>shitty game
:I
>shitty game based on anime
:O

>>717292864 (OP)
If I were forced to play this with a knife under my throat, I suppose I'd have to play Izaya or Taiga. Probably Taiga, isn't she a gorilla?

>>717292864 (OP)
Akira

Touma should've been playable
Stupid fucking jap retards

kirito's daughter, i guess, i like accel world the best of the stuff i recognize. who's the blue eyed girl one from the right? she looks familiar but I can't place her

>>717292956
I tried watching her anime long ago but got so insanely bored with it, only watched maybe 4 episodes.

nobody cares about this slop

Qwenther I guess

>>717293081
she's a taiga

>>717292994
retro anime can't be compared to what we have today.

>>717293772
10 year old anime btw

>>717294452
that's old as fuck considering no young person barely watched anything made before 2015, that's like saying Umaru isn't retro

>>717292864 (OP)
Taiga.

>>717294795
although it's old, I wouldn't call it retro. Or should the PS3/360 be retro as well?

>>717292864 (OP)
Taiga or Basket loli

>>717292864 (OP)
My perfect wife Kirino

>>717295182

>>717292864 (OP)
Only 30-something year olds know those characters.
Tomoka or Kirino.

>>717292864 (OP)
>mfw only recognize toradora, sao and my little sister from the roster
absolute fraud

>>717292864 (OP)
Whoever has the best matchup against Kirino

>>717292864 (OP)
I liked playing that red haired girl in the middle when I played this years ago

>>717295182
it released 20 years ago so yes

>>717292864 (OP)
Does anyone even remember Durarara?

>>717292864 (OP)
is this the one with the basketball girl? she's cool

>>717295182
You know what you are doing, kill yourself. Railgun hasn't even ended yet.

Ok nigger but why are you a bitch about it? Are you that miserable?

>>717296935
>i'm only 30! 30 is young!

>>717296901
>Dokuro-chan is just an assist character
I guess they didn't want fatalities in the game.

>>717296901
OH SHIT THEY'RE FUCKING BALLIN

>>717292864 (OP)
The character I play as would change frequently but I will always use Enju as an assist.

>>717296436
I remember it fondly, but at the same time barely remember anything that happened in it other than the big season ender shit

>>717292864 (OP)
Shizuo. He's the only reason i even bothered to play this.
>>717296436
I wish they'd actually put a character from Baccano! but no one would remember that even then.

I really need to play this at some point.

So I can beat the shit out of Kirino.

>>717297406
I still don't know why she would be so good as a playable character
At least she is one one of the best assist

>>717292864 (OP)
Better than Tekken 8 at least

Her

>>717292864 (OP)

I'm buying this game right now.

>Dengeki Bunko: Fighting Climax is a 2D arcade fighting game developed by Ecole Software and French Bread and published by Sega.
Huh, I always thought it was an Examu game. Looks like the kind of thing they would make.

>>717293246
>Even the HO shits are playable.
Someone at Dengeki really hated him.
>>717293449
Because the director wanted to ride on the CGDCT train and made as many filler episodes as he could before finally getting to the actual plot.

>>717292864 (OP)
ONII-SAMA OF COURSE

>>717292864 (OP)
I knew I grew out of anime when I looked at this select screen and only recognized shana.

>>717292864 (OP)
Far left because he looks like Ryu. I don't know, nor care, what game this is.

>>717293772
It needs to be 20 years old to be considered "Retro" anime or "Retro" anything at the very least, double that to be vintage.

>>717300029
Boco-niisan, why are you so abusive? ;w;

>>717306725

Filthy bitch is incestuous. She deserves every minute of it. So does anyone else into that shit.

Is dengeki bunko getting a rerelease or something or are they still mad the game was emulated

>>717292864 (OP)
kirito

>>717292864 (OP)

>>717306809
FB hasn't said anything about it I think so probably the latter. Chaos Code is getting a new update though

Retro is a term referring to out of fashion styles and trends.
For anime, retro is an incredibly vague thing to ascribe, but I'd say the cutoff would be in two tier.
The earliest point would be in or around 2012, which is when Zero no Tsukaima ended and Sword Art Online began (though that's more a general stylistic shift in general art trends within anime, which was beginning years before then).
However, even that has gone out of fashion starting around 2019-20 thereabouts. Oddly, the show Last Dungeon from that time was fairly prescient for how modern anime would look and present itself.

As for video games, the cutoff is far easier to make.
Roughly around 2005-07. Most games have not evolved much since then with a lot of how games are designed being iterative on concepts codified in that era.

>>717292864 (OP)
I really want them to make a sequel to this game, so i can play as Adachi

>>717292864 (OP)
I got railgun and IIRC touma is an assist so I'm all set up

>>717307268
Trends in the 2015+ in Gaming that are different from previous:
> Souls-Likes.
> Battle Royales.
> Autoshooters.
> Autobattlers.
> Gacha Games.
> Extraction Shooters.
That's about it. But yeah, 20 years is still when people use the same shit over and over again after that things evolve and take new forms generally speaking. Closest thing to early 2000s anime I've seen aesthetics wise is that Yakuza anime "The Fable."

>>717307573
Most of what you describe is new, but a lot of it is built on design trends that already existed. Battle Royales are an evolution of a concept in multiplayer games of a FFA deathmatch, and another trend that had cropped up in the era I described was absurdly large multiplayer lobbies (obviously not 100 people by then, but that was a technological limitation, you still had stuff like Resistance 2's 64 player lobbies).
Gacha games are an outside influence- they're gachapons. TCGs. Oddly sometimes tamogatchis or however you spell it.

Extraction shooters and Souls-likes are the most technically new things here, and Souls-likes is stretching the technically since it is a further evolution of existing ideas, but again, all of these are existing alongside or within baseline ideas that haven't shifted much at all in 20 years.
You pick up a game today and play it, you'll easily be able to slip into an equivalent on the PS3 or 360.
I'll count the Wii and the handhelds as exceptions to this though, they are 100% retro.

>>717292864 (OP)
>can beat the fuck out of Kirino
Sign me up

>>717292864 (OP)
I main Tatsuya/Lucien in this game

>>717307573
What is an auto shooter? I don't think I'm familiar with those.

>>717307926
Wrong actually, most souls-gamers will find it hard to "get good" in a hack and slash game because they will tire out before the good part starts because of all the smashing. Gacha and Auto Battlers basically replaced TCGs and MMORPGs. Autoshooters replaced grind heavy korean MMORPGs and regular FPS games.

>>717292864 (OP)
GET UP AND SLAM

>>717308192
Vampire Survivor game, where you kite around and your abilities shoot the enemies automatically, its like a bullet heaven game except the enemies don't often strike back unless you crash into them or they are big boss types/elite units. It basically works on same idea as MMORPG grinding but shmups.

>>717308350
>Vampire Survivor game
Ohhh, ok. I thought those were called "survivor-like" or something else. I've tried a few others and the only one I was able to stand for a while was the original. I tried it again recently and couldn't get back into it though.

>>717308475
Rogue Genesia can be fun and it goes balls to the walls with OP broken ass builds on purpose.
At one point I had a half screen filled with my own bullets and basically a zone of death that killed everything that it touched, fun times. The bosses can still nuke you though.

>>717308283
>Gacha and Auto Battlers basically replaced TCGs and MMORPGs.
Hard to replace things that are still actively made. Hell, Square Enix still maintains three MMORPGs in addition to gacha ventures.
The rest is a lot of the same- these things aren't really being replaced. Not as prevalent, sure, but a lot of these things are still built on what was there 20 years ago, and gaming has no evolved that significantly.
Compare the drastic changes of before
In the days before and during the Atari, most games were still built in the style of arcade titles, being endless in some capacity. During the NES, that shifted to games with designated endpoints- they could have a second quest, but they still had endings.
By the time of the PCE/Gen/SNES, this saw a full tilt towards games with narratives and far more experimental titles, but I would still consider that in line with the later NES works.

The arrival of 3D completely changed things though, which is why the fifth gen is very distinct from the sixth gen, it's probably the most experimental video games have ever been.
The sixth gen is when trends solidified, online started to become commonplace, and then in the seventh gen, online solidified, DLC arrived, microtransactions began in their infancy, and there's less evolution and more standard growth to today. That's why I don't view the trends of today as distinct enough to really warrant labeling gaming from the mid 00s on as retro.
The first thing to likely become retro in this era will become the concept of distinct consoles as a whole, what with steam coming to Xbox (and likely PlayStation as well if Sony is smart), leaving just Nintendo and "Game Machines".
After that, who knows. We could very well be waiting for SAO style fulldive VR before gaming notably changes again.

how the fuck they added a loli, Tomoka, into a fightan

>>717308671
The game is Dengeki Bunko Fighting Climax
Which means they threw in characters from the Dengeki Bunko light novel brands, which Ro Kyu Bu was part of.

>>717292864 (OP)
I remember using that butterfly girl from mechaSAO or something sorry I never did watch her anime I just know she has a fat otaku mc.
I would spam her parry and made some people online sperg out at me.
Good times.

>>717308645
Those are barely maintaining their player base and struggle to get anyone new into the fold and die off after interest wanes even for the hardcore players. Those are really old MMORPGs though, there's not a single good F2P MMORPG being released as of now and I mean in the classic "WOW-Killer" sense or even just a good old Action-Based MMORPG. Last proper ones were released prior 2020s and no I won't count Chinese gacha games as MMORPGs like Genshin Impact etc.

>>717308910
> PS: The biggest retro thing from 2005 and prior are the death of pixel based 2D fighters with great pixel artwork.

>>717292864 (OP)
Shana for sure.

>>717292864 (OP)
Playing Yukina in this is why I watched Strike the Blood. It was okay.

>>717308910
>there's not a single good F2P MMORPG being released as of now and I mean in the classic "WOW-Killer" sense
It's pretty funny that WOW Killers, something that made the original varied style of MMORPGs retro, is itself retro since even the people who make them today aren't making WOW style theme park ones.

>>717293148
>akira is a moe anime girl
I accept this trvth

>>717309079
Yeah, its a fucking shame and everything is now china-owned for MMORPGs and makes me not want to touch those things.

It is. And a surprisingly decent poverty fighter.
>but if it is real i'd main incest sister
I do main her, she's fun as fuck. If I really get hammered as her, though, I fall back on Shana, who plays a lot like Ryu / Ky Kiske.
