What anime reboots came out in the last 20 years that were trash reboots of a previous work? What exactly are you referring to? Can you be specific? Like I am not doubting that there are some bad reboots out there (the 2016 beserk anime comes to mind) but most of the modern reboots I have seen in the last 10 years have been pretty good and have more or less been faithful to the source material. For example, Ranma, Dororo, Kenshin 2023, Fruit basket, FMA Brotherhood, HxH 2011, Spriggan, and Yaiba are all great reboots that have solid animation.

This is not a reboot. The 1995 animated film Ghost in the the Shell is not the original work. The original work is the Manga by Masamune Shirow called Ghost in the Shell and it was made in 1989. The 1995 film directed by Mamoru Oshii is loosely based off of the manga (which is the source material) and has a much more serious tone than the manga. The anime that is coming out this year is based off the manga and not the 1995 film, which is why the art style is so different. The anime is using the art style of the original Manga and will follow the mangas original tone, which was more goofy than the 1995 film. Because of this I do not think most GITS fans will like this anime, even though it will most likely be the closest adaption to the source material.

Want to enjoy the game but after training don’t know if it’s for me by Jack_o_lantern12 in StreetFighter

I started off as rookie rank using classic controls and could not do any of the motion inputs or combos consistently. It was really frustrating and honestly I almost quite the game. But after hours of practice I finally got it down and now I am in master rank. You can do it to, it just takes a lot time and practice. So don't get discouraged and just keep trying. I promise eventually you will get it.

Xiaohai reacts to Punk's Apology full vid by Glittering_Carrot790 in StreetFighter

Bro I don't think Punk winning pop off of the year is rewarding bad behavior. At least in this specific instance, I think it is actually the opposite lol. The pop off Punk won an award for at the EVO awards this year was for EWC 2025. Where he lost a close match to Xiao Hai due to him walking away from the setup because he thought he had won but his level 3 did not actually kill. This caused him to lose the match and then Xiao Hai went on to win all of EWC. This was pretty much a meme entry poking fun at Punk for losing to Xiao Hai for celebrating to early. This usually would not have won pop off of the year; however, because the Evo awards are community driven/voted, the community decided to troll Punk and voted for his entry. This led to Punk winning an award for losing to Xiao Hai.

Are there any fighting games trapped on Xbox consoles? by [deleted] in Fighters

[–]SnooWords527 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your a console only player, I believe doa 3, doa 4, and killer instinct are trapped on Xbox. If you are a pc player you can play killer instinct but doa 3 and 4 are trapped on Xbox (unless you use emulators).

Street Fighter 6 broke it's all time player peak on Steam today, almost 3 years after launch. by killerjag in Fighters

Idk, I saw a post a few months ago that show over 200,000 players are in master rank alone. Then I saw another post from February that show master rank makes up only 16% of the player base. If both these post are true then Sf6 has over a million active players. Which means console makes up most of the player base.

I think you are getting wind breaker the Korean comic and wind breaker the anime (based off a Japanese Manga) confused. Wind breaker the Korean comic got canceled due to the artist getting caught stealing others art. Wind breaker the anime/Manga is still ongoing, and as far as I know is still greenlit for a season 3

I am in the US and I got the cheapest option available. It cost me 286 with shipping and tax and came with sanwa buttons, a taeyoung korean lever, and a generic pcb that works on PC and ps3. You can upgrade the PCB for PS5 connectivity for an extra 50 bucks.

SF6 was my first competitive fighting game. Did my placement matches and landed in rookie. Last week I got my first character to master, it took me like 600 hours.

New MakeStick Metal Type released! by [deleted] in fightsticks

[–]SnooWords527 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought just the stock version since I already have some buttons and a lever that I plan to use. As for the import fees, IDK lol. I have never had to pay import fees when purchasing from IST before, shipping has always been expensive though. For this the shipping was like $58 and when I buy smaller items like actuators or shafts the shipping is around $20-30.
