Chance the raccoon got too greedy seeing big packs of Eggos and got himself locked in the store freezer. He looks very perturbed.

His greed sickens me

Castlevania Nocturne wasn't as good as OG Netflix Castlevania, but considering how high the OG series set the bar and how close Nocturne got to matching, I'd still say Nocturne is pretty damn good.

And for all it espouses of love being the ultimate redeemer, I'm happy it exists, anyway.

If you see this, post a character that starts with D.

Gonna try and set meself up a proppa character sheet of this character, for once.

*deep breaths*

I'mma gonna need this break to decompress before I brave the SEED Destiny TV series.

Anyway.

I better stop here, it should be clear by now how unimpressed I am by the SEED sub-franchise. There are two things I can unequivocally praise, though;
Toshihiko Sahashi's music. He knows how to write a damn soundtrack.
Akira Ishida's voice acting in the middle 3rd. I loves me some hammed-up emotion.

I either hate every character, or don't care to remember them, because they're written to be checklistable tropes and not real characters. Kind-hearted crybaby super-ace, kind-hearted daddy's boy, spacey idealist idol, rich bitch, Fraw Bow stand-in, female captain, big brother ace pilot, etc. etc.

Some folk will argue that SEED is probably the darkest, deadliest, goringylest in the franchise for sheer number of deaths and war atrocities committed on-screen, but I just don't feel it. Every character death is played up for drama; every mook death lacks a particular BILE that Gundam's known for.

I personally absolutely hate the overall art direction. I hate how angular all the mobile suits are. Every character suffers from archetype sameface. Every location looks ass-generic. It is so infuriatingly cromulent, checklist, by-the-numbers coloring book anime. GOD.

I have mixed feelings about Gundam SEED.
The first ten episodes do the remaining 38 a disservice. It finally finds its identity (sorta) separate from G-1979 once they meet the 8th fleet, and shit finally ramps up in an interesting way once they reach Orb at the mid-point, becomes bingeable after.

A comic with 2 panels #1: A young person dramatically crying and standing with hands on a desk, yelling "OMG!!! WHY ARE ONLINE SPACES ALL GETTING ENSHITTIFIED?! WE'RE SO COOKED! WHERE ELSE CAN WE GO?!?!" with a dumpster fire in the background with Instagram, Twitter, Tiktok and Netflix labels on it. #2: Derpkitty (a cartoon lion) in the Elrond (from Lord of the Rings movies) meme, going "I was there, Gandalf. I was there 3,000 years ago... We'll be okay.", behind, a small hill with numerous grave markers with the following names of previous social media or online networks like Napster, Webrings, Angelfire, Livejournal, AIM, Geocities, Java chatrooms, ICQ, Guestbooks, Snapchat, Bulletin Boards, MySpace, Yahoo! Messenger, Newsgroups, Usenet, IRC, Skype (MSN) etc.

Oddly appropriate today eh? No matter how many online spaces come up then die, we're still here.

If you didn't come to party, don't bother knockin' on my door.

The alien ambassador sidled through the museum in awe.

"You Humans have so much art! Do you have machines to make all paintings, poems, stories and songs?"

"We experimented with that, briefly," the guide said. "But humans are both cheaper and more creative. And, well, we will make art regardless."

Ughghghgh, I wish Gundam SEED didn't take 10+ episodes to finally give an old-school franchise fan like me something of significance to chew on, that goes beyond "rehash of Gundam 1979" and undercooked "young protag anime tropes".

Keep taking more pictures. This environment is the sorta good shit we think of when we think "majestic mountain settlements" European and continental American countries.

So it's Black History Month and that means I think it's a good time to get familiar with Mike Pondsmith, if you're not already.

When you see R. Talsorian Games, that's him. When you see Cyberpunk 2077, that's his world.

Mekton, Castle Falkenstein, also him.

I think it was college when I last gave OG SEED a shot, but I recall not lasting past ep.10.
Some 20 years later, the first three episodes still ain't giving any confidence.

YEAY: Netflix (with commercials) is now part of my work benefits package.

NAYE: I'm forcing myself to watch the entirety of the Gundam SEED saga for work.

It really is a good song to cry to.

I'm not just for show, either!

I should make at least a token effort to produce something to show consistently, upload-worthy or not.
