*New Event MVP: Kingling! EX

Well as I promised in my earlier posts, that I would update you guys when the Event MVP: Kingling was close to being presentable.
The sprite HAS been done for awhile, it was the sound FX's and Card Image I was waiting for, before I showed you guys all of it without doing another post about him.

So without further a-do here you guys go:


*Please note: Final designs are subject to changes*
*I'm well aware of the delay in the video at some points, please don't mind it. I was in a rush to get that done since it was the only free time I had today to finish that up and I had a lot of programs running in the background. =___=

Once the MVP is patched through for the events, I'll upload some videos of his full potential. Hehe.

The Card image was selectively designed by veteran RO artist: Tharine

The card shows Kingling relaxing after have cutting so many apples just to make 1 apple juice for his followers. It's a cute concept and I liked how the merchant isn't even paying attention how the poring just swiped some apples to use, while there is another poring innocently looking around like, Whats going on here?!

Well I hope you guys enjoyed the video and some background info regarding the monsters development. Till next time!

Today I wanted to share with you a new MVP coming your way, hopefully soon that is. He's cute, round, jumpy, gold, and of course a KING....

Meet:
KINGLING


*Design may still vary and is subject to change
This new monster is even more devastated then the Event "Poring the Conquerer". Giving him the powers to spawn every type of Poring to known midgard, along with some additional MVPs/Mini Bosses in there, not to mention also having super powered buffed skills and stats. He's a king for crying out loud, and he loves ruling his peoplelings and lands. Or should I say world....New World that is. Haha.

NEW Official RO Manga!

Hey guys,

Today I want to share with you a new RO manga that's being created by Gung Ho and will be published inside a Japanese monthly manga magazine called "Dengeki-Maoh". So to answer any questions...NO THIS ISN'T ABOUT Myung-jin Lee's original manga...even though I wished it would have been it, lol, but this is a completely new story and art style created for Gung Ho and Japan readers, which actually is rolled around the same structure of RO-Animations foundation of plot and character development.
Manga will hit Japanese stores: 5.27.09

Summarized Story/Plot :
It's center around a Female High Priest and a sad excuse for a Knight...In the story we quickly find out that the High Priest isn't your typical nice Full Support. Instead shes the most meanest unsentimental jerky support you could ever party with.At the same time, the suppose "HERO"(Dish) is having a hard time being the Knight he's suppose to be...**Cough**Rune-Knight**Cough**

They'll be joined by 3 additional (party)characters:
A cutey prissy Female Merchant &
The pretty boy master mind of tactics the Male High Wizard.

*At times a Male Priest will jump into battle or events to prove the Female High Priest wrong.

Not to mention 3 troublemakers/comical reliefs characters:
Female Ninja
Female Hunter &
The (*Pimp LOL, I'm just calling him that) Male Professor/Scholar.

========================================
My Thoughts:

The manga is actually well made, not too messy, not to perfect either. But I can see why Gung-Ho wanted to make this manga. Main reasons is that the 3rd Jobs will be introduced in a few months time in Japan and round the world...so what better way to slowly introduce their story line then with a manga of a Knight who COULD become the very next Rune-Knight or Royal-Guard.

The manga defiantly was created to keep players on the edge while theres promos to BUY the manga Japanese players of jRO will get limited items after imputing their redeem codes. Not to mention since RO2 is basically Dead for now, Gung-Ho has no other Anime to work one since they had plans for doing the RO2 Anime...so with the manga they'll be slowly producing the next RO anime under this generation of hero's.

However, when you think about this manga compare to the RO-Animation....is ALMOST similar in many ways in terms of key character development, plot, and story. The main MVP will be consider in this story will be Satan Morroc & Nidhoggr being the biggest pillars to the story, along will Thantos and Naght Siege...so yes the period of time is almost current to patches, so as I said just when 3rd jobs is finally released fully...this guy will be encountering 3rd job characters.

ANYWAYS!!!
Last treat for you guys, official manga pages just for your viewing!
I hope you guys enjoy!

Wanderer & Minstrel (Clown) Sprites!

Hey guys,

Today I'm gonna share with you something new that'll be patched through kRO Sakray this week....Which I'm happy to be able to show this before it's soon uploaded.

*Designs may still vary
YUP! Minstrel & Wanderer's Sprites!
  • The Minstrel is based on the idea of a Jester/Joker of playing cards, thus the reason for the red, white, and black colored theme, not to mention the jacket too.
  • While the Wanderer was based around the idea of a wandering swan, thus the reasons for the white feathers and wings.
Well guys I hope you enjoyed these, more to come!

Also you can check out the list of other upcoming 3-2 class sprites.
