Hajime no Ippo: Victorious Boxers.


I stole this image from Chudahs Corner.

What I see: Well, there are boxers, but they don't look so victorious, do they? The main guy there is clearly hiding behind his fists in fear. And pretty much all of the images seem to be of either him battered and bruised, or of someone punching him in the face. Why not just call it "punching this guy and his stupid hair in the face"? I'd buy that for a dollar.

What I expect to hear: What did they play during Three Stooges movies? From the little screens, this seems to be a mix of comedy and violence, so clearly that type of thing is in order.

Would I buy it? Probably not.

D-Xhird Arrange Sound Trax


Still stealin' from Chudah's Corner.

What I see: "Hey, have you seen my new sword, it's pretty impressive."

"Wow, that is a pretty nice sword. Very nice craftsmanship, good shape, that's a fine blade, for certain."

"You know what I got it for?"

"Thousands of dollars? My discerning eye tells me this is a fine sword indeed."

"Nope, nothing!"

"Why, how did you manage that?"

"Killed a hobo."

"Nothing wrong with killing hobos"

What I expect to hear: That conversation. Or a large number of electric guitars battling to the death. Maybe some perverse combination of the two.

Would I buy it? No, because D-Xhird isn't pronounceable and that makes me angry.
