I can't think of a post name, so uhh....

Yes, I know. It's been more than a month since my last post but whatever. I blog for my own self-satisfaction. Deal with it.


Even though there's absolutely no benefit to running this silly little blog in the first place, I'm still going to write something. Actually, I have no idea what to talk about since I'm unprepared for this post. I'll just wing it like I always do.

Do you even pose?
In the end, I'll resort to talking about anime and video games. GJ-bu has certainly surprised me, quickly becoming one of my favorites this season. I look forward to it every week! Funny and quirky, aware of what it is and becoming pure fun because of it.


There's also this new thing called hair brushing. Watch as the MC performs it on Megumi.


Don't forget the maid, Mori-san!


Apparently, the MC is quite skilled at it.


Seems like being in the Good Job Club is very interesting.


Don't even think I'm done talking about anime yet! The other show I look forward to every week is Minami-ke Tadaima. There's kind of a split on whether Seasons 2 and 3 were bad. I personally liked them a lot. Ignored Millhouse. But this new season is shaping up to be better than the first. How is that even possible? Well it is! It seems to focus a bit more on the side characters at times but that's not a bad thing at all.


Hosaka will never invite you to a barbecue. ;_;

「気持ち悪い。」
Hair down Kana is the best.


Sensei and Ninomya-kun are back as well.

Just as keikaku.
Moving on to video games. I finally got Skyrim around New Year's holiday. Right away, I had to mod it to hell and back since the game is kinda crap without them. So many bugs and glitches. I shouldn't have to do this in the first place. The game itself was cool, I guess. I really enjoyed the environments and some of the game mechanics. The quests were all fucking boring. Action packed would really describe this game well. Like they were trying to appeal to a certain mainstream audience so they chucked in action and "epicness" everywhere. Felt like non-combat stealth players were given the middle finger. The thieves guild was okay but by that point I didn't really care. Skyrim's main draw for me was walking around and soaking in the atmosphere. Overall, It's an alright game, I guess.  I gave it a good 80~ hours of gameplay without playing any of the expansions.

For some reason I had the urge to play Dark Souls again so I popped it back in. I stopped playing because I got stuck at a boss but I'm gonna give it another shot. I'll try my best to actually beat the damn game this time. Speaking of which, I didn't even beat a single game last year. That kinda bothers me. Oh well, can't be helped.


Time to take it easy.

Still busy but here's a post!

I really would like to post more often but I just can't find the time to do so. I'd rather do other things instead, you know? It's something I do in my "spare time within my spare time". So where to begin... Oh, I know. I'll start by posting an image.


It's been raining recently and I like it. Although, I haven't felt that warm and fuzzy feeling you get from this time of year. Real life sucks. I have no idea how to get into the mood of a pleasantly dissonant overcast. Suggestions from people wouldn't work too well either since everybody has different tastes. Rewatching some anime sounds really nice right about now but I have a lot shows that I already started so I don't want to add any more. I guess it can't be helped.


Time to talk about video games. yay I started up Fate/Extra again just to see if I could finish it. Well, needless to say that I didn't get too far. The combat is still as crappy as ever. It doesn't have a fun factor that a good RPG battle system should have. The only draw the game has left is the story but even that is pretty mediocre. I really want to finish this game, though. It's one of those games that you know you can beat if you just stick with it to the end but I just can't do it.


I don't know if you guys have been keeping up with Psycho-Pass but this show keeps on getting better. Generally, Urobuchi doesn't really impress me on his own merits. It takes a good staff of people in order to bring out his talents. I don't mind that it's a GiTS clone in some ways since anime doesn't get a lot of cyberpunk these days.

I've recently listened to the new EP by Toe called "The Future Is Now". It left me wanting a new album by them. Just four new songs wasn't enough. Toe is one of those bands that's actually been getting better as time goes on. I remember Nevah talking about this in an old post he did. A lot of musicians tend to get worse as time goes on but there's still few that actually get better over time. The majority still get worse, though. This poses the question, "maybe you should quit after one album?" People will ignore this and would rather make mediocrity than work a day job.

Hope you're doing well and have a nice day.
