Might want to tell this one to a the "Shonen Jump Weekly" crowd that has a problem with anime "over-sexualizing women" for the "male fantasy" and what not.

The biggest problem is not the outfit so much as it is who is wearing it...basically a 12-13 year old girl. After the Ruroni Kenshin writer was caught with child pornography and such it has become an issue.

Again, who is wearing it shouldn't matter if you choose not to sexualize it imo.

 

Also, the author was caught with Child Porn. Loli is not CP and has a huge following in both America and Japan. Even if you disagree with what it depicts, it's art and nothing more.

An out of control man needs a strong woman to control him.
And even a violent woman will become soft and tender to the man she love.

That's pretty good. Don't waste your time on Fates though if you can't read Japanese. The translation was absolutely terrible.

I've already beaten Conquest. Hell, I got Awakening because the idea of paying for the alternative paths disgusted me, especially considering the size of the download. Here's my thoughts on it.

 

  • Pros
  • I like a number of the characters
  • Think the idea of the story is sound
  • Generally loved the story after Lillith's death 
  • Some fun classes
  • How the gameplay illustrated Nohr's issues. You lack the ability to grind for money and EXP, so each move counts. Meanwhile, the supposedly "peace loving" Hoshido has access to near infinite resources by starting fights for profit. The gameplay of Birthright empathizes them being hypocritical, whereas Conquest gives this feeling of desperation and doing whatever is necessary to survive.
  • I gave my MC an eyepatch and called him Guts
  • The maps feel challenging, but not in the same BS ways the final maps in Echoes were.

 

 

  • Cons
  • Story really needed more refinement, dragged in the middle
  • Party feels too bloated, and lack of grinding opportunities makes it so there WILL be deadweight characters
  • Getting rid of weapon durability and replacing it with stronger weapons having serious drawbacks. Sorry, I'd prefer to just keep upgrading my iron weapons into game breakers.
  • There being no variance to the endings of the girls if they marry. I really like how every marriage in Awakening brings it's own little quirks to what they do after the war.
  • Reclassing doesn't reset levels. Okay, this is more a neutral thing since it creates challenge, but it also means there's less room to play with when it comes to experimenting with characters.
  • Oh god the children. I like them as characters, but the whole deeprealms thing is beyond stupid.
  • Mixing spells, bows and shuriken into the weapons triangle. i could never remember which one corresponded to the regular triangle. In the GBA title, having a second triangle for magic worked for me.
  • The skinship minigame, ditto stripping characters to their underwear just feels creepy
  • The knowledge that Elise was 9ish in the Japanese release, and could end up a Grandmother by the end of the game. Some things man were not meant to know.
  • Talking about how this is all based on your decision on which side to join, which is rendered pointless. You made your decision when you bought the game (and in my case, Conquest was the only version available so I had no choice other than to not play). The game then has the audacity to ask you to pick when you freaking can't, and to get the other options you have to pay real world cash. Especially for Revelations that's considered the TRUE path.
  • HOW FREAKING EXPENSIVE THE DOWNLOADS FOR THE OTHER PATHS ARE CONSIDERING THE SIZE OF THE DOWNLOADS.
  • Grinding for EXP in the DLC is tedious (I really wanted to use Mozu).
  • Really felt the ending should have been more bittersweet.

So, there's some good ideas and challenge in the game but it gets held back by bloat, poorly executed ideas, and just being creepy, Playing the other paths is a low priority for me right now, since I want to do two playthroughs of Awakening (one being maleMC/Lucina and the other FemaleMC/Chrom, since the former makes sense to me for Morgan while the latter feels like it would be a better story) followed by The Sacred Stones (since I didn't have it back when I had a GBA), Geneology of the Holy War and finally getting around to the post-game stuff in Echoes. All of that before I even want to touch Birthright and Revelations.

I got recommend this old 2017 video. I like to add that : This is before the episode where they change boruto not to cheat in chunnin exam.

Do you guys think this guy is accurate ?

I personally stop watching when he said "FORGET EVERYTHING YOU KNOW ABOUT NARUTO". I admit that i can no longer see boruto and all of it's related stuff in neutral way , whenever i saw him my mind instantly search for every weakness and faulty ... i constantly try my best to find a reason to keep hating it (i know that's not healthy and i myself concern about that way of thinking) i'm definitely not evil person i just really hate it , because they bury chapter 3 bench scene as if nothing happen and so i will eternally forever until my last breath hate this franchise.

 

So i ask those of you who still able to see this from different perspective than hate. I just somehow want to know if i'm wrong for hating this , it doesn't make difference though whether i'm wrong by hating it or not , i just want to know where i'm standing. I hate to admit this but ... there is a ring of truth of what this guy saying , i hate the ending and now i hate everything after it and his son. Is it the same like , the parents murder your love one , naturally you hate them , and they have a child , and you hate their child , even though you know their child did nothing wrong , you hate the innocent child because of the parents sin?

I got both it and kh3, beat kh3 already, now I'm just waiting for friday to play jump force. also apparently its kinda like infinity war but for jump, they got their own infinity stone things called umbras cubes that they're fighting over, custom character has one inside em giving em the power to copy the heroes' moves, even luffy's. at the end of the game I'd say they're as strong as xenoverse 2 base form cac, the one that beat ultra instinct goku. just unlike the xenoverse 2 cac, can't transform.

Is it the same like , the parents murder your love one , naturally you hate them , and they have a child , and you hate their child , even though you know their child did nothing wrong , you hate the innocent child because of the parents sin?

The problem is that, as a sequel series that was shoved in our face as "Naruto" was ending, you really CAN'T forget everything you know about Naruto because "Boruto" was clearly meant to literally be built off of "Naruto's" back in terms of its own narrative, not just because of being in the same general universe. You can't really watch it without knowing what happened before, especially since they have used stuff that was only ever really talked about in the previous series like the Rinnegan and such (even the movie, IIRC, doesn't even really explain much, which leads me to believe that the movie, and by extension, the sequel itself, assumes you're already a fan who knows at least the basics of it).

But even if you try to ignore the ending and look at "Boruto" by itself, Boruto the character himself quickly shows himself to a bratty, unlikable, and hypocritical character and the fact that he has no real good reason for doing so doesn't help. At least from my experience, at his age, a kid whose father works a lot would not hate him so much, but would actually, much like Naruto did as a kid with other people, be trying to get his attention, trying to get him to come home and such, otherwise try to be around him. If Boruto were in his mid-teens, then sure, I could probably understand, but only 10-12 or so? The hypocrisy coming from how he keeps saying he hates being seen as "the Hokage's son" and "young master" and such. If he had simply stopped there and actually tried to work to establish himself apart from his dad, like Itachi did from the rest of the Uchiha Clan, then perhaps impressions would have changed, but instead, he continued to spout such things while simultaneously taking advantage of the privileges that come with being the Hokage's son.

I don't hate Boruto (just) because of "Naruto's" ending, but because Boruto himself killed any likability he might have had, and everything else built up around him is just not really interesting. I'm not given any good reason to root for him or most of the others and to keep any close watch besides "they're the main characters", and even if Boruto and others were to become better people down the line, it clearly did not establish enough reason for us to experience that journey alongside them; they pushed us away from doing so at the beginning.

Apparently Foreverworld is having some form of mental breakdown. From what I hear, he is going around demanding people have sex with him.

 

Just for the record; no, I'm not looking into anymore detail beyond that. The two times I had listened to one of his videos has made is enough. I don't need to find a video or images of him asking for sex.

Which I've told you - time and time again - is dangerous! There will never be consensus, son, among those you have helped to ascend. They will all differ in their views of what it means to be free. The peace you so desperately seek does not exist.
 
These men are united now by a common cause. But when this battle is finished they will fall to fighting amongst themselves about how best to ensure control. In time it will lead to war. You will see.

Jump Force review by IGN :

 

 

It got 6.3 = okay review.

It got frame rate issue during cutscene and cutscene can't be skip.

Repetitive combat system.

Lifeless character.

Bland story campaign.

Let's not go anymore further, please. I rather not talk about any people who into the rival ships but have any current issues, especially that has too much private information.

Not to mention how they're not even committing to the story, with the changes made from the original version of the movie by the anime. So, why should we follow this story if they're going to rewrite what was already written (...like Naruto was towards the end)?
