Weird Steps - Disruptor - 01-04-2004
Here's a few worlds that Doug might have some problems with.
Guyver, after Sho gets the Gigantis upgrade.
Sho really needs someone to talk to.
Super Dimension Century Orguss.
Can Doug handle a world that has dimensional problems?
The Realm of Dungeons and Dragons(Booby, Hank, Sheila, Diana, Presto, Eric, Uni)
The Mega-Man cartoon. Maybe do something about the extreme male chauvinistc tendencies of the cast.

Abenobashi Mahou Shougentai, actually.
Translated roughly as 'Magical Shopping Arcade Abenobashi'.
Re: Titles - Disruptor - 01-04-2004
I'm not sure about the Magical Shopping Arcade anime. This is the first I've heard of it.
Orguss had something called a Space/Time Oscillation Bomb.
It collapsed Time & Space on at least four worlds. Joan of Arc leading a band of rebels against the tyrant Marie Antionette. Pieces of each world shifted back and forth with little warning. All the worlds were surrounded by a barrier called the Dimensional Tepest.
It was a mess.

Definitely worth it, if you like friendly fun mindfucks. Two kids get thrown into a series of parallel world versions of the marketplace in Osaka where they live. Each world is a twisted reflection filtered through a specific genre -- space SF, film noir detective movie, shojo anime. Very strange and very fun.
I'm not familiar with Orguss. Sounds like a bit of a downer.

Yea I just watched the first DVD not to long ago it reminded me of Excel Saga just because of the general wackiness of the episodes.

Well, the world-hopping is all done with the best of intentions. And there doesn't seem to be any danger of lasting physical harm (think of Wile E. Coyote getting squished temporarily).
On a related note, have you gotten around to Dokkoida yet?
Re: Abenobashi - WengFook - 01-05-2004
isnt that more constantly being re-fscked again and again ^_^U
ahwell i'll believe it when i see it.

Sorry, Cap'n, the holiday season -- plus planning for an upcoming game convention where I'm a GM -- has kept me hopping. It's still stacked up on my desk, right in front of the monitor.

Which convention would this be?
If you're in the upstate-NY general area, 'Running GAGG' in Geneseo can be lots of fun...
Re: Congoing Bob? - Bob Schroeck - 01-05-2004
Dreamation 2004 in East Brunswick, NJ. Assuming I can find enough GMs .

Re: Congoing Bob? - offsides - 01-06-2004
Sorry Bob - you know I wanted to help, but I already had another committment... As for Upstate NY, _where_ in upstate NY? I'm living half-time in Poughkeepsie these days, so I'm at least closer than I would be otherwise in PA...

Re: Congoing Bob? - Bob Schroeck - 01-06-2004
Well, Vinnie just sent me a phone number for one of my old GMs, who I couldn't find. That just leaves me with one GM slot unfilled. I guess it's time to actually finish putting the damned adventure on paper. (Oh, no! Another game writing project! )

Re: Congoing Bob? - offsides - 01-06-2004
Yes, but you're not getting paid for this one (other than in MIB points and membership), so you've got incentive to get it over with ASAP

Upstate NY Cons - Guest - 01-06-2004
Well, Running GAGG is in Geneseo (GAGG = Geneseo Area Gaming Group).
There's also SimCon in Rochester in March, and we just had our first UNY-Con here (also Rochester) in November...
Re: Upstate NY Cons - offsides - 01-06-2004
Not being familiar with New York state, where exactically is Geneseo? Rochester I know, but only because my sister went to U of R...

Quote:Gigantic, please. (I have most of the untranslated manga, I know whereof I speak. In fact, I just finished translating vol. 8 into English and I'm looking for sites to send the document to.)
Guyver, after Sho gets the Gigantis upgrade.
Quote:As of vol. 15, definitely. The only other hero he could really trust is now a brainwashed villain out for his blood; Aptom, while technically on his side and trying to toughen him up, is not the best source of advice; and it's increasingly obvious that Agito is not one of the good guys.
Sho really needs someone to talk to.
On top of that, Kronos has been openly ruling the world for over a year, they've made the Guyvers out to be alien terrorists, and a mock Guyver Gigantic has just turned public opinion against Sho by wantonly slaughtering innocents (and also earned him the wrath of the only Zoalord who actually seemed to care about said innocents, and was not in on the faker plan).
He needs lessons from a seasoned professional Good Guy.
Unfortunately, the Guyver world is a wee bit overpowered for Doug... he'd be in major, MAJOR trouble in short order...

Well maybe not, but I'd really like to see that.

Quote:He needs lessons from a seasoned professional Good Guy.Not really. Well the Zoalords, Aptom and Guyver Gigantic, yes. The ordinary Zoanoids are dangerous, but are just very tough agents. They just come in great numbers.
Unfortunately, the Guyver world is a wee bit overpowered for Doug... he'd be in major, MAJOR trouble in short order...
Leon's Earthshaker(BGC) could kill an oridinary Zoanoid with ease. Max Factory Zoanoid buster anyone? That was Murakami's gun and seems to be equal to the Earthshaker.
It's when you start heading into the HyperZoanoids that the powers start to become difficult.
BTW isn't Dr. Hayami/Bio-Freezer still on Sho's side?
True, Doug would be a little outclassed when the big guys start opening up on each other. However, Tetshuro Segawa was able to provide advice for Sho for a little bit. Right now ADVICE is more neccesarry than power.
If Doug can somehow arrange a truce between Sho and Purg'stall that would help as well.

You know, if I had ever seen more than the first two eps of Guyver, this would all make a lot more sense to me.

Then, I guess it is up to the fans of both your fanfic and the Guyver series to handle. Besides, the Gigantic armor only shows up in the manga.

I would, but my musical knowledge is pretty low. And, I don't see it changing anytime soon. I have certain issues
(www.boycott-riaa.com/ ) that prevent me from buying any new music. A lot of music I do have is obscure(Freedom's Star), Japanese anime soundtrack, or insturmental
