Yo-kai Watch 3 is out in Japan! Details here! youkai-watch.jp/yw3/ The Third version of YW3 will be released in the 16th of December! Contains Buster mode and all the other goodies!
>Is this actually good? Yes it's good, just don't go in expecting the hyped up "Pokemon killer" aspect. Kotaku started the phrase for clickbait and it worked. They aren't the same game at all, just two games in the monster catching genre. If you want an explanation on the battle system, someone can fill you in, don't worry the demo for the first game was indeed shit and not a good representation of how you'll go through the game. The demo for 2 was slightly better. It's heavily recommended to skip the first game and go straight for Yo-kai Watch 2.
Here's a Pastebin for all your Yo-kai Watch 2 FAQ needs: pastebin.com/JVBgWF8s (embed) We're working on an FAQ for Yo-kai Watch 2 now! This includes event passwords and QR codes, Poking tips, Door locations, and other good shit.
Contrary to what the news sounded like, Camellia is in the Crank-a-kai in WibWob!
Go try to get her and fill up on Cuttincheez and Onis!
If you have a good Score Attack team, you can get her through that as well.
Kevin Hill
I hope I can get her
Evan Phillips
She's in the 3000 yMoney crank, everyone should be able to eventually. It doesn't say she's ever leaving it.
Gabriel Baker
...
Owen Johnson
Phew, that's good to hear. I still hope it doesn't take a year to find her though.
Christian Jackson
>Take a year My pain. I STILL don't have Komashura. I've been trying to do grinding with Libertynyan instead. He's just a band-aid on a money team, but he gets me 900+ money on each Masssiface run.
The news says that she's easier to get right now, but it also said that for Kyubi SS and full crank people told us that was bullshit too.
>Scan "gray medal art" Jibanyan Yo-motion medal into Yo-kai Land >That medal has a space in the wiki, it's clearly there to be scanned >Says I have this one instead
It's neat and all, but God why can't these apps fucking work properly.
Andrew Cook

Hudson Myers
Sounds pretty beastly. I can only assume that her numbers are probably a little lower on damage if she also provides heals.
Warning for WibWob: Don't try to play the third Hidden Stage in Terror Time. It will crash the game. Had it happen to me. Apparently the Yo-kai here is meant to be Eyellure but since he's not available yet, the game just farts out.
Hino talks about Whisper's lack of medal and popularity in general. Translation comes from a fan, so I don't know how 1:1 it is.
Luis Powell
Poor whisper
Jaxon Reed
I figured that was just overhear his merch didnt sell.
Tyler Ramirez
Sad how true this is. Wal-mart even puts him in the Ghostbusters and Pokemon boxes now.
Justin Gonzalez
Beat Stage 10 with Tublappa in your party. You'll fight Badude and two Roughraffs.
For the second, beat Stage 20 with Blazion. You'll fight High Gnomey and two Gnomeys.
For the third, beat Stage 44 with Gargaros. Stage doesn't work so wait on that.
Also, that picture is too real.
Thomas Ramirez
Say what you will about the dub, Joey is the Whisper we need and deserve.
Jaxson Wilson
That voice is the best thing to come out of the dub, just because you know how much love he puts into the role.
Ryan Collins
...
Adam Garcia
I figured out what's up with the Hidden Stage, in case anyone is interested.
Eyellure (Kirameki) isn't exclusive to this Event, even though he may seem like it to us. He's actually introduced in a later Map.
We were supposed to get the other two Maps already, but we haven't because NHN is trying to spread out the internationally relevant content; they aren't planning on even giving us USApyon until December 2017 at the earliest.
In Puni Puni, this Event ran a couple months after they got the Old Springdale Map. Since his data is scheduled to be added in that update, we're out of luck until NHN decides to issue a hotfix. They have a month, so it should come... eventually.
John Morales
We'll get to Inaho's episode before next December, unless there's a massive dub drought.
Adrian Moore
Right now they have up to Episode 56 scheduled. 51 airs this Saturday Then they're skipping next Saturday in favor of a "Yo-kai Bomb" with a new episode everyday from the 26th to the 30th. After that, we don't know.
Christopher Johnson
boop
Anthony Myers
for once Casanono has someone more unpopular than him
Brayden Morales
Dromp
Daniel Long
And not even any fruit cats to make up for it. Sad!
Unless they come in the later maps, i only beat the first Terror Time Tier so far.
Oliver Green
Nope, no Fruit Cats in the later maps.
The news stated they'll be available through Christmas Coins, but so far the only way to get those is this week's Score Attack, and that means waiting until next Monday.
Dylan Cooper
And there's still no guarantee you'll get the fruit nyans you need. They probably have junk pulls too like items and orbs. Which sucks. Unless i get like a few dozen coins i just know they'll continue to elude me.
Oliver Richardson

Matthew Hall
>They probably have junk pulls too like items and orbs. And that's probably all everyone but Peegeray and FilthyGoat will get.
I don't understand why coins do this. If you could outright BUY the Fruitnyans or more Christmas coins, I'd understand it as a money racket. But it's not like you can buy yMoney to get them.
Nicholas Howard
They fixed the third Hidden Stage. Go get your Eyellure.
Jacob Harris
What did they mess up in the process?
Thomas Reyes
>Implying Goat got Komajiro S
No one knows when we'll have another chance to get him. They could've at least used Thanksgiving Coins instead of Halloween Coins in the Login Stamps...
Caleb Sullivan
>Komajiro S But I didn't mention him. I was talking about Fruitnyans and Christmas coins.
Part of me wishes the game would just go cash shop and be done with it. Let us buy Soul Secrets and get the garbage out of the crank.
Henry Anderson
That would be nice. At least give us $1 cranks.
Parker Morales

Ryan Sullivan
You can't get Loiterer/Flicker/ whoever the fuck was possessing wicked yokai right?
Asher Powell
Needs more joints in his nose.
Justin Cox
yeah those 3 aren't befriendable, not even in the third version of 2
The more commercials I see, the more and more I think you can't actually play as Fumi, just that Mifu exists now.
You'd think that being able to play as Fumi after removing her would be a selling point for some people and at least shove a new piece of art of her in a commercial.
Benjamin Murphy
Not just that but all the promo art depicts just Keita and Inaho, kind of solidifying that Fumi's just for a side quest. I didn't think they'd add her anyway, I'm glad they didn't just because there would be no male option to even it out. It looks like they're really trying to move away from her role in the series, like Inaho wasn't already a sign of that.
Elijah Torres
>kind of solidifying that Fumi's just for a side quest. Why does she have her Yo-kai Watch, then?
Blake Thomas
Up
Bentley Fisher
I imagine that any gameplay as fumi would only be done for specific sidequests
Cameron Fisher
>that blink
Chase Wood
bleep
Kevin Rodriguez
Still anchorposting for this story, and possibly the others before it. pastebin.com/r9ra4TGd

Carson Walker
Their Wib Wobs are in the files of Puni Puni. They will likely be added through an Event eventually.
Dominic Watson
For the quest
Michael Wright
bump
Dylan Robinson
That doesn't make sense. Fumi being the player character is an AU of Keita being the player character. They can't do both.
Matthew Taylor
In a self-contained sidequest it can make sense. It could be like a "what if" scenario that allows it to work since it's only being done to get Mifu.
Blake Perry
Bony Spirits or Fleshy Souls? Finished YW1 this week almost always rolling with a STR/attack team.
Adam Jones
>Next episode of the anime >Ending scene shows Fumi waving goodbye to her friends and entering her home, going to her room >She falls onto her bed and the camera pans over to her nightstand ... where we see her pink Yo-kai Watch. It sparkles, hinting there's more to come.
Would you watch a Fumi mini arc/shorts series?
Jaxson Morris
Depends on the exclusives you want. Fleshy Souls got some cooler yokai, but Bony Spirits got yokai that are decent for PvP. There's a version exclusive list somewhere
Hudson James
I think Fleshy has better exclusives design wise, Bony has the OP befriendable Slimamander though but he's more of a PvP thing than anything else.
Nicholas Miller
What are your thoughts on YW3 getting localized? Likely or not likely?
Caleb Johnson
Fleshy it is then since I dont care about PvP, thanks.
My biggest gripe with YW1 was the RNG, even while offering their favorite food sometimes it took me like an hour to get a Yo-Kai to join me. Is this somewhat better in YW2?
Christian Russell
a bit, but still terrible
Brandon Cook
still bad, but not quite as bad as 1. At the very least you can get enough medals to make a good amount of soul gems
Grayson Ross
Depends. The 3DS will be obsolete by the time they would finish it, especially if we get Busters beforehand.
If the 3DS wasn't dead and buried by then? Maybe. They'd fucking ruin it entirely though unless they retconned all of the dub anime's fuckups and said Springdale was located in Japon.
The dub anime really needs to be started over. For a dub that doesn't give 2 shits about mouth flap timing, they don't still to the original script much and the fucking maps of America everywhere are 4kids-tier.
Juan Lee
No.
Then again, i dont watch any of the new episodes since the subs stopped coming out.
>Level-5’s Akihiro Hino: With Snack World, we’re enthusiastic about creating a boom that surpasses Yo-kai Watch.
They're getting cocky.
Daniel Torres
Very much putting the carriage before the horse, I wonder if they're being totally serious or if it's just putting a marketing spin on it and being confident.
Colton Morgan
...
Blake Walker
Can't someone else pick up from where Monge dropped off? I'm sure there's at least 2 or 3 of us who could do it.
Zachary Thomas
...
Parker Phillips
you underestimate how lazy /ywg/ is
Nolan Howard
Probably, but they won't be ready to go overnight and that's what stops people once they realize work is involved.
Ryder Foster
they've been speculating that since snack world's annoucement
Eli Jenkins
Not just here. I meant the fandom as a whole.
I'm hoping that Level 5 won't burn themselves out. I think they should at least open an North American Office.
John Brooks
Has everyone got their strawberry scented princess wobbly wibbly?
Samuel Parker
>That Y-Money Woah, what's your IGN? I got mine, grinded for three hours with Beef Tongues the whole time, and got ZERO recruits.
William Ross
IGN?
I'm still trying to get Gargaros too, but thankfully Camelllia didnt take as long as the SS ranks like Whismellowman.
Jace Evans
In-game name/username, aka the thing that shows on Score Attack.
I actually managed to get Whismellowman in my Halloween Coin from the Login Stamps. No idea how that happened.
Jose Davis
Oh it's me Mostdope.
Using coins for pulls always makes me nervous since i know they like putting a lot of junk in them. Their percentage chance must be pretty small no matter what.
