    Anime/Manga we forgot about.

    I never watched the anime, but the D.Gray-man manga was pretty good for quite a while. I only stopped reading it when the releases became too erratic (I guess it started to feel a bit directionless around the same time). But the concept was cool, the art was nice for a Jump series, it had a good set of characters.... it's a shame how things turned out, really. As for Clamp, I wish they had stopped working in about 2002, most of what they've done since then has been kind of bad. Honestly, in my mind Tsubasa doesn't even exist. The new Sakura manga is ok so far, but I'm not really sure it was necessary; the original series ended so nicely.

    Favorite Alcohol

    Spirits: Whisky - specifically Islay scotches. Ardbeg Uigeadail is my go-to choice, it has a nice touch of sweetness alongside the huge smokey flavour. I'm pretty partial to Armagnac as well, but I normally only bother getting one around Christmastime. Cocktails: Generally Aperol Spritz in the daytime, Negroni in the evening. Lighter stuff: Normally white wine. Sancerre or something similar if I feel like splashing out, but any dry white is usually pretty drinkable. Cider is good on a nice Summer's day. I very rarely drink beer though.

    Fruits Basket

    I'm quite looking forward to it! I did read the manga, but I honestly can't remember much of what happened at all past a certain point (I guess it was shortly after it ended, so quite a long time ago...). So it's going to feel sort of new to me, which is cool.

    Ultimate Travel Wishlist

    Definitely recommend Venice; it's so beautiful and other-worldly that you sort of stop noticing the touristy bits after a short while. Florence didn't quite live up to expectations for me, but I think it's probably worth a visit just for the crazy art collection they have there. As for my list: Europe Tonnes more places in Italy. The main places I definitely want to go to are Siena and a few other towns in Tuscany; South to Napoli and the Amalfi Coast; Cinque Terre looks amazing; and Rome, which we still haven't got around to visiting. But I have a really huge list of towns and cities there I want to see, so maybe one day we'll have to go for a few months or something. Some of the cities in central Europe. Especially Prague, and also Budapast, Vienna, Salzburg etc. Maybe it'd be nice to go through the Alsps in Spring/Summer too, I've only been in Winter. Dubrovnik. It just looks beautiful. Lisbon - I've been to Portugal a few times, but never to Lisbon. It looks really cool, and from what I can gather has a really nice, chilled vibe. Brugges. It's the Venice of the North, after all! Somewhere in Northern Scandinavia to see the Northern Lights. Possibly Tromso? Not Europe Tokyo. It's not so much a weeb dream anymore, but I think it'd be a very interesting place to visit. Also, I could stock up on clothes that actually fit me properly. Hong Kong and/or Shanghai. I can't even explain why, really; I just kind of love that sort of place. New York. I go in and out of fancying a visit to New York (mainly depending on how much I've been listening to Vampire Weekend recently), but I imagine it'd be pretty cool. Istanbul. OK, it's sort of Europe. >_> But also sort of not, and perhaps that's the appeal of it. My biggest travel regret, I think, is not going to Istanbul about 10 years ago, before things there got a bit hot in various ways. I'm probably forgetting some places, but that's most of my list. It's hard, though, since I also want to re-visit lots of places I've already been, and I don't really get enough time off work to go on that many holidays (heck, there's bits of the UK I haven't been to yet as well)

    Super Smash Bros Ultimate

    Who do you main? I haven't really settled on anyone yet, but I'm leaning towards Roy, with Duckhunt as a left field pick. Do you think you're any good? Nah. I think I'm better than I was at Brawl, but nowhere near what I was with Melee. Splatoon eats up pretty much all my gaming time, so I'm entirely casual with Smash. What controller do you use? Joycons with the grip. We actually pre-ordered a Gamecube adaptor from Nintendo, but it still hasn't arrived... Anyway, yeah, I like the game. Definitely a step in the right direction (I didn't enjoy Brawl that much). I mean, Piranha Plant alone is enough to make it worth playing.

    Pokemon General

    Team SOBBLE Tbh I'm not that fond of any of the starters, but Sobble is probably going to be some cool massive lizard in its final form, it's definitely going to end up the best.
