I forgot where i was going with these when i started throwing this draft together... It's weird to me that the series originally had this really specific and kind of unique mediterranean setting

the FIMBA's region is clearly Italian, playing off the coliseum's central role in the game

IMa's little island feels very reminiscent of the santorini caldera in the greek isles, in spite of its location relative to FIMBAs italian peninsula

And the AGIMA region being a more generic island, but one where they rather conspicuously use Greek text in a way the other two regions didn't (if you look closely at the letterhead on the mail you can see that AGIMA is actually spelled with a Gamma(Γ) and not a G: ΑΓΙΜΑ)

But then MR3's shift backwards in the timeline to the setting's pangean continent breaks away from any recognizable geography, even just as a loose inspiration. And EVO's jump to just a completely different continent with, like, vaguely African(?) geography, but also a Japanese island at the end??, and then The Moon... all just kinda threw that uniqueness out the window.

If anything it could have been really cool to expand the Monster Rancher universe along the Silk Road; thru Turkey and the north of Africa, and into Arabia and Persia. In a way, EVO starting off at what ought to have been a loose equivalent of north Africa right on the costs of the mediterranean could have been a really neat way to still retain that connection to the old games, but then they kind of don't lean into that at all somehow? If anything EVO's region feels really weak in terms of theming, and the few traces of a kind of attempted "ethic" flare are honestly just kind of offensive.

I think the only thing I really managed to take inventory of in all this was that they stuck to the pretty standard JRPG routine of cramming way too many too diverse biomes into a single region... there's always

a sandy desert(with pyramids)

a kind of tropical beach

a jungle or rain forest(often with south american vibes??)

a snowy mountain range

but also a weird variety of temperate regions; sometimes a forest, sometimes hills, or plains/flatlands, oddly they only very late in the series started adding caves into the explorable dungeon lineup, even though those feel pretty basic. The ever present theme of ruins and exploration do go from being subsets of other biomes into being sort of their own environments. The initially very light steam punk elements --only really present in the freezing/combining labs-- do eventually get ramped up to full on factory towns and factory dungeons.

I think I had been intending to gather all these maps together first, and then try to distill some kind of formula from them to outline some sense of what a typical Monster Rancher region looks like, and what the parameters of making a fan region or Monster Rancher-like would really entail, but I don't know that I really got that information out of things in the end...

So i guess just have these this random collection of thoughts

So the neighboring continent also has a monster training league except theirs is named "FIMBA"...? If it's an acronym they've opted not to explain it to me.

Anyway Smooty qualified to compete as a representative for IMa so obviously we won ¬‿¬

Hewitt's Daily Workout Routine. This workout routine was created solely by Hewitt James in response to the Covid-19 quarantine in the City of Philadelphia.  The routine was accomplished with the Vincentian Soca Song, “Mind Your Funky Business”. The song was sung by the Vincentian Soca Artiste, Fimba, who has captured the Groovy Soca Monarch Title with this song in St. Vincent and the Grenadines during the Carnival Celebration of 2018. Consequently, Fimba has risen to popularity with this song. “ Mind Your Funky Business “ is popular with the young people in the Caribbean and the regions beyond.
