This MMPR Red figure was completely missing his silver paint, so I just filled it in with Sharpie. This might be opening Pandora's Box to the hobby of figure customizing ๐Ÿ˜–

Kenji Ohba was a true legend. Starting all the way as the suit actor for Akaranger, eventually becoming Battle Kenya, Denziblue, Gavan, and many other roles. A storied career from a wonderful man who can make anyone smile. He will be missed.

Today I watched the batch of Naruto episodes that was for the first of the Chunin Exams, the written exam, for the first time. I was later in the night digging through an old Shonen Jump I had in the basement Guess what chapter was in this random issue of Shonen Jump from 2004?

The end of a nearly three year long marathon of showing Joe a bunch of tokusatsu It started with Joe and I watching Gokaiger back in 2023... it ended here in 2026 with Decade And now it all comes to a close with a revisit to Super Hero Taisen

The Heisei Rider marathon is done. Minus a few movies, Joe has now seen every Heisei Kamen Rider Season from Kuuga to Decade After the Cho Den-O cleanup, the next thing we will be doing is showing me all of DragonBall, starting all the way with the original series

After over a year of marathoning the Heisei Rider Seasons, Joe and I are finally coming to the end of this marathon. Our Journey Through the Decade is nearly over.

Two weeks nc, didn't buy groceries before the snowstorm, can't go anywhere, & can't distract myself from the feelings with my day job. I'm really just straight raw dogging this depression today.

The internet has lied to you Its lied to me. Kamen Rider Hibiki's back third... isn't too bad. The ending... kinda works. I'm genuinely shocked how much I changed my tune on this.

Down to the last 100 episodes of Joe and I's Heisei Kamen Rider watch before we start DragonBall later this year. We've got Kiva, Decade... and the back half of Hibiki left to go.

Toei: Oh no yeah this is gonna be a /real/ movie, nothing like our V-cinemas, serious business, big budget, (glancing sidelong at Jo Odagiri with desperately hopeful eyes) AND it's a sequel to one of our beloved early 2000s drama-heavy revival shows

Just saw the leaked Kiwami 3 ending I'm actually beginning to DETEST the modern state of Yakuza. I might stop after I play 7. The franchise has no self-respect or dignity anymore.
