@EddieKal mmmm Engrish songs :3

makes me think of Naruto ED 1 youtube.com/watch?v=Oyhpwyrq1N0

or "Aesthetic" from Team Medical Dragon youtube.com/watch?v=pg-s_n-v0Dk

or "Dark Oblivion", one of Maria's songs from Symphogear G vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/senkizesshousymphogear/images/c/cf/…

@ahiijny so far most of the Naruto EDs i have skipped

if the ED is good then i'll see the "Next Episode" reel but in Naruto's cast, most have been crap

gasp skipping EDs? heresy!

just kidding ;-)

I remember some of the early Naruto EDs very well though, because I watched these episodes with my younger siblings when we were younger (these were the only ones that were available on DVD in the library at the time)

Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood Ending 4

FMAB's 4th one is ok

►

we also put some of those Naruto OPs/EDs on our road trip tapes back then

also, I really need to get around to watching fmab one of these days!

I hear it's good

3:13 AM

@ahiijny it is. while i enjoyed the original Brotherhood is much better. though would suggest watching the Original for the Intro Arc and just accept that one character is missing when Ed and Al are in Youswell

and also ignore the Original's Liore episodes (first 2) since Brotherhood is more faithful in regards to that

ye, these are the things I've picked up about fmab through cultural osmosis at some point:
- there are two versions, fma and fmab, fmab came later and it's better overall for the most part but fma is better with the introduction or something?
- main character is blonde guy and his brother who's a suit of armour for some reason
- something something equivalent exchange something something first law of alchemy
- that scene where the two guys with the muscles become bffs because of their muscles
- there's a timeskip at some point

and that's about it

I don't know anything else

Naruto Opening 1 (2) - If you believe it!

@ahiijny is was one of my earlier Naruto EDs

IS THIS THE DUB VERSION

ls;kdfjljdslfj;sadjflsda;fjls;adfj

@ahiijny more so the 4Kids Dubs

which oddly enough the 1st one while i did see it, didn't have the part where Naruto drops his lunch

it'a almost as if someone went "oh shit this is bad, lets just fix that part up and no one will notice"

> that scene where the two guys with the muscles become bffs because of their muscles

i actually don't remember if this happened in Brotherhood. does happen in the original for sure

have to admit, most beautiful part in a series with zero Yuri

3:28 AM

@ahiijny This song from Iryu could be my next work jam. :)

Rock The Dragon (English Original Opening HD)

one of the better Original Dub OPs

►

@ahiijny I've only seen FMA. Haven't gotten around to FMAB yet. So I shall stop reading this list

I've seen neither FMA nor FMAB, so I have literally no context for the few snippets of spoilers I've picked up here and there :P

@EddieKal actually that list mostly applies to FMA

only thing is the first one which is less a spoiler and more a warning

3:40 AM

Oh okay safe.

especially since if you've seen the original and saw the "Ed Ward Big Brother" part, you know that you're going to see it again

because why the fuck not? lets make those weebs suffer

lol

4 hours later…

@Memor-X convention. One of the usual figurine company conventions where they present the new figures that will be sold in the next months.

It is an official product. Out of curiosity I did a little search - the game site mentions it too.

I also saw it being sold on AliExpres, but that could be a botleg version.

That said it is weird.

A gatcha JRPG game. On Consoles&PC. That managed to go viral. And now they are selling actual official merchandise and character figurines.

Also, the one above probably won't be the last.

Apparently, they did a contest some time ago.

I expect that the figurine in the merchandise set will be made available in some form in the future.

Furthermore, if they are smart they could so something very similar to the amiibo concept Nintendo did, something I think few games did before.

Buy the figurine for a character, get the character for free in game.

It is not like they wouldn't be getting money that way.... but I think people WOULD buy a figurine of their favorite character, especially if that means getting the character for free.

Basically, Gatcha version of Skylanders, but with a simple "redeem code" in the box

8:23 AM

@Derpy not all that strange. it was the same with Kantai Collection and Azur Lane

@Memor-X Sure, but I think it started far later along the line?

@Derpy don't think so

@Derpy except the redeem code will have an expiry

@Memor-X well, still better than nothing.

I don't expect to see a gatcha with blind box figurines and NFC anytime soon.

i got a couple of Love Live: School Idol Festival S Rank Cards in my Limited Editions of Season 1, 2 and the Movie which could be redeemed for the same characters in the mobile game. i got them well after the expiry and if i did care for gacha games i would have been annoyed by that
