Description
Ice, ice, Kirin.Black Kirin are extremely cool (No pun intended), their black colour scheme is beautiful and even in 2G, i always prefered the black version of the Kirin armour. They're much more formidable looking when enraged with the more solid looking Icey mist aura too compared to a normal Kirin.
That said, he does seem a little forced. It would've been nice to have been able to fight them in the ice sea or a specialised ice themed arena and he doesn't give many unique items, just an ice horn and tail.

Kirin from Monster Hunter belongs to Capcom
More MonHun art by me?

Man, I remember all the times fighting Kirin in the older MH games, he was such a troll! XD I'd be half-way through healing then OUT OF NOWHERE he'd just barge into me XD
This guy looks really cool though! Wish there were more MH games in the UK so I could get armour from monsters like this, it looks so badass

I'm in the UK, but i imported XD At least I believe we get a legit English release of 4G next year at some point though

Oh nice! Cannot wait for more MH games!

Wow.... ;_; now I wanta fight one... I really hope that it comes to the US. That way I can kill it!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
XD I think they're actually easier than a normal Kirin, but they do have this one super powerful Ice attack which at high levels (Gold stars at least) it can do twice in succession and can very nearly insta-kill (Probably will Insta kill at lv100 ><)
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Wow... Still I want to fight it! Along with the other monsters of MH 4. Honestly after soloing hunting 54 Dire Miralis I think I can say with pride that I have mastered Tri ultimate.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Only 54 eh?
If Tri/p3rd/3G is the only MonHun you've mastered, i think you're going to have some trouble in 4. Offline is easy as usual, but the jump from Low to High rank and for each HR in High rank was very steep and don't get me started on Lv100 monsters DX

Ah I remember the good old days of Mh 2, Mh freedom, and Mh freedom untie. I can't tell you how many fatalis, Lao, Testora, Luna, and other elder dragons I killed alone. See the thing is no one is around >.< so I have to hunt alone, but hey you pick up some pretty good skills like that.
Honestly the only one that gives me problems now is Ala... his muti-element attacks >.< If he doesn't get you one way he does with another. I love the fact that they added those turrets in the sacred grounds in Tri ultimate. Makes it so much easier to drag him out of the air.
So bring on you Hr 100 monsters. It may take me a bit to learn their moves, but eventually I will be putting them in early graves too.

Yeah >< Since the PSP couldn't go online, the only time i could play it with anyone was once a year for 3 weeks with my uncle and cousins when we all get together in Hong Kong.
3G was no problem for me XD the only attack Alba gets me with is the Dragon Claw and i bring Flash bombs (Or just slash at his feet) when he flies XD
Heh, i wouldn't underestimate Lv100 monsters XD they won't be giving you time to learn the moves XD One mistake and you're dead... Well ok, thats 2 chances to learn...
Seriously, the slightist mistake on a forest quest for the more difficult monsters thats been leveled to the 90-100 mark, you're either seriously hurt or dead. Shagaru can bound towards me, accidentally bump me and i'll have lost a third of my health DX Any breath attack is insta kill, most melee attacks are insta kill, the rest are over half health gone, then theres constant random bursts all over the arena... Also half health each. DX I really dread fighting a lv100 Shagaru, but it is fun
Btw, i'm slowly levelling a Velocidrome to lv100 just for lols XD Its only at lv82 so far, but i'll get there at some point
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
What do you mean your leveling a Velocidrome up? Are you saying that in 4 after you capture a monster or something you can train it? Because if that's right that's just plain epic!
As for the flash bombs... yeah I really should take them along I just never do, and you learn more from failure then you do victory right? Lol then again my brother at first could never beat a Congolala back in MH freedom. I had to kick that monkey's but for him lol.... too bad he never really took to monster hunter, but hey to each is their own right?
One thing I have learned though throughout my entire monster hunter carrier is to never EVER underestimate a monster, and to always be on guard.

Lmao XD That would be awesome but unfortunately, no. When you obtain a quest from doing well in the free roam forests, these quests can be added to your list of "Guild Quests" of which you can have 10 (And I hope it's upped in 4G to a lot more XD). These quests, start at low levels of 1-14 for Low rank or 40-60 at High rank. Once on your list, you can do the quest again and when you complete it, you level it up

Ahhh makes perfect sense then. Well here's hoping that they either a release 4 into the USA or 4G when they make it.
HHhmmm but you know... Now I'm thinking about something.....
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well 4G in the west has been confirmed, i've provided links in this journel, but they're skipping 4 as a result.
Thinking eh? What might you be thinking?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well I just thought to myself. What does happen to the monsters you capture? I mean we both know what happens to some of them. * Waves his arms a bit.* But to keep on topic I'm thinking a monster 'zoo'
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I thought they just go to the Arena, but i do have a theory that maybe they might just relocate some (Like Joe) to better control their population and such for hunters and lessen people asking the guild for hunters to kill them XD
Monster zoo would be the best thing though, I'd love there to be a Monster Zoo in the game XD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Same here and now I'm going to start working on a MH fan fic. The Monster Zoo... Hhmmm now where to start... Got to get a better name then that.

Not sure if Kirin's a dragon or a horse. I mean how do they even reproduce? :I
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well, they are scaled rather than skin, but are very horse shaped... so i'm not sure XD Are they Dragon and therefore, lay eggs? Or are they horses that give birth to live young? Maybe they don't reproduce at all and are born of Lightning bolts (Or icebergs for the Ice varient... The deepest, darkest core of a giant iceberg that threatens the entire MonHun universe itself 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah.. Maybe the Kirin IS made of lightning bolts an icebergs, because how else can we explain that glowing "shadow" of theirs? :I
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Heh XD I sorta wanted to say that all Elder Dragons were still normal creatures (With earth destroying powers) that would reproduce normally, Teo and Nana probably would in theory. But then... Yamatsukami. :I
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh god please don't get started on Yama. :I

this definitely could be an alternative...unless this actually exists ._.

...This does exist... it is in MH4. XD

oh god i'm so out of the loop lol

I hope that game gets an english port I want to play it so bad
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Me too XD Theres so much new stuff it'd be a shame for you guys to miss out on it>< Expecially considering importation would be so expensive as it involves buying (In some cases) a second 3DS (Actually, i now have 3 because i got the Zelda edition 3DSXL
But i can't' imagine they wont, Tri has proven successful and so has it true expansion 3G... But then again, this is Capcom we're talking about ><

capcom doesn't make good decisions from what I have experienced with them -_-
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Doesn't made good decisions is being very nice about their history >_>
VERY nice...

there are better words but I want to keep it safe for work

Capcom isn't exactly the most Safe For Work company, but I can see what you mean.

they are also very biased when it comes to releasing games

Biased... there you go with those kind terms again.
