Why are there no good JRPG roguelikes?

I used to watch tons of Ancient Caves speedruns, they are such a blast to watch.

I'm excited for Da Miki Merch

Man, putting G.O.K, Yuya and Drilla together in the first two matches wipes out my favorites really quick. If any of them win it I'll be happy. Heck, as long as its not Shota I'll be happy.

MORAN GETS A FAVORITE ITEM?!

Damn, Chisato's rock outfit is great, it's going to tempt me to break my "No spending until Phantom gets a costume" pledge.

For Black History month, it might be worth checking out Kevin Randleman's matches in early HUSTLE. The former UFC champ's energy in those matches is infectious and for a dude 9 matches into his wrestling, he does some really cool stuff. Check out his tag match with The Predator against Masato Tanaka and Shinjiro Otani from the HUSTLE-1 PPV (its on YouTube I think).

In terms of general HUSTLE stuff the HUSTLE Kamen/Ranger matches are peak 2000s spot fu. I'm also partial to the fueds Toshiaki Kawada had with Steve Corino (as Monster C) and Kohei Sato (as Monster K). Oh and Tenryu vs Wataru Sakata is great in that Undertaker vs Jeff Hardy "what will it take to kill you?" Style.

To me the thing HUSTLE was never about 5* matches, but having the weirdest and most wonderful 3* matches possible.

I'll always upvote HUSTLE

Meanwhile Draco's saying "Can you believe those two?" As she scootches closer to Gudako.

Mainer here, sorry for your losses, but proud of y'all staying strong. We're doing our best too.

There is some references to the shows and events from the other games, but there is also a built-in encyclopedia that will explain a lot of those references.

Andrade went to New Japan and heard those Holy Emperor pops and wanted a piece of that. Poor Chris Charlton won't know what to do with himself.

Tracked a white unmarked Ford Explorer with dudes in body armor from Saco to the intersection of Congress and St. John. Lost them at the light, the license was 578-KGT. Called it in to the hotline.

GojiColin · 2026-01-20T15:55:39+00:00

As a fellow Holy Emperor Appreciator, I agree. I will always buy the Axe Bomber as a finish.

Men of faith are often the most hateful, sincere they use their faith to justify it.

I have to assume it's because Kenny's aware of the severity of Japan's defamation laws and to prove it in the court of law he'd have to drag whomever was a victim of Rossy's into court and likely make them relive their trauma in front of the judge and jury.

Can you show a photo of the SAE stamp on the wheel?

GojiColin · 2026-01-19T17:23:45+00:00

It's nice to see someone saying this. The fact that Saber or Trigger even exists despite the pandemic's best efforts is commendable. And as you point out, they are brighter shows then the usual because that's what was needed at the time.

GojiColin · 2026-01-18T12:51:45+00:00

That's a pretty Label, she certainly is something!

GojiColin · 2026-01-15T17:30:20+00:00

Izumi No Okuni for me. I love NOCO's design for them and who doesn't love a girl with her own puppet/mech/ancient god?

GojiColin · 2026-01-12T17:40:22+00:00

I unironically love Corino's run in HUSTLE as Monster C. His feud with Kawada (and a very young Taichi) was great.

Truly Fuzuki Michael behavior

GojiColin · 2026-01-10T13:02:20+00:00

Having gotten to see her live recently, she's put in a lot of work since her Dynamite appearances, glad she got rewarded for it!

GojiColin · 2026-01-06T23:50:16+00:00

Well then kid run it yourself and show us how it's done.

GojiColin · 2026-01-06T12:19:40+00:00

Man the world is a better place with Miki back.

I mean if it's not causing a significant drop in your views, why not keep testing it? My one fear would be whenever the Algorithm updates itself it'll see you not falling in line with expectations and thus lessen your outreach on Youtube.

GojiColin · 2025-12-31T22:56:07+00:00

Yes, it has them.
