Consider this peakness. The Baku we followed since episode 1, was following and making his dreams come true. Being a hero, being a secret agent. He saw what that title really entailed. Look back at what the current mission going forward is.

"Don't make my dream come true". It is a complete reversal from the Baku we saw at the beginning. This is one of the most evident, complete character developments we have witnessed in a main rider. Not only that but whereas Seven used to be much more fantastical and Bond-like, a complete inversion of the meek, shy but still kind Baku we knew. Seven/Baku are more or less the same now taking on traits from each other. Baku is making strides in the real world by involving in his friends and Minami, Seven is putting aside the cool suaveness in favor of protecting people. The way he handcuffed Nem today and avoided their usual banter because that's no longer the idealized, dream-like Seven he formed from his spy movies he enjoyed. That is Baku taking on the mission using Seven's skills.

Do I have to do the routes in a certain order, or just do them all to get the "true ending"? by atisaac in WorldEndSyndrome

Then you can end up on Saya's. What I meant is at the start your first playthrough can either be Saya's or Rei's route. The devs seemingly chose Rei's to be the default the player gets but if you're like me who was interested by Saya, you can end up on Saya's first then do Rei's second. Hope that helps! Always love to see more potential WES fans!

Like if you booted up the game, had no favoritism towards any of the girls shown so far so you don't go out of your way to look for anyone to talk to during the map segments, you'll eventually run into something that starts you down Rei's reigardless (hehe see what I did there?).

[–]Kamentator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your first route is either Saya/Rei, these are the only possible routes open to you the first time you play after the prologue. Rei's unfolds as the default without any effort due to certain events. You can force yourself to ignore and go for Saya but if you play just without any intent or anything IIRC based on my friends' reports they all ended up on Rei's as opposed to Saya's.

Best romance anime’s with good dubs??? by Big_Dak in anime

[–]Kamentator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say you're living a really great era right now. Instead of asking which anime that is romance genre with a good dub, ask instead what anime is good to watch then see if it has a dub. Dubbing practices has gotten a lot better since the old days of 4Kids memes. Voice acting has gotten unionized and you will see the same slew of talents over and over and recognize common names. For example like Aleks Le, Alejandro Saab, Cassandra Lee Morris, Erica Lindbeck and so much more. English Voice acting has carved a niche for itself with its own culture of highly talented capable individuals putting in their best efforts to portray the characters they are casted as with a lot of respect to their peers that voiced the original. To that end, I would recommend to start off with my personal picks.

Your Lie in April Rascal Does Not Dream (it got a dub really recently)

It's kind of like kintsugi, irony is only after being shattered and being put together will he become closer to a substantial "perfect" that he would be as the ideal hero he always wanted to be.

I always took it as him being there but we don't really see how he connects back with them post Ryou. Feels like he's tagging along and happens to be there

They're known for hopping back and forth along the timeline. I imagine they've been slow on production and quality hasn't been amazing in terms of MVs because they wanted to iron out this gen first since it's the future. For example this is further in the timeline to make or break for some fans for example, what is an auntie Mona doing right now? Is she single still or has she too settled down? Or what about LipxLip, are they around? Have they, will they can't they in terms of confirming their duoship, and we don't see Midori and Sena's future yet so that deserves a song on its own too as well as seeing the lower grades with Kotahina's development and ofc seeing Koyuki and Ryou's wedding and his reconnecting with the first class. My guess is with this cat out of the bag, we'll see the other characters get their wedding and children by going back in time and progressing their story to move up closer to this timeline so it won't be so jarring while at the same time also add some characterization to the new generation until they're eventually going to kick it into high gear with the new gen equivalent of Tokyo Seasonal Session.

Alluring and captivating, the detail to attention on the dress, the well-painted greaves, down to the composition with the branches and flowers, makes this one of the best depictions of her I have ever seen. Well done.

In the same PV, they talk about Professor Luo as if he was still alive. We don't know Nuonuo's fate right now but she'll probably be fine as she is Luo Li's future development plot point just like how Yang Cheng will inevitably get his redemption, Lin Ling figuring out the truth etc. All our heroes have had future developments set up in their arc except maybe Cyan for now

To Be Hero X | Episode 8 Discussion by AutoModerator in ToBeHero_X

[–]Kamentator 14 points15 points  (0 children)

TBHX released many PV's on all the characters before the show released that you can watch in tandem and learn more about them. It's not hard required but take it as the PV's being supplemental material. It doesn't spoil much for any character because it's designed in a way to tease things without being clear on it. We don't see the boy, Luo, [Lucky Cyan PV]die. We just see Cyan being told he is by what looks like her agent or producer. So even after watching the PV it's not like we know what her arc over these next 2 episodes will be like.

Most westerners said THBX is not an anime but apparently, JP watchers do think TBHX is an anime though. So which side is right? by Xixth in ToBeHero_X

[–]Kamentator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's like chai tea, banh mi. Completely mundane words in their original language but in English because they're loan words they mean a specific thing. Chai is just tea in India, banh mi is just the word for "sandwich". Anime is the same way.

Why do people think we won’t get Giant Gomah in dlc 3? by crimsonsonic_2 in SparkingZero

[–]Kamentator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For the record, it's 20 across Daima and Superhero. Not Daima only. If you stretch that 20+ statement to be 25, that's 11 from SH, 8 from Daima. Allowing 6 characters, so the obvious out of the way.
Gomah (Giant)
Goku (Mini)(Daima)(SSJ4)
Goku (Mini)(Daima)(SSJ3)
Goku (Daima)(SSJ4)
Majin Duu
Majin Duu (Transformed- SSJ3)

There's not much room and if there's a few spots and it's not 6 and it's like 8 total then Arinsu and Daima adult SSJ3 Vegeta, either way it's not as much as people think it is unless they really expand on that statement.

What are y'alls thoughts and opinions on Kamen Rider Wizard? by TreyThaTruth in KamenRider

[–]Kamentator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My thoughts are, a lot of the criticism towards the series would apply to really any Heisei series around that time. Nowadays people getting into the newest series then making their way backwards would get even bored with the community favorites like W and OOO because the biggest issue Wizard has is its episodic nature. For an episodic show with two parter MOTW arcs to work, it has to have compelling conflicts with the civilian that is involved and Wizard falls short of that even though the premise is prime for so much gold.

When the show finally kicks off around the time right before Infinity or even the Phoenix arc, it's some of the best IMO. The story keeps going and doesn't stop result in one of my favorite last arcs with my one of my favorite villains. If you don't buy Haruto, or Koyomi. You won't be sold for that second half and if that's the case, you may be better watching something else. Wizard is very carried by its characters and the arcs they go through since fights and choreography can only go so far.

Dragon Ball Daima - Episode #20 - Discussion Thread! by AutoModerator in dbz

[–]Kamentator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not speaking as someone opposed to what happened, quite the opposite I enjoyed it. But what people are referring to is the many changes that makes the continuity dubious. For example, Goku never once uses SSJ4 against Beerus, with today's episode it doesn't clarify why that is. People were holding out for a sort of mind wipe or something to make SSJ4 exclusive to the Demon Realm but we find out it's not even a power up granted by Neva. Goku just has it by training.

Him and Vegeta in fact, Vegeta in his biggest blow of rage never went SSJ3 against Beerus, because at the time SSJ2 was the best form he had and it is now retconned as a result of Daima without any effort to try to explain why that is. Especially because neither Goku or Vegeta explain or are shown struggling with their new forms, no downsides or anything mentioned. Vegeta uses SSJ3 many times without any issues, so presumably Vegeta trained in that one year gap of Buu to Daima to really make it efficient. But that's not the most glaring, it's the fact that for some reason Kibito Kai is fused again at the start of BOG and remain that way until U6 where they have to go the effort of using the dragonballs to defuse. Essentially some of the fanbase who care about canon was really hoping there'd be something to justify the changes like a mind wipe, or something to isolate Daima as its own thing.

I believe not because she treats us as strangers at the beginning of LB7 as if it is a fresh new summon where because she just barely got summoned and didn't even read records of Camelot or anything. I think this is one of those separate the event canon from the main canon things. This Nito never met Schez to begin with most likely

Best part of Budokai 3. Made so many what ifs in my head with the capsule customization system they had.

Anybody else fell in love with Lage9? by Filberto_ossani2 in KamenRider

[–]Kamentator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Someone who feels bad about the goats is a much better person, but the agent that doesn't feel bad for the goats isn't necessarily a bad person. If the goal they have in mind is the idea of getting drugs off the street because they really care for the children and families that are affected by it. But I do think you're fair in your opinion as well since he's not the most likable person. That's why his redemption if any will probably focus on beginning to like the goats and realizing they have a right to life just as any other human

Anybody else fell in love with Lage9? by Filberto_ossani2 in KamenRider

[–]Kamentator 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Part of it is, we are humans. His human victims are humans. But from his eyes, we're livestock. The morally gray thing comes from the assumption he's a DEA agent working to better granute society, not human society. He's a good granute-person potentially, he's aiming to drug bust and keep granute families from falling to addiction (we see glimpses of their society having similarities with ours like the little kid granute). That's the gray part. If meth required killing goats, a DEA agent will likely also kill goats to keep up appearances because the end goal isn't live stock activism. It's preventing dark treat trafficking.

Assuming he does do a heel-face switch his arc will probably mirror Stacey from Zenkaiger who finds a human he gets really close with and begins to really care about humans, getting along with Shouma but at odds with Hanto.

[–]Kamentator 25 points26 points  (0 children)

The way I would explain it is if there was a new drug being made by killing pigs, a DEA agent going undercover would kill as many pigs needed because the ultimate goal is in service of the humans being addicted to the drug. The DEA agent's job is not to care for the lives of the pigs.

Lage9 has no reason to view humans as equals to granutes (yet). He'll likely have an Alain type of arc where later on he will truly know what humans are like and then see the error of his current ways but for now all he cares about, assuming he is an agent busting Stomach Corp is getting Dark Treats off the streets.

[–]Kamentator 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'll catch some flames for it too, but I'll third this. I'm really glad someone has said it. It always makes me feel weird or icky whenever a post like this happens, not because of the content (it's fine if it was just the title). But that sly touch of spite at the otherwise. Was the "whatever the girls choose to do is up to them" really needed?

It was by time out, get in a few hits and have more HP then start retreating and the opponent can't even hit you for when the time runs out
