I think faction wars would be cool.  Too bad no antagonists live long enough to actually form an enemy base, sigh...

The true antagonist is the malevolent god of the island who keeps killing them.

Almost finishing the golden age arc and the whole part the anime covers, after that everything is unknown.

But the manga covers many things that the anime did not, after some point it gets very, very grimdark, and there's 2 1/2 sex scenes, and they're all really fucked up and dramatic, in a very "OH CRAP WHY I'M READING THIS WHY CAN'T I STOP READING" way.

Also, godo is dwarfyness persofied.

I love it so much.
Hehe, yeah, it's awesome. I really like all the psychological stuff.

Gets progressively more fucked up as this arc comes to an end.

Also wyald.

Take everything tolkien ever said about orcs being horrible creatures. Multiply it by 400 and add rape to the equation times and you get Wyald.

I like how everyone in the hawks is such a massive badass when compared to their anime counterparts. Except for Corkus, lol.

Started Marimite Season 3, finished the first three episodes.

I like the slight art upgrade.

First episode was OK. I was initially disappointed with Yumi being greedy with Sachiko, especially considering the end of the second season was spent teaching Yumi to grow up, but I'm satisfied with how it turned out in the end. It felt like there was an abnormal amount of dangerously cheesy lines though. I really don't know how I put up with it through the entire series. I sort of roll around in the bed, fighting my blanket while I mutter or yell "oh god she's doing it again". I think it's because while definitely eyeroll-worthy, they don't sound terribly obsessive when saying those lines, the line only sticks around for a second in my head, and they are accompanied by nice background music.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I will admit that I sometimes succumb to the intense saccharinity of the dialogue and roll around with my heart fluttering.

Second episode felt really weak. Sachiko's hatred of men really doesn't feel as fleshed out as it could have been.

EDIT: Finished the third episode. Don't know how I feel about Kanako.

EDIT 2: Finished the fourth episode.

EDIT 3: Finished the fifth episode. It was OK.

I could tell because hardly any of the sports scenes were animated.

It's okay, because the voice cast is delicious, and 90% of the time, there's not a whole lot to animate anyways.

Is there any way to skip puzzles in 999?  I'm on my 4th playthrough and I've hit the point where I'm constantly doing the same puzzles over and over again being able to skip them would be nice.

No, unfortunately -- which is probably its biggest flaw. A Fate or Tsukihime-style skip function would be incredibly helpful. At the very least, once you have them memorized you can blow through most of the steps in no time.

I'm looking forward to hearing your thoughts on the true ending; I say no more to avoid even indirect spoilers.

Ridiculous.  All that it is to be human can be summarised by friendship, love or mecha.

I already have a crazy theory might as well spill the beans.

Yeah this is pretty ridiculous but the game just loves to talk about it.

Ever17 (has a guy related between the two VNs) has a very very similar problem.


EDIT:


EDITX2:
This is getting pretty serious, I'll need to write something up after I get this yet another new ending.

Holy crap this is long this might actually be a good ending?!

Inquisitioner Mozgus puts the whole warhammer 40k inquisitioners below his thumb.
And squishes them.
Very slowly.

Square face has heard from someone you don't know that you masturbated once in your life.

He's now reading the wheels, spiked chair and the eye removing clamps.
