I wish Arena Fighter wasn't a dirty word among gamers and fighting game fans.
I'd love one of these games to surprise everyone and gain a community.
Which is to also say I wish one of these games had the appropriate quality and depth to it to do so.
As someone who watched and enjoyed the show, I'd buy this game if it got a western Xone release with and English track.
Which is to say I get to save $60 for other things later.
It's very much in line with LWA's graphical style since it's the same developer, Arcsys being the publisher was a big troll move.About what I expected. Simple arena fighter that's an excuse to try and use Xrd's graphical style in a more 3D environment since that's the aspect it's most struggles (ust look at most story mode cutscenes for Guilty Gear). Hope we get some confirmation on branching story paths.
It will probably be an original plot.
Gundam, in Japan. Virtual On once upon a time. ARMS still has a niche comp scene and sold well enough.I'd love one of these games to surprise everyone and gain a community.

We just got 3 2d fighters recently
Their work on the LWA is probably why ASW is publishing it. They tried their best on a way smaller budget and engine so might as well get the guys that actually developed the style to help. I will say though that the fanservice on the LWA game was amazing so I hope we get something to that level here as well.It's very much in line with LWA's graphical style since it's the same developer, Arcsys being the publisher was a big troll move.
Hopefully they learned something and the game part of this video game is good this time.
Hey it's what sells to the kiddos
Source on the gameplay bit? Now that's interesting.They said it's a 3D fighter rather than an arena fighter, and that it's an alternative story with Satsuki as the main character.
Not a good idea with this particular dev.
Youtube version, slightly better quality.
Considering it's meant to be an alternative telling of the story, I wonder how much they'll retell/cover. If it means maybe changing the 2nd half which was easily the weakest part of the series, I'd be up for it.
Also damn it, this looks rather good, but then I remember it's not ASW developing it, but the team who made that Little Witch Academia title, which I've heard.....not good things.
That was all it had sadly, the game part was terrible and I truly hope they are getting some assistance from arcsys because they themselves don't inspire much confidence tbh.Their work on the LWA is probably why ASW is publishing it.

Which scene? It's been a while since I've watched it...2nd half wasn't just weak, it had scenes that straight up ruined the show beyond repair and you probably know exactly what I mean.
Teenagers are kids
You mean how the ending carried on the time-honoured anime tradition of being shitty-Evangelion?2nd half wasn't just weak, it had scenes that straight up ruined the show beyond repair and you probably know exactly what I mean.

Because fuck, can we stop doing that guys? I get it, Evangelion was a big deal and inspired all of us, but like... Stop trying to pull off a ridiculously specific ending that has only ever really worked there.
I honestly remember very little of the second half outside of the ending, and thinking they violently jumped the shark around... Episode ~19?I don't know how you're forgetting those fucked up scenes with the mother and daughter. I can only imagine how awkward that show would have been to watch in any kind of anime club/group watch.
