Netflix has this very interesting and innovative new strategy of cancelling all of it's good adult shows and renewing big mouth for another season afterwards.

I'm really happy that Vivian is explicitly trans in the remake. And even more-so that a mega franchise like Mario has an explicitly trans character now (Birdo notwithstanding).

And obviously the type of degens you would expect to get mad got mad. And you can tell these "people" are very dedicated to the hating trans people bit because for the first time in the 20 years that this very well known ttyd topic has been going on, i have actually seen people unironically call Vivian a 'he' or a 'femboy'.

Hyperfixations are so fascinating cause its a roll of the dice whether it will be something really useful and beneficial like math or science, or its over an obscure 90's OVA or vinny vinesauce.

Xavier renegade angel is one of the few "random = funny" shows that actually works.

I know this is kind of a nothing observation but, I think it's interesting that despite the fact that both Jr and nabbit have the same bandana, Jr's seems scribbled on while nabbit's is a lot cleaner yet still clearly drawn on.

I always thought that nabbit stole at some point Jr's bandana but now I think he actually just drew it himself for some reason.

nothing more heartbreaking than seeing someone on the enemy team in splatoon 3 just sorta... give up.

The new M&L has opened my eyes to the idea that if we ever get a legitimate mario x sonic crossover game it should be in the M&L style. With Mario, Luigi, Sonic and Tails.

Billy bat to this day is the most insane manga I've ever read and I want to pick apart naoki urasawa's mind to see what exactly he was thinking when he made it.

Nick & lever is probably my favorite gag manga rn. Just two wholesome idiots doing random stuff. It's quite literally "dudes rock" the manga.

The fact that the entire premise of "two hyper detailed american foreigners who work off cartoon logic living in Japan" has been able carry this manga for 90+ chapters is amazing.

But Goddamn was it done perfectly.

Watching vinny's space funeral stream from 2015, and I think I love the vibe of this game.

the music is amazing.

I'm not a big fan of the link x sidon ship purely because it incredibly weird considering link knew him since he was a toddler, and also that by the time of botw takes place sidon was a full grown man and link was still 17.

I really love when i find a new niche thing that I had no idea existed before to hyperfixate over.

Like you are telling me there's an obscure indie rpg that is disgustingly punishing and has actual consequences for the choices you make, that also has an incredibly dark tone with a really interesting story along with it that just sorta existed in a vacuum, and that now there's suddenly like 20 recently released indepth reviews by random small channels? While ALSO having a sequel that's heavily inspired by Majora's mask??

Really sad that PPPPPP got axed as it was one of the most unique wsj series. However with the "ending" being isolated to this one chapter it gives me hope that it switches to another magazine and just cuts this chapter out or retcons it.

The fact that there hasn't been a full anime adaptation of alita yet is so crazy to me. The series is relatively popular and is very influential so it's odd that it hasn't gotten one.

And like yeah there's the pretty good live action cg movie and the 2 1993 ova's, but I'm talking about an actual full anime that covers the full story.

It's especially sad that there hasn't been a full a full adaptation yet since the og series are really good and I can guarantee it would do really good nowadays and would be pretty popular, especially if they adapt last order.

Though tbh I just want to see sechs animated and that can't happen until the og series is adapted in full 🥲.

And like there are so many good studios that could handle it!!! Studio orange, madhouse, bones or A-1 are def the first to come to mind.

currently reading trough a manga called "nicola traveling across the demon's world" and it has to be the most charming fantasy manga I've read since soara.

I appreciate Nintendo realizing that the gorons are the perfect creatures by having them be one of the most visually consistent races in Zelda second only to the hylians.
