    I love Ruru's final stage. It comes as no surprise to me that all them are pretty laissez faire when it comes to tossing massive waves of destruction into groups of allies.

    I'm glad Werk came out with a fix patch for the black screen of death. Really, there were a lot of bugs this time around, maybe that's why they called it a prerelease version.

    Werk's been releasing patching fixing game ending bugs about once every twelve hours since release.

    Yeah... this'll be fun.

    Is Melty Blood really a doujin game?

    I mean, it's officially licensed, the story mode is written by Nasu and all, and it's had console versions.

    Well, nowadays, probably not. Ecole took over production of it with Act Cadenza, but French Bread, the original developer is definitely still in the doujin category and there's definitely an argument to be made for Nasu/Type-Moon too since most of his distribution and whatnot still happens through the doujin circles and conventions. Granted, since Fate, all they've released are the Fate/Zero novels, but those have had a far different distribution than... say... the Shana novels or what-have-you.

    New announcer is weird. New character artworks look great. Hologram Summer Again, yet another work from TM's Engrish department.

    VAkiha: Flame pits all up ins.

    Aoko: Sugoi sugoooii. Also, I'm undecided on whether her old MBAC death knell is more annoying or this one.

    Warc: They kept her batshit crazy laugh, which I love. Also, does she really need another projectile?

    Roa: I am playing the hell out of him when the PC port comes out. Also, it looks like he stole Ciel's one EX move.

    Satsuki: What the hell? Kicks? Slides? I hope this was just the guy playing as her sucking, because it looks like they completely changed her moveset, and not in a good way.

    Ciel: Spinny air throw thing is the best thing I've seen.

    Warc has -two- new projectiles. The Geese reppuken and the weird eyes pose thing. And yeah, Sion was about the only semi-competent person there, though the W.Len and Warc did bust out a couple cheesy combos. It looks like they just set the CPUs on Easy and let them go nuts. Especially since there are parts where characters just stand next to eachother for a moment or two without doing anything.

    Also note that of the three times they had to write 'Michael' for Roa, they only spelled it right twice. I consider Hologram Summer Again to be a step up from that.

    Also remember that every character has three movesets. So far, everything seems to be pointing to Crescent Moon being basically a copy of the MBAC moveset with a new special or two. Most of those videos are in Half-Moon (easy mode basically) or Full-Moon (power mode).

    Can the PC version of Act Cadenza read joystick inputs above 10? I found out how to get my PS3 pad to work on my laptop (http://boardsus.playstation.com/playstation/board/message?board.id=ps3&thread.id=1375302&view=by_date_ascending&page=1 for those interested), and the face buttons are mapped to inputs above 10, but it seems that MBAC can only read up to 9.

    Touhou works great though.

    She seemed like a bit of a pushover. I like the sound of the ED though. Also, how is Riesbyfe alive anyways? Wasn't she supposedly killed by Wallachia before MB's story began?

    Wasn't Sacchin also dead? Who knows. Melty Blood is in some kind of bizarro magical continuity. Every now and then they take a swing at saying "oh, White Len is the remnants of the Tatari and she can make it keep manifesting" or some shit but it never makes any sense.

    Hm, I thought I read somewhere that MB was supposed to follow her as-of-yet-nonexistant route from Tsukihime, which is why she's still alive (then the manga threw that out the window, oddly enough). Oh poor Sacchin, getting screwed over even in your own route.

    That guy's uploaded about five and a half hours of AA. I love that Len keeps her momentum on her air ice now. Her 2C is also cancellable. Not sure what's up with her stealing W.Len's 2B, but the air ice thing is huge. Not as nice as Akiha's because it's so much faster, but still delicious. Her 5B also angles down now for nice midrange OtG opening.

    That Ciel corner loop looks ridiculous. I like how she can go into that from midscreen.

    It also looks like Nero's pressure game has been improved quite a bit.

    Yeah, I'm not sure that'll survive a patch. It seems a little... broken. Otherwise though, Ciel's damage has gotten scaled down even further. She still lacks a good air-crossup and any decent anti-air, but she's gotten even nastier on the ground.

    There was one last Winter Comiket too. Nobody cared about it either because it was terrible.

    And who cares if some VAs were paid? The entire Higurashi cast was retained for Daybreak. All it means is that whoever is making it has far more disposable income than they should.

    Although I will say that it seems a bit... moronic... to release it at Comiket instead of Reitaisai.

    Pretty much all doujin stuff ends up being made/sold for a loss except for the top of the top.

    All it really takes is one idle rich guy (or one delusional one willing to take a loan) to buy an afternoon of VA time. Plus most of the rest are nobodies probably hoping to get free exposure among the fans.

    True enough. Still I'm interested in seeing how this turns out for better or worse. At the very least, I expect some Reimu armpit fanservice. If not this project is without redemption regardless of quality.

    How come you don't pop by the anime thread anymore Aroduc?
