[It's amazing, really. Brings to mind things like Sleigh BELLs.

A picture of Orrin Neville-Smythe? We're friends now. You might not know it, but we're friends now.

What's that, no one's discussing the best action anime in the past few years


I, Dio, will correct this error!

Jojo's Bizarre Adventure! The animation is gorgeous, the action is amazing, the characters are insanely over-the-top, and holy shit, the music. This is the best show I've seen in ages. Part 1 is a little weird to get through (hyper-Victorian vampire action!), but when you hit Part 2, the show goes off the rails into awesomeville.

Also, there's a specific group that is handling the subs better than just about everyone else, as it's being done by giant fans of the series. Get on it, guys.

Have there been other Ninja Gaiden 2 NES protos aside from the "sample 32" carts?

Also I'm looking to complete the trilogy in protos, I have the third but if you have the first or second please let me know.

Hey there, and welcome to the forum.

I think you're looking in the wrong place -- this thread (and forum!) is generally focused on researching content in games and prototypes we already have. If you look on the wiki itself, you'll find that we even have articles on Ninja Gaiden 1 and 2! But alas, no prototypes. I'd love to look through one myself -- the incomplete localization in NG1 is pretty interesting!

Also: your avatar is really big. You might want to resize it or choose a smaller one, because that thing is a table-breaking monster. :x

Fake moral outrage.

Legit moral outrage: A poorly-balanced 10-year-old party game is going to be a main-stage EVO game while a -for real- fighting game under active development that is still making money is relegated to a side stage. It's really, really annoying.

Also, with all of that money to breast cancer research, why not have the game with the most breasts win? :p

Is that worthy of an article?

If I'm not mistaken, you can't play as Red Arremer or Athena in the AES version of SvC: Chaos. You can use the sub-bosses (Goenitz, Orochi Iori, Dan, Violent Ken, Mars People, Demitri, Geese, and Zero), and in the AES version only, you can use Shin Akuma and Serious Mr. Karate. You -can't- use Athena and Red Arremer, but I believe they have a fully playable moveset, which is unusual. So, yes, I'd say that's probably worthy of an article, as you can only use them normally in the PS2 and Xbox versions of the game.

the first one: "mufufu" is sort of a... lecherous chuckle, from what I'm getting, so I'm not sure how to do this one justice.
It's a book called... "A surprise for the laughing maiden." (TOTAL GUESSLATION AHOY)
I... think I might wanna take a look at this one.

Second one:
A book called... "The beginning of shameless perversion."
...I guess the sage (賢者様 - kensha-sama, "sage" with an honorific) is a bit of a lech.

I think ムフフ is an interjection rather than an adjective, so that'd make it something like "Mufufu, A Surprise for the Maiden".

There is a real book that goes by that title, although it's written slightly differently: むふふ娘にドッキリ

---

Wow. I didn't think to google it, nor did I think "oh yeah, interjection". >>;; whoops.

As much as I'd love not to ruin the mystery (...or rewrite historyyyyy), I can say with confidence there is no such ending in the game

Just after I posted on the Wayforward facebook, too. D: So much sadness.
