Where's literally anything else since the first game got a port like 5 years ago Capcom????

they're trying to protect you from realizing onimusha 2 and 3 kind of suck

there's some ok ideas in those games but imagine if they just made onimusha 1 again twice and didn't really add any more mechanical depth but just made a new bad lockpicking minigame instead

Probationary of course, to make sure we don't get another Captain Earth

How many characters are even in P.N.03? I mean, we've already had Nier Automata and from what I remember of the game, I figure it would end up in a similar vibe.

I shamefully enjoy vending machine very much (it is dumb, and it is bad, but it shows a real commitment to the bit and also avoids much of the most odious stuff that seems common in isekai as a genre)

Wearer of Compasses. Slayer of Gods. Champion of the Colosseum. Heart of the Void.
Saviour of Hallownest.
Been watching a few things

Mushoku Tensei S2: Honestly feels like a relatively large step down on season 1. The top half is really strong in its exploration of Rudy in the aftermath of Season 1 but the back half at magic school has been at best a pretty banal romcom and at worst way creepier than it had any need to be.

JJK S2: Still partway through this. I'm glad the main gang is back since I'm much more invested in them than the prequel stuff. That only really popped for me for a couple of episodes, so lukewarm.

Horimiya S2: This is basically more of the back half of Horimiya S1. It's fine, often fun but the reason that show hit as hard as it did was off the strength of the main romance and this doesn't hit that spot (unsurprisingly)

Masmune Kun's Revenge S2: I thought this was going somewhere incredibly interesting and then it completely collapsed on the final episode bringing me flashbacks of the finale for How I Met Your Mother.

In what feels typical for this year sequels I've been looking forward to haven't really been firing. Need to find something decent from this season to binge through at the end because otherwise it feels pretty dead.

As silly as the concept is, the people doing vending machine did a good job making the idea work. Hell, even the last thing Boxxo says in the last episode is "Being reborn as a vending machine the dungeon in another world is ridiculous. But there I was, thinking I'd like to keep living this sort of life!"

Gotta respect a show that knows what it is and just tries to be the best at it.

It has Bradio doing the OP song and nothing will take away from that.

Wondering how Murder Farce will do its last episode because after what just happened I can’t see any outcome that doesn’t have massive “We did it Patrick! We saved the City!” SpongeBob energy. Also the hero just brutally murdered like 3 innocent people, I mean yeah it was technically self-defense but still.

Quick glance and it sucks cause it’s not an art style it’s an animation style. It’s 3DCG. You can tell by the jerky movements. It looks better than other things but it’s still not great.

controversial opinion: i actually really like the first ED too

but yeah if you watch that video you no longer have a compelling reason to watch captain earth. i recall being underwhelmed by the mech fights which like, come on. at least do that part well.

i think the launch sequence was pretty neat though?

Star Driver was perfect and Captain Earth felt like it was a video game reusing Star Driver assets. Like when your playing some game that obviously didn’t get enough dev time, and recognize a canned animation the first time it’s used in-game because you saw it in another much better game 5 years ago.

They must have been really confident about this, because they are making two different video games based on it:
