It is a system needed for people to keep themselves sane and deal with the unreasoning chaos of reality. Religion offers the story of salvation, for example. Likewise, morals and ethics could be defined as the most popular story of the people of the age. But while these stories are harmless as long as they're used to keep individuals calm, this changes when they're used as tools for a country or race. Stories like "jews are an inferior race that have to be purged" and "capitalists are devils and if you suicide bomb them you can go to heaven" brought about tragedies due to their popularity. For an example on a smaller scale, it's not uncommon that a story that one person...

UROBUCHI GEN (pg 58-94) -Interview is from before he was allowed to talk about being on board for Gaim. They allude to it but end with him saying he's not allowed to talk about it yet. -He says that working on tokusatsu is "probably" (once again, not allowed to talk about Gaim yet) completely different from working on anime, because there are a lot of factors outside the writer's control, like the belts. He "thinks" the writer is given the belt first and it told to write a story around it. Up till now he'd written stuff completely freely so it would be a huge challenge to him. -Most of the Showa riders aired when he was a young chil...

Masoukishin- Granzon, Neo Granzon, Possession Cybuster model kit manual setting info translations

Neo Granzon Unit: One thing that puzzled the people who helped build the Granzon are the black boxes known as "Riddles". These were things that Shu installed into the Neo Granzon himself. Though they vary in size all can fit into the palm of a hand, and so they left him to do whatever he wanted because it didn't affect the weight or anything. All the Riddles formed a network controlled by the Kabbalah Program Shuu designed. The system was thought to boost the output and power up some of the Granzon's weapons. Shuu named this the Mahakala System.When people who thought it was an inappropriate name for something controlling a black hole asked him why he named it so, he replied that Mahakala is another name of the Hindu god Shiva, meaning "Great Black". It is said that those who heard his words were more inclined to shudder than to laugh. Most did not find it in taste for him to be naming it after a destroyer god. At the end of the Shu...

Darkest Dungeon

このゲーム めっちゃ面白いのでいろいろ書いて見るか(あとで更新するかも) Steam 4亀 面白いと聞いたのでSteamでDarkest Dungeonを購入。アーリーアクセスなので未完成のゲームだが、それでもかなりの完成度。 pic.twitter.com/vvRSXfmnfI — wotn (@Weisskaiser) 2015, 2月 12 サイドスクロールタイプのダンジョン探索RPGでバトルはターン制。ローグライク的な要素もあり、死んだキャラは蘇らない・常にオートセーブ(やり直しは効かない)。そしてクトゥルフRPGから取り入れた正気度(ここではストレス) pic.twitter.com/NNwJmNqidY — wotn (@Weisskaiser) 2015, 2月 12 ちなみにキャラのquirk(特徴、perkみたいなもんだが悪い効果の奴もある)やスキルは全部ランダム。 pic.twitter.com/Z4bsxPpRqL — wotn (@Weisskaiser) 2015, 2月 12 まだ少ししかやってない上にまだ苦戦したことがないが、他の人によればこのゲームではキャラは消耗品らしい。 pic.twitter.com/nzJgAND5Dp — wotn (@Weisskaiser) 2015, 2月 12 あ、ちなみに制作会社はRed Hookっていう新しいところ。クトゥルフの影響が明らかに大きい(名前は『レッドフック街怪事件』から。てかロゴが触手) pic.twitter.com/d2meBLxi23 — wotn (@Weisskaiser) 2015, 2月 12 システムは奥が深い(戦略がかなり重要でチュートリアルでも死に掛けたりする)のに割りとシンプルな上、ストーリーはあってないようなもんで文章の量が少ないので英語が分からなくてもある程度大丈夫と思うぞ!……あくまで「ある程度」だけど(スキルの効果くらいは把握しないと) — wotn (@Weisskaiser) 2015, 2月 12 「苦戦したことがない」と言った直後のダンジョンにメンバーが全員発狂しリーダーが死んだ。 どうしてこうなった pic.twitter.com/F7aU3GW3pc —...

Utawarerumono interview stuff

So I heard that the Utawarerumono PS2 official guidebook (2006) had an interview with interesting info in it, and so got it. Just translating/summarising some snippets. NOTE: I CAN'T AINU SO I'M PROBABLY TRANSLITERATING A LOT OF NAMES WRONG. People Washimi Tsutomu: Director Suga Munemitsu: Writer Amaduyu Tatsuki: Character designer Utawarerumono takes place in Japan (in the future). The Earth's axis has changed a bit in this world. The rest of the world of course still exists, and there are other races not seen in the game living on other continents. -Suga There were initially plans to have Benawy, Crow, and/or Oboro die at the end. Crow even had a scene written, where he falls off a cliff along with an Av-Kamu yelling "long live lord Hakuoro!". -Suga Q: What is Hakuoro, anyway? Suga: To put it simply, "someone with power" (力のある者). He is called a god, but this isn't the sort of god found in contemporary religion, but rather something w...
