How did that game fair?
I hear console exclusivity did it no favors. Hope it was one hell of a money hat by MS.

I played and Finished the PC version last week. Would have been my GOTY if I had played it last year, and its gonna take something special this year to knock it off from #1 this year

They took everything that was wrong with the last game (Rape-y stuff, torture porn-y deaths, no puzzle/tomb that you couldn't clear in 20 seconds, arrow-sponge supernatural enemies at the end) and fixed them, and added some really fun open area exploration.

funko pop is a blight

Those aren't even POP! Those are ugly Mystery Minis.
 
Also, I'd like to say that Love Live's dub is wasting its potential if they don't get Cristina Vee to sing her own songs. Seriously You'd be wasting it.

There's a big difference between Japan and Western voice acting - most seiyuu also double as singers for the purpose of character songs and shit like that. I'd imagine if they are dubbing a series about songs the songs will be dubbed as well.
 
I just watched the Maken-ki season 2 trailer and for fuck's sake......Funimation has no sense of tact or class anymore.
There's being gratuitously lewd and clever. And then there's being gratuitously lewd and bland.

To be fair that's been the norm for anime for the past seven or eight years. The average anime is some mix of lewd and bland.

Gratuitously lewd and bland could be used to describe a lot of ecchi shows out there TBH. Maken-ki is probably no different.

To be honest, I don't think it's possible to show class or tact with a show like Maken-Ki.
 
Someone has to capitalize on bad ecchi shows.

Yep, those are light novels. Although Maken-Ki is a manga. You'll never guess what the mangaka did before Maken-ki.

Sounds like anime.

I consider myself a pretty lewd guy, but the way that trailer was cut was going too far into the abyss.

That sounds like a "challenge accepted" if I've ever heard one. *goes to find the trailer*

Edit: "Their magic is breast in class"

Thanks for the mammories, Funimation, but that pun wasn't worth tit.

"Let me tell you a little something about motorboating. If it's gonna be done, I'LL BE THE ONLY ONE DOING IT!!"

..........a guy got paid to say that. With EMOTION.
Where can I get that job?!
 

BatDan

Bane? Get them on board, I'll call it in.
How bad could it possibly- *sees thumbnail* Oh wow...
*watches trailer* ... Anime was a fucking mistake.

Fanservice once in a while is fine.
But if you're going to have it where it's huge tits, panty shots, ripped clothes, locker room scenes, and just all kinds of skin at a constant rate, you're better off making porn. Just make porn.

this argument is false

FALSE

besides, if the whole show is literally fanservice, then you know what you're getting into

Toonami next week to be nothing but the Love Hina specials/movies to celebrate Valentine's Day.

so I think I might have said before in here that I hadn't actually seen all of Dragon Ball Z

just through the defeat of Cell

so I've been going through the post-Cell stuff over the last few days, and just got up through the first few episodes with Buu.

So my main problem is that they immediately do the thing where everybody but the saiyans are completely useless. And then they make Gohan look bad. And also I thought Videl was cool, and then they had a dude beat the shit out of her for like three hours, and then she got better, and now she just kind of disappeared after she told Trunks and Goten where to go. What happened to her? She hasn't even gone back to the martial arts tournament to tell all the secondary characters what's going on with Goku and the team.

Also Mr. Satan isn't that funny to get all this screen time.

Some of the fighting is still good though.

The Buu saga is terribly paced, and it's one of the reasons I was looking forward to the Kai version.
But that's not coming out here. (dammit)

That said, the Buu saga does have one really good moment for Vegeta.

I remember the stuff with Hercule kinda coming out of nowhere during the Cell games, way too many shenanigan scenes, and it kinda brings everything else down.

the idea is alright

this pro wrestling style blowhard who thinks he's the best, only to realize that he's entirely outclassed and then try to bluff his way through it?

it works

sometimes

in small doses

but every episode we get five minutes with this dude acting a fool

Are you guys really questing the greatness of Hercule?

He beat Cell you know.

there's just too much of it

like, okay, I get it. he's pretending to be strong for the crowd and he thinks the real characters are just up to some "cheap tricks"

move on, already

oh right, tomorrow's DBZ episode is /the/ Trunks episode. I remember this being quite the hubbub in middle school.

also goddamn why do these shonen shows suck at female characters so much?

like even when they keep up with the dudes as far as being useful, they're so fucking deep in the thirst for the main character that they should really be wearing scuba gear
