guy who says "umapyoi" when he moves his horse in chess

I'm never more turned off from checking out a show than when someone tries to sell it to me using the phrase "hype moments and aura"

For such a relatively new anime studio, Cygames Pictures really is doing some damn good work

I think part of what stopped me from keeping up with fighting games is the sheer size of the rosters now, I just don’t have it in me to learn over 30 different matchups. 3rd Strike has 19 and that’s honestly more than enough, especially since there’s a few you’ll basically never see played anyway.

Been listening to Giant Bomb since around 2012. That’s like a third of my whole life. 🪦💣

Sound Euphonium has the same love for drawing detailed musical instruments that 80s OVAs had for cars and guns

I constantly forget that Belladonna of Sadness isn’t French or Italian or something like that.

happy 50th birthday to GamemasterAnthony, I hope he was able to invite everyone again

Me seeing literally any silhouette in anime: “Getting a lot of Bad Apple vibes from this…”

Is the rest of Bang Dream as good as MyGO and Ave Mujica? Do I have to become Bang-pilled?

Ave Mujica as a band is the kind of cringe that I want hooked directly into my veins

Still watching Initial D and I think Iketani has the biggest fumble in all of media. Absolute generational fumble The man's a pro

Metal Gear Solid 2 gets more relevant every single day

Dash Rendar-ing is a poor imitation of Blast Processing

Update: finished the first season and Initial D absolutely slaps

Saw this in a hotel bathroom and it is *insane* to me the idea of paying £24 to see a tribute act to a stand-up comedian.

Wouldn’t thermal expansion mean that using the coolant on Sandalphon in Magma Diver make his body more dense and therefore harder to stab? I’m bad at physics but that’s how it sounds like it should work to me.

I'm a tad grateful that not a lot from the upcoming anime season seems interesting to me, gives me more time to catch up with older shows. I went beyond drifting and was straight in reverse by watching MF Ghost before Initial D, so maybe I'll finally check that out!

Absolute lads

This is what gaming chairs should look like

That’ll solve it

Is there anything more iconic in gaming than the buttons "ecks" "zero" "box" and "mountain"?

The idea that every individual piece of media needs a “fandom” and “community” basically ruined ever wanting to talk about stuff online. It’s fine to think two or more things are good without having to pick one to be your identity.

I can’t quite put my finger on why, but something about the 2025 Snow Miku #Nendoroid doesn’t feel like “Miku” to me?

I wonder how Beethoven feels about Für Elise being most commonly heard in the form of garbage sounding doorbells

Your muscles are what move, your skeleton is just along for the ride

Me: why is my back always so sore? My posture:

There will never come a time when stuff from the 80s isn't "around 20 years old" to me

Gaming peaked with OutRun 2.

New Castlevania character idea: Alugard. He's just Alucard but has a cool car.

Komm, Süssy Baka

I find myself muting way more accounts on Bluesky than Twitter. Not because they’re offensive or anything, but the Discover feed seems to glom on to certain accounts that just aren’t for me and show them repeatedly.

Maybe I’m just not smart enough to get the appeal, but I’ve never read a piece of poetry that was half as evocative as a B- shitpost.

Professional esports used to have a 4Kids-ass theme song and frankly things were better that way youtu.be/A4PKMwNRtb0

There are two types of people in the world. Those who hear the word "Butterfly" and think of Crazy Town, and those who think of Smile .dk

I enjoy visual novels from the handful I’ve played but daaammmmnnn some of the popular ones are long. I need to find something that’s under 8-10 hours for a change.

Mario Party Party is an all-time banger of a series 💣
