Here it is.

Movie 3
Amond, the big red Indian guy. He has that Nappa finger blow shit up technique, and spin around like a tornado technique, and his ultimate could be a beat down attack with the other henchmen. Like when they all attacked Goku...and died, except you die. This guy was like Tullece right hand man anyhow, and seemed like the strongest.

Movie 4
They could easily add Angira and Medamotcha. I don't know how I remember them, but eh. Angira does mouth blasts, generic scatter-shot ki beams, and has stretchy arms. Meta has the generic scatter-shot attack, and his "Medas" or "Motchas". Whatever...the damn little green things that come out of him and steal energy. The other henchmen ain't even worth mentioning. Piccolo and Slug kill them off quick.

Movie 5
They could add Neiz, the tall brown guy that looks like some crazy aquatic thing. He had generic ki blasts and a electric attack for an ultimate. Remember? Piccolo fries his ass with his own attack. The other guy...well again...Piccolo kills him before he does anything.

Movie 6
Add the Cooler bots, they're worth it. It'll make the story better. Ki blasts, stretchy robot arms, nets and automatic guns make them a good choice. Everybody had to fight them, so it'll make Cooler's second appearance longer. Actually, they might be able to slip Ghetti Cooler in, you know...like he was at the end. He's big, has wires everywhere, absorbs stuff...and...absorbs stuff. He'd probably be a bad choice, nevermind.

Movie 7
They can add the Androids. Not that hard. The Android #14 has generic ki ball attacks, they can give him a rush, and his ultimate could be another rush they can make up a bit. Android #15 could have that vertical ki disk thing he does, generic full power blast and his ultimate could be when he and the other android combine energy balls and blow crap everywhere like they did to that tower Goku and company were eating at.

Movie 8
Paragus. Give him a beam here, volley here, and his ultimate would be rush that would summon Broly to beat down his opponent.

Movie 9
Kogu (Gokua). He has a sword, he smashes people around like Broly, he can transform, and he shoots ki balls. His base ultimate could be a sword attack rush, his transformed ultimate could be a brutal beat down rush then finished with a big blast or slice. They could add Bujin. That guy had to be on acid. Seriously. Give him a psychic rock/pillar/whatever throw, ki beam/blast/rush and his ultimate would be a tag team attack with the Bido and Zangya. They hold the person down with the absorbing death strings and the midget beats the person to death or blows him to hell, or does something acid-like.

Movie 10
Nothing.

Movie 11
Bio Broly, he sucks, people hate him, but whatever. You know he'll be added in due time.

Movie 12
Nothing.

Movie 13
Maybe the little bastard that gets stepped on. He shot ki, and he could summon Hildergarn to do something violent, just like how Babidi summons .

You're American, you should know more than me about how cirtain parents over there get worked over the slightest thing a TV show does that illudes to sex or relegion.

In these peoples minds Bra = Breasts = Sex = "My child isn't watching this"
And likewise they think Satan = The Devil/A Relegion our family doesn't follow = "My child isn't watching this"
Well, I'm Canadian but still I know you're right about the Mr Satan thing...
However, Bra? You really think people would get that uptight about Bra? I really don't. But meh, we'll never know.

They did. I never once heard him referred to as "Spike" in FUNimation's or any other version; it was always the Devilman.

Unfortunately, my sister being a Buffy fan, i can't associate "Spike" with a character other than James Marsters' vampire.

Which, while awesome, is unlikely.

Actually, I do recall hearing him referred to as "Spike the Devil" way back when those episodes were first dubbed. I don't know if it was the TV edit, or something used by FUNi's website, but it was definitely used somewhere, and not something they made up just for this game.

Spike

Outfit 1: Standard black trenchcoat, etc.
Outfit 2: Hawaiian shirt

Blast1:
(a) "Master Vampire" - MAX power, attack/defense boosts, takes two.
(b) "It's not like you can kill me" - one health bar restored, takes two (three?) blast balls.

Blast2:
(a) "High Power Rush" - standard thing
(b) "Sword Slash" - like Dabura's, but with an 'ordinary' broadsword.

Ultimate:
"Bite" - Spike punches the opponent in the gut, turns to vampire form and feeds on them. Works like Gero's energy absoption, but with health.

I don't even know anything about said show, but that was awesome! :D

As for Bra: mild sexual references freak me out. Bra doesn't. Therefore "bulla" annoys me. I think I'll sensor it on my forum.


Lezee, I know suggestions for Kid Kuririn moves have been thrown around, but has anyone put together a complete movelist for him yet?

Generic Rush
Generic Rush #2

Kamehameha

He really doesn't make for an interesting Sparking character.

And I don't think you guys remember your classics that well. :roll:

He could do a combo then blind his opponent with his bald head, and then kamehameha. That could be his ultimate. He could throw a dirty magazine on the ground, or just say "look over there!" and then do a combo for a rush. He has the kamehameha of course. He could have a move called "Turtle Power!" that powers him up, and an after-image. It's not that hard.
