I am always in awe every time I see Threads of Time. You can feel the passion and vision from its talented indie developers with every glimpse weโ€™ve seen of the game so far.

Threads of Time belongs on your Wishlist!

It took 22 episodes, but the great Kinta finally debuts in the #Dandadan anime!

He was super divisive in the Dandadan #manga scene at first, so I canโ€™t wait to see what the #anime fans will eventually think of him!

The 17-26 #manga one-shots was Tatsuki Fujimoto at his most unhinged and experimental. Having them adapted into #anime is an insane, albeit welcome, decision!

Most of the concepts found in these stories will eventually find their way into Fujimoto's work on #ChainsawMan!

Kinta finally made his debut in the #Dandadan and of course Science SARU couldnโ€™t resist slipping in a ridiculously deep-cut #Gundam reference!

He was singing "Char ga Kuru" or "Here Comes Char" from the original Mobile Suit Gundam #anime!

Ubisoft keeps slipping #SplinterCell into everything except an actual Splinter Cell game!

Iโ€™d love to see the franchise return, but itโ€™s been so long I doubt younger generations know who Sam Fisher is. At this point, the only way forward is a remake or a soft reboot.

I was in the big city recently and a few people stopped to say they love my content. Honestly, I was shocked! I barely have a thousand followers across all platforms, so I never imagined strangers were actually watching what I make.

If someone as small as me can reach people, I am sure you can too!

Itโ€™s been a rough few weeks, but #TinyBookshop has been one of the bright spots that kept me going.

Itโ€™s the very definition of a cozy game, even if itโ€™s secretly an addictive management sim about selling books!

This weekโ€™s #Dandadan finally adapted one of my most anticipated chapters and it absolutely delivered!

Science SARU didnโ€™t just nail the animation and storyboarding, they went all-in and dedicated an entire #anime episode to it.

Thatโ€™s how you surpass the source material!

I am liking the art design of Sekiro: No Defeat, but I am still cautiously optimistic. The staff lineup looks solid though.

The studio will be Qzil.la. Theyโ€™ve leaned heavily on GenAI before, but it's unclear if AI was used in this #anime.

"Truth is... the game was rigged from the start"

The world of New Vegas was an intricate masterpiece, but the Season 2 teaser seems to have captured it with such accuracy and confidence. I can't wait!

Nobody blends nostalgia and fresh ideas quite like Sakurai and Sora Ltd. #KirbyAirRiders looks exactly how I imagined the game would be with modern hardware.

All thatโ€™s left is to see if playing the game matches the glow!

Itโ€™s been a heavy week for my family. We lost two relatives within days, on top of a family friend who also passed just weeks ago.

I donโ€™t judge anyone for their vices, but I will always encourage moderation. When health problems strike, the pain doesnโ€™t stop with you. It'll affect your loved ones.

Honestly, I never cared for #Warhammer40K. It always felt too convoluted and edgy. Then I played the Space Marine and Rogue Trader #videogames.

Now? Iโ€™ve been obsessed for the past year. Sometimes, all it takes is giving something a chance!

Mafia: The Old Country is a gripping, masterfully told crime drama worthy of standing alongside the very films that inspired it.

Say what you will about #Mafia III, but Iโ€™ve always believed Hangar 13 could tell a damn good story. This #videogame proved me right yet again!

๐ŸŸฉ First track is โ€œJa Ja Uma ni Sasenaideโ€ by Etsuko Nishio. It's the opening from the original Ranma ยฝ #anime. It's even funnier when you realize Jiji is in a similar mess as Ranma!

๐ŸŸฉ The second is more obscure: โ€œSora mo Toberu Hazuโ€ by Spitz, a classic from a popular โ€˜90s Japanese drama.

This weekโ€™s #DanDaDan episode is a blast, and Jiji casually singing โ€˜90s Japanese pop culture references makes it even better!

I finally got lucky with another Immersive Card after so long, only to be greeted by this placeholder art!

Turns out, the original art was pulled at the last minute because #Pokemon TCG Pocket was called out for potentially using a plagiarized Ho-Oh fanart. ๐Ÿ˜…

I seriously underestimated #RoboCop: Rogue City!

The beautiful thing about it is that it isnโ€™t just a love letter to '80s cinema but also early 2000s #videogame design. It's a simple and straightforward game with genuine reverence to the original material!

Mobile Suit Gundam Wing is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year!

When it first aired in 1995, #Gundam Wing served as a catalyst for a whole generation. The franchise may have evolved and the #anime have gotten better over the years, but Wing will always be a favorite!

This weekโ€™s #DanDaDan episode proves just how much stellar voice acting and masterful storyboarding can elevate its source material.

What felt like a quiet breather in the #manga became an emotional rollercoaster in the #anime. It was tense, touching, and overflowing with emotion!

The Wandering Village is such a refreshingly creative game where you literally build and manage a whole village on the back of a giant, adorable creature.

They said it was inspired by Ghibliโ€™s Nausicaรค of the Valley of the Wind, and they werenโ€™t kidding. The vibes are spot on!

My favorite part from yesterday's #Pokemon Presents is that one sleepy #Pikachu! The poor thing ended up sleeping through DJ Pikachu's hour-long set. There's also a Mimikyu trying to fit in!

I really love that time actually passes in the #Pokemon games and not just stuck in limbo. As a veteran trainer, thereโ€™s something special about watching characters grow, change, and move forward with their lives.

In All-Star #Superman, thereโ€™s a powerful moment where Clark dies and meets Jor-El in the Kryptonian afterlife.

If Gunnโ€™s Superman follows that path, I can see a moment where Jor-El tells his son heโ€™s proud, even after once urging him to do something else.

The #Dandadan manga already features amazing action panels, but Science SARU's vibrant use of colors in the #anime is something else!

The color shifting from gray to purple to red during fights creates this wild, almost psychedelic intensity that makes every clash feel like a sensory overload!

Iโ€™m still wrapping my head around the narrative and lore, but Lord of Mysteries might be the closest weโ€™ll ever get to a high-budget Bloodborne #anime.

It nails the eldritch horror and Lovecraftian vibes perfectly. Thereโ€™s just something about Chinese anime (Donghua) that hits on a different.

Just a reminder: you donโ€™t need the new Kitasan Black support card to enjoy the game! Itโ€™s strong, sure, but you can always borrow one in-game.

The FOMO created by the online community can sometimes make it feel like you really need to get the support card no matter what. #umamusume
