Hey y’all, how’s it going? It’s been a while. I want to get back into blogging again. I may not post all that frequently, but I still have a lot of opinions on all the good anime/JRPGs. I also want to write about some of my other interests, such as music and literature, so stay... Continue Reading →
Genshin Impact: The Good, The Bad, And The Gacha
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 →
Mari’s 30+2.0 birthday special: I’m doing a Let’s Play channel now
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 →
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 – The Impossible Masterpiece
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 →
Bye for now…
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 →
Top 5 (Living) Anime Moms
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 →
Demon Slayer Mugen Train: All Aboard The Hype Train
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 →
Fire Emblem: The Blazing Sword – My Teenage Nostalgia Revisited
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 →
The Promised Neverland Season 2: A Long And Frustrating Autopsy
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 →
Mega Man X Will Always Be My Jam
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 →
