Last time I was at a sushi restaurant, I got a 'sexy roll' without asking what it was. Turned out it was a california roll that was tempura'd and covered in spicy mayo. It was delicious, but not exactly the texture you think of when you talk about sushi.

I'm not a fan of fish flavors, and I was introduced to sushi by a vegetarian, so I like kappa maki and things involving avocado and cream cheese, and will fall back on chicken skewers and edamame if I run low on suitable vittles.

Update 3 - Gotta Find 1st Gear in My Giant Sushi Bar We pick up where left off after Musashi's first sushi battle victory. Now that the grunt is out of the way, time to tango with the commander and see what he's made of. ♪ BGM: Republic ♫ But first, we've got a new piece of UI to check out, the menu. Here's where we do prep work and research. Let's briefly go through some of the options. Sprite Order: Allows you to view/edit sushi sprite teams. (More on this when we start getting more sprites.) Striker Specs: Allows you to equip various items like Lane Drive Gear, Favorite Sushi, and Prepared Item. (We don't have any of this kind of stuff, so we'll have to come back to this at a later time.) Items: Allows you to view/use items. Catalog: This is where you can get information on Well we can't do anything with the sprite order or the striker specs, so let's peek into items and the catalog real quick. Right now the only item we have is the Exp Charm S which gives a sprite 250 exp. I'm not going to use it anytime soon, in fact, I'm going to horde the snot out of these things to help out spites we recruit later. We can also check out our key items by hitting R. Sushi sprite essences... Is that why I smell so fi— funky? And here's your sprite pokedex or whatever. Even though it currently stops at 100 there's more than that. (It's more like 102.) Wow, look at all that sushi I'm gonna have to catalog.  Well now that's out of the way let's get back to kicking butt. Video: Battle - Captain Fammish Star Objectives - Win in 75 or fewer seconds. - Link 9 or more plates and win. - Start 1 or more sushi jubilees and win. ♪ BGM: Battle VS Soldier♫ This fight is pretty much the same as the previous one, just with slightly more health; but there is one thing I would like to point out. So far we know that attacking with stacks of the same color creates a combo, but there are other ways to gain a damage bonus and one of them involves a fair bit of precision. You see, linking big chains is great and all, but did you know that you get a 1.3x damage modifier if you link only plates with the same type of sushi? In the video, I linked 4 shrimp plates and now it'll do more damage than if I linked any 4 plates. (It gets even better when you enter sushi jubilee as the modifier turns into a 2x modifier.) Now you're wondering why don't I do this the whole match? Well for one, this early on you won't have that many opportunities to take advantage of this; and two, you've seen what it's like to play with button controls! Precision is not something I have right now.  Anyways I build up some stacks, enter sushi jubilee, and go all in on the guy. Well not quite a knock out, but one more stack of blues should do you in. ♪ BGM: Event Battle ♫ Okay I miscalculated, one more should do it!  COME ON! ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!THERE! JEEZ! ♪ BGM: Won a Match♫ Those blunders costed me an A rank. Welp, at least we got the star objectives. And a couple of level ups. Lastly, we got a skill charm which is a very important usable item as it's one of the few ways to level up our sprites' skill level. ♪ BGM: Musashi's Theme ♫ I'm guessing Jinrai wasn't paying attention to that last fight. Right, let's keep moving. Hmm, this next opponent doesn't look like an imperial soldier, judging by the silhouette. Heck, they don't even look like an adult. Who could this possibly be? Video: Tutorial - Lane Gears ♪ BGM: Kojiro's Theme ♫ K-Kojiro?! You didn't... You little rat! I have half a mind to sushi strike you into next week!! #Sushi4Days The screen flashes a couple of times and then the weird thingy Franklin gave us starts glowing and doing an impression of the world's smallest jet engine. But we did see it, when Franklin handed it to us. ♪ BGM: Preparing for a Battle ♫ Star Objectives - Win in 90 or fewer seconds. - Link 10 or more plates and win. - Earn a B grade or better and win. Ooh, Kojiro has a sushi sprite we've never seen before. Penzo, the penguin sprite, has the skill of 'Sweets Paradise'. Let's see what it does... Ah, a healing skill, but do note that it says sweets and not fruit. Sweets heal more health than fruits do. I take it Penzos are standard issue for imperial recruits. ♪ BGM: Battle VS Kojiro ♫ Oh I get it! So, uh, where's the clutch on this thing? Neato torpedo! We'll be able to save so much time with this, and be able to make bigger combos! Game's being very up-front about this, and they're not wrong. You're going to want to master manipulating the speed of your lanes. There's one small bit I wanna mention about lane gears real quick. When the gear activates and speeds things up, it doesn't decelerate back to normal in the instant you start moving again; instead the lanes will gradually slow back down. This will become a lot more noticeable when we get our hands on more-powerful gears. Anyways, let's clobber this punk. There's proof that the 1.3x modifier turns into a 2x modifier while in sushi jubilee. Alright Kojiro, open wide!! ♪ BGM: Won a Match♫ ♪ BGM: Kojiro's Theme ♫ What a sore loser... Huh, does this mean sushi sprites are closer to Monster Rancher than Pokemon? ♪ BGM: New Sushi Sprite! ♫ What? Are you gonna dump me if I don't live up to your standards?? And then this happens. If I had stuck to my original plan to make this a VLP, I would have made ya'll watch this sequence every single time it happens no matter how samey it was. ♪ BGM: Kojiro's Theme ♫ Not to worry, you're in good hands Jinrai. Well that about does it for this update, tune in next time as we tango with another imperial squad; who unfortunately are led by the worst commander ever. See you then! New Sushi Sprites #003: Penzo Secret: Known for its faniful silk hat. Skill: Sweets Paradise - Makes sweets appear in user's lanes—select them to eat them and restore HP! New Sushi #005: Orange Slices Perfect as a sour-sweet palette cleanser or a refreshing treat after soccer practice. #008: Salmon Ever beloved thanks to its perfect balance of oily and umami goodness. #020: Flounder Its hallmark characteristic is an uncannily firm texture. #024: Sweet Shrimp True to its name, this delight is renowned for its deep, full-flavored sweetness. #026: Shrimp Tempura Roll Lightly fried shrimp rolled up with rice into a perhaps perfect little bite. #029 Saltwater Eel It's melt-in-your mouth texture is perfectly complemented by a sweetly savory sauce. #031 Fatty Salmon A sticky cut of salmon with its beautiful layers of fatty goodness on full display. #032 Rainbow Roll Perhaps not every color of an actual rainbow, but sure tastes like one. One last thing before I sign off, last week, fellow LPer and good idea haver, Grandma Party, pinged me on discord saying: So I attempted to make what he described and here's the result. GP called it the "The Alabama Slamma". I call it "Doobie's Frog Out Sushi".  Rice, nori, slice of American cheese, sliced hotdog, and topped with wasabi; and my personal touch, a side of fries piled high with dipping ranch sauce. What do you think Musashi, wanna bite?  : [...]

So there are two kinds of sushi that I think are bad. One is ankimo. Ankimo is monkfish liver. At its best, it tastes like an old sea captain is giving you mouth to mouth. The other is shirako. Shirako is...hmm. I believe the technical term is "Milt." To offset the other technical term of roe. Yep. Big old mouthful of fish sperm. It doesn't taste good or feel good in your mouth and it comes in packets. Only had to try that one once. Pass.

Update 4 - Wikihow to be a Sushi Sprite Welcome back to Sushi Strikers, last time we found out that Kojiro was the rat who busted Franklin, and you know what happens to snitches, right? After that we... adopted Kojiro's sushi sprite, and now we continue the journey to save Franklin! Video: Battle - Private Scraps ♪ BGM: Soldier Scene ♫ Bumping into soldiers, sure, but what's up with the captain sliding up into frame. Where were you my dude, and what were you doing down there. Do note though, this won't be the last time he and his captain brethren do this trick. Uh oh, he found out about last week's food crime. Look bub, if you're gonna arrest me, you better arrest Grandma Party too. He came up with the idea after all.  KOJIRO!!Whatever it does, it won't stand a chance against my— Don't ya mean 'all he need to do'? Unless you're stepping up to get served. Hey, that's my line! Also who's talking? Jinrai, that you? ♪ BGM: Preparing for a Battle ♫ Star Objectives - Start 2 or more sushi jubilees and win. - Eat 50 or more plates and win. - Win with 25% or more HP. Oh hey, it's Penzo, who'da thunk? I'm more interested in seeing what our Penzo brings to the table in terms of sushi. ♪ BGM: Battle VS Soldier♫ Hmm, looks like our lanes will be a bit yellow heavy this time. So this squad of soldiers are mostly here to demonstrate new sushi sprites and skills, so they'll always start the battle with a full skill bar. Private Scraps uses Sweets Paradise right off the bat. And now his field is replaced with sweets, which will only heal him and not gain him any plates; so I have no idea why his AI is scripted to use the skill at the very start of the fight instead after taking damage. Not to mention he only eats a handful before they leave the screen! Here pal, let me show how it's done. As the game mentioned, you can eat through all these sweets quickly if mash the A button, and now we've recovered all our health. Now to finish this. ♪ BGM: Won a Match♫ Whoops, ended the battle too soon so we missed out on one of the star objectives. Well that's alright, we can just redo the stage take care of it real quick. Okay, let's get that last star. ♪ BGM: Musashi's Theme ♫ You got the Secret Striker Scroll! The game takes control from here and opens the menu. ♪ BGM: Imperial Rim ♫ Here are the buttons controls in case you need a reference. The game then opens the 8 precepts. Most of this is stuff I've already gone over, but now it has some illustrations. Here's all the different plates and their base damage values. Most sushi sprites will 'awaken' when they hit a certain level; except Jinrai, his are gated by story beats. That's one thing I've never used before, if you move the right stick on the overworld a mouse cursor appears and you can click on things to go to them. It's a little faster then just moving between stages. There's a lot of stuff in this sub-menu, and we still have two more stages to get through; so this will be it's own mini-update, info dump, or something. ♪ BGM: Musashi's Theme ♫ Way ahead of you, Jinrai. Video: Battle - Private Crumbles ♪ BGM: Soldier Scene ♫ You already pulled that trick ya dungle! Okay, what are you gonna tell me next, your shoe size? ♪ BGM: Preparing for a Battle ♫ Star Objectives - Win in 75 or fewer seconds. - Eat 10 or more types of sushi and win. - Make 3 or more glowing plates and win. Private Crumbles has himself a Tigazo, the tiger sushi sprite. And as mentioned. Tigazo has a offensive skill that allows the user to deal more damage. How much more? I dunno, I try to math it out with the numbers used in the 8 precepts, but something didn't add up correctly; so I have no idea how much more I just knows that it does more. ♪ BGM: Battle VS Soldier♫ So, unlike Scraps, Crumbles holds off on using Electrozap for a while; but when he does he hit me with 11 plate blue stack. Cheese-n-crackers! That actually really hurt! Better finish this quick. ♪ BGM: Won a Match♫ Alright let's see that A rank.  Did not expect that! This isn't just an S rank, but a Rainbow S rank which is the highest rank you can get on a stage. This mostly caught me off guard as I slowed down to let Crumbles show off electrozap.Video: Battle - Private Growlin Alright, last fight of the update. Let's see what kind of heat this guy is packing. ♪ BGM: Soldier Scene ♫ What did you just say to me?! I will slap the soy sauce from your mouth, punk!! What? You have the 'I Win' sus— Ever heard of letting people finish what they're saying?! ♪ BGM: Preparing for a Battle ♫ Star Objectives - Start 1 or more sushi jubilees and win. - Make a 2-hit combo and win. - Win with 20% or more HP. This fight features Elekan, the elephant sushi sprite. Like Electrozap, I'm not sure how much damage Sushi Shield blocks. I just know that it's not a good idea to unload your big attacks while it's up. ♪ BGM: Battle VS Soldier♫ Didn't waste time on using it. The shield surprisingly last for quite a while. This might prove to be a problem. Heh, shield or not, you're just like every other mook with a sushi sprite. What the?! Somehow he turned the tables on me! ♪ BGM: Battle Pinch♫ The second you start hearing that music, you know you've lost control over the battle. Worst of all Sweets Paradise is no where near ready. I'm sweating bullets, either I link two plates and throw or he'll hit me with those greens and loss. SUSHI GIVE ME STRENGTH!! Whew! That was a close shave! ♪ BGM: Won a Match♫ Welp, I'll have to go back and get that star. Alright, now to get that last star. And now everything is right with the world. Well that about does it for this update. Tune in next time when we break a dish with the Commander of this squad. New Sushi Sprites #006: Tigazo Secret: Can sometimes be found chasing its own tail. Skill: Electrozap - Charges plates with electricity, increasing their attack power! #009: Elekan Secret: So heavy no human could move it. Skill: Sushi Shield - Creates a shield that reduces damage taken from opponent's plates! Combat Lobster fucked around with this message at 08:38 on Sep 14, 2019 |
