Kimahri is actually pretty cool cause he doesn't give two shits about this religious nonsense he just wants to protect his adopted daught and is the first dude to follow Tidus in and with no hesitation breaks church rules and poo poo to help him. Plus he just loving stabs seymour while he's talking because gently caress wasting time.

Quina is rad as heck and Strago is pretty cool as well. They're kind of the only blue mage characters and that 3/4 who are cool and good.

kimahri gets better but still he sucks

quina is dumb and for some reason I always take gau as 6's blue mage and also gently caress gau. Strago is fine tho (although me forgetting about him says something) and Quistis sucks like everyone else in 8 but she's a hot teacher so we give her a pass. I don't even know if there's another blue mage I'm forgetting.

Tbf a lot of VI's later everything kind of just fall apart because most of it is optional so there's almost no character interaction once you get the Falcon.

Have you watched any new anime/read new manga recently? (Like Tokyo Ghoul or Madoka or Monogatari) If you have, could you please share your experiences with us?

He also earlier missed that Titus told Yuna his dad was Jecht, and that was why she started talking about her dad's guardian Jecht, and complained that Titus didn't mention that his dad's name was Jecht, so I think we're in for like 30 hours of this happening.

"Everywhere it's poo poo because Sin can and will wreck everything at random, but this city has a stadium, so the protectors of humanity actually do their job for it."

I kinda immediately thought of how cool it'd be if instead of Bleetzball it was wrestling and that basically you have to move to the WWE city from Scooby Doo Wrestlemania Mystery if you want any chance of not dying horribly during a random Sin attack. You wake up one morning and see Undertaker tombstone a Sin tentacle so it runs away.

noirstronaut posted:

A store that's owned by the same owner of the store I work in has like a million copies of Rodea. It was projected to sell to collector's because it seemed destined to fail and then never be printed again but initial copies never sold.

Who knows, maybe in a few months you'll be able to easily find the Wii version by itself on gamestop.

I don't think it's actually hard to find. Every copy is a first-print copy; there are plenty still on shelves and I'd be shocked if they even do a second run.

Dude. DUDE. I was right there, in that exact position, thinking to myself "thank god Naruto is over and I don't need to care anymore. ...oh the movie is there and it's all about Naruto and Hinata getting together..." and the second half of the second act was the most nothing boring twenty minutes of my life, but man, Boruto is legit.

The best comparison between those two I can give is that for The Last Kishimoto told the team to include a scarf subplot thing and did designs around the scarf because that's what his wife did when they were dating and that's boring and means nothing, for Boruto you can feel how some of Boruto's lines to Naruto were totally poo poo his son had actually told him and it's awesome, it's a story based on something legit and interesting, it's not high art but it's an actually well executed thing. If only watch it to see the sheer hatred Kishimoto's son has towards him and how the ending feels like the season 4 finale to Always Sunny with Kishi being Charlie trying to get his son's love via a play.

That's part of the appeal, Boruto is named loving Boruto... and it's still several times better than the last decade or so of Naruto.

I read it for a while, stopped just before stuff got super good again (Luffy's childhood friend showing up again, like i'm at that point where Luffy's disguised as an old man and beating on that tournament) and now that I know I stopped at the worst time to stop I got it ready in my bookmark, one of these days I'll hop in and binge it and have an actual legit good time. Until then I'm sorta excited for the Boruto manga because I can't escape this hell I pushed myself into.

Just the thought of Woolie sitting there going "Yo dog this nine tails poo poo is actually pretty cool" is stupid enough to keep me laughing for years, I think it might have the possibility to top aggressive desire for child murder from Ultra Despair Girls and possibly every day life.

It's a full story of Boruto learning the meaning of hard work and Naruto learning the meaning of being a lovely dad, I mean it's open ended enough that the manga can pick up from there and the aliens could keep attacking earth but it doesn't feel like "and now this was meaningless, watch the next bit for actual conclusions!!!" If Boruto follows his father's puckered assholesteps and shits the bed it doesn't make the movie bad retroactively, it's still a pretty solid self contained thing.

Was just joking around since Pat opened trying to make it look like Woolie did get back into it, my unironic recommending of Boruto buried the joke tho. :sweatdrop:
