That helped, though in this case the specific thing I was doing wrong was not attacking the boss quickly enough. I tended to leave him until I had cleared off all the grunts, which took a few turns, and I didn't realize that the reinforcements showing up were tied to attacking him. I thought it was just automatically scripted to halfway through the battle. Once I got the reinforcements going earlier it was easy to clear them up and then use my own reinforcements to take down the boss.

Theres a fantastic playthrough on NicoNico. Let me know if you want the link.

His name is actually Bullet, but that's not nearly as funny.

Also "Let's have a countdown to announce another countdown" is the best.

EDIT:

Somebody took the time to make an amazing sprite and a new background, but couldn't be assed to draw a portrait.

Aside from GaogaiGar, I want to see Xenogears and/or Xenosaga.

They've already had Kos-Mos in OG Saga, it's not that much of a stretch.

Xenogears is probably the easiest one of the three to do in SRW, since it's pretty much Turn A Xabungle to my limited knowledge. Xenosaga has the anime though and in general is easier for licensing purposes, even if the setting isn't the easiest to slot in since it's super deep space travel stuff and it absolutely would need to be the core of the plot to work out.

Xenoblade pretty much doesn't work because what Bionis and Mechonis even are is very shrouded in mystery and mythology and aside from them it's just a bunch of teenagers with anime weapons. But the sequel definitely has robutts in it as far as we can see, and may well work out. We have no idea for sure though since it's not out. :v:

I'd be okay with that. Valvrave and E7AO in SRW is gonna be hilarious.

Plus they'll almost certainly cut the stupid-rear end rape plot out of Valvrave.

IIRC they kind of left it in Dancougar Nova. It got like two lines but it's pretty clear that still happened.

Turn A shows up and everyone spontaneously returns to calling it the Black History. This is never acknowledged or explained.

Sol Gravion, who is already solar (because dwi), just cuts Space Satan in half, derailing the entire end of Gigantor.

I'm pretty sure it's just this one-off joke where the mechanic gets drunk and jumps Sakuya because of a dumb misunderstanding. There's no subplot or anything.

e: not suggesting it is a good joke

I was about to say, I didn't remember that at all.

It's kiiiinda different in Valvrave. More importantly it literally makes no sense with the plot at all so cutting it changes almost nothing.

Wasn't that how the Boost Knuckle happened? Sakuya went up the engineer all 'augh I feel useless in battle' and she did inappropriate things to him, and then Dancougar got a rocket punch. IIRC it was largely offscreened but it was still some sketchy poo poo.

...Its been a while since I watched the scene, but I thought it was one of those things were other parts of the cast overheard and thought the two were going at it, but in reality Sakuya was just geeking out over the fact he now had a rocket punch?

Wasn't Savers the one where the main digimon's super form had like the shittiest super weapon that never worked?

I also seem to recall this ridiculous animation goof up in like a team-up special or something where he's supposed to have punched a big digmon into two others, but actually just punched it into one while the other one flew in to the pile to join the fun.

I can only assume we're going back to Tengen Toppa Universe for the final battle so everyone can be at full power. Maybe if Xabungle comes back for the finale along with everything else we'll get to see it.

Did it for ya. Yeah, its one of those 'meant to sound like one thing, actually another' cases, though the scene by itself would certainly seem tricky. The thing is, the gag is that what she's talking about is developing the weapon, and the two female pilots (can't remember their names immediately) walked in to find Sakuya in the simulator whilst Seimy was running the test programme. I imagine it'd be harder to tell in a purely text format with a SRW game.
