Wait, I thought what you call "Cataclysm Theory" was just, like, canon. I've literally never heard another story bridging MM and MMX. How much has Capcom said about this?

There is currently no canon story explaining what happened in the century between Mega Man and Mega Man X, and I honestly don’t expect them to ever bridge the gap. Giving Rock a canonical fate, whether it’s dying before X’s time or living on in a future that’s too advanced for him, would cast a dark shadow over the character’s continued appearances in the relatively upbeat Classic series

Inafune also explicitly deconfirmed the Cataclysm Theory all the way back in 2008, saying Zero just isn’t that kind of guy. Which, you know, makes sense. As much as fans liked to speculate about it, I don’t think most people would be happy to know that the cool new hero from the later games straight up murdered the entire original cast

WHOOOOOOF

SO BIG POST Y’ALL.

My Rockman X Anniversary Collection Soundtrack made it in today! Many thanks to my beloved husband Zeekun for getting this for me while I finished my shift up at work. (It was registered air-mail, so I had to send someone to sign for it for me!) Ok, so right into it- there is SO much going on here and I may have to make double-posts to fit it all in.

So since I ordered the ‘First Press’ I got a special sleeve that had that AMAZING ARTWORK of the four hunters all doing their little gig (I still swear that image of X on the special sleeve alone was worth the 40 dollars I paid to get this thing. I love seeing him happy, damnit.) Inside the sleeve is the CD in it’s standard packaging.

The tambourine wielding Met is still present too! Considering I once cosplayed as a giant Met at a few Otakons, and when I was in WAS we had a ‘pet’ Metool we named ‘Tooley’, it’s kinda like my past was coming back to greet me. Can I be considered the Met? I will gladly shake a little tambourine around if I get to jam with X. C’mon now.

So there’s no way they didn’t know some of us were going to import the CD. Why would you include the forward from singer/writer of the English version of Re;Future IN ENGLISH if you didn’t expect non-Japanese people to import it?! THE FACT THAT SHE’S AN X FANGIRL MAKES ME GIDDY AS SHIT.

The art in the booklet is basically CD-sized versions of the art for MMXLC 1 and 2 and then some of the Mavericks behind the CD… The CD itself though… Hoooo nelly..

Ok, easily, this is the most gawddamned beautiful CD I now own. It’s got metallic blue circuitry accents and X in full without that text over him and– NNNNHhhhggg… I can’t. This was so worth it. And the crazy thing was, when I first found out about the CD and saw the original image of them all playing and performing, I was like “God, fuggin’ a. What if they did a Miku/Squid-Sisters like concert and literally had hologram versions of them play at a real venue?” For whatever reason, I could imagine X staring at the crowd with his guitar with a happy, slightly cocky grin– and then later when I got into that MM Media Creators discord and found THIS IMAGE it was literally what I saw in my head just days before and admittedly I LOST MY SHIT. This happens to me wayyyy too frequently but that is another time. @_@;; Anyhow– what I was hoping for- aside X being.. well, X, and making wolfens nosebleed everywhere– were the english lyrics for Re;Future.

SO AGAIN IN TYPICAL CAPCOM FASHION- They had their Localization director write/translate Re;Future from Japanese to English and then later sing it as well. From what I understand, they also had some issues with recording and it lost some audio quality, some of which they had t manually restore- but from what I understand, Miss Hsu is not a native English speaker so there’s some mispronunciations here and there. Zero and I were trying to get lyrics down for DAYS but we kept mis-guessing what was being said- so since my CD was in the states on Sunday night, we decided to wait till we had official lyrics. SO glad we did, cause I think our ‘hints’ at X9 lie in this song and it’s lyrics.

At first, with the ‘blasting through anything’, especially given you have to use X to blast through the credits to get this song to unlock and play, I was like “OK, THIS IS X SINGING. Well not literally BUT IT’S HIS PERSPECTIVE.” This has happened before, RockmanHolic’s Re:Loaded was sung from X’s perspective even though it was a girl singing. So there’s that.

Then as I was listening, I was mis-hearing lyrics, I was thinking she was saying ‘purple crystal’ and ‘purple heart’ which made me think of Iris- especially if you play X Challenge mode volume 1 and get to the final fight- I was like “OMFG, what if we’re getting Iris back for X9?!” That may still happen based on X Challenge mode, but still. Everything else just coincided with X so strongly, so I was still torn. Plus, the achievement you get for unlocking Re;Future is called “Identity Erased”… And given we have new Giga Armor toys where X has a Rush of his own and in MvCI he slides just like Classic’s Rock does, Iiii.. I’m starting to wonder if we’re looking at the starts of a Retcon and they’re going to confirm X and Rock are one and the same. I’ve got other stuff that points at that, I’m working on a video explaining it all, so when I’m done I’ll explain more. Anyhow…

I figure if anyone wants a crack, here’s the Japanese lyrics. I can’t read a lick of ‘em (legit, only things I can read in Japanese are “Rockman”, “X”, and “Zero”. That. Is. It.) so if like, Sky or anybody else who has knowledge wants to see if they match up to the English lyrics, be my guest! My friend Alkaid of over-ti.me already has these, so I’m sure she’s probably gonna be getting her buddies in to take a crack at these sometime soon. For now, I wrote-out the English lyrics if you guys wanna copy-paste them, etc. Fragments of me lie in the darkness waiting to be found All I see around me are shadows, No matter how I may try, and so I keep on looking to find a light that will guide me, I won’t give up the fight Why am I here? What is my purpose?

Running for all I’m worth, I shout Reaching ahead I throw my arms to the wind Even if it takes all I have, With the last of my voice I’ll cry…… I’ll call with all of my soul

This sparkling uncontainable light Spilling over a brand new world Its brightness dazzles, dizzying and blinding But I don’t wanna close my eyes or look away All these boundless feelings Cascading over a brand new world I’ll keep them with me for just a little bit longer I’ll keep them safe here until the next world arrives

At long last I found my answers waiting in the darkness I know why I’m here and my purpose I won’t return to that loneliness, and so I’ll keep pushing onwards Blasting through anything that tries to stand in my way I will fight, I will! Even by myself or for a barren world

Two lights shine brightly showing me the way, and I take courage the they have given me to fight for what I truly believe Nothing can stop me!

Running for all I’m worth, I shout Reaching ahead, I throw my arms to the wind Even if it takes all I have, With the last of my voice I’ll cry…… I’ll call with all of my soul

This strongly beating hopeful heart Filled to the brim by a brand new world Through people’s kindness it learned of warmth and yet It wasn’t whole until it learned what peace was at last This utopic brand new world Filled to the brim with hopeful light There’s no going back – not for me, there’s only forwards Until that day when the world of our dreams arrives

Whew. Huuuge post! Thanks guys! Wolfie out! ^_^ Now, remember, we plan on streaming more MMXLC tonight and tomorrow, over at my Twitch Channel (twitch.tv/wolfshadow6) so feel free to drop over tonight or tomorrow! Zero and I plan on going through all the games and getting ALL the achievements!

At the end of the Teen Titans G* movie there’s an after credit scene that teases the original Teen Titans coming back

Yeah!

The fact that the date keeps getting pushed back further and further, in its own way, indicates that we’ve been throwing sand in Team Cable’s gears. But the whole war of attrition thing is definitely taking its toll.

@empressreborn has a point on how we may have to focus more of our efforts on the midterm election.

🚨This is a Red Alert for net neutrality 🚨

Last December, the FCC voted to to kill net neutrality. If we do not take action, this will kill the free and open internet as we know it. The internet needs you—all of you—to make sure your voices are heard NOW.

We need all hands on deck for this one. It may be our last chance. If you’re feeling under-informed and overwhelmed about why net neutrality is so incredibly important, we have this handy guide just for you.

Here’s what you can do to save the internet:

  • In mid-May, the Senate will vote on a resolution to overrule the FCC using the Congressional Review Act (CRA). We only need one more vote in the Senate to win. Write or call your Senators or Representatives. You can also text BATTLE to 384-387 to get more information on how to write to your reps. You can do this, Tumblr.
  • Join us and dozens of your other favorite companies like Etsy, Vimeo, Reddit, and GitHub to raise awareness with the Red Alert campaign being run by Battle for the Net. Just add this small widget to your Tumblr to let your followers know how they can contact their reps. It’s as easy as copying and pasting the small line of code right into the customize theme page on the web.

This is important. This matters. It’s up to you to help.

stop scrolling!

this is absolutely urgent.

we’ve only got 20 days until the repeal of net neutrality goes into effect! do not forget about this issue! it will affect every single person who uses tumblr and other social media!

Now, there is a bill that would reverse the FCC’s decision to repeal net neutrality. We only need one more vote to make it happen! Get to calling your senators, folks! Don’t let these greedy, laizzes-faire assholes take away the web that connects us all, provides coping mechanisms, and platforms that inform the people.

Six months ago, Hurricane Maria devastated Puerto Rico. While most of the island now has running water and electricity, some areas feel forgotten – like Yabucoa, where seventy percent of the town is still without power. Local resident Tomas Castro-Vega has been using a generator to provide power for his family since the hurricane struck. His message to the government in Washington: “We need help. Please help us out.”

Situacion dificil y el gobierno no ayuda, ademas nos esta poniendo mas dificil las cosas con sus leyes.

Stuff I want in new Smash

Sorry for this self-indulgent post, I just get real excited every time they announce one of these

Maybe i’ll have fun with it later and make a bingo board

  • Octoling Skins for Inklings
  • Playable Midna (i’m basic)
  • Keep Lucas in (he’s my main)
  • Give Lucina a new moveset
  • Travis Touchdown playable (Suda51 is dying please give him this)
  • No new amiibo
  • New amiibo
  • Miyu from Star Fox 2 (technically it’s a brand new game right)
  • Story mode
  • Keep Smash Run and make it actually multiplayer
  • Give Pikachu a Detective costume
  • HEAR ME OUT… Dragonborn from Skyrim in some capacity. Bethesda has been so good about giving the Switch third party support and with the previous game(s) Smash is becoming more and more a gaming crossover rather than just a Nintendo crossover.
  • On that last note, Shovel Knight. I don’t think anybody else represents Nindies quite as much.
  • Just kidding Snipper Clips do. Snipper Clips stage please. That shit is cute as hell.

I agree on story mode tho. Bring that back. I missed watching muh Nintendo characters interact with one another with nice looking cutscenes. 

Put protoman or megaman in the mix again

Y’all please reblog because this is fucking terrifying. It’s yet another attempt to sabotage any attempt at the poor receiving any kind of health care. God forbid you ever get fired and can’t declare yourself permanently disabled. 

Make no mistake: people WILL DIE from this. 

Contact your reps however you can. Use Resistbot and more importantly, just spread this shit around because I KNOW there’s a bunch of you on here that are directly affected by this.

Please share far and wide.

It’s murder. Murder by apathy. Murder by politics. Murder by making sick people choose between bankrupting their families or dying to save them from that fate.

There’s a reason why they’re doing this. Why they’re trying to bury the ADA. The ACA. Food stamps. Every social program.

They want to hoard even more money for the rich, for the military industrial complex, for themselves. And they’ll literally kill sick and poor people for that goal. Because we’re nothing to them. We’re not worth a damn thing. If we die? If we go bankrupt? Homeless? Starve? They don’t care. It’s a benefit for their desires to be richer if we’re dead.

This isn’t just politics. This isn’t policy differences. Calling it that santizes and disguises the truth: we, as a people, let other human beings die, starve, go bankrupt and homeless every single day. Those in power are just trying to expand that to more of us now.
