Oh my!~ Perhaps that is why Ako thinks Hinako, er... has "curves like damn". Yes, that is an actual line from the game, and no, I am not making that up. Also, this is the girl: The one who actually says the puns is Yuzu, one of the three main protags.

Banned because

I don't know why it's called that. XD

I should maybe start my own version of Thirsty Thirty Puns. xD Context: Ako, a.k.a. Miss Not-Pictured. Hmm, okay! That's fair! True! --- Unironically one of my favorite final battle themes, even if it doesn't sound like one. Just... the atmosphere... and the story... and what happens before and after it... and everything, I just... I have nothing but praise for it.

XD

Aww... Ayup, he does! And while it is easily recognizable, I think he plays them both pretty well.

Telling lies, lies, LIES! in member title.

Don't you mean a "Kylier"? xD ... I'll see myself out.

Oh god. I will say this: his voice actor is great. In fact, I picture him voicing Miles Edgeworth. It would fit perfectly.

You do know you just gave me a reason to do another playthrough, right? xD Don't recall any surprise BS in NoA or BR, so... nope. xD Indeed! This. A whole lot of this. This goes for any and all RPGs. The absolute baseline if one of them can keep my interest is how much I like the characters that are presented to me. You may recall me quitting Mary Skelter 2 after about 20 minutes of playing it, even though I absolutely adore that style of gameplay. I just could not stand the protagonist of that game. Tales of Graces is marred by its subpar cast compared to other Tales games (in my opinion), and for FE8, I genuinely like two, maybe three characters, which is why that game isn't exactly on my list of "I want to replay it", either. This was Blue Reflection for me. I wasn't too fond of the magical girl genre, but this game won me over so much that I now call it one of my absolute favorites. Easy: be me. XD Actually, don't. 'twas a joke! And I am reminded of a word my grandmother taught me: "Pannemann", which basically describes someone who is prone to accidents and generally very clumsy. Which is also why the name made me chuckle whenever i saw it.

Banned because I prefer Lucia. Also, this is true.

"CHEEEEESE!"

Okay, so I have heard about having your favorite restaurant in arm's reach, but this is just silly.

No worries! But yeah, she's one of the very few characters in that game I don't want to strangulate every time they show up. I wouldn't dislike Fates so much if over half of the characters and pretty much all the characters that the story focuses on weren't so obnoxious to me. I do think Birthright is actually fun, gameplay-wise, and the story is just your bog-standard FE. It's just the characters that drag it down for me to the point where I can't stand playing it. I think I already talked to Shrimpy about this a while ago, but I believe that if Conquest had more characters that appealed to me, I wouldn't have hated playing it quite so much as I did. Granted, I still would have gotten frustrated at every map past chapter 17, and it probably wouldn't have become my favorite FE anytime soon, but it probably wouldn't have been to such a degree that made me almost go "I never want to play Fire Emblem again". Yup, that I do! My current run is a for fun run, where I just play around with different stuff. Hanneman with bows was one of those. I had the materials to forge a Magic Bow, one of Hanneman's strengths is bows, so I figured why the heck not? Of course!

> me with Mozu in Fates But yeah, I like Hanneman's character. I tend to rarely, if ever, recruit people from different houses, but I tend to make an exception for the Church people like Hanneman. So far, he has not let me down once. He's destined to do a pretty good job as a Magic Bow-wielding Dark Knight, once I get him there. And I'll try having him kill the final boss, promise! Thanks! ^^

Already am! Dude is one of my main sources of magic damage, because the Blue Lions lack that somewhat. I know, right? When I first saw Three Houses, and what it was about, I was like "this is literally Dynasty Warriors." And after playing it, I'm even more like "this is literally Dynasty Warriors". xD I think the devs even confirmed this, but I'm not too sure. Even if they didn't, the similarities are just too uncanny to be mere coincidences. With the game being made by Koei Tecmo, main producer of Dynasty Warriors, and the Romance of the Three Kingdoms strategy games, it becomes even more glaring. You know what? I think I will! It is my favorite game, after all! And there is still a challenge run I want to attempt.

Friggin' hell, now I feel like playing this again. xD

Well, I wanna at least finish that playthrough. xD To be more accurate, Gust made Nights of Azure, Koei Tecmo is the publisher for Gust's games. But yeah, it wouldn't surprise me if they said "screw it, let's take some elements from our own library and throw them in here". I mean... Three Houses' baseline, with the three nations, one led by an ambitious conqueror, one third wheel neutral, one valuing justice and stuff (where the leader goes nuts after a while) is basically Romance of the Three Kingdoms/Dynasty Warriors, one of Koei's "main" franchises. Which is in turn based on real history.

Banned because I am a villain. Mwahaha!

Good morning, everyone!~ As some of you might recall, I've been replaying some Three Houses lately, and I reached the timeskip. More specifically, the cutscene that plays right at the end of chapter 12 on the Blue Lion, Church, and Golden Deer routes. I made a screenshot to check something, and... remember when I replayed Nights of Azure and made a certain joke? Well.... (spoilers, just in case, for anyone who has not played Three Houses yet): And considering a certain someone's backstory on top of that... What else is left to say but Gust did it first? With that, music post for today: my favorite boss battle in a video game! Not theme, just battle. The title describes perfectly what I think about this particular boss fight.

Bonus music post.

I'm not buying anything.

Today's music post: Ripping your own face off. Epically. One of the best themes to come out of a video game for me. It definitely perfectly captures the spirit of "okay, now the enemy is screwed. Royally!" the best out of any of the themes across the series. And possibly across all games. I still get goosebumps remembering Arsène's quote. Vow to me. I am thou, thou art I. Thou who art willing to perform all sacrilegous acts for thine own justice! Call upon my name, and release thy rage! Show the strength of thy will to ascertain all on thine own, though thou be chained to Hell itself! I gotta say, as much as P3's story was overall better, P5 still wins as my favorite Persona game. The gameplay, the music, the dungeons... it's just an overall great game! Also, Persona 3 has rap in it. That alone disqualifies it from being my favorite in the music department.
