Finished part two of The Big Nowhere. The ending made me so mad I threw my book on the table, smacked it, then picked it up and threw it. Really fucking good book. Ellroy is one crazy, genius son of a bitch. Wow.

"You're the detective, find me." I daresay I've never heard something so romantic.

Passed a sign on the road that read "Drive Carefully Autistic Child," and I know how they meant it, but I find it way funnier to read it the other way

Thanks for the recommendation, YouTube

Reading Calvino's Cosmicomics, really enjoying them. Favorite aspect of them so far is how he entwines high astronomical fantasy with simple human romance. It feels very "love is the center of the human experience" in a very Italian way.

Hirasawa reference in Berserk?

Perhaps there is truth in sandmadness...

Well, this is it. Today ends my work on The Hirasawa History. It's been quite a fun past six weeks. This final part is less informational than that which has come before, and is instead more reflective and personal. It also has a bunch of supplementary info at the end. Enjoy! wp.me/p8qXoA-qS

in U.S. the player controls a beautiful, elegiac witch named Eri Runescape and in the Glorbian series they pilot the SA-199X "Shining Sword" model space fighter and its variants

Well, today I finished the sixth and final core Dragonlance book. I read the whole first trilogy between spring and summer of '22, then the second trilogy much more sporadically. It was interesting, even if I didn't love it, I'm glad I persisted and finished it.

We're nearing the end! Today's post chronicles essentially the past fifteen years of Hirasawa's career, starting with his rebrand in 2010, all the way to his newest album. Next Sunday's post will be the last. If you've been following along, thank you so much! wp.me/p8qXoA-pJ

We're officially in the 21st century now! This was a fun part to write, because honestly, I do really think the 2000s is his most consistent decade. When I think of Hirasawa at his most platonically ideal, I think of him as he was here. wp.me/p8qXoA-oK

Reddit hate on the CSM ending is the cringiest shit man

Anyway the timing of CSM wrapping up right as I'm starting to really get into Kingdom is great. Nice to only have to keep track of one ongoing manga. Though with CSM I kinda just let the chapters pile up and then binge read a bunch of them, whereas with Kingdom I want to stay on top of the volumes.

My contribution to the CSM ending discourse is this. The longtime "curse" of CSM has been people's tendency to ignore one specific fact: that even though CSM is Fujimoto's most mainstream and accessible manga, it is still, at its very deepest core, a Fujimoto manga.

LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOOOO

Everytime I look at my Hirasawa rankings and wonder if I'm overrating Beacon by giving it a 9/10, I give it another quick listen-through and am reminded just how unique and varied it is. Very much one of his stranger albums, especially for so late in his career.

Here it is, everyone. The big one. I put a lot of love into this part, since it's arguably the climax of Hirasawa's career. I hope my love for this music properly comes through, and I hope you'll enjoy reading. wp.me/p8qXoA-nj
