I envy you... to a point

Now I am curious. Why?

On a completely different subject, I would really like to see a new Blue Exorcist anime. Especially if they brought back Hiroyuki Sawano as the music composer. Though I doubt they will give this manga the FMA treatment...

 

[Coricus]

Yaaaay, back on the computer again.

I should something.

Yeah, it's hard to help. I'm perpetually bored and naturally needy.

Well, let's put something more worthwhile in this post too, shall we?

 

[FalKoopa]

I'm not even from an English-speaking country.

Neither am I... for the most part.

 

[Deleted member]

Where on Earth does that title come from?

Probably from some mod's mind.

 

[FalKoopa]

OOOH I didnt know her name was Nagisa. There are to many Nagisas in anime.
Nagisa in Free
Nagisa in Assassination Classroom
Nagisa in Madoka
Nagisa in Eva

Nagisa in Clannad.

It's a conspiracy, I'm telling you.

I'm late but I heard Leonard Nimoy passed away. I'll never forget his memorable words:

But seriously, the world of nerdom would be absolutely nothing without him. Rest in peace buddy.

'Recognised' ones are those which have atleast a million speakers. The actual list is too long (~400).

At least, he will be in a better place. It's sad when things like this happen.

That catchphrase won't be forgotten.

I'm not sure if to be amazed because it combines Star Trek and Lord of the Rings or to be afraid.

Blame Wikipedia. I just copy-pasted what was there.

Yeah, it's a lot.

Still an English speaking country.

Here, we only speak Portuguese. Well, for the most part. There's a minority language spoken in a city and some small villages in the northeast of the country, close to the border with Spain. Doesn't really have a big influence, though, but given the diminishing population in that region, there have been efforts to preserve it.

Overall, many people here know foreign languages. Usually English, French and/or Spanish. Out of those, the one I understand the least is French (only had three years of classes and didn't have the best teachers). Spanish is similar to Portuguese and I pretty much learned it on my own. I'm not quite fluent, but I can understand it well. I have been to Spain a lot of times, which helps.

I must have some weird accent when speaking English. lol Though it might be subtle, since I am quite used to English.

 

[MSmariosonic]

About 90% of the Dutch population is able to have a proper conversation in English.
That other 10% consists of mostly foreigners from eastern countries where English is rarely spoken.
The other languages Dutch people are known to speak are German and French.
And we can basically have a proper talk with a Flemish speaking person due to the similarities in language.

My other country of origin is.. Serbia.. which I don't like at all.
Where I think only 5-10% can have a proper conversation in English.
I know alot of Serbs though whose knowledge of the English language only consists of swearing and cursing.

And since I already posted that first thing yesterday, this.



Capcom is really loose with their permission slips.

I hate having my home country bashed on but other people of different countries so much

And If people say Murican, they are instantly dead to me

I must be uncultured for not knowing another language

 

[CyberHyperPhoenix]

Most Fijian speaking people are able to have an English conversation, Although I really can't say an overall percentage, but if I had to it would be about 70% - 80%

Ugh. When the Japanese voice actor for Master Xehanort passed away a few months ago, I started worrying about Nimoy (the English voice). He was pretty old. I didn't care for Star Trek, but I do know he's a very famous voice actor in that part.

*salute*

I'm gazing at my trophy collection and noticed some enemies being trophies but absent in Smash Run, which makes me think: could those enemies have also been considered for the mode? What if they released DLC to include more enemies?

Doing a listing per series, this is what I got:
Super Smash Bros. (SSE): Gamyga, Bytans
Seem to reuse models from Brawl. The trophies are also in the same poses as Brawl, as far as I can remember.

Mario: Piranha Plant, Cheep Cheep, Blooper, Buzzy Beetle, Pokey, Paragoomba, Dry Bones, Thwomp, Boo, Wiggler, King Bob-Omb, King Boo, Ghosts (Luigi's Mansion 2)
Two of those really wouldn't have worked as there's no water and the swimming mechanic is absent in this version as well.

DK: Scurvy Crew, Mugly, Krazy Kalimba
DKCR enemies, pretty much.

Zelda: Like Like, Skulltula
Like Likes were enemies in Melee's Adventure Mode...

Kirby: Bomber, Wheelie, Bugzzy
Bugzzy could be one of those stronger enemies.

Pokémon: Hitmonlee, Porygon-Z, Audino, Sylveon
Those have neither appeared in previous Smash games nor they appear as Poké Balls... Audino could have been interesting if he healed other enemies.

Kid Icarus: Mik, Specknose, Centurions
Those are enemies from since the first game. Centurions appeared late in KIU as enemies as well.

I'm likely looking too deeply at this.

Still, Smash Run finally does something the Smash Bros. series has always poorly done: the enemies cast finally has the crossover feel as the rest of the game. Brawl was especially guilty of this with only having Mario enemies besides original creations.

Oh, goodness. I finally get on the computer, and this thread slows to delicious but unhealthy molasses.

Let's liven it up with the best thing a poster could ever ask for:

 

[MSmariosonic]

Trust me, coming from someone who's been in America all my life, I can understand where some can get that notion.

Ironically, I always called Serbia, the US of the Balkan.
It's probably the most American country in Europe.. in terms of people atleast.
A big part of the population is overweight. There's a big percentage of gun ownership per household.
A study I once read showed that America and Serbia are among one of the laziest countries.
There are also quite alot ghettos. And gays nor atheists aren't very welcome.
I could go on ranting about "my"country but I'd be busy 'till tommorrow.

Also a horrible excellent cartoon from the late '80s-early '90s.

Just wait until you see what they did to Mother Brain and Kraid.
And DK.
And Tetris.
Split second of '80s CGI in the opening credits is a plus, too.

One, we're not fat. We're fluffy. There's a big difference between the two.

I'm not saying ALL Americans are fat. I'm saying there's a huge percentage of overweight compared to other countries.

He's not truly dead he just did what Master Xehanort did and split his heart to give to all of us, but unlike Xehanort he did it so we could never forget him.
