Quoting Spirit of Jazz instead of me like a coward. Heromanz is a chickenshit heel, everyone.
No, but Days of Ruin was the worst imo and probably killed the series.
It's a consequence of people's online identities being built around brands. Their team winning or being better is more important than just enjoying the product.
All Advanced Wars games are for Nintendo kiddies who can't deal with big brained PC RTS micro.
At least Pentagon works a crowd. volador doesn't even do that most nights
They should have made a spin-off based on the anime with the girls transforming into vehicles.
I meant no offence friend, it was a goof based on my response to the first quote.
I've always liked AZM. I like Starlight more so our discussions have always been relative, but I like AZM.
I know, I'm kidding too friend, I would never unfollow you!
Fire Emblem you value each comrade and fight alongside them against oppressive regimes
Advance Wars you accumulate as many men as possible and send them out until they perish from your comfy HQ in your bid for world map conquest
So basically Advance Wars is the Vince McMahon simulator, my logic is infallible.

It's only the title screen so far, she may not have gotten far enough to dislike it yet.
I could see Naito being the only one to defeat Moxley
Moxley wins the G1 and then loses the briefcase
Really he's the perfect guy to have be the first to lose the briefcase
Really though Dark Conflict/Days of Ruin was neat, honestly my fave of the Wars games from a gameplay standpoint.
Just to highlight the NERD factor of Asuka, the japanese version of that game initially didn't release in Japan, not until 2013 where it was an exclusive club Nintendo option for a 3DS download a whole five years after its western release, basically it's niche as heck.
Asuka must be one of the dozens of japanese players with a copy.

I feel like they should save that scenario for when Baron Corbin quits WWE
Baron would go to DDT and become: Duke Corgi. Dictator of the Corgi Empire
Kenta vs. Evil was damn good. Loved Kenta's strikes and Evil's power and determination. G129 day 7.
This tournament is so goooood. First time I'm actually trying to keep up with it.

I know. I haven't caught up past day 3. I have to get on this ASAP or I'll just give up due to how much there is.I am three days behind on G1. The mountain is growing.
Joshi fans largely have the same reaction too. It's perplexing but fans are gonna be fans. I'll be happy for the day when people move on from using their dislike of New Japan as some measuring stick for enlightenment.
The extended counter sequences are a feast/famine thing. They either look incredible or they look labored and arbitrary. It's the one trend of this year's G1 that I'm not a fan of. Some guys just aren't fluid enough to make it work.
I am however glad they've largely moved on from their over-reliance of using opponents' finishers. That was way too prevalent last year.
Asuka has had a very bad 24 hours. First her car apparently broke down. Then she found out her credit card was fraudulently used, and her flight was delayed by 9 hours because Delta.
G129 day 7
Ibushi vs. Sanada was good fun. They started off playing to the crowd and trying to one up each other with their skills and reversals, but ended up just going hard until things broke down and it became about winning. 4.25/5.

Fixed this for you. No need to thank me.
Being sporadically overwhelmed with content is what made me back off New Japan last year when I dipped in. More so, when the feedback I got is that New Japan is best when the volume of material is overwhelming. I am more than three days behind right now and see no path forward unless I either just spend a day doing nothing but catching up or picking and choosing matches.

No idea what to expect from this show, lol. Half of the people booked don't have a Cagematch profile. Don't think i'll be able to catch it live unfortunately
So stupid. Why during the damn G1 of all times. Between this and Charlton there are some dumb people in Japan making odd decisions.Blame NJPW's label for no more "Elevated" for Will Ospreay:

Sounds like NJPW's music crew is jealous they can't make music that is ELEVATED

Y'know, Will's new theme has been growing on me, but...why do this at all?
NJPW has more than enough content to overwhelm, on the low. My trick is to reduce things to only the most important shows. Cut the Road to shows, cut the B-Show PPVs. Even then, being smacked with NJC, BOSJ, G1, and pretending I care about their tag series in the Winter can still be a lot.
Yeah, I cancelled last time because of a sense of being overwhelmed. There is no telling when a tag match is going to be a nothing tag match or have storytelling associated with it. Heck, story even unfolds in post show media scrums. If you don't watch absolutely everything you get lost. When I watched Wrestle Kingdom this year I enjoyed most of the matches and was able to follow some of the major stories but there was stuff where the emotional quality of it fell flat for me because I hadn't seen enough. I got back in after Mania weekend because of the MSG show where all the New Japan stuff was great and ROH did ROH things. And three months later I've already drowned in content at least twice. I managed with BOSJ but it took work and I ended up not watching other wrestling I wanted to see to accommodate it and here I am, a month a change later, drowning in G1. New Japan is great but it is so fucking much.
Me being the filthy casual of wrasslin' that I am, has only just watched my first match of this G1
But I'm very happy with my pick, it was always gonna be Ishii to kick things off for me so i figured him vs Mox might be my jam, it was very much my jam.
Dem dueling chairs, those table teases paid off in the best way, the Stocky Stronghold™ is a treasure.

And then you gave her shit for liking a great video game, shame on you Darkstar
