Reversal

Don't you sometimes get that feeling that your ideals and expressions change completely over the years? I often feel that when I see my old posts and cant help but feel "did I type this piece of shit?" well, it often feels like that for me, so have pretty much decided to re-write most of my posts these days, bear with me.

Raw has been, is, and probably will be my lifetime project, as the supposed writer I am, its the "Big story" I have been improving for about 10 years, we all have these kind of projects we like to talk about every now and then, as I have grew up, I always end up talking about these "small worlds" we have with fellow Internet and real-life friends, and really get inspired by doing so, so in this section, I humbly type what my world is about, and hopefully someday it will be a real game, comic, or just a story you may stumble upon, that is why I start here, so someday this stops being just dreams and someday turns into something real.

Introduction:

Its hot, its dark, its full of fire and industrial technology, its the underground world of RAW, a dirty and violent place where freaky rusted technology and fighting meet, gigantic caverns, deep tunnels made of rusted steel, abandoned factories, invading plagues of fungi and giant spiders, its like living in a post-apocalyptic nightmare world.

Feel like getting out of this world? too bad, getting to the surface means going through a thick shell of hard stone never pierced before, or more like, the technology to pierce that ceiling is too expensive and obsolete, anyway, who wants to go to the surface? there are not even records left of people going to the surface, people have lived underground THAT long, its just general history: that one of the many human space colonies once settled to this gigantic piece of rock thousands of years ago.

Time to get sad? not really, the civilization in RAW is not a depressing, dying one, in fact, humans are as hot-blooded and strong willed as ever, they are just adjusted to a different environment than other civilizations, life here consists of the willing of the strongest, in general, people make a living from finding whatever resources they can, moving convoys, there are so many unknown human colonies and convoys lost in the underground world, that you never really know what you will find the next day from drifting in some tunnel, there are also, settled amazingly huge metropolises, what you could call the "normal people" the lifestyles of these can relate to how we normally live, they have Internet, and good transportation.

Raw takes place in a special region, called "El matadero" this one, is probably one of the most violent regions in the entire planet, apart from the fact it is on a much lower level, reaching the core of the planet, making it a very hot place, the people here only live from 2 ways, stealing or bounty hunting, the first kill and steal whatever they feel like, while the other do a living by keeping a watch from the killers and stealers, usually by killing them.

Its a complete outlaw area, full of bounty hunter clans and war zones, even crazier, there is a law that if an outlaw with a bounty, kills another head bounty, his own bounty gets "paid" the exact amount of the person he killed, resulting in every important person in the area being a possible "target" for the safety of another.

Most of these bounty and outlaw clans seek either survival or wealth, its a never ending cycle of killing and being killed, but even in this horrible region, spawned from an underground civilization, there is a very interesting clan in particular.

A clan with objectives that would even look ridiculous for normal, people from the cities, this clan seeks to go to the surface, what this humanity has forgotten, to find out what is left of that place.

As far as I have told you, RAW sounds like some sort of Sci-fi theme star wars movie of sorts, except, the focus on this story is different from most stories.

First of all, this story doesn't seek an "end" a conclusion, something like this clan finding the surface and THE END AND SO ON HUMANS FOUND A BETTER PATH, I want to create a world were many stories can come up, a world that can do more than just a "cool story".

Settled that, RAW is inspired on delivering Hardcore, speedy and intelligent Fights, some inspired on the so hated shounen-manga genre, introducing freaky characters with interesting battle styles and catchy skills, fighting in interesting industrial ruins and caves in fact you can compare RAW to games like metal gear or guilty gear (Raw could turn out to be a game) where you are introduced these interesting enemies or situations for yourself to defeat, RAW is a combination of the fighting in guilty gear and the adventure feeling and twists of metal gear, in a different, post-apocalyptic underground setting.

So mainly, the story is about this clan seeking a way to go to the surface, while it tries to survive from the many other killers and situations that take place in "el matadero".

It has been like 10 years since I became a what you could say, hardcore anime fan, back in the days, the most popular anime used to be sci-fi stuff, like Mechas, cowboy bebop and Evangelion, anime was getting popular for showing crazy characters, ideas and stories. back in they day Trigun and Evangelion where the shit, and that was okay, they where quite complete, from sexual tension, Philosophic stories, crazy mechanic designs, etc.

Today its a different story, somewhere, something went TERRIBLY wrong, Badass anime is getting more and MORE rare, while other genre is taking up, a BAD Genre, nowdays, Anime fans are turning into retards, and now I usually feel ashamed of being called an anime fan for 2 reasons: Moe and Kyoto animation.

The first is an already old Concept, Moe in short words, means "cute and fuckable girl" one of the reasons people love anime, take for example, Love hina is a harem show that focuses on showing moe girls.

The problem, its that for the past of years, it was an obscure concept, you usually saw anime to entertain you and show you entertaining stories of sci-fi, Moe-focused anime existed, it was fun to watch, but once people got serious they always ignored it and focused on more Serious anime, Badass and serious stories where respected.

Slowly, more and more anime is getting produced, but not for good, the fans are asking for more Moe and moe and harem and moe and moe its getting kind of retarded, even worse, the anime industry is ansewering them, each year, more and more shows adapted on dating sims are coming out, to the point its just ridiculous, I used to like these shows, but about one per year, back in the day we just had stuff like Ranma and Azumanga, and that was okay.

Then Kyoto animation came. and everything just went to shit.

Basically, Kyoto animation is a studio whose only achievement has been Full metal panic! special episodes.

I still dont get why the fandom, but after they released haruhi, Anime fans exploded, you could see blogs everywhere with stuff like "THIS HARUHI ANIMU IS FUKKEN AWESOME".

so I downloaded it, fell asleep with the first episode (the 0 one) and jumped to the second one.

It was basically just another moe show, but this one had a lot of quality in animation and a dance ending.

This is where I still dont get it, why the fuck is haruhi so popular? the story is interesting indeed, but each time I see haruhi fan, he acts like a zombie retard who just keeps replaying that fucking dance part just to learn it and dance it like a retard on some anime convention.

Oh fuck, apparently, Kyoani accidentally discovered the easy way to make the most popular anime of the year, trow in some Quality animated moe Girls dancing and Money will rain, oh god, thanks to kyoani, the days of Mechas, guns, philosophical plot twists and overall badass are dying.

so I endured the fandom, after haruhi, everything that anime fans are watching these days are shows about moe girls, there are usually about 3 "harem" shows per serious anime. what the hell.

It got even worse this year, when Lucky star was announced, pretty much the worse and most overrated piece of anime shit this year, and you know what? people love it.

It was horrible, the first commercial features a blue haired girl going "UUHHUHHUUHUHUUH" for like 30 seconds, the ansewer?

OMG COMEDY GOLD, GENIOUS, KYOANIMATION IS THE SHIT.

even worse, its the biggest fanboyism I have seen since Final fantasy 7, people Love this show for 2 fucking reasons, Kyoani did it "OMG MAKERS OF HAROOHEE" and a dance opening.

talking about that, the opening is pretty good, one hell of a good one, but anime fans, an opening doesnt make an anime, its just an O-P-E-N-I-N-G.

so when the shit starts, badly drawn schoolgirls talk for 7 minutes about food, 7 FUCKING MINUTES, anime fans prefer to watch 7 MINUTES OF BADLY DRAWN ANIME GIRLS TALKING ABOUT FOOD and say its THE BEST ANIME OF THE SEASON.

BEST ANIME OF THE SEASON? STOP bullshiting me, have you even seen the other shows this season? how can you Retards prefer Lucky star than Gurren lagann, Darker than black, seirei no moribito, seto no hanayome or such?

Gurren Lagann

YES, LUCKY STAR is getting much better ratings than these shows, for 7 MOTHERFUCKING MINUTES OF FOOD TALK.

There is SOMETHING WRONG with this

so, this is my question, WHY ARE YOU TURNING INTO RETARDS?

this is a serious issue, if you anime fans keep praising this Lucky star show, each year we will see less shows like "Darker than black" replaced by kyoanimations new DANCING MOE GIRLS ANIMU, NOW WITH LESS STORY AND 12 MINUTES OF DRINK TALK.

MOE is a good concept when put slightly in my anime, but NOT for being the whole concept of a show, I always preffered having a good story, a good amalgam of it all, nice music, artwork, action sequences and lovable characters, Lucky star is just MOESHIT, it not the kind of show that deserves the praise it gets.

April 26th, 2009 UPDATE:

SEEMS LIKE I WASNT WRONG, K-ON IS ON TOP CHARTS WHILE BASQUASH, SENGOKU BASARA, HATSUKOI AND EDEN OF THE EAST ARE GETTING IGNORED.

THANKS FOR TURNING INTO RETARDS AND FURTHER KEEP POISONING THE GENRE FAGGOTS.

yes, I love anime, I SPECIALLY love shounen anime, in case you dont know, shounen anime is mostly fight-focused anime, like Naruto, One piece or Yuyu hakusho, I like shounen anime so much Im planning on develop my own fight-themed series, there is nothing I find better than someone screaming an attack in middle of a tense situation, like GOMU GOMU RIFLE or ZA WARUDO.

How come I hate bleach then? of all things, why is bleach excluded?

One of the requirements of shounen is to make battles interesting, normal animes like nanoha are just usual explosions and beams, shounen usually makes them more interesting
with concepts like using an eye that can see in a 360 radius (Neji from naruto) a seal that makes anything follow you, including knives (yuyu hakusho) or a Rubber human scretching his body resembling interesting weapons like a Firecraker (One piece). Bleach fails at this, characters usually just make things explode, take Chad for example, he just trows blast punches.

First of all, take a look at the openings, simply wonderful openings, specially for the first and fourth, these openings represent a very stilysh & modern aura, almost like these series tried to be like cowboy bebop or such, the characters appear in urban settings and wearing these modern clothes, its just awesome when you see it first.

What happens when the series actually start? complete and utter boredom, the characters just wear your typical school uniforms, wear white shirts, and avobe all, behave like pretty much other anime that takes place in japan, no style here. the themes, instead of being all like they look in the opening, are just spooky music you would find in yuyu hakusho, the characters are too serious. I still remember watching the first episode like 2 years ago, So I predict these series will soon die for being so damn stereotypical (seriously, it was like watching yuyu hakusho all over again but with different characters, OHH ICHIGO HAS HIDDEN POWERS AND A BIGASS SWORD, THE STORY TAKES PLACE IN NORMAL JAPAN, BOOORING.").

about a year later, I hear bleach is looking pretty good, this was around bleach reaching episode 50, my hears cant believe it, so I decide to give bleach another chance and watch more, the first episode is always stereotypical, right? the same happened to one piece, so I decide to give bleach a chance to develop.

Until episode 13, and the series still seem like pretty much any other anime, its a guy with a soul sword killing hollows, yeah, the typical "other good guys" are introduced, like chad or ishida, so far the only episode I have liked is Ichigo visiting his grave, and some of the hollow fights are well animated, I keep praying for some non-monster villains to appear, so the main characters can finally develop new skills, Ichigo swinging a sword is getting tired.

around episode 16 or such, finally real bad guys appear, Chad and Orihime also seem to be around and shikai is introduced, at this point, I start to get interested in the series, Shikai looks like a pretty good concept! morphing swords can be quite original battlewise! cant wait to see a worthy battle. since the series so far, hasnt bringed a SINGLE good battle moment, all of them have been just crappy hollows getting cut or such.

Here comes the first dissapointment, after like 5 episodes of Ichigo TRAINING (ZZZZ) FINALLY the group of good guys is getting to soul society, supposedly the land of the dead, surprise surprise! the land of the dead if just an ancient-japan themed place, the place is so freaking strange you dont even feel these guys are dead, is the writer of bleach playing with my mind of was just too freaking lazy to make a worthy "world of the dead"? the "cool" style bleach barely had on the first episodes changes completely to just guys with exploding swords in ancient japan, The hell is going on.

after "yawn" 6 or such episodes, the guys FINALLY enter into soul society, after SO MUCH preparation, FINALLY a worthy battle is coming (I hope so, because at this point of episodes, another series have already finished, or Naruto has already fought haku with kiuby, or the kuro arc just took place in one piece).

Generals are introduced, not 3 or 5, but 12 at the same time, this brings me a chill of expectation, Ichigo and friends have to beat these guys? AWESOME.

from episodes (25-40)after a couple of "ahem" INTRODUCTORY battles, like that bald guy or such, the characters are still fighting like they did on the first episodes, BORINGLY, Ichigos shikai is just a different looking sword that he uses the same, Ichigo is TOO damn strong and seems to be able to defeat all his enemies with a single slash just like he did in the first episode, Chad just trows punches and Ishida just trows arrows. these fights arent like one piece or any other shounen for that matter, the heroes just seem to be stronger for no reason and suddenly defeat their without a sweat, there are no hidden sword skills or smart moves, the strongest wins, the end. even worse, the setting is boring as hell, its just some undecorated paths and coat-dressed sword weilders, its like each episode its the same than the last one, the spark of style of the first episodes is dead, oh yeah, generals talk here and there, but no one has fought yet, they just talk talk talk about serious stuff I dont care, I though this was about saving rukia, not what the hell the generals talk about.

Renji appears, just for what? to be defeated in a "serious" Ichigo slash, not amused, Ichigo just powered up again for no reason and defeated renji, the battle wasnt interesting seriously, Ichigo hasnt used his brain in a single battle so far, he just resists attacks and attacks winning, its like watching some guy lv50 defeat lv20 guys.

Im still praying for a battle I CANT predict, Orihime and Chad are wimps that dont know to fight, Chad specially, just trows blast punches, its like DBZ all over again, no brain, just explosions and suddenly you lose, all revolves around power levels, saving rukia is getting boring, oh yeah, and Aizen is dead, the only actual interesting thing I can remember.

Episode 40, FINALLY Ichigo is gonna fight someone you cant defeat with a power up, kempachi, so far the battle is boring and kempachi is TOO freaking powerful, Ichigo talks to his zampakuto and gets a POWERUP for trusting it, I hate ichigo so far, all it takes to him to get stronger is a decison, then suddenly his typical slash we saw since the first episode gets stronger, Kempachi takes out his eyepatch, at this point, I say, FINALLY THE BATTLE IS GOING TO START, just for what? an explosion and the battle ended, oh god, this has got to be the most dissapointing moment in what I have seen so far, Ichigo is the most boring hero I have ever seen in my life, he is just a hothead that happens to be strong, he never really develops interesting skills, and just gets angry in the supposed "comedy" moments, am I watching a joke? its like my fangirl sister thought of this show, everything its so damn predictable I cant believe, even the "dark hollow side" of Ichigo is stereotypical, (AKA Kyubi naruto, AKA Possessed Iori, AKA Dark side in star wars, AKA Ring-posessed Frodo, AKA Evil side in pretty much anything) Ishida and Chad arent helping either, they are too weak and their pasts dont convince me, their battle styles and designs are completely outshadowed by the generals, they are just there to save rukia, and I dont care about them anymore.

Yet another thing Im not liking in bleach, is the fact these random "past storyes" are getting told, they arent really interesting, I barely remember what the hell was rukia doing on soul society, or anything, everything is too "japanese" and serious. Chads past was the most boring so far. this DEFINITELY isnt the bleach of the first episodes, everything is so SLOW and everyone is so POWERFUL, not even in an interesting way, they just have powerful swords. It seems like soul society wont ever end.

I mean, it just took 10 Damn episodes of Arlong arc to make one piece one of the best shows I have ever seen, It only took like 15 episodes of Zabuza arc to make me love naruto, it just took like 5 Episodes of Genkais tournament in yuyu hakusho to hook me up, and so far, Soul society is too damn big and the battles are too damn boring, I have barely seen a shikai worth remembering apart from renjis. yet Im told the best is yet to come, so I STILL give bleach another chance.

Oh shit, bankais are introduced, you GOTTA be shitting me, I havent even seen a worthy shikai battle and Bankais already? even worse, Ichigo needs to train AGAIN, the only thing that keeps me watching this excuse of shounen is The whole aizen mistery.

So far I find a LOT of problems in bleach, first of all, the purpose of winning every battle is for saving rukia, it really gets boring after a while, Its just not enough motivation, most of the heroes lack very much will, they just help Ichigo, almost like zombies. there are no doubts here, you dont really get what they feel like you would in Full metal alchemist, the tears and pure human feelings kind of lack in most battles.

Bankai Ichigo is just a faster Ichigo in black.

Bleachs problem is that they captured rukia, that just felt like an excuse to bring Ichigo to fight, even worse, it would be good if AT LEAST the battles where complex, but they arent, they are just explosions and powerups, techniques or using your brain are prohibited in bleach battles. if THAT doesnt work, liking the characters do, this can usually be done when they show you their past, bleach fails at this too, there isnt a SINGLE tearful past I have seen, just compare how dull Chads past compared to say.. ROCK LEE or CHOPPER.

in Resume, Bleach has boring characters fighting boring battles in boring places.

Analize this, Ichigos bankai is just a faster ichigo, aka Super sayajin mode or Gear second, Ichigo pulled it out around episode 60, and he had not even developed a single Shikai skill worth remembering.
Around the SAME 60 EPISODES, Luffy had already shown us: Gomu pistol, gomu bazooka, Gomu bell, Gomu sledgehammer, Gomu axe, Gomu net, Gomu Spear, among others, and he didnt power up a single time, it took him many experimenting of his battle style with other skills like Gomu rifle, Golden rifle, Gomu storm, gomu balloon, Mizu luffy, Boxing luffy: to finally show us the first sign of power up around episode 270: gear second. the same can be said about every other main character in these 2 series, from this point, which is better battle wise? try to make the same comparison with naruto/bleach.

Just how bad can bleach battles get? well, take the First general (that old fire general) vs the dual sword generals, it wasnt even a battle, they just standed and watched, seriously. go watch it again if you dont believe me.

I STILL dont get why people watch this, If you want Lovable characters with pasts that dont make you sleep, watch one piece, if you want battles that dont make you sleep, watch naruto, if you want a real concept of ghosts and dead, watch Yuyu hakusho or Death note, if you want a stylish series, watch samurai champloo.

Bleach fails for much more other reasons, take for example the whole generals randomness, a character usually is interesting when he crosses paths with the characters you like, in this case it would be the heroes, in bleach, the main characters are so boring that the series NEEDS to forget them here and there and put episodes about the generals talking about serious matterz, so the brainwashed watcher feels something like "ohh, this series is complex, so much stuff is happening!!!"

That is no story, its just a bunch of random shit happening so fast the watcher feels like he is watching something complex, not a single moment is memorable, Its like a formula, put 20 boring characters doing many things so it feels like 1 interesting thing, bleach tries to explain so many characters that each one ends up being uninteresting, and if the damn author of bleach took its time to tell us the past of each character, I would fall asleep. the series would never end in a circle of boredom storyes. I almost forget, these guys are supposed to be dead arent they? HELL I dont care. there are so many damn powerful characters its annoying, its like watching DBZ, everyone is so powerful that no one is, only the one with the ULTIMATE BANKAI is the most one, and you need to train 5 days to reach bankai. duh.

So finally, Soul society ends, around 65, just for fillers to start. way to go! just when an anime cant get worse, that horrible word appears, fillers, not even naruto went to fillers that fast, thats what happens when you make an anime of a series too fast without even confirming if the series are good in the first place. Im NOT wasting more of my time EXPECTING bleach to get better, I WANTED to like bleach, I like shounen anime, but this is just DBZ level.

(In case you are wondering, I read the manga to see if it got better, its pretty much the same boring fights but against hollows and they must save orihime this time, the characters are so damn powerful I wont get surprised if they can destroy planets just like in Dbz not too soon. Hueco mundo is just a desert in case you wondering, Just like I said: Boring battles in boring places with boring characters, with power levels OVER NINE THOUSAAAAND

I still want them to ditch their superpowers and get back to the real world, I miss that lesbian that chased orihime and the lion doll.

at this point you must be thinking "well, battles arent everything" sure, they arent, but by that you are accepting that bleach battles blow like hell, and bleach is a series that revolves around battles, each new story is just a sad excuse to make Ichigo and friends fight and TRAIN for harder battles. whats the point then? is it really worth watching 50 episodes per year just to watch 10 of development and story, and other 40 of battles that suck? with THIS MUCH characters? and fillers when they dont really feel like going on? You want a guy with a Big sword actually killing people? (because no one dies in bleach) watch Berserk.

So far, the ONE AND ONLY thing I respect in bleach is Aizen and Gin, cool bad guys, they look smart and all, TOO BAD it will take Ichigo 23987439027 shitty boring power ups to defeat them in an EXPLOSION just like he did with kempachi or byakuya and that guy from the fillers.

*updated*
Lastly, I receive many replies like OMG ONEPIECE/NARUTO SUX COMPARED TO BLEACH, BLEACH IS MORE SERIOUS, NARUTO IS A BUNCH OF KIDS DOING KIDS STUFF.

If you really watch ANIME to feel more mature, go watch something like Ghost in the shell, since Bleach, Naruto and Piece are ALL aimed for the same audience in japan, ALL shounen is, thats why its called shounen, EVEN Death note, also, you dont really get the concept of maturity in anime if you think Bleach is more serious because they use swords, bleed and "look older", you usually see that in the copypasta bullshit boredom that is INUYASHA (yes, I SAW the 170 episodes, I usually hate series I KNOW well). Anime for "adults" would be stuff like Evangelion or Great teacher onizuka.

Maturity usually comes in storyes that give you "that" deep feeling, like Watching The background story behind skypeia in One piece (lots of themes regarding Religion vs Science, Pointless wars), most storyes in FMA, and Haku/Kimimaro purposes in life, Bleach can also get quite mature in this like they did in the storyes of the parrot/kid and Ichigos mom in the graveyard, so yes, Shounen can be mature, bleach is mature, but not for its designs and "blood", geez I have seen more violent battles in One piece than in bleach, Sanji getting his lungs Fuxx0red by pressure and lack of oxygen in Arlong park or Ussop getting his skull broken in Arabasta anyone? thats different violence than just "omg I got slashed by a sword, blood splurt", but thats not the point, a series can be stupidly Gore, but stupidly boring at the same time, meh.

Also, maturity isnt really important to make something good, Take for example fairly odd parents or Dexters lab, those shows where Hilarious and where obviously targeted to kids around 10.

Perfect example that an Rpg doesnt need "Next-gen" graphics to look cool as hell, these ouigies are just artistically mind blowing.

Finally a Tales worth being called tales, it had been a long time we had a good one since rebirth, though Abyss did a good work, The real hardcore tales are those Hardcore 2D fighters like Eternia, the bad news its not coming to america, meh.. who cares? I can still import it and Learn japanese/Use a Translation FAQ/Ask in forums, Symphonia fans dont know what they are losing.. I hate their excuses, its either "Ps2 sucks", "I dont know Japanese" or "ToS is still better", these guys are SO ADDICTED to freaking Tales of symphonia they just keep finishing for more than 8 times, get to lv255 and beat abyss till their eyes bleed, they think its the best RPG ever, yet, they dont give a DAMN about other tales games apart from symphonia, I just cant freaking understand it, I played Symphonia too, Loved presea and Zelos, got their paths, beat it in on Maniac like 2 times.. whatever, MOVE ON.

(Stahn has a pretty aggresive fighting style, covered in flames created by his swordian Dymlos, one of his attacks resembles a beast, While Leon has a much more perfected style of fine slashes, In the old version, Leon only used his swordian Chaltier, in this one, he also packs a Knife on its other hand, giving him a much more original style than the rest of the cast, We who played ToDj2 know the real reason though.)

But thats not the point.. as some of you guys may remember, Tales of destiny for Ps1 was the most outdated tales ever, and Ironically one of the most populars in japan, its sequel became a best seller, and Phantasia had a crapload of remakes (the lastest is a PsP full-voice one lol) from all the tales, Destiny was the hardest to play for its crappy battle system, but had pretty damn good puzzles, music and originality in its dungeons, not to mention the story had a sting of originality here and there, Oberon corp guys are the best bunch of bad guys I have seen in long time, its amazing the difference between this one and its following in the series: Eternia, which is one of the best ones so far.

Fans who dared to play Ps1 Destiny will orgasm with finally being able to use Stahn or Leon the way they should have, with ougies comparable to the legendary ToD2j or Rebirth ones, or skit-talks to have their favorite characters more charismatic than ever, this is an amazing tales to the series.

(Johnny Kicking ass, "WAAAOOOO" )

Gameplay from the other side, seems like another addicting system, since they added some kind of aerial combo system I have yet to test, and the ENCHATS ARE BACK OH YEAH (enchants are modyfing your special attacks like Demon fang, so you can poison the enemy, regen more sp or cancel it into other attacks), and Barbatos, if anyone remembers, rapes your team If you start to grind on the fields, TAKE THAT GRINDERS LOL.

another nice detail is the fact that the Talking Swordians now get their deserved screens of their human forms, so you get a better idea that these where actual people.

I still cant believe we are getting a remake of this game, I just remembered how I enjoyed all of the game, it had so amazing characters, Mary had such an interesting background.. Leon was so sad... even Johnny is hell interesting when he joins you.. and yet.. its gonna be so damn ignored in america.. this game simply doesnt deserve it...

(Ignetos, Clemente and Atwight talking, All of them, swordians)

( Hope they give a better role to Marian this time... )

(Exploring the Aethersphere was one of the best Rpg experiences Ive ever had, hope they keep the original themes remixed..)'

(My favorite character: Woodrow on the left, his swordian is Ignetos, a wind user, His first ougi on the video, is a cameo of Kyles Souhajin ougi on ToD2j, while his second one, is a remake of his legendary last move in the old Ps1 version, he also seems to have ditched his bow skills and focus on only Wind sword skills to give Chelsea more originality: Pure awesomenes.)
