Yeah I get you, my main point is that him wearing glasses in the strip but not in the pic isn’t an out-and-out disqualifier in and of itself, unless you’re a citizen of Metropolis and can’t fathom things like Clark Kent and Superman being the same person haha.

I dunno what the case is with Kodera, or even if he’s the…

I mean...contact lenses are a thing. I choose to wear my glasses pretty much all the time, but literally the majority of the people I know who need prescription lenses at all times hardly ever wear their glasses in favor of contacts. Many of them I didn’t even know they needed them until I saw them one day in their…

Yeah we don’t wear those all the time haha

Maybe for some reason it’s supposed to be former Playstation CEO John Kodera haha

I feel like Nerf Now missed a great opportunity to slip an “I never asked for this” in there from Adam haha

To be fair

Your hot take is pretty much right in line with my take. It’s all just a bunch of opinions being thrown around because people like what they like, but often times I feel like they’re fighting over which looks less ugly rather than which actually looks good haha.

I feel like I might have discovered at some point that he directed hentai, but either way it’s so unsurprising given how he did everything else haha. I’ll definitely give it to him that he has a very recognizable style though. Huge eyes were definitely more popular in 90s anime, but his were pretty distinctive…

Masami Obari’s tended to hate drawing female characters with 1) eyes that weren’t horrifically large and pointy, 2) a sensible amount of clothing, and 2) anything less than double D’s.

Yup, you’re right; they froze their ages basically like cartoons do. Basically happened in concert with fighting games no longer listing birth years, that way you don’t end up with a youthful character whose canon birthdate makes them like 40. Kula is officially 14 in KoF, and 18 in Days of Memories, probably because…

See you there, hope the weather’s nice 

Nice, I used to main Vanessa in KOF ‘99 and 2000. Super underrated character, she was tricky AF when you got her down. I felt like the changes they eventually made to her ruined my play style so I had to drop her, but always loved the character. I also got immediate Vanessa vibes from her character design, which…

Oh yeah I’ve done some BJJ, but I definitely can’t go too hard because a lot of my brokenness is directly or indirectly caused by a back injury from years ago that can make grappling pretty uncomfortable at times. It does help strengthen my core and back though, which helps for sure. It’s been a minute since I’ve done…

Nice, get after it! And we’re actually the same age! I started young and went hard (in martial arts as well as several other sports), and between injuries and general wear and tear, I definitely can’t afford to do so anymore haha. I’m pretty much following in the hobbling footsteps of every man on my dad’s side of the…

Oh yeah by no means is it luck. You can go out there, do random stuff, and have a spectacular performance, but it’s in no way a sustainable way to succeed. I’ve always been really interested in taking the fundamentals and warping them into something unique and tricky, which fostered my own love of styles like drunken…

Is Double XP what passes for a good comic these days? They literally just drew out exactly what happened in the meeting! 

That would completely sever your spine 

Because if they didn’t still read them every week then they wouldn’t have anything to bitch about, and that’s really something to bitch about!

I’ve been a big fan of Augustus for a minute. When you really break down his style you can tell that he’s not just going out there and getting random stuff to work, but he has such a great handle on the fundamentals that he’s able to go out there and break the rules.

Sure on one hand, but there really wasn’t a lot of time for him to do much, and normally you don’t have to worry about a spin kick coming in the other direction, or much else in the way of a follow up attack when you catch a kick because the kicker is usually worried about a counter themselves. If you look at other…
