Blazblue - Tsubaki was my instant main the moment I saw Continuum Shift. And she goes psycho.
Xrd Sign - Elphelt. No one really knows what happens to her, but yeah. Worst luck in the game.
Persona 4 - My almost four for four, I almost picked Labrys, who eventually gets a good ending. I mained Yuu in P4U.

Rose doesn't  really die, though. Her endings don't go well, but she usually ends up fine. Her endings in SFIV were sour, but watching them with Guy's ending makes it better.

But I do agree that Tsubaki goes apesh*t and it doesn't end well for her in CS.

Play Girlfriend Beta makes me feel like I'm wasting my time on something I don't need to do, but I love it.

Oh, wow. Glad I'm not the only one to notice this! I was looking on AmiAmi and CDJapan and the exchange rates have been really nice lately.
Speaking of CDJapan, I honestly wish more Japanese anime releases came with English subtitles. Even if the total price of all volumes is extremely high, it'll probably be less exhausting since volumes are released every other month or so. Plus, I just like the look and feel of better packaging than the standard blue cases lol.

... Eh, maybe I'm remembering things wrong, but it's like I go through Arcade mode just to do it, and I get rewarded with the game telling me I didn't actually win, and usually that I got my doors kicked in while I was at it. It only took like five or six appearances for her to get a good ending of any kind. I was surprised nothing bad happened to her at the end of Ultra.

But meh. I kinda notice in fighting games that even though I really like being an infighter, I tend to abuse pokes if I have them, and that's probably 'cause of Rose. Heck, when I tried picking up Gouken, I was poking a lot with him too - I was playing him the same way I played Rose. It probably helps that the fighting game friend I have mainly plays grapplers. Infighting, you need to know frames and matchups to do any good, so the learning curve is a little steep.

Me with otome games. I have no idea why I play them because it's not like I even want a boyfriend, let alone a fake one, and let alone a fake one that SPRINGS SURPRISE DETAILED SEX ON YOU FOR NO REASON LIKE EXCUSE ME NO, THIS GAME IS RATED 12+ WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO TWELVE-YEAR-OLDS *rant end for now*.
I'm just so intrigued by the prospect of choices affecting story and all that, I guess.


--- Quote from: Naryoril on May 13, 2015, 08:46:57 am ---I probably will, but i don't really feel confident, although i have been practicing Aoi Tori for quite a while now. But if i really want to make a serious recording, i'd want to do it with a backing track, which makes things much harder (your tempo really needs to be correct, which isn't all that important if you are just playing for yourself). Years ago, before i made a break with playing ocarina because learning japanese (kanji in particular) took a huge junk of my free time, i also practiced relations, i don't think it should be all that hard to get into that one again. I also want to practice yakusoku.

On that note: does anyone have an off vocals version of Aoi Tori, relations or Yakusoku?

In the meantime you can take a look at this piano/ocarina duet cover of yakusoku: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rvwTgWcaVNg

As for my own recordings that have nothing to do with im@s, i have 2 i can offer, but i made them more to fiddle around a bit with reverb and i made a mistakes in both of them and they don't have backing tracks:
Cosmo Canyon from FFVII, played on a Noble Alto F
Fields of Athenry an Irish ballad, played on a Rotter ZFan Alto C.

Those still sound pretty good! Maybe I'm just easily impressed, but I liked them.
I do look forward to hearing you perform iM@S one day.

As for off-vocals, you can usually find them on Nico Nico Douga. I'd give links, but...NND is blocked on my laptop. Just like literally EVERYTHING ELSE. I'm surprised my mom hasn't found this place yet. That'll be a sad day.
You can even go onto YouTube, look for people who have covered the song you want, and check their description. Sometimes, these people give a link to the off-vocal they used to cover the song.

--- End quote ---

Honestly, I had no idea what was going on in DOA:D either. It was my very first 3DS fighting game, and I was excited by the prospect of 3D, but the whole thing was kind of "what?" throughout.
I wish Tekken 3D had a story mode. It has a movie, but that's not the same at all.
