I've been working on this write-up on-and-off for months. I didn't expect it to be so gargantuan, but I hope it's still fun to read. I don't know if I will write any more posts like this, as I want to focus on my Let's Plays for now. But I felt this game, as big... Continue Reading →
All the kids are into streaming nowadays, right? Well, my poor potato laptop can’t even run OBS properly, so I’m doing the next best thing. I started up a Let’s Play channel, to go in depth with some of my favorite games and give a few lesser known ones a spotlight. I like to do... Continue Reading →
I want to be real. Things haven't felt right for a while now. This past year and a half has been hard on all of us. I want to talk about this game, not because it's taken 150+ hours of my life to complete, but because every second I had the biggest, stupidest smile on... Continue Reading →
Hey y’all. It’s been a while since I’ve posted regularly on here, and I wanted to explain what’s been going on and where I’m at mentally. To be honest, I’m kinda burned out on the whole blogging thing. I’ve done like 20 different drafts on various topics, but I can’t seem to finish any of... Continue Reading →
This was supposed to be done by Mother's Day, but I never do anything on time, so why start now? I wanted to do this cute post on my favorite anime moms for a while now, but I realized that way too many moms in anime die before the opening credits. That would make this... Continue Reading →
I’m 100% Shonen trash, which means I love Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba. The gorgeously detailed setpieces, unique historical setting, and memorable cast of characters (and Zenitsu) made for one of the most exciting Shonen Jump series in recent memory. I binged the entire manga shortly after finishing the first anime season, which only made... Continue Reading →
Like many old-school Nintendo fans, I first discovered Fire Emblem from Super Smash Bros. Melee. The long-running strategy RPG series was Japan-exclusive for the longest time, since Nintendo thought the games would be too complicated for our tiny Western brains. But once I unlocked Marth, and his hot-headed counterpart, Roy, in Smash, I just had... Continue Reading →
This one hurts, y’all. MASSIVE ENDING SPOILERS for the anime, mild manga spoilers ahead I’ve been a huge fan of The Promised Neverland ever since the first season dropped. I was so enamored with the story that I read the entire manga on the Shonen Jump mobile app. I couldn’t wait to see Emma, Ray,... Continue Reading →
When I was a kid, my favorite thing in the world was my dog-eared Game Boy Color. My family traveled a lot, and that little purple box was one of the few things that kept me sane on our endless car rides. I only had a few games on it: Pokémon (duh), Super Mario Bros.,... Continue Reading →
The 90’s and early 2000’s were a golden age for the JRPG genre. Games like Final Fantasy VII and Xenogears redefined video games as a storytelling medium with their rich characters and deep themes. But these games can often be tough to get into, due to their dense plots and obtuse battle mechanics. That’s what... Continue Reading →
