    Sad news for anyone who has been hoping for High School of the Dead to return. The Creator and Writer Daisuke Sato passed away last week due to heart complications. https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2017-03-26/high-school-of-the-dead-manga-creator-daisuke-sato-passes-away-at-52/.113968 I...

    Shin Megami Tensei and Persona

    The irony of the current culture of gaming is that a lot of things people say you can't do were done decades ago. Now stuff like canon gay relationships are still niche and it doesn't help that it also happened in a niche JRPG on the PS1 but it happened. Funny enough I've never found Tatsuya's...

    Answer's is kind of "meh" It's good to see Baiken keeps the paper-screen slash. The Koi fish is interesting. But I need to hear the sound because that lone wooden flute before the bamboo drops is important. Also they really put her chest on full display and I'm still going to rag on that until...

    Shin Megami Tensei and Persona

    I will also defend P3 on the grounds that it was a new direction, but aside from the rough edges it tried something new and had a lot of heart to it. I even liked the "not being able to control your party aside from general direction" idea. It's story was also really nice and kept me interested...

    Jojo's Bizarre Adventure

    That's always been the case; Remember how Hamon allowed people to be mind controlled and it never happens again after the first time? It's just stuff like this feels like it's concrete but then I move to another part and suddenly all the rules changed a bit. There is an emphasis put on stand...

    Jojo's Bizarre Adventure

    That may be the case in IV. But stands like Metallica from Part V only exist within the body of the user (Should be a range of E) and isn't an ability stand like stuff you get in Part 7. But Metallica has an effective radius of several meters (it's listed as Range C or B) so at least for that...

    Jojo's Bizarre Adventure

    Also I'm finally going through the Part 4 anime in it's entirety. Got to Surface and suddenly the concept of Stand Ranges became something I needed to work out. Crazy Diamond has a D rating in range and is limited to 2 meters. Echoes act 1 has a range of 50m with a B rating. I've pulled together...

    Jojo's Bizarre Adventure

    It's not a punch ghost but Pearl Jam has always been my favorite stand. And from Part 7 I also got Oh, Lonesome Me, Tattoo You and Mandom. I actually think it was a bad move to make Tusk into a punch ghost and not just a cumulative upgrade to Johhny's spin. Soft and Wet though, feels a lot...

    Jojo's Bizarre Adventure

    Well it really comes down to two things. Can Scary Monster turn Dio/AnotherDiego into a dinosaur before they stop time and rip his head off? I think both are pretty terrifying abilities but I always tend to lean towards time stopping as being a fight ender. It's hard to come up with a counter...

    Jojo's Bizarre Adventure

    Scary Monsters diego was more charismatic and fun; but we actually got to see him for far longer and he was in the forefront of Part VII. The World Diego showed up for maybe 15 chapters and was just cocky but hadn't technically earned it since he mostly was riding off the coat tails of SMDiego...

    I just noticed that Zappa is sagging so hard in the bottom picture you can see his underwear. He's not a boxers or Briefs man. That and he went full Jojo. That part I'm fine with. Get a belt Sir! Man I'm just going to start playing +r again.

    That's all I want. Zappa, maybe a new ghost to add to the shuffle (You can get rid of the dog for all I care). Golly this is painful to sit through. I know he's in Rev's story mode.

    Guilty Gear Thread

    Actually thinking about it. Being able to counter in midair is probably the most significant buff to Baiken she's ever received. Depending on how her followups interact you're looking at a much stronger air to ground approach much like how her anti-air counter is super good. Minor Tangent, I...

    Huh. Those are the moves are interesting to me and I never seem to grasp the best time to use them. I did like them because at least once I was able to screw a friend by using the counterhit curse and tatami matting him into the corner. Thank you guiltybits. I wonder if they were removed...

    Perhaps I should have been clearer. Baiken isn't really a BB character in design. Characters like Raven, Ram, Kum, Bedman, Jack-O all look like designs I would find in BB. This isn't to say that they are bad designs mind, I just don't think they mesh well with the GG style from the older games...

    So has she lost her hanafuda card follow up moves that could seal buttons? They were called Baku in +R but I don't see them on the list here. There is nothing I can do to change this except do what I have been doing and not playing the game. Daisuke can do what he wants with his characters, but...

    I'm of two minds on the Xrd redesigns. Some are good, others are Potemkin. Then there is Baiken which is a character I'm fond of, but man if this redesign doesn't both excite and irk me. The new Kimono looks nice, still tatterd but what do you expect. Then you have the very, VERY, obvious change...
