OraMudaDoraAriMudaOraOra! My Ears! Well, at Least I’m Getting to Hit Back

Whew, that’s actually pretty tough to listen to all together like that. Someone went through the trouble of getting tons of rush pairs for everyone that can get them. I’m only embedding the first part because they start to repeat pretty quick, but there are two parts. There’s Jotaro vs. Dio on and then a Dio vs. Jotaro one later on. There is one fun one to see in Mista though. Stands don’t run out, but bullets do, so that he can actually manage reloads during that exchange is pretty impressive. He must have a massive callus on his trigger finger.

But that’s something you’d probably see eventually in normal gameplay. What about something you may not end up discovering on your own, like the broken parts of the game? It is a fighter, so something was bound to be out of balance or broken at some point, but you’d hope it’s nothing significant. Is it? Oh, it is quite significant.

Yeah, two loops have already been discovered. There’s a Joylne one, and there’s a Diavolo one. The Jolyne one looks like it takes a certain level of effort to pull off the timing of even if it is somewhat simple. The Diavolo one is outright obscene. That looks like something you’d discover your first or second time playing the character. Yeah, probably something that needs to be fixed. I really hope that’s a patchable thing and not a, “Welp, we’ll get it in Version 2 eventually.”

 

Someone Get that Phone, I’m Trying to Do My Kiai! All Star Battle PV 5 HD Video!

In glorious 1080 HD just for us. This is only the first half of the presentation from back on Sunday. The presentation of the new characters, modes, costumes and what have you all presented by a gloriously yelling Yuji Ueda.

Seeing this in HD is great because there’s a lot of details I didn’t pick up from the camcorder one. There’s obviously the voices. Sheer Heart Attack yelling at you to look at him right as it blows you up is a great touch. Hiroshi Kamiya sounds younger that I would have expected for Rohan. Romi Park was a fantastic Koichi pick. Yuuko Sanpei as Narancia, Noriaki Sugiyama as Bruno, and Toshiyuki Morikawa (Kyosuke Nanbu oh my god) as Diavolo are all doing excellent work with their characters too. I’m glad to know I wasn’t the only one thinking teleporting for how to use King Crimson in a fighting game. And as much as I liked the transition from Doppio to Diavolo before, seeing now that he was using the frog phone makes it so much better.

I never thought I’d be so excited over Diavolo. I mean, pulling people into the Zipper Dimension is going to be totally awesome, and any time I play Cars will be 10% becoming Ultimate Cars and 10000% squirrel shoot, but I’ve got to see the look on some of the new fans who’re coming in from the anime when the Boss lets me know he wants on this fight from his special hot frog line. I wonder if it’ll change and not always be the frog. Maybe we’ll also get the ice cream!

This game is getting better by the moment. Next stop is should be the new character reveal on the 19th after a slight detour to get a subbed version of this trailer. The blanked picture had the Part 1 background, but I’m really hoping for the Part 6 characters next. Look forward to it!

Edit:

There it is. PV 5 is already subbed in a show of top level fan speed. Oh, Speedwagon, you’re so charismatic. He basically says everything I want to say about the trailer but with that unique energy you only get from him.

The excitement’s rising, and this game can’t be in my hands soon enough!
