Todays rip: 20/11/2023

88811

Season 4 Episode 2 Featured on: DJ Professor K Presents: 24​/​7 FUNKY FRESH BEATS FROM TOKYO​-​TO

Ripped by Anonite

Only a month ago with Give Me the Fantasy, I made public my affection and overall adoration for chiptune rock band Anamanaguchi (who just recently scored the recent Netflix series Scott Pilgrim Takes Off!). Little did I know, that I'd been adoring them for longer than I'd known - this gem of a rip, with as strangely cryptic of a track name as 88811, turned out to have been yet another piece of Anamanaguchi music, one that had been sitting in my playlists since its initial album release.

I think its really fascinating how many rippers end up committing themselves to small passion projects on the channel, sometimes entirely on their own - think of something like Collision Chaos Good Future JP [CD Beta Mix] and the other Beta Mix arrangements done by ripper Jass, as an example. 88811 and its ripper Anonite fall into a similar category - rather than arranging Sonic CD music to sound akin to Genesis Sonic music, however, Anonite's love is wholly directed toward one of the console's most beloved hardcore titles. Thunder Force IV.

Listen, I'm going to keep it plain and simple - if you've never heard the music of Thunder Force IV, you've never lived. What Technosoft were able to accomplish with SEGA's 16-bit machine is nothing short of miraculous, a type of sound that can ONLY exist on the Genesis, yet simultaneously excels far beyond the limits of what one thinks would be possible on it. ANY track arranged into the instrumentation of Thunder Force IV is bound to sound excellent, yet Leave the Past Behind simultaneously feels like such a perfect pick - Anamanaguchi's blend of chiptune and distorted guitars is a match made in heaven for Thunder Force IV's shredding synths. The rip is a marriage, a full on celebration, of two of the most unsung legends in the scene of VGM, from two games whose entire legacy effectively rests on their breathtaking scores. One, a shoot-em-up from a long-gone franchise, on a console only remembered by the mainstream for its edgy platformers - the other, a game that was long left delisted, only truly remembered for its unavailability rather than for the terrific soundtrack it bolstered.

All of that celebration, that love, and of course the utmost perfect quality in its arranging, yet...it still sits below 15K views. Anonite has since left the internet altogether, and this rip amidst all of his other Thunder Force IV contributions have become lost to the sands of time. Yet that's part of what drives me to keep this blog going - to keep shining a much-needed spotlight onto the rips that truly deserve it. Thank you, Technosoft, Toshiharu Yamanishi, Takeshi Yoshida, Naosuke Arai, and Anamanaguchi. And thank you, Anonite.

Finally showing off this commission by the absolutely lovely @kovpai! Their version of Jack was one of the first I fell in lustlove with and I was so excited to get a visual of this Super Niche ship from them lmao. In a nutshell, these two are the focus of an AU that @alivingsaint​ and I have wherein a cursed Calico Jack (OFMD) survives the cannonball as a seagull-flavored siren and washes up on shore where Jerry the Crab (Thunder Force) discovers him. Jack mooches off of Jerry’s survival skills, Jerry gets snippy about it, and eventually they fuck nasty about it, which finally turns the tides into Jack helping out and them building a secluded home together.

I thought this little scene of Jack FINALLY catching a couple of small fish for their dinner and being smug about it would be fun lmao. Here’s another look at what Jack’s curse looks like, a drabble* of smut I wrote, and another AU summary + visual of Jerry if anyone is curious!

*i know this is technically not a drabble, fandom gods forgive me, but it’s so short i don’t feel right even calling it a ficlet lmao

In the movie Thunder Force (2021) there is a character named Laser who has exactly the same power as Brennan from Mutant X. And she moves her hands in the same way to generate the power. And as we all know, electricity is always blue.

Direct inspiration? Or both inspired by Marvel? I’m afraid I am not a big enough fan of mainstream superhero stuff to know. I loved Thunder Force and was very surprised to see its poor ratings. Eh, I know what I like.

Refined Vasteel Replica - 02

"Vambrace"

"RVR-02 Vambrace was built shortly after the mass production of RVR-01 had begun. While it possessed firepowers and performance greater than the estimated spec of Vasteel Original, its absurdly high cost kept it from being produced more than one craft.

In the Vasteel War, Captain Cenes Crawford piloted the only one ship that had been built to chase down the Guardian system fleeing outside of Earth with its Sword Fleet.

However, shortly after the battle has ended with Guardian parasitized by [REDACTED] being destroyed in the hand of the Thunder Force 222 Unit, Crawford has suddenly used a self destruct protocol on her own craft, Exploding it with no ramnants left to be salvaged."

In case anyone is scratching their heads about the last post, @andithil​ and I have an au featuring these two bums:

with the premise being that Jack was cursed to live as a gull man after the Karl incident. He washes ashore, runs into Jerry, and it all devolves from there into a cycle of kinky hatesex bc we are nonstop fucking ready to pair them together in any combination our brains can conjure.

It’s the 30th anniversary of Thunder Force IV! (...aka Lightening Force)

On my site I made a page recreating the background of the first stage in CSS. Because it’s honestly maybe the most gorgeous example of parallax scrolling of the generation. I got 40 image layers stacked here...

(...Unfortunately, it’s a flickery awful mess on mobile! Too many layers I guess. Or my browser apps are too outdated. I dunno what do about it, I’m no web design wizard.)

But look at it here! (There’s also a link to the older Javascript version, which scrolls a little chunkier, but has more game-accurate speed timing.)
