Utawarerumono - Requests for new threads

Perhaps we should wait till the end of the series, and anyone who's still a villain by then could be included in the favourite villains poll, meaning Benawi and Touka would be out.

True, but they were already included in the main 'Favorite Character' poll. Essentially zero villains were included in that poll, which is why I favored a 'Favorite Villains' poll--it gives those who couldn't fit into the main poll a chance. Including characters from the main poll would negate the point.

Of course, if there were room I wouldn't mind Benawi, Touka, and Kuuya being included (all of whom become non-villains), but not all three will fit.... As it is, I wonder how many villains will receive zero votes--some of them had so little air time or impact on the audience that they barely rate. Villains can receive praise (votes) for being cool, or evil, or devious, but many of the Uta villains just seem like mediocre cannon fodder. Mid-Boss Syndrome, I guess.

We could go with something like 'Favorite Character (part two)'. Then we don't have to worry about trying to classify who is a villain. Plus, it would let us exclude less notable villains while giving secondary characters like Mukkuru, Gachatara, Sakuya, and Chikinaro a chance (Mukkuru/Gachatara would probably receive more votes than Inkara/Nuwangi).

Personally, I think the poll is worth of a thread. Let's wait until the series is over and we'll make it then. How's that?

Sounds good.

And again, my reasoning for leaving out Benawi, Touka, and Kuuya from my original suggestion stems from the fact that they become good guys. Since many ppl root for them, the vote could become an inaccurate portrayal of "proper villainy". =o

Cool. If you would, post a post in this thread as if you were starting the thread yourself. I'll move your post to a new thread and use your list of people for the poll.

Thanks.

How about some thread about the dub? It's coming out soon and ADV Universe already has the first episode dubbed for download. I already posted my thoughts on the dub in the sticky about the license.

I've split your posts off and created a new thread for the dub discussion.

The Strategy-RPG based on Utawarerumono has been translated into English. You can get the translation patch for the game here, although you will still need to get the actual game to use it (several buylinks are provided on that page.)

Perhaps a new thread should be created based on this?

Done.
