Respect to Rick's @eurogamer.bsky.social review of ARC Raiders, which -- instead of reading like a product review -- does something an embarrassing amount of popular games criticism still fails to do in 2025: assesses the work in its context, and meaningfully places it in the context of its time

Look closely...Can you see him?! I bear the soul of V3! I am SO excited to join the English dub cast of Tojima Wants to Be a Kamen Rider as Ichiyo Shimamura. THANK YOU to Jason Lord for letting me Henshin with the team. New episode out NOW on @Crunchyroll!

Email chains gotta be the funniest way to have a group conversation. Like what do you mean anyone can be removed and they wouldn’t even know it?

“Recently Added.” “Leaving Soon.” Uhhhh

It’ll be a bit longer before US viewers get to see him, but since it’s aired elsewhere, I got permission to announce that I’m Million Mizu in Beyblade X! I LOVED Beyblade as a kid. I had like, every Driger lol. Shout outs to AJ Gam, @bangzoomstudios.com @tonyoliver.bsky.social & my agent Sam!! 🔥🐾

Nothing against baseball, but what the hell did I do to make my blue sky feed all people who are posting about baseball in such a way that they’re not mentioning baseball but still expecting their followers to understand it’s about baseball Baseball

Ween

Hey what the hell happened to Susanoomon’s head? That’s a completely different color scheme than it used to be

Wait wait wait wait wait I did the video game thing too

Crackle really overshadows Snap and Pop.

That’s me as the protag, Evan in Seven Knights Re:birth! Out now on mobile and PC, check it out! ⚔️

Digimon Time Stranger is great. Digimon Beatbreak is great. Cinderella Gray is great. Kagurabachi is great. Tojima Wants to be a Kamen Rider is great. I’m eating well. Highly recommend all of the above.

Daily reminder FUCK ICE

God Summer Hikaru Died is so good. I feel like the last show I worked on with that type of atmosphere was Darling in the Franxx and that was like 6 years ago. Why aren’t more anime that atmospheric and like… grounded, despite the more outlandish premises? I wanna work on more of those shows.

Me watching a professional goalie make an insane save on a penalty kick: Haha it’s just like Gagamaru!!!

I voice Prince Kurt in Furry Emb- I mean Fire Emblem Shadows! I’m still in disbelief I get to play a main character in a new Fire Emblem game & I hope I can continue telling his story for a long time to come 💜 Thank you for having me, Cup of Tea Productions and @nintendousa.bsky.social!

We’re thrilled to welcome Matt Shipman (SK8, Dr. Stone, Blue Lock, AOT) & Brittany Lauda (Genshin Impact, JoJo, Made in Abyss, DBZ) to #AnimeFargo2025! 🎉 Don’t miss panels, autographs & more! 💥

I know I’m preaching to the choir over here on Blue Sky but censorship of comedians is so clearly dictator shit. So are, y’know, all the OTHER horrible things happening lately, for the record. Why would anyone want to live in a country like this?

All right fine YouTube, I’ll watch “Super YoYo Opening” that was uploaded 17 years ago, get off my fucking back

Me trying to convince myself to relax on my off day: “Commit to the bit, commit to the bit, commit to the bit”

12:30am on a Monday night googling “list of Hamtaro characters”

God I love Dr. Stone

I know gacha and tcgs and loot boxes and all that shit is just gambling, but it feels especially weird seeing an ad for the pokemon TCG app where a streamer pulls a good card and freaks out. Literally just a reskinned casino ad

It’s so weird how the switch pro controller has A, B, X and Y buttons and then randomly 7 and 72 on the back.

And the next morning I get recommended a YouTube upload of this exact scene, in English, with my sigh. So here’s what I WOULD’VE uploaded:

"Age verification" laws are actually "upload your ID or get your face scanned to access every website, ending anonymity and associating your identity with everything you do online" laws and if more people understood that they would not be down for this authoritarian nonsense

Can’t even post a picture of a character sighing without turning on my computer, opening Firefox, turning off hardware acceleration, opening the episode, finding the moment, screen capping it and emailing it to myself these days.

weheheheh

Wait what do you mean Duel Masters started out as a manga where they played actual Magic the Gathering???

I instinctively didn’t like using the word “peak” because it felt like such an exaggeration in every context, until I remembered I say “the best” all the time and I don’t think I’ve ever actually meant it literally. Growth!

You ever been at 100%, brought 100%, and still feel like you under delivered?

*young me, developing a strong sense of justice* This is gonna be great, what an asset, this will never drive me insane

Steve Buscemi in Wednesday this season is giving Mr Boss

can't say too much about it but i know for SURE because i have been told so that i have lost work and opportunities for being hard line anti-AI. this is not a fight we as translators can fight from the inside! we NEED customers to raise the stink about this shit because we literally cannot. PLEASE.

When I was a kid I wanted Zach Efron to play Light in a live action Death Note because he looked the part, without even considering if he’d PLAY the part well. Feels silly, looking back. Now I realize that’s what casting directors in VO that basically only care about vocal print are doing lol

Too much "we're cooked" & not enough "we're not gonna take this shit"

I think some people have trouble seeing fascism as anything other than 1940s Germany. But I think 'people going to a comic convention needing to have a plan in case the government's goons show up to disappear people' is a pretty good demonstration of what it can look like in 2025.

Cons? Great. Traveling to and from cons? Not so great. 🫠

After a loooong travel day yesterday, I’ll be at ConnectiCon around 1-1:30 today! Forgive me for sleeping in a little, we only got to the hotel at like 2:30am lol. If you haven’t gotten a ticket yet, you can use code REKI10 for 10% off a day pass! See you guys soon!

Turns out 13 times 9 is 117.

Bye forever, WeTransfer.

I had to be there for the horse girl stream. I woke up early to be on the horse girl stream.

It’s so rude to ask an actor “have you worked on anything I’ve seen?” like you would never say that to a gynecologist

I am so tired of people who “stay out of politics” while the world actively burns around them. Everything that happened today affects someone you know. Get up, get motivated, get fucking involved. I don’t care if you don’t follow things. Fucking start or your part of the problem

Oh I guess I should post this here too, huh? #bluelock #umamusume
