No Global info yet, but JP got the NY banner. Its 3 full rounds so 600 stones and the LRs go up to GT Trio. They also changed the steps.

EZA > 120 Super/Extreme > Super Category > Extreme Category > LR

Bracing for the Global shaft/inevitable disappointment compared to this crazy thing

Never had this issue, but this topic got me to notice just now nice the logo actually is. Looks a lot nicer in black ink

I wonder what anime would be put into the graph if you replaced the series that started before 2010.

Nah we should totally shit on anyone who watched Shippuuden

Well we should find out around 7pm-1:30am if we are getting a special New Years banner

Only if you use their curbside service and they Sonic Run your food to you imo

Heard he got 74% of the vote. Surprised it was so low

Oda Cinnamon Nobunaga - what if Nobunaga and friends were dogs the anime. Goddamn I bet Nobunaga is rolling in his grave with how often anime insults him

Uchitama?! Uchi no Tama Shirimasenka? - aka cat and dog boys no thanks

Zenonzard 2 - hot sequel to the show youve never heard of and nobody watched

Show by Rock 2 - more idols and animal girls

Breakers - quite possibly one of the most interesting things Ive seen an anime do. Its about athletes who all have some form of physical disability competing in various sporting events.

Healin Good PreCure - PreCure season 7,204

ARP! Backstage Pass - more like Id literally prefer to watch an anime about the AARP

Youkai Watch Jam - some YW anime

A Destructive God Sits Next To Me - Comedy series where the MC acts as a straight man to his chuu2 classmate. Seems like all the characters are guys.

22/7 - Digital idol and voice actor project about the creation of the group. Ehh sounds like a pass.

Hatena Illusion - magician comedy anime thats probably better than Magical Sempai or whatever it was called, but probably still wont be worth watching

Come Together! to the Seton Academy - comedy series where there are less humans than any other creature even though the animal girls look 99% human anyways.

Housekisho Richard-shi no Nazo Kantei - sounds so boring I didnt even bother to look for the English title lmao

I'd Die If the One I Support Makes It to the Budkan - idol anime where a girl is so obsessed with an idol...well you get the title. If it is yuri that might be nice, but otherwise I dont really think I care about idol anime #9979279260

number24 - aka pretty boy rugby sounds like an easy pass

A3! Spring & Summer - pretty boy male theater anime zzzzz

Ehh I wouldnt make fun of somebody for using a rewind feature or anything. A lot of those older games are tough and also just have weirdness to them where it looks like you should have grabbed that ledge you jumped towards, but your body phased through it for some reason or you hit jump and it just didnt register or whatever else

I dont think I specifically used unpolished though others did and I didnt exactly disagree when they said it, but I do feel the game was unfinished. I guess this just wasnt the game I thought it was gonna be in my first 10~ or so hours. It just feels like they took the most bare minimal approach with everything that wasnt wandering around the vast empty world. If it was actually exciting I might not have minded quite as much...

Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken! - girls who want to make anime, but uh yikes the pics on anichart make the art style look really unappealing.

I Hate Getting Hurt, so I Put All My Skill Points Into Defense - or something like that is the title. Its yet another anime set in a virtual world this season, but at least the heroine is cute even if she also kinda looks like she stole Mashs style.

Orphen Remake - I dont know anything about this series, but it sounds decent enough based on the description. Magic, dragons, swords, whats not to like.

Kuutei Dragons - and now heres a series where people fly around on airships so they can hunt and eat dragons.

BanG Dream S3 - Will there ever be a season without an idol anime before I die? Probably not

Smile Down the Runway - Main girl wants to be a fashion model, but everyone says shes too short. She wont give up though even though she tells a male classmate who wants to be a fashion designer that its impossible for him. Wow youd think she would show some sympathy for someone else who has a dream related to hers...

Your argument kinda just sounds like you don't personally like the game but you're trying to call it unpolished and unfinished in order to argue it's objectively bad for some reason

Thats not how I mean for it to come off and I dont think its a bad game. It just couldve been so much more. The main quests are short and few in number.

There is such heavy emphasis on freedom and exploration that I feel like it came at the cost of everything else because the plot is weak with lots left up to your imagination and nearly all of the characters are one note and forgettable.

They just put you in this massive world and give you no reason to care about the cast or story in it and because a lot of the exploration is terrible (imo of course) its just something I felt was a lacking experience all around.

Darwins Game - dude enters the world of a game app where there are life and death stakes. Never seen that before right.

Dorohedoro - This actually sounds interesting, but watch it be Amazond or something. Definitely gotta check out a series where a dude has a reptile head and chomps people.

Toilet-bound Hanako-kun - Uh I dont really know what to expect of this. Im slightly familiar with Hanako-san, but thats about it. Looks like its a comedy so I usually give those a shot.

Science Fell in Love, So I Tried to Prove It - Two scientists love each other and try to solve the theory of love through science in this comedy that is Amazond.

Infinite Dendrogram - VR MMO anime. It took the MC 2 years to buy the game so it must have cost a fortune. Will probably fill the generic fantasy game void SAO leaves until it comes back for people.

ID: Invaded - another virtual world anime. This one is at least a mystery with a detective trying to solve a murder, but will it be good enough to be worthwhile? Well see.

Ishuzoku Reviewers - Beauty truly is in the eye of the beholder! From elves to succubi to cyclopes and more, the Yoruno Gloss reviewers are here to rate the red-light delights of all manner of monster girls...The only thing is, they can never agree on which species are the hottest! This is some good sounding shit right here man. I cant believe it has taken this long for which fantasy race/monster girl is the hottest? the anime.

Koisuru Asteroid - Cute girls doing astronomy and geology club stuff. It almost sounded like it had a boy to ruin it, but nope.

swordz9s Winter Anime Write-ups the why do I still do these when I barely ever watch anime edition

Haikyuu S4 - hell yeah finally more volleyball boys. I dont think I ever watched any of the OVAs I think it has, but I probably should huh? Anyways excited its coming back.

Railgun S3 - fuck yes the Misaka show is back. If Haikyuu wasnt also this season Id say AotS for sure.

Magia Record - Boy am I glad Shaft isnt doing anything worthwhile :(

pet - This was on a list before, but I guess it never came out yet and Im not doing another write-up.

Plunderer - If your count reaches 0 (and it can be a count of anything apparently) you get sent into the abyss. Its an action series so Ill probably at least check it out or so I claim.

Somali to Mori no Kamisama - I feel like I did this one before too, but whatever. Maybe it all just seems the same to me now. Humans are almost extinct and a human girl meets a golem and they travel together like father & daughter. Please dont let the golem want to fuck her. Japan has a bad problem with that when making these kinds of stories.

In/Spectre - The picture of this gives me Index/Railgun vibes and it sounds interesting so heres hoping its good.

Nekopara - man this series took off huh. It has gotten a couple games I think and an anime now. Is it just cute cat girls doing cute things, but with hentai that will not be in the anime version?

Oh were close to a new season huh

i don't think anyone really takes issue with you not liking botw

just that your criticism of "this game that took most of a console generation to develop should have taken the length of an entire console generation" is a bit off

I dont know how long they spent developing it in fairness. The last console LoZ I played was TP and I still havent played most of them yet. It just didnt feel like a finished product to me, but if thats how they intentionally designed the game I dont even know what to say. It might not have felt so bad though if I hadnt just finished 2 other games that also felt unfinished (KH3 and Pokemon Sword/Shield)

And for what its worth I actually quite liked the game up until finishing my first Divine Beast. Up to then all that really annoyed me was the constant rain, lightning, weapon durability and stamina wheel. I guess some of the voice acting too, but there hadnt been a lot of it up to then. The only thing I knew going into the game is what the art style looked like and that there were 4 important characters because of those amiibos.

swordz how long do you think it takes to develop bosses

Probably not long at all if theyre virtually identical

Jakyl25 posted...

Lol what?

I can understand complaints about the choices made regarding the weapon system and the lack of dungeons

Ive never seen ANYONE complain that it needed more polish.

Even if I didnt have problems with the story, characters and some poor voice acting I dont see how anyone can be happy with the bosses of this game. Nearly every single one of them has the same exact weakness. The world is also incredibly lacking in enemy variety and most of the exploration is finding 1-3min shrine puzzles or dumb Koroks

I dont hate any game due to its popularity or lack of popularity. Its like a big sandbox with a LoZ skin. It looks pretty, but is incredibly lacking in a lot of regards.

This is the least surprising swordz post ever made

Its not my fault it felt like a game that needed a few more years of development

Having now finished it Im confident its Breath of the Wild. What a colossal disappointment

Nope. Last year it came out of nowhere other than a leaker spoiling it for us so its possible it will just drop on NY again without warning

Oresuki sucked? Wow wonder who said that it would before it even aired

Gotta love how JP gets Top Grossing rewards hours after their new banner goes up, but Global typically has to wait several days to a week if we even get any rewards for it at all....

New Years login thing going on. Saving 400 stones because its possible we get the amazing step-ups last NY had

Good luck with your ticket multi! Its a guaranteed SSR even though it wouldve been cool if it was a guaranteed featured SSR since there are like 20 of them anyways....

I got all my stuff before Christmas so I had nothing for today itself.

Nintendo Switch
Pokemon Sword
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
Mario & Rabbids
Mario Odyssey
Fire Emblem 3 Houses
Xenoblade Chronicles 2
LoZ: BotW
DKC Tropical Freeze
Code Vein
Horizon Zero Dawn GotY
Trails of Cold Steel 2

A rainbow friend Hit along with my dupeless Jiren got me through USS SBR. Well leader skill wise. LR K/C and TEQ Caulifla did all the real work

HashtagSEP posted...

So should we have 10 tickets by now? I only have 6 but Im not sure where I missed them.

Maybe Part 1 missions?

https://mobile.twitter.com/dokkan_global/status/1209670096781578241

Well thats a nice surprise

Possibly Breath of the Wild. Well see when I get further in/finish it

Just keep in mind Steam is the only official way to play the Sky series since the 3rd one on PSP was never brought over to the US I think. Im probably skipping them because I dont have a pc or anything

Its possible you might be able to beat some of the other old ones. Theyve been made somewhat easy thanks to the power creep since then.

Tomorrow we find out if GoBros are in the coin shop. The main leader said NY banner is the main attraction so probably an upgraded Guaranteed LR step up banner with 1-2 cycles

Nice! Yeah Super AGL is busted

https://mobile.twitter.com/dokkan_official/status/1209022076650168321

Dat Majin Vegeta

The Netflix series is based on the books. The games kinda sorta are I think, but the author of the books hates the games

Dammit b8

Sma getting a 5th season

And beat the USS SBR in one try after getting Jiren so totally worth it. All SBR stages DONE!

0 dupe Jiren
1 dupe TEQ Caulifla (just there for infinite dodge)
1 dupe LR K/C (they make UI Goku look like dog shit lmao)
1 dupe PHY 17
2 dupe UI Goku
Bergodmo
Friend TEQ Hit

Threw 100 more stones at the Goku banner and got Jiren!!! Finally a USS leader

Still cant beat USS SBR even with LR K/C. Its entirely because I dont have a USS leader lol. Peppy Gals could do it maybe if we had INT Briannes Dokkan Awakening

Im in a situation where I think 400-500 stones gets me 500 red coins, but Gokus banner is probably going away before we even know if we are getting the Guaranteed LR NY banner again. I could use a USS leader, but I just cant seem to pull them. Hell I still cant get SSBE even

LR K/C is so good I could see why someone would whale for dupes and even dupes of the TUR form

It can definitely take forever. Its all up to RNG really. Ive seen people who set the date forward 2 full years before getting the G-max to appear

I dunno if this 18 medal is available from the shop yet. Probably not considering how new the medal is, but oh well

Oh....LR 16/17/18 needs that kissing 18 medal to Dokkan to LR. I am 4 medals short and its not available with Keys. Guess Im waiting X months :(

I also threw some stones at Gokus banner and got shit lol. Why cant I get one of the billion USS leaders.

If the GoBros do end up in the shop I might end up with enough red coins to get them. After that Ill be completely out of stones though
