Anime Toys 2020
I somehow managed to waste money on yet more figures despite this whole situation.

Re: What are you watching/reading Q3 2020?
I don't think I'm watching much new stuff for Q3, mostly resuming what had been halted due to the state of the world. I thought Deca-Dence was just going to be another Attack on Titan type premise, but the second episode kinda makes life a lot more interesting so I'm sticking with it. Production val...

Re: What are you watching/reading Q2 2020?
I'm watching Bubblegum Crisis 2040 for some inexplicable reason. Sylia smashing whisky glasses with her bare hands is vaguely amusing. I also find it amusing the enemies are called boomers. But I find the experience not too interesting overall and the action sequences don't really hold up. But I'm a...

Re: New Idolmaster Anime
I'll probably end up checking it out but I never really found it in me to bother keeping up with Million Live. My brain's already full from 765 and Cinderella Girls, and nowadays I got Hololive entering that same brain space. I have nothing against 3DCG if they manage to do it well, but problem is t...

Re: What are you watching/reading Q2 2020?
I went through the three Project Itoh films. Genocidal Organ, Harmony and The Empire of Corpses. I'm not sure if I particularly enjoyed Genocidal Organ. There were some neat ideas in and about it I suppose. Harmony I'm also a bit eh on, though I quite liked the setting. I think I enjoyed The Empire ...

Re: What are you watching/reading Q1 2020?
Lockdown led me to binge some random stuff of previous seasons and watch movies I forgot about. ID Invaded - Interesting while it lasted I suppose but I don't think it'll leave much of a mark on my memory. Pet - Found this rather entertaining, even the amount of awfully spoken Mandarin was somewhat ...

Re: vtubers
I only had some casual exposure so here's my thoughts and experiences. The only one I really watch is Kizuna Ai, and it's kinda an on and off affair rather than following her religiously. I like her cause she's a complete spaztic and fairly unrestrained in her reactions to games. I did watch a bit o...

Re: What are you watching/reading Q1 2020?
Ishuzoku Reviewers - It is so unabashedly shameless that it ends up being rather fun. Definitely not everybody's cup of tea granted. Dorohedoro - I'm quite enjoying this. Kyokou Suiri - Feels like the latest attempt at a -monogatari type show. Probably would've enjoyed it a lot more 5 years ago. Too...

Re: What Are You Watching!/Reading! Q4 '19
I never delved too deeply into the Food Wars anime, but the manga was more or less downhill after a while. And it didn't even bother to completely shit the bed like Yakitate Japan did, which would've at least been entertaining. Kinda just went out with a half arsed whimper. Kabukicho Sherlock is pre...

Re: What Are You Watching!/Reading! Q4 '19
Gave Babylon a shot. I thought it was pretty interesting. Though being the mystery/thriller type of show, how I feel about the whole thing is really going to hinge on how it all concludes. I'm not too sure what to think of Houkago Saikoro Club. Might be a fun way to find out about obscure board game...

Re: What are you Watching/Reading Q3 2019
Kanata no Astra was a fun little ride. It was also oddly more complicated than what I was expecting. But it ties up neatly at the end, and that's more than I can say for a lot of anime nowadays.

Re: What are you Watching/Reading Q3 2019
I recently finished Yamato 2202. After of course my second go at 2199 and also checked out the movie. Which I thought would bridge the two seasons together, but was really just an additional story taking place close to the end of 2199. Though it did introduce the Gatlanteans(though albeit inaccurate...

Planescape Torment: Enhanced Edition
So I started playing this. It's my second attempt I suppose, but I never finished it that one time I tried quite some years ago. I don't really remember shit, and I kinda got lost, stuck and sidetracked and never finished it. After searching for some internet advice, my starting build had 18 WIS, 16...

Re: Idolmaster
I think there's a major issue with Cinderella Girls crossing over with the rest of im@s. But this is just my speculation and analysis. The thing about Cinderella Girls is that it is co-developed by Bandai Namco AND Cygames. And I hear Cygames does most of the heavy lifting really and Bamco is mostly...

Re: What are you Watching/Reading Q3 2019
Rewatched Soukyuu no Fafner. I was hankering for some mecha and absolutely did not remember what it was about, so I revisited it so I could watch the Heaven and Earth Movie and Exodus as well. Now that I'm done with it all, I feel horrible just from how much of a trauma conga line the entire show is...

Re: What are you Watching/Reading Q3 2019
Fire Force is looking quite nice. Lord El-Melloi will either be good or really pretentiously cringey. I think I will enjoy Cop Craft. Sounan desu ka is kinda amusing but the character designs are so reminiscent of some hentai I've watched before... Symphogear XV is the only reason I haven't flung my...

Re: What are you Watching/Reading Q2 2019
Spy X Family is probably like my favourite manga now. And you can read it for free, legally on Shueisha's Manga Plus website. I dropped Fairy Gone at some point, decided to binge the rest of it and my life was not at all enriched by the experience. I also dropped Bocchi at some point. Maybe I'll wat...

Ebay can be unreliable and home to scams and bootlegs so I wouldn't advise it. https://www.mandarake.co.jp/ This is my go to for second hand figures.

Re: Anime Toys 2019
Prize figures tend to be el cheapo, but their price is proportional to their quality. They typically don't compare to proper stuff and might as well be molten wax in the face of high end brands like Alter. There is a nice variety though, I actually like the concept of a number of them, like the Taka...

Re: Thoughts of 2018?
I find it so hard to think of a year as a year. Since I mostly think of seasons and barely remember seasons beyond the previous one. I thought S;G0 was utter arse though and wish I never gave it the time of day. Yuru Camp was definitely the bee's knees. Didn't actually like DarliFranxx that much but...

Re: Whatcha watchin' / readin' Q1 2019
While I enjoyed NANA, it is quite unfortunate that Yazawa Ai never quite got back to resuming her career after that illness.
