the premise is simple i think

the setting is high school, as it usually is, except all of the giant robots are connected to the school's extra-curricular club activities and are themed around and powered by them

e.g. chess club mech powered/controlled by chess, debate club mech powered/controlled by debate
the protagonists are, of course, a group of 5 or so scrappy delinquents who don't belong to any club but are failing their classes and have to form a study group, inadvertently awakening the study group mecha

the study mecha is both the weakest and the strongest one, since it's powered by studying and knowledge, so every fight is the delinquents trying to learn their opponents and the subject they represent to turn it back on them
there would be episodes like "the delinquent squad is bickering amongst themselves about something petty, powering up the debate club's argument-fueled mech!! can they put aside their dumbass differences for five minutes or will they be destroyed???"

racing game where "drifting" and "handling" stats are separated into "drifting left" "drifting right" "turning left" and "turning right."
there is no combination of character + vehicle parts that makes moving left and right the same in any way.

imagine, if you will, a crowd of catgirls or whatever losing their minds over a magazine full of sexy lady pictures, while a short distance away another catgirl is laying on the ground sobbing in the gutter. behind all of them a giant billboard reads "AU JUS" in eorzean font

5. discussion of the arcadion boss's familiar animation skeleton

A Tumblr post by user taffywabbit. The entire text is as follows:

I think more people should make fursonas and I'm dead serious. the process of self-exploration that naturally comes along with creating a funny little critter to represent yourself is SO valuable, as you consider the types of animals you vibe with and what kind of aesthetic/colours/personality/etc suit you and stuff like that (fun fact this process is how I figured out I was transgender lol. not saying that will happen to you but just proving that you can learn a LOT about yourself through this design process and any subsequent design changes)

and then when you're all done, you have a little freak you can do whatever you want with! edit them poorly into memes, commission lavish oil paintings of them to hang in your mansion, use them as a personal online mascot, design a fucked up evil twin for them to fight, soak them in milk and throw them at the wall, anything really. same stuff some people do with fandom characters they really like, except it's 100% yours and nobody can tell you you're doing it wrong! also now you have an animal your friends can associate with you and they'll send you funny pics/videos of that animal that make them think of you. literally it's just wins all the way down for you and everybody you associate with. everyone should have one of these things!!
