yep. if you evade the first hit of a string but swing into the next one, you'll get counter hit. near as I can tell it's always worked that way.
ergo, if you eat a counter hit because you swung too soon after an evade it's still your fault lol

not my only favorite but since I can only include one video in a post...
it's "funny" that this article is going to be used by the most annoying people in the world as proof that human translators go too far and should all be replaced by AI when the complaint is specifically about word-for-word translations that don't go far enough

The US is at war and repression at home is going to get worse.
I'm old enough to remember during the Iraq war the FBI infiltrating quaker meetings and vegan potlucks and cracking down on anti-war groups and outspoken Muslim leaders.
The US surveillance state has grown exponentially since then.

US denominational leftism is not in any position to cast aspersions on everyone else's struggles while failing to do the substantial domestic work towards defeating empire. Populations are being destroyed while many in the US reduce radicalism to clubhouse quarrels. prismreports.org/2026/03/03/u...
Macross for SNES has a reputation for being hard but it's one of the better beginner shmups imo. lots of shot types for different situations, challenge scales well and you can make enemies fight for you. also stage 5 is fuckin rad.
