Bayonetta is serious fucking business.

Every once in a blue moon a Japanese game comes out that the Weeaboo's get a raging boner for and are willing defend. The latest of which is Platinum Games Bayonetta. So, for shits and giggles I'm going to offer some commentary on some of the myths about Bayonetta.

1. "Bayonetta is so over the top and doesn't take itself seriously."

Me: Oh, how I wished that was true. Sure Bayonetta is over the top and what have you, but I have to say, it tries way to fucking hard at it to be over the top. God Hand did over the top perfect honestly.

2. "Bayonetta isn't a button masher."

Me: Of course it is and to say other wise is laughable. I've been playing the game and all I do is mash the attack buttons and dodge every so often. It's just like every other button masher, sorry.

3. "Bayonetta is a parody of the action game genre."

Me: *Falls on the ground laughing* Really? Really?! Bayonetta is most certainly not a parody of the action game genre at all. Where's the breaking the 4th style jokes and humor? The only thing I see is a Devil May Cry clone except the main character is a woman, and fights angels instead of demons.

4. "Bayonetta is a strong female character."

Me: *Falls over laughing in tears* The thing that's so sad about this, is people actually believe it. Lenneth from Valkyrie Profile was a strong female character. Bayonette is a cum dumpster marketed to 13 year old boys.

5. "Bayonette is unarguably one of the best games this generation."

Me: I love even people state opinions as cold hard facts. Bayonetta is rather average honestly. It's rental material in all honesty.

There's plenty of BS going around about Bayonetta---

Bayonetta Fan: How dare you!

Me: Huh?

BF: Don't "huh" me. Bayonetta is a great game.

Me: Well, I'm glad you like it, but I didn't think it was that great.

BF: You didn't get it then. The game is revolutionary, and has redefined the action game genre.

Me: How? It's a rather bland action game.

BF: It takes skill and timing. Bayonetta also proved that you can have a sexy female character and not be viewed as a sex object.

Me: What the hell are you talking about. Bayonetta takes little skill. Bayonetta is not anything new as far as female lead characters go. Seriously, how am I suppose to think anything other than how whoreish Bayonetta is? There's a difference between being sexy and playful and being cheap masturbation material for weeaboo's and 13 year old boys.

BF: WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU TAKING THIS SO SERIOUSLY???!11111!!1111 YOU JUST DON'T GET THE SHEER GENIUS THAT IS BAYONETTA!!!1111

Me: Whoa! Chill out with the weeaboo rage there bud.

BF: *deep breathing*

Me: What the hell are you doing?! Well, they DID say you could have the game set up for one handed play.
