports, telenovelas (i.e. Spanish soaps), shitty reality TV, or shitty sketch comedy shows? I figure the closest thing I'd get to a genuine good piece of Spanish media would be Pan's Labyrinth (which of course I couldn't see at the time due to age and due to "you'll never be able to date a girl to that type of shit movie"). Something instinctively tells me that if that movie was completely redubbed in English it'd have to be a miracle job for it to achieve the feeling it originally did.
At the same time, though, even if I was raised under a fallacy, it's still something I lived for literally at least 18 years. And with not receiving any proof to the contrary for so long, I guess it's simply a habit now. Like, I don't think EVERYTHING should be dubbed. At the same time, there's moments where I'm watching a thing and would like the choice. I don't trust myself to evaluate things like acting ability and timing when it comes to a language I don't understand.
TL;DR: I was stubbornly raised to be stubborn and it's taken me like the past year or two to expand my horizons.
I could make a case for Inumuta vs. Sanageyama, but the short version is that both are doing mildly significant things and meet with like 80% failure. One handles it way better than the other. The other is also associated with the show's near breaking point of suspension of disbelief for me, as well.
I legit don't think I can ever watch episode 6 of KlK ever again, man.

I did the same playing them blind, but I realize it's dumb. I think towards the end of P3 I got a few ranks in from Swimming.

How good is your Spanish? My dad tried teaching me some when I was a kid but it didn't work and I took Spanish in High School but I don't remember any of it so I'm Hispanic but don't speak any Spanish, sadly.

I will once you admit subs are better than dubs or when Zed renounces Yukiko
There's also a swim team...
He was just deluded and up on his high horse. I mean not all people are good, and it kinda worked with the theme of P3.
That's why you always check instead of picking the first one you get to! :l

Still so good.
It isn't battle shounen, or will ever be, the mangaka just really likes taking reactions to extremes
Maybe little bit of context is needed for this panel though:
The girl with the sparkly eyes is usually an unfeminine, mean and cruel paparazzi type person so her acting like a magical girl is really unsettling
I joined the opposite team of nosebandage because I hate that guy. Then he showed up anyway and I died inside.
Basketball is also just a better sport.

I'd rather play Dengeki Bunko again.
And I'm never playing Dengeki Bunko again.
My Spanish is in the weird limbo zone of "I can understand the general gist of like 85% of conversations but the moment I open my mouth I engage in an endless cycle of tripping over my own dick". I'm a listener, not a talker.

Nice. I don't know if I'll replay all the games, but I am going to play through FES again.

Request 12 of Flower, Sun and Rain.
But this isn't the craziest part of this chapter.
Shit is getting super nuts and fascinating, I love it. Especially with all these connections to the Silver Case making me want to spend money on a copy. This game continues to simultaneously be the best and worst thing ever.
Unfortunately, unlike Bill Murray's numerous attempts to kill himself in Groundhog Day, Sumio Mondo DID NOT come back to life after the day reset. With the main character now dead, the game focuses on special investigators Yoshimitsu Koshimizu and Remy Fawzil, both being characters from the Silver Case. They arrive at the hotel to meet the manager, and we see Mondo's corpse in the back area of the hotel. We're told that Catherine was stolen from Mondo after his death by the island's resident thief Step. Koshi spotted him earlier upon reaching the island, and gives chase.
This leads us to the island's shopping center, where Koshi sneaks up on Step inside a store to apprehend him. However, Remy contacts Koshi just as this happens to reveal that Step is a fucking human bomb. Koshi escapes the building, and Step's explosion not only destroys the shopping center but also the plane explodes immediately afterwards.

But this isn't the craziest part of this chapter.
At the end of every chapter prior, there has been a brief cutscene of a girl named Toriko Kusabi chasing after her pet pink crocodile Christina, usually tracing the steps of where Mondo last was that day. Here, Toriko catches up to Christina, and the croc proceeds to complain to her about giving him a girl's name (yes, a male pink crocodile). She arrives at the lighthouse Mondo visited the previous night and encounters Sundance Shot. Not only does she know he's the one that killed Mondo, but also calls him by another name: Kamui Uehara, a deadly assassin from the Silver Case's backstory where he killed several government figures and was afterwards killed himself. The rest of the conversation is...I'll admit, I'm not sure what the result of it is because it appears that Sundance is causing the island's time loop. It looked more like Toriko and Sundance ended up at some sort of agreement before the reset.

No P5 MC is just a bad guy from WWE like Seth Rollins. Btw does anyone know why the shirts that Seth Rollins wear have water on them, like as if Rollins had just washed his hair and didn't dry it so water drips from his hair?

I just regard as part of the story while realizing they did bad things, but maybe the idea I was supposed to like him or so,ething just made me honestly loathe him
I guess, but maybe he just really pushed my buttons. I hated every single moment I spent with him, and I was impressed I actually hated a character, I normally don't have feelings like that.

It's super dumb. Missing content is the dumbest.
amazing.. Truly amazing.
Ah, okay. Extreme reactions are okay as long as they aren't over done.
Here's what I'm betting on. Baseball, tennis, and maybe a dance class. Maybe it'll be all style related, who knows.

P5 MC is Brock Lesnar.
Everything should be just like Future Diary.
Gotta get out of Prison school.
I think trapshooting would make sense. Or an acting class, which would be cool for the phantom thief angle.

Ehhh, yeah I probably should. I handled SMT1 alright so P1 can't be that bad.
You kidding? He's awesome. If there's a weak link in the Part 3 crew it's either Iggy or Avdol. Especially since
Avdol was actually supposed to die
Just fight random people on the street.

Literally would make my fucking day.
Expectations are everything, man. If you speak one correct thing in another language, the people around you expect that you know that language and will want to hear more. Every time you have to dash their hopes by either saying you can't follow it up or you just straight up fail basic pronunciation and get known as the local gringo. Now imagine that situation happening like every time you talk to a person while you go through your life.
Polnareff is the Mako of Part 3 in my opinion. He's hard to love, but harder to hate.

You already at the
choice where you have to pick Kei or Eriko? You should probably pick Kei since he's a cool guy.
Well, he's not supposed to be likeable. Maybe I'm just a forgiving person, and i thought it was interesting how he portrayed a type of person in society.
Sure he's petty and jealous, but he has his own reasons and then manages to over come them, which is nice.
