  • Also, random question - would I be safe to watch Boruto? That might seem like a silly question, and it probably is, but I already know Naruto gets what he wants and who marries whom, so would I be able to pick it up and watch it week-by-week without getting a headache? Trying to motivate myself to watch more Naruto and it's not working at the moment.

    As long as you don't mind not knowing a majority of the adult characters, not understanding references to past events and generally being weird.

    If you did REALLY want to start the new one early I'd suggest at least watching the next arc from the original. Rest of the Konoha characters are introduced and maybe you'll get into it.

    ...that'd be a no, then. Well, on the plus side, by the time I actually get to Boruto at the speed I'm going it'll be 100+ episodes.

    I'm kinda interested in Orochimaru (I like this ripoff Toccata theme) and Gaara. I'll try and watch more tomorrow or Sunday. If there was a Dynasty Warriors Naruto game, this would be so much easier...

    Ultimate Ninja Storm. Dust off that PS3 'n burn through the se-

    Oh wait, they're making a compilation for the PS4...Yeh, get that. That was the game that got me back into the series.

    Isn't that more of a one-on-one arcade style fighting title? I absolutely loathe games like that...well, unless they're done in Dissidia's style anyway, but even then it's hit-or-miss...

    I saw the news about the compilation, and the Boruto...football game, I think it was? I'm kinda annoyed there isn't as much variety to Naruto titles as there is to Dragonball ones; it could easily lend itself to an Action RPG or any other kind of title...

    Perhaps films would give it that focus? I generally don't like clipshow movies, but I don't like what has been cut out of them usually. Cutting things out of G Reco might make it more enjoyable...I'd be more willing to give movies a try over a second season, at least. Which I guess sounds weird, but I normally drop shows I don't like after a few episodes and I DID watch G Reco to the bitter end. So it did better than some.

    ...that said, no force on earth will get me to watch the Eureka Seven movies they have planned. That series is unsalvageable.

    UNS is pretty standout in that its main hook is, ironically, its QTEs. Hell, I'd say that and Asura's Wrath (by the same developer, and likely the same director) are probably the only games where you'll ever really see anybody stick up for them.

    And the fighting's pretty simple, which to some extent can be its bane but it does make it pretty easy to get into. I'd at least recommend giving it a look since it probably isn't like anything else you've played- and I only say that because I don't really think there are any other Fighting games that can boast what it does, for better or for worse.

    Also, it uh...actually does turn into Warriors at some points. Always unexpectedly, too.

    Ah yes...I remember when QTEs were really being pushed in console video games, coming off the back of GoW's success with them. Honestly I never minded it, save for when they become a bloody-minded button mash, or things involving spinning control sticks.

    Inputting commands can actually be pretty satisfying, and as for simplistic fighting...the simpler the better, honestly. Is the series comparable to Dragonball Xenoverse? I picked that up for PS4 ages ago because reasons and I haven't played it yet.

    I'll think about picking up the collection if/when it gets remastered over here, though...not shelling out and hunting around for PS3 titles if they're just going to come to PS4 anyway. I can wait. The less like it is an arcade-style fighting game, the better though. Horrible genre. Also Asura's Wrath was amazing.

    See













    UNS is an anime

    Yeah, as much of an anime as Paaarusonaah is. In fact, Paaarusonah is even moar anime than UNS could ever be.

    So does that mean I can talk about Persona in both the anime boards and the video gaming boards?????? :DDDDD

    On a related note (somewhat), I finished the 4 Persona 3 movies earlier last week. Were so good <3

    Why would you want to discuss the Persona games anyway. Although the anime of 4 was better than the game, I found...I could actually watch the anime without wanting to claw my eyes out. Mostly.

    I was thinking about watching the Persona 3 movies somewhen. I'm wondering if it's just the fourth game that is terrible and if the rest of it might not be so bad. Even if I couldn't get into 5 and put it down pretty quick

    So I've been thinking of actually starting to watch anime. Hmm... I don't suppose there's a good list of things to watch that are also current?

    Got to say, I've been thinking I'm probably missing out on a lot of things.

    What genres and themes do you like in other mediums? I'll give you an anime pro approved list of shows to get you started.

  • Would you look at that, dero lives.
    For how long, though? That is the question haha

    Maybe it just isn't for you. I loved both 3 and 4. Pretty much two of the best games I've ever played. And I'm sure 5 will be just as great if not better, too. The games are better than the anime any day for me btw. Like I said, different tastes probably :p

    I'm not starting too many new series this time so I can't help with picking up currently ongoing ones I'm afraid. @twiggy

    Just looking for something fun.

    That, and lately Twitter feed and avatars of things from Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid is bothering me big time like I'm missing out on something.
