Leap before you think of this

Sooooo English trailer of Okamiden. It's coming out next year to the West, giving me time to decide whether I cave in and buy this cute abomination or not.

It's still confusing about Chibi's origin: trailer says Amaterasu's power is "reborn anew", but meanwhile there's a screencap where Issun says something about the bad habits of someone's mother. True, he could be talking about Kushi, who's Kuni's mom and pretty reckless on her own, but Issun was never rude to her so it makes more sense if it's about Ammy. So, then, is Chibi her child, or does Issun seem to think so?

Either way, don't try to think about it don't try to think about it don't try to think about it don't try to think about how she reprodu-- oh, fuck D:

Please, if you're going that route, make it asexual. I don't want to be thinking 'so, who's the father?' or 'was she a wolf at the time or...?' in my fluffy fandom, no matter if this is pseudo-mythology and furry shouldn't be a problem for... oh gods why ughsjfhjskh. And I say this shipping her with a humanoid dude -platonic, I mean.

Still, why would you send your months-old cub to fight evil instead of doing the job yourself or help him/her out? That doesn't sound very Amaterasu to me. At least Susano is worried about his son.

Stupid game. Incidentally, Eshiro said it's "spiritual successor" and not sequel per se. What are you talking about, it's the same world (kinda) and it has returning characters. At least call it an AU if you want to avoid that word and show your respect to the original creators or some shit.

The game play looks quite Zelda-ish (ahem, more Zelda-ish than it already was), but the hack pauses in BGM when you open/close the canvas are distracting. /nitpick
