Really? I got the impression he still liked it.

I felt the same way at first I admit, but its best that people understand how neither is all that great.

To be fair "better than the anime" is an incredibly low bar to clear. Just because the manga cleared it doesn't necessarily mean it was ever good.

Both manga and anime have their flaws. Plus it really kind of shoves Kale into broken territory for her to wipe out multiple universes of powerful fighters easy.

Not really. Kale is close in power to Golden Freeza who, at once point in time, was more powerful than Blueku. Godku was strong enough to force Beerus to use 70% of his power (although this was apparently retconned but whatever) and Blueku at the time he fought Goldeeza was probably stronger than when he fought Beerus (not to mention SSB being a stronger transformation). All of that points to Goldeeza being relatively close to GoD-tier which means Kale was relatively close to it. As such, anyone not on a similar level should logically be unable to put up any real resistance.

To put it in other words, they're all jobbers anyway so you might as well clean house now since they're doing their job one way or the other.

For those of you who have missed Renegade for Life, Lani did a live version of it earlier today, which will probably be going on youtube later.

Zito stopped doing it because he hated it, but Taka's rebooting it with Gaijin.

I was wondering when they'd put these archives up though; guess it was because of all the conventions.

speaking of archives, is it me or are there things missing from their Twitch? not very familiar with it.

Twitch only keeps its archives for I think a month after they're put up. You can watch all their streamed stuff on their Stream Four Star channel.

The next long playthrough on the gaming channel looks like it is Spider man with Lani and Kaiser. That's at least what they are recording/streaming today.

Good, I'd like to see them play that seriously.

Glad Kaiser's getting a break after Episode 60.

Oh nice, a Spider-Man playthrough is just what I wanted to see.

It's a rough but okay first episode but I'm giving it the 3 episode rule and I'm interested enough to want to see more.

Akio's voice is pretty grating though.

Wasn't expecting Panchi to be a woman, given the Dr. Girlfriend-like voice and androgynous body type.

I really didn't like Krosecz as Akio. I don't think he has a really convincing "kid voice."

I'm glad to see this series back, I was a fan and even a patreon backer in 2016 & 2017 when Krosecz was running it before becoming part of Team Four Star. I was actually about to launch an article on it and was going to try to drum up some attention for the show on the wiki right when Krosecz announced that he was putting it on hold and was then going to be rebooting it as he started working more with Team Four Star's various projects.

I did do a quick launch of an article for the show just now, (Fist Master) although it's fairly short and devoid of tropes so far. For those curious, the article also contains links to the first two episodes Krosecz did in the show's original run, (they're now unlisted on youtube, so they can only be seen with a direct link to the videos) if you feel like taking a look at them.

It's definitely rough, and I'm not entirely sure what it's trying to be. From the pilot it seems like it's just AU Dragon Ball.

I found the bit with the cartoon Akio was watching to be funny, but that's the only joke that stuck with me.

I also can't tell if this is meant to be a Sadist Show, it seems to be leaning that way however.

You know, I used to love TFS at the Table but now that I've been playing D&D myself or a while, Zito's endless parade of bullshit is pissing me off more and more.

In one episode alone, he negated a Nat 20 attack roll (which should have just been VS AC) with a Nat 20 of his own (which I call BS on), stated that Cunning Action was once-per-day which makes the Rogue Class 100% useless (not helped by the fact that Grant has no idea how his character works in combat and thus never applies Sneak Attack when he should be getting it frequently), and then made Grant roll Animal Handling to move his mount when absolutely no one had to do that at any point before this.

And I'm only about a third of the way through the fucking episode. Goddammit, Zito.

Wow, that sounds like terrible D Ming.

Cunning Action once per day? What a moron.

I was planning on checking that out once I had some more time, but that sounds really frustrating.
