    Add to your reading list the ‘Just Listen to the Song’ one-shot. It is short and I thought it was amusing

    Jump app says Chainsaw Man returns July 12 ? I agree re: Akane-banashi. It’s probably too early for a big happy ending, but I really am gonna be bummed out if Akane’s performance doesn’t go well Are you caught up on Earthchild? This story is crazy. One tragedy after another, hard to keep up This week’s chapter was interesting and I’m curious to see what happens next, but I’d also like for this thing to end sooner than later

    New Dr. Stone one-shot! I rather enjoyed it. They have some very ambitious plans for the future! The Elusive Samurai #69 (nice ) — Great action in this one! Eat it, Kokushi!!!

    Summer Anime '22

    Got to watching Yurei Deco sooner than I thought I would. It’s interesting! I’m not in love with the aesthetics, but it’s definitely got style. OP and ED are both earworms I’m curious to learn more about what’s going on in the weird world this show is set in.

    Summer Anime '22

    I tried out another new anime original last night, Engage Kiss, and thought it was pretty bad. Not likely to watch more of it. Also: The first episode of Yurei Deco is up now on Crunchyroll so I’ll be watching that tonight.

    Summer Anime '22

    Checking out some new stuff this evening… Lycoris Recoil #1 — Looks like something I’ll keep watching. Fun cast of characters, Chisato especially and I’m interested to learn more about lycoris and the work they do. The idea of stopping crimes before they happen is reminiscent of Psycho-Pass but the vibe of this show is very different.

    Diablo 2 Resurrected

    Patch 2.4.3 dropping tomorrow -- patch notes here Some very nice quality of life improvements in here. Console people are getting a bit of love: Added a new "Loot to Cube" skill for controllers in the general skills menu. Using this skill on an item will pick it up and place it in your Horadric Cube, if there is space. Players can now bulk assign stat points using a controller. Finally characters with full inventories can pick up items straight to the Cube without having to drop stuff out of inventory first. Much less tedious. Re-spec'ing will also be a million times faster with the ability to bulk assign points. Cain can now also ID unidentified items that are in the Cube. That is a nice little time-saver. Finally, the changes to Whirlwind sound nice. I am keen to test them out. All the online stuff doesn't concern me as I only play offline single player... but the Magic Find event sounds fun, even if 50% added MF isn't that big of a bonus.

    Baseball Talk

    The O's have a decent lineup, and some surprisingly OK arms in the bullpen. Not much starting pitching though. The Jays have been stinking it up lately. Can't seem to win a series anymore. The division is most likely out of reach now. But if they keep going they way they have in the last 1-2 weeks, they'll be dropping out of the Wild Card picture before long too. Ugh.

    Spy X Family

    Episode 12 was a great wrap to the first part of the anime! Several laugh-out-loud moments. My kiddo loved it. Today’s new chapter (64) was also stellar. Spy x Family can do no wrong right now

    Summer Anime '22

    Crunchyroll is starting to release their summer lineup. Still some TBD's on there, but quite a few details are already out... We've got a few new anime originals in there that I will have a look at, the OddTaxi movie (yay!), the Dr. Stone special, Shadows House season 2... No signs of Overlord yet... I had assumed it would be available on Crunchyroll.

    Komi Can't Communicate

    Episode #21 — fantastic stuff! Sasaki and Kato both grew on me really fast. Great new supporting characters. The whole Movie Land scene (and aftermath) was gold.

    Spring Anime 2022

    I’m really gonna miss Deaimon I’m glad that Shield Hero is done though It was actually a fairly strong finish, but overall the second season was crummy. Don’t want more.

    I got the FFV Pixel Remaster on my phone. Pretty impressed with it so far.

    There's a chance that 'new content' also means old content has been changed and/or removed to help the whole thing make more sense -- that's the glass-half-full way of looking at it, anyways

    Completed Games 2022

    Switch is all I've got, so that's where I'll be playing once I buy it. If I can ever pry myself away from D2:R, that is... also the Fiesta...

    I keep telling myself I’m gonna re-watch G Reco one of these days and that it will eventually make sense (perhaps after multiple re-watches and a lot of meditation ) Maybe the movies fix it..?

    Summer Anime '22

    A good isekai is a fun time, but there are so many bad / so-so isekai out there. Really have to pick the right one. (Give me another season of Grimgar please, anime gods??? ) I guess it's a popular genre overall otherwise there wouldn't be so many all the time.

    Spy X Family

    I dunno if it's correct or not -- I assume it is -- but MAL says 12 episodes running from April 9 to June 25, and then part two is 13 episodes to begin airing October 2022. I'd rather it run across two consecutive seasons, as I'm really enjoying the anime, but at least a 3-4 month break for a split cour isn't tooooooo long of a wait.
  23. ...just make me a mod/admin already. I'll work the morning shift. For free! I can clean this stuff up.

    Looks to be a few different isekai airing this summer. But if I watch Overlord then I probably won't be too interested in the other ones. Already been watching Shield Hero this season. I'll be isekai'd out

    Spy X Family

    Yeah no spoilers here You'll see eventually in the anime... though maybe not until the fall..? I think this first part is 12 episodes, ending next weekend, and then part two doesn't air until the fall season
