No thank you? The party here is already enough of an embarrassing mess.

That’s actually been a common thing for these kinds of phone numbers since the ‘80s. I remember being confused on why some infomercial numbers were too long.

Your phone would basically just ignore the final number, and it was only there to make a more catchy number to promote.

If only we’d given them another year, that wouldn’t have happened!

(If only Crunchyroll hadn’t gotten involved.)

With the arrival of the OVAs and Features, the four year wait officially comes to an end.

Dirty Pair blu-ray collections for the TV series, OVAs, and three movies.

Im one of those people who loves the idea of concerts if I can get a seat where I’m sitting down the entire time relaxing while listening to the music. 😅

There also this kinda near Shintom VCR-500 model VCR. Never in my life heard of the brand, but it’s a Japanese one.

We’re at the Goodwill “last chance bins” shop, and someone found a bunch of late ‘70s Star Wars and Star Trek posters in fantastic condition.

I don’t know how they even made it this far to show up in this place. I was kinda jealous as he was looking through them.

...I almost hate to say this, but I'm actually impressed the comments weren't devolving in the way I was instantly expected.

I just spent $90 on Fortnite Vbucks. I don't know that I've spent that amount in the entire history of the game up until this point.

The twins don't really ask for a lot most of the time though, and they're doing fantastic in school, so full KPDH skins sets for all three of us it is.

OK Bluesky friends. Use the code “BSTariffRefund” on checkout to save 15%. Let me explain.

So, since the new shipping restrictions and tariffs went into effect my sales have fallen off a cliff. And in the last 2 weeks I have received only a single order. (1/5)

Well, that's the big question. Back when it was still Nozomi handling this, I'd have said after some period of exclusivity for backers.

Now that Crunchyroll bought them out, a lot of people are wondering if there will be any further printings. So no good answer for now.

Mollie L Patterson @mollipen.bsky.social · 12d

Just got it a couple hours ago, so haven't had the chance to check it out at all yet. I sure hope so though, giving the amount of content that's missing from what was promised!

Mollie L Patterson @mollipen.bsky.social · 12d

Oh also, my copy of Dirty Pair came already damaged, so that’s cool.

Yeah, that was the whole purpose of the Kickstarter. I just wanted everything on Blu-ray.

Zoey's character model from Fortnite got leaked. KPop Demon Hunters supposedly arriving next week.

As a parent to two daughters who have been asking me near daily when KPDH was coming to the game: Goodbye money, I'll miss you.

Hey look, they finally arrived! Now to wait for the OVAs + movies to hopefully also show up soon.

(This case kinda sucks, but whatever I guess.)

So, there’s no way Forza Horizon 6 doesn’t include a City Pop radio station, right?

It's like someone said, "Mollie doesn't hate Crunchyroll enough, let's find a reason to REALLY make them her arch enemy."

I ask for so little in this world anime-wise at this point, why did this have to get fucked up?

David Miranda 🦊🇨🇴 @dubudavid.bsky.social · 18d

So, folks are finally getting their Dirty Pair BDs after 4 fucking years, & here’s the TLDR on what we all expected
1. Several missing stretch goals
2. Bootleg-tier art design/packaging. Cases are low quality & discs are stacked
3. No menu music. It takes <5sec to cut an OP out of an audio file btw
