I mean I haven't watched a new show since Yona of the Dawn a few months ago (still hope that somehow gets a second season, also a new favourite), and when I feel like watching something, I go back to an old one, lol. :p

It's good but it's not DAN DAN Kokoro Hikareteku.

Still pretty damn good, though part of me misses Chouzetsu Dynamic.

I'm hoping the servers don't crap out.
From an animation standpoint, I really like We Gotta Power. There's two really good shots in it, namely the one where We see all the versions of Gohan in Saiyaman's sunglasses(I just think it looks cool). And that transition of Gohan on the bike to him on the Flying Nimbus. Obviously, Cha-La-Head-Cha-La has a lot of iconic stuff that became standard in anime openings(and who doesn't like the shot of all the Z-Fighters at the end with Goku going Super Saiyan in the middle?).

I could talk about show openings for a damn good while. I got a lot of the Marvel ones on the brain.

The problem with Netflix Death Note isn't that it's Americanized, Death Note's story can work anywhere due to how the whole Shinigami lore works.

The problem with Netflix Death Note is that the acting, directing and editing is ****ing awful.

I do like We Gotta Power animation wise a lot, even if it feels hilarious in later episodes where Gohan obviously takes a backseat. The DB Kai OP for the Buu arc is pretty good too.

I've never been a huge fan of Cha-La Head Cha-La, I even outright prefer FLOW's version of it. The scenes themselves were pretty cool, especially the final shot.

Now that I think about it, if I had to pick a favorite DB opening from either the show or the games, this would be my top favorite.

I imagine the bulk of the budget went into Ryuk and Willem Dafoe.

If we're counting game openings, no doubt Budokai 2 takes it. 3 is really close and even though I prefer the 2D games, Tenkaichi 1 and 3 also have cool openings.

I imagine the bulk of the budget went into Ryuk and Willem Dafoe.
Why would it? Willem Dafoe just took off his makeup and appeared on screen normally. And it's great, more actors should do that.

Splatoon stops being fun when you lose every single match aginst the same people. That being said, I was not having any fun
I'm sorry about that. I saw what was happening and felt awful about it, but at the same time my freshness streak was abnormally high so I was fighting for my life to see if I could get the Hero Brella up to Superfresh.

Which I did, but eeep, I was hoping you'd be matched onto my team at some point.

At least if it's any consolation I distinctly remember you nailing me with the Tri-Slosher multiple times one match.

I agree with them two.
I don't even think they will get to the fifth layer before 13.

Also
Just give me this game already...
Rex's idle pose is dumb...
Pyra's idle pose is gorgeous
Tora's idle pose is cute, so is his blade partner's.

After hearing Tora's voice, his is way better than Riki's.

The new area's music is also magnificent.
Flamiis are making a return.

Overall it seems a little bit chil-
OH ****, THAT BATTLE MUSIC
OH ****, THE ELEMENTAL COMBOS
OH ****, THE UNIQUE MONSTER THEME
OH ***********, PYRA DOING RANDOM **** WITH A FIREBALL.

OK, the Splatoon 2 localizers are DEFINITELY reading forum posts, LOL.

Time to check out the shiny new boat.

ok.. Pearl...I may be picking Flight.... but who frosts a cake with Mayo, you silly stupid *****
Yeah, that gave me a little bit of a whut moment too, LOL.

Power of Flight, here I come! :4pit:

Do you hear that? That's the sound of awful jokes flying in. . .five minutes at a time.

I just beat Breath of the Wild today.
Honestly, either this or FE Echoes is probably going to be my game of the year.
Not that all the stuff coming out doesn't look good, I just don't think I'm going to get to it all by the end of this year.
Overall I found the game quite enjoyable, even if the story left more to be desired.
Now it seems I might get to playing ARMS and Splatoon 2 more often, as I've barley played either of them.

10,000th POST!!!



Never thought I would be here for this long but here I am!

Unlike the celebration posts I made for every 1,000 posts, I will be not doing this any more (unless I miraculously reach 100,000 posts).

Woo-hoo!

The Death Note movie also, to me atleast, ended in a way that hinted towards a sequel but it'll probably end up like Dragonball Evolution where everyone forgets it existed(until now).

Time to vote for Team Flight.

Sorry Marina...
Nah man, don't look at it that way. Marina loves Pearl, she wouldn't want you to pick favorites just because of the star behind it anyway. Just do you, guilt free.

Also happy 10,000th post!

Apparently, one of the FE games the next Fire Emblem Cipher will focus on is Sacred Stones. Just like how that game finally gets some love in Heroes, looks it's also getting that long-awaited respect in the trading card game. Among the new arts revealed so far is one featuring Joshua and Myrrh.



Damn, Joshua is lookin' good like always!

I'll tag @Shishœ for this. I know you're a big fan of Joshua, so I'm sure you'll want to save that image of that special Myrmidon (perhaps you might even use it for a future avatar/signature?).

Thankfully with all these gameplay footage of Mario + Rabbids and people getting it early, I haven't seen any spoilers.

Though a lot can happen between now and four days ...

Yep, but let's not lose our heads though.

Also I would like to share this video:
As some people may know Switch had a lot of people concerning about the console's success or even straight up being pessimistic on the console saying that it will be the Wii U 2.0, and obviously some do give out tons of legit reasons on why they think that way and they are actually good, but of course you just have those tech hores just think that simply the power is the killer. I'm also not just saying Youtubers but also here on Smashboards despite most of us are okay or positive with Switch, there were some pointing the potential flaws with the Switch. Media press also pointed out many things too, and of course some just making those just for clicks or they just hate Nintendo for somewhat reason...
As time goes on, now we are in the time where Switch is selling like hot cakes and right now besides that we can just look at those old Switch negative stuff and have some chuckle I think it is more worthy to watch video like this and think why some people were so negative with Switch. Or making a "Where are the Switch haters" video/discussion. Sure most of you guys will say it is because that Nintendo's Wii U was a fail so it made people panic when they saw Switch that is "what a Wii U should have been". I also think that personal opinion will get mix in with the reasons.
Of course those who were bashing the Switch shouldn't feel ashamed at all, perhaps it can give them a lesson that you should never be solid pessimistic when it comes to a console's release. Yes, that also goes with the upcoming Xbox One X and Atari box...

Even more interesting though, with Switch being popular, Smashboards Nintendo Switch thread is on the other hand, dead silent/inactive...

I may not be a good enough artist to properly milk #TeamFlight, but holy chicken someone in my square already got that sentimental as all heck quote from the Wish Seed chapter up.

#SquidIcarus lives! Kinda.

Let's face it the biggest detriment to the Switch is supply to meet demand. Nintendo seriously can't get their **** together with that.

Which is hilarious to think about when a couple years ago they overstocked Wiis.
TBH if you put the two together you can kinda see how they got into this mess in the first place.

Especially after people complained about the concept of the Switch nonstop from the moment it leaked and reached a fever pitch at the January event. Not exactly encouragement for a hyper-conservative company to start boosting their supply lines.
