Sadly ego always gets in the way no matter what causes they believe in.
Decided to make a pikupage. Mines is pretty basic so far but I definitely want to fiddle with the old Internet template. My ideas on what to do is a bit too ambitious for me right now. (ب_ب)

Happy New Year 🎊
2025 is over. I finished setting up and deleting wallets to fully focus on my 2026 goal. I accomplished a lot. I published two short stories, "Nerissa and the Uranet Slasher" and "Rendering Point," but I'm disappointed that I didn't finish a long story. Hopefully, I will release more stories in 2026 and finally grasp writing. One of my big goals is to try to shed the passive lifestyle next year and be fully proactive. I can't just let all the festivities pass me by!
Happy New Year 🎊
Got lucky and was able to get both Ye Shunguang and her W-Engine in 5 pulls. Definitely doesn't beat last year getting a double Miyabi pull but I'm glad to not have made a dent in the war chest. Gotta save as much as possible so I can get all three of the Angels of Delusions or realistically just Aria and her W-Engine. (´-﹏-`；)

For 2026, I hope the new web will fully embrace its newness. I understand that you need to keep some old web staples for those who are used to the old web. (Readable links and ICANN domains, for example.) However, part of creating a new web should be changing things fundamentally.
Why limit ourselves to the same conventions? Why not push further to tap into the limitless potential of this new frontier? We should change the way websites are read and move away from ICANN so people can express more freedom with their domains. Digital identification feels limited when you have to stick to the remains of the dot-com bubble.
Move past the Web 1.0, 2.0, and 3.0 designations to simply "Old Web" (1983–2025) and "New Web" (2026–present). It's difficult to fool myself into believing change is happening when all I see are cages of the past.

Shunrai Table Tennis is a good first chapter. All the Marty Supreme hype has me itching for more Table Tennis media so this was a perfect time to release a new manga series. The fact that it's informative too is a plus.
Mirai is a fun character. Seeing her get her spark back made me want to continue this series. I wonder if it's going into the realm of players having "Special Moves" and go more realistic. It's hints at that with Lightning Bolt but it didn't seem like she did a special swing at all.

Merry Christmas 🎄
Act one of ZEZTZ was pretty good. This show definitely attacks all my micro niches that I'm into. It does feel like we finally exited the prologue into the real meat of the show which judging the new visual seems to be C.O.D.E vs Knightmares. (The Lady = Agent 1?)
Im glad Nox is continuing be an antagonizing force. It would have been disappointing if he turned this quickly. I do hope the paranormal sector gets more involved with the dream plot instead of being stuck in the real world.
Excited to see what comes next!

Nice Haha, You Clowns got greenlit for two more seasons! It is deserved as it's a great show. With this and Common Side Effects getting a season 2, it feels like we're about to enter an Adult Swim Renaissance! Great shows that just keep the lineup fresh while showcasing the potential of adult animation.

Episode 1 of the Nukitashi dub is out! It definitely enhances the viewing experience for me watching in dub. I'm very inclined to laugh more towards the punchy dub scripts since I just get more of the humor than watching subtitles(PARKOUR!) Although I did roll my eyes hearing "instagoon" tho (눈‸눈). Some of the voices were iffy to me but it didn't bring down the overall quality. It's a great watch. Can't wait for episode 2 next week

I decided to check out Love Bullet to see what all the hype is about. It's a pretty novel idea. I definitely enjoy the fact that they use guns instead of bows and arrows. (Chiyo is my favorite Cupid of the bunch) It feels like the plot of a fun mobile game released during the 2010s. I wonder if it would be better if they restarted their lives instead of continuing as is. It would be awkward to be thrown back into life with the potential for everyone you know to be gone. I enjoyed it enough that I'm going to pick up the second volume.

About the latest ZEZTZ episode: a Kamen Rider designed to appeal to Western audiences features a GATE program subplot in the same year when people discovered Mall World. What are Yuya Takahashi and Toei cooking up?

Besides all the game awards discourse, seeing how Exposition 33 release a "Thank You" update after winning Game of the Year made me nostalgic for Game of the Year editions. Even though awards shows aren't that reliable, I always liked that companies took all the patches and updates since release and package them in a brand new "Game of the Year Edition" disc with a cheaper cost to ride the momentum of people saying "This can't be that good??!". It felt healthy for the industry especially since majority people only by 1-2 games a year. Maybe Geoff could push for a revival next year? #Gamestr
I can't believe Nukitashi is getting an English Dub?! I would believe it's the same level as being in a dub for Redo of Healer. A résumé killer. It's a real welcome surprise to see and now I can recommend it to my friend since he only watches dubs. Time for a rewatch! ( ╹▽╹ ) #Animestr
After reading the author's page in the latest volume of Mieruko-chan, I decided to try writing a story in four pages or less. I think I came up with a good one. It's a combination of most of my interests and ideas expressed in a story.

I really like that a stat page was added to Goetia Shock. It's always nice when light novels include extras like this. It makes it easier to recall information when something is mentioned or referenced in later volumes.
Tis the season so here's my top 15 horror movies of all time. I'm due for a rewatch for some of these but it's a pretty good encapsulation of my tastes. #Filmstr
Smiling Friends is back! Pretty funny season opener but I felt season 2's was stronger. Silly Samuel's big crash out at the end did have gasping for air.

Daiya Fortuna had her 2.0 debut. It was nice to see what her new design was going to turnout after all the teasers. I much prefer her version 1.0 design. There's beauty in its simplicity, and I really like the artist, but I know how much she wanted it to be scary. I'm glad she has a design that she's happy with. #DaiyaFortuna #Vtuber 
Felt a wave of old school weeb nostalgia so I decided to make a 3x3. There's definitely a lot of shows I have to rewatch or get to but is firmly my 3x3 for now. #animestr
It's crazy Genndy Tartakovsky has to restore to posting this test animation only line to get Sony Pictures Animation to greenlight movie. The bit of details he revealed so far, an adult animation about knight controlling a 20 foot tall suit of armor combined with this footage should be an instant buy. However I do sorta understand why the execs are cautious because I think the last American mecha movie was Pacific Rim Uprising (?) and that didn't do well at the box office. Still hope The Black Knight sees the light of day theatrically instead of being locked away in Netflix Hell!

Despite a rocky start with the dub script being less crude than before and the iconic "Repent, motherfucker!" line not appearing until late in the show, Panty and Stocking Season 2 was overall a fun time. I'm glad there was an additional scene for the ending because of after all this time they would give us almost the same "Demon's Payback" cliffhanger like season 1 I would have been underwhelmed. Well more underwhelmed since the final fight didn't have a big spectacle like summoning Panty and Stocking 's mom. Thankfully it looks season 3 would be a huge shake with Junior and Bastard to keep this fresh. #NewPSG #Animestr 
Obviously not much on Physint. Especially since Kojima mentioned before he's still in the early stages of the story but it's nice to see the poster #Filmstr #Gamestr #KJP10TH 
OD looks like it's shaping up well! Wonder how far along it is from being completed? #Gamestr #KJP10th 
This has been best string of episodes. You really get a feel for how Baku is a hero in this episode. Also I'm surprised he transformed in the real world so early. 😅 #ZEZTZ 
Milky Subway was a fun watch. I really enjoyed seeing these characters interact with each other every week. Hopefully it gets a season 2. #Animestr 
Someone Hertz is a pretty cute first chapter. It's a pretty unique concept of a studious person trying to excel at one liners for a radio program. Maybe I'll keep up with it to improve my joke telling 😅. #Mangastr 
Part 1 of the story is over and it was a pretty surprising ending. It's a joke that with Mochizuki's presence the series turns into a horror romcom but the ending did solidified it as Thriller adjacent without how her plan succeeded int the end. Mochizuki looks like she's going to be the overt antagonist in part 2 similar to the Guidance Counselor. Not that I have a problem with that since she's my favorite character but I'm wondering how Shinji is going to fight back since she seems to be the hand controlling the board. #Mangastr

That was a pretty funny one shot. Hope it gets picked up for a series.
Full launch roster for Gekishin Squadra is out. There's a good mixture of unique characters that I honestly didn't really expect for them do but I'm glad. However:
I'm sad there's no Dragon Ball representation at launch. Bulma, Pilaf Android 8, anyone from that period would have been great since there's a ton of wacky attacks used during then.
Also surprised there's no Original Character in this game. After Gohan Black, Bonyu, Android 21, Giblet, Zaha and Shallot I would have expected Squadra to also introduce someone new. #Gamestr 
Weapons was pretty good. A pretty good slow burn horror. That ending man. It's nice to have a laugh that good to relive all the tension from the movie for a happy ending. There are some weird plot that doesn't really make sense to me but those would be just nitpicks of anything. Nothing major that would bring the film down for me. #Filmstr
Milky Subway it's a short indie series with episodes being around 4 minutes long and a new one coming out every Thursday.
