Yea and after Oakland, it's nothing but the Rangers and Astro's. So uhh going to be interesting. Best case win the division and take the number 2 seed or take the 6th seed and play Minnesota.
-
The M's are back in the win column after a couple games against Oakland. Seattle and Texas are tied for the third WC spot, only a game behind Toronto Gonna be a close finish! Baltimore has been beating up on the Astros the last couple days too, so the ALW division race is getting super tight again.

You guys check out the new series this week? (Kagurabachi) I thought the first chapter was pretty rad.
- Last week
-
Yeah, Alternative and Progressive were a mixed bag. I could find parts to like about both, but neither stands up to the original which is very special to me. On the other hand, they could make almost anything--dumb story, shitty animation, whatever--but put those classic songs by The Pillows in the soundtrack and I'll watch it and talk myself into liking something about it. The nostalgia overpowers me. I listen to the OG FLCL soundtrack a ton. Fucking love those tunes.

Kencho is the best Bea is a great addition to this cast of characters but Shizuka is still best girl. Gotta love that strong desire from Bea and Akira to pig out on sushi though Rather random that this sushi place is still in tact, but whatevs. Like, no shit of course they can drink all the sake in the house, the place is surrounded by the living dead and you're probably never going to see paying customers again anyways Party like it's the end of the world! The dynamic for this story seems to be heavy / light-hearted / heavy / light-hearted / etc., so after this episode... I feel like it's gotta get dark again soon. Are they gonna show up in Gunma to find Akira's parents already turned into zombies?
-
Yup Bungo ends this week. Andost everything else that isn't carrying over into Fall Season is wrapping up with at least 2 more eps between this week and next week. I feel a liiiiiittle called out with ep 8 of Zom:100

That's how i kinda feel about U/U. The concept of the story -sounds- like it might be good. But watching the trailers gives me meh feelings. Like yea you have initial wth factor but i feel like it'd be short lived. I just rewatched FLCL: Alternative and Progressive. A lot of it will always confuse tf outta me from the symbolism but the jist i've always gotten is Haruko always used the feelings of blooming adolescence to more or less track down her unrequited love from the first FLCL. Progressive probs could have not been made honestly and i'm not looking forward to there being 3D for Grunge (which takes place after Alternative) but maybe it won't be shit quality.

Excited for Spy x Family and Dr. Stone of course Definitely recommend checking out Undead Unluck. I'm curious how it turns out in the anime. It grabbed me early in the manga, then kind of lost me and thought they might have been getting cancelled, and then it swerved into being one of my low-key favorites to follow each week.
-
Only one week left of MIX And Horimiya This week's episode of Horimiya was great. Loved the flashback to Hori's parents in high school. I think Stray Dogs wraps up this week too (only 11 episodes). Very curious how it all comes together. JJK was effin' rad this week. Can't wait to keep seeing the Shibuya Incident played out in anime.

I haven't looked too closely at the fall season yet. I'm going to try to watch less this season. I will for sure continue with Spy x Family and Dr. Stone. I will also give Undead Unluck a look, and if I like the first couple episodes then I will binge read the manga (and stick with the anime too of course ). I don't know if I want more Shield Hero. Maaaaaybe if it's confirmed to be only one cours. I'm not signing up for more than 12 or 13 episodes of that. I will eventually watch the new FLCL when it hits the Crunchyroll app... setting the expectations very low because it might be bad. At least we will always have the original to re-watch

It's really hard to say with this Jays team. Offensively, on paper, they ought to be so much better... but these guys seem to have no power. They take walks, they get lots of hits (singles), but struggle with the "big" hits (RISP or HRs). It sucks watching them and say they're down by 2 or 3 runs in the 6th inning, and it's like, "Well, they can't possibly come back from that!" Previous Jays teams never had trouble scoring, and you instead had to worry about the 'pen maybe blowing it if the lead wasn't big enough. Looking back, that is a lot more fun to watch compared to this team that just can't score enough. They have 6 games left vs. Tampa, and the Rays could still win the division, so they'll be competing in those games. And 6 games vs. the Yankees, who are quite bad this year, but they'll still be trying to win just to play spoiler. I hope the M's can start racking up wins again and get into the WC.

As we near the end of Summer. Time for the Fall Lineup! Looks like it'll be mostly returning stuff for me on this lineup but we'll see if anything new catches my eye. https://anichart.net/Fall-2023 Shield Hero S3- Here's to hoping we pick up some slack in this. Goblin Slayer- Looking forward to more fantasy gore. SPYXFAM S2!!!!!!!!! FINALLY Part 2 of Dr. Stone: New World Saihate no Paladin S2- I know this was a nice easy paced series so I'm looking forward to this MAHOUTSUKE YOME S2 PT 2!!!!!!!- Gods yes plz moar FLCL:GRUNGE AND SHOEGAZE?! YAAAAAAS MORE LOVE SICK HARUKO PLEASE! New stuff/Maybes: Undead Unlock: Not sure how I feel about it. I'll give it a couple eps but might not vibe with me Apothecary Diaries: Sucker for period pieces and looks like it has some murder mystery involved a little. Mig to Dali: Weird mystery. Sounds...interesting enough to try it out. Like seriously other than what is returning and leftovers from Summer (not going over movies and OVA) There is not a lot in new content that's catching my fancy.

Got swept by the Dodgers, but Rangers and Astros didn't have a good weekend either. I think your Blue Jays are fine on getting a Wild Card spot. Just on the fact that Seattle and Texas have 7 games against each other left.
-
I was looking for it just a little bit ago and was disappointed I couldn’t find it on the app and didn’t want to buy it. Looks like I know what I’ll be reading now!

4. Fire Emblem 5. Fire Emblem Sacred Stones I've been playing through older Fire Emblems. Started Awakening as well. Plan on going through the others as well. Also playing Sea of Stars and should be finishing that pretty soon.

1. Pokemon Violet 2. :snes: Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past 3. Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage 4. Octopath Traveler 5. Metroid II: Return of Samus 6. :ps1: Oddworld: Abe's Oddyssee 7. God of War (2018) 8. :ps1: Crash Bandicoot 9. Spider-Man Remastered 10. :ps1: Crash Bandicoot 2 (100%) 11. Final Fantasy XVI 12. Spyro: Year of the Dragon (100%) 13. Jet Set Radio This has been a long time coming. Always loved this game, but never completed it all the way. I'd usually get to the point where the Golden Rhinos got involved, get frustrated with the increase in enemies combined with the awkward controls and would eventually just get bored/throw in the towel. Same thing sort of happened last time I started the game about a year or two ago, but I picked it back up to night to polish it off. Didn't really bother with getting every Graffiti Soul, but maybe I'll come back and do that piece by piece over time. Still a great game, even if the movement could be more responsive. The entire aesthetic of the game is just too cool that it's worth getting through any of the awkward bits.

For the starting salary with the way things are right now, yes, though not counting the annual bonus. Went into it knowing that. After a few years with the way the raises are handled, no, but tbh I was already at a point where there wasn't a dollar amount you could put next to the position and have it be worth it. Maybe in the future, but definitely not at the moment.
-
Honestly yeah it sounds like you were getting fucked. You'll probably end up making MORE as hourly.

I read about 10 chapters of YuYu Hakusho last night. Feels good man. I love the anime too. It's a shame that Togashi can't finish things properly, but the not-so-great ending doesn't ruin the rest of it for me. Such a great story. Also, totes agree re: Akane-banashi
-
I DO NOT LIKE THE RANGERS Hoping for a win tonight, but the Jays really haven't given me anything to be optimistic about since this series started... I definitely won't be shocked if they get swept
-
Bummer. That's a lot of backlog to catch up on!

Was an overnight assistant manager for walmart for a few months. But somewhere between a new inventory system that doesn't work, an inability to hire reliable people (we may luck into something eventually but I don't think this can ultimately be fixed, calling in is too ingrained into the local people), losing days off when the support managers don't show up and not making overtime for the 10-11 hours per day, I decided that I should probably drop back down to an hourly support manager instead I haven't watched anime in two season now 😢
-
Could they at least take one game?
- Earlier
-
I saw that and considered doing the same because I never finished the anime proper. Akane-banashi #76 and 77

YuYu Hakusho just hit the vault in the Jump app! Commence binge reading in 3, 2, 1...!
