the climax of the first episode of "May I Ask for One Final Thing?" is i think the most glorious thing i've ever seen in my entire fucking life, oh my god i'm actually crying.

hot take: in no world do i ever believe panty would agree to go out with brief. should not have happened. (rest of the season was fun tho.)

NEW VIDEO! After over 4 years (or 84? 3000?), I've finally watched another season of Precure and made a video about it. I hope the wait was at least somewhat worth it, and if you can, please do all the YouTube engagement stuff. youtu.be/S1HWlIoRUNs

i can't believe i finished work on the precure video just in time to dive right into production on the fall anime video. no rest for the weary! (but i will rest for hades.)

test upload for the tropical rouge video returned one thing i've gotta cut up some more. got a few other changes i want to make anyway, so i'm gonna go do those now. with any luck, it'll be live on friday.

These scripts are GREAT and these calls are EASY and ESSENTIAL. Call your senators and reps today and tell them to vote against ANY bill that contains cuts to trans health care. #DidThisToday

scrubbing thru footage for the tropical rouge vid and just found a laura still that would make a fantastic reaction image.

silksong: OH. MY. GOD. THAT HIGH HALLS GAUNTLET WAS SOOO MUUUCH T_T

please forgive me this one indulgence.

you probably don't need me to tell you shaun does great work, but let me tell you my jaw DROPPED to the floor and stayed there during the wax section.

ok this took WAY longer than anticipated, but i finally finished drafting the tropical rouge video. gonna hopefully spend a lot of time tomorrow editing this down a little and recording the voice over, so i can start assembling the video thurs. no way it's done before end of month. expect early oct.

a few days ago, for some reason, with no discernible cause that i can find, the op for seirei no moribito popped into my head, and now it will not fucking leave. someone please help, hyde's earnest belting of at best questionable english lyrics is driving me insane.

when it started airing, i said that if the watanare anime got to vol 4 of the original light novel it was going to be peak. guess what bitches.

someone explain this to me b/c i can't make sense of it. just two days ago, a kickstarter launched for "the dragon king," apparently a sequel series to the netflix show "the dragon prince." on the face of it it's like "oh, okay, i can help fund the sequel to a show i like. neat." except. it's not??

trails in the sky remake on the 19th. hades 2 on the 25th. still nowhere near done with skong. guys i think i'm cooked.

this season of strange new worlds really made me miss discovery.

i've written just over 2k words of this tropical rouge script so far and ~1900 of them are about asuka.

it's always monday somewhere so don't worry

very late but i finally finished gquuuuuux. and like...so it started strong, right? i remember really liking machu and nyaan at the outset, both fiercely independent just plain cool. but by the end both their personalities devolved into just "shuu-chan!" which was like. really boring?? am i crazy???

PSA

still in act 1 of silksong but man, speedruns of this game are gonna go *crazy*

"deliberately jumped knowing where it would take me" but yeah sure.

hornet fighting lace in silksong:

SKONG SKONG SKONG

Happy Labor Day! Today we're bringing you The First Union, as told by HBomberguy (@hbomberguy.bsky.social) and illustrated by Skutch (@skutchdraws.bsky.social) It's the dawn of the industrial revolution, and of the way many of us work... Have you ever heard of the term "Luddite" from an elder?

🐹NEW VIDEO!!🐹 Are you ready learn about Philosophy with Hamtaro and his hit video game Hamtaro Ham-Ham Heartbreak? #youtube #hamtaro #videoessay

you're a liar, cheat, a devil—

i don't know if this new feature works on videos published just before the update, but if so, maybe that's something we can try for the GWG vid?

Today marks the 40th anniversary of the 7th episode of Dirty Pair, "愛こそすべて命賭けます逃避行!!" or "Love Is Everything, Betting Their Lives on Elopement", one of the most overtly trans-positive episodes of anime of its era. This was the future they predicted for us in 1985. We can still get there.

so it begins.

NEW VIDEO! A deep dive into a loose trilogy of anime from the aughts all about GIRLS WITH GUNS. Give it a watch and a share, if you please—this one's quite beefy! youtu.be/soJNAjgCDqk

was randomly looking at the spines of the books on my shelf and just had a moment of "wait a fucking second" (see alt text)

skong

test upload only returned one copyright snag. i already know some other changes i want to make, so that's fine; with any luck, unless something goes terribly wrong, you're gonna have a big chonky new vid on friday. hold onto your butts.

new panty and stocking having a non-zero number of viewers going "this better not awaken anything in me." youtu.be/pYDCaP03mmY?...

"Stickles is 'a mischievous, unpredictable creature who brings levity and chaos to the Hogwarts grounds while reminding students there are forms of self-expression so indulgent and dangerous, they make Avada Kedavra look like a nursery rhyme.' Also, he wears a jingly hat."

streak of bangers.

one can only imagine that whenever someone writes "doctor who" in the title of their article they know exactly what they're doing. fishing for those "i'm sorry, the doctor did WHAT" clicks.

absolutely the fuck not.

the intro to the new vid features an eight-frame visual gag that's probably gonna get me put on a watchlist, so that's something to look forward to.

I started playing base Elden Ring for the first time just before Nightreign came out and I only just now beat Malenia if that tells you anything.

the voice over recording session for the next video took uhhhh a while.

locked the script for the next video. did heavy rearranging and some rewriting of the middle section. tightened up some wording throughout. then just went and added a new bit, such that it's now little bit longer than before. oh well. i do this to myself. can't wait to kill my voice tomorrow.
