I can't blame you for not knowing I could clone myself. It's a well guarded secret. I wish my aunt and uncle would stop exposing it though.

No, there's no (official) Guilty Gear XXX.
*
Though not as well-known as other fighting game titles (like Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat) this game still stood out due its unique mechanics, outlandish character designs and amazing soundtrack.
I know the first thing you noticed about the gif I used. Well guess what. She's a girl, her name's Justice and she's a Boss in the game as well as a secret unlockable character. And yes, she's quite OP.
My favorite fighter though is a vampire named Slayer. Other characters I liked to use were Anji (a fan-wielding gentleman), Zato-1 aka Eddie (a demon-possessed corpse), May (pictured) and Potemkin (not the ship, but almost just as massive).
I remember also playing Survival Mode a lot in this game. I think I made it to a Golden Dare Devil (which if I recall only shows up after 500 wins).
I wonder what their crossover with the DCU would look like. Probably best it didn't happen though...

This should be a Pokémon. It could be called Carktos, cactus + arktos (bear in Greek). Or maybe Pricklear (prickly + bear).

His beats are sick
Name's @funkmasterrex
His rhymes are slick,
And he's never had anyone tell him otherwise.

That theme is still a bop. I remember how hyped I was when the movie came out. Up until then I'd played MK I and II and I couldn't believe they'd actually make a movie out of it. Back then, video game movies were still a novel concept. I remember there was also a TV series about Kung Lao at some point, with Shang Tsung as the main antagonist.
As for the games, I mostly played MK II. Liu Kang was my favorite (yeah, kinda clichéd to have the main character as your fave, I know). Scorpion was a close second. When he tells to GET OVER HERE, you just can't refuse, you know? I also liked playing with Mileena, Reptile, Jax and Subzero.
I think I only managed to pull off a Fatality once by accident. It was Kung Lao's decapitating hat throw.
FINISH HIM!

So, satire is "pushing an agenda" now? Well, Twitter is more 'twit' than 'wit' one might say. Are T**** supporters just triggered by his depiction in the show or something?

So they are. Didn't they have a crossover movie with Batman, too? They really get around, don't they?

Or, Las Tortuga Adolecentes Mutantes Ninja. I have no idea why I remember the Spanish name. Especially since the first I saw of this show was the Italian dub (surprise!) on Rai Uno.
It's strange that although it contains so many elements that should make it memorable, I don't really recall much of any of the episodes. I remember there was a heatwave episode where April had to report in a swimsuit (can't possibly imagine why that stuck with me).
But the characters I can't forget. The turtles each had their own distinct personalities. I remember liking Donatello and Leonardo the most. April was cute. And the Shredder was surprisingly menacing. That brain thing he was always with freaked me out.
I also saw some episodes of the darker and edgier 2000's series. The turtles were a lot slicker there, and the stories had more tension. Also, Casey Jones aka good Jason Voorhees.
So yeah, in conclusion, I like turtles.

Yeah, my introduction to Disney's Aladdin was the MS-DOS/Sega Genesis game. And it was a pretty good one, I'd say. Years later I also played the SNES game. And while both were good, I prefer the former because it gave you a sword.
I remember the game being very easy, with two very painful exceptions. The first was the infamous flying carpet level. And the second was the final boss, Jafar. I couldn't beat as a kid though I finally managed to years later.
As for the movie the game was based on, it's a classic, no question. Everyone remembers the Genie, and he really was the best part. Aside from that, Jafar and Iago were really entertaining and the songs were great, too.
While the live action doesn't hold a candle, Will Smith was pretty fun as the Genie, but naturally he's no Robin Williams...

I was gonna save @typow777 for the 777th entry, but I doubt I'll make that many. So they'll just have to settle for number 77.

In the name of the Moon, I will reminisce about this series!
*
Yet another anime introduced to be via the German dub (last one, I promise). And man, given the notoriously bad English dub, I could not be more grateful.
I remember my favorite Scout was Sailor Jupiter (though thunder is NOT lightning). She was tall, though, very pretty (ponytails are my weakness as it turns out) and constantly trained to better her fighting abilities. Despite that, she was also very feminine. Apparently her dream was just to settle down and raise a family.
As time went on, I also grew to like Sailor Mercury more and more. She was the brains of the outfit, but also very kind and sweet.
I used to think that Sailor Uranus (yes, ha ha, funny) was a boy who liked to crossdress. I remember thinking it was a bit odd but I went along with it. Sailor Uranus and Sailor Mercury's theme is still one of my favorites. And they're still one of the most popular anime couples ever...

Very much so. But I'd like to believe the "I'll be there for you" part is also true, at least as far as people on this site are concerned.
