I'm bored, you're bored, let's see if this is any good:
I didn't really learn anything at all from this video. Some of the things are kinda wrong, though, or just in general, it feels like he should have done a lot more research:
Number 20 is just straight-up incorrect. I know that "reboot" was used early on, but Okubo later recounted that this wasn't the right word to use, and there haven't been any significant deviations nor does there appear to be that there will be. We're seeing things we only could read about before, and getting an earlier insight into a few characters, but nothing is actually changing, so it's not accurate to say what he said during this part.
Number 23 is also wrong, now that SoulCalibur VI is happening and we're going back and revisiting prior events. Han-myeong is mentioned in Mi-na's bio, so he's being acknowledged and it's possible we may even see him again in Mi-na's story mode.
Number 31 is pretty speculative, and is also failing to note that Nightmare in SoulCalibur V was Inferno using Raphael's body, so when defeated, and Pyrrha Omega inherited Soul Edge, Raphael would have regained consciousness, and then Z.W.E.I. would have had to have killed Raphael, and he could have, over Viola/Amy, but we never got that story, so this is impossible to know.
Number 37, Dampierre is also capable of hurting himself with some of his moves, and now Kilik's Soul Charge transformation in SoulCalibur VI does too.
Number 41 could have mentioned Cloud being in Ehrgeiz, but I can forgive him for not bringing that up.
Number 42 implies that Dante was trying to be the guest for SoulCalibur II, when he was really trying to be the guest for SoulCalibur III, which was also part of why SoulCalibur III was PS2-exclusive, because Devil May Cry was also PS2-exclusive. You know I had to point this out, given my username.
Number 47 neglects to mention that Lizardman was also a bonus moveset in SoulCalibur II, being the one appearance of Lizardman on the main cast that was not Aeon Calcos. Number 49 compounds on this by neglecting to mention the generic Lizardmen in general despite showing several Lizardmen on screen at once. I don't understand.
Number 53 leaves out Valkyrie from Valkyrie no Densetsu and Gilgamesh from The Tower of Druaga, very well could have included those too, since their parts were also available and could be considered pseudo-guests. Also a bonus in Neneko's hat from the Namco anime Yumeria, probably the most subtle inclusion out of all of the things involved.
Number 64, I'm quite sure that Tira's hair is green.
Number 67 neglects to mention that Hwang also appears in Quick Battle, and both of them also appeared in Broken Destiny's Quick Match along with Arthur and some other minor characters.
Number 68 could be avoided if you just put SoulCalibur III on your memory card first, might have been a handy tip to dole out to those who aren't aware of it. It requires two memory cards, sure, since you have to move all your stuff off your memory card, have it be totally blank, make your SoulCalibur III data, then move everything back, but the corruption occured when any data before SoulCalibur III was deleted or changed size, pretty sure it broke the header of the save file and it lost some data, because it was supposed to be 300 KB, but it would become 297 KB when it was going to be or was corrupted.
Number 84, that's Soul Calibur (Evil), not Soul Embrace. Soul Embrace was the two zweihänder variants of Soul Edge and Soul Calibur fused together by Siegfried. Soul Calibur (Evil) never really got any story relevance in SoulCalibur II, so maybe it's an honest mistake, but still.
Number 92, fine, he got back to Number 67 and brought up Hwang in SoulCalibur V, though I don't know why this wasn't combined back with that one. But again, neglects to mention that he was in Broken Destiny as well.
This went on for a pretty long while, more than I expected, but I guess I'm just too obsessive when it comes to this series.
