Splatoon 3 Best Nine

With Splatoon 3 10.0 having been released there was the Best Nine feature which shows the weapon power of up to nine weapons however this seems to be ranked battle only on top of which I only have actually used or plan to use 6 weapons total in ranked: Octobrush, Painbrush, Orderbrush, Sloshing Machine, Octobrush Nouveau and in the future Cometz Octobrush so I figured what better way to figure out what other 3 weapons to add to the “best nine” then to hold a random poll on the internet or rather 3 which each being sorted by weapon type so here is the first one for basic shooters with Custom Jet Squelcher and Custom Splattershot Jr

And here is the poll

Vigilantes 12

All right that’s it I’m done beating around the push I’m gonna say it Knuckleduster ISN’T quirkless you see he actually does have a quirk and it’s clearly used in the episode it’s…

Prep Time: Allows the user to be prepared for any situation so long as enough “time” passes see this is actually why eraserhead presumed Knuckleduster was quirkless cause he didn’t expect him to actually have an intellect based quirk…

You know Pop’s actually… pretty good at managing crises she explained everything going on as if it’s no big deal… is that song anime only like the culture festival song in the main series I don’t remember it if it is but… man if it was in the manga Pop is literally a song about Koichi and he just doesn’t get it… also again with the Pop is a “bad singer” comment I don’t get it am I missing something… in regards to her anime voice… the parallel between Pop and Tamao is really neat it explains why Knuckleduster said what he did to Pop a few episodes back definitely learned from his mistakes… man Giran actually helping the heroes in this one moment IDK I always felt like this really added to his character a bit… it sucks that his character was abandoned mostly after the My Villain Academia arc… also weird that they changed this from a phone call to a subtle conversation… wouldn’t it have been easier to animate just one guy talking on the phone… see Knuckleduster is showing off his Batman level prep time by almost killing his daughter all to dispose of the parasite bee and it’s whole swarm ensuring no one was to go through what Tamao has gone through… hey wait isn’t there supposed to be another guy involved in this has a scar and gave trigger to Soga’s group and is in the poster wonder what he’s… OH COME ON!!! Well I guess next episode we really will be bidding farewell to Knuckleduster and Vigilantes season 1…

Random Game

Last year I did a thing where I occasionally picked a game via random Number Generation to play for a certain amount of time now I’m doing that again but slightly revised in that I pick multiple random games and leave it up to a poll to decide which game I play until either I beat it or I decide to change things up… here are the 1st batch of choices:

Pokémon Rangers Shadows of Almia

Dicey Dungeons (switch)

Super Smash Bros 4 Wii U

And Mario Kart Double Dash

Rave Master 1-12

Rave Master Reaction:

1: I read/watched Fairy Tail first and I know a lot of stuff from Rave got reused there so I knew the “Plue is a dog” thing from there started here… but granted Plue definitely looks more like a dog then… A FREAKING FISH!!! I mean come on no gills should give it away BUT IT DOESN’T EVEN HAVE FINS!!! I don’t care if Haru fished Plue up if it doesn’t even look like a Dolphin or a whale you can’t call it a fish…

2: What do you mean you don’t know how to use a sword you just swing it!!! I know it’s probably more complicated but like this is life or death use the basic slash function!!! I know it’s also got 10 forms at a minimum but the he didn’t say this sword” he said “a sword” also isn’t Haru’s sword 10 commandments not 10 powers I know the name is reused for Edo Erza’s weapon in Fairy Tail… but it could just be the 10 form aspect…

also I think I recall Shuda looking more like Cobra from Fairy Tail later… like he definitely doesn’t in these early chapters but I’m pretty sure I recall my reaction to a later appearance of his being like “oh this is where Cobra’s design came from…”

3: Shiba you’ve gotta stop appearing in chapters you’re literally 3 for 3 with getting your ass kicked come on… 

4: You know funnily enough I actually think that Gale’s proper appearance is actually about where I stopped reading initially and I have vague recollections of it being important going through my memory there’s a Hoenheim/Father thing going on with Gale right? I think the “Father” is called King… IDK…

5: Nothing to say

6: Elie huh I’ve got your number I know you’re the “Lucy” of this series and I say this SOLELY to make a pun… a bug is still more logical to call Plue than a fish just saying…

7-8: Nothing to say

9: The ending of chapter 9 implies that the young Musica is the “real” Musica but he’s like a son/grandson of the older drunk one if I recall… he also does join Haru on his journeys too 

10: You thought Plue was a fish at first Haru you don’t get to talk

11: Oh geez I forgot about the Musica family tragedy like most things in Rave no wonder the older musica ended up as a drunk having your whole family wiped out because of a weapon you made would mess anyone up…

12: Why do I feel like young Musica is gonna get Lance’s sword… IDK just feels like something that’d happen…

And now the poll

Big Run Surprise

Plays Big Run late on Saturday

Decides to stop on the next Triumvirate fight…

“Wow that was probably the closest Triumvirate fight I’ve ever done… maybe I’ll get gold tomorrow…

the score I got:

I legitimately had no clue I got the gold at that point I was convinced I still had like 120 ish I guess I just skipped through the point tally or something even wilder is that I made it to the top 14% and I just had no idea at the time…

MHA Final Season + Vigilantes 11

MHA Final Season has been confirmed for October not much to say beyond that… now onto Vigilantes:

I still don’t think Pop Step is that bad of a singer as the anime makes it seem like… this seems a bit much for dance practice surely this won’t backfire…  I still don’t think Pop Step is that bad of a singer here… maybe it’s just cause I’m not as used to Japanese voices… maybe if it’s actually “bad” in the dub I’ll presume that it’s just a language thing… Koichi’s so bad at complementing women he’s actively ruining things for the hat guy… lol eraser head using the first villain he finds as an excuse to get out of big social events definitely a mood… yup the big season finale is what everyone thought it would be… since the manga reached this fight’s conclusion… and for good reason this fight is one of Vigilantes’ best and it’s only just begun…

[greenknightlao]

Keep it then…

I mean if you want it that badly you can have it but like you were trying to throw it at me no?

[greenknightlao]

Well with 7 votes going to yes just the manga AND 2 votes for yes to both anime and manga it seems that I will be reading Rave Master soon… and this time hopefully to completion…

Should I read Rave Master

I tried reading it once a while ago but stopped at some point… kind of want to check out a new series that I’m not aware of it’s spoilers for and feel kind of bad stopping my initial reading of it (I genuinely don’t think I had a “reason” cause like I definitely did the same thing with FE Echoes Shadows of Valentia and Pokemon Moon and Pokemon Y which were around that time) Another question is should I watch the Rave Master anime after reading the manga? I know it’s incomplete which is why I hesitate to do so but figured I’d ask for a second opinion (I don’t like not “completing” something which is why I’m NOT exclusively watching the anime.)

BTW both “Yes” options will be counted together when it comes to me reading the manga or not…

[greenknightlao]

Splatoon 3 3rd kits

I’ll only go over the highlights for me if it’s not interesting I’m not talking about it… good or bad

Splash O Matic: First time this weapon got a 3rd kit in the series surprisingly but after having been an infamous weapon in competitive I guess it was inevitable… however toxic mist + ink storm is kind of meh on this weapon especially when compared to the original and Neo kits… and yes doesn’t have Zipcaster despite the original having it in the trailer… :(

Colorz Aerospray: Rip PG Bronze :( eh burst bomb + splatcolour screen it’s ok I guess… kind of random TBH…

Glamorz Splattershot: Burst Bomb and Kra… wait hold up did they swap the Aerospray and Splattershot kits!!! Well this is so far the best 3rd kit but not for long…

Clawz 96 gal: 96 Gal’s first time getting a 3rd kit and… Well it is better than the OG 96 gal IMO but Angle Shooter + Tacticooler is hard to agree with… I mean there are straight up better tacticooler kits and the 96 deco is pretty good on it’s own so…

Jet Squelcher: Surprisingly also the first 3rd kit here and it has burst bomb which is amazing for it dunno about Splashdown though… I mean it can work if someone gets too close I guess…

Gleamz Blaster: Surprisingly a 3rd kit debut despite being the original blaster what kit will it have? Squid Beakon + Crab Tank… eeeeh

Rapid Blaster Pro: Another 3rd kit debut and It’s just the N-Zap 85’s kit but with worse painting abilities it maaaay have a shorter special gauge but since shooters are the default weapon this one’s going to be ignored by anyone who doesn’t main Rapid Blaster Pro despite the fact that it probably is the best Rapid Blaster Pro kit…

Carbon Roller ANG-L: I’m too lazy to remember the random letters in the Barazushi weapons some are kind of like words in this case but I don’t quite get them all… but I want to point attention to it because in this case I imagine it’s said as “Angle” which WHY WAS THIS WEAPON NOT GIVEN ANGLE SHOOTER COME ON NINTENDO!!! Fizzy Bomb + SUper Chump feels random but TBF Carbon Roller has 2 uniquely solid kits here in Splatoon 3 so… how can you make a good kit for the Carbon Roller now especially without tripping up the other rollers… but kind of lame for a debut 3rd kit…

Planetz Big Swig Roller: Surprised to see a Splatoon 3 debuted weapon get a 3rd kit (besides the Stringer and Splatana) Torpedo + Triple Splashdown doesn’t sound too bad honestly… kind of weird that the OG Roller doesn’t have a 3rd kit… and I doubt it will in 3 but still eh given how awful the Corocoro splat roller was maybe it’s a good thing I mean COME ON giving Splash Wall and Inkzooka to a short ranged weapon what a STUPID thing to do there’s no way they’d…

Oh… 💀

Cometz Octobrush: Hey look the only brush to get a 3rd kit lol and it… IT HAS AUTOBOMB AND KRAKEN ROYALE WHAT!? THIS IS LITERALLY MY DREAM KIT FOR THE OCTOBRUSH (My main in Splatoon 1 and 2 were the Vanilla/Hero Octobrushes and Kraken goes without saying and I have a soft spot for Autobomb honestly) man kind of sucks that the two kits Painbrush got weren’t that great TBH I like the weapon too but alas maybe in Splatoon 4 as I doubt a 3rd kit will ever appear for the Painbrush…

Splat Charger and Splatterscope: Oh wow I guess there’s only 28 3rd kits odd I thought there was gonna be 30 (ok genuinely ignoring the fact that I’m pretending the Painbrush’s 3rd kit doesn’t exist why did they bother counting the scope and non scope as separate kits they genuinely should have just said 29 and been done with it… they’re also LITERALLY the only charger with a 3rd kit) anyways it’s sprinkler + Crab Tank which is a Kensa Charger reference it’s ok… not a charger guy

tri Slosher: A surprising 3rd kit debut Splat Bomb + Splat Screen isn’t bad but like the Nouveau kit is really good…

Hornz Dread Wringer: The 2nd non stringer/splatana Splatoon 3 weapon to get a 3rd kit :) IDK… curling bomb + crab tank looks weird IMO also surprised no 3rd kit for Slosher

Torrentz Hydra Splatling: another 3rd kit debut sprinkler + Big Bubbler a very defensive kit for the Hydra it’s interesting for sure but I still prefer the original TBH…. Though I’m not great with splatlings

Hoofz Dualie Squelchers: third kit debut even WITH the dual squelcher Splat Bomb + Splat Screen ok that’s fine I guess…

Bulbz Tri Stringer: Angle Shooter + Inkjet Inkjets fine angle shooter is angle shooter…

REEF LUX MILK: Torpedo + Booyah Bomb = Menace

Stickerz Splatana Stamper: Autobomb + Booyah Bomb ah the Hydra Splatling but on a mid-short range weapon that’s unique I guess… stamper would probably die more… but also be more menacing…

Splatana Wiper: Curling Bomb + Trizooka… hmm this could be decent but I dunno if this’ll surpass the original or the deco? But it does seem decent

Overall a… majority of weapons I tend to use more got some good kits and even some I don’t sadly though it does seem like 10 star freshness is it’s whole other thing but I genuinely don’t think I’ll be doing that… I’ll stick to my more reasonable goal of 4 starring all weapons and maybe 5 starring ones I enjoy more… also doesn’t seem like weapon power counts total win rate across past rank wins before 10.0 (even in this season) maybe it’s just cause I’m looking at the app data but the only weapons I’ve used in ranked seriously are Octobrush, Orderbrush, Painbrush, Sloshing Machine and Octobrush Nouveau and soon Cometz Octobrush so six total…I might at some point play some S+ games to input a best 9 but we’ll see… could be a good excuse to alternate weapons… to get more 4 stars…

MHA Vigilantes 10

The illusion of free choice… there are spoilers beyond this point there are no spoilers beyond this point… no…

THREE MORE YEARS OF THREE HOUSES DISCOURSE!!!

So a recap to start it off huh… not that surprising given how this season is likely going to end where I inevitably thought it would… ah so now it’s idol huh… guess that’ll be the same until episode 13… or will they change it for 13… is that a new scene with Kuin and Knuckleduster or at the very least reorganized to also appear here don’t think it was here in the manga at least well that’s horrifying… even without knowing the context of the bees I wouldn’t want to be Soga in that moment… Koichi realizes the illusion of free choice: whether or not he encourages Pop or tries to dissuade her it will only lead to three more years of Fire Emblem Three Houses disc… I mean Pop getting mad and hitting him haha… Knuckleduster giving good advice on the first try… or is it… oh that’s going to be horrifying… great good job Koichi that’ll be ANOTHER 3 years of three houses discourse… see the ending theme really did foreshadow this episode Knuckleduster is wandering Naruhata looking for Kuin… or more precisely the bees…

[greenknightlao]

HOW IS THIS REAL

A Splatoon spinoff game it was only a matter of time though TBF guess this and the other news means Splatoon 4 won’t be a thing until 2027 at the earliest… also this should have been in the Switch 2 direct honestly…

ALSO THIRD KITS YEEEEES THE COPE WAS REAL ALL ALONG YES!!!

AND IT SEEMS LIKE IT’LL BE AVAILABLE ON SWITCH 1 AND 2 SO YOU DON’T NEED TO PAY $10-20US FOR WHAT SHOULD BE FOR FREE!!! Oh and Urchin Underpass is back too I guess which makes Saltspray rig the only map to not return from Splatoon 1 if I recall correctly… (Debatable whether or not this should have been in either the switch 1 or 2 direct honestly they may not have had a release date planned back then…)

Also 10 star freshness huh… you know I reeaaaally hope this means a shortened path to 5 star weapons… cause like getting to 5 stars is pretty daunting of a task as it is 10 stars would be even worse… I mean least they could do is make he old 5 star 8 star and then have 5,6 and 7 be in between 4 and the old 5 star mark… but I feel like it’ll just be added on and making an even longer grind… well regardless it seems likely that I can take the three weapons I five starred out of retirement again…
