#Kill la Kill the Game

[veebs-hates-video-games]

Eh, screw it, might as well do the Switch games too, starting with Switch games I've played in the past five or six months but gave up on before finishing them:

Reverse Crawl: Silly premise, kinda fun, but not enough for me to finish the whole thing

Celeste: I know this is probably heretical, but I didn't really like this one? I wasn't really into how the platforming felt and wasn't enjoying it that much, even though basically everyone else I know who's played it loves it. I understand that I have to stop being trans now, and I accept that

Grimvalor: The demo and first major area of the game were fun enough, but it got kind of annoying past that

Panzer Dragoon: Remake: I've actually played the original on an actual Saturn, so it was interesting to see what they did with it. I guess it was worth the like two bucks to be reminded of that, but it hasn't aged super well and mostly makes me want to play a better oldschool rail shooter like Star Fox 64 or something

Hollow Knight: Another one where lots of people I know love it but I just couldn't really get into the feel of it and lost interest pretty quickly

Fast RMX: Not sure whether this belongs under "still playing" or not [since writing this I have decided on "or not" for both this and the next game]. It's the closest thing to F-Zero in years, which is something I've been missing, but also it's hard and I'm bad at it

Burnout Paradise Remastered: Also not sure whether this one is still being played either, but I got it because I had a lot of fun with the original but never got to play any of the DLC stuff because it was never released for the PC version. I made it through a decent chunk of the DLC this time around before getting distracted, but I'm not sure whether I'll go back and do the rest or not [I probably will not any time soon, but maybe when I'm bored at some point]

Monster Hunter Rise (demo): The controls and UI are way less of a disaster than Monster Hunter Generations on the 3DS, so that's nice. I think it's safe to say that Monster Hunter just isn't for me though

Kill la Kill The Game - IF: The internet was right: this game sure can bad. It's almost ok sometimes? It constantly feels like they had half the time and half the budget they needed to actually finish making it though. The combat system is vaguely fine but not very compelling, and then the game hard-crashed loading what was probably the last fight of Satsuki's route. I took that as a sign that it wanted me to close the game and not open it again

"I hate how small this fandom I'm in is" then make it bigger?? You're part of the fandom, if there's no content you make that content.

[yandere-daydreams]

you managed to do what no other being has - make me unwell over yuuta. thank you once again for being incredible (at making me slightly unwell by lovely writing).

(for some reason him being shipped with maki turned me off even before he was like. properly introduced in main jjk manga. i am biased through my lesbianism and therefore struggled to see the appeal of his pathetic wet eyes despite it generally being up my alley.)

no no no you're so real for that,,, i also really hated yuuta at first for 1) not being my biological son yuuji and 2) giving people a generic male character to ship maki with despite the fact that she is, like, the most lesbian shaped character that has ever lesbianed in a piece of media. i have since warmed to him after realizing that he himself is an honorary part of the queer community (canonical monster fucker) and that he is far too damp and pathetic (in my preferred characterization at least) to ever really hate. he's just a soggy kitten trapped in a soaking wet paper box and it's easier to pick him up and shake him out of affection than out of loathing.

Todays rip: 10/01/2024

Kill & Learn (Recut Ver​.​)

Season 4 Episode 1 Featured on: SiIvaGunner's Highest Quality Rips: Volume L [Side B] Also on: STUDIO TRIGGER QUALITY MUSIC WORKS

Ripped by Smoky

High Quality Never Dies.

The end of Season 3 was quite a tumultuous time for SiIva. Being a music channel on YouTube, the SiIvaGunner channel always teeters over the gaping maw of copyright strikes from music production companies, made worse by YouTube's lack of protection from these false strikes. All of SiIvaGunner's content obviously falls under the umbrella of fair use by the nature of the channel: its core goal and aim is to REMIX music, not reupload it. Yet, in December 2018, eight videos were targeted by Sony Music Entertainment of Japan, which eventually spiralled into the channel's deletion at the beginning of 2019. Five years and one day ago, on January 9th, SiIvaGunner celebrated its third anniversary - with its main channel dead in the water due to YouTube's incompetency.

It's a damn shame that shit like this can happen to just about any aspiring creator on YouTube, and the team was immensely fortunate to have an audience large enough to catch YouTube's attention this time. By February of that same year, the channel was back, Season 3 was over, and Season 4 Episode 1 was officially online. And those copystruck rips were not going to be forgotten.

Kill & Learn (Recut Ver.) is not the same rip as the one that was initially part of that eight-video striking spree from 2018. Yet its an absolutely terrific remastering effort, uploaded during the long-awaited STUDIO TRIGGER event later in the Season. Much like the Planet Wisp Mashup Medley, its a direct tribute to the legendary ripper Triple-Q and one of his many in-jokes, of drawing comparison between the stories of Sonic Adventure 2 and STUDIO TRIGGER's Kill La Kill. Kill & Learn (Recut Ver.) is technically the third spin on this idea, with Triple-Q's own mashup Kill la Kill OST: Final Boss Theme first, followed by the original Kill & Learn (Uncut Ver.), and finally with Kill & Learn (Recut Ver.). All three follow the same premise, mashing up Kill La Kill's second OP Ambiguous with the main theme of Sonic Adventure 2, Live & Learn, yet all feel very different from one another. Live & Learn (Recut Ver.) is, to me, the ultimate endpoint of this concept, and the best of the three - it screams hype from every point of the song, with Live & Learn's vocals fitting the instrumental of Ambiguous like a glove - it's a mashup that felt destined to happen, and is here executed with five years worth of refining.

It warms my heart to see Kill & Learn (Recut Ver.) sitting at such a high view count (over 700K views as of writing) despite the troubled circumstances of its production, of how the original Kill & Learn (Uncut Ver.) is likely never going to be back up on YouTube. Yet, through the hype of the STUDIO TRIGGER takeover and sheer love of the original rip, we found a way to push this rip far past the original's view count. No matter what, high quality finds a way to live on!

I know it’s not actually a fighting competition, but I’ve really been into the look of fighting games recently, and wanted to try making something that looked like one! I originally wanted to animate it, but I realized I don’t actually know enough about fighting games to make it look accurate, so I just had it look like the very start of the match, right before the timer starts ticking down.

BTW, I really really like Zest’s design! They’re style is super cool, and I love the colors! I think if I ever did animate this, one of their animations would have to include biting straight out of a lemon, like that one scene from Kill La Kill.

Zest the Rat belongs to @dreaminginmysoup!
