Made in Abyss is great if you like extensive worldbuilding, adventure, trauma, fantasy, horror, mystery, and more horror.
If HP Lovecraft and Jules Verne had a baby and that baby could only draw cute characters, then you'd get Made in Abyss. To summarize, a 12-year-old girl named Riko wants to meet her long-lost mother who resides at the bottom of the Abyss, a giant chasm in the earth. Being a squishy little human, Riko is subject to lots of injuries and physical trauma cuz "reality ensues." No matter how plucky and optimistic a child is, throwing them into a pit full of wild animals is not a good idea. The Abyss itself defies space, physics, and time. Imagine the Burj Khalifa times 3 sunk into the earth. Now imagine if that superstructure was split into 7 stories or "layers" and each layer has its own ecosystem and weather patterns. Now imagine if that superstructure was a giant trap with downward-facing teeth so the further you went in, the more painful it becomes to get out. Now imagine if that giant trap was sentient on some level and gives you an irresistible urge to literally get to the bottom of it not caring if you can never return to the surface.

Perhaps one of the most-absurd stories ever on the programme
was the time the Inspector ended up on a game-show programme.

I made this bc I feel like I actually love horror more than most people it’s just that most horror movies think they need to kill characters off or it’s not scary, which ironically actually usually means the movie is way less scary
#personal#horror#horror media#Finally caved in and busted out the Mr. Nightmare again can anyone tell#Tbc I’m not against characters dying#Or gore#But I only like it when it means something and is used sparingly#I hate when its obvious that something extreme like death or gore was just thrown in to make you feel upset/grossed out#A character dying shouldn’t just be to make the already scary thing scary#That’s so low effort#Like the only time that should be a thing that’s done imo is if the characters and audience#Don’t think the thing is scary or don’t think it can kill#Like genre subversion. That’s the only time that works#Otherwise it’s like ok well you’re clearly insecure about the scariness of your monster

Something about the specific ambience of certain psx era games, the stilted quality of models and how they are animated, but especially the sheer sense of darkness, the insufficiency of lighting sources to properly convey the warmth of a flame painting color across a pitch black canvas. And then you toss in a synthy, industrial score, which creeps in your ears and sounds a thousand times louder if such a game lacks any form of voiceover, downright foreboding as it underscores this vacuum where words are conveyed by text if at all. But there's this underlying sense of disconnection, like these awkward 3D puppets exist independently of the signs and signifiers intended to lend them narrative meaning. It's this deep sense of emptiness, the oppressive loneliness born within the trappings of technical limitations and experimentation. It's fascinatingly discomforting. Disorientingly, hauntingly irresistible
#busting it down textual style#I watched a video about Racing Lagoon recently and I was awestruck by its aesthetic#which feels surreal awkward and abstract in a way that comes across as intentional#I also think a lot about the likes of Galerians Baroque and other lesser known games with a cyberpunk bent from that era#along with experimental violent OVAs within the same genre that came out around the same period#when I think about the 90's especially nearing the turn of the millennium I think of a nightly chill rather than sunny warmth#first person point and clicks in the tradition of Myst are similar and yet diametrically opposite in my perception#the hauntingly attractive emptiness is still there but while still not warm it's still not quite cold. Tepid in a melancholy sort of way

arthur returns fics are so insane bc the author has to decide whether arthur comes back for
a) merlin (safe answer)
b) to Fix Climate Change (baffling)
c) WWIII is on the horizon (?! what is he supposed to do?!)
d) to become the prime minister?!?
e) hes a communist now (always as a joke)
and im just baffled that i hvent seen anyone in my nine years straight up go divine right of kings with it. im not saying they should by any means im just saying the fanbase is tactless and like Someone Has To Have by Now. like maybe im self filtering but i refuse to believe as obtuse a fanbase hasnt done something that tasteless yknow
#the like. pardon my french. cringe ive read in my day#arthur coming to fix climate change is so funny to me. like whats he gonna do ?!#i dont read this genre anymore for a reason it has to be canon era or bust now

doug eiffel is relatively offline, his choice of... constant, unyielding background noise so he never has to be left alone in the company of his own thoughts... is the radio and/or tv, but he is also always watching youtube videos like "Can We Drive 1,200 MILES in an ABANDONED Van With NO TITLE? - First Start in 17 Years" and "Monster Jam - INSANE AIR Compilation." zero doubt.
#wolf 359#w359#doug eiffel#will never let anyone forget he's a monster truck guy. i love it.#the other day i was trying to think of like. eiffel is definitely a youtube guy if he's any kind of social media guy.#but i was blanking on specific channels. anyway. no. this is the answer. he's watching like junkyard digs and high octane films#and monster truck compilations.#i see clearly now.#eiffel sees something like 'will it run?' or 'will it work?' in the title and clicks immediately that's his genre.#the rest of his youtube search history is various clips from movies and tv shows that he pulls up to show people on his busted phone#whenever someone makes the mistake of telling him they don't understand a reference he thinks is iconic. which is a lot of them.#he's so annoying i want him so bad. sorry#well anyway. that first one's a great video.

I like that the programme has never been pigeonholed as a police procedural.
That gives the Inspector and his/her Associate(s) a wider array of solving whatever mystery they stumble upon.

shido-san has sung a lot in those musicals about history i believe that u can find on yt so that’s the closest thing we have of mine karaoke (unless u include those ai videos too)
no im aware of the tokugawa song he sang back then i cherish it a lot actually
i absolutely do not include the ai videos though whenever i see ai videos on my recommended i recoil and feel my skin shrink stop that
#snap chats#listen if you want a chara to sing a song you got two options#1.) bust out your wallet 2.) pick existing audio apart piece by piece like god intended#wait i was just reminded of my fave genre of rgg vids of just. this one guy doing daigo videos#like that one where daigo just Lets Kiryu Have It but. For Real in y4#that shit goofy as hell and so real ...#and now im reminded of my other fave rgg video of just. daigo with a gun shooting everyone after mine dies#can i stay on topic. bye
