Fire Emblem: Three Houses introduces Dorothea
Posted on 5 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in News, Switch, Videos | 0 comments
The official Japanese Fire Emblem Twitter account has introduced another character in Three Houses today. Dorothea, voiced by Juri Nagatsuma, is a member of the Black Eagles. She was the apprentice of a famous opera singer before coming to the Monastery. Since she was also a member of the Mittelfrank Opera company, she has a great deal of admiration for Manuela. She’s the only commoner in the Black Eagle house, which makes her feel uncomfortable to a certain degree, but it also makes her treat everyone as an equal, no matter their social standing.
Here’s a closer look at Dorothea, including a clip of her talking to Byleth, before she finds out that he’s a teacher:

A new teaser countdown site has appeared online that corresponds with the upcoming RPG title Omega Labyrinth Life, coming with the “title” of Omega Labyrinth 0083 Stardust Memory.
While it is unclear what the title might be referring to, Gematsu has translated the other text on the site. For the countdown itself, the tagline “Oppai! I’ve come home!” can be deciphered, while also making reference to an “Operation Star Breasts”.
According to the site, this mission is intended to rain breasts down upon the earth and make the greatness of breasts more widely known to people.
The countdown is set to end on May 14th at 17:00 JST, at which time another teaser site will be opened up with more new information on the title.

[Review] Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age
Posted on 5 years ago by Campbell(@CampbellSGill) in Reviews, Switch | 0 comments
System: Switch
Release date: April 30, 2019
Developer: Square Enix / Virtuos
Publisher: Square Enix
If you’ve ever watched the Star Wars prequel trilogy and thought “Man, this would be so much better if it were a Japanese role playing game,” then Final Fantasy XII is the game for you. With its fusion of medieval and sci-fi ideas in its setting and its heavy political overtones, it easily draws plenty of comparisons to George Lucas’s iconic space operas – it even comes complete with an evil Senate-led Empire and a plucky young orphan destined to take it down. Also like the prequel trilogy, Final Fantasy XII has been a point of contention for its series’ fans ever since its first release on the PS2 in 2006. Its unconventional real-time combat was a far cry from the classic turn-based battles that had defined the franchise up to that point, and the entire core structure of its politically charged storytelling and combat management felt like a dramatic change from traditional Final Fantasy experiences.
