I like a happy ending so I guess I'm OK with how they finished Neverland because it was a happy ending + no cliffhanger or threat of a 3rd season But wow what a bad final episode. It was more of a slideshow than an animation. Nice transitions I have zero interest in reading the manga.

I probably won't have the opportunity to get a shot until the summer. We're progressing much slower in Canada. I'm currently going through another bout of pandemic fatigue though, so I don't particularly care right now Give it a few weeks and I'll be paranoid again and wanting to get a shot at the first opportunity, but for now I'm good.

I have now arrived at the Golden Saucer. I'm kicking myself a little bit because I just realized I missed the second Enemy Skill materia in Junon. Hopefully it's still there waiting for me when I go back to the Junon area after I get the Buggy. Gotta go on a little Enemy Skill learning spree.

I'm gonna have to re-watch WEP today because I watched it late last night and I was nodding off near the end, but wow there was a lot going on in that episode. Poor Frill

Yeah I bought my PSTV for $60 CAD about 4 years ago. The seller was actually a writer/reviewer for The Vita Lounge. He probably got it during the PSTV fire sale when stores were liquidating them, so he gave me a reasonable price. When I sold my Vita gear a couple years ago, prices were starting to creep up a bit but I still sold it for $60. I don't think it would have been too hard to get $100+ for it. Now the ads I see online are asking $200-250 I guess people just assume they're more valuable because they're not made anymore..? I'm sure there's some room to haggle, those are just asking prices, but I wouldn't even bother trying to bargain with somebody asking $200+ for a PSTV.

I was thinking about getting another Vita recently, but the asking prices are getting pretty stupid. PSTV especially.

Grisha's kinda flying under the radar here; what a shitty father

OK so instead of sending Anelle to beat you up, maybe we'll just send a prank pizza delivery to your place. Get your credit card ready, it's going to be a lot of (expensive) pizza.

Yeah I think it's been helpful to see and hear some of this stuff animated. The manga is great too, and I like how when reading manga there's sometimes more room for interpretation on the part of the reader... you can use your imagination to fill in some gaps a bit and add to the story in your head. But maybe I don't always see things the same way the author did or intended me to. The added dimensions of animation and voice acting are nice. (Of course I'm also assuming here that the anime is a true representation of what Isayama intended when writing the manga... I guess only he knows the answer to that!)

Attack on Titan #73 and #74 -- I'm enjoying the slow parts, the Zeke back story, etc., but I get why some people don't like it. I love the back-and-forth between Zeke and Levi especially. That scene with Eren talking to Armin and Mikasa was harsh to see animated Kemono Jihen -- Death by snu-snu for Yui..?

Happy birthday Lucy! Why not come back and post a bit?

Yeah I read 138 last week. Quite the cliffhanger on the last page. I'm very curious to see how it all wraps up in the end next month!

Neverland

That was a lot packed into one episode of WEP The kendo coach...

Just got out of Midgar earlier today. I thought that first part of the game was longer... guess it's just my memory playing tricks on me. It was pretty quick. I'm trying to use characters I never used much in my original play throughs, so I'm rolling with Tifa and Red right now (along with Cloud of course). Tifa probably gets the boot in favour of Cait Sith once he joins the party. I don't think I actually like this game as much as I used to think I did, but it's not so bad that I will stop playing... I don't think

Wow. That's how strong the power of The Rumbling is Apparently episodes 73 and 74 will broadcast back-to-back this week, so I'll have to wait until Sunday to watch.

SnK hasn't come up on Crunchyroll or Funi yet. Guess I'll have to check back tomorrow... Kemono Jihen

Horimiya - SK8 - "9.5" ugh it's a damn recap episode. Why?

Squeenix has a Spring Sale on the eShop right now. Most of the prices aren't great, but I impulse bought the FF7 port for ~$10. Gonna start playing tonight! It's been a looooooong time...

I wish I had explosive paper airplanes Neverland -- Vincent you crooked fucker

Dang. That looks pretty rad. Tribute Games have made some good games so that is promising.

That was an interesting twist in Wonder Egg Priority at the end of the latest episode, it adds a bit of extra intrigue for me that wasn't there before.

I mostly just mash the buttons through RPG dialog until it goes away and I can get along with the gameplay I read enough to get the gist of the story, but just the bare minimum. Crystals, save the world, yep OK, off we go now!
