They could mean something like Contra.

>>137257365
Shooting games refers to shoot'em up, dumbass.

Shmups are shooting games and Final Fantasy came out in 1987 you fucktard.

>>137257493
>final fantasy being spoken about over dragon quest
Yes, 1 final fantasy title, vs 3 dragon quest titles, you dick head.

>>137257472
Seems about right.

>>137257484
It's all in context, faggot since most were arcade titles not released on the NES or FC. which they are talking directly about the NES.

>>137257581
It's saying he prefers FF over DQ what the fuck don't you understand?

>>137257581
Final Fantasy would be the new hotness then, it makes sense

>>137257594
It does not, it says he is a Final Fantasy fan, and knows nothing about DQ.

>>137257606
Dragon Quest 3 was newer then Final Fantasy. So you are wrong there.

>>137257581
Are you implying the famicom didn't have STGs?

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say the writer knows more than Anon about what Japanese schoolboys were talking about in 1988.

>>137257642
But the series is newer

You are all literal faggots. ask a question and get pounded by faggots who don't even leave their house.

fuck all of you.

>>137257739
unlikely considering he is 18.

>>137257944
>Hey Nii-san what was everyone playing in 1988

Are you fucking kidding me

>>137257995
>believing something without first hand experience
typical boomer
old man you are too old to be here.

only the original final fantasy would've been better than the dragon quest. ff2 was so shit nobody defends it aside for acknowledging it as an experimental game that was shit and never repeated.

I stopped caring about 'details' when MC thought it was a great idea to walk around in his "murder clothes" in broad daylight instead of asking and waiting for new clothes. I'm also getting the feeling that the modern timeline is less thought out that the past timeline.

>>137257944
Who's 18?

>>137257944
>Sanbe
>18
>been doing manga since 2001

>>137258354

You do realize the author of Fate wrote KnK when he was 15, right?
You do realize Sword Arts Online was written by a 15 year old, right?

>>137258435
>You do realize Sword Arts Online was written by a 15 year old, right?
Stop. No, it wasn't, so stop repeating it.

>>137258435
Well, you have a point.
I guess it's safe to assume that Sanbe was 3 years old when he made Testarotho.

Nigga I was getting my ecchi manga published before I could walk.

What was the live thread reaction to this? I don't read the manga but I can confidently say the series has jumped the shark and landed into a wildfire.

>>137257581
FFI was a huge hit you moron. I was born in '88 and was playing it. and I couldn't even read.
>>137258013
FFII was fun as all hell. The remake was even better, better than pretty much every other remake they've been crapping out.

>>137258435
>You do realize Sword Arts Online was written by a 15 year old, right?
He was in his mid 20s when he wrote the first version of it for a contest. The version that was actually published and made into an anime was written in his 30s.

You can literally look up his fucking age on wikipedia and confirm this, yet SAOtards keep spreading this myth.

>>137258687
I thought the chocolate stealing shit was stupider.

>>137258687
does it bother anyone else that the characters sometimes like like they're from Mitsudomoe?

>>137257365
Duck Hunt, dumbass

>>137258775

She is a woman so she could have blown that way out of proportion.

>>137258687
Pretty much the same. Lots of discussion/shitposting about Airi being both a Mary Sue and stupid as fuck and, more than anything, the chocolate story.

>>137258507
Well it sure looks like it was drawn by a 3 years old.

>>137258124
>I'm also getting the feeling that the modern timeline is less thought out that the past timeline.

Pretty much, the manga is at its best in the second part of 1988 which should start in this week's episode but it's still far from perfect. Really entertaining anyway.

>>137258687
People have been saying that the past was the best part of the manga so when I saw him going back to the present I dropped my expectations a bit.

Still, didn't think it'd get this stupid.

>>137259070

I've largely avoided the threads because spoilers, but at this point I'm considering dropping the series after the 2nd time jump back or sooner. I was mindfucked by how the series instantly hit PSO anime tiers of stupid.

>>137259149
Nah keep watching. Unless the adaptation somehow fucks everything up, the second run in 1988 is going to be pretty good.

>>137258435
You do realise that it's 2016, if Sanbe was 18, he'd have been 3 when he did Testarotho.

>>137257365
but they did mention dragon quest in episode 2

>>137259324
>it's 2016!!!!!

>>137257365
I don't know about Japan but in Philippines there were the FInal Fantasy cliques and the Kingdom Hearts cliques so I guess it's the same thing in Japan but Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest.

>>137260336
FF wasn't out for even a year at the time, DQ was out and had a newer title. was also a superior series

>>137258775
This has already been explained multiple times.

>>137257365
>>Final Fantasy being spoken about over Dragon Quest
unlikly but not impossible

>people saying the fire was stupid
What the fuck do you people want? The killer followed her home and lit her house on fire. If you're talking about why she opened the door instead of jumping out her window, then I can agree with that. You could potentially argue that she didn't fully understand the situation, but it's doubtful.

>>137260505
It doesn't matter how many times you explain it, it was dumb as fuck.

>>137260725

A house fire is high profile. It was further compounded by surprise buttsex text message.

>>137260725
It's pretty stupid that her entire house would light up without her or anyone else noticing. Fire spreads fast but not that fast.

>>137260795
Alright, whatever.

>>137260505
>>137260795

Even if you were to accept that it wasn't dumb as fuck, her application of the story to the situation was also dumb as fuck since (1) shes comparing a labor dispute to a murder case with possible implications of conspiracy (2) her father divorcing her mother and leaving the household was entirely his choice (3) she was defending her dad's decision to break up and leave because she knew he didn't steal a candy bar. He left her because of a candy bar, and she defends it.

>>137260883

It was obviously one of those pre-World War 2 houses which survived the bombs. There will be a further in depth explanation that an American bomb was actually underneath the house the entire time and the killer knew about this because he time traveled to 1945 to save the Emperor's life, and was thus blessed with immortal life because the Emperor's bloodline is the source of all time travel shenanigans.

>>137257581
Are you implying Final Fantasy 1 wasn't a big deal and that the NES didn't have an stg library?

>>137260859
>>137260883
If I recall correctly this will be explained in a little bit.

>>137261019
>her application of the story to the situation
Oh, this is what everyone's up in arms over? Ok, that makes more sense. I thought there were still people who didn't understand that the act of stealing has no distinction/tiers in the eyes of the Japanese public, whereas other people would eventually get over petty theft.

>>137261196
*other places would have people that

>>137261177

I can explain it now.

>Killer used mom's phone to further deflect police
>Killer is establishing a pattern of violent criminal behavior
>Now that MC is on the loose, killer has to make a grand display to motivate the police and the media to chase him down

Its still crazy stupid for the story to take these twists and turns.

>>137261196

Authorial intent is obviously to point out systematic injustices and use that as a base for Japanese citizens to act independent of what this flawed manipulative society taught them. That doesn't make the entire scenario easier to digest. She might as well have said her dad was abducted by UFOs and nobody believed him which is why she wanted to give this one guy a chance.

I think he was talking about pics related.

>>137261242
You pretty much nailed it. There's still one more element related to why the fire spread so quickly that will also be explained in a bit.

Everyone get what are they trying to convey but the chocolate part is still make me grin.

Honestly, I just hate dialogue that's like

>HEY BRO DID YOU WATCH [topical television show from this time period]
>NAH BRO I WAS TOO BUSY PLAYING [topical video game from this time period]

It's just a really lazy way to set the tone of an era.
Yeah, it's 1988, Liveman and Kamen Rider Black are airing. Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy are taking baby steps. You don't need to bring it up so clumsily.

>Shooting games

They actually meant "Shooters"

Do you know Twin Bee? Gradius? Well, those types of games. Naturally a genre almost, if not dead nowadays
