Unless you're playing the second one and don't mind not doing some of the Undead dungeons.

3 out of 4 games were localized, with the 3rd one having a patch available online, so yes. I only added the Japanese name because Konami thought that they could fool gamers by changing the name in the last game to Lunar Knights to increase sales.

Just a small warning, playing an original copy of the first 3 games requires you to be under that big bright shining ball in the sky for important parts of the game.

There's the Boktai/Bokura no Taiyou series, starting from the second game you can level up your stats, but there's only like 3 or 4 of them (vitality, energy, strength, speed).

Is the lion that appears in Athena's other special an Eevee by any chance?

oh, I have a lot of ideas in my head. ^w^

Do they include a giant robot megazord thing that attacks with love beams and heart bombs? Or something similar?

Anime & Manga / Re: Casshern Sins

« on: March 09, 2009, 06:39:07 PM »

So, what I understood from 22...

(click to show/hide)

-Luna's healing has very painful side effects if it's to be perfect. If not you'll ruin anyways.
-Casshern has as much if not more blood than your average Mortal Kombat character.
-Leda wants to be a godess.
-Leda wants to make babies again.
-Dio is ruining and doesn't want to be healed.
-The animators are not willing to give Friender more than a couple of seconds of screentime until the very end
-Dio just gave CasshernXDio fangirls even more material for them to write their fanfics/doujins with.
-Epic battles between rivals will break the laws of nature and physics even more than the usual battles do.

Looks more like one of those flashes of light that happen when you're about to get completely obliterated by an attack if you ask me

The power of Saikyou is better than any other. That includes your Ansatsuken or however it's called and that crappy Kyokugenryu!

Well, in some areas, as long as you go with someone who's old enough to see the movie, then you're good to go.

I know, but the problem is that, except on the rare times that I go with my friends, the only time I get to go to the cinema is with the whole family, and that includes my younger brother that should definitely not see it =/

Dude, torrent the [tornado fang] out of the movie!  

Well, that's an option, but it won't be the same

So in the second one the bone pierces the skin? Eww
But in the third one it is not bad enough that you can see their brains or is it? It doesn't sound THAT bad otherwise.

First one is not much of a problem. Second one sounds more brutal than anything unless you mean you can clearly see their bones wihtout x-ray vision stuff. Third one does sound bad, depending on how graphic it actually is.

In any case, I'll have to man up a bit

The only problem now will be how it's classified over here. A B-15 is fine, but a C would make it impossible to watch for me.

There's quite a bit of it, I won't lie!  

There's violence, but really not that much of it.  The scenes that do have it are pretty hardcore violence too, which I loved as it fits the comic.  However, this comic book was never about the action or fights.  It's the story that holds so much merit.  It's the philosophical question and the moral ambiguity behind it which make the story so good.

Thank you (both), the bolded is the answer I was looking for. I know there's not much violence (in quantity), but I heard it was quite strong or something. Now my question will be complete if you can give me an example
