Managed to completely catch up on Normal Raids in XIV. Hadn't done any since Omega until 2 weeks ago. Eden and Pandaemonium were great. AAC is actually pretty hard, but it's fun.

Vampire Survivors 243 / 243 Achievements

It's really funny getting all of the achievements from the new update and expansion in Vampire Survivors and knowing there's still so much more to unlock.

It's also incredibly funny to me that 4's failed ritual is only 10 years before the game's story because the setting looks and feels so rundown it's as if it had been multiple decades since then

The previous games all take place 100 years after their rituals failed

You'd think at some point that you'd run out of these very specific isolated Japanese communities, or that they would have heard about how that village in the mountains screwed up their ritual and got wiped off the map

They need a death ritual convention for trading warnings

Currently playing through Fatal Frame 4, and it hits you immediately that you have stumbled upon another isolated community doing a ritual involving the underworld that requires sacrificing young girls

It's hilarious that the premise is the same but the details are so different

I DWELL ON WORST CASE SCENARIOS IN MY HEAD ALL THE TIME, SO I'M READY FOR THEM IF THEY HAPPEN.
IT DULLS YOU TO IT.

FUNNY HOW BY DOING THAT, YOU'RE ALSO PROMISING THAT WORST CASE SCENARIO ALWAYS HAPPENS, EVEN IF JUST MENTALLY AND EMOTIONALLY.

We went from a 2nd arc that got progressively darker and more serious in tone to something so laid back it was almost unrecognizable as the same show
All-in-all very confusing, though it can still be fun at times
Very Toei-coded

Then we get a kind-of 10th year anniversary of the first anime climax where the protagonists from past stories all show up via time travel and alternate world hopping ala Toei's tokusatsu anniversary story-telling
It unfortunately doesn't feel earned during this arc

The last monster of the week story is happening with its "haha funny" shenanigans when suddenly MetallifeKuwagamon tells them about a hunter who's feeding Digimon data to some weird boulder-faced creature and that he's just a shell of a Digimon because his data is almost all gone

But talk about burying the lede
It's all just monster of the week stories that are fairly light-hearted and silly with a slightly dark undertone of spiriting away kids
But the kids always make it home and the problems always get solved
There's no overarching narrative being built

Like there were obviously small hints
- DigiQuartz looks like a post-apocalyptic version of the city and they shout time shift to go there
- The cameo characters show up midway through the arc with the clockmaker saying "it's not time yet"

Rewatched Xros Wars recently
The 3rd arc isn't as bad as I remember, but it's still really weird that they tacked on the 1st arc of a sequel season to the end of the show
Then they made a finale with stakes just as high or higher than the end of arc 2 with nearly no build up

I'll let you know when I figure that out.
