Just watched the Boruto Movie. I kept putting it off because the first scene of the anime involving Kawaki was so well animated that I thought Kawaki stuff was part of the movie but it turns out it had nothing to do with it and I'd passed the part of the anime that told this story a long time ago I think it was okay overall. The anime's additions really fleshed things out a lot more so you actually grew to like Boruto a bit and being disappointed in his actions instead of spending 2/3rds of the movie disliking him. Or Naruto being a neglectful father was driven home a lot more. Or with Sarada's relationship with Sasuke is heavily dealt with instead of just "Oh it's just my silly dad who's technically an exile and I don't even know who he is." Or the continuation of the Ohtsutsuki storyline with more interesting tidbits to it than the movie (and a bridge into the Kawaki stuff, which I think even as a rehash is getting pretty good). The last battle scene was still mostly spectacular though (there's a view "fight with Pain" style animation hiccups).

Man, splitting up Slime like this has lead me to forgetting who half of the characters are and what all of the politics mean, so the last few episodes have been a lot of me just going "Something's definitely happening here, couldn't tell you what." Probably will have to rewatch this in full some day

He's also to blame for the Rangers being bad for a significant stretch of time and being so-so competitively once they lucked into Lundqvist Do they talk about Lebron and Durant and everyone else snubbing them for other places?

IMPORTANT: The third season of Drive to Survive is juicy as fuck.

31) Metroid Zero Mission (6:03:09, 71%) Big fan of the cutscene additions, new side areas and additions. I find OG NES Metroid unplayable (and really, it felt unplayable once the SNES generation started, I used a FAQ and Save States the one time I did beat it) so something like this as an alternative is great. Jumping felt too finicky (always does for me in Metroid games) and still not a fan of the Missile firing and diagonal aiming controls but I guess there was only so much you could do on the GBA with only four buttons. Didn't bother with 100%ing once I found out that you had to do a lot of complex sparkshine jumping chains.

Economics of it are tricky, I guess. Mecha's not as popular as it used to be and new serious Gundams are expensive to make (everything after IBO was a movie or an ONA with a handful of episodes and a high budget), and they can just make those Gundam Build or Gunpla animes instead with kids playing with Gundam toys and sell more shit that way.

Awriiiight Boruto just hit another pretty good part. Just in time for some more anime-canon/filler

I love that their first show back is a Mystery Vortex

FORZA ITALIA

There are elements of the Elite fanbase that I really don't like, and the Jim Ross disrespect is definitely one of them

Kanojo mo Kanojo 2 Holy fucking shit, the classroom scene

Yoshaaaa, Slime and Dragon Maid both back

IT BEGINS

That's a hell of a hockey team if they take it easy and still only lose in overtime

Please no Just be a weirdo guy talking this shit like OG Bray Wyatt, not The Fiend

Let's do the North Division + Seattle again next year

30) Bleach: Soul Resurreccion (Platinum) Like 5 hours to see the end-credits and 250 to pop the Platinum. Four Ultra Rare trophies and easy to use as a podcast game though. Pretty much a Dynasty Warriors-like anime game (it's not made by Koei-Tecmo so not quite the same), has a good combat flow to it but leveling up and completing every mission with every character was a huge pain.

Eyyyyy Switch OLED

Welp

Don't know if I'll stick with it, especially because Part 2 of Season 2 of Slime is also this season, but How A Realist Hero Rebuilt The Kingdom was okay

It's like when Roger met Rayleigh, except Rayleigh is his girlfriend and the adventure he wants to go on is another girlfriend

Kanojo mo Kanojo is the greatest single episode of anime I've ever seen in my entire life
