I would go with Shinjima because it seems rather peaceful and if I remember correctly (it has been a while) that was the reason of the jerk-face who made everything go crazy in Nocturne so I think he should get his way.

Also I don't really think that physical strength is the right path because intelligence will get us farther than strength ever would (frig I sound like a giant nerd so I will stop saying anything)

None of them [at least, not Yosuga and Musubi] could be considered an ideal "right path", though. Yosuga and Musubi are the result of Chiaki and Nitta's own insecurities brought on by the "new" world, so the Kotowari are inherently flawed in one way or another. I don't know/recall much of anything about Shijima because I affiliate that with Hikawa, and I couldn't stand Hikawa, his Mach 5 hair style, or his pajama-pattern suit.

Though, "freedom" is probably the ideal Kotowari for most people (as one can obviously gather from the poll results).

It's also not hard to see why Musubi is popular, when one considers how many introverts there are on the internet.

I watch Last Exile a while ago. Good series I thought, though some of the english VA wasn't as great. I recommend it subbed personally.

I would recommend it on mute either way with closed captioning on.

Japanese voice acting is some of the most bland. With English and other language voice acting, regardless of whether it's bad, at least it sounds like they're trying. There's also little to no variation [in Japanese voice acting] -- like they use the same 4 or 5 voice actors for everything. Though, I think Japanese voice acting is so popular just because people like listening to what they don't understand.

I agree, I liked the music in IV and V a lot, especially Rune of Punishment and The Queen's Knights songs.

Yeah, I like "The Queen's Knights", especially the remix they had on the Limited Edition Music CD. My favorite songs from Suikoden 5 are "Move Out!" and "Town on a River". My favorite songs from Suikoden 4 are "Magnificent Swordsman", "Southern Wind", and "La Mer".

Rhapsodia/Suikoden Tactics also had good music.

I hope they do a celtic album for 4 and 5.

Ghost in the Shell Stand Alone Complex seasons 1 & 2 are pretty cool

If by "cool" you mean the most boring things on the planet, then yes.

I'm replaying Suikoden right now. It may not be the best Suikoden, but the soundtrack is a pure masterpiece.

On the subject of Suikoden OSTs... I think 4 and 5 had the best OSTs in the series. 1's was the most memorable, 2's was just bland, though, "Children Playing in the Fields" and "Reminiscence" were both good. 3 and 4 had my favorite opening themes ["Exceeding Love" and "La Mer"], but 5's was mediocre -- it's like they didn't even want to attempt to make something as unique as 3 and 4's opening themes. They should've gotten coba or Himekami to do it.

I have to agree. I was lucky enough to find it for $14.99 new. I have tried starting it up several times and I quit each time. It bores me to tears.

Yeah, Suikoden 2 is extremely boring. The formula consists of just: Hero and company enter a city. Hero and company are forced to flee the city. Hero and company return to city and liberate it. Repeat. I didn't feel like I was accomplishing all that much.

The first Suikoden was far more satisfying, despite how short it was. Suikoden also doesn't have Jowy, who is perhaps one of the most annoying Suikoden characters. It felt like they only put him in there to appease the yaoi fangirls.

Maybe they just think Shinji is a shitty character?

This sounds about right.

^Members here or elsewhere?

I thought there was someone here who posted this stupid, ridiculous, introduction post, but I can't recall who it was, or if the post is still here or not. But he had this ridiculous "poem" where he was trying to sound bad ass or dark or something equally ridiculous. It doesn't seem to be in this thread, though, so I don't know. I'm pretty sure it was here, though, because I recall belittling him for it. This was before I was banned, so it was awhile ago.

You want to make a riddle thread or just being enigmatic?

I think he's trying to be like, deep or poetic or something. Other members [one or two, I think] in the past have tried this, but all they really did was embarrass themselves.

I find a certain irony in some of these posts.

You might want to elaborate, rather posting one-sentence responses to year old threads, as it comes off as you trying to quickly increase your post count.

II is overrated and really not all that good. At least, not as good as people would like you to believe. I thought the first was better.

As was Advance Wars 1 & 2. Or as I like to call them, Nectaris Lite.

Military Madness (for the TurboGrafx-16, at least) was awesome.

Yggdra Union is way above average.

I don't care much for strategy-RPGs. Did anyone else find it odd that they had a 12-year-old girl that speaks in the third-person named "Nietzsche".

Rune Factory? Whatever happened with that?

It'll be released in North America May 2nd, supposedly.

Anyway its just your opinion! and I dont care about it.

Obviously you do, if you keep making such a big deal out of it.
