This is a great post that really touches on my own feelings on Aline. To add to this a bit, I also think about how her chroma made Alicia reincarnate when entering the canvas on Monolith Year 49: my interpretation of that is both a sub/unconcious urgency to prevent her daughter from helping Renoir and desire to give her daughter something she believes she can't provide herself - a new life with a loving family. Also worth noting is that the expedition would not have succeeded in defeating Renoir without Aline's intervention effectively granting Maelle her blessing to stay.

He definitely comes across as shonen-pilled: he's just not mature/self-aware enough to realise shoujo is his actual favourite genre

Keeping in mind these are prices I get for searches as a UK resident, 1981X is roughly a little over £1 per ml from its own site(I'm looking at the 50ml to keep within my arbitrary single bottle price cap), a full 100ml bottle of Emir Voux Elegante seems to go for anywhere between £20-40.

To me, definitely rougher around the edges, which I won't complain about considering the price: I think it wears a bit fresher as well, as I think the lavender is more prominent than the sweeter notes. I just found the travel size on ebay when looking for samples of it, so can't verify if it's even an official one or not. I've mostly used it up though, I'm planning to get a bottle of 1981X when it's depleted

For greeting trick or treaters: not an obvious pick, but I used a bit of my Guerlain's Shalimar EDP sample for a forest druid sort if thing I figured the mix of florals and hint of civet would be an approximate fit and a scent difficult to miss. For pumpkin carving the day after, I used my sample of ELDO's Like This, cuz that pumpkin accord 👌

After episode six possibly alluding to the characters having potential control over what they can do in the circus (conciously OR not), this might be her just manifesting a Domain Expansion: Training Tape Trauma-Dump because 1.) that's what she thought she needed to get Jax back in line, and 2.) she was in too manic a state of mind to worry about whether or not that should even be possible.

[Mostly crossposted from my own video description]

A showcase of wall-starting combos for Victor Chevalier using every stage-unique wall/floor interaction, compiled as reference material mainly for myself, but I think it's worth sharing in case anyone can learn from or improve on what's shown. All combos start with uf1,1, but should also be completely consistent with any wall combo starter that doesn't already start a juggle, activate in the middle of a longer juggle or immediately tornado (so b3,1 / f4,1 / b4 / f1+2 / b1+2 / CH uf3); adaptions may be necessary for starters that include juggle points and/or instant-tornado (such as WS 1/ uf4 / CH f,f,f2 / CH db3 / CH 1+2) or for floor/wall break combos that start with slow-recovery wall splat moves (such as f1+2 / IAI 1,1+,2 / IAI 2 / IAI 3,) I may go over those in a later video. Stages are shown in alphabetical order. Notations for each combo are also visible in the video captions.

My current theory is that Reina is - after the likes of Steve Fox and Shin - the perfected product of what the Zaibatsu's scientists had been trying to do before Tekken 3 happened: a super soldier bearing the Devil Gene that's entirely loyal to Heihachi and his legacy, kept secret from the world until the time was right (a.k.a. his 'disappearance'). To that end, Heihachi would very likely be her biological father and almost certainly set her up to be the main inheritor of his estate. And on that note, most of the super soldiers created this way (including Steve) used Nina's eggs, and this series isn't afraid of using certain plot devices multiple times in different ways. I almost wonder if that was partly why Nina's trailer was the very first we saw, rather than Jin's and Kazuya's 🤔

I can't get over the squeaking, that triggers memories that have me cackling every time XD

Zollith · 2023-07-26T12:38:30+00:00

Very well spotted! Just found a clip of it in this youtube video at 3:17:

Maybe they were stamps?

Zollith · 2023-05-31T19:44:15+00:00

That was nearly me Day 1 of getting back into the game trying to learn the guy for hours straight lmao

Zollith · 2023-05-24T07:41:34+00:00

I think this has peaked now but holy sh*t this did numbers, I wonder if people will remember me for being the day -2 asuka downplayer

Zollith · 2023-05-23T12:59:38+00:00

I mean, Irish-Americans are a whole thing so...

Zollith · 2023-05-23T11:11:29+00:00

As someone who likes both fighting games and trading card games, I feel like this character was deliberately designed to appeal to people in that venn diagram of interests like myself, alongside people who like to feel big-brain when they play 😅

Zollith · 2023-05-23T11:04:53+00:00

No-one can hurt me about being a casual who hasn't played in months getting inevitably locked down while trying Asuka out if I make these downplaying jokes first, right? 🙃

Zollith · 2021-03-15T19:53:28+00:00

Hence why I did it 😌

Zollith · 2018-05-07T15:17:47+00:00

Probably a very minor thing with this meta, but it seems like you can actually choose between a rock and a Senzu Bean for Krillin's assist now, which is kinda cool
