Update(May 2025): A lot of personal reflections

So yea… this is gonna be a very personal update. I’m doing this for May rather than June because I might be going away for a bit, not sure on that honestly. Looking back on 2025 so far If you saw my social media posts at the end of 2024, I did say I wanted to keep downhill momentum with all the things I was doing, and well, that’s kept going honestly! I’ve had decent year creating things, with…

Genshin Impact Rambles: The Xilonen Experence

More Genshin Impact! This time I'm writing about Xilonen, and she's AWESOME!

Hot fictional women keep adding to my workload, huh? Usually, after the region has come out, we stop writing about Genshin for a bit, but she caught my eye because she was, really, REALLY hot to me. I don’t have a problem, I swear. Still, though, I do end up loving the characters I choose to go for, so how does the story of this woman add to the experience of Genshin Impact? Let’s find…

Update(Dec 2024): Gameworks, Genshin and maybe YouTube

Hello! I’m writing an update again. Prepare for more screencaps that make on sense and more reflections as I wonder where this blog and my work in general will take me in 2025. Immediate Plans So I just finished my work for 2024 with a round-up talking about Zenless Zone Zero. 2025 is already kinda stacked, because Genshin is having it’s last update for Natlan’s main story on January 1st,so I…

SPYXFAMILY Part 1: Review

I wrote about SPYXFAMILY, and it actually might be my favourite Shonen Jump story ever.

So! I finished this. Family is a precious thing that a lot of us have. Love is a thing that runs through most of those families. But for those who haven’t been cared for and had to push their emotions down, those who are looking for love from anyone for the 1st time, and those who feel they are unloveable because of their past and present actions, family can be hard. So what happens when you put…

Genshin Impact Rambles: Natlan Archon Quests Pt 1.

It's time for Tournament arcs, fated battles, and inherited destiny. Let's look at the 1st part of Genshin's Natlan Arc!

4 whole years, and we are still going on with this. Yet this feels like the most interesting update Genshin is getting in recent memory for reasons that I’ll get into later. Genshin has been going on strong for 4 years, and it doesn’t seem like it somehow doesn’t seem like it’s stopping anytime soon, despite this arc basically being the beginning of the end for Genshin. But what challenges does…

Rambling about Classic Sport Racing

So, uh… I don’t know how this happened. Like with the last game we looked at, Virtua Unlimited Project, I tried this out at a Steam Next Fest all the way back in October 2022. Again I just keep these games on my wishlist usually, but then, I got another random DM after liking one of their posts, and I got offered a key to try the game out! Me, who isn’t really lucky when it comes to these things.…

Rinkai: Review

Hello again! Rinkai was something I knew nothing about before writing about the 1st impressions. I did enjoy that 1st episode, but from there, how did things go? Can Ito survive in this world of professional cycling? Let’s find out. So the story is once, again very simple when it comes down to it, and things are more on the characters. After the 1st episode, Ito consults her grandma about…

HighSpeed Etoile: Review

HighSpeed Etoile just finished airing, so I decided to write about it, and it was a fun watch!

This just finished up, so it’s time to write about it! In the 1st episode, we got introduced to a lot of things about the series, but now the championship starts. So, how does this year’s NEX-Race series play out? Can Rin find success in this series? How will the two rookies do? Can Alice overhaul Lorenzo to win the big prize? Let’s find out. So to start off, the story is actually surprisingly…

RINKAI! : First Impression

Even more racing anime, but this time we switch out cars for track bikes in Rinkai!!!

So, spring anime and the Cycling Spring Classics have sprung. And in that spirit, we are going to be looking at a cycling anime! I don’t know much about this, but when I saw it was gonna get an airing slot alongside HighSpeed Etolle in what is already a very stacked Spring Season of anime, I decided, to give this a look, cause I like both anime and cycling. I don’t know much about this, so let’s…

HIGHSPEED Étoile: First Impressions

It's time to go racing once again with Highspeed Etoile!!

So, I probably should have written about this beforehand but, eh, it can be hard to get English-subbed trailers for anime sometimes. I’ve been following this since it was announced, and every trailer I’ve seen has looked pretty good honestly, With this being an anime that has the backing of Super Formula, Japan’s premiere racing series, and also racing on real tracks that are used in F1 such as…
