Labrys's Brooklyn accent is too much for me. How was that the voice they chose for her? It's too great.

She had a Kansai accent in Japanese, and all the dopest translators make that equivocation

Each dialog choice in Yu's story counts towards the total progress. He doesn't have any alternate paths though it's pure dialog changes.

I'm down for any/all 360 goon tournies, provided I am not stuck at work while they go on.


Also chalk me up as another who loves Labrys's voice, its silly but awesome.

And on that labrys note: For those of you who enter training mode with her, don't just default to having her Axe at charge 5 just cause you want to see higher damage, each level of axe adds more hitstun* to each hit, so a combo you might do at red charge might be impossible to do at green charge.


*just wanna say, when I figured out that the bar below the damage indicator in a combo was hitstun I was like :wth:

Various sources on the interwebs are claiming it's Cindy Robinson. And now that I think about it... yeah, I can here a little Makoto Nanaya in there.

When I first heard Labrys' voice in the trailer (the "I'll protect the public decency of Inaba!" line, which I've only heard her say in arcade mode) I was very quickly able to place her as Amy Rose.

I've watched too many Sonic LPs in my time, I think.

This game is such a refresher after blazblue, everything has so much personality, in parcicular I really like the before/after match quotes. Mitsuru's spaceballs limo, "I won! Latuh!" and "Soooooooo laaaaaame~" are probably the best.

Watching kanji and akihiko have a shadow killing contest is pretty good, too.

At this point Mitsuru is pretty much Tony Stark meets Bruce Wayne meets James Bond. Even if she wasn't S-Tier she would be The Best Character.

Everyone pointing out how silly/unstealthy her outfit is in Story Mode is just the icing on the cake.

Yeah you're right, I double checked and Yukiko actually is just guarding the projectiles, not invincible to them. So he can still OMC it.

Does anyone else sing along with the junes theme in Chie's one-button combo? Seriously, while I loved her original VA, the new one's just as awesome. She just makes her one of the most fun characters in the game.

Her best line for me so far is during Aigis's story when Chie meets Akihiko for the first time. She fangirls the gently caress out seeing a "real" hero.

New title: "Chic Instant Kill Bebe"

Question: Is it bad sportsmanship to skip the pre-fight cutscenes when there's still stuttering lag? I always let it catch up before I press a button and anyone who does the opposite deserves to be instant killed.

It happens a lot to me and its seriously annoying. I have to spend the first few seconds of each fight just blocking and waiting for things on my end to catch up. I really wish people wouldn't skip past it so immediately. It only lasts like, 10 seconds.

Yeah, after a match or two where we jumped right in, I always let it catch up before starting if I can. Playing mainly with friends helps, though.

If it's absolutely max range you MIGHT be able to do QCF+B~QCB+B. Maybe. Or super. Otherwise you're stuck with 2C. I'll double check on the first one.

At max range you do 236a+b, or if you hit them out of the air, 236c+d. As far as I can tell following up a 5c FC at max range requires you to burn meter no matter what. I could give you a nice max range FC 5c combo, but I just shut the xbox off and am about to go to sleep.

Man I change titles practically matchly. I've got Japan's Best Beard right now but I only played a match or two with that one. There is just so much potential for awesome titles. It's funny stringing together the super long ones and making it so long it spreads onto the persona cards but ultimately I prefer the short ones that show up on the title card with out being cut off.

Anything with the words lowfat milk, janitorial, or insurance are usually pretty great. You can't go wrong with something like Self-proclaimed Insurance Man. Oh I hope salesman is in there somewhere...

Teddie's right now unstoppable, it seems, in ranked matches. 99% of all the people I play against don't know how to handle his weird poo poo, and the only ones who put up an actually decent fight are the Japanese players who've had more time to get used to his antics.

Also, I totally sent a friend invite to the personagoons meta-tag. If anyone ever wants a match on the 360, I'm pretty much always game. Just toss a message to SMS SKULL 2. Expect a lot of seriously terrible bear puns.

Yeah, you have to beat it three times, and at least one of them has to be with a P3 character. I beat it with Chie, Teddie, and then went to Naoto cause the internet told me it was just to beat it with one of the 2nd unlocks, which is all the P3 guys and then Naoto. Oh well, Mitsuru's story has been cool so far.

Bite Into A Bambino... sure title system, why not.

Also, after grinding through Story Mode a bit, I am probably never playing Aigis again if I have a say in the matter. I dunno, everything about her just feels awkward, what with trying to keep your bullet usage to the bare minimum. Outside Orgia you're just cowering and trying to get that meter filled and IN Orgia you're gambling about whether that last SB Megido Fire will finish them off or if you're SOL for the next 15 seconds with a grey meter... yeah, gonna stick with Mitsuru's poking games, thanks.

Ok, I'm awake now, so time for combos!

Max range standing fatal counter 5c 236a+b 2a 2b 236b 2a 2b 236c 236a/b - costs 25meter, 4812 damage.

Max range air fatal counter 5c 236a+b jb 2b 236b 2a 2b 236c 236a/b - costs 25meter ,4257 damage.

These are both bare bones minimum resources spent, you should really make up versions that spend more meter and/or bursts, .

If people do that a lot they get marked a a frequent ragequitter, and there name is turned red. When the matchmaking matches you up against someone with a red name, don't accept the match*. If they didn't have a red name because they're new and haven't earned it yet, take solace knowing they will have a red name soon with that behavior.


*Alternatively, accept the match and play the most lame annoying way possible trying to bait them into rage quitting yet again.
