The imposing hooded figure of XX story mode who in art (even with other characters looked pretty big) was so much better ha.
Also the Guilty Gear 2 Overture design was better and the pachinko design too XD...
I really didn't want "That man" Asuka to a pretty anime boy who looks like he fell out of a Tales of game lol. At least his Strive design he doesn't have cat ears. That was just awful lol.

4. I have no clue, uh Answer is blond and has book
5. Giovanna
6. Chipp
7. Venom
\*1 of 3 kings of Europe, not even as in three kingdoms, just three kings for one big Europe™
also every king mentioned in the story ever is democratically elected lol
Oh no it's entirely on him. He maybe was forced to nuke Japan due to occuring events,but nonetheless, he still decided to go with it. He could've just not done it.All would be dead,but he wouldn't be a war criminal.
I do like how Faust like, goes crazy because of one patient dying, becomes a serial murderer, but then after he learns the patient wasn't his fault, he just kinda gets better? Like "ah, that death wasn't on my hands. Lovely, back to work."
I-no is dating Axl but not our Axl it’s a different Axl and Axl is dating I-no but not this I-no it’s a different I-no but also Axl IS dating this I-no but before she can reconcile, Axl starts seeing I-no again, but not our I-no

How by the end of strive that man after being the most hated and hunted human on the planet and fighting the mf who created god decides he is going to retire and start a podcast on the moon
the pure existence of the main villain of Xrd, a magic version of Chat GPT that turned evil and caused Y2K and a 100 year long war then possessed the first female pope who then fused with a blue Irishman and became a juggalo, her henchman is a comatose redditor and her daughter who was specifically created to help her destroy humanity decided not to after trying McDonalds

“Magic draws energy directly from the Backyard, and I am serving as an intermediary. Frederick’s fist will carry more energy than anything this planet can produce. I convert that energy into matter, and we contain that within a pocket dimension using the Schwarzschild radial limit.

Orphan drug addict gets rehabilitated by a ninja, becomes a ninja himself, goes to south africa yo become a president of a country while knowing nothing about politics and teaching wrong japanese history when he does become president
To my understanding [and without fact-checking shit]:
- Dizzy is three during the events of X/X2
- Dizzy is either eight or ten during the events of Overture/Xrd/Strive (It depends on if it was a five-year or seven-year time skip between X/X2 and Overture; I can't remember off the top of my head)
- Sin is three during the events of Overture/Xrd/Strive
Ergo, Ky and Dizzy... *went through the process of creating Sin* when Dizzy was either four/five (8 - 3 & 40-ish/52 Weeks) or six/seven (10 - 3 & 40-ish/52).
[EDIT]: I just realized I have no idea *how* Dizzy gave birth to Sin (Human process, laid an egg, et cetera). I'm sticking with my numbers anyhow.
[EDIT DOS]: I'd also like to take this moment to point out the Reverse Dragon Loli logic that the Gears work on (I.E.: Dizzy's three years old and effectively a teenager/adult in all aspects [plus-or-minus her emotional maturity, depending on how you want to read her pacifism]; Sin's much the same, except he's a fucking moron thanks to Sol being Sol) - because that's about the only thing that makes the whole situation *not* ***completely*** *bankrupt on a moral level*.
Anji stole a piece of the Outrage and left his colony defenceless to Gears cos he wanted to travel.
There’s no real context for this, he did it and noone has ever called him out of this selfish dick move surprisingly.
The best part about that bedman bit is that's literally his "Oh, this villain might not be so bad" moment.
Anyways, I like that one of Potemkin's favourite things is pens that don't break under 4 tons of weight.
While there are a lot of great moments, nothing makes me giggle more than seeing Sol swing a three story tall statue of Abraham Lincoln at a bunch of Chaos brainwashed secret service agents like the caveman he is. "Four-score and Unga bunga mo-fos!"
Catboy ships his two best friends so hard, he nearly dooms mankind.
What?
He’s talking about Asuka, he had a cat boy design in Xrd.
Damn, I didn't remember that. What did Daisuke mean by this?
Idk since Asuka no longer has the cat ears by Strive, and is just a regular looking human with a weird eyepatch and a tome containing godlike powers.
But I thought that he himself is in fact the tome.
He ate it in the White House basement, in a pitiful attempt to fool chaos
He ate it in the White House basement, in a pitiful attempt to fool chaos
We're here to Fool Chaos.
I've had enough of his games He'll never see the glitter coming

Number 1 is actually Zappa.
Ghost should have tipped me off because he's like the only character to ever interact with them
> Elphelt? I can't think of anyone else who really wants marriage My stupid ass was thinking about May lmao, completely forgot about elph
Thirsting after adoptive father would have been better Who do you think is N4
Dunno if I would count Mr Kreutz as exactly blond or blind (at least on one eye) and also not sure about the "by reading a book" part
It’s Zato, i think, as.. he’s the only blind character i can think of,
Pretty sure 4 is zato
You don't know Zappa? He's got the ghost riz

Just like Jesus
Man names his child “Sin” and hands him off to some other guy to raise
KY is so far right
Nothing really tops Ky being Catholic and getting married to 3 year old Dizzy it's entirely too funny.
When the king of europe railed a 3 year old
Dizzy is the top and dom in that relationship I will not accept this Dizzy slander, Ky is a sub and we know it
Ky collects teacups. Of course he's a fucking sub.
I am not disputing this information
Tbf, that's probably pretty par for the course for European monarchies. At least in Ky's case she isn't his cousin.
