Some shopkeeper who only appears in side material, so he really isn't all that important to the games. The dead guy was the older brother of one of the final bosses and the cloud is more like an extension to who he is partnered with. So you really don't need to pay attention to him
ehh
i mean appearing mostly or only in side stuff doesn't mean a character can't be important
see kasen and ESPECIALLY maribel

also my #3 was genjii from touhou 2

I've been out making some crappy artwork on Miiverse.



I've also been living that life I have outside of Smashboards.

So how is everyone doing today?

Considering how he made that very thing, his words are the strongest.

Speaking of anime, I want to watch Fullmetal Alchemist some time, original or Brotherhood, which is recommendedfirst?
Brotherhood is based off the manga
2003 becomes different at a certain point because it reached the manga when it originally aired.
Some characters are more developed in either of the series(2003 does this especially for the Homunculli while Brotherhood does it better for the main characters imo)
I watched Brotherhood because muh canon but I should probably watch the 2003 version too

Holy **** for a show with the word 'Family' Family Feud isn't family friendly at all. Steve Harvey looks like he just wants to walk away most of the time
Considering that there's a LOT of stupid.

I would too.

I'd take every single one of those with open arms.
I have no problem with any of them.
And the fact that 4 of them are my most wanted even the two with technical difficulties.
Just makes everything better :drohyou:
Awesome Article and Sprite Work, By The Way :ness:
Thanks :).

Idid some rough math on the confirmed amiibos for Mario Maker and subtracted the overlapping amiibos, there'll be 60 costumes unlocked though amiibos assuming Yarn Yoshi and Metalic Marios don't have unique ones. That leaves ~40 to the game.

Also I do hope that DLC amiibos can be used for Super Mario Maker in a patch later on.

In all seriousness, I hear the only bad thing about LoS was how it deviated from the classic CastleVania stuff. Remind me, what do Metroid and CastleVania have in common? This would have been doomed from the start, thank you for cancelling a Metroid game Nintendo!

Isn't that why Miyazaki hates modern anime?
Miyazaki complains every generation about anime

In the 70s he considered Super Robot anime to be a bad thing

He's basically "oldmanyellsatcloud.jpeg"

Its funny because Miyazaki is exactly responsible for making "moe" popular to begin with all his popular movies always having young girls as the main character. He also failed to teach a new generation of animators, he fired them because he believed they were using computers too much or something lol.

Thank god other good animators who actually cared about the next generation exist. Shinchiro Watanabe (Cowboy Bebop) had animators who just graduate direct random episodes of Space Dandy so they can show off their artistic value. Some of the best episodes were done by these new animators

Except those characters were never intended to be pandering.

I am now thoroughly convinced these guys want to destroy Metroid-vania as a genre. .-.

I don't know. If we have the knowledge of what Other M is would be upset if in some alternate reality, Nintendo cancelled it?

I would

Entry #6

The Hero-King fled, but I captured his comrade, "Dark Samus". In order to capture him and his final partner, I must create the most powerful Pokèmon, but I've had nothing but failure......

John Lasseter absolutely loves the Cars franchise. And it's really popular with kids. Even though Cars 2 is a blemish on Pixar's until then perfect record, I can see why they're doing another one. Not that I'm happy about it.

Yeah but there's one diffference between him and them, they're girls while he's a dude:p

What I said can still extend to Genji technically.

The toys make money and little kids like cars.
You thought companies didn't do this anymore? This proves everybody wrong.

I actually liked the first movie and it had a quite a good song from Racal Flats :)
But a third movie is ridiculous. Especially after what the second one was based on.
And I must ask. What happened to this.

Incredible 2 is amazing though seeing how they left it on such a cliff-hanger.
And if they go more along the lines of the first movie and not the second one, Cars 3 might be a decent movie :)

John Lasseter absolutely loves the Cars franchise. And it's really popular with kids. Even though Cars 2 is a blemish on Pixar's until then perfect record, I can see why they're doing another one. Not that I'm happy about it.
It's also really good at selling merchandise :p

Didn't stop the fact that he started the craze
I can't fault someone for making anime that just happens to feature young girls. A movie features a young girl? So what of it? Fans would make anything perverted. It's the perverted fans and the ones purposely pandering to the said fans that should be faulted, not the movies. He was criticizing moe anime, the ones made to pander, not anime that happens to star girls. There is a difference.

However...

he actually did draw Nausicaä nude and chest revealing in the manga and in some promotional artwork
You raise a good point here. So you're right with that alone.



But I don't seriously consider the majority of his movies part of the problem, as long as they don't make that same sort of mistake. A lot of his movies as far I am aware, are not made for the moe audience, even if it did attracted those types. Aren't they pretty much family friendly?

EDIT: I just went and re-researched this.

He was criticizing the industry for pandering too much to the otaku with the excess of moe and lolicon anime, not the fact they exist. He also complained how so much of them are too one dimensional.

I do not see how exactly is he hypocritical when he more often than not doesn't pander.
