idk why but his s medal just looks nicer to me
This is one of those things where I guess it belongs here, but it doesn't feel right.
>>11920882I've been looking for y gakuen stuff just recently thinking it would be cheap because I thought it wasn't that popular, but the stuff goes for way more than I expected.
>>11920882I forced myself to be a fan because I wanted that Pokemania feeling again. Saw some of the anime, played all 3 games, bought the watches, but it just left a bad taste because this franchise didnt really click with me that hard. But I did see the last wave of figures at the 99 Store. I love Cheeksqueek because he was fetish fuel, but he never actually inspirited anyone of importance
>>11925549>playing and watching localized shitThat was your biggest mistake here
>>11925799the anime is just Japanese teen titans go nothing is the fault of the localization
>>11925799I also watched it subbed. And im still waiting to play YW4 as soon as im comfortable with the state of Switch homebrew
>>11925799The worst they really did in localizing these games was ruin name jokes a true weeaboo would probably pick up on anyways.
>>11925918I like Oh Wheel
>>11925918I actually nailed Hidabat's original name (Hikikoumori) just by watching the localized episode he appeared in, it was a really obvious pun.
I really regret falling off the series with shadow side, all the stuff I want goes for $60-over $100. I do not wanna pay $130 for an earthwalker NOA medal. Or $50 for a single ark.
>>11925799So you speak Japanese? No?LARPer.
>>11926029Were those toys any good? I was happy with just the regular ones. I even bought the one with projector medals but it was just the same thing as the others
>>11926068The elda is pretty decent, but a ton of arks dont even play voice lines so it's only worth it if you get those specific kinds that do. The yokai watch ogre only works woth the swords but the jingles are really fucking cool.The Y Gakuen stuff is fun, all the henshin medals have unique jingles, the non-hneshin ones you probably only need 1 of each type for the unique jingle sounds if you dont wanna collect them all.
Hasbro region locking medals killed any hope the merchandise had outside of Japan. I was a huge, autistically big YW fan. I had a Tumblr just to post pics of the merch I bought and imported. I could never excuse the stupid shit Hasbro kept doing. Then when the dub kept ruining or skipping episodes, it was writing on the wall.
>>11927823Yeah everything about the localization was pretty awful. Heck, the watch itself was also of noticeably worse physical quality than the JP watch. Like you could tell they really cheated out on it.I think the only good thing that came out of the localization were the neat figures that I don't think even Japan got
>>11928204*cheaped
My wife, now and always
>>11928276Probably one of the most effective gross-cute designs in the series in my opinion.
>>11927823can I see your tumblr, please?>>11928204>I think the only good thing that came out of the localization were the neat figures that I don't think even Japan gotI think YW was just a bad IP for merch in general. There was just so much focus on how many Jibanyan variants they could make, and a lot less on the cool characters for the Poke/Digimon fan. Then we got Shadowside, where they couldn't decide if it should be a Ben 10 AF rip-off or an action version of the first series, so they put both, but nothing much for merch
