DBZ spoiled me, i cant get into any anime anymore. If i watch one episode of something and feel that it wont be as good or better than DBZ then i dont watch it.

Watch bleach dbz with swords

 

[Battlecow]

East coast should come to GENESIS

you could have crews there.

 

[hamburglar]

$40,000 in student loans say i shouldn't go to genesis 2 despite the fact that i would love to. also, i'm not TO'ing that event so i have no say in a crew battle tourney. battlecow, are you going to either tourney?

 

[Battlecow]

No, sadly enough. I was gonna go to genesis, but some old people I know wouldn't let me and Apex is during school. I'm probably going to MSU tho. In a couple of years or w/e I'll be hitting up every national, BET YOUR ***.

Anyways, I thought you were going to Japan to escape those loans? Just go to genesis and then win $40,000 in MM's.

 

[The Star King]

>telling people they should go to a tourney when you aren't going to it

Watch bleach dbz with swords

If that's true then I'm glad I never watched dbz, because Bleach is awful

 

[hamburglar]

No, sadly enough. I was gonna go to genesis, but some old people I know wouldn't let me and Apex is during school. I'm probably going to MSU tho. In a couple of years or w/e I'll be hitting up every national, BET YOUR ***.

Anyways, I thought you were going to Japan to escape those loans? Just go to genesis and then win $40,000 in MM's.

that's sad. i'll definitely see you at a tourney in a few years then. as for Japan, well, I was just offered a decent job here in the US of A (which i'm sure you support ) but the real reason i'm not going to Japan anymore is I don't want to leave my girlfriend for a year. She is going to be a heart surgeon so i'm willing to sacrifice my ****ty career for a stateside job and more time to play smash.

DBZ spoiled me, i cant get into any anime anymore. If i watch one episode of something and feel that it wont be as good or better than DBZ then i dont watch it.

DBZ is pretty much unwatchable. So much filler. Like I really need 12 reaction shots any time anyone does anything.

Yeah, but so is Battlecow. You think he's a mature young man? Ha...!



Nintendude probably ***** the **** out of him. Just putting that out there.

jk I love you ballin

the ruleset for that tourney allowed you to ban stages ... so he banned Hyrule

Anyways, malva is 26 so I think he's older than all of us. When I was in second grade learning long division, he was already dominating the 64 scene.

I thought the great Star King was ageless and had ruled the cosmos for all time... looks like he's just a Shooting Star.

 

[The Star King]

When did I ever claim to be ageless? I am a mere 16 years old. Silly ballin

And I've EVOLVED from Shooting Star like a year ago

 

[DMoogle]

DB and DBZ manga is the ****. So freaking good.

The anime is indeed pretty much garbage though. I honestly have no idea how it's so popular, while the manga is almost something aside.

 

[The Star King]

I can't wait for my sister to move out after the summer. One less person to steal my interwebz and make me lag randomly.

That's right, fake smash is more important than family.

 

[NovaSmash]

i hope ur both joking about calling the dbz anime garbage

 

[DMoogle]

I might be spoiled because I read the manga before I watched the show, and I never was all that much into anime anyway. But seriously, there's no comparison. Manga >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> show.

 

[Ocean]

I was not expecting to be older than star king.

 

[ballin4life]

i hope ur both joking about calling the dbz anime garbage

dragon ball z kai is probably much better

 

[asianaussie]

kai has less filler but is otherwise basically the same

steins;gate is pretty good

so is angel beats

 

[ciaza]

I'll give a 3rd recommendation for Angel Beats!

Can't go wrong with TTGL.

Wolf and Spice if you want something not-action.

 

[asianaussie]

these kids don't watch anime

shouldn't give them actual good recommendations, you'll ruin their lives

 

[ciaza]

Fair enough.

New recommendations:

Boku no Pico
Lucky Star
Tenjou Tenge
The Familiar of Zero

 

[th3kuzinator]

The intro to Tenjou Tenge was my ****ing jam at age 13 lol

PARTY TIME

 

[asianaussie]

don't mix acceptable anime in with troll anime

please

it's almost as bad as getting someone addicted

 

[hamburglar]

I am a mere 16 years old.

never would have guessed.

 

[hamburglar]

edit: sorry for the double post.

 

[malva00]

here's my random post about combo making

creating a good combo takes a lot of trial and error. whether you start with an idea in mind or not, you start with a few attacks, and you slowly build from there. if a potential combo is complicated, a player usually can't visualize the whole combo and think "aha, that will work, now i'll perform the whole thing!" this means that you have to perform an unfinished combo from the beginning over and over to decide where you wanna go (possibly for many attacks until the very last hit); sometimes you run into a dead end, where the string of attacks you thought would lead you somewhere good leads you with nothing left.

the whole process can take so much time, that you might settle for an inferior combo, simply because you don't want to continue performing what you have so far (especially as the difficulty increases) to experiment with different attacks 10-15 hits into the combo.

this is why if you want to make a great combo while saving countless hours, you're better off using save states on an emulator to create the combo, and then perform the whole thing on console unless you're a fake smasher or you have no access to a 64. assign save/load state to buttons on the controller. now do a few moves, then save state. then load the save state, and you can automatically experiment with different attacks. you might want to keep a backup of earlier save states, in case you run into one of those dead ends, don't like where you're going, or want to practice a certain part of the combo before actually recording it being done all at once.

yeah that's all i wanna say for now. i might edit. you guys see that movie Rango? pretty average I regret watching it

 

[Peek~]

Doesn't matter whats suggested, everything anime mentioned itt is inferior to Princess Tutu anyway

[ballin4life]

kai has less filler but is otherwise basically the same

I heard it's like 1/3 the length, which is hilarious.

And yeah my only complaint is the filler.

 

[asianaussie]

iirc kai was cut from airing because it was getting meh ratings

 

[SSB64-Jel]

Hmm need to play more ssb online if you wanna play pm me and we can setup a time.

Anyone here going to see Transformers: Dark of the Moon?

 

[titaniachkt]

I might be spoiled because I read the manga before I watched the show, and I never was all that much into anime anyway. But seriously, there's no comparison. Manga >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> show.

Yup,watching the anime before the manga really puts me off from the series as a whole.Specially where the plot's all messed up.

I was just offered a decent job here in the US of A (which i'm sure you support ) but the real reason i'm not going to Japan anymore is I don't want to leave my girlfriend for a year. She is going to be a heart surgeon so i'm willing to sacrifice my ****ty career for a stateside job and more time to play smash.

That's quite a leap hammy,what are you doing/did for your career?

these kids don't watch anime
shouldn't give them actual good recommendations, you'll ruin their lives

Ooh,sounds like advice from personal experience,did you get hooked on one before?Also,been wondering for a while about your avatar,does it belong to

Spoiler

Nagisa

?

As for recommended anime;

• Mononoke -Both animation and storyline was wonderful,I recommend xxxHolic if you haven't seen it.Quasi-similar art theme and cryptic story development/views
• Toradora! -One of those rare multi-girl romances that actually resolves itself in the end.And I'm a sucker for Kugimiya Rie.
• Aoi Bungaku-Based on 6 separate classical Japanese pieces of literature.Pretty dark themes,if you're into that sort of thing

 

[B Link]

I never watched good anime - I only watched crap shonen anime which all shared the same attractive features (pretty sure uncyclopedia would have a good definition of this but you can figure it out yourself)

Even though I'm aware of this crapness I still "read" bleach and one piece every week lol cuz the manga isn't that bad.

Bleach - story moves insanely slow and so it makes me laugh every week about how slow it goes (e.g. a couple weeks ago it revolved around a girl wanting a doughnut in a guy's video game)

One piece - I just want to know what happens in the end, but I don't think that day is coming in my lifetime. We'll see.

Oh yeah I have been watching nichijou, it makes me laugh too and I don't know why.

 

[malva00]

Even though I'm aware of this crapness I still "read" bleach and one piece every week lol cuz the manga isn't that bad.

one piece is great. do you really think that, or are you afraid of what people will think of you?

 

[hamburglar]

i'm watching the movie "Hackers" right now. life is good.

 

[The Star King]

One Piece is OK but I think it's hugely overrated. It's better than Bleach though lol

Anyways, I had the same curse as you, B Link. I would read garbage shonen even though I could feel their awfulness. I managed to break free, though. Bleach did it for me. I simply couldn't take it anymore.

 

[Peek~]

DBZ spoiled me, i cant get into any anime anymore. If i watch one episode of something and feel that it wont be as good or better than DBZ then i dont watch it.

lol, oddly you are not the only one ive seen say this

I really wasnt joking about this. It really is the best anime Ive ever seen and I highly recommend it.

The only bad thing about it is its name

 

[malva00]

just watched episode 12 of Steins;Gate

almost fell asleep during the past few episodes, hopefully it gets better X__X or else I might have to watch TUTU

 

[ciaza]

aa's avatar is indeed a Dango from Clannad closely associated with Nagisa.

One Piece is an amazing manga, not overrated at all.

This thread needs more Negima.

 

[The Star King]

Why is One Piece so good I don't understand.

Maybe I didn't read far enough. I only read to like, Volume 25 or something. But that's a pretty big chunk, and that chunk didn't seem that special at all to me. Just another fight manga, but with "unique" art.
