Oh, I forgot to mention Yuugi. Of all the characters in Touhou to be the neglected role of Grappler, she's imo the most fitting.

ROAMER B @roamerb.bsky.social · 1d

Ideally, everyone. But to limit myself to specific examples, the three beast leaders are all good pics. Yorihime could also be the second coming of UMVC3 Vergil.

Not to ruin the joke, but the thing about her spells is that she writes them as one thing and says them as another. In your example, she writes Lunar Rabbit's Remote Mesmerism and says Tele-Mesmerism.

Just a heads upfor nsfw artists using paypal Its probably a good idea to only take payment through Invoices anyway, basic details are fine BUT /NOTHING/ involving nsfw , furry , or fetish topics should ever go anywhere. "Single character commission" is a-okay. they dont needa know shit else ever.

This is a warning to every artists and clients using PayPal: Leave the note blank or send invoices. Apparently even saying "commission" makes them trigger happy. #SaveSpeech #StopPaypros

And continue the pressure by calling PayPal. Helpful link here: anti-censorship-campaign.carrd.co#phonescript

@MrQuessos: [quote tweeting @Inker_comics] If you are going to pay an artist via PayPal, please DO NOT include ANYTHING related to commission or nsfw in the payment description. Whether out of ignorance or innocence, you could screw up someone's job.

The only formally revealed machines left to cover are Turbo, Rocket, Slick, Rex, and the normal Chariot, funnily enough. Battle got revealed today, and there's six weeks left before release at the time of posting, so they could just speeding it up to cover them all before then.

I've been staring at Air Riders Accounts ever since the direct was announced, and frankly I'm baffled it's taking this long to announce a DATE for the damn thing. I also noticed two consecutive days of posting machines, so maybe that could be a sign...

That's not even getting the posibility of adding extra rows! My previous overly optimistic guess of 19 courses on 4x5 suddenly becomes closer than normal on a 3x6 with 17, making the new pie in the sky course number 23 on a 4x6 grid, which would require all old courses to even be feasible.

ROAMER B @roamerb.bsky.social · 6d

Also worth noting is the potential number of Air Ride Courses. Despite having one less slot in its row than the one seen in the direct, it has empty spaces both on the right and left, so a 2x6 grid of 11 courses+random is suddenly the new minimum, compared to the previous 2x5 having 9 like GC.

That isn't to say that there's nothing left to reveal about City Trial. There's the Legendary Air Ride Machines in the room, and the Nintendo Live Demo featured a Stadiums that weren't in earlier demos. (No recording allowed, so all I have is this statement on twitter unfort) x.com/batamon1/sta...

How did they turn the place into a skyscraper laden metropolis?

Why are there at least three competing organized crime syndicates in here?

How come a former resident serving a Gensokyo Sage doesn't appear to be a widely known fact? Did she leave on her own accord or did Yukari snatch her?

If you thought their height placement for Mystia was bad, their placement of the Yorigamis is just as atrocious. According to them, this is what 5'6 vs 5'7 looks like.

Jo'on Yorigami (left) and Shion Yorigami (right) as seen in AoCF. Jo'on is roughly a head shorter than Shion there.

Even the Aya Assistance alts that are based on previously released alts aren't that good. There's a child Blue Reimu, the third one after "normal" and New Years'. and yet another child alt. And then there's Injured Blonde Scene Girl Sanae...

ROAMER B @roamerb.bsky.social · 20d

Meanwhile, here's the 'proper' versions of the previous post's alts. None of these have a banner yet, and in Remilia's case, no stage exists where you can fight her.
