Dissidia 012 Duodecim Final Fantasy

Not while ago I played this game when I bought my PSP & it is one of my favorite PSP game of all time now I heard that there is a new chapter for the game I was surprised at first due we need more lead role Final Fantasy characters but they kinda covered it with their popular one this time that game is back with it own fantastic addition which is to me became better than the first game so let me introduce you Dissidia 012 Duodecim Final Fantasy.


The divine conflict between harmony and discord rages on, the fate of the world its promised prize. Fighting to secure it are brave souls summoned for that solitary purpose. These warriors, relying on what fragments of their shattered memories remain, fight to end the conflict and for a chance to return home, to the worlds they each once knew.


Now let’s kick off with the gameplay Dissidia 012 is pretty much the same with the previous one but this time they added a few great features such as Assist, Assist Finisher, EX Revenge and such you can also have your own 5 man party members to play do not worry there is still single playing but let’s face it creating your own party members from all of your favorite Final Fantasy Characters it sounded pretty much awesome.

After the gameplay let’s move on to the effects first of the virtual got some really great improvement so I can match with the character design & some of their cool new outfits and let’s not forget the beautiful magical effects that comes with the series going on the sound SFX, BGM, Voice actors love them all but one small thing I do agree with a lot of people that they should’ve worked on the actual acting well as I heard from the English voices at least.



There are so many great characters to play in Dissidia 012 all of them are great but here is my most playable characters by a group of five that’s right you can say people this is my party


5th: Squall he had really incredible with small areas and has inescapable combos I really can count on him in most of my battles as expected from the ace military student of Final Fantasy VIII


4th: Yuna she’s new here & I thought I won’t use her much like I did with Terra because Yuna as all of you know is a summoner so most of it magic attacks well she really surprised me when she made a close & long ranged combat not fast as I expected but man she is really useful for my party as “Do not judge a book from it cover”


3rd: Cloud I don’t know why but there is something about Cloud always dras me to him oh maybe he has these powerful chase combos and an incredible strength and his chain BRV attacks with HP attacks wow you can call this a finisher.


2nd: Lightning as expected Lightning will be my first choice as many of some game players first you kick off with wonderful combos as Commando then turn into a Ravenger to give an amazing magic finisher then you can recover your BRV on Medic Paradigm Shift in this game is really tricky but not till you get used to it


1st: Zidane is always my first choice for winning every battle he is truly my trump card his land & aerial combos is addictive and once you put the right moves you already know how to play it & I’m telling you this & that my only opinion [not sure about yours] Zidane is my best & favorite characters in the Dissidia series I like this thief since I played him in Final Fantasy IX.



The Music is still the same as the first game but it got few new remixed tracks that will become really addictive to listen to it over & over again it's been very well made to fit when you are on battle to spice things up more than usual.


They say they aren’t so many PSP games but when the first Dissidia was released there was hope after the second was released you can say this is it sure I do agree that they should’ve waited for the other Final Fantasy series characters such as Noctis from the new Final Fantasy XIII Verses [which is finally in development] and few great characters from XIII, VIII, IX, IV & V but I’m sure the next game will give us more satisfaction than ever I was hoping for a better & longer story but hey at least they got some awesome notes form the fans of the series IGN.com gave it a 9.0 but I give it 9.5.

Kimi ni Todoke 2nd Season

One year later I told you about a great anime that I really enjoyed as so many of you especially who read the first post & thank you for your commentary now I believe that I have a good news that might be old for some our favorite sweet girl Kuronuma Sawako is back with another opportunity to express her feelings towards Kazehaya Shouta in Kimi ni Todoke 2nd Season.


The continuation of the first season. Sawako Kuronuma and her friends have just begun their second year of high school and they are in the same class together again. To make matters more interesting a male student newly transferred into their class is seated right next to Kuronuma and has taken an interest in her. What hurdles will Sawako and Kazehaya face next?


There are a few new characters in the season but… My ranking still the same but with a new approach so here it is:


5th: Ryuu Sanada Best friend of Kazehaya he’s still the same but more open but his look cool nature is still alive & kicking.


4th: Shouta Kazehaya the most popular boy in the class this time around he is more Sawako like yeah apparently they decided to focus the drama around him more than Sawako but do not worry Sawako still amaze us with her far reach conclusions


3rd: Chizuru Yoshida the nut job & still the nut job and the best friend of Sawako & Ayane and she is full of surprises in this season I don’t wanna ruin it you will just have to watch to know what I mean.


2nd: Ayane Yano the scary person and the other best friend of Sawako and Chizuru she is still the love medium for Kazehaya & Sawako still trying hard to hook these idiots up & yep she grew more & more eviler than before which is pretty much enough for me.


1st: Sawako Kuronuma the heroine of the story or let’s say the gloomy one still gloomy but with a lot of friends her classmates started to be more involved with her but for reason she became distant with Kazehaya due of her feelings can’t blame the girl she still sees him in a different way which is new main story is all about.


Now for music well the melodies are from the first season but I have 2 more great songs such as starting with OP Sawakaze by Tomofumi Tanizawa & it ED Kimi ni Todoke... by MAY'S.


My final commentary for this continuation like I said before I was hoping for longer episodes but I believe the wrapping for this anime was pretty much good maybe I’m still addict for the series but can’t blame a guy for trying I really enjoyed it & it got 9.2/10.
