Quidditch wasn't that bad in the books but the quidditch scenes went on for like fifteen minutes of aimless flying around in the movies

I liked the first one but the 2nd one was completely awful, most of the cast sucked, the bosses where stupidly over leveled and could one shot without some gimmicky bullshit on your end and there is a demon in it you cannot get at all, it exists solely to make the fight with Yamato a pain in the rear end because gently caress you that's why.

Only thing I liked about it was Jungo the cat.

Dude, if you're fighting Yamato then you already hosed up.

I think SMT IV is better than Nocturne.

Get out of here. Atmosphere, writing, graphics are all better. SMT IV is a good game and has great QoL improvements but it it's not better then Nocturne. Man I would kill for a good remake of that.

Yu is hilarious in the first. It's worth a see through. Avoid the second, it's terrible.

Here's my bad SMT opinion, SMTIV is one my favorite SMT games and ranks high with Raidou 2 and both DDS'.

These are all great games. I loved Raidou 2 especially. That said I also really liked DSO1. Oh, and are people seriously debating how anime SMT and Personal games are again?

Both P4 Anime's are bad and probably not worth watching even it Yu is great and wacky in the first one, but something *really* does need to be said about how genuinely terrible and unfunny The Golden was. Like, it takes every single joke from the game and overstates it to the point of removing any bit of charm it could have had.

Also it's like 90% scenes of Marie being retconned into story moments in really unfunny ways.

Spend the time you could be watching it playing Devil Summoner.

P4 Anime was amazing, the animators were furious over low pay and lovely hours so the result was a slow moving revolt over 24 episodes

By the end I think it was being made by the North Koreans

this, also very nicely animated in some episodes, but if you don't like marie or care about her, just watch the two adachi-centric episodes.

marie takes over several scenes she wasn't part of in the game.

things related to adachi always end up being the most interesting

Even if you aren't into the P4G Anime, there's a Christmas episode where they forget about Marie altogether to the point the opening even uses the P4 anime opening.

I got into anime again recently and there's actually good shows still being made, I just assumed everything was poo poo by now

Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Yeah it's an adaptation of a manga that started in the 80s but that doesn't make it any less good. They're currently on Part 3 of the manga, which introduces the concepts of Stands which are LITERALLY the same thing as Persona. From what I hear a huge chunk of the feel and story of Persona 4 is straight from Jojo's Part 4 too. Imagine Persona 4 where every single character is Kanji

Space Dandy: People were dissapointed because they were expecting the next Cowboy Bebop since it's the same creator, except this time what he did is give a different guest director and writer control over every episode which leads to some out there stuff like a speed racer inspired episode that ends with Dandy getting lost in time and finding out he has become a god, or an episode that has like 3 minutes of no dialogue that is basically an LSD trip, or an episode where a zombie outbreak happens but the zombies win in like 10 minutes and the rest of the episode is just exploring the ramifications of a universe where everyone is a zombie

Ping Pong: They play ping pong and there are emotions

They are kinda yellow looking? I said something similar though, I mean her shadow is this dominatrix thing and you never really see much of that from her anywhere else in the game.

Episode 8 - Persona 4 The Animation OVA 1:Not So Holy Christmas Eve Crunchyroll

It's classic Persona 4 the Animation with a brief scene with Marie. Yu invites the girls over for Christmas.

if the p4g anime is just going 'ah gently caress it here is some episodes' i'm all about that but if its legit worse because its boring and not well done i guess i'll go with the original. honestly p4g anime has a lot of catching up to do because gently caress marie she is garbage

The new demon designs in SMTIV may clash with the older assets, but they're pretty cool taken in of themselves and an SMT game designed entirely by the new guys would be a refreshing change from the usual stuff.

[edit] Aesthetically, they're a nice return to the fever-nightmare aesthetic of 80's horror anime, which I think has been lost from the older designs because of how familiar they are.

To be completely fair she is a cut-and-paste of a much better waifu mascot character with a Marie skin, so there's a reason why she's fun to play in P4U2.

Actually she plays nothing like Platinum just because she has a gimmick that involves switching things, that's a surface similarity at best and that's not considering that almost every Blazblue character sucks especially Platinum.

She has like half of Platinum's animations, even though the numbers underneath are a little different. They both also throw poo poo on screen and have similar qcf attacks. Her Bag Bounce thing is exactly the same animation as Platinum's forward moving swing attack.

They are extremely similar.

Teddie is more similar to Platinum because his gimmick actually involves throwing random poo poo out on the screen that helps his gameplan significantly and even then he's more an amalgam of Platinum and Faust than just straight up either. Every character in this game has like one animation they use from past ArcSys games, Marie is not unique in this case and just because she has a present attack that is preset and can actually be used in consistent combos does not make her Platinum. Most of their animations are not actually that similar and it is maybe like one or two which once again share surface similarities at best.

This is not mentioning they function as completely different characters in terms of how you play then.
