Hahaha, Naruto is one of the biggest series Shonen Jump has ever had. It's not becoming public domain anytime soon.

Yeah, I meant to frame it in a way that's just 'man it'd be cool if this happened' not that I was expecting it to work out that way.

You guys mentioned that Bee uses 7 swords, and I can't let that go by without a picture of how Bee actually wields those things.

Killer Bee is the one of the best things to happen in Shippuden. Especially his :airquote:story:airquote: in UNS Generations.

As for the Narutoke Up! contest, since there were only two entries (that weren't from friends/co-commentators) and both of them were cool, I thought I might as well give you both a prize! So, Level Seven and Shadow225, tell me if you want a new avatar/forums upgrade/whatever or if you'd like one of the Ultimate Ninja Storm games for Steam. Dattebayolo!

I've yet to get the platinum upgrade so that works for me. Thanks for rewarding the creations of puns that shouldn't have been made.

Not a single sword held in his hand, not one.

In combat Bee basically switches between spinning like a ball and juggling the swords while kicking, grabbing and throwing them with whatever is available. It really is a kind of weaponized break dancing and you should all watch the video because it's just wonderful to see in motion.

I've watched the video and I don't think the animation is good enough to do such a fighting style justice - after he assumes the stance it's almost all blurs and/or whirls. Also that trick with Suigetsu's sword was funny, but it really didn't make sense. The actual animation in the game seems better than in the anime (barring the occasional switch in style, like in the Pain fight), so if they really end up reusing the fight hopefully it'll look better, too.

Thanks for the LP. It was nice to catch up on one of my teenage interests, made more bearable with puns. I'll take archives, if that's cool with you. Also, I think you may have gotten my reference slightly wrong, but who's counting.

His story mode is basically the only noteworthy thing in Generations, mostly because of the cutscenes.

That said, I never really liked Killer Bee much. If one of the non-Naruto jinchuriki was going to survive, I'd much rather it had been Fuu (I think the seven-tails' design is probably the best one, it would have been nice to see a female character actually matter for once, and she seems so drat likeable if you play as her)

This might be too much work for little reward, but would you be willing to make a video of all of the characters' special moves and Jutsus? Simply [Combo 1, Combo 2,...,Throw, etc.] many of them have been already shown in the videos, but I don't think all, and it'd nice to have a single video like that. Granted, I don't know how much work that would entail. This time I've read through the first two posts and I'm reasonably sure I didn't miss such a video!

I can actually send your thing through PM so I'll take care of that once this post goes up.

Thankfully, someone else has already taken care of it, at least for Jutsus and Ultimate Jutsus! That video should show off all the characters including the Tekken character we talked about once. It shows off all the Awakening animations too, even!

Despite being the world's first anime podcast, we have yet to attempt the iTunes setup. For now it's just mp3s hosted off of archive.org and some sorta janky RSS feed, but sooner or later we should be better set up in terms of hosting and all that.

Lars Alexandersson is a Tekken character. The Naruto author designed an alt costume for him and so he made a special appearance in the game.

It's really weird that they wouldn't put in the thing about Killer B getting away in the story. I think from what I remember from the abandoned UNS3 LP, Killer B's next appearance is totally out of the blue and he's totally fine. Guess the story didn't want to ruin that "Wow isn't Sasuke cool" ending.

It really feels like an afterthought where they needed to throw in something extra for doing the sidequests, but then didn't go through the whole scene. I mean Killer B is still rad so it's nice to see more of him but they could've at least showed his escape.

The only good Bleach games in my experience are the DS fighting games. Soul Carnival for the PSP was alright too.
