Finished 正々堂々 (Seisei Douodou) which means "fair and square" (the English translation for this book is "This Monk Wears Heels".)
Great non-fiction about Kodo Nishimura, a non-binary person talking about their life and sharing nuggets of wisdom about self-love and self-acceptance.
N2 level
★★★★☆

Finished reading "Project Hail Mary" by Andy Weir. An excellent story to start off my year for novels! The beginning of this reminded me a ton of the author's earlier work "The Martian," but eventually there's a twist that completely changes the plot's direction and it's fantastic stuff.

Porco Rosso (1992) • rewatch — Of all the Ghibli films, this is the one that has stuck with me the most over the years. It's not the most entertaining or most emotional entry in that library, but it's entertaining and emotional enough, while also feeling personal and thoughtful.

Randomly felt the need to rewatch Hazel's "Anime Countryside" video. Wonderful stuff! So many little observations / asides that strongly resonate with me. I really need to check out some of these #anime and/or #manga

A little mad at myself for writing this one off for years because the reviews weren't very good. It's a perfectly lovely little dungeon crawler with cute characters and very chill music. Having a good time. <3 This is why you should always try games for yourself, especially if you like the genre.
Character models in this are really cute, especially certified best girl Chain's. Does the Skies of Arcadia thing of having a few textures for different facial expressions. Think they're actually a much better execution of a similar style to Grandia 2's models despite being nearly two years older.

Cosmic Princess Kaguya! (2026) — Was intrigued by this one when trailers first showed. The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter (aka Princess Kaguya story) is my favorite bit of folklore, and I also like Vocaloid and stories that blend sci-fi with fantasy. The animation also looked really nice.

it's a sad casualty of a very locked down controller ecosystem (among other things) that games basically don't come with goofy peripherals anymore to support unique experiences
not all of them were good but there's no ps5 controller that has a spinner on it so clearly something is wrong

This is the best random encounter in Final Fantasy. I will not be hearing further arguments at this time
