I agree, the part when its Saitama's turn to make a move was the most funniest moment ever XD. Heck Genos was impressed.

How bout a fun activity:
Dissect the video and tell me how many predictions were dead on and how many were off the mark.
*The actual judging starts at the 16-minute mark. They "judge" Danganropa at around 40:00

I'm like 8 minutes in and this is more interesting than I thought it would be. I don't totally agree with them on every point, but they do explain interesting ideas that I haven't really bothered thinking about.
EDIT:
Alright let's do this. I'll only do ones I know.
They got the general gist of Kingdom 2 (mostly from the summary though), but they were completely off for everything else. Like he even mentioned it might be targeted towards 8 year olds, which is so absurdly far from the truth.
They were pretty much spot-on with Highschool DxD, but honestly that's not that hard to figure out.
I'd say they were pretty accurate on Blood Lad.
They didn't say much about Silver Spoon that wasn't already in the summary, but most of what they said was sort of accurate.
They were surprisingly accurate with Danganronpa. Except the part where it's good and that the game might never find its way to the US.

I think they made interesting points that I hadn't really given much thought. They make sense when applied to a real-world context even though most of the points they provide sound obvious individually. I liked their usage of the word "guns" and its connotation (although occasionally I thought they used the word a little too liberally). That being said, many of their points really only applied to specific types of anime. Whenever there was an anime that didn't really fulfill any of the requirements they previously stated, they were just shooting in the dark (which I suppose is natural). Danganronpa was a good example since the screenshot and the summary didn't really relate to most of the points they were typically going off of and thus were sort of making basic assumptions based on the summary that could apply to anyone analyzing any medium or context.
Another problem with the presentation is that the examples that they used were pretty obscure occasionally, so it was difficult to pinpoint whether or not their impressions were actually correct or even close. All in all though, it was a nice and well-organized presentation, even if I didn't totally agree with them.

I'm actually pretty sure both of the first two Dangan Ronpas were released in English, in the US.
I don't doubt that AE and Despair Girls will follow suit.

Yeah that's what I meant, they said the games probably wouldn't receive localizations but they do.
AE and Despair Girls are the same thing, right? Then it was already localized.

Hey Hewitt, I started reading Jojo's Bizarre Adventure a while ago, and I'm about halfway through Part 4: Diamond is Unbreakable so far. Parts 3 and 4 are so different from each other, but somehow I like them both a lot.

If you haven't seen them I would recommend the Fate/Series. Fascinating and dynamic plot, also no fan service if you dislike it as I do.
