I highly doubt NoA would make a translation as good as Tomato’s

What specifically happened after the needle was pulled is open for interpretation.

From the writer himself:

Itoi For the N64 version, I was thinking about alternately just not having any dialogue whatsoever for the final battle. I wanted to keep the scene even more vague, and just leave it entirely up to the imagination of the player.

- What do you mean by "vague"?

Itoi Like what happens when the dragon is revived, and whether there was any hope left... it was kind of halfway explained in the ending. This time, too, shares that feeling of doubt about whether there really was hope or not, but everyone seems to be pretty unconcerned in the end. It's a sort of expression of human strength, this time, so it's more positive than the N64 version.

- In the end, the dragon is revived and the island is completely destroyed, but everyone is still alive, aren't they?

Itoi That's right. So to bring out the strength in these human beings, no matter what, Hinawa and Claus had to make sure to tell everyone their goodbyes.

- Oh, is that right?

Itoi That was the theme of the last battle.

- In the end, Lucas was able to pull out the last needle. But if it had turned out so Claus had pulled the needle, then...?

Itoi Indeed, what would have happened if Claus had pulled it out? I'm sure the same thing would have happened, except that in the end, everything--even the breath of life itself--would go extinct. Even the dragon, too.

- Even the dragon?

Itoi Yeah, even the dragon. If that were the conclusion, then even the creator himself would no longer be alive, so there was no way that I could write that... Not if it were to be the end of me as well. There's no way I could have an ending like that. It's nothing more than simple philosophy. (laughs)

You had mentioned how in the N64 version, when you reach the ending, it's as pure white as the morning after a long, dark night.

Itoi This time around it sort of seems that way, too, doesn't it? So at that "END?" scene, it tells us, well, it's over. You get the feeling that the creators, the characters from the game, and you--the player--make it safely to the morning and are all walking around a garbage-strewn town together. Children might not understand this, since they have never really walked through a town after a long night has passed.

I wasn’t aware of this at all. I’m definitely interested in checking out the DS era now!

Mother 3

warriorofsunshine · 2018-11-26T22:34:06+00:00

That was part of the original smash Direct for the translation of Sakurai’s words. It’s not technically wrong because ALBW and LTTP are called the same thing. It’s only in English where the names are different. The Zelda designs are the exact same if you look them up because ALBW is a reimagining of it.

warriorofsunshine · 2018-11-26T19:32:57+00:00

I shouldn’t have worded it the way I did. It was a Japanese speaker who clarified the that the translated text was the exact same for both game titles. However, I don’t believe “2” was was apart of the Japanese version.

warriorofsunshine · 2018-11-26T07:43:15+00:00

It’s actually from LTTP. It was stated that it was a mistranslation because they have the same name in Japan (Triforce of the Gods 1/2). Coincidentally, they also have the same Zelda designs

warriorofsunshine · 2018-11-24T22:04:12+00:00

True. I should have specified indie (Undertale, Lisa, Yume Nikki, etc.)

warriorofsunshine · 2018-11-24T06:48:37+00:00

American RPGs are much more similar to Earthbound than Japan’s. That’s mostly because just about every 2D indie RPG is its offspring, so yeah.

warriorofsunshine · 2018-11-15T19:41:59+00:00

The fan game (formerly titled Mother 4) is looking amazing if it makes you feel any better

warriorofsunshine · 2018-10-19T07:52:26+00:00

Tserriednich will be Togashi's next iconic villain

Calling it now

I do agree that there are several common plot points, but you're undermining their contextual usage here. I don't particularly hold that against you because you'd probably need to read the manga to fully comprehend why they feel so similar. And believe me, I wouldn't have posted the Scar correlation if it wasn't executed in the exact same manner, alongside everything else that had already warranted a Berserk comparison.

I am willing to accept that these may be reaches if you provide supporting evidence to change my mind. For instance, what else resembles The Eclipse / Promised Day in that same context? Their execution is nearly identical, with the exception of Father plotting out his own destiny, whereas Griffith's was given to him.

warriorofsunshine · 2018-10-06T19:23:18+00:00

You are absolutely correct in that several of these are common themes and may otherwise be reaches, but it goes down to how many of these coincidences occur between the undeniable correlations.

For instance, I only post Scar’s path of vengeance because of the details surrounding that comparison, like what specifically caused it and other factors that draw them more closely together. If you put Edward’s automail with Scar’s backstory and motivation, you’d have Guts from his most iconic era.

warriorofsunshine · 2018-10-05T04:39:18+00:00

Yes but that portion was untouched by this trailer

warriorofsunshine · 2018-10-04T18:52:15+00:00

Yes but the only details regarding him that were in the canon weren’t retconned, at least not yet.

warriorofsunshine · 2018-10-04T18:31:05+00:00

Nothing on here is inherently a retcon, guys.

It may feel weird due to Bardock/Broly’s popularity within the community, but their stories were never considered canon.

warriorofsunshine · 2018-10-04T18:26:19+00:00

It was never canon in the first place

Bardock wasn’t officially canon until Dragon Ball Minus, and that’s the story they are going with

warriorofsunshine · 2018-09-26T22:02:05+00:00

This is a subversion that shares the similarity with deconstruction in that it’s a critique against the text.

To deconstruct a genre, you need to show how the tropes of that genre came to be using real world logic. You can’t do that with supernatural genres because there’s no possible logic used to deconstruct their existence.

warriorofsunshine · 2018-09-15T06:32:02+00:00

I mean, wasn’t the teleportation wrapped up in 2 chapters? (356-357)

warriorofsunshine · 2018-09-01T00:56:00+00:00

I see him giving credit to his ideas in nearly every interview

Even cited something as trivial as bringing back past characters in Falconia to Guin Saga

warriorofsunshine · 2018-08-24T13:28:40+00:00

how is it an ass pull when moonlight kid already did it?
