mushoku tensei s2 ep 5 release date gushing over magical girls anime watch online
As other genres jumped into it, it's treated as a niche topic that's used as a trigger point for the main plot of the story. For example, if the story is Romance, it's going to use "Video Games" just to introduce the character's love interest and make them fall in love with each other. Or if the story is purely Comedy, they'll use it just to create bland comedy between the characters thems4elves. The same could be said for Drama, going out of their way to play children's games so they could ruin long-lasting friends' relationships for no effing reason. It seems that any anime that has a Video Game theme in it, it's just there as a hook for the anime.
Shangri-La Frontier is entirely different from others that utilize Video Games by actually showing a player playing a Video Game without any major consequences. It's a guy that got his hands on Game of the Year after he played too many crappy RPG games in the past. That's all you need to know about this guy. What Shangri-La Frontier has to offer is that the video game world they present actually has lore and a realistic player base, and no, I don't want to hear how there are toxic players or griefers that ruin other people's experience. The main character doesn't have to fight his life over a game, he's still getting challenged but never feels overwhelmed, and most importantly, he's having fun without the presence of video game characters having to be present to talk and serve as unnecessary fanservice for the MC. On top of that, it also has good animation and the characters don't look generic whatsoever? This anime has been such a pleasant surprise that finally shows what a Video Game anime is actually about.
In terms of the number of good games published in a single year, 1996 was the year of record for SNK. King of Fighters '96, Real Bout Fatal Fury, and Samurai Shodown IV were sucking down quarters in the arcades, which in turn sparked a modest resurgence in the sales of AES consoles and cartridges. 1996 is also the same year that Metal Slug came to the NeoGeo. Unlike the fighting games that were so typical of the MVS/AES, Metal Slug was a side-scrolling platform game with a military theme and a hilarious cartoon style that proved popular to a decidedly wide audience. After purchasing Nazca, the game's original developer, SNK would go on to publish four more Metal Slug sequels. (All but one Metal Slug game was published by SNK. Metal Slug 4 was developed and published by Mega Enterprises in 2002 during SNK's "dark period," which will be covered later on in this feature). Today, you can purchase and play near-perfect versions of these Metal Slug games for the PlayStation, PlayStation 2, and Saturn consoles. Metal Slug wasn't produced in huge quantities for the NeoGeo home console. The AES home console version can go for upward of $1,000. Shown here is the complete set.
