There's no need to use spoiler tags unless you have already played the game and know what's going to happen. So we time travel to Kyousuke's apartment where he gives Kanon a cup of coffee. This jump is bad news, so I'm going to do it anyway :V Kanon is trying to learn 'New Moves', but she can't learn more than four moves. Delete an older move to make room? >Creep >Skate >Troll Eiichi >Laugh at poor people She's a spriteless abomination therefore she can't win. If you want an apology you aren't getting one. that means?"
You mean the contestants of a championship want to beat eachother?! Bearman! That's quite the determination. You're really going to compare your fucking around at school to that? Good talk.
So it's time for Kanon to show us her moves. Only the daughter of Bearman could have Ride of the fucking Valkyries as her skating theme. Just look at how fast she's moving in that CG. 2fast4me Kanon's summoning the Old Ones with her Dark Figure Skating powers. ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?! What you aren't seeing is Kanon smashing the other contestants in the face as she skates around. This wouldn't be a Kyousuke inner monologue without music trivia. I can't see anyone who could be a parallel to that.
Kanon is basically Hitler is what Kyousuke's saying. Kanon's skating was so powerful that it devoured all light in the world. Bad end. Eiichi what the hell are you wearing? What am I even looking at? Wellwellwelllwelllwelwlelwelllllll Damn straight! He seems to be doing that a lot lately. It's almost like she's.... A DEEEVVVIIILLLLLL??!?!/1/
Uh? What happened to the font? And Kanon. Whew, such bearman vibes coming off her. I want to see that scene in her route. You know which.
Something screwed up with my computer and the fonts got all jumbled in the game and I couldn't find what font I was using before. So I experimented until settling for that one.
Oh, that last one is nice. Etsekuchi's... top... garment, is making my eyes bleed. Damn the artists for this game!
I just blazed through this in about a day. I was expecting to hate all of the characters based on the designs but nope! Even the little sister is pretty cool. You've gotta admire that kind of dedication. I like how she's aware that there's a lot of shocking secrets behind her family, but she actively doesn't want to know about them. I was a little antsy about them hiding all of the murder shit from her, but it looks like that's exactly what she'd want - she doesn't give a damn about being informed on any sort of big issue; she just wants to skate. That's probably going to be the defining trait that Maou wants to break her of, but it's still neat that she's both aware and unashamed of that particular attitude given how Tsubaki herself wasn't particularly aware of her own innate innocence and just figured that everyone else was like that.
Yeah, the designs of the characters don't make a good first impression. I'm not sure what's up with their art guy but he just seems completely incapable of drawing either suits or modest clothing. Kanon really isn't that bad of a character when she's not creeping on Kyousuke. Some of my favorite moments in the game is the banter between Eiichi and Kanon as they try to out troll the other. It would have been funnier if they replaced Kanon's entire route with Kyousuke and Usami teaming up to try and pair those two up because they're obviously made for eachother.
Eiichi belongs with everyone and, judging by his sprite in this scene, there's more than enough of him to go around. His proportions look off to me despite his top half being a little over three heads, which isn't so off from real life that it should bother me, is what I'm saying. Also, I'm not sure what the artist was thinking drawing everyone like they've been vacuum sealed into their clothes. The art doesn't really hurt the game much in my opinion though, it's just a minor annoyance.
I have just imagined this man- -in lingerie. I hope my posting Wagner's face here means that now you have too.
Hopefully you can see the image now, Madar Foxfire, but I honestly think we're thinking of essentially the same guy.
The former. HOW DARE YOU CONFUSE WAGNER, KING OF THE DRAGONS, WITH SUCH INFERIOR BEASTS it's been years since I played but I can't get that classy raging capslock tone of his out of my head.
Am I the only one whose first reaction to any mention of a "true self" is "I am a Shadow... the true self..."?
After spending the past few days going through Princess Tutu episodes, any time I hear ''true self'', fluttery hands and ''come dance with me'' come to mind. I didn't think it was possible but I like Kanon now. Of course, Rise of the Valkyries is an awesome enough song to turn anybody over to the other side. We should play it during political speeches.
I cannot really imagine how awesome a skating performance you have to put up for it to be appropriate to have Ride of the Valkyries as the accompany. I'd love to be able to watch it.
I don't think it could be truly appropriate unless the performance was made up of at least a dozen people synchronized skating in formation.
Nothing can stop her reign of terror. How did Eiichi know this before Kyousuke? I thought Kyousuke would have heard anything music related instantly. There won't be any music next time. She will just awkwardly twirl around while the audience looks around in confusion. ART! Oh, you want to know what the song is? Well too bad, Kyousuke and Eiichi are playing keep away. Not you too Tsubaki... Ikuko ruins everything. Relying on Kyousuke for information seems like a great idea. I refuse to be guilt tripped by Eiichi of all people.
Let's see what Methlab is up to. To be fair, ballet is pretty sinister. Survival horror! Mash the 'A' key to escape! Hair Monster spots her next victim. Oh, I guess I'm wrong. It isn't Usami. Just someone who looks exactly like her. She could smell it from a mile away. Even the villain thinks she's creepy. I'm sure nothing bad will happen.
Time for some villainous bonding. began to live a depraved life." The more people you murder the smarter you become. It's basic knowledge. Fatshaming isn't very nice. getting a beer belly." You have to get your camo index to 99%. Maou's greatest enemy is a school girl. If I was Memphis I would probably start having second thoughts around this time. Too much plot is happening. Let's go see what Kanon is up to instead. Pictured: Blank look. Kyousuke strikes me as the kind of person who would buy dirt if it was half off.
JUST BEING NICE TO HER TO GET THEM TO SELL THE HOUS- Oh wait. I like how they don't even have names. Just 'that Russian'. Aim for the stars. Then devour the stars to fuel your infinite power. A long night of ganking lowbies. Bearman must be so proud of his little hellspawn. Leave Couch-chan out of this, Kanon! Tsunderes are notably hard to defeat.
The face of reluctance. Ikuko strikes me as the kind of person that would fall in and immediately drown in any pool of water deeper than five inches. Which is terrible because Kanon obviously doesn't want to be number one in the world. I think Kyousuke has this problem covered pretty well. "Why are you still in my house?" Still not going to tell you which song it is~ Time for some serious monologuing. Who knew people being murdered could be depressing?
"Ugh, this black screen is so ugly!" mutters Kyousuke. His therapist. Notgoingaccordingtoplans.jpg Trying to comprehend the thought patterns behind Hair Monster will only destroy your sanity, Maou. It's just something mortals can't tamper with. Hey Maou, maybe you should directly involve her into your plans again. It's been working super good so far. Maou, the most evil maid in existence. All this talk of murders is giving me the vapors. Show me your moveeesssss
They're carrying the limo. Oh no, rules! The Yakuza's natural enemy! Let's see what Bearman wants with us this time. Baka. She didn't even say anything, Kyousuke! There's a difference between being Tsundere and just being a dick for no reason. So Usami tells us that she's currently at a fancy shop doing important work.
Mystery solved. Maybe Usami has found some new information for us? Well of course, that's just common sense. Looks like Usami has a new stalker crush. I'm sure Bearman will want to hear all about your stalking escapades. Who is this mysterious stranger?!
I'm not sure how to spell that name. How many 'I's is that? A new foe that even Hair Monster fears?! It's her magic murder bag. Kyousuke needs to keep on his best behavior, lest he anger this new enemy. That's quite the leap of logic to just seeing two people talking. RUN YOU FOOL!
