Oh god, Hope's Peak Fight Night. This is not going to go well. Ibuki has cemented herself as my favourite character now. Weird parallels to Sakura duelling Monobear in the first game, here. Owari might not die outright.

That was my favorite post in a long time. Such a lovely song. Ibuki really put a lot of effort into those vocal tracks!

"I Had Fun Giving Birth But Don't Know Who the Father Is" is a song that needs to actually exist. Bless you, Ibuki. You are now the favorite child. I have really not been enjoying Mikan up until this point, but for some reason I was really touched by the depth of feeling she showed over Saionji's "reconciliation" with Kuzuryuu. I think it's partly that so much of her characterization has seemed wrapped up in her own shame and anxiety that it's very rare to me that she actually seems to show real feelings about other people that have nothing to do with her.

She's been pushing herself up the ranks recently, but man, Ibuki might just be my favourite character now. That was incredible. We do get to hear that second song right?

All this stuff going on, and how long it's been since the second trial, I can't help but think we'll be stumbling across a body soon.

Since Ibuki's name is a pastiche of the band members from K-On, I'm guessing that was their teacher's influence showing up.

...So, I feel like Ibuki's tripping death flags left and right here. But we'll see what happens. I really doubt things are going to be as simple as "Owari challenges Monobear, gets gunned the gently caress down," either.

Sakura directly challenge Monobear and didn't get gunned down. I guess challenges to personal combat with the robot (as opposed to with the actual controller of the moment) is considered okay, as long as it's a martial art's duel instead of negligent disrespect. Or maybe Junko just wanted to kill her twin for any little excuse, so she could feel the despair of grief and get off on it.

Everyone except Owari is presently accounted for, right? I was honestly expecting a murder to occur during that song.

Ibuki is my new favourite character after this by far. Too bad she's got to be toast after all this character development.

Death Metal Ibuki is fantastic. She's even better than I had thought.

I don't even like death metal, and that song was amazing.

Huh. Souda was kind of giving me metalhead vibes before. Guess I read him wrong vv This does kind of explain Ibuki's stiches-tattoo thing, though!

I don't know why I wasn't expecting something like that. I should know better by now. Never change, Ibuki

Ibuki's music is so good it makes people hyperrealistic. Why I almost thought we were reading a creepypasta of a haunted version of DR2.

I'm fairly sure Souda's reaction to the song would have scared me more had it not been similar to my reaction. I suppose art is not always representative of the artist.

BlazeEmblem posted:I have to admit, I didn't think "creative differences" implied "Death Metal". Lyrics + Localization were great, but uh, death metal isn't for me. Great update. Looks like next time we'll see how monobear tries to drive a wedge into the group, probably. I mean, this cast at least seems pretty tight right now, But uh....If Owari's going to actually challenge monobear...she might die. Like Mukuro/Junko, except Owari's probably not the Master Mind this time. Joenen fucked around with this message at 00:00 on Nov 30, 2013 |

That song was closer to thrash in actual composition than it was death metal. The lyrics were pretty death metal though. I really hope Ibuki lives, but at the same time if she is destined to die I hope she dies as a murderer and not a victim, because after that performance her execution scene would have to be awesome as gently caress.

orenronen posted:Nice to have met you! It's like she's actively spitting in the face of translators. I know I hated it when Latin deliberately used the wrong tense. Or... wait, I might be reading it wrong. Using the perfect tense to describe an event that's already taken place is the right tense. I guess it's just Ibuki being weird and using the "first meeting" greeting for someone she already knows?

I am really glad I took Oren's advice and sat through the whole song before continuing on. If Ibuki dies, I hope we get to raid her room for demo tapes.

curiousTerminal posted:It's like she's actively spitting in the face of translators. I know I hated it when Latin deliberately used the wrong tense. Yes, she's basically saying it was a pleasure to meet him when she met him several days ago (or however much time has passed in game). It's perhaps a bit odd from an etiquette perspective, but I don't think it breaks any grammar rules.

Am I the only one that got a bit of an Arch Enemy vibe from that song? And that second title sounds like it came straight from Maury Povich.
