10/10/25, Movie #2

Return of the Living Dead 3

Brian Yuzna my goat delivers once again...now that's a fuckin' movie. This kicked ass, had heart, and crazy good special effects. A worthy successor to the franchise name. Gross, gory, nihilistic, very OVA-core. Bandai Visual is involved, even!

when i was a kid i didn't understand how this worked and i thought every CD that was manufactured had to have a monster put onto it. like they'd go up to ringo starr or whatever and ask him what monster he wants and he'd say "ouhh this DEfinitely has a "Battle Rocks" quality to it! peace and love.!"

trying to embrace this attitude in my life

edit of the meme where klimton nicchini from gundam reconguista in G says "i am a genius! oh no!" so he still looks excited in the second shot and is saying "yeah!" instead

A bit of art to celebrate the (slightly belated) birthday of Miss Macross herself, Lynn Minmay!

Very fun piece of art by Takehisa Kishi poking fun at the idea of Robotech combining Macross, Southern Cross, and Mospeada for the US.

From a piece on robot anime being exported to the US, published in the December 1985 issue of Animage.

An illustration with the text "Robotech Magro" at top, depicting a VF-1J Valkyrie from Macross, VR-052F Mospeada from Mospeada, and GMP Armor Suit from Southern Cross wielding a Tuna-shaped cannon and blasting Macross's Britai, who emits a "YEEARGH!" In the bottom-right, Macross's Minmay cheers, "Thank you! Robotech! Kya! Kya!"

The Scott Pilgrim comic is WAY different from the film.

The first panel of Volume 1 of the Scott Pilgrim manga. Text reads: Scott Pilgrim is dating the baby from Dinosaurs.

Textless version of my cover for the 3rd volume of @giantrobotfm.bsky.social's zine covering the PS1 Armored Core trilogy! A joy to work on, as always!

Fun Fact: The cover AC here is actually modeled on the one GRFM co-host @pmctrilogy.bsky.social used during his Project Phantasma run at AGDQ 2023!

An illustration of a mech from the Armored Core games, rendered with gold lines and a black fill on a glowing blue grid with a darker blue background.

Quattro makes a stunning declaration at Dakar.

Quattro Bajeena from Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam confesses to a group of friends. Text boxes read "guys... i have one thing more thing I must disclose before i say what i came to say...". In the second image he has removed his glasses and says "i have another name... i am also the man known as Char Aznable." The final image reveals Kamille, the ghost of Lalah, and Zeta Gundam-era Amuro in a field of confetti, with a banner Reading "Gay is okay!" Kamille and Amuro carrying pride flags and Lalah holding a trans-pride cake, with Kamille wearing a shirt that says "i <3 trans"

The End of the Millennium... from Mega Drive!

Love, love, LOVE the live-action bits and how awesome the costumes are and the big ol' electrified arm that looks like it's a particularly crude bit of cyberwear.

Girls are always saying this.

Hotaru, sitting in seiza position in the back of Big Lander, talking ot no one in particular, finishes the hint phrase regarding the Power of Legend. "Let the golden light be gathered, that a new path shall open."

A sincere belief in a better tomorrow defeats all evil. True Bravery is found in respect for all life, something only you can cultivate in yourself. It is up to you to make your own future and forge your own path.

So says The Brave Fighter of Legend Da-Garn, a quite lovely little show.

Seiji winks and gives a peace sign at the viewer.

Making people get into You're Under Arrest, as well as its phenomenal English dub produced by the criminally under-discussed Coastal Carolina, is part of my life's work. There's a whole podcast where I made my beloved host @nocartridge.bsky.social watch the OVA open.spotify.com/episode/1s9r...
