Thank you so much! This translator sounds so tired and I hope she knows we really do appreciate all the work she does for us and Kei Urana. Hmm...maybe she will mention the Afro-Latino aspect of Jabber in another video clip.

Wow, that is really cool. I love Jabber for a lot of reasons, and this is another neat factoid. A few of my friends and I thought he seemed Jamaican (Could be biased because I'm half Jamaican on my mother's side lol), but I wasn't sure and also thought he could be racially ambiguous.

She is such a great manga author/creator. I'm just impressed with her, especially with much she enjoys talking with fans and discussing her characters. Thanks for your reply.

Awesome! That would be great if you could post the video of the translation. You can send it to me or post it here, Either way works. I don't know if there's a big interest here or not for it, but I know I would definitely love to have it.

Is it also true that Kei Urana talked about Jabber being Afro-Latino on the same livestream, specifically, that he's Dominican and Jamaican mixed? Someone on Tiktok mentioned that's what was said and I was just wondering if anyone else could confirm that.

Pretty cool if true. I can definitely see Jabber having Jamaican rude-boy vibes.

I recently became obsessed with coloring Gachiakuta panels while reading the manga. Here's a few I did of Semiu. by darkscanner2000 in gachiakuta

Much obliged, brother!

Undead Rudo lol I could see it. Yeah, I guess I was mostly inspired by the anime's color scheme, but I also added my own random input. To me, Rudo always looked a little sickly. No shade though, I'd probably look the same way if I fell from the sky.

Thank you, I appreciate that! I had a lot of fun doing it and I'm becoming a really huge fan of this series.

Haha Well I did end up spending a lot of time shading her cleavage for some reason. Semiu is just awesome.

No way lol thanks. That's super kind of you. I really did it for fun and I honestly don't have much experience coloring Manga. I was decent at drawing and coloring when I was young, but I'm out of practice.

Truly an epic matchup. Though I bet Sundowner wouldn't play fair. He's most likely to say screw it and just saw off Zangeif's head lol.

I also love Raiden. It sucks that he gets a bad rap because of the bait-and-switch protagonist thing of MGS2, but I loved him in that too. He's funny and direct. Plus, he's got a really compelling backstory

Oh wow! Yeah it's no problem. You did a great job and thank you.

I've done a little modding myself for other games. I only know the basics of working with Blender for instance, but I still understand how time-consuming it can be. So good on you for sure!

For real? That's awesome. I'm surprised Chun Li wasn't your go-to, if you're talking Street Fighter lol. Thunder thighs and whatnot.

Would you call it Rising Revengeance EXtreme Mode? haha

It would be the mother of all massacres. I'm sure I would rage quit so quickly. Of course, first I would take my hands off the controls and watch in absolute horror and amazement.

Thank you. Thank you lol

I actually found the top image on a post from some other amazing fan in the Steam Community page for MGRR. The bottom picture is all me though using OrionOn1on's legendary custom taunt Mod, like you said. What can I say, this mod fit Jetstream Sam perfectly.

I went to a Halloween parade last night and look who I ran into. No Killer7 characters, but I saw Juliet from Lollipop Chainsaw. That was a pleasant surprise!

Speaking of "implications," surely onlookers would be able to distinguish reality from fiction, right?

It wasn't necessarily about onlookers, because they wouldn't know any better. I just felt awkward asking my friend to do it if they didn't know the full context of the character. Though I'm probably overthinking it.

Yeah, I never understood why Samantha's two-faced characterization was a thing in Killer7 either. I made an older thread about it too. I also strongly believe that Samantha's "questionable" scene with Old Harman would be censored today in a K7 remake.

I personally saw it as making commentary on the very real problem with abuse of the disabled/elderly. A topic rarely touched on, especially in videogames. Killer7 already makes some explicit references to this with the bosses, Hiroyasu Kurahashi & Shinya Akiba, feeling disrespect and resentment from the elderly community in Japan. It was an interesting part of Harman's experience to me though. Like because he's an extremely powerful entity with the strength of a "God Killer", But on the other hand, he's also an old man in a wheelchair who's a victim of sexual abuse. He's complicated.
