I think I still like 999 more than Ever17.  Ever17 is good, but 999 is just so much funner.

the first thing that popped into my head when seeing IronyOwl's new RTD

Spoiler: *Twitch* (click to show/hide)

If you've seen the show...yeah, you get a cookie and a chance to cringe.

Silly Japan and their cross dressing protagonists :P

Haven't, but I mean to!

Well, read the manga, not watch the anime, but same deal.

The kitchenette mold free, you move on to the pantry. it's nasty in there. The bacon is grazing on the lettuce. The ham is having an illicit affair with the prime rib, The potatoes see all, know all. A rat in boxer shorts smoking a foul smelling cigar is banging on a cabinet shouting about rent money.

Oh? What else have they done that you haven't liked?

Here. It's available a bunch of different places, I'm sure, but I just use Batoto now, on Toony's recommendation.

Oh plenty.  They did Fate/stay night and Umineko which are two VNs I like and they did them quite poorly.  Umineko was rushed and made no sense (and it's one of my favorite VNs) while F/sn was boring (not that the VN was boring a lot but it had other merits).  Higurashi was okay but I still wasn't able to finish it.  I also watched the first episode of the Zombie Desu show and it wasn't terribly interesting or funny to me.  The UBW movie was like a high budget Xin and I wanted to read this manga I found called Shion no Ou but it was untranslated fully so I was like okay let's watch the anime but nope DEEN did it.  I can't watch DEEN.

Oh gog they did Bomberman Jetters?  Haha

Deen in three words: Ginga Densetsu Weed.

Initial D was pretty good, probably the best racing fiction I've come across, not that it has much competition, and Patlabor remains the definitive real robot series (because no one's seen FLAG). Other than that I'm having trouble thinking of stuff they did that was good.

No using. That's not what freedom is for.

The FE4 manga is turning out well, it's finally starting to diverge from the game's story every so slightly. Examples:

-I'm liking how romance just spontaneously happens, instead of showing what would be the games equivalent of having them stand next to eachother for weeks at a time, which is the player's way of mushing their faces together like Barbie and Ken dolls.

-The manga also blatantly disregards the weapon triangle. Come on, I mean, no axe user in the entire world poses a threat to Ayra, let alone can fight on equal footing with her.

-Dark Magic, rather than just being generically destructive like in the game, induces a kind of evil malaria in it's victims.

-Ulir heritage doesn't give you immunity to arrows Adean, I'm intimately familiar with how it works. You're just damn... GODDAMN lucky you didn't pincushion yourself jumping into that hail of arrows.

-Turns out Sigurd is a molester. Stop grabbing women you barely know while they're bathing Sigurd, and if you do anyway, don't declare your undying love for them. It's fortunate that the Plot Gods are on your side, or that would have turned out badly.

Man, everything sounds so silly when you watch it with snarky commentary. Still, GNG is an awesome show. Love the music and the fights in it. Never got into the Weed sequel though, no chance in hell it could approach its predecessor in quality. Oh, and those that you linked were made by Toei Animation in the 80's. Deen did the 2000's sequel.

I still feel proud to finish that VN on the release week and continue to play through occasionally. Also have a dropbox download for anyone if they don't want to torrent it!

I took the time to skim through my old FE4 LP in nostalgic bliss. Boy I'm reminded about how much I loved the game from reading the manga.

I'm so happy you guys keep quoting my idiotic sleep-deprived image I uploaded last night.

Anyway I finished Ever17, yep I did it.  Blood, sweat, and headaches were involved.  I still need to fasten some loose ends and apparently two bonus CGs require getting every scene in the game (which is understandable), but the other requires doing all 250 paths or whatever.  That's impossible.  I will not sit through the game for weeks doing every path.

So yeah, a few more missing scenes (and a new epilogue) and I'm all good there.



Unfortunately I have caught myself in a KID web.  Next is...Remember11.

Awesome.
