This is a blatant copy of the Toon Link chat thread. :3

Since I was extremely bored, I decided to just make a chat thread so we Ganondorf's can just sit back, relax and talk about all kinds of stuff. Not much of a problem, is it? I mean, if that darned Toon Link can do it, why not us?

I'll just start off by saying I finished watching the anime series Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann. Arguably the most epic series EVEEEEERRR. Has anybody else watched it? O:

EDIT: http://xat.com/Ganondorf_Brawlers - Here's an actual chatroom for Ganonners.

Nope. I haven't watched anime in a loooooooong time. >_>

And I'm being really pessimistic about Ganondorf these days. I dunno why. I just hope none of my friends are upset by it.

You should watch it, even if it's just the final battle. Two words:
Throwing. Galaxies.

Oh yeah and Ganondorf sucks. O: That's probably why you're pessimistic about him. But hey, you don't main him anyway XD

I don't watch too much anime. My room mate and I got a 40 inch 1080p hdtv over thanksgiving and we got really blitzed and watched the new speed racer movie last night. For the most part, that was really fun.

ZOMG, all of us get a little annoyed about Ganon now and again...I mean, you really have to exploit the dude's strengths to make him viable as he's got a lot going against him. My playstyle changes so rapidly though that I never get bored with him. Right now I'm all about catching mother f*ckers in the last bit of a foward UAir to just poke them forward and then RAR UAir/Bair them back the other way. UAir is so much fun.

That would make TTGL 20 times more epic... Hey, how's the Speed Racer movie anyway? I heard it wasn't all that good. x:

Yeah, don't main Ganon, but I just can't stop using him though. Maybe it's BECAUSE he sucks. XD

Yeah, and I mean I get a fair bit of respect from the people I play online when I do well against them with Ganondorf.

I'm going to a tourney Saturday (assuming I don't screw up). I will mainly be using G&W there, but if I come across any other G&W mains, it's GANON TIME!

Sonics I counterpick Mario with. Snakes I'll counterpick ROB if I get desperate.

I used to watch Naruto and Bleach...but...they are waaaaaaaaaaay too slow.

I've also watched Genshiken, which is the ****. Like, a fairly realistic portrayal of otakus lol.

About 70% of it was highly entertaining. The races were really fun to watch, but most of the sentimental sh*t was lame. We just wanted to watch a really crazy looking, psychedelic cartoon. Mission accomplished.

Never heard of that anime. I watch anime a lot, though. Death Note being my favorite, Bleach coming second.

Has anyone of you seen the latest two episodes of Bleach? Where Byakuya fights Zaraki? It's titled "Quiet Anger". Byakuya's almost as badass as Ganondorf..

I used to watch Bleach and Naruto, but both started to really annoy me. I still read the Bleach manga, which is pretty fun. From the Big 3 (One Piece, Naruto, Bleach) I like One Piece the most though, because of it's silliness.

Ray, you should watch TTGL. It's a mecha anime, but I liked it a lot even though I'm not usually fond of the mecha genre. It's from the same guys that made FLCL and Neon Genesis Evangelion though - that should at least tell you something.

And before I forget - you might enjoy the Bakuman manga. It's by the same team that made Death Note. Here's a link: www.onemanga.com/Bakuman . It's relatively new, so there won't be an anime for a while.

That does sound fun. xD I should rent it sometime or something...

Good luck in your tourney. :D Show them how good the G-Man is in friendlies, they'll remember and give you shout-outs, which will certainly make you feel loved. Don't be afraid to bust him out, same with Mario.

I've heard of Genshiken but I haven't decided to watch it yet. Lately I've been busy with a LOT of video games... Fallout 3, Sonic Unleashed, Mega Man 9, Paper Mario... I haven't played Brawl in weeks ;_;

I'll just leave you some music before I go to continue Fallout 3: Oh yeah!

EDIT: Why do I type so much

Flying Dutchman, just to grab more attention, you should add "general discussion", in front of this thread's title.

Well, seeing the way that this discussion is going, I'm going to have to proclaim myself the King of this thread. Seeing as how I'm the major anime buff around here.

Naruto is super slow, indeed. That's one real upside to anime miniseries like Samurai Champloo: The story is already complete, so there's no filler. Speaking of anime, I watched the famous Akira movie on veoh.com the other day. It was english-dubbed (but it was done in the 90's, english dub was still good back then). If you haven't watched it, I definitely recommend it. It's definitely up there with the greatest anime movies ever.

I have to confess, I also was getting fatigued with G-dorf. But then my roommate was won over by Ganon's mythic ownage powers, and we started doing dittos and Ganon-Ganon team matches, which are a blast even if you're fighting cpu.

I've seen TTGL in subs, and **** it was awesome! I wonder if anyone's seen the dubbed version and the subbed?

I'm finding Ganon a character that I can pick up, and every KO i make is satisfying. Sure I have to work for it (wading through projectile spam, dodging higher priority attacks, etc) but nailing someone with a D-Air or F-Smash for a KO just makes everything worth it.

And I'm not so sure about you being "King" of this thread :) . I might just give you a run for your money.

*Tosses hat in the ring for being Thread King*

I've only seen a couple of episodes or TTGL...It's alright, I think I'd like it more if I started from the beginning, even though normally I'm not into mech anime. I like the weirder stuff, like Paranoia Agent, Boogiepop Phantom, Serial Experiments: Lain and Gantz.

I picked up Ganon a while ago, and I've always liked playing as him, just because he tends to be unexpected with what he can do. Now that I can do FoG almost on command, it just adds to the fun of playing him. Eventually I'll get tired of him and stick with Lucas and Ness (Don't know what it is about me and low tier characters....) then maybe go back to him later on.

Anyone here ever played/heard of Battle Stadium DON? It's a fighting game with Dragon Ball Z, One Piece and Naruto characters in it. Just got it yesterday, and it's a freakin' blast. It's somewhat like Smash Bros, but the specials and items aren't as stupidly broken as they are in Brawl. It's most fun with 4 people, since you all struggle over one life bar.

Okay I'm not really a mech anime person, but I still took your advice and watched the first episode of TTGL, just now. It's pretty good so far.

meh I don't watch much anime now, however I do like manga and Eyeshield 21 is shaping up to be as ridiculous as G Gundam, read anything before it and you'll love it.

P.S. Ganon deserves his own video game, Link gets old and lame fast

It gets worse for the next few episodes, but picks back up again and doesn't slack off until the end of the series, though the plot becomes fairly ridiculous, and becomes laughably ridiculous
For the second half of the series

ttgl is great. ganon is great. especially in doubles where your partner just launches your opponents into the storming. and the over B tech chases just feel so good. one piece gets crazier and crazier. its like you feel the situation is hopeless for the guys, then something happenes to make everything awesome.
i stopped watching bleach and naruto, but i read the manga. actually the only anime i really watch now are gundam 00 and mitchiko to hatchin. soul eater is good, and speed racer movie i enjoyed, because i played kartrider back in the day with mirrordrifting and such.
code geass was pretty epic and so are the classics like cowboy bebop and fmalchemist. fmpanic was good and i liked its second season. gun x sword is a nice mech anime. black lagoon is pretty dark and the most cliche of all anime id hafta say is busou renkin, still good though. watched most of the major anime. but my favorite might hafta be scryed or one piece.

im going to shuttup now. any questions?

Yes! Ganon chatroom about nonsensical and completely unrelated sh*t! Sticky right away!

Actually, what would be cool is to turn this into a chatroom/read this before you post kind of thread. And include in big bright letters "We know about the instant down B landing animation. It sucks so stfu." Or we could turn it into a kosk hate thread.

So anyways, I decided to check on the Pikachu boards for the first time in a week, then I saw a match up discussion thread asking about info for the Pika vs. Ganon match up. When I checked on the cooresponding thread for my secondary (Ganondorf, of course) I noticed stuff about "Gerudoing". I know it's his race, but as to what the hell it means is beyond me. I saw "Gerudo->Jab=16%", went O_O and clicked on the link to the main part of the Ganon board. Then I saw this thread's title. Oh, how easily I get sidetracked...

Watch this vid:
http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=QnivIw_DlNo
Imagine Ganondorf as "The Helix King", and Marth is Simon

Then go to about 1:56 of this vid:
http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=uCpd4OpWNV4
If the resemblance to a certain scene of TTGL doesn't ring a bell, THEN MY ****, YOU NEED TO ****ING WATCH IT AGAIN. That resemblance is what made me decide to main Ganondorf. That, and the fact that I now can't help but yell "LAZENGANN....OOOOVERLOOOAD!" If I manage to connect with the Thunder-Hump of Ganon's Up+B.

tl;dr: **** YEAH, More TTGL Fans! Now to go back to that match up discussion I came to these parts for...

Yeah, I don't think we need to inflate the egos of the Marth mains anymore then they already are o_O. The Helix King does kind of look like Ganon when put that way, but I think there could be a better Ganon look-alike out there. I'm still looking though :) .

Basically... The first 8 episodes set everything up, then some plot, then EPIC, then some plot and then Ridiculously EPIC. (:

Lazengann is my favorite mecha in TTGL... Yeah, I can definitely see a resemblance between the Helix King and Ganondorf. Hell, the Helix King has Lordgenome as a name. He doesn't have Lord as a title, it's in his NAME. That just defines awesome.


PS: I'm still the Thread King. I mean, I run this thread, it's mine O:

Indeed it does, especially since I'm doing it. IMITATE ME, EVERYONE!

Indeed. Now if only they had better writers, I'd like the series more. However, no matter how ridiculously awesome TTGL gets, I have to say that I like G Gundam more.

And here I just thought it was a part of REALLY bad localization. Like calling Simon See-moan.

P.S. No. I'm the anime and manga master. I OWN this thread now.

No'p. You can hear it from the way they pronounce it in the Japanese version: "Rōjenomu", they actually SAY the 'Lord' part of his name. If they meant it as a title it would've been "Jenomu-sama", with -sama being the suffix for master, lord or another type of boss. And well, they spell it as 'Lordgenome' on the site. xD

And See-moan is just bad localization. Come on guys, Simon is an ENGLISH name, pronounce it that way...

P.S. No. I'm the anime and manga master. I OWN this thread now.
lol, beat it! Can't beat somebody who actually draws manga. :D

You guys remember Tenchi Muyo? Wasn't that just the most epic sack of win ever? Back in middle school, the highlight of my day was getting home, turning on toonami and watching some Tenchi.

I'm really hoping that PS3 will either get more exclusives or get games that get the same amount of service as their 360 versions. I really want to buy FXIII for PS3.

FFXIII Versus is a PS3 exclusive, isn't it? I'm a little dubious about all these companion titles (let's face it, they're just using the FFXIII name to sell extra games), but Versus does look kind of interesting. The ultra-realistic setting, at least.

I'll probably get one myself next year, although I was tempted to pick up a 360 for Lost Odyssey.
