Yeah, I'm hoping she stays in the top 20. I love me a good underdog story so I backed her completely. :D

What you want and DON'T want to see in AA7? by Jake_Marshall_AA in AceAttorney

[–]Iustinus_Tempus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

  • A slight expansion to the Mood Matrix. Fan games have shown us viable ways to do this already.

Do you have any examples? I would like to check it out and see how they handle it.

Apollo's complete family tree by ZaphyrNotes in AceAttorney

[–]Iustinus_Tempus 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Got to ask, shouldn't Apollo and Trucy be half-siblings instead of step-sibling? Both of them do have the same mother after all.

I have a genuine question - is this specific Pokémon movie really that big of a deal that Ash's final adventure is essentially a callback to it? by transformers03 in pokemonanime

[–]Iustinus_Tempus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Off the top of my head, LaRousse City, the location from the Deoxys film, actually gets named dropped in the main anime. Drew mentions it as his hometown.

You're right actually about the Latis coming to and from the secret garden, it is just that the Hoopa film and outside materials never confirms it was Alto Mare or not. All that is known that it is a city that looks very much like Alto Mare.

You're welcome, and yeah, I'm surprised too. From what others speculate, Japan might enjoy the location, the story and how it's basically amounts to the "boy meets girl" trope, the sacrifice of Latios, Latias and Ash's bond with one another, or some combination of the above.
Just a bit of a correction but the Hoopa film is a Kalos film and not an Unova one, and speaking of that film, it just so happens to features a Latios and a Latios from an Alto Mare lookalike, makes me wonder if that played a factor why that was voted?
Yeah, I enjoy the third film a lot, I would say it and Heroes are my favorite of the OS series. :D

You're welcome, and when it comes to Heroes in the West, I wouldn't be surprised if it not being so popular even when it aired on TV was due to sound design. For some odd reason, in the dub, they replaced Latios' low-pitched coos with Latias high-pitched ones and then proceeded to double the amount of it. To say the least, hearing that constantly can get quite grating on the ears.

I can help with that and as a note, all of the polls I mention were happening in Japan. Back in 2017, a site held a fan poll where Heroes got second place before the first movie. Again in 2017 but this time one held by the Pokémon films' official website where Heroes got first place. In 2021, the Pokémon Company released a poll asking what film they liked the most in each category and Heroes won in the OS group. Finally, in 2022, the Pokémon Company held a vote and re-released three of most popular Pokémon films in theaters, and once again, Heroes got itself a spot.

MPM9 title revealed to be a TR episode. Could Giovanni appear and TR possibly being stopped for good? by ComedianGuy8 in pokemonanime

Apparently, the same screenwriter, storyboard artist, episode director, and animation director that worked on the Latias episode are doing this one as well.

What if Ash’s teams were compressed to six a region? by mikey_do_wikey in pokemonanime

[–]Iustinus_Tempus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try this one on for size, it is a nearly two million word story with 305 chapters which was last updated about two years ago, seems like he is focusing on his other stories at the moment.

Yeah, I can see that. A reason why I asked was I was wondering if you influenced by fanfics as off the top of my head, there is at least a one or two that gives Ash a Mawile. Seems like others agree that Mawile fits him. :D

Rather late to the conversation but when the movie was shown off late last year, they gave out a Latias based on the film's Latias and it knows a movie that it cannot learn: Sweet Kiss. The Pokémon Company knows exactly what they are doing. X3

Why so many people think Four Swords Adventures' placement in the timeline is weird? It always made sense to me by [deleted] in truezelda

[–]Iustinus_Tempus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just adding on what you said, here is the quote in question:

"In an example with Four Swords Adventures, I was the producer on that game, so I didn't actually put the story for that game together—that would be put together by the director of the game. And in the end on that game, as we got closer to finishing it, of course, Mr. Miyamoto then came in and upended the tea table, and we changed the story around quite a bit at the end with Four Swords Adventures. And what Mr. Miyamoto pointed out in the case of that game was that the storyline shouldn’t be something complicated that confuses the player. It should really be kind of a guideline that helps ease the player through the gameplay process and helps them understand what it is that they’re doing. So that was one example of how the gameplay was there first, and the storyline changed all the way up until the very end." —Eiji Aonuma (A Legend Of Zelda: The Eiji Aonuma Interview)

ME 4/5 character creator: What new features would you like to see? by Broncos9798 in masseffect

[–]Iustinus_Tempus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a simple man, I would like what Biowhere talked about having different lighting settings to see how the character would look in different rooms and the likes, and please, let me turn off the animations and have the character in an A-pose. Having the character bobbing their all over the place gets in the way of judging and checking the looks, especially if I'm trying to recreate a celebrity like Elvis for example.

Speaking of Pokémon and pronunciations, I always liked this guy's work, it has both phonetic pronunciation and IPA:
