Yeah, and as much as I could read the daily hijinx stuff for ages, there's a consistent trajectory of character development that necessitates a somewhat finite ending. So yeah, if they can drag it out and be engaging, I definitely won't complain. But I'll take a great story that knows where to end over a Death Note situation any day.

Ch. 55

I legitimately didn't think we'd be getting an anime so soon, but I'm beyond excited. I really grew attached to this one and it feels so sentimental and wholesome while being truly engaging. So it'll be awesome to hear it with audio and motion. Also it'll be a lot easier to trick friends into watching the anime over reading the manga

Finally bought this a few days ago. I'm absolutely in love. Everything I could ask for in a modern Metroid game. E.M.M.I. sections start getting annoying by the 5th one, but the checkpoints are forgiving enough that I'm cool with the challenge.

Elusive Samurai

Sakamoto Days has been extra violent lately. Really digging the direction of the current arc so far. Neru 14

PPPPPP 5 Dr. Stone 214

Well agreed!

Yeah, as long as they don't get rid of the old plan, I won't holler too much other than my own laments. If they were upgrading all this to dash away the old plan, I'd be a bit more up in arms about it.

Yeah, but that's a $40 chunk per person once per year. And neither of us use the features enough to justify paying 40 bucks each. I have no problem covering the 35 yearly so we can both be able to play online plus get NES/SNES games, but I know she wouldn't want to spend an extra $40 dollars when she's not even going to touch those games for the most part. I'm not even trying to argue whether it's a bad business move or anything. It's just a decision that doesn't cater to me at all which sucks because I would have liked to play N64 games with proper resolution for HDTVs and not have to worry about potential emulation errors. But people are going to pay for it and Nintendo will continue to make money, so I'm just kind of left in the dust unless I want to fork up an extra $40 bucks.

$30 jump is annoying. $45 jump is even more annoying if you're doing the family deal so both you and your partner can play online. So yeah, I'm not paying $80 a year for this. I have a Genesis Mini and I can just emulate N64 games if I can't find cheap physical copies

Dr. Stone The Elusive Samurai The Hunters Guild 14 Neru 13 Also, Kaiju No. 8 was really good this week. Really good action and some evolution of the protagonist's abilities. The last few chapters were a bit weak in week-to-week waiting, but this chapter felt like a pretty good payoff for the patience.

Yeah, Neru's moving along at a nice clip with some interesting characters. Still really digging the art style, too. It feels classic, but stands out from a lot of the stuff today. The Elusive Samurai felt a bit uneventful, but the build-up really has me hyped for the verbal clash that's about to occur. I feel a bit like the arc in Hunter's guild could maybe move a bit faster. Last week's chapter was fine getting some background for Bonkers, but this one felt more like treading water. But I like some of the characters introduced so far and am really looking forward to Velou's proper training once they get off the ship. Unless they pull a twist where they're thrust into danger immediately after the Debarkation Exam. Which I wouldn't be surprised with this manga so far. Also, it just struck me there was no Dr. Stone this week. A bit of a shame, but there's a solid roster of new series right now that it's not as noticeable. I'm still like 5 weeks behind on Undead Unluck, Witch Watch, and Sakamoto Days.

Special illustration today T_T (Though, totally understandable)

Been listening to these two tracks on repeat today:

Do you know anything about the shit that apparently went down with the homophobic/racist chants and all that junk?

This is really interesting timing, because a co-worker just told me today how they were getting into Tokyo Revengers and recommended it to me. I guess I have to watch it now.

Yeah, I had the same problem. Like I said, though, I think it sort of works with the story/characterization It definitely made it harder to get attached to at first.

This is a perfect opportunity to show off some of my favorite DBZ AMVs that survived the annals of time
