that would be irony if the "anime-inspired" stuff included parts from Hamtaro

Lol...Yeah i view the new anime costumes as a curse.
I will be sure to avert my eyes when I see pokemon or pikachu on screen. Can't they at least update their animation style from 20 years ago? Akira and Vampire hunter D are 10 times better than most of the crap folks today like in anime.
I do need to check out the ghoststalker series.

what am i doing here??? i started of in technical issues, bounce to jerk-hacking off a link there and ended up having statesmen tell me to kill skuls! very dark times indeed.

i did read enough to think I should defend anime a bit though, watch anything from studio ghibli, and tell me its crap then.

Yeah, but in order to be PC it will have to say "Go. Hunt. Arrest Skuls."

I'm not objective to the costumes.
I just don't want to see any huge heads with x's for eyes and a massive mouth. And sweat beads.

And how exactly does that classify as "costumes"?

And there are TWO development teams within Cryptic - one on City of Heroes and one on City of Villains.

[/ QUOTE ]

So, is this still the case, or did the City of Heroes development team get laid off after Issue 5?

Jay Doherty: Yes, there was this one night that I was ready to go home but had to drop the browns off at the super bowl before I left for home. While on the throne it hit me. I stayed for a few more hours and that why we have the pain pads in the game.

I didn't like asparagus and my grandmother assured me that I'd like it if I just tried it.

Its 25 years later and I still don't like asparagus yanno.

I know it's asking waaaaay late in the thread, but I've still gotta ask...

Did you ever get around to actually trying it?

We've been saving Paragon City for eight and a half years. It's time to do it one more time.

Regarding the anime costumes debate that is.

You take a fairly divisive issue like adding anime costume options.

You get people that are not very pleased with the idea and say so.

And almost everyone that responds in support of the idea has an avatar from an anime series.

"Oh just have some faith, you might like it." "Oh you just haven't seen good anime."

Blah blah blah. I mean really, I've been hearing this style of argument since I was like....4 and I didn't like asparagus and my grandmother assured me that I'd like it if I just tried it.

So I guess what I'm saying here is its great that some people are getting what they want. But the whole "Just try it, you'll like it" argument isn't very fair. Its 25 years later and I still don't like asparagus yanno.

Its not very considerate to tell people that they're "lucky to be getting anything at all." when your greatest wish has been granted.

Its sort of like gloating. Really.

Anyways, back to the game.

The thing about 90% of anime is that it is based off a manga. Manga being japanese for comic. Therefore anime style costumes are really originally from comics. Then there's the fact that all modern anime style was originally inspired by old US cartoons like Betty Boop, Mickey Mouse and the like evolving to the style we see today.

Sad part is people can already make ninjas, power rangers, school girls, school boys. Other than samurai the rest of the costume pieces introducted should be pretty unique.

What I think is funny is that some people who hate anime and call it cartoons(bugs bunny) or porn, still watch stuff like Justice League or the X-men(The uncanny X-men on fox rocked).

I tend to think that for the people who generally like comics and stuff but hate anime, the main reasons would be
a. that they can't relate to it very well(cultural and comedy), which is normal considering that it's from across the pacific. #1 reason.

b. are nationalist(ei if it ain't from the US it's bad) tend to be rare

c. just can't watch 26 episodes of continual story. where as with Justice league you can miss a few episodes and still get the story.

d. Grew up with the x-men, JL, spiderman,etc and have a exclusive harcore following.

On to a different aspect, people can already make almost carbon copies of most heros in DC and Marvel, where else would the dev team get inpiration from?

In a business sense The devs would go for anime pieces to apeal to the asian region market. Main reason imo.

btw my avatar was made from the Novel-game Fate/Stay Night, which the anime only came out resently after the manga and what not.

Hadn't posted a resonse this long in a while. Wonder if the test patcher is done updating..
