FACT TIME!

Hey, kids! How much do you know about seiyuus? (Japanese voice actors)

A fair bit? Alrighty! Well, here's a question to the ladyfolk out there.

I'm sure you all know this guy?

and this guy

and you might even know THIS guy!

They were all voiced by a fella by name of Toru Furuya -- AKA one of the oldest seiyuus. He's a pretty famous face who's done more than a fair share of characters who ended up with fanbases like the above three. Man's got skills.

Can you guess who else he voiced?

Yep.

The premiere voice o' Mario.

Not just in the anime movie either: all the overseas animated commercials of the time.

And now you will never be able to look at Tuxedo mask again without seeing Mario's face. :D

Uuuuuugh.

I am embarrassed to have such a Strawman Atheist in my family.

It's like--

No. Making jokes about Christians doesn't make you an Atheist. Calling the Bible a book of fairytales doesn't make you an Atheist. What it DOES is make you a prejudiced asswipe. You make the stereotype that bitter old jackasses toss out to make Atheists look bad.

Here's how a real Atheist works, fucknut. They value facts and figures over conjecture, something that can be identified over unfounded lore. Faith makes a Christian or any religious person, skepticism makes an Atheist. They don't feel the need to act snobbish towards those who are in a religion because they're more likely to see it as needless.

And while we're at it--why harp solely on Christianity?! Boy, for somebody who withholds belief in all manner of deities, of which there are far more, you sure love to obsess over mocking a single one in particular!

Furthermore, I'm so blessed to have a Strawman Christian in my family, as well!

Look, man! It's a person's choice to believe or not! The Good Book explicitly states that! Did you ever take a peek at the New Testament? Y'know, the part that matters because it is wherein Jesus dies for the sins of man, the act that defines the religion of Christianity?!?! You cannot hate in the name of the Lord, because the Lord frowns upon hate! Your belief states that he made all life choices and ways of thinking possible, so why would you spit on any viewpoint in this world, you fucking hypocrite?! If the Lord be real, you SHAME him, sir. And you make a kind and peaceful group of people look like intolerant monsters in modern media. SHAME on you.

I'm an Agnostic Theist, okay? I believe there IS some higher power, but I could not tell you what. You are not a real Atheist, you are a bratty bitch who wants to spit at Mommy and Daddy because they made you go to Church. And YOU are not a real Christian, you fucking oaf; you're a hypocrite who twists the words of a very sacred writing to try and justify the blind intolerance that the book itself states on quite a damn number of occassions is not a godly thing to practice!

How about you both stop your dick measuring contests, alright?! They're both TINY. You BOTH lose.

Everyone who SPECIFICALLY picked up Froakie and Charmander both as their X/Y Starters before the 4/8 Smash Stream, reblog!

WE FORESAW IT BEFORE IT HAPPENED

Assuming there's only one of each legendary type of Pokemon, what happens when you catch an incredibly important one?

For example, Xerneas, being the "life guardian" and all that jazz. Does his responsibility become yours? Does he make you and your team immortal so that he never has to lose his master?

Possibilities abound.

Just to lay out what Rock is doing for this.

He is breaking time and space utterly

to summon his brother from the future

his counterpart from several thousand years in the future

himself from an alternate universe

and his alternate universe self's future counterpart

all to unleash a Wave Motion Cannon the likes of which that would make Samus's Zero Laser blush.

...

And Capcom never thought to use this...how, again?

You're not getting the point. Rocket boots are cool, just not when they're in the shape of fucking stilettos. It's obviously a transparent attempt to sex her up and give her heels. They could have just made them into boots like she used to have. Not to mention its completely impractical, try running in high heels sometime.

Oh hi, overly-aggressive individual! :D Nice of you to word your point eloquently.

And I’m afraid you’re missing the point, at least from what I can gather. If you’d take note to look at the actual picture, you’ll notice something that contradicts your point—the attachments aren’t built into the suit. You know how I made the Chell comparison earlier? That’s because they’re like the spring heels she has in the Portal games. To further accentuate the point, there are similar attachments over her wrists, I presume to provide visual justification for buffing her attacks that aren’t kicks, few though they may be. Her normal boots—with no notable built in heels—are quite visible beneath.

Was Samus sexualized further in this design? Yes, as you’d expect from Namco-Bandai. (She no longer has the boobsock effect, but her bust is notably larger.) But aside from that, not much. And furthermore, I’m not seeing any sign of the “thong” line she was sporting before that many found controversial. In fact, if you look at the 3DS picture furthest down on her page, it’s outright gone. Wouldn’t a blatant attempt at sexualization leave something like that in?

As for her being able to “handle” a physical test in any regard, it’s no different than people raising hell over Little Mac punching her out for mocking his height. Because it isn’t like Samus is a superhuman-prowess bounty hunter who’s conquered cosmic atrocities that could snap you like a twig or anything; no, let’s assume she’s that fragile because she’s a woman. You see my point here, right?

Nobody’s looking at the robo-heels and saying “I’d tap that”. If it offers an explanation for buffing her attacks and replacing the piss-poor recovery she had prior so I can actually enjoy playing as one of my favorite videogame heroes in both states, it is an incredibly small price to pay.

Almost forgot

IN B4 the RP blogs and/or fanart of humanized!Pong from Smash.

Someone is going to do it. The only question is who will cave first

[superxmario]

For the record guys

Waluigi and Ashley had a W as their series symbol.

Wario confirmed for return, we can all chill.
