So, You're a Player too...? Neku Sakuraba for Smash Switch! [FINAL REMIX FOR SWITCH UPCOMING!]

[Rie Sonomura]

If we get a third pass, and they decide to throw in a fourth S-E character, I have no doubt it’ll be Neku as TWEWY NEO will be recent at that point. Maybe with a Rindou alt

I don’t think we know enough about rindou to claim he’d work as an alt

If NEO uses pins for attacks and Rindou’s around the same height and proportions as Neku he should be fine

I hope for the English dub they bring back the original game’s cast like they (Funimation, who’s handling this and the Neptunia anime) did for the latter mentioned anime

Still jumping the gun atm

That's the golden scenario, but honestly, I'd be happy with a TWEWY Spirit Board event in summer. (Maybe the spirits could be Neku, Rindo, and Sho, with Neku and Rindo having backup fighters based on their partners.

Spoiler: Trailer 2

This trailer is rendered in a 2D anime/manga/comic book artstyle, most notably with characters being represented by multiple still images of various poses.
Joker wakes up, finding himself lying on the ground in Shibuya's Scramble Crossing and clad in his school uniform.
People are walking around him, but nobody can see him.
After a few moments, Joker sees a strange sight--red-and-black symbols, resembling a cross between a skull and the Smash Ball, floating in midair.
The symbols warp, transforming into bizarre, off-color, jagged versions of Smash fighters. Joker is taken aback; no one else seems to notice.
The fake fighters start to attack, and Joker is only narrowly able to dodge.
In desperation, Joker reaches to his glasses to try and unmask, but someone calls out. Joker turns to see someone running towards him, a figure in purple.
The figure leaps over Joker's head and summons fire in front of his hand, lashing it out at the fake fighters, causing them to explode into TV static and disappear.
The figure turns to Joker.
Neku Makes Some Noise!
<insert random gameplay, showing off Neku's flashy elemental and psychokinetic attacks, as well as his stage, which goes from the Scramble Crossing to a mural in Udagawa to an ominous underground bar with static effects>
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate x The World Ends With You

Neku reveal trailer concept.

I wouldn't mind it myself. If the Seven Squares theory is true and Neku/Rindo really wasn't in consideration, then I could see this happen.

Bravely Default II is the next Spirit Event massacre

we had two whole ass S-E spirit events before Sephiroth and that didn’t rule him out especially since we had two S-E characters beforehand

I’m just saying... what if they double dip... probably not but if a third pass happens I’m even more confident now cause the competition’s thinning and at this point Neku’s only competitors are Crono, Lara and 2B

 

[Rie Sonomura]

Neku’s being rated in RTC today... how’s he doing?

 

[fogbadge]

Neku’s being rated in RTC today... how’s he doing?

Most think he’s missed his shot this time

 

[TCT~Phantom]

Neku’s being rated in RTC today... how’s he doing?

Chance wise, not great since people don’t think square will get two reps in one pass. People do say though that if FP3 is announced he goes up.

Want wise really good.

New trailer for the TWEWY anime show.

 

[Rie Sonomura]

Hey so

you know that dashing through projectiles/grazing glitch

many believe it points to Reimu from Touhou cause of the grazing mechanic but I also just realized

Neku can “dash” through projectile attacks too...

 

[Flyboy]

Glitches have never actually meant anything for DLC in the entire history of Smash Ultimate glitches and I'll eat my hat if it's different this time after eight failures.

NEO: The World Ends With You set three years after The World Ends With You The Animation

NEO: The World Ends With You is a sequel to The World Ends With You The Animation set three years later, director Tatsuya Kando said during a brief appearance on the “It’s a Wonderful S…

www.gematsu.com

So we'll finally get more information on Neo: The World Ends With You on April 9th (which is also when the anime premieres I believe)

Also Neo takes place three years after the anime, not the game

New trailer and release date

There was a problem fetching the tweet

 

[fogbadge]

its looking awesome but man i hope we can swap out math brain at some point, that guys the worst

 

[Marvel-Otaku-Man]

So ah, Neku looks a bit different.

 

[SNEKeater]

I disagree so much lol

The trailer is really good. I'll probably buy It on PS4

you don’t think the game looks good?

Sorry I didn't specify, I was talking about your comment about Minamimoto haha

I think the game looks fine

Yeah, I'm one of those people

It's a refined taste, I guess

 

[Nazyrus]

Yeah Neku is looking seriously different here, I almost wonder how his face even looks now…

I can't believe I never knew this earlier.

EDIT: Never mind.

Wait! This is incorrect, this is actually Takeshi Arakawa, one of the three project leads. Nomura does not have a sprite in the game pic.twitter.com/YcAex01zEM

[Marvel-Otaku-Man]

Yo, I hope Neku is hiding an even BIGGER pair of headphones under his hood.

And you guys know in Luigi's Mansion how Luigi has a dedicated "call Mario" button? Well, Sho Mina needs a "So Zetta Slow!" button. It'd be sick.

 

[KirbyWorshipper2465]

Assuming that NEO won't be a Balan-level bomb, it should at the very least get a spirit event to punctuate its release. Out of every other company, Square-Enix has consistently gotten those as soon as possible.

Between this and the Nier Automata DLC CEO boss fights, they sure like inserting company representatives in their games nowadays.

Also Neo takes place three years after the anime, not the game

Classic Nomura, I bet the anime will have vital information that comes into play for NEO.

I think I read it takes places after the anime is cause the three years wouldn't make sense using the more advanced phones or something like that...I need to read that again...but I wouldn't be surprised if it ties more into NEO with more information

Oh and the first episode is available on Funimation now, so far im really enjoying it...though the Opening was changed due to the drummer from ALI getting arrested due to some "scandal" or something like that

 

[SNEKeater]

I always assumed the anime would have a few new things that will tie with NEO, so that's why they're saying the game is a sequel to the anime.

 

[Chaosmaster8753]

Would be something if a Spirit event with the cast from the first game happens somehow.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

The scandal isn't mentioned but considering Japan's culture it might be drugs related.

Anyway I saw the new trailer and I really like how the game seems to be mostly voiced, TWEWY was groundbreaking for the voice acting on the DS right?

Also, goddamn they really hyping up Neku and the whole crew battles thing sounds really interesting to me, can't ****ing wait for July.

Seeing as Bravely Default 1 got glossed over entirely, the best chance would be if enough returning characters get featured in NEO.

 

[fogbadge]

hang on when is the anime out and how many episodes? cause wont it still be on going by the end of july? surely this just means the anime will follow the same plot as the first game and neo follows on from there rather than be part of specific canon?

The first episode aired yesterday, and I'm not sure if they said how many episodes (unless that was something I missed)

 

[KirbyWorshipper2465]

If Anidb is any indication, it's set to air for 12 episodes.

The Neku figure looks quite cool, I guess it will have a similar size compared to amiibos but still, that's a good price. The Shiki one also looks good.

I might grab the Neku one tbh
