Kindof want to see this from a literary sense. Always was OK with the "MC who cannot lose a fight" proposition. I remember Samurai Champloo where it's expected they can destroy any mook, but also remember someone hating it because they can't lose. Despite there being no tension I believe if the story creates tension in other ways it's good. The only series I remember doing fights well was Katanagatari.

I don't understand the controversy. Fanart is fanart and it isn't like she's the head of the netflix adaptation.

The first DVD has a theme song remix and the prerequisite manga video trailer reel. It's a shame they didn't get Capcom to help them out with cooler special features, but it's not bad anime-wise.

Hm, that's something, I guess. Does it sound good?

I think it's definitely a good anime, maybe not groundbreaking but it's really well paced and has very fun characters. It's a solid watch, especially considering it's based on a video game. They could have easily just made the whole thing a generic tournament or something, but instead it feels like an adventure.

I'm also a sucker for main characters being in prison. G Gundam had a badass prison episode too.

Inuyashiki, of fucking course it's 11 episodes. All masterpieces are 11 episodes (Zankyou no Terror, Tatami Galaxy, this anime, that flower anime). Fucking watch the first episode and if you don't feel the need to marathon the whole thing you don't have taste.

Nigga wrote “Me~teru no Kimochi” and you’re saying “Inuyashiki” is a masterpiece?

I don't remember it, so it's not too much of a change from the instrumental intro. I do recall the Japanese version being different. That reminds me of other fighting game anime that had different music. Tekken: The Motion Picture and the Street Fighter II movie both had alternative rock bands on the English soundtrack. The SF II V ending was great since it even gave you an epilogue! Not too many shows do that. This could definitely get a remaster just like the Fatal Fury OVAs and Movie recently did.

Speaking of interesting soundtracks, Tekken Tag Team has a song that features Snoop Dogg. Pretty fun song called Knock em down. Sort of unrelated, big name DJ Paul Oakenfold has a song in the movie Vexille that plays in the scene where the characters outrun the Dune-esq mechanical sandworms.

Spoiler that shit, nigga, not everyone has seen CLANNAD.

Spoilered, but it's kind of equivalent to spoilering Final Fantasy 7 Aerith death, after a decade it's the fault of the people not watching/playing.

The set up for the image was the Angel Beats team claiming the show is set in the afterlife, followed by every character that died/may have died/technically dead/dead in another timeline/dead by the time the show happens pointing it out.
There are a lot of them.

I don't know why I haven't seen those others yet (aside from SF2 movie), they seem right up my alley. Thanks for mentioning the Fatal Fury remasters, perfect timing to check them out.

that is from his phase where he was trying to compete with Ishinomori and other Gekiga authors. He even talks about it in one of his afterwords I think in the end of my favorite work of his (Alabaster). He looks back at this with shame
