  6. MOB PSYCHO 100 Season 2 is coming to the Winter Simuldub and I'm really freaking hyped about it. Its def one of the most underrated series of the past few years. The animation is gritty and wild, the action is amazing, and the comedy is outstanding. I can't wait!

     

  7. Binged a few Netflix originals over Christmas. BAKI - Eh, don't waste your time. I watched this because it was advertised as a super violent anime, and it is. But the story is shit, and I guess I lost some context because its a season 2 like deal for an older anime. Even then, the story doesn't make much sense and ends in what feels like half way through the season. Its just a bunch of roided out dudes doing a few bone crushing moves while spending most the time boasting about their martial arts style as they miraculously recover from fatal blows. Hero Mask - It was ok. The story fell a little flat for me, and the ending didn't seem fitting as the just threw the "mastermind' villain in with 3 eps left. They couldn't build any emotional investment in any of the characters. They tried so hard to keep you in the dark, they succeeded to the point where you didn't really care about anyone. The action and violence was great though. Sirius The Jaeger - The best of the three. Its basically a Vampire hunter type anime. Lots of action, blood, and a decent cast of characters to boot. Not really something I'd say "YOU HAVE TO WATCH THIS!" but its worth watching if you got nothing better to do.
  8. I remember when I use to be a huge fighting game fan. I always like to read about the old series I use to play. Apparently 2B is way too strong in Soul Calibur 6. She launched yesterday and people are crying about her already... I'm like no shit, shes OP as hell in the game shes from. XD I called it when I saw the trailer. I honestly wish she'd be a new Smash Bros character.

      I haven't played Soul Caliber since the second one so I haven't been following it much. 2B looks like a great fit in the game. I wonder how often they do balance patches.

      The last one I played was the one with Vader and Starkiller. A friend bought it and I remember how frustrating fighting Starkiller was to unlock him. We basically took turns trying to cheese him with Vader by throwing him over the ledge for a double ring out. XD Eventually it worked.

  9. Yeah Bayonetta is OP as fuck. Her combos are insane, her air attacks, and the amount she can perform are way beyond everyone else, her neutral special is just as good as Fox if not slightly better becasue of the angle, her melee range is on par with sword wielders, and her smash moves are top tier in reach ability. Her only weakness is her ledge recovery, its slightly better than larger characters like DK and Bowser. If you get knocked downward, you're going to have to be really good with your timing to get back on stage.

  11. You'll have to report on the queue timed because I've read they're pretty bad even before this. They've blundered their way up to this point. This is the worst handling of a community I've seen in a long time. They should take a good 3-4 years off from battlefield after this game.
  12. I just unlocked Ridley, so I'm sure Bayonetta is in it. If you haven't progressed that far yet, the final boss, isn't the final boss. I was pleasantly surprised.
  13. The two best anime this season so far are Goblin Slayer and SSSS.Gridman. Goblin Slayer caused a huge uproar over its first ep.. which honestly is stupid. Plenty of acclaimed anime have had an uncomfortable rape scene. A heavily censored scene that took up all of 10 seconds of the episode. However, whether intended or not, it got everyone talking about it. After that, it resumed as a normal but violent anime. It also wasn't random, it established the goblin's as pure evil. SSSS.Gridman is your standard over the top Trigger mecha anime... but it starts out off the rails. I don't see how they can get much more bat shit crazy. That Time I got Reincarnated as a Slime, Zombie Land SAGA, and Double Decker: Doug and Kirill have all been fun and quirky though. Overall I'm enjoying this season even if I'm skipping on a few of the shows.

      Eh, as far as recap eps go it wasn't bad and it at least had the next episodes name at the end so next week should be a new ep (I hope).

      I just watched the episode of SAGA with Lily's dad. They didn't use CG for the end performance, and it was quite nice. I get that its more costly to do it this way, but man it looked way better. As techniques advance, I don't mind CGI too much. I guess I just like consistency way more though. The hybrid can be so jarring at times I much rather have either all CG or all drawn. The method is getting better though. Gridman, as you pointed out is probably the best usage of hybrid CG and animation I've seen to date. Double Decker gets everything right about car chases that FMP!'s last season got wrong. XD Even though I'm not a blu-ray buyer, It would be nice if they went back and animated all the performances in SAGA for the blu-ray/DVD release. I think Sakura and Saki's characters suffer the most in those sequences because of their more intricate and longer hair design.

      I'm pretty sure they'll go back through and clean it up as they always do before a DVD/BD release (there are huge differences in quality between the broadcast version and the home video release, I can name quite a few shows this is true in), whether or not the CG will be any better or not is another question (they usually just go back to fix animation issues that they let slide due to time constraints). I hope they do since I'll probably throw money at the BD release when they get around to releasing it here.

      Yea, Sakura and Saki suffer from it the most (Tae does as well but it works in her favor since she's not entirely there and her movements are CG friendly) which sucks because Saki is my favorite character. Sadly the next episode has a CG performance and it's not overly bad but it is cringy (you'll see what I mean when you watch it). It is frustrating though when you have a great episode like Lily's without using CG and you wonder why they just don't do that (besides cutting costs I don't exactly understand, especially when they had a great performance without it. I believe episode 8's performance isn't CG but I'd have to re-watch it to make sure).

  14. I am almost 100% certain these changes will stay, and if I would have bought this game, this is when I would have just stopped playing and felt like I wasted $60. I can promise TTK isn't why they're seeing a decline in players. Low ammo and now it takes more of it to kill? Yeah, nah...
  15. I don't think stage hazards apply to the stipulations. Even when I had a card that gave me the same advantage I was getting knocked out by the fire pilars... once I lasted long enough for the stage to evolve to that point I swapped to Captain Falcon and basically tried to stay alive and hope he would get KOed. I just beat that beam saber fight today. I was giant bowser with the otacon card. Giant Bowser with a beam saber covers a large area on a smash move. So does his fire breath. It was as bad as a fight were everyone went after the bullet bills non stop.
  16. I made it to the part of the map that was blocked off by the light and unlocked Ness. My best character. Now things are significantly easier, especially since I have PSI attack increase cards. I can almost get anyone to 100% damage with PK Fire within seconds. But before this, unlocking Bowser was key. Having Bowser with a giant card and increased damage supports make all those fights one shots or pretty quick battles at worst. Its pretty much cheating. The fire breathing Charizard was still an issue, I happened to luck out with him getting caught on a stage hazard for a KO. The fire damage reduction just prolonged his insane assault of relentless smash moves. Stamina fights with giant Bowser can get done in 2-3 smash moves. I still pull him out when there are ridiculous stipulations where the enemy basically goes ham with a bunch of items.. without giant Bowser you just get endlessly juggled until you're KOed. Jim Sterling is pretty much spot on with the asshole AI, at times its like playing pro players. I can't even imagine how the game would be in hard.. I'm only playing on normal.
  17. Now THIS is a trailer that's got me HYPED!!!
  18. I picked the Marth path first because hes was my best character out of the 3. I'm going down the villager path now. Bayonetta didn't give my much of an issue. I went into one of the dungeon areas and there was a huge charizard that breathed fire non-stop and was immune to explosions and fire attacks. I don't have a fire immunity card so he just destroys me. There isn't a way to hit him without taking the damage. On the Marth Path, there is an endurance battle with Shadow the Hedgehog where his attacks do more damage and this stupid assist trophy thing keeps attacking you relentlessly.
