Okay, time for a mild and unimportant confession.

I'm playing Tales of Rebirth again. That's not the confession. The confession is that I have a crush on Tytree.


??? durrrr

You know, the one I don't like. I still kinda wanna uppercut him. Seriously, if you like her bodacious body just the way it is, then you have to tell her that. Don't be all like, "aw, Hilda, you didn't try hard enough to find a place for yourself! You should really throw yourself at people who hate you more!" So now it's not so much that I wish Tytree would take off his shirt when he preaches, I just wish he would keep his big fat mouth shut in certain (many) situations. I think it's entirely possible that this game just botched up his character and only showed him saying things that I hate.

Tales of Rebirth is, on the whole, much more tolerable than I remember it being. Years later, it's actually extremely distracting. I guess I needed to play TOD2 to gain the proper appreciation.

EDIT: There may soon come Tales of Rebirth spoilers in the comments. Also, what was Tytree like when he was little? Was there anything to make Selena think he's adorable?

All anime have a "...for Japan" caveat in that regard XD;

I imagine it's pretty likely...? There are a lot of random anime games. Actually, I have no idea.

Well, it's entirely possible there is a strict hierarchy of tsundere. In the Haruhi game for PS2 there is a wonderfully elaborate Super Robot Wars parody (yes, I am going somewhere with this) and one of the otaku in the comments on Nicovideo started analyzing the type of explosion and how you could tell this was from Nadesico as opposed to Evangelion. Or maybe it was vice versa. Anyway I have full confidence that someone somewhere has an obsessive list of the requirements for a tsundere, even if I don't know it.

*reads chapter* Thanks for the link! More sites should do that (websunday.net has the first chapter of nearly all currently running manga up, yay) Wow, the main character has some elaborate hair It looks interesting! I kinda like Mekakushi no Kuni for the same reasons (less petty jealousy and random fiancees from nowhere, more honobono)

Wowwwww. Poor Roy. Ed's going to get massacred XD

[moumusu.livejournal.com]

Yeah, but Ed doesn't get massacred because Al is there. No matter how idiotic Al thinks Ed is, he will still rescue him. Maybe just in a humiliating way, though. ...see, unlike you, I'm not going anywhere with that T_T lololol

I'm glad you like it :333 There's a lot of honobono in Mochida's stuff, but she does do the random fiancees and stupid bickering thing, too. What I like is that it's fairly easy to tell which story does what what. Braided country girl with puppies, whose favorite food is custard, who looks great in hippie outfits? I think that would be called trying to make your story as easygoing and fluffy as possible. (Would I be silly if I said I like the hair Mochida Aki draws? See also: お砂糖漬けのミス･ハニー)

I bet there is a list for tsundere. I bet there's more than one, but the people with the lists are so disorganized that we'll never see them...like I need to see that anyway. Oh, wait, maybe I do...no, I don't. It'd be like asking what moe is. (Except I've heard a specific answer to that. On fandom wank.)

[narugami.livejournal.com]

Useful little brother to have around! I like Al.

Incidentally every single episode of Toshoukan Sensou so far has the main character breaking down in tears so I quit watching. The anime version of Allison is also methodically stripping out almost every enjoyable scene from the books (though the dogfight in the last episode was GREAT) so I think I'm officially disillusioned with this season. Bah.

[moumusu.livejournal.com]

I like Al fine, but I always feel like I don't like Al ENOUGH. He's the "nice" one. We don't see him kicking ass, making things explode, and being sexy enough. Also, his posture and gestures in the anime are occasionally exclusively female. He doesn't have Ed's wonderful habit of tearing off his clothes during fights!! :(

Bummer man :( Such potential, too. I will avoid any sweeping statements about how anime sucks Nowadays because that would imply that Ranma 1/2 was actually really good.

Also, hello cute little fella from Summon Night. I am considering buying a DS to play the remake T_T

Okay, this is a really changing the subject, but I was only recently made aware of the fact that Subaru and Kamui are like gay post-apocalyptic vampires in Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle, and...screw you, CLAMP? Is that what I mean to say? Seriously.

[narugami.livejournal.com]

That's okay, this is kinda the spam thread for everything XD That said, I'm running out of stuff to say so maybe I will spam your SN3 post. Even though I didn't actually finish that game OTL

The fact that SNDS has no VA is a major minus though, especially since these games are ALL ABOUT TALKING. So the PS version might be better (unless you have it already?) But awwwww. I picked up my Aya replay yesterday. This game is wonderful! Except for, you know, the GAME parts of it XDDD

They're not only gay post-apocalyptic vampires, they're gay post-apocalyptic vampire TWINS. That is about the point where I became disillusioned with Tsubasa (for other reasons). Now I can't keep track of what is going on anymore.

[moumusu.livejournal.com]

Yes! Please switch to the SN3 post >:3 Or, I'm about to make another "Foam About Vesperia" entry, and you're also welcome there, but it's fun to talk about SN3. YOUR CALL.

Oh my god, no VA? Thank you for telling me this, I basically wouldn't have played SN3 without the voices (Gourry FTW) ^^; I'll try to find a copy of the PS version.

LOL. Are you kidding me? LOL CLAMP, screw you. I WAS RIGHT TO AVOID THIS SERIES.
