Zero!
>>563353530Too much inti in the last thread. I guess that always happens when the discussion slows.
Minos will look at this and with absolute sincerity think "wife".
>>563353530Why does he look like that?
>>563353709Too bad, have a smug Zonda from a drawthread.
>>563354023The moon orbits around the earth.
>>563354045What is she so smug about?
>>563354278She carries the hopes of all mankind in her song. Yes, even the minos that she doesn't care for.GV sings with his own hubris.Sometimes, bad men win.
>>563354427Doesn't carry shit if all it took was saying her shit was retarded.
>>563354586GV just sang worse and cut her in half.Then she exploded.Things only got worse for everyone after that.
>>563354045That’s very good.>>563354023That’s also very good.
>>563354739Can't be worse than Zonda
>>563354427>Sometimes, bad men win.>ImplyingShe needed to stopped. Yeah, GV does seem regretful despite his self-denials when confronted by the Tenjian ghost in GV3, but it's not because he came around to her ideals, it's because he killed a little girl. He definitely still disagrees with Eden's methods, even if he sympathizes with their desire for safety in retrospect. It's a bit of a retcon, but I like it. It makes Gunvolt more sympathetic. It, and harming Quinn, fucked him up so much that he stopped using his powers lethally afterward, making Zonda the final person he killed.
>>563353139>>563354023I love the moon so much
>>563356356No, the genocides and oppression had to end. GV ensured they'd continue for decades afterwards.
>>563356546They would have continued regardless. All that happened was that Zonda got told to get.
It's so much simpler, so much better, to pick love over hate.Why must we choose the latter so consistently?
>>563353139Aryan propaganda
>>563357301These pictures drive me wild. See, here’s what’s enticing about Ciel
Can you imagine how confusing GV's guilt issues must be for people who've only experienced the 8-4 script?
Discussing GV's guilt and actions are moot as Morb reset the timeline for him. Everyone will be alive again. All the Elisefags, Zondafags, Gibrilfags, Desnafags, and whatever else can rejoice.
>>563360007We don't have to. When the triangle edition released we spent a whole month posting Pantera as a result of people coming to terms with it.
>>563360161Why is Kirin even timeline hopping to search for him then?
>>563360276That’s probably not the Kirin we know. Multiverse stuff is weird.
>>563360161So shooting them again and again until a genuine fix is found.
>>563360190Last thread was the first time I actually saw people digging into GV3's script. Before that, it was just people bitching about how it wasn't continuing the story from GV2, or bitching about Kirin, or bitching about Gunvolt getting shit on. Turns out it's just a reset button because the staff wanted their OCs from the first two games back because these characters deserve more than a few lines in a single stage, and Gunvolt feeling down was for legitimate PTSD reasons. Can you imagine some of the GV1 and GV2 antagonists being allowed to interact with each other and play a role in the plot like the GV3 characters? Wouldn't that be cool?
>>563361206>4chan being a piece of shit and cutting off the last 2 seconds of my webmTypical.
>>563361507a sign that Eden gets cut out of existence anyway
>>563361786Rude.
>>563360652Moebius showed him that the only way to save the world is to either off himself or make friends. Predicting that if there's a next game, apart from having to stop Nova and Zonda without murder, he's going to have somebody else Xiao trying to murder him to save humanity. Tsuda really likes well-intentioned anti-villains.
>>563361206Reminder that this webm is a canonical scene. It's what led to Eden formulating their plans in GV1 and GV2.
>>563362308And that Gibril was very popular with non-septimal men.
>>563361928but true
>>563362118It'd be Xiao and Cope working together.
are we sleepmelt again
>>563362118If you're going with Locke then GV becomes an idol. Things just repeat as everyone wants to kill him to take his power.
>>563362720But we already have that with Joule.
>>563362883Did I stutter?
>>563362883>>563362720Gunvolt becomes Joule? Actually have something for you parodying that, because drawfags are geniuses.
>>563362713no Z2 no life
>>563363062>becomes an idol duet with Mytyl>Acura takes on the role of Genocidekamen, the equal parts hateful and savior anti-villain that is revealed to be the striker maiden's long lost twin brother>can Michiru and Gunvolt turn him away from the path of evil? >will that talking ball ever take human form like she says she could?>will anyone actually pay money for this?Also GV is a girl now
Reminder that this is what GV would have canonically been similar to in the first two games.
>>563364489No. Go watch the crappy OVA. It'd be more like that. ZED is significantly more bullshit than GV was in Gunvolt 1 and 2.
>>563363848
>>563365269Hibiki?
>>563360161If INTI does a soft reboot with a merciful GV, the GVbowl is going to get really ugly.
>>563366019If Inti survives that long
>>563366019Ah yes, the bowl where he's not interested in any of them and the one girl he didn't sister zone wants him to kill her.Do you guys even play these games?
>>563366327Fingers crossed. I need my fix. Gunvolt 3 was too much fun.
>>563353139The bunny threads will continue until Inti releases another hit.
>>563366421New timeline, new possibilities. Gibril and Elise were interested in him. Even he realized it. They were enemies though, so he did what Asimov trained him to do. Joule almost got her love confession out to him in GV1. She might on this go around, which would cause GV to recontextualize a lot of their relationship. There's Quinn to consider as well. Mytyl has a bit of a starcrossed vibe with him. Kirin is next to impossible, but Gunvolt was falling for her by the end of GV3 and his last thoughts as he was "dying" was that he wanted to see her one more time.
>>563363669do >we want mm7 sunrererereremelt
You guys chickened out of the absolute kino that would be Kirbo and now this?
>>563367191So they won't stop.
I mean theres the mayl cattail buttplug...
>>563367191>Inti hits its own office kyoani style to collect the insurance
>>563368790Not our fault that blondes have a monopoly on cunny
>>563368117And that's bad because...
>>563366421>Kirin: You can resolve many things with empathy and communication.>Dragon Saviors: Hey, we'd all be dead if we fought you in Gunvolt 1 or 2, but because it was Kirin, we're your best buddies and team mates here.>Ghosts: You can't hide from your regrets, you child murdering, friend betraying, patricidal terrorist. You never even thought of us as people.>ZED: Had you killed me when you had the chance, Luxia wouldn't have been able to come in clutch against Morbvolt.>GV: Killing sucks. I suck. I fucked up. So many lives wasted. Maybe it would have been better if I had died.>God Baby: Dying would save the world. But a better way for everyone would be to make friends with your enemies. BTW, I'm going to burn through your powers to send you back to the moment of your birth now. Have fun, and don't come back until you get that golden ending.Gee, I wonder what direction things will go, and if these directions would encourage some of those female enemies to want to befriend and romantically pursue Gunvolt instead of kill him, especially considering a few of them thought he was attractive back in the original timeline.
>>563369278We'll run out eventually.
>>563370451The problem is that the world would lose it's flavor and now he a proper LN made into a game.
>>563368621And then they move to Mexico
>>563367571I'll just keep starforcing until we can pay our debt
>>563370883What you'd get are uncomfortable GV shenanigans. He's not a harem protag. He's not Houdai or ZED. He gravitates towards one girl, and contrary to the memes, he's not all that dense.
>>563371541Copen is more of a harem protagonist than Zed or Gunvolt.
>>563371023I guess if you're trying to kill Inti for good.
>>563372171He said Mexico, not California.
>>563372541Anon please, no one can open a fucking business here.
>>563372541Yes that's why I said killing Inti.
>Kirin>nonlethal fighting style>spares absolutely everyone>even befriends Nova>gets to Asimov>Kirin: The atmosphere from this Septima feels pure evil>Asimov reveals himself>they fight>Kirin purposefully goes for killstrikes against Asimov>Mortally wounds him>Asimov: You have become King...and at your side...your Queen... and our comrades...gather again...in Utopia... >Kirin: We'll carry the dreams of adepts with us. . But... That doesn't mean your wishes will be fulfilled. The fate of the world is for the living to decide. Damn, Kirin really hates this guy. She even gives him the classic cold Gunvolt send-off. No sympathy, does not bother to comfort him. Felt like I was back in one of the first two games. I didn't know she had it in her.
>>563373760He wanted to turn her into a giant brain.she was also trying to kill Cope
>>563373760>Kirin purposefully goes for killstrikes against AsimovShe does?
>>563373760Because Asimov is the sickest person in Gunvolt. The rocket launcher joke at the start makes you think he's going to be another quirky character, but it gets dark quick, and in no time, he's talking about forcing the teenage girl his foster son has a crush on to marry him, then Mytyling her for her septima. He's on such another level compared to everyone else, he feels like an intruder into GV3. All the returning characters from GV1 and GV2 slot naturally into the tone of GV3, but Asimov is a fucking extraterrestrial.Also, many adepts aren't actually aiming to kill, just maim. When you die, it's more of a gameplay abstraction. In actuality, ZED and his knights, or Kirin and her boys in the DLC, would have just beaten and restrained you. Asimov is trying to kill. His combat style is about killing as quickly and mercilessly as possible. Kirin responds in kind.Finally, they're fighting in what looks like the brain room before Mytyl was brained. Mytyl might be in there, and Kirin might be subconsciously picking up whatever he's doing to her. Adepts are psychics. In the Japanese script, they are literally called psychics. So they can feel one another sometimes. Muses are especially good at it. Mytyl might not be a giant brain yet, but if she's around, she's projecting a lot of anguish, which would cause Kirin to be less of a nice girl.>>563374057The dialogue would be nonsensical if he wasn't dying.
>>563373760And it true Gunvolt fashion she left that world with a huge power vacum.
>>563376463Aren't they stuck there?
>>563373760Is this what people wanted more of out of Kirin?
>>563376612That's gonna be awkward.
>>563376769Nah.
>>563376769No. Most of us like her being well-adjusted and empathetic to contrast Copen and Gunvolt.
>>563379839I don't like that these two seem to be the only real characters in the game. None of the base NPCs felt like anything, and all the silent protagonists don't have nearly enough visual character.
>>563380278Imperial has a character. It's just that her character is Rance victim #3.
>>563353785The goverment doesn't want you to know this but adeps are free, you can just pick them off the streets and nobody can do anything, I've collected two adept wifes now.
>>563376769I did, yeahGV3's tone sucks dick
>>563380865Only in the promotional material.
I once asked AI if it was polygamy to marry several people whom were the same person.The answer was yes but actually no so there'd be grounds for a discrimination lawsuit if the wedding to three women who are the same woman is impeded.I wish I had saved that.Now that I think about it, this also applies to Cyan since Morpho is her or rather a protection of her ideal self and would be part of the relationship too. And Morpho is now with Kirin so her future husband to be in a relationship with Kirin and Kirin's friend's memory of a friend's tulpa. Why does this keep happening?
The rare cool Zack.
>>563366019Gunvolt will have to face his greatest challenge yet; Female jealousy.
Oh boy can't wait to see more of the same 5 Gibril pictures posted in this thread over and over too
>>563388751There's been a lot of new Gerbils posted lately. New for me, at least. Folder's up to 139 now.
I found this while sorting my folder and it made me feel bad. I hope it makes you feel bad too.
>>563390337I refuse to lose hope.
>>563390337Not particularly.
>>563371178can't believe luna killed john telemelt...
>>563360161Sounds lame. That's one of the reasons the MCU sucks so much ass.
Connect x sucks. Should've just made him a boss fight instead.Cope doesn't need more Ls to his collection, but I think a cool setpiece would've done more justice than just highlighting how fucking awful his iX2 design is. Again.
>>563390859>locks septimal gaki in a rape dungeon >after 2 weeks of corrections she gives you this look as she drops a positive pregnancy test at your feet
>>563390553Nice
>>563387281Where is he?
Fairy Leviathan.
>>563387281I respect this guy for being a dedicated Megaman artist considering there's no reward in that.
If no SF4 i want SF3 anime atleast
>>563353139
>>563404721Why is that Iris so sad?
>>563405864No new Lev content.
>>563390423How long would Elise, Zonda, Isola and Gibril survive on the Makai maid wars. Not asking for Desna because the stars will tell her to BTFO as fast as she can.
>>563390337>>563390859>Temu Luluka
>>563414401Wait, does she actually act like Zonda? I thought her being like Zonda were just memes, and she'd be more like a Fate ripoff.
>>563414675Nope, 1 to 1 Zonda in a less cruel world.
>>563414675No, she's Zonda.
>>563414675Zonda's the fake
Gunvolt would have worked better if she had a hidden twin sister who was responsible for turning him into the Azure Striker as well as being Copen's love interest and giving Zonda the idea to form Eden
>>563414675>mastermind>deceiful>antagonist, but not evil>attacks with illusions and playing cards, can make illusions real>represented by a butterflies and purple mirros in visuals>sings>unemotional, quiet voice>lewd personality, invades personal space, gets touchy, makes the other boys and girls uncomfortable>makes the zonda facepeople were meming, but it turned out to be more accurate than we could have thought, especially because the one boy character looks like gunvolt.
any game is better with sex
>>563416614>singsWell guess she's not a Zonda then
>>563416649>Points at Madden and FIFA
>>563416614Inti literally killed the golden goose for shock value...and Gibril might have been a silver egg goose if Marie is anything to go by.
>>563416875Pantera sings. Paradise Lost shares the same labels unique to the other muse tracks in the gamefiles. Had they the budget and time, she'd have her own insert song.
>>563417239>Panteraywn be japanese
>>563416614The purple mirrors and butterflies stuff is the most damning.
>>563417239Worse than Jiibui
>>563249907So that means that Grazie is (and by far) the most high maintenance girl Inti has ever done. She probably can even take a bite out of ATEMs millitary budget
>>563417216>Inti literally killed the golden goose for shock valuemaybe in GV2 it was just for edgy shock value, but GV3 reframed it for story and character development. it wasn't shock and done, move on to next enemy that GV2 showed it was, it really fucked GV up and he feels deep regret for killing her. inti resurrected her at the end of GV3 anyway when morb granted GV's wish.
>>563418273That or they just don't exist so he doesn't "kill" them.
Alice in the Wonderland Zonda is pretty tired and uninteresting. Bigender GV1 adept with Justice dickclits was the true flavor.
>>563418467Could be. That would allow them to sidestep rehiring voice actors, but if that was the case, they could have just kept GV in Kirin's timeline, or timeskipped him into the future. Luxia specifically said that GV was returned to the time and place of his birth, so that would imply that it's the same world with most of the same people. If they don't appear, it's probably because Gunvolt would not have encountered them rather than them never having existed.
>>5634184958-4 only made stuff up, Anon-kun, it time to let go.
>>563416548Isn't that what people think Xiao's character is about. He pushes a lot of things behind the scenes. He seems to know a lot more than he's letting on. He's hinted at having time powers. In the Jap script, Nori pointedly asks him if he plans to give the pendant to Eden or Gunvolt at the very end of the game. Reading between the lines, she'd only ask him that if he'd worked with/manipulated Eden too. Very fishy guy. Hope to see more of him if they ever make a new Gunvolt gaem.
>>563370456Make more with AI
Peak just dropped boyshttps://youtu.be/hL4VR0v6jQo?si=oQPpH8tJxKWFR5IP
>>563421265Xiao is nothing.man, I'm talking about a hidden sister who becomes the catalyst for Gunvolt becoming the Azure Striker, is Copen's love interest, probably influenced Professor Kamizono's research and also gave Zonda the idea behind Eden. They're similar but completely different.
>>563386585The answer is yes because at a certain point they will become different from each others
>>563421673Oh wow, it is!
>>563373760What if Asimov was good? (Part 26) [67:34]
>>563421673More like cringe.
>>563422147Followed by:Zonda, a true sociopath. (Part 27) [61:47]
>>563421673>Rezurrection I still don't get the point of that fangame.

>>563422764far as I can tell, having a bunch of X stuff in the Zero style (like a fully playable X too)
>>563422896
>>563423102
>>563423321
>>563422209Shut up Lev, you died offscreen.
>>563422209Damn guardiangaki... Needs Zero correction...!
>>563424442Lev is only MIA, no confirmed death. Zero however? Actually confirmed died offscreen. Stick to your cringe Youtube comment section writing fanfiction.
>>563424442did she thogh :^)
>>563425170Vague way of saying she got a nuke to the face.
>>563425305Except that it isn't said at all, unlike Zero.
>>563417216>>563416614Also how she disguises herself for infiltration and trolling. She's proof that if Magical Mytyl ever gets a rival, it needs to be Zonda.I wonder how INTI feels about it?
>>563425624Mytyl would be able to handle the Zonda bants better than most characters. She's supposed to be intelligent and snappy. Lola's personality module was trained off of her.
mythril kamizono is a total nothing character
>>563426185>supposed to be intelligentIt feels like a good chunk of septimals we see are geniuses. Kirin and Shiron tested out of high school and are attending college courses despite being 13-14. There are plenty of other adepts throughout the series who are geniuses, like Merak, Tesseo, Zonda, Asroc, ZED, and Nova. Even Gunvolt and Joule are really smart. Neither of them had any schooling, but they wanted to go to school just to feel normal. So over Summer break, they mastered the K-8th Grade curriculum so they could attend classes together. GV did this on top of working a job. Like that's insane. I am having a really difficult time arguing against why adepts shouldn't rule humanity, especially because in the GVerse, my kids or their kids will likely be adepts themselves.
Dr. Kamizono survived but now has to wear a silver mask
>>563427287>So over Summer breakJapanese break is only around 40-odd days, just to give you an idea. I don't think Sumeragi is doing American style breaks.
>>563427287The named adepts you see in game are exceptional. They're to adepts what normal adepts are to nonadepts and then some. Your normie adept is only slightly more intelligent and fit than a nonadept on average, and their power isn't all that special. In fact, most of them are better off relying on guns over their powers. Septimal power can scale your physical and mental abilities, so if your septima is the type to boost intelligence, and you are a top tier adept, you are going to be a supergenius. The argument against adepts is that they're all slightly insane due to anime brain, and one of them will eventually achieve Octima and rewrite reality.
>>563414962And Inti won't sue because they're bitches.
>>563422590>>563422896How'd they get the reflections in the fragments?
>>563429257Anyone remember their response when Yugioh paid homage to several of their IPs?
>>563425624>I wonder how INTI feels about it?How would you feel about having a 100 million dollar idea, that you killed when you spent the last 10 years sleeping at your office and eating nothing but instant ramen?Also, I haven't been here because shit hit the fan on the other big thing that I follow, how's the Starforce and the Kingdom Return thingy doing?
>>563426185Oh god, you might be right! Mytyl might even outhorny Zonda id Roro is anything to go by.
>>563429257There's got to be some character they're both drawing from, because there are just too many similarities, in the same way that To Aru and Gunvolt are similar because they're both inspired by the same source material.
>>563418889The timeline still has to be consistent right. Mytyl is still going to die if they don't remove her septima, Joule will still be made to host it, the Muse is still paramount for every faction involved. The one thing that can be different is Gunvolt's approach since Kirin's teachings proved that Adepts didn't HAVE to die and CAN be reasoned with, just so long as you beat them enough to hit the factory reset.Copen is more of a wild card, but that's for Mytyl to try and fix.
https://www.pixiv.net/en/artworks/143439408 voting this for next OP.
>>563429257>Implying the won't just copy back
>>563430873>Kirin's teachings proved that Adepts didn't HAVE to die and CAN be reasoned withUnless you're Asimov. He's the only character who's gotten less sympathetic over time. Originally, his Septima was causing progressive brain damage, which explained why he pivoted from raising GV to treat everyone equally to being more racist than Tenjian.
>>563432854That's not how that meme works.>>563430873Nah, he's gonna go into full Maracanazo mode whenever someone yells "goooooolasoooo!" And muder all the people all over again. But hey, maybe this time we will know what happened to Gino and Moniqa.
>>563410994With Elise, they're all gonna make it.
>>563431563Just keep him down and let his brain damage progress until he has to be carted around in a wheelchair by Moniqa. All's well that ends well.
>>563434327The only issue is that he's growing more powerful as his brain becomes more damaged.
>>563432854Lev oyakodon...
>>563432854But the mom is the dark elf/mother elf.
The wallpapers will be canon. That's what all the buildup in Gunvolt 3 is pointing towards. I'm surprised that people were so blind to it for years. So many people whining about how GV3 severs the series from everything before it when it is the Gunvolt game most obsessed with the past. So many people who think that this is a conclusion to Gunvolt's story when the ending of GV3 and its DLC have a far stronger sequel hook than GV1 or GV2 did. Or they feel the next Gunvolt is going to be like iX, where the games are only very loosely connected, when it's literally stated that Gunvolt is in HIS past. The plot threads and mysteries from GV2, like Nori, Xiao, and the pendant, or the end of the world, are still there, they were just put temporarily on pause. GV3, in retrospect, will feel like a bridge between arcs in the series, a real middle game.All this assumes INTI does not go under, of course. The economy is predicted to be rough in the coming years, but vidya companies have proven to be resilient in economic downturns.>>563430421>How would you feel about having a 100 million dollar idea, that you killed when you spent the last 10 years sleeping at your office and eating nothing but instant ramen?>Gunvolt's guilt complex was just INTI projectionCould also be why they Elise'd everyone with Gunvolt's wish.
>>563437342>The wallpapers will be canon.Maybe a variant. Details like Joule being Lumen implies that her physical body died, which isn't cool.
>>563437342GV wallpapers show what will never be. INTI dissolves in December.
>>563430421>shit hit the fan on the other big thing that I followIf you say something like that, then I have to ask what you're talking about
>>563437342We can only have the light of hope if Pantera wins.>but the racist minos doing pogroms killing adepts and minos that don't hate adepts!Fuck 'em.
>>563437342Finally... My Cope x Nova pairing will be canon...
>>563437342>So many people who think that this is a conclusion to Gunvolt's story when the ending of GV3 and its DLC have a far stronger sequel hook than GV1 or GV2 did.It's because most of them played it before the ending was patched. Postpatch established a problem and gave GV a clear objective to pursue. Prepatch, the ending felt very open, like it was something you could continue or end a series on. It's the difference between ending a game with:>we blew up the invader's mothership>mabey there are more out there, but the game makes no comment on itvs>we blew up the invader's mothership>it sent a signal out at the last moment, which is picked up by ships on the other side of the galaxyThe prepatch ending was very unsatisfying in comparison. Aside from the above, the postpatch ending had some nice feels with Gunvolt and Kirin's relationship. Gunvolt thinks he's dying, so the last thing he does as he loses consciousness is thank Kirin and say how much he wanted to see her again. It's the sort of bittersweet stuff I love in Gunvolt endings. The other thing is that the dialogue confirming that Gunvolt was sent back to the time and place of his birth, and not some alternate dimension, is in one of the ATEMS home conversations. Most home conversations are boring, so people skip them. The ATEMS ones are good though; they probably have the best team dynamic since Eden in Eden's Party, and they do a lot more lore/story talk than Kirin and her bros or Quinn and Joule. I'd recommend.

Why do adepts explode? They ain't robots? Why doesn't GV explode when killed by greed snatcher when he explodes to everything else? Are Gunvolt games just badly thought out rule of cool stuff to copy Megaman?
>>563450813Because of the armed phenomenon. It reacts negatively to the death of the adept, which is why they explode.
>>563450813There is actually an autistic lore blurb about this, because INTI backs up most of its anime nonsense. What you're seeing is their septimosome escaping their corporeal form. So long as there's a phylactery to collect the septimosome, like say a glaive or Kirin's sword, the adept can recover. It's why the Sumeragi adepts Elise resurrected weren't husks like the other zombies she brought back; their souls were held in their glaives, allowing a transplant back to the bodies. It's also why Gunvolt just drops dead when he's shot by the greed snatcher, as that negates his septima, making him for all intents, a regular human.
>>563433789>That's not how that meme works.I fail to see what's wrong with it?
>>563446086Slop SlopsonAn anon who can't pick up a pencil
>>563451560>It's also why Gunvolt just drops dead when he's shot by the greed snatcherHe doesn't drop dead though, he needs a proper cap in his ass after greed snatcher neutralizes his septima. Copen also got his ass handed to him by Asimov despite hitting the latter with GS. The only time GS provokes a violent reaction is when the adept in question is under the armed influence as we see Elise explode only seconds after getting hit.
What would happen if, say, you switched muses? Just for an evening?
>>563456527Whoever got stuck with Zonda is going into the ditch early with her.
>>563456624Nah, she'd be like your guardian angel/conscience. Only lewd and commie.
>Sonia was more popular back when the games originally came out>Luna is more popular nowWhat changed?
>>563457087Idol fatigue?
>>563457087What's your point of reference? It's not like they get talked about here
>>563457087The kids grew up and developed the part of the brain that knows what taste is.
>>563457218Fanart
>>563457319Luna always had more fanart, she has a dedicated doujin artist to herself.
>>563456810Nah we know her luck is trash.
>>563458506At least she picked hearts as her favorite card suit, you know, instead of spades.Now that would have been really unlucky.
>>563456527That's a really good-looking Zonda.>>563456810I would love that in a GV game. Zonda as a shoulder angel or muse. Put that in 3, have her be all spiteful.>>563457087You know how Capcom didn't realize the lunar gold they'd struck at first and gradually realized it over time? The same is true of the fanbase. And that gradual increase in popularity never really stopped, so years latter here we are.
>>563457087luna really didn't get promoted as a main heroine until 3, most of the art for 1 and 2 has her in the background, so it makes sense that it took a while for her popularity to catch up
Don't see anything that bad about it, why did people complain? It's just a pretty linear wave road with a nifty song.
>>563463767Enjoy repeating it for map travelling until the shortcut opens
>>563451560>It's why the Sumeragi adepts Elise resurrected weren't husks like the other zombies she brought backIsn't it rather because Crazylise is the only one with the full resurrection power? (That plus gameplay/story segregation)

>>563474082Have you seen who the mom was?
is SF2 really built for you to abuse the OP stuff? I'm mid game and enemies are so tanky, while standard cards without star feels weak.
>>563479023What's your folder like? If you aren't abusing freeze breaking, bubble zapping or grass burning your damage won't keep up with the enemies.
I love Zonda and Mytyl because they are my kudowaifus. Yes, I know, noobcrutches, but I ask of you, is a wife's ability not predicated on her ability to support her man when he is trying to S++ a stage on challenging? Should she not be the gentle hand the steadies his steps when Prado pulls out some Song of Ice and Fire bullshit, or be the hand that uplifts him, turning a paltry 8000 (A) kudos into a kingly 12800 (S++)?
>>563479527Asking my wife Prado to make a pool of water to drown out the Zonda screeching.
>>563479883Hilarious that this goofball is meant to be stronger than Tenjian.
>>563480103According to whom?Her only talent is tricking people into thinking she has two different powers.
>most competent mainline GV villain>always one step ahead of protagonists, even when his forces loses the battle, he comes out ahead>ensures subordinates always make it out>actually completes and uses Project Muse, but it's just one step in his master plan >could transform, but doesn't bother with it because it fucks with his head and would be unsporting>comes closest to winning>only mainline villain who is playable; has a very fun playstyle>actually wins in the DLC>is alive at the endWhy are Nova and Zonda more popular than him?
>>563479180She's so cute.
>>563481115People usually group Zed with the protagonists in their minds. He's definitely more popular than Nova, at least.As for competent villains, iX villains are more competent than GV villains since they only lose after decades of winning. They've usually accomplished their main goals and are now basking in the afterglow.
>>563481236>usuallyiX was a one-and-done spinoff. By "they" you mean just Asimov.
>>563481651iX1 and iX2

>Merak/Teseo double team illusion fight>Merak is being a little shit throwing a tantrum about how GV murdered him, he can't go home now because he's dead, and the other three people there are annoying and should die>Kirin starts vibing with Teseo>They're playing off of each others jokes and discussing nerd shit>Merak continues to whine>GV absolutely horrified and intervenesIs there any single badguy group that this battle miko won't end up liking? If Eden were around, she'd totally crash at their place.

If evil power is so strong how come it never wins
>>563488286It did. Kirin rules undisputed.
>>563481236>As for competent villains, iX villains are more competent than GV villains since they only lose after decades of winningThat's only because Copen is a joke character. If the iX verse had a competent main character it would've just been mainline.
>>563463767don't use assist mode and you'll understand by the end of the game
Just so you know, at some point in his life, likely during GV as he fought Morb, GV realized this whole everything could have been avoided if he hadn't murdered Elise. Could have just brought Cyan back, stop the chain of events that turned him into a floating Pomeranian.
>>563496376Ahhh, what a shame. And this is him trying to protect Joule?It's too bad.Too bad.It sure is too bad, you know?Zonda should've been tormenting GV throughout 3.
>>563474082Why are evil magical girls always so rapey.
>>563481773What did Mother "win" exactly? She wants to die but can't. All the robots are just aimlessly carrying out their directives after they failed and let humans die out.
If coming first in the loserbowl is winning then Luna won.
>>563499124Depending on the ending she either gets to join Acura and Elfie in haven or takes over Kohaku's body.
>>563499124It's built on the meme that iX2 is a world where Copen *somehow* won, which is honestly just a laughable thought. He can't even win on a good day as a turbotuned cyborg, much less a human.
>>563479023The game is built around you abusing counters to spam multiple tribe super moves in sequence. If you aren't building around countering then build around abusing double damage from grass, bubble, freeze, etc.
I sure do love Fairy Leviathan.
>>563501974Thetis...
>>563505402What do you mean Thetis.
>>563430421>How would you feel about having a 100 million dollar idea, that you killed when you spent the last 10 years sleeping at your office and eating nothing but instant ramen?Yeah, her shit is always sold out everywhere. Been that way for months. People really like that deceitful and smug lewd troll.>>563488147A lot of comments saying just that.
>>563422764>dude what if MMZ but everyone from X is back for revenge for no reason
>>563505402....'s bussy is wet.
>>563506828So typical MMZfag fanfiction.
>>563507283If that's typical, I'm curious about the other examples...
>>563430421>How would you feel about having a 100 million dollar idea, that you killed when you spent the last 10 years sleeping at your office and eating nothing but instant ramen?
>>563483752The Tenjian illusion does say that Kirin isn't fit to "appreciate our shared ideals," so she's definitely on the same wavelength as Eden. Furthermore, she doesn't work with a single minos in all of GV3. Doesn't even have a minos secretary. Why is that?
>>563509336>Doesn't even have a minos secretary. Why is that?It's because minos suck. Shiron and Apollo can do the work of an entire office floor of normies in a quarter of the time. Kirin and Shiron have both already tested out of high school and are college students on the side, and they're 14 and 13 respectively. You just can't beat an adept at their fixation, and you certainly won't beat one of the superintelligent ones at smart stuff unless you're a 6th wave freak like Cope.
is there anything precluding Z2melt this week
Amazing how Megaman x Sonic still ranks among best comic events of all time.
>>563512885Maybe for Sonic. On the Megaman side, it was incredibly fucking retarded.
>>563509176Still wild to me that Gunvolt went from coldly taunting Zonda as she sobbed for her aniki to nearly having an emotional break-down when Serpentine's illusions brought up how he murdered her.
>>563515548Bad/inconsistent writing.Hatered of old Copen and Gunvolt.
>>563512885That's because >1) Sonicgoycattle will eat any slop you put in front of them>2) Comics have been shit even before they went woke, and been doing about as bad sales wise too
>>563515548Because (regardless of what that dog fucker fed might say) the world is still fucked, Sumeragi is still in charge, he became every bit the monster Desna told him he would be, and just to add insult to injury he's the sex pet of of Sumeragi's biggest apologists so all the times he called Nova "Sumeragi guard dog" came to bite him in the ass in the most ironic was possible.
>goycattle>translation: Thing is popular with lots of peopleSo its just intifags mad their own games are anything but popular
>>563517204>lots of people>lots of cattle and you forgot the part about how the term was coined by the ratty
>>563517204Because Pokemon proves that the most popular things are the best ones, right?
>>563517802But sucking Inti's cock on the daily makes you the free thinker, right?
>>563516858So you're saying that if things turned out okay, he would have been cool with killing Zonda? GV3's script didn't make it sound that it way. It sounded like killing Zonda was the sore point, and shit not getting better was just salt in the wound.I am just saying that it's really funny or dumb that he was super edgy, showing no compassion and absolute hate toward her in GV2, to GV3 where he loses composure and is super regretful when Zonda's death is brought up
>>563518479Yes. Sorta how Mr. Fantastic talked to all his alternative selfs and found out that all the best timelines where the ones where Germany won WW2 and/or WW1.
SFbros..... I thought our collection was selling like hotcakes??Pointing out anything led to being hated on. 2 weeks have passed, so where's the 1 million sold tweet from KEKpom? Oh wait, it's probably not even at half of it.But no, a Trueman had to be shunned for pointing out.. the truth.Keep waiting for that Legends collection, surely it'll come.
>>563515548>>563519034Zonda full on crying after GV's taunt probably did more damage to him than the entire preceding fight.
>>563422590>>563422896>>563423102>>563423321>>563423514Zoondafags are crazy dedicated. They are the most hardcore Gunvoltfags.
>>563488147You'll get a cheap plastic stand and a 3D crystal display and you're going to like it.
I heard that if Gunvolt was ever allowed to reach adulthood, the universe would end.
>>563529071That's just a Code Escape villain.
>>563524596To be fair, Zonda also has the most hardcore doujins out all Inti girls. And Ciel has some very fucked up stuff.
>>563456527>next GV game>Zonda is enemy muse who reses bosses for a bonus challenge if your kudos are high by level's endWould be fun.
>>563506250Man, this sucks. Arcana Shadow is the closest I'm getting to a Pantera plushie.
>>563383941How are you going to feel when Kirin's pacifism and compassion retroactively infects GV1 and GV2 through MorbVolt?
>>563430757They're both drawing heavily from Alice in Wonderland and the Magical Girl genre. Aside from that, pink + blond hair anime girls often come off as equally regal and sultry. Like they can be sophisticated, but they also enjoy teasing and using their good looks as weapons. The similarities in the way they speak and emote, and the associated symbols are uncanny, though, but again, that might be because they're both Alices.
>>563536950The fact that she uses pink-purple mirrors during her transformations, uses illusions in combat, is constantly disguising herself, transformation is accompanied by purple butterflies, attacks with playing cards, talks about tempting others to her illusory world, themes of illusions and lies being reality, etc. on top of the way she talks, looks, and acts. There's too much.
>>563538149Just goes to show Pantera was worth more than gold and inti decided she'd be better dead to make the lead guy's Locke OC look cool.
>>563538149Someone's gotta ask Inti their take on this already. Tweet it or something.
>>563539251They'll say they can't because of the modern audience even as Arcana Shadow clears house repeatedly.
>>563539529I don't think they'd say that.
>>563539251>John Inti, why did you think it was a good idea to kill off all your best characters in one game?>sincerely, Megaman General
>>563539097Why GV felt more guilt for killing her than the other adepts (seriously, doesn't Elise deserve it more), why her IP is an autoadd for kudomaxing stages, and why GV wished for a redo from Morb at the end.>>563539764>You're right. That's why we sent Gunvolto back to the past where they are all alive.
>>563536116But that's what we've wanted all along. I just hope INTI can hold on and deliver.
>>563539685>all of CnC and Servants of the DarkThey already have.
>GV is back in time>there's already set up for magical girl Mytyl>and a proof at the strength of magical girl Pantera Surely they won't just pass this up to make us remember Acura is weaker than GV again. Right?
>>563540357I don't think they'd say that because it wouldn't make sense as a response to that question, anon.
>>563540603They keep saying they can't make certain things because of changing perceptions in the market. So no Arcana Shadow for any of us, they'll just let this pass.
>>563540724Speaking of responses not making sense...
>>563540508>Surely they won't just pass this up to make us remember Acura is weaker than GV again. Right?They did severely nerf Gunvolt at the end of GV3. Remember, Morb shattered their octima, leaving most of the power behind when they launched themselves back through time. The white sparkly things trailing the Gunvolt comet? That's his power bleeding away. ZED and Layla then accidentally destroyed all of GV's shed septimosome shards save for one.I'm guessing somebody might be wrangling Tsuda. Maybe GV3 really is an extended metaphor, with GV being Tsuda and Kirin being his handlers.
>>563540508>Surely they won't just pass this up to make us remember Acura is weaker than GV again. Right?It's not about the money, it's about sending a message.That said, one doesn't necessarily exclude the other.
Do you guys have some simple Alia-related animations requests ? I didn't animate in a while
>>563543162How about Alia doing this pose. Slowly smiling.
>>563540046>seriously, doesn't Elise deserve it moreBut Zonda started crying after Gunvolt slapped her with a Grand Strizer. Like full on tears. No boy likes seeing that.
>>563539251Inti is too busy releasing shovelware after shovelware to care about such things
>>563543493Acura if she's an adept.Guy's full of hate to a level we can't grasp.
>>563539529Clears house without the lewd that Inti adds. Almost like Inti lacks soul.
>>563543574They don't have shovelware to make right now as bokura kingdom is ""finished"", a ps5 port out of all things and little to nothing tweaks for a 7/4 year old game rerelease (grim)Surely trust bitsummit
>>563543973You don't like Kirin's athletic JK (even though she's taking college courses) booty?
Anybody on Switch got a Sirius V2 they could trade me? I can give a V3 or an X if you’d like.Room is 3NRUWRLW

I don't give a rat's ass about Kirin and the only good thing about Precure is the porn.
>>563543973It lacks the spirit of old.They have been tamed by payment processors.
>>563544450Are you the same anon trying to get a trade in BN6?
>>563544406Kirin testing out of highschool before she hit 14 sounds extremely stupid and handwavy on the surface, yet is very logical and internally consistent within the world building if you dig down, just like most Gunvolt lore.
>>563545184No, I had the BN collection on the ps4, what a fucking mistake that was.
>>563416614>>563414962that's too funny. leave it to inti to screw themselves over
>>563545207Eh, I don't really like it. Makes her too good. I adore that picture, though.
>>563545290>hey let's develop a very interesting world and very fun characters>good, now we kill those characters and do nothing with the world or story>we are geniuses
>>563545207Because the inclusion of Kirin herself is extremely stupid and handwavy, you never truly get a sense of exactly who Kirin is at her core. You're told some vague ideals, but never why those are important to Kirin. Not like they're ever challenged in the game itself as every villain conveniently changes their view to match Kirin's, and those who don't deserved to die anyway. She comes off less as a person and more like a loose collection of character traits strung together by the whims of the narrative. Terrible character to base your thread identity around.
>>563545256And it may also be a mistake on Switch by how that BN6 anon hasn't been able to get a trade for months now.
>>563545746Probably, I feel like he’d have had better luck closer to release, I just think it’s retarded you can’t make an open lobby for trades with a request of what you want.
>>563545351>Makes her too good.It would, but exceptional intelligence is a trait shared by many adepts. Many powerful septima will boost intelligence and/or strength to superheroic levels. This is something that is mentioned in Fleeting Memories. One of the reasons why Kamizono hates adepts. Merak, Teseo, Zonda, Nova, ZED, Shiron, Kirin, Asroc, Gunvolt, Joule, and Mytyl all benefit from Septimal intelligence. It's how they justify the anime trope of the precocious anime teenager being an incredible savant who is cool under pressure and can be given far more responsibilities than he or she should ever be given, like say leading and organizing an international terrorist/revolutionary army, or leading the military wing of what is effectively your country.
>>563545715A lot of Gunvolt villains are>Please convince me I am wrong. I hate what I am doing, but I don't see a better way of fixing this problem.And then Gunvolt or Copen radicalizes them further to the dark side (usually by killing their friends or wrecking their stuff, but sometimes it's a bad argument or just being a dick to them) and then they have to kill them.
>>563546307On Nike, think GV will realize her visions were not delusions but the actual horrible truth?
>>563546986Definitely. That will be an interesting conversation.
>>563546307>It would, but exceptional intelligence is a trait shared by many adepts. Many powerful septima will boost intelligence and/or strength to superheroic levels.Something else stolen from Toaru, where Level 5 (highest level) espers are all geniuses with (slight) insanity issues due to the way esper powers work.
I just wonder when exactly the switch happened in the world, that made septima the norm.Since septima is both expected and yet private it has to have been long enough for a massive shift yet soon enough that it's not something you'd want others to know about.>>563548487It's a good trope, I like when settings play with nonsense completely straight.
>>563546697There is a point to be made that it is humanity's own treatment of Adepts that leads to many reactionary conflicts, but that is just perpetuating the cycle of abuse and justifying using their own personal pain as an excuse to inflict harm onto others or through some warped version of self preservation, you know, the thing GV is kinda against. Then you also have to consider the fact that the game takes place in the relative safety of Sumeragi controlled nippon, and that the outside world is a complete hellscape of societal collapse primarily due to adepts. The maltreatment is not completely unwarranted.And Cope didn't really do much of anything in the canon, it was all Gunvolt.
>>563547124It's not even allegorical, like "you'll be as a beast that destroys the world". Woman was just being literal.GV did actually turn into a monster that threatened to destroy the world. That's just what happened.
>>563549075True, but people sympathize too much with cute anime characters and want cute anime waifus.
>>563549612When you get to the several mass graves level it becomes indefensible.
>>563549075World was going down the shitter before adepts arrived on scene. There was a huge energy crisis, ecological collapse, and nations saber-rattling. Adepts might have ironically saved the world from nuclear Armageddon just because they shook everything up so much.
>>563549834>no no, anime burning down the world is GOOD because it just accelerates the end of the world!Yikes anon.
>>563544268>removed the heavy themes of xenophobia and prejudice from their flagship series>ruined the spinoff by turning it into shitty temu Zero but without being cool>killed all faith in their ability to make a metroidvaniaWhat can Inti even show at bitsummit to break the mold. The real kicker would be if they announced nothing at all. Then we can really start sing their praises.
>>563549340>Nike: So you have finally come this far Gunvolt... I am Nike—one of the G7 charged with protecting Belladen. For the sake of Pantera... and for the sake of our future, I must defeat you!>Nike: The stars whispered to me of your arrival.>GV: Stars? What are you talking about?>Nike: The stars reveal all. You are a shadow cast upon the future of our comrade, Panthera... If you are left unfettered... this world will surely be consumed by chaos... Unbridled and lawless... a dragon that disrupts the universe's order—that is precisely what you are... Gunvolt.>Joule: Don't listen to a word a woman like me says! You aren't that at all... You're an angel—to me, and to her... to Ouka!>Nike: Fairies have bewitched humans since ancient times… You and that fairy that bewitches you…… I shall put you two to sleep… For the sake of this planet… Gunvolt…Funny that they just played her off as insane for years.
>>563551464>Funny that they just played her off as insane for yearsWell, imagine if a Russian woman came up to you and said>The stars have whispered that in order to prevent the calamities of the future, we'll have to kill all the angels in the past
>>563551103Won't the xenophobia be back in GV4? In GV3, it's a lot more subtle, but still kinda there. ZED is an adept supremacist. Kirin is, no meme, a low key one too. She doesn't speak out against Eden's supremacist talk, vibes with Teseo, and responds positively to some of Asimov's ideals (specifically the bits about building a utopia for adepts). It's his methods she doesn't like.
>>563544708Precure has some good seasons
>>563550408I guess I'm an accelerationist them.
>>563549075Damn scrawny pipsqueak...
>>563550408>>563554964Reminder that Eden, the terroristic anime supremecist group, canonically had a significant fanbase among nonadepts because Teseo was actually pretty good at producing videos and Eden members were really hot. Like adult Zonda and Desna are meant to be the hottest girls in GV and get worshiped because they're so beautiful. Gibril is also insanely popular due to her embarrassing cosplay.

>Inti is sooner going to reset the timeline rather than explore the possibility of the overzealous adept slayer receiving the means to destroy all septimals through a Faustian bargain with a Chinese boy holding a pendant>just to keep some anime waifus alive because they're incapable of making any new good onesShuckaroos.
>>563558213>>just to keep some anime waifus alive because they're incapable of making any new good onesThat's not true, both Majogami and SoTD had a lot of 9 to 10 out of 10 waifus. Hell, the main problem with CnC is that we aren't allowed to talk much to any of the girls that's more interesting than Ancie like Rafaela of President Mori.
>>563558213GV1 and GV2 characters have these crazy interconnected backstories across games and multiple audio dramas, short stories, and a light novel. Like Elise's story incorporates Eden and Sumeragi members. It makes sense that INTI said they felt tapped out of ideas after GV2.
>>563558830>That's not true, both Majogami and SoTD had a lot of 9 to 10 out of 10 waifusSure. So good they didn't even need any fanart.
>>563551464Imagine if she said it as it was;>Lissten, you ate the soul of your crazy megalomaniac mentor and that has made you into a walking septimal energy Chernobil>You will corrupt and turn into a monster every other powerfull adept in the world who will in turn murder everybody else who did not manage to turn >Also that "thing" wispering intrussive thoughts into your head is a shard of Copen's sister, she is not a real person, it never was, not even when you saved "her" in that train>Also Sumeragi has a freaking alien in their basement that also has the power to end the world, we should go take care of that before we kill each other >Oh and somebody will give birth to another diva in the middle east that will look a lot like your friend Shantae that you meet in several crossover indie games, so yeah Saudi Arabia will become the world's next hegemony.
>>563559572But they still got it even if it's very damn rare.
>>563558213The possibility of Xiao and Copen teaming up to fuck over GV are not zero. Remember, one of the ways of preventing the end of the world is by killing Gunvolt. Going with the themes of the series and GV3's true end, this would be a bad end, but not the worst one. The best one, that leads to the wallpaper dimension, is GV surviving and saving the world through through the power of friendship or something (because septima obeys the laws of anime).
>>563353139Today I will leave this to remind all the anons here who still have hope that Capcom will not fuck up Megaman 12.
>>563559598>>Lissten, you ate the soul of your crazy megalomaniac mentor and that has made you into a walking septimal energy Chernobil>8-4 translated Armed Blue Spirits as AB Spirits>INTI translated Armed Blue Spirits as Azure Spirits>People in the West never made the connection between AB Spirits and Azure SpiritsIsn't that stupid?

>>563561019The septimosomes of dead adepts. Weak adept spirits dissipate immediately. Powerful dead adepts leave behind lingering spirits that start to emit a sort of magical radiation. It's all shrouded in mystery.>what is a septimosomeBasically, it's the gun that shoots the septima. The more septimosome the adept has, the stronger the adept. It's found in their blood, and it's why they look like anime characters. It's also why their blood glows, and they explode into light shows.Not much is known about septimosome. Through some unknown process, the septimosome may be drawn out into a glaive, thus sealing it from an adept. Powerful adepts may still use a portion of their power, however, even after being glaived. Either this is because they can overcome the seal in a limited fashion, or because the glaive can only hold so much septimosome before it overflows (the latter is supported by Nova's multiple seals).
>>563562905>the Love Live fag telling others when something is over
>>563563092They'd know the signs.
>>563562961>blood effects on killI forget how grim the first game was sometimes.
>>563562905Make INTI Great Again, right? Vidya companies are usually pretty recession proof though. Not completely, devs have to eat, but unless there is an apocalyptic crash, people don't stop buying games as they are a very good value proposition. Entertainment media in general tends to whether economic downturns well. In fact, the Golden Age of Film started right before the Great Depression kicked off.
>>563562905How's the crab fishing biz treating the Aqours?
>>563563278Now consider that Copen explodes when he dies as well, but he doesn't scatter into pretty septimosomes. It's just blood, gore and viscera when his suit detonates while he's stuck inside it, or it would be if the game was a little more edgy. Instead he just gets atomized.Makes you wonder how Anthem is supposed to bring that back. I guess it just werks.
>>563562961There's also two crafting items that are made out the septimosome paste harvested from lesser adepts and why some machines can make anime bullshit like the Rorotank. Imagine someone doing that with the Midichlorians in star wars.
>>563564634All of Copen's tech has adept blood running through it. Some of his technology is literally powered by the hearts of adept orphans.
>>563564656Now Lev has made me horny.
>>563564854Sounds like headcanons to me.
>>563562961>before and after septimosome infusionLook at Nova. He looks like a background character before he went adept. Just a completely normal kid, with completely normal hair and eyes.

>>563570696>Why is that?Where would you stick that? There would be no place to fit a bittersweet Zonda-Eden medley, because there is no story scene that treats them sympathetically within the game. This is by design. You are supposed to be hyped up to kill them at first, like Gunvolt and Copen. Other audio dramas that focus on villains also have their themes rendered sympathetically, sometimes even heroically. The contrast is greater with Eden, however.>INTI are sadistic.Yes.>The whole thing is constant whiplashing between comedy, heartwarming, and depression.

>>563580426>Classic GV character:>My dad was a nob who couldn't stand having an anime daughter. He beat me and my mother, giving me a sadomasochistic complex. It doesn't come up in game, so it's treated as a joke, but if you dig, the joke becomes recontextualized as something really fucked up. My mom loved me very much, but was a total pushover. I had to kill my dad when I was around 13 with my mom's own blood after he caved her skull in. Police arrested me, so I broke out, and wondered the streets. Eventually, some other fellow orphan adepts invited me to join their gang. They noted the lethality of my power, and pushed for increasingly violent crimes where I was their main bludgeon. I hated it at first, but grew to love the blood. I realized the gang only saw me as a weapon, not family, and I was in a self-loathing rut, so when Zonda came knocking, I agreed to join, but she had to give me a good fight first. Beaten, and lying on the ground, I began to laugh.And that's just the first part. Then it goes on and starts intersecting with other characters' stories. And then she saves a bunch of adepts from a pogrom. And then she gets trolled by Teseo. And then she infiltrates Sumeragi and has a team battle with the Sumeragi Seven while Asimov uses the chaos to sneak in QUILL. And then, she tries to cheer up an adept child and becomes an internet sensation while inspiring her leader to come up with a plan to create a utopia for adepts. And there are probably some short stories I am missing up there, and then she dies. Oh, and she only gets like 6 lines in the game proper.>GV3 character:>I traveled around training my muscles and looking for good fights.I really do like GV3 characters, they're a lot of fun, they get a lot of dialogue, they're active throughout the story, and the ATEMS members have some great team dynamics, but they are missing a lot of the spice from the classical characters.

Remember when GV3 was around the corner an everybody was thinking "oh boy, here comes China to show Sumeragi how proper anime crackdowns look like" and it would have worked as a big backhand compliment if all their bosses looked like Mihoyo chafacters.

>>563582972Aside from adepts now basically owning everything, there's a real lack of major change in GV3. For instance, let's look at the city. iX looks like time has passed. The adept inhabited areas of the city look sleeker and more futuristic while the rest of the city has been left to ruin. The setting has changed in meaningful ways at a glance. Meanwhile, GV3 doesn't look that many years ahead of GV2. The city still basically looks the same. Technology only looks slightly more sleek at best. Maybe a decade at most has passed.

It just turns Cope into even more of a loser.
>>563591668Just to have a soft reboot of the setting.
>>563591668Samefagging but I need to expand on this; I don't understand why they turned Cope into a clanker either. Like why? Why do this?Initially I liked the idea of Cope, I think it's important to have an ordinary human perspective in a series that is mostly about anime x-men and their aftereffects on society that isn't just>Oh Gunvolt is so hot I wish he'd fill me with his septimal manchowderbut making him a clanker just removes that aspect entirely. The minos' victory against Sumeragi and Demerzel cannot even be attributed to humanity as we've now just circled back to MMX/Z where reploids fix everything and humanity just sits around being useless and busting nuts against the wall. It's just so fucking lame and tone deaf, why would you even do this to your own creation.And I don't care that Kohaku came waltzing in to take the final shot post-credits after the Jobber Extraordinaire needed yet another bailout.Tai a shit, can't we get a new writer. And a new human character to play as well, I can't take this clown seriously anymore.

What you have are peacekeeper forces going on rampages with their machinery due to dragon radiation. Usually, they were there to contain rampaging adepts and assist in evacuations, then the radiation spreads too quickly past the barricade and pulls them in as well. It's not that military shit is just always there. There are also the temple laser traps, but both Kirin and Zed bring up the absurdity of those, so it's not seen as normal.>>563603178Rooftops.

Post genie butts
Inti doesn't have it in them to make a gacha. Not only can they not figure out a short gameplay loop, not only can they not design appealing characters anymore, but they also can't write a consistent story without the writer getting bored and giving up halfway through. In games that are, at best, 3 hours long.Strike three, you're out.

Most gachas don't have a premise besides look at this .png, you better waste money on it.
>>563606891>>Not only can they not figure out a short gameplay loop>CnC and PuzzmiXLol.>>not only can they not design appealing characters anymore>Majogami and SoTDYou might care, but nobody else does.Nikke's main story revolves around the Raptures and the Rapture Queen while also focusing on the politics happening in the Ark, and that's been following along nicely. Limbus is the one where you're, what, 3 years into the game and you still don't know why the fuck you're even collecting boughs or books or whatever the damn plot was.
>>563607401>Nikke's main story revolves around the Raptures and the Rapture Queen while also focusing on the politics happening in the Arkon 1 out of 20 events
>>563588972>>563584821I'm thinking that Zonda dying, GV eating Asimov's Azure Spirits, and Xiao getting the pendant were what locked in the bad ending. Think about it.First, Zonda had one of the best intuitive understandings of the internal workings of septima in Gunvolt. She figured out how the muse's power worked pretty quickly from Olga, created the grimoires, figured out that she was muse capable and came up with her plan to merge her septima with Mytyl's, and everything else. Like Nova has parallels to being copy-X, Zonda has many parallels to Ciel. Imagine how MMZ would have turned out with Ciel dying. She was also pointed out by Tsuda to be the Roll of Gunvolt (hilariously NOT Joule or Mytyl)The Azure (AB) Spirits thing is explained in game, so I don't need to reiterate it here. Asimov continues to fuck up GV from beyond the grave. Finally, Xiao, doing nothing is doing EVERYTHING. The pendant could have saved everyone, but he hid it.Also, Xiao's story doesn't add up. One of the big clues comes early on, when he says that Eden killed the mainland branch of QUILL. Yet Zonda and a couple of other Eden members speak glowingly of QUILL. Zonda's only issue is that their methods don't save adepts quickly enough. Finally, Nori specifically asked Xiao if he would give the pendant to Eden. This question seems to be absurd on the surface. He just spent the entire game killing them all, even whipping up GV's bloodlust when GV started yearning for some sort of less-violent strategies or resolution, unless you do some detective work.Shortly before the events of the first game, one of the G7 died under mysterious circumstances. This is brought up in a few of the drama tracks. A lot of people think "dead guy" may have been Xiao. Xiao's powers are also implied to be something about time from all the design ques, artwork, and design books, which would make Nori's dialogue much more sensical.

>>563584527Mainline GV's timeskip is not supposed to be as long as iX's anyway. Even then the technology and enemies are radically different whereas in iX they just look like slightly upgraded GV1 enemies.
>>563607903Gunvolt's script is really weird in the characters talk and act like the most bombastic 90s shōnen anime characters, but the script can still be pretty subtle. People say that because of the first, the latter can't exist. There are no meanings to be found between the lines. Characters will just state what they are feeling. Important details will be shown clearly in text. But then GV3 comes out and confirms a lot of what people thought the text of the older stuff might be implying.

Why would she call those goals noble, and later, beautiful?>>563608141>>563608386Cloudflare shitting the bed.
>>563607401I care, Majogami had some excellent designs that I really liked (Shiroha, Louise, Karma) and a great story. Loved the vocal tracks as well. I don't want them making a gacha though.
>>563608842Dunno if she's referring to Quill's stated purpose or the hidden supremacist agenda Asimov injected into the organization. Quill's primary goal was to free adepts from Sumeragi. I think the coexistence stuff gets read into the organization because of Gunvolt, Moniqa, and Zeno's views and because they grew out of human rights groups, which usually push for coexistence and tolerance.
>>563609293And I bet you're the only one that does. Majogami's designs are awful.
>>563610440I'm not the anon that initially replied to you so clearly I'm not the only one. I don't know what crawled up your ass but the game had some good art.
>>563610084I don't think she knew that QUILL existed to create the adept reich. Specially since she and EDEN didn't join Sumeragi's minos genocide in the iX timeline.
>>563610773I disagree, it didn't have 'some' good art. That was one of the main talking points when the game was first revealed: Just how awful it looked both in gameplay and in general.The designs are too busy, there's not a clear focal point, it's just a mishmash of random elements in bright colours that all vie for attention. As it is, It unironically looks like Natsume was on shrooms when he made this game. He should've toned down complexity and favored readability some more.Look at this shit, it's a mess. It's on the same level as Xenoblade 2 Rex and FFT Luso Clemens. It's right at home in the "lets all make fun of glaringly bad JRPG designs and it's very funny" joke threads on /v/.

>>563611518That's a lot of words to say "I don't like thing". Okay, cool, it's not for you then. And no, I don't remember people trashing stuff like the actual character designs when it was revealed, just that there's a lot of visual effects going on in combat which makes it hard to read (which is true somewhat). As for the Louise portrait you posted, it fits with the fairy tale nonsense book world concept just fine. It's not a mishmash of elements and is obviously going for "shark" and "mermaid" themes. It's not meant to be some grounded realistic design and it's nowhere near as busy as something like FFT Luso.

>>563613149>Majogami was what Inti chose to be their 30th anniversary projectCitation needed. Also, their 30th anniversary is this year.
>adept slayer no longer kills adeptsHow would you have fixed Connect iX? As much as they half-assed it, I'm surprised they remixed the music. It also makes a lot of lore sense to me that Copen would have an easier time with bosses but struggle more in the preceding stages when compared to other characters.
>>563613149The worst part is how Majogami isn't even that bad and is rather fun at times.
>>563611901I wonder what sort of insane headcanons this place gets up to during a release cycle. What sort of schizoid fanon would people have come up with if pictures like >>563613430 and pic related leaked with no context before the announcement of GV3?
>>563613376>Regarding the game being the company's official 30th anniversary title, on June 4th 2025 it was stated there were a few games in development that were candidates for the distinction, and at that time it was difficult to say which one would receive it since schedules had to be met.[7] Why Majogami was chosen and what game(s) it was competing with haven't been revealed yet.https://inti.miraheze.org/wiki/Majogami#cite_note-7
>>563611901I gave up on reading the same every two months and many other things since last year that just keep making everything worseOr maybe i just gave up on everything waiting for something interesting to happenSuch is life
>>563613149I still say that Umbraclaw and GV3 did way more damage.
>>563613594so frankly. it's only the anniversary title because it was finished at the correct time
>>563613482Is this sunk cost fallacy or a lack of standards?
>>563613430Connect iX plays fine, it just needed more stages and maybe Merciless difficulty (although Copen would probably still shred through Merciless bosses).
>>563613556Just off of those images? We'd be meming about Copen being Batman since he apparently didn't kill the adept and we'd be hyping ourselves up for a mercy run, Gunvolt being a Sumeragi sellout with a weird glaive or that they'd reused aspects of the rejected badguy Gunvolt plot, and Elise being back or Xiao manipulating time to bring back enemies.
>>563613646Umbraclaw is the most damming thing Inti has ever done. It's a game who has all it's core mecanics made to suck the fun out of the game itself, yet it was not done with monetization in mind like all the other games who have done that before.
>>563613430Just add some dialogue and end stages. That's about it.
How does anybody still care about Gunvolt?I believe half of it is Galgunfags who hope their series gets thrown a bone every now and then
>>563613430It's hard to fix anything about Copen as he's pretty much just a gag now. I guess I wouldn't have made him playable to begin with. Just the fact that he spared Kirin after she attacked him unprovoked like an unhinged psycho was already preeeetty stupid. That's how all the falcons met their end, he has no reason to spare anyone.I would turn him into the game's undisputed EX boss. I'm not convinced AT ALL that this guy is as powerful as Tai likes to think he is, especially not with how he feels in gameplay. So show it to me, Tai, without any constraits and janky gameplay and EMPTY. Show me just how powerful he's supposed to be now.
>>563613646What was so bad about GV3? It unironically gave the fans everything they wanted by bringing back their waifus, but the fans were too dumb to realize what it was doing, and the gameplay was some of the best sidescrolling action in years.>>563614396Sparing Blade and the months of peace after iX1 changed something in him.
>>563614324Because of Zonda, Copen, Roro, Elise, Gibril, Isola, Stella and Zed in that order. The once beautyful work of art lies in pieces on the ground and you can't help but wonder what could have been.I still hold Inti as one of the 3 developers who can still get me interested in something alongside Imagine And Form and HAL.
>>563614520The story was shit and revolved around a deus fetus machina, being wholly alien in plot and tone to the preceding entries all because Tsuda read the new Locke arc.It's like if Starforce 4 was set a hundred years after 3 and other than omegaxis making the odd reference here and there to SF1, 2, and 3 there's nothing else about it.
>>563614520>It unironically gave the fans everything they wanted by bringing back their waifusThose were not the fans. The fans wished for a proper ending to a story so bleack and unique, not a half assed chicked out. It killed the flagship series for a reason.>Sparing Blade and the months of peace after iX1 changed himYou don't know that, he acts exacly the same on iX2Man this lag in posts is getting horrible if you post more than once every hour.
>>563614520>It unironically gave the fans everything they wanted by bringing back their waifus, but the fans were too dumb to realize what it was doingI'll believe it when I see it. Next up is more iX vs. The Universe.
>>563614324Nah, everyone knows Gal Gun is dead in the water, which is funny when you think about those people who still think Inti are some kind of rebels against the system because they make some ever so slightly lewd official art to sell at a premium while their actual ecchi offering rots in its grave.
>>563614574Where does GV fit in there?>>563614520GV3 made me care a lot more for GV than I did in past games. His anime autism is cute in GV3 instead of cringe and he's likable instead of making me pissed. I liked his character development better in the third game. In the past games he flops between being a good boy to being edgy. Like he will see a villain with a sad backstory and who will say some depressing shit as they die and he will taunt them or say an angry "badass" one-liner back, which is pretty shit.
>>563614324I prefer iX But then everything is "aaaiiiieee it's not the same as geevee , they ruined EVERYTHING"But there has been a serious lack of scifi since 2023, relegated to "a vr card game and never ever settings", "a 3 level+boss area", and "a mechanical castle boss" It's been more isekai/fantasy/ than robots ever since 2022
>iX3>through the shenanigans of a certain baka cupid, Copen is sent back in time to Sakurachi Academy where demons are once again causing havoc. He's fighting demons when a fateful meeting takes place. Copen will join the Kamizono sisters to form an unstoppable trio powered by an unshakeable belief, and also try to avoid the incestuous awkwardness when the headstrong Shinobu takes a strange fixation with himThere. I'm ready for my two boxes of Kumamoto ramen, Aizu.
>>563614758>>563614806The sudden swerve is all GV2's fault. INTI hated how bleak and depressing it was, especially when combined with the side material. The staff really didn't like the "bittersweet" ending, probably why GV3 ends up treating GV2 as a complete downer. Even for Gunvolt, moments like Pantera's death goes from a righteous display of vengeance against ultimate evil to "I crushed a little girl's dreams of utopia and murdered her" between games. They had no idea where to follow up on the plot hooks it left dangling. GV1 and GV2 are intimately connected, with the most fleshed casts (see >>563582282). The characters between both games crossover heavily into each other's stories, and feel the most like they exist in the setting. INTI has said before that they feel like they can't top these characters, and now that they're all dead, so where do they go? They go back.
>>563615067>Like he will see a villain with a sad backstory and who will say some depressing shit as they die and he will taunt them or say an angry "badass" one-liner back, which is pretty shit.That's called a character flaw. It makes a character more interesting and realistic. It provides something for a character to overcome or be destroyed by. It's something that most of you zoomers don't seem to understand.
>>563614904Any chance of iX3 dropping GV4 crumbs like iX2 showed off Kirin and Morb?
>>563616027no it's having your character being an unlikable schizophrenic faggot because consistency is hard. stop glazing inti writing, they're not that deep
>>563602513She looks confident in >>563573285, but I don't buy it.
>>563616506In >>563564656, rather.Also god damn, what's going on with the site? Captcha takes ages to load and posts take forever to go through.
>>563616630The Levcenters in Levrael was Lev'd, that's why Levchan is running slewLev.
>>563616429It's very consistent. Due to Asimov's indoctrination, Gunvolt is very good at compartmentalization. There's DorkVolt, who is a pretty swell guy. He's compassionate and doesn't like violence. He's a big softie. Then there's the Azure Striker, who is cold as ice. And Gunvolt can flip between the two as needed. Gunvolt will dehumanize his enemies. It's very obvious with Elise's encounter and how he turns on a dime with her, from maximum sympathy to annoyance. You could also look at the Eden encounters where he is mostly unphased when he hears some of their backstories. As the games go on, the barrier between his two personas starts breaking down, which is what leads to a lot of his angst. Finally, there's the Berserker, who usually appears in the final stages, when somebody harms Joule. This is the Gunvolt who says that he will show no mercy, even if asked, everyone is going to die.INTI writing is good enough. It's not deep, but it's interesting and justifies itself.
>>563616319Maybe. I imagine the reason it's taken so long for another iX game to come out is because they ran out of bad ends and old concepts to recycle.
>>563615067>Where does GV fit in there?GV fits in everyone there.
>>563618106Perfect Zonda response.
Of the villains, Zonda has the most fanatical fans and the most fanart, yet she's always loosing in the polls. Even in her own game, Gibril took the number one spot. What explains the discrepancy?
>>563619398>>563611901
>>563619398Mexicans love redheads. Personaly, I blame Iori for that.
>>563619398We're all based and Gibrilpilled, even the Zondafags. Her gap moe is just way too damn cute.>my smol hot-headed English rose can't be this cute
>>563617135>Finally, there's the BerserkerThat's known is his GOLAAAAAAZOOOOOOOO!!!! personality, when his Brazilian blood takes full control, outside of that you got everything right.>2 minutes wasted per post Someone needs money more than Inti does.
INTI world building is:>okay, so how do we justify the anime cliche of 14 year olds in important positions of power/authority.>most adepts are minors, as Gunvolt's generation are the first to have adepts born in significant number; before then, adepts were very rare>their superpowers sometimes give them superhuman competence and intelligence which normalizes adept teens doing important job>the world is mostly anarchic wastelands or cyberpunk dystopias, so child labor is normalized>because many powerful adepts are so intelligent, they just test out of school, subverting the anime school tropes you would expect INTI to fall forBreaks down in GV3 though, since by that point, you should have enough adult adepts where children aren't being employed over adults unless they have very useful abilities, and they'd be closely supervised, not in positions of authority. Ironically, iX got it better here, where all the important adepts are in their 20s and 30s.
>>563620293Iran blew up some Cloudflare architecture in Tel Aviv or something.
>>563620336>where all the important adepts are in their 20s and 30sNot all of them. Isola was just 17, and she only managed to hold her important position for a day before the jaded 114 year old man in a body resembling a 14 year old boy came along to end her entire career, then go home to raise a handful of other men's children.I guess 17 is still better than 14.
>>563613430>It also makes a lot of lore sense to me that Copen would have an easier time with bosses but struggle more in the preceding stages when compared to other characters.There's something really funny and loreful about the peacekeepers giving Copen a harder time than the primordial dragons. His kit is built to take on adepts, not missiles, guns, and tanks. Those lock on projectiles and missiles were the bane of my existence in Connect iX, whereas with Kirin, it's as easy as a deflect.
>>563621146That's because the absolute moron lost stellar spark & flashfield when he downgraded. Along with ruining the most overpowered Sci-fi gun in existence and turning it into a pizzacutter.
>>563621113Even with Isola it makes sense since she's more for propaganda. She takes her chief for a day jobs seriously, but it's just to boost workplace morale and make a propaganda piece for the population. You know, hot idol showing off Sumeragi stuff. She has handlers doing crap too.
>>563619398Anon come on, short angry submissive redhead who's a cosplaying nerd with a tragic backstory that activates the protection protocol in your brain. Gibril is just expertly designed.
>>563620435Is that why 4x2chan is down too?
>gap moe is just way too damn cute>tragic backstory that activates the protection protocol in your brainThat applies equally well to Zonda. Hell, you even want to give Nova a hug if you go through his side material.
>>563622223Zonda's gap isn't as wide. And neither of them can match Elise.
>>563622223Tiny angry tomboy is just extremely fookin kyute mate whadya expec', proper lush man it's mental.
>>563622778To be fair, Elise is peak.
>>563622778Have you listened to Eden's Party? It's pretty big. In the game, she's mysterious and sinister. She always keeps her cool, always has a plan, and is willing to sacrifice anything to achieve it. She seems completely unapproachable. You can't imagine her being human. In EP? Almost the complete opposite. She can be warm, she can joke around, she can be naive and too trusting when topics outside her comfort area come up, and she can be childish (like dramatically narrating activities out loud to annoy Gibril).
>>563621394Funny thing is that Ancie is supposed to be their ultimate otaku cathcher waifu and she's very behind Gibril, Zonda and Elise.
>After 10 fucking years, somebody finally fixed Pantera's wiki page, adding the stuff from the Side Material and listing 8-4's vandalismFucking finally. Thank you, anon. I know it was one of you guys. All the misinformation about how she was a sociopath who didn't give a shit about the G7 from the butthurt shitter who couldn't stand she wasn't bigender did so much damage to her perception.>>563611901It's because of Arcana Shadow.
>>563620435Oh, so it's the ratty's fault but they are going to pin it on the servbots?
Say Z Two~
>>563622778>>563623180Elise in her story is about the same as the one in the game, just better put together because she hadn't been tortured. She's shy and depressed, but not a barely held together wreck moments away from tears. The domme side is a persona she puts on during gaming and isn't so murderous either.
6 hours 45 minutes of Z2
>>563621146>>563613430The only adept who gave me more issues as Copen than Kirin was ZED, which also works really well from a lore perspective, since ZED is just nuclear GV, and Copen always loses to GV.
