I watch the anime and play the game. Sometimes read the book too.

the only reason its faster to login with a passkey is because you keep fucking stopping me from logging in to tell me it's faster with passkey

My favorite thing in a rougelite is definitely getting a random event with three bad options but the only one that doesn’t ruin my run is grayed out because I don’t have enough resources to spend.

Is Star Wars Galactic Racer a pretty good racing game? Yes. Do I think the roguelike structure of the career mode actually kind of sucks and wish that it was just a normal story mode? Also yes.

I’m watching Brigadoon via the Tokyopop DVDs and it’s extremely funny that between volumes 1 and 2 whomever was translating this decided to stop translating certain words. It has big “nakama” energy.

“Dude why are you calling it a tenement house? It’s a nagama.” Okay sure, maybe that translation isn’t 100% correct but it gets the meaning across. You can also just call it a row house dude.

They also have not provided any definitions for any of the untranslated words other than the context of the show EXCEPT for one time they have the subs say “bento (lunch box)” I need to listen to the dub and see what they decided to do with all these words.

is it good that every single games studio i still own is having all its staff leak comments like "we cant possibly make games under these conditions" in ten thousand articles

Was very pleasantly surprised at the effort that was being put into the "Draw This, Then Die!" anime with episode one and then I saw it's the studio that animates Doraemon and it's their 50th Anniversary project.

Never forget that Nozomi announced Macross Blu-rays like 4 years ago only for RightStuf to get bought Crunchyroll and then we never heard anything again. Anyway, I’m sure the funko pops will won’t end up in a landfill by next year.

My favorite part is they came up with an entire plot about a ghost meteor crashing into earth and and bringing phantom aliens that eat souls. And then the way you fight them is with a gun that shoots regular bullets.

I had never seen the movie before and I knew from watching the show that it clearly inspired a BUNCH of stuff, but wow. There is so much anime (and beyond) that is just lifting stuff straight out of that movie as well.

Like I recently watched through Revue Starlight for the first time and I didn't know the transformation sequence is that animation team literally just pulling the car transformation out of the Utena movie and doing it themselves. Like they aren't even hiding it.
