I mean, I thought Bowser had the observatory captive.

And Rosalina stayed there because of Lumas, helping Mario through the cosmic spirits.

I mean, Rosalina is obviously powerful enough to make them and do other things which makes me wonder why she didn't help in the first place. Maybe she couldn't.

Except none of that is ever remotely explained or implied.

Also, if Rosalina was held captive, don't you think she would have thanked Mario for saving her if that was the case? It would be out of character for her not to. Yet she never does and never even mentions needing help to begin with.

The reason Rosalina doesn't just take care of everything herself (or even just like, whoop Bowser before he even absorbs the Stars) in Galaxy 1 or even Galaxy 2, is the same as why Mega Man doesn't just teleport to the Robot Masters and Wily - we wouldn't have a game if they did.

Also in Rosalina's case, her implementation as she is now was actually rushed in late into Galaxy's devleopment. She was originally just a one level character like the Honey Queen. Which probably is why she causes all of these plotholes.

Granted they could have easily solved this by making her less powerful to begin with. But they literally made her god, arguably more.

What actually happened was...
Bowser: Muahaha! I have kidnapped you!
Rosalina: Yeah yeah, now **** off, I'm baby-sitting the Lumas
Bowser: Don't talk down on me...Or I'll...Er...Hit you!
Rosalina: I'm high tier and I can beat your ass in stylish heels, now leave me alone
Bowser: K

Reminds me of this fanart.



Ironically, I do ship the two.

Yeah, but you'd buy almost anything if it's got Yokai Watch involved, stuff like hentai most likely being something you wouldn't buy as you're still innocent and pure like a cinnamon roll
mmmm cinnamon rolls <3
I heard Tokyo Ghoul is either the ****, or actual ****. Heard good things about Gintama, though I don't know enough other than that it's apparently a sketch show or something. Care to give me a rundown?
Gintama is really freaking funny and I love it XD

So I've considered sometime in December that to celebrate both the holidays and the new Star Wars film, I'll finally man up and watch the Star Wars Holiday Special.


help me...
Just watch the prequels, your brain and sanity will thank you later

At least it's more bearable than Jar Jar.
Believe me, Jar Jar isn't as nearly as bad as the Holiday special, you think Jar Jar was bad, wait until you want to kill all wookies because of the Holiday special.

Saw this on Gamefaqs while looking at stuff for Hyrule Warriors.

Nice to see Fire Emblem and Final Fantasy on there, as well as Type Moon. And I would so pay for a Gintama one.
Sweet Precure is on there, I'd love to see a Mosou warriors with Precure, such an awesome show. Does a great job of mixing DBZ style of fighting with Magical Girls in my opinion.

I'd also love to see a Precure fighting game, but I don't think that'll ever happen.

Also the yuri subtext is totally not why I watch the show at all, nope, no siree, totally not the reason I watch it

And now I wait for you all to wonder what the hell is Precure.

Precure actually shows up on my tumblr dash a lot for some reason.

Also when I go into the Rosalina tag I do on occasion see stuff of Mario/Nintendo girls dressing up as those characters or something.

Pretty clear from my statement that I've seen the Holiday special. Jar Jar makes the Wookies look like Leonardo Di Caprio in Django Unchained.

Mac and Wii Fit are just straight fitting. (No pun intended)

They are both health nuts, the only athletes in Smash Bros, fits 100% with their own body and nothing else and are the probably the only newcomers who are and will represent their series for the foreseeable future

MMM I SMELL A SHIP FOR @Zoroarking

I actually know it because a KR subgroup does Precure too iirc
Oh, you watch any of the seasons?

Well Precure does reference other franchises at times, so it showing up on tumblr isn't to surprising, especially since some of the Cures are even geeks.

Small note Cures are the names of the girls who transform.

Pretty clear from my statement that I've seen the Holiday special. Jar Jar makes the Wookies look like Leonardo Di Caprio in Django Unchained.
Yeah, nope sorry, when compared to the Holiday special experiencing Jar Jar is like watching Citizen Kane.

Nope, Maho Shoujo isn't my thing, especially with an overly cute style like Madoka making me stop watching. Maybe I could get into it if you recommend me a good one for people starting the franchise
Well I can recommend the original series Futari Wa Precure, it does have some pretty cool DBZ style fight scenes, I'd recommend Smile Precure, cause I found it legitimately funny, but its still mered in Magical Girl tropes so you probably wouldn't like it that much.

One thing I got to know though, do you know the fanbase joke of Nagisa/Cure Black being a Kamen Rider?

The fanbase has a running joke that Nagisa/Cure Black is actually secretly a Kamen Rider, since her voice actress appeared in one of Kamen Rider series, I believe it was when she was child, but don't quote me on that.

Has anyone heard of the toptens site. I just found this on Gamefaqs.

http://www.thetoptens.com/annoying-smash-brothers-for-wii-u-3ds-characters/
I've seen it. It's always silly.

Rosalina would have been a good character WITHOUT Luna. With Luna she is easily the best and most overpowered character in SSB4.


my fav duo best smash bros character 10/10

She is super stupid and ugly and a useless character overall. She Sucks.
spotted the jealous peach/daisy elitist

Sonic is the only representation of the Sonic Series. He is here because Sega payed Nintendo money and all of Sonic's dumb fangirls begged and pleaded. He is annoying, and his Spin Dash-Up B-Up Air combo is annoying and spammed. "YOU'RE TOO SLOW".
i mean he doesn't even say it in this game......

I'm getting anxious.

The new developer update is cool though. Backers will be getting some free games.

On the final day of its kickstarter, Skullgirls doubled the amount it had the day before.

Trust me. We're at least hitting that minimum.

I don't think that they need to be elitist to blindy hate her for no reason.
True, but I would like to think it's the elitists of something or another who do that, mostly.

Trust me. We're at least hitting that minimum.
A last day surge is always possible. In fact, that's how we got the 20 day extension for Indivisible.

It's still awfully worrying though. Having to rely on a surge of funding is not a healthy way to have your game funded, and I'm sure the developers are really anxious now. I know I would be if it was my game.

Samurai and aliens. Also the "Neo Armstrong Cyclone Jet Armstrong Cannon."

That being said, it's a mix between original stuff and parodying stuff. Like there was an episode parodying the Wii and another parodying Monster Hunter, etc. But there are also original episodes mixed in alongside as well. Also, the humor is also mixed as well. Sometimes you'll get alot of dirty humor, sometimes you'll have little to none. Also, lots of over-the-top action when it calls for that type of action, but at the same time you'll actually get a bit of action that is not so over the top and pretty serious.
Basically what I'm trying to say is that it's very much a Trick-or-Treat bag of goodies. You may like something from it, you may not like something from it, but it's pretty equal at giving a mix of everything without having too much of one thing. In my opinion though, alongside having some of the most funniest moments, it also has some of the most saddest and heartwarming moments I've ever seen in anime.
That being said, it can be a bit heavy on the twist endings. But it tends to do a good job on when they should be shown and when they shouldn't. Like you would rarely see them being shown after an actual emotional moment and what-not.

I don't get how anyone, no matter how scrubby or casual, can STILL think Little Mac is in anyway OP.
Remember last year when local tournaments banned Lil' Mac?

Yeah, he ain't broke and you're crazy if you still think so.

I wouldn't worry, I heard that 90% of all crowdfund campaigns that pass 60% get funded. And it's at 79 currently.

Wait, I'm the hot bun?



No, you're the cinnamon roll...
I... think...
Zane liked the cinnamon roll, something I called Blue for not wanting hentai, Zane and Blue for your wedlocke

If anything, the scrubs would expect Little Mac to be the scrubbiest character because of offledge-footstool or something
My friends are considering funding Indivisible if they get paid before the 5th
