Finished Ayakashi Triangle vol 2! It keeps feeling like maybe it's going to do something more substantial with its story, then swings back hard into fanservice antics. Hoping some of the characters introduced in this volume get to do more in the future though.

#SlazoCollection Day 482. Star Wars: Bounty Hunter! While I know a non-zero amount of people like Star Wars, I didn’t recall any other SW games on the Gamecube bar Rogue Squadron. Then again, shootybangs were starting to find their feet at this time, so maybe a Jango Fett game isn’t that surprising.

Overheard a teenager deploy "SHUT UP, BRO. You watch AI porn!" as a devastating insult to one of his friends, which sent the rest of their group into a laughing fit.

I've just read the series for the next #TrashMangaFriends recording, and... oh no...

#SlazoCollection Day 481. She And Her Cat! I've actually consumed this same story in three different ways. There's this manga version and the original OVA, both of which... aren't great, but then there's the Everything Flows short series, which was brilliant and in my top five anime of 2016.

#SlazoCollection Day 480. Zoo Keeper! It's still crazy thinking back on how stacking the DS launch lineup was. Zoo Keeper was a simple match-3 puzzler that was addictive but frustrating as heck, and good fun between sessions of longer games like Mario 64 DS.

#SlazoCollection Day 479. Petey Piranha plushie! One of these where my mother became obsessed with saying their name so obviously she picked up the plushie for me. Petey is a great Sunshine boss though. Until he does his tornado attack three times and refuses to vomit. That doesn't help speedruns...

#SlazoCollection Day 478. Fate/Samurai Remnant! Despite playing FGO for years, I’ve not really touched most of the Fate franchise. So why this one? The story? The gameplay? Or the fact it essentially has Lancer Jalter in it? Imagine if it was the latter. >_>

#SlazoCollection Day 477. Toki Asuma Nendoroid! Toki getting a Nendo felt inevitable, and here we are. Still one of my Blue Archive faves, though events are making others in that game grow on me…

#SlazoCollection Day 476. Half-Minute Hero! While I'll never go to bat for the PSP's library, it did get a few really neat exclusives, and Half-Minute Hero's up there for me. Think JRPGs are too long? Great, then beat the boss in 30 seconds. A cool concept the game fully explores in all its modes.

#SlazoCollection Day 475. Maomao plushie! Bought in the early days of me using Goodsmile where wow, this looked like a bargain. And then I realised it was only one plush, not two, and it’s tiny compared to most other plushies. Lesson was very much learned that day.

#SlazoCollection Day 474. Disney Epic Mickey! Disney and games have always had a curious relationship, where every few years they seem to put some effort into a release, then vanish again. I remember the fanfare around Epic Mickey at the time, so nice to have this in my library now.

#SlazoCollection Day 473. Doctor Who 50th Anniversary Books! It was an interesting journey reading all these... a decade ago, christ. Some are... well, dogwater, but there's a few gems too. Festival of Death was the standout for me, weaving myriad intriguing plots together seamlessly.

Finished Gachiakuta vol 5! Everytime I felt I had a grasp on the Amo arc, oh boy did I not. A journey, and probably the series' best volume so far.

#SlazoCollection Day 472. Casper Spirit Dimensions! The fun part about deciding to collect a console’s library is you get to see all the weird and wonderful shit you never gave a second thought before. Like, Casper got a game!? Did they see Luigi’s Mansion and go “wait a minute…” 😂

#SlazoCollection Day 471. Pokémon Adventures RGBY arcs! While I've never been in the "the manga is the best version" camp of Pokéfans, it is truly interesting to see its quite different take on the series compared to the games and anime. And the Yellow arc remains a brilliant 4 volume run.

The wheel was spun and heroes were chosen. Sonic Heroes, to be precise. Time to replay one of my favourite Sonic games on www.twitch.tv/slazoking

Y'know it's a good thing it's not a medical emergency I need to speak to my GP about, because I'd have died otherwise during the 50,000 step process to fecking eConsult.

#SlazoCollection Day 470. Kirby Air Riders! What a world where Kirby Air Ride of all games got a sequel. Been trying to hunt down a copy of the original in the flesh for yeeeaaaars, but this’ll help with the cravings. 😂

#SlazoCollection Day 469. Popup Parade Panty & Stocking! “There’s no way this’ll be good” said me in 2010. Boy what an idiot Gainax made me look, in their last hurrah before the studio’s total implosion. I really love that these are done in the show’s style too rather than the normal Popup one.

#SlazoCollection Day 468. Arcana Heart 3! From that short period of my life where I was trying (and failing, badly) to get into anime fighters. And even then, Arcana Heart feels obscure compared to the BlazBlues or Guilty Gears. Have they even made another one since?

#SlazoCollection Day 467. Ash Ketchum plushie! Yes, of course I have an Ash plushie. And of course it's him from the Diamond & Pearl era, the best arc of the anime. Watching that week by week was an absolute joy, and I still get cravings to rewatch it even today.
