It's absolutely crazy Precure is doing both a detective story and a time travel story. It's like they purposely chose the most complex genres writing-wise.

It's kind of fucked that proper cooking probably takes more energy than you get back from eating a specifically tasty meal

i wanna buy the precure toys but i can't do it until i know star detective isn't gonna disappoint me

When the niece went home, she apparently told people at school her favourite thing about her trip here was playing video games. I feel like I've helped expose her to something she wouldn't normally get a chance to see because it's not 'girly'. I feel proud.

idk why the new Oshi no Ko season is on Crunchyroll now, I almost wish they didn't because Crunchyroll sucks, but man it's still some good anime

Check out my Nintendo Switch 2025 Year in Review! See yours at year-in-review.nintendo.com

Between Digimon Beatbreak and now Precure, Toei really is pushing a real anti-AI/technology reliance message this year. It's like someone threatened to replace them all with AI and they're still pissed off about it.

God damn it other people are making the Umineko jokes too I will not survive Precure this year

What was cool about the dragon ball fandom is you had such a variety of people. It was like "hey, this person's an artist!" Or "this person owns a website!" Or "this person used to be on a big gaming channel!"

Huge day for scalpers

Niece and nephew update: If you want a safe, straightforward video game for kids who don't know much about video games - Suika Game actually worked pretty well.

Voice acting is so interesting because really it seems like playing a cutesy mascot for children would actually be more difficult than voicing an action hero. But we don't give the former nearly enough praise.

Like DBZ is totally better in Japanese but also there are a lot of characters that could have had a lot of different voices, really.

I was thinking yesterday and actually what DBZ performances do you find actually standout? Besides Nozawa

I love reading

what the fuck do you mean the umineko anime was directed by chiaki kon why is my life like this

I want more Detective Precure story and merchandise info yesterday

i'm not getting a pet, i'm just looking at animal shelter listings because i'm curious but they're using chatgpt to write their animal descriptions i hate this reality

I am so glad I was not born in the 2020s because everyone would call me 'Gabby's Dollhouse'. And then spell my name wrong as a result.

Niece and nephew have been here for a few hours and I already don't know how you keep up motivation to look after them forever. Maybe it's just cause I'm off the ADHD meds

"I'm so sorry, Ancient Greek mythological figure, some tech company has decided to name their newest subscription service after you and now everybody thinks that's where you come from instead."

I still use TV Tropes when I'm researching something new because it's such a convenient, non-SEO way to learn stuff. Just "here's a list of all the main characters, their personalities and roles in the story, on one page. And all the plot spoilers are hidden."

I think I get why I hard-pivoted to magical girls this year. Stories about people fighting against abstract concepts like the darkness inside human hearts, even if they can't fully comprehend it? Mood.

Did Spilled Ink use AI for coming up with descriptions for their newest drawing challenge video? That would be so disappointing, since it's a channel all about real art.

My brother-in-law once told me he uses ChatGPT to come up with bedtime stories for his kids. They grew up on YouTube Kids and iPads. These kids are going to be AI-generated...

Digimon Beatbreak feels like they told Toei "we have no restrictions, just do whatever the hell you want". I have no idea who this is for and if it'll get an audience, but I really respect it.

It's cute and soft and sits well and they remembered not to give it paw pads like Komugi and Yuki. I have no complaints.

you ever feel like you want to help your friend so badly you spontaneously transform into a magical girl/boy/whatever a precure is supposed to be

I should keep up a counter every time Detective Precure breaks one of Knox's Laws. For fun

I feel like I've been second-handedly exposed to so much sexualised gacha bullshit that Uma Musume feels quite tame, actually.

Digimon Beatbreak hits a lot harder now we're in a real technological dystopia

I really want to beat Umineko not necessarily because I want to finish the story, but because I want to see what other people thought about it without worrying about spoilers.

I probably should do a reaction to that sailor moon abridged TFS did. If I don't upload it, it's because I didn't think my reaction was interesting.

Is RFK Jr using the goddamn Devil's Proof? Who do you think you are, Ushiromiya Battler?

after months of research i've compiled the definitive timeline of the magical girl genre. be sure to show all your friends who like magical girls

I'm sure gamers are going to be totally Normal about this...

A work webinar said that interrupting people and finishing their sentences is a sign of ADHD and god I feel so exposed

man, why is it 3800 yen in shipping? None of the other stuff I've gotten on Amazon have been that much for a single item. Anyone know anywhere else you can get Wave 3 of Petit Cure? Amiami doesn't have it.

It's funny. When I tried the Kirby Air Riders server test, it made me think "this is fun, but I don't know how long I'd play this for". But then I remembered Sakurai games actually attract me for the single-player content and the demo was missing most of that.

Oh, okay, so there *is* a CG for that scene at the end of Episode 5. They just don't have it within the game itself because reasons? It would have made the moment so much cooler, though. #umineko

I'm actually having the time of my life being back in a Precure Phase. I don't care about getting respect from a fandom, I know enough to just buy something if I want to know it myself, and the doujin scene is cute af, even if some artists do NSFW on the side.

In the meantime, you guys can watch Precure with me. There are 22 seasons and you can start with almost any one, it'll be fine.

I wonder if Toei Animation thinks the international audience only wants more Dragon Ball Super Broly when domestically they just want to make more Futari wa Precure Episode 8s.

Dealing with people at work is like, there really are people out there who can't write? People who don't care about critical thinking? People who don't put effort in their work as long as it gets done? I can't understand it.

Last night's dream story pitch was a Gamer Precure where the lead is themed after rock-paper-scissors and actually I think that could work, subconscious

When I see someone walking their dog, I think I can't help myself from subconsciously looking like I want to pet the dog. The problem is if the dog is smart, it notices that and starts going "ooh, please do! I want to be pet!". And then I basically have no choice.

Work is doing a Melbourne Cup thing. I want to be armed with as many Horse Facts as possible. Uma Musume Facts count too.

ngl I really don't have the patience for "Well *I* knew Harry Potter was a Problematic Book and that's why I didn't like it, what's your excuse?" What's the point in trying to purity test your taste as a kid? And I'm saying this as someone who doesn't support the franchise.

Man, I'd love to do like a video with someone just rambling on about the Boy Precure Debate. I'm too used to just talking to myself
