More Azumanga Daioh goodness.

Postby Declan_Vee » Tue Dec 03, 2002 8:29 am

I come across a lot of weird and wonderful things everyday. This takes the cake as far as wonderful is concerned. <a href="http://www.the-underdogs.org/game.php?name=Azutama">Azutama</a> A snowball game featuring the characters from Azumanga Daioh.

It doesn't stop there either... <a href="http://www.anihina.com/azumanga_beach_volleyball.zip">Azumanga Beach Volleyball</a> I'm not sure if this will be much of a rival for DOA Extreme Beach Volleyball. (too many politicians have their heads up their asses), I may never know what it's like :cry:

There's at least one other game aswell. I just can't seem to remember what it was. Anyone got any ideas?

Well, I just played it, and man, is it fun. It's simple, so the fact that it's in Japanese isn't a hinderance at all. The only problem I have with it is that the only characters you can control are Chiyo and Osaka. Oh well, it's still really fun.

Damn, that snowball fighting game just kicks way too much ass. When you get to the last level, you have to fight an oversized version of that yellow/orange psuedo-cat. So freaking funny. And in one of the levels you have to fight Kimura-sensei. Lol.

Azumanga Daioh? Humor knows no gender boundaries. Or something like that.

I like it because it's funny. And there is no nudity, even later. There's just something addicting about it.

Gah! How can you not like Azumanga Daioh! It's benevolently fun! It's the characters, I tell you... The characters! They're great!

Unfortunately I can't play the games right now.. internet is text only.. ugh... but still! That rules!
And why complain that you can only play as Chiyo or Osaka? Do you need anyone else?! :P I would play as Osaka anyway even if there ewre more characters on the strict reason that she is way too much like my girlfriend.. it's creepy! :P

*points left* Garylisk, it's my second favorite series. It's tons o fun. But I've heard that most people who like it are "fanboys", and since there isn't any giant bazoomage (just believable bazoomage) or nudity in the series, I still wonder what they're fanboys of. :P I'll just try not to think about it.

That said, errrr, I don't really have any interest in volleyball fanservice games, but thanks. ;)

I'm a fanboy of the fact that it's one of the funniest series's I've ever seen, japanese or american, animated or live action. It is just too damn funny. Seems like every time Osaka so much as opens her mouth, something hilarious pops out. And the cat biting Sakaki! That just never, ever gets old.

I don't see how it could even compare to family guy in the comedy department.
So in other words, one part of the community is waging war on another part of the community because they take their community seriously enough to want to do so. Then they tell the powerless side to get over the loss cause it's just an online community. I'm glad people make so much sense." -- Tab

I agree. Azumanga Daioh is definitely more highbrow.

And what's wrong with fanboys liking a show without fanservice? It's probably the essence of fan(-boy)dom, being crazy about a show because of things like plot and content, not bullets and mammary matter.

wouldn't high-brow be the opposite of low-brow? In that case, wouldn't high-brow generally be considered better? I like it better anyway. Crude toilet-humor type jokes only go so far before they get lame.
