Talk:Potemkin (Guilty Gear)

69.141.126.17, please stop adding all that "how-to" stuff. Non-players wouldn't understand most of it and/or wouldn't care, and Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a FAQ page. --Yar Kramer 02:53, 10 October 2005 (UTC)

Possible Connection of Potemkin to G Gundam and GaoGaiGar

I just recently discovered this, but Potemkin has a pair of attacks, Heat Knuckle/Extend which is a lot like Erupting God Finger from G Gundam, and his Overdrive "Gigantor Bullet" is EXACTLY like GaoGaiGar's Hell & Heaven technique found in the series. Even the glowing hands and movement stance are identical!

Entirely possible, but at this stage, don't present it as more than it is: Speculation. Digital Watches 03:18, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

I know it's kind of an old subject, but Gigantor Bullet really is identical to Hell And Heaven. Opening pose, color of glowing hands, attack pose, attack mode, opening with an energy attack that paralyzes the opponent, you name it. If that's a coincidence, it's a hellishly unlikely one (about as unlikely as "Burly Heart" being so similar to "Kashimir" by accident). The G-Gundam thing is somewhat more specious, but "Heat Extend" is pretty darn close to Domon Kasshu's "Heat End" battlecry, and they both yell it out while peforming a followup attack that involves crushing an opponent in a flaming hand. Just throwing that out there. ShaleZero 18:06, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

Removing a musical Reference

68.100.222.184, If you think that "Burly Heart" bears any resemblance to "Spiel Mit Mier", you're crazy. If anything, it's based on a combination of Led Zeppelin's "Kashmir" and Pantera's "A New Level".--68.100.222.184 00:23, 18 June 2006 (UTC)

Connection to Kinnikuman.

Yet another reference and nod to Anime, Potemkin has a move and quote "Hontou wa hatchi no hissatsu waza! [Submission Technique #48!]" this is a nod to Kinnikuman's infamous Kinnikuman Buster. Just thought I'd add it. Mimeblade 17:44, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
