Social Swamp's Social Thread 3 - And now, the end is near, and so I face the final curtain...

[epicmartin7]

Welp. My old avatar's back after a long absence. It's still technically winter too where I live, so the Santa hats are still somewhat festive!

*breaks Speedwagon's ribs by bearhug*

It's good to see you again! We've been getting hyped about Pokken's new character announcement, celebrated new years, and I casually admitted I had a **** a few days ago

You know? I wasn't really a fan of power rangers until Samurai. It felt like that show had more of a serious backstory behind it imo. Although, some others weren't too bad. Also, thanks for the new sig!

Watch Fourze so you get the context to why he's doing that. I recommend it, it's not trash despite having an anime setting. Need a link?

Swamp posted something about themaryeww and we had a debate about progressiveness in cinema

Sounds good! I'll put it on my back catalog and most likely watch it later.

WAIT THAT MEANS I DIDN'T NOTICE MARTIN MEANT POWER RANGERS INSTEAD OF KAMEN RIDER!

A regular mook early on in Fourze is pure nightmare fuel btw

 

[Kenith]

So, anyone know what type of Figure/Statue this unfinished Link is? Is it a PVC figure, like the Cordelia one next to it, or.. what? D: I keep a good track on Nintendo statues nowdays, but I have yet to see what this figure really is.

Unfinished? I swear I've seen that very figure in my local GameStop...

W, Fourze and Drive are my person favourites. Anything starting from W is good though Ghost is too early. Ryuki, 555, Blade, Kabuto and Den-O are also good

 

[epicmartin7]

No. It's Mashpotato Samurai.

Alright. I'll take a look at them later. Thank you!

Samurai is the one that got you hooked?

Really?

RPM is the best season

Samurai is a watered down version of the Japanese sentei

 

[Burruni]

We talking Samurai?

Gilgamesh.

That is all.

I'm just merely a casual fan of Power Rangers. Even though I've watched Power Rangers before, that was when I was in a very young state (about 2 or 3 years of age). So I didn't really remember them.

In essence, Samurai was the first one that got me hooked. Like I said though, I'll try the ones Cutie Gwen recommended to me.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Seriously though, RPM is really good

I went into it HATING the idea of what I read

The megazord looks HORRIBLE.

But, they seriously gave that season their all.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Gilgamesh.

That is all.

Gaim is a better samurai lol

No. It's Mashpotato Samurai.

Alright. I'll take a look at them later. Thank you!

My personal favourites are W, which has a great balance between action, comedy and exposition, Fourze, which was written by Gurren Lagann's main writer, and Drive, which is real tearjerky later on, but starts a bit weak

IT'S KAMEN RIDER NOT POWER RANGERS

KR IS EDGY, DARK AND COOL MOST OF THE TIME DESPITE THE NARM! WE ALSO HAVE A KICKASS SOUNDTRACK AND COOL MOVIES MORE OFTEN THAN NOT
Though Decade was garbage so it isn't perfect I guess...

 

[Khoru]

gilgamesh doesn't exactly set a high bar

Alright, I'll probably have time to watch it next week. Thanks for the recommendation =)

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

I haven't seen Drive, but Fourze is pretty good.

And W is pretty awesome. Kamen Rider skull is one of my favorites


I also liked Ryuki, and I have a soft spot for Agito since it was my first Kamen rider I watched.

THIS IS A N00B YOU ARE TALKING TOO. Although, I'm saying this in a funny sarcastic tone. Not an angry one.

 

[Deleted member]

Samurais?
We all know who the best Samurai is

Spoiler

KR IS EDGY, DARK AND COOL

WAIT, DID YOU MAKE ME WATCH A SHADOW THE HEDGEHOG ANIME??????

 

[JamesDNaux]

I can't find any options to change the controls and jumping with the shoulder button was a terrible design choice.

Then again, I can barely navigate the menus at all, there's so much stuff on screen, I don't know what I'm doing.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

I'm sorry.

Orange samurai who becomes a strawberry ninja, pineapple knight and watermelon Gundam written by Madoka Magika's writer is better

Samurais?

XD Fourze gets guns, but is pretty lighthearted most of the time. And isn't garbage inb4 it's trash instead

 

[Burruni]

Hey.
Have you ever wondered what the old Final Fantasy games looked like from the eyes of the enemies?

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Interestingly, when I was really into Kamen Rider I had a co-worker that watched that too, and the Japanese super sentei

I don't anymore.

He always tried to get me to watch akiba ranger, which I watched a bit of and liked. But didn't have a link to more than a few episodes

 

[Deleted member]

I wonder how it would look like in FFIV since it's my favorite Star Wars game

 

[Kenith]

Never mind, @MasterofMonster.
Turns out I was thinking of THIS figure:

(I'm on mobile so no clue how big this image is)

I saw it and it was actually on the cheap side despite its quality and size.
I think about $30?

They also had the lackluster First 4 Link who was double that price. LOL. He was next to the Ganondorf which was more pricey.

There was also World of Nintendo's giant Link action figure. Kinda wanted that.

There's a lot of good Zelda merch at my GameStop. They even have plush dolls of Toon Link and Zelda and I think even Tingle?

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

I always thought Butz was the luckiest of FF characters

Getting to travel alone with 3 beautiful woman

 

[Burruni]

Krile's 14.

First killing off someone to sleep with his wife.

Now going after the grand-daughter of a fallen comrade who's arguably even pubescant.

Do we need to have a conversation?

(Faris is still the best girl of the series)

Edit:

Well...

Well they call him Butz for a reason.

Um, are you talking about something different there rather than FFV?

There's no button change option.

 

[KenboCalrissian]

I still find it funny that Ryu was banned from one of the biggest fighting game tournaments ever XD

What a time we live in

Wait... what?

 

[ChikoLad]

Wait... what?

I think he's referring to the Smash Wii U tournament at EVO last year.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Wait... what?

Ryu was banned when he got released due to being too new as nobody had time to master him

 

[Burruni]

Um, are you talking about something different there rather than FFV?

Yesterday, we were discussing Fates.
I said that I believed that the Queen of Hoshido wasn't romancable.
Namely because.... she's married.
He suggested that one would only need to have her husband accidentally die in combat.
At which point I made a Hamlet reference that few caught.

 

[wedl!!]

and I casually admitted I had a **** a few days ago

Join the club sister.

Wait... what?

Ryu was banned at EVO 2015 for Smash 4 for logistical reasons+inexperience.

 

[KenboCalrissian]

Oh, I thought you meant like, yesterday. Like some game-breaking bug was recently discovered.

 

[BluePikmin11]

Etika is starting his Undertale stream! YAY!

Oh okay. Just when you had it in the same post as FFV, it had me confused and uneasy, since I know nothing like that happens in FFV.
