Happy 25th anniversary Eternal Arcadia, aka Skies of Arcadia, released in Japan on 5th October 2000!

One of my fave DC games. <3

I'll mark the occasion by sharing some sweet character concept sketches from its development.

Are you saying it's a...hidden gem?

Officially created a Sentai FIlmworks BD wishlist for shit that's only cheap or on sale. Like, I don't really NEED a copy of Kandagawa Jet Girls...but if it's like $10...?

Took a nap today. Dreamed that Elon Musk was sentenced to death. Walked into a room where he was desperately pleading with a judge to no avail. Told him that Teslas suck and left. His response was: Ha, what do you drive, a Porsche?

Nothing beats taking a nap on a rainy afternoon with the TV on and dozing off with raindrops, a slight roll of thunder, and the soothing sounds of bickering between 80s gay power couple Megatron and Starscream in the background

Where the fuck are families and single guys in the barracks with no car supposed to get food? And don't tell me the DFAC.

I know these guys are all dumber than a sack of hammers, but it is fascinating to see the military decide “logistics are gay” in real time

All the shit those two went through and they STILL end up together? If that's not true love then I don't know what is.

Saw a picture of Eric Stoltz from when he was shooting Back to the Future and he's basically Hook. He's 85% Hook.

A show that that can never be brought over legally because a female character is portrayed as antagonistic with the Imperial March from Star Wars playing in the background whenever she appears

Also, it's a great J-Drama too

I'm so excited to share my first article written for @animeherald.com.

This year has marked the 20th anniversary of the Japanese drama "Densha Otoko" (Train Man), an endearing show based on an at least partly true story. If you ever find it, please watch it, it is wonderful.

Densha Otoko, 20 Years Later: Why the TV Drama is Still Great in an Ever-Changing Otaku Landscape

Twenty years later, the TV drama adaptation of Densha Otoko remains undefeated in the realm of Japanese drama shows. It’s a wonderful depiction of real anime otaku and their interests that manages to ...

It's very good but it's still a distant third behind Your Name and Future Diary respectively

Pride and Prejudice. Romeo and Juliet. The Notebook. These are some of the stories considered the greatest romances of all time, but to me, none of them compares to Maison Ikkoku.

The anime DVDs I have sold and have no intention of ever upgrading or buying ever again. Only ONE THING HERE is something I will get one day if it gets a Blu-ray release and only my closest friends know the answer.
