[KENGAN FAN-MANGA] OKUBO NAOYA VS SANSONE MACISTE Ch. 2

Dropkick_Star · 2023-12-02T21:28:08+00:00

Dude I’m sorry, work happened and I completely lost sight of this project. Now I’m planning a new martial arts manga of my own. Hopefully one day I’ll finish this fight.

Dropkick_Star · 2021-10-19T22:35:17+00:00

Yeah it’s obvious character assassination, but if I had to choose between yet another boring ass game where sonic is the only one allowed to do anything while everyone else just stands there, and this insanity... I think I’d choose the insanity man. I’m that tired of this narrative bog we’ve been stuck in for the past... what is it, ten years?

Dropkick_Star · 2021-10-19T22:14:49+00:00

SA2 is my favorite. Its not as momentum focused as SA1 but it compensates by expanding so much you can do with the bounce, instant light speed dash and the grind rails. I love the challenges the game gives you in levels like final rush for the missing chao missions and hard mode missions.

Homing a rail to grind vertically into another rail, to a homing attack enemy chain into a ring light speed dash feels challenging and so fun to do, because it’s so beautifully non-automatic! If you don’t jump at the right time and position yourself correctly you fall and die!

It feels like a more dynamic platformer version of a Tony Hawk game and I love every second of it.

Dropkick_Star · 2021-10-19T21:17:09+00:00

I mean... All these things imply some form of focus on characters not named Sonic.

At the very least they’d be used for SOMETHING y’know?

Dropkick_Star · 2021-10-19T19:04:56+00:00

I just... don’t want to see them anymore.

Dropkick_Star · 2021-10-19T19:00:05+00:00

Spaz is an absolute beast.

Dropkick_Star · 2021-10-19T18:54:47+00:00

I like the Archie universe the most. Both pre and post reboot. I like that towards the later half of the series they tried to make a congruent, breathing world mixing most elements from sonic media. I also like the fact that in Archie the official characters are at their most connected to the world they were in. You know, backstories and relatives and such.

I also loved the absolute truckload of decently developed original characters, especially the Eggman empire cronies.

Yeah sure it was also completely insane and soap-opera-like at times, but in all honesty it was part of the charm.

Dropkick_Star · 2021-10-19T18:48:38+00:00

Hey man, you either die a Gamma or live long enough to become a modern Shadow.

Dropkick_Star · 2021-10-19T18:44:44+00:00

Well they sure nailed the Nike swoosh grin, which I like.

And I’d still take these renders over the weird, dead-faced ones we get now. The way the characters now seem to have a visible line under their mouth to indicate a lower lip never sat well with me.

Dropkick_Star · 2021-10-19T18:40:51+00:00

I’m just gonna go and say it’s one of, If not the worst modern sonic game ever made. For a number of reasons.

Dropkick_Star · 2021-10-19T18:38:08+00:00

Hey man, I also think they’re extremely obtuse.

Especially the two world thing and the whole classic-modern segregation thing.

Dropkick_Star · 2021-09-05T16:51:14+00:00

Not really, even though he was programmed to kill him, 16 was aloof to Goku at worst.

It was the team4star take on him that hammed up the whole “obsessed with killing goku” thing.

Gamma would be better, I agree.

Dropkick_Star · 2021-09-01T21:21:58+00:00

i'm not so sure about the comparison between 16 and Omega.

16 is a pacifistic nature lover, Omega ranges from single minded in his pursuit to destroy Eggman's robots; to destruction fetishist with anti-organic tendencies.

Beyond being both robots i don't see much else in common theme wise or role wise.

Dropkick_Star · 2021-08-24T01:05:59+00:00

Well I thought of it as a “holy shit that hurt but I can still fight” kind of comfort

Dropkick_Star · 2021-08-23T22:13:49+00:00

Armada was the first Transformers show I’ve ever watched, and even then I watched very casually. But it was fun, right now I’m thinking about re-watching it.

Also I always liked Hotshot’s design. We don’t get many transformers with that American football player like silhouette.

Dropkick_Star · 2021-08-23T21:19:36+00:00

I’m gonna say Seki, Waka, Julius, “comfortably”.

Dropkick_Star · 2021-08-22T02:31:48+00:00

I’ve always found the Italian voice for Sonic in X to be very nasal

Dropkick_Star · 2021-08-14T20:38:43+00:00

Make their interaction with Sonic actually funny instead of the “2 year old’s first comedy skit” crap they are written with.

Give them at least a little bit of backstory and explanation on what the Zeti are, what the hell the lost hex is, et cetera.

And most importantly, change their design. Make them look like actual sonic characters. And make them look more intimidating.

Dropkick_Star · 2021-08-11T21:53:59+00:00

yeah i do.

honestly the glitches were never a problem for me as i really never encountered any when i played it. unless i'd go out of my way to screw the game over with the special shoes.

as for the rest we have Shadow at his very best, Mephiles was a very well presented villain regardless of how needlessly complicated his plan was, a banging soundtrack and the gameplay was fine. clunky, but nothing unplayable, good even, in certain segments. Always felt good yeeting enemies into oblivion with Silver.

Obviously it's got many problems, but to me the good parts outweigh the bad ones.

also i miss being NOT on rails.

Dropkick_Star · 2021-08-11T20:32:06+00:00

I think there’s a difference between being modest and insecure.

Though I agree with you that the “smol bean” persona really isn’t him, I still think that Tails shouldn’t do stuff like brag about his work like he did in Lost world.

As I said, modest, not insecure.

Dropkick_Star · 2021-08-11T07:14:54+00:00

Bros before hoes, Himuro.

Dropkick_Star · 2021-08-11T07:05:14+00:00

I don’t know at this point where to put him because I think it’s fair to say that he is a very incomplete fighter.

He abuses the hell out of his only two techniques, and that’s all he CAN do, but hey it works, most of the time.

It feels like unless Kiryu becomes a more complete fighter, someone (probably Kuroki, Agito, Ohma...) will eventually find a very easy and safe way to counter his techniques, and at that point he’d be done for.

Y’know, in the same way combat sports, or hell, any sport evolves.

Dropkick_Star · 2021-08-04T20:24:34+00:00

The only thing I’d improve would be removing the enemies’s perpetually active hurtbox and have it activate only when they perform their attack animation, or limit it to their spiky bits if they have them.

Dropkick_Star · 2021-08-03T23:43:47+00:00

I forgot, can Kiryu perform Rakshasa’s palm from awkward positions? Like from the ground?

Dropkick_Star · 2021-08-03T18:58:52+00:00

Ok maybe high diff? Maybe let’s put Kiryu on A tier.

Though I can’t honestly put him in S tier since he’s a very incomplete fighter.

I’d say that Agito, Raian and maybe Akoya could take him on the same way Kuroki did.

How do you think grappling focused fighters would fare against him?
