French doesn't like thick eyebrows confirmed



I don't like the French confirmed!



Famitsu gave it 32/40.

Now who should we trust? Japanese or French?

...

Japanese.



Ken's animes are so far back in the past that nostalgia and idealized memories risk making a sequel disappointing amongst most fans. When reality isn't even worse, like Maxwell Smart, Starsky & Hutch, Scooby Doo and most other remakes that actually really sucked, they didn't just look bad due to excessive expectations. Just look how differently Nintendo handles Mario, yes, maybe sometimes they milk him a little bit too much, but they continuously refresh him, so that his appeal isn't excessively warped by nostalgia, and they can count also on a continuous stream of new fans, not only on old nostalgic ones.

In fairness, the French have never liked Fist of the North Star. it's true! Look it up.



if the proportions if the Enemy characters feet don't change from one frame to another i'd rate it bad as well!



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

- George Orwell, ‘1984’

I don't care, I will still buy the game I love the manga and anime.

In terms of tastes, the French actually come closest to the Japanese out of the western nations imo.

 

France and Japan were the only nations where GameCube took a comfortable 2nd place. <3
