    Someone already submitted Senran chars lol
    Here are some of my criticisms I have with the first Senran Kagura anime (the dub at least) to see if you agree with me or not:
    • It's rushed - We are not given any time to connect with the characters and we don't get the know them, we are just immediately introduced to them and then we get to them fighting the Hebijo students. Although we are given their backgrounds which for the most part are respectful to the original game (except Hikage) but at the same time they just feel forced, as if the anime is desperate to get you to care about them. In comparison Burst goes the long way in deconstructing the line between good and evil to show that perhaps there really isn't that much different through multiple character interactions and perspectives and showing how their personalities clash while the anime just has the Hanzou and Hebijo girls just be like this 'we are friends and we get along well with each other' mentality which on the surface seems to good but it's not realistic, their clashing personalities would actually get them into a lot of conflict with each other just like real friendships can do, and that actually happened in the game believe it or not; in NInja Flash though you get zilch of that!!
    • Characters shouldn't be able to read kanji - looking at the backgrounds of all the characters I would say the only characters who would be totally fluent with kanji would be Ikaruga, Haruka, Yagyu, and Homura (yes, literally Homjira should have better kanji skills than Asuka); the rest's skills would be either shaky or non-existent, especially with the spidery written kanji on the Secret Ninja Scroll
    • Voices are hit or miss - Sure, some of the VAs are able to portray the characters to which they respect the original material like Ikaruga, Katsuragi, Yomi, Haruka, and to my surprise Homura; however there are some VA's that I would change out like for Hibari and Hikage, honestly it would be better if Cherumi Leigh were voicing Hibari (and using third person like in the original) and either Christina Stroup or Molly Searcy were voicing Hikage since they have voiced characters that have similar personalities. And maybe to spice things up, perhaps Teri Rogers should voice Haruka with a French accent
    • Not enough swearing - Not to say that I promote it but it's hard to deny that some of these characters should be total pottymouths and dropping swears like no tomorrow. I was able to count only 34 swears and most of them have either mild to medium harshness in my opinion. I'm just saying this because Funimation has produced more crasser dubs than this, Yu Yu Hakusho and Black Lagoon have swears littered throughout, and in Panty & Stocking there are over 375 clips of characters just using the f word alone. The VAs are definitely not against swearing after all, Monica Rial (Homura's VA) was Stocking after all, and Brittney Karbowsky has been shown to have a potty mouth in outtake reels
    • Is tone deaf when it comes to fights and violence - I really to wonder if the people making it ever watched an episode of Dragon Ball in their lives. Now to be fair the original game didn't show any gore when fighting which can be mostly forgiven because video game has its programmed limitations on what it can be shown and even made up for that by other means, in an anime however there are no limitation and you can go all out!! Like show bruises, cuts, broken bones, sudden amputation, evisceration, decapitation, anything to sate my intense battle loving self. I mean the beginning explicitly said that shinobi did assassinations, so what's wrong with killing a couple of red shirts in brutal ways? And another thing that I moan about the battles is that girls underwear for their combat outfits are all wrong!! 3DS Burst has explicitly specific underwear for their combat outfits that for the most part feel consistent with what they are wearing but in the anime they simply ignore all that and go with the default swimsuits of the games with only being concerned about showing boobage. I think the scene where Yagyuu enters the shinobi kekkai with Hibari and Haruka is the most egregious example, we are told that it's risky for outsiders to enter a shinobi barrier and what happens with Yagyuu? She gets hospitalized for some vague and unexplained tiredness, you know they could be more explicit with the reasons not to enter a shinobi kekkai, like maybe Yagyuu get some severe burns, loses a limb, or something, just any more relatable injury than just whatever we got here. Honestly, Guren no Hebi is more in line with the Senran Kagura I want to see with an adaptation
    • Good ideas, poor execution - I definitely will admit that while the Linked Shinobi Barrier is a good idea on paper, I just don't think it was executed well enough. I mean considering its weakness is that it can destabilize when one of the shinobi who created that barrier gets defeated, it's rather dumb have those shinobi fight in the first place. that's not to mention that you need those shinobi to be in the right mindset. You know what would be a better idea? Have multiple puppets controlled by Haruka be the ones to create the barrier, it would solve both problems because she can share her mind between the puppets and if a puppet gets destroyed she can easily make another take its place. Also, instead of having the barrier be one on one fights, why not have a series of barriers the characters need to go through with enemies of increasing strength in order to get to Haruka like with how Castlevania is set up. Another thing in poor execution is Asuka's 'inner strength', we really don't see it but instead told about it, like we never get any hint about it so the final fight scene comes off as Deus ex Machina when they defeat Dogen. If we compare Asuka to Ichigo for a moment, we can definitely see that he has an inner strength with White Zangetsu, within the Soul Society arc there is a lot of littered foreshadowing on his hollow side, so when it appears when Ichigo defeats Kenpachi, it's feels much more satisfying to see
    This is chapter 1 of Kagura X Kagura:

    I didn't say nude snuggling was out of the picture, but I'll be honest here, I really do think there are more fullfilling ways to be intimate with your partner without needing to do the horizontal tango. Like isn't it enough to earn your partner's trust to live at their house and be able to touch them (or possibly bathe with them)? It just feels irresponsible to be doing the horizontal tango and not be willing to have a kid. Yes, I know condoms and contraceptives exists, but really to avoid any early pregnancy or any STDs the answer is much simpler than that, DON'T HAVE SEX IN THE FIRST PLACE!!!

    Trust me when I say that you don't need it in order to feel intimate, and I'm you you'll feel more rewarded in the end with you and your partner not seeing each other as different from the other.

    This is also an interesting video, maybe give it a watch:

    OG imo, nothing beats the original-

    I can understand why the original is liked, it's iconic after all, although I think Asuka for the other design can represent her maturing as a character as she gains more of a perspective of her world.
    What did you think on my comment about Estival Versus and Peach Beach Splash being non-canon and all of the endings in Shinovi Versus being canon?
    Gohan?_You're_still_alive?
    Gohan?_You're_still_alive?
    If you'd assume Estival Versus to be non-canon, that will render any Naraku Estival feats useless.

    Well, she is in Burst Re:Newal as DLC, but still.

    Your comment would likely be odd imo, EV and PBS /should/ be canon to Timeline 2. No matter how much we wish it wasn't story wise, is there something saying that it wouldn't be?
    Hagane_no_Saiyajin
    Hagane_no_Saiyajin
    I'm not trying to deny that those two games should be included in timeline 2, it's just that considering the circumstances surrounding how they made they just feel like spin-offs or a what if to me. Of course being spin-off does not automatically a game non-canon, the Mario series has a ton of spin offs and they call can be considered canon since the games reference each other. A friend of mine even created a timeline of the events of the Mario games by piecing it all together, and I can tell you that it's loaded.
