The Worst New Fighting Game Reveals a Terrible Trend That Won't Go Away

Video game adaptions of anime have had a rough go of things in recent years, and there doesn't seem to be any indication of it getting better.

Okay but really, why are they all boring 3D fighters that have barely changed since the PS2 era?

    But seriously, I wasn’t aware that there was a TWEWY anime…

    I absolutely love the games, and the anime is just… Bad. I couldn’t stomache watching more than the first two episodes. I suppose there’s the off chance it “gets good”, but somehow they took a game that has one of the most bangin’ soundtracks of its era and made an anime that is mostly talking with basically no music and little to no ambiance. The flair and style is just completely absent in a franchise that literally built game mechanics around style.

    Show her the P4 anime. It’s really, really good. It makes me wonder how the P5 anime shit the bed so hard. I imagine the answer is different studios, but I haven’t really looked into it.

      Damn, well, I think I’m gonna give it a chance to TWEWY anime regardless, I mean, I’m very forgiving because I automatically tag all these adaptations as “game is 1000 better” lol.

      Show her the P4 anime. It’s really, really good.

      I will! But I first need to play it 😅
