Minato

91.) Weapons

REALLY good horror movie! I loved how the story was set into chapters each being told from a different character’s perspective as we slowly learn more about what’s going on.

It’s really unsettling too, definitely worth a watch.

90.) Chainsaw Man: The Movie - Reze Arc

Holy fucking shit, that was incredible

This is the arc where the series REALLY picks up and I’m glad they did it justice. The ending is SO much sadder when you’ve read the manga and know what happens next.

89.) Kamen Rider Gaim

Excellent OST, the fights were really cool, and I liked a lot of the characters.

The story took a lot of crazy turns and it was interesting to see something different from the usual 2-episode arcs format

It’s probably my favorite KR season so far

88.) Higurashi Chapter 1: Onikakushi

I think I liked this more than Umineko Ep. 1! The pacing wasn’t as slow, the character interactions were endearing, and I was interested to learn about the dam project.

Looking forward to reading more of this!

87.) Psychopomp Gold

A really surreal game with an odd sense of humor and horror. It’s one of those games were you gotta see it in order to believe it.

86.) Dance of Death by Iron Maiden

Hilariously bad album art aside, this is a pretty great album

Great opener, great riffs, and overall enjoyable. Montsegur is probably my favorite track on the album so far, I really like the opening riff on that one but my favorite may change on repeat listens

Day 20: Trivolt Ghidoreign

A reploid of otherworldly origins, he seeks to stockpile all energy by draining his victims with his gravity beams. He has a fierce rivalry with a certain atomic based mutos reploid.

#Megaman #Godzilla

Demons dwelling in his WHAT

85.) Super Castlevania 4

Damn, Simon feels incredible to control in this game! His whip can be swung in multiple directions and I can actually control his movement in midair

There’s still some annoying crap in the final level, but this is still my second favorite sidescroller CV game (behind RoB)

Best of September:

1.) Ten
2.) Deltarune Chapters 3 & 4
3.) Tsukihime
4.) Paranoid

84.) Deltarune Chapters 3 & 4

Absolutely incredible. Go play Deltarune if you somehow haven’t already!

83.) Paranoid by Black Sabbath

Yep, this one’s a classic. War Pigs is just outright my favorite Black Sabbath song I’ve listened to so far and IDK if anything’s even gonna top it.

Was too lazy to finish this thread earlier so lightning round time

82.) Seventh Son of a Seventh Son by Iron Maiden

I liked it! My favorite song was definitely The Evil That Men Do

81.) Four Minute Mile by The Get Up Kids

Not much to really say other than “I liked it.”

My favorite songs were No Love, Fall Semester, and Coming Clean

80.) Tsukihime manga

My god, it was incredible. The art was gorgeous, the story was engaging, I actually found myself really invested in the romance between Arcueid and Shiki, and the finale was such a bittersweet yet beautiful gut punch.

Call your senators and your house rep.
Make a stink by being clear that abandoning trans adults and children is a no-go.
Cis people, call and be loud for us. We are tired.

The funny thing about him being worse is from GF’s focus on 2v2 teambuilding

Even a low tier can have an amazing team if their partner plays off their strengths (ex: Rosa & Will) and some high tiers just don’t blend well

…the wiki lists his counterpart as his best teammate

Black Battler (Umineko: Golden Fantasia) [I’d probably recommend giving a spoiler warning to anyone currently reading the visual novels just in case]

Late as hell, but I recently finished Umineko and found a perfect guy from its spinoff

I won’t say his name due to spoilers, but I’ll give a tagged picture so you at least know who I’m talking about.

His ability is more circumstantial, his fireball’s easier to dodge and he’s got WAY worse HP

the trans pride flag

Here is some non-satire for you:

Trans rights forever.

To my fellow cishet dudes: when we are quiet about supporting the trans community, the only voices anyone hears are the Charlie Kirks of the world. Don't let accusations of being "performative" or "virtue signaling" shut you up - that's their whole point. Our voices are needed now more than ever.

It’s hard to really narrow my favorites down to three songs since there are just so many stand-out tracks on the album

Fair warning, this album is DARK, but I highly recommend checking it out at some point if you can handle it. Probably one of the top 2 best albums I’ve listened to all year.

Why Go is a story of a girl sent to a mental institute by her parents, unable to escape since she has nowhere to go

Alive and Release are based on the true story of Eddie Vetter learning his real father who he never met is dead (one is notably darker and hopefully more fictitious than the other)

79.) Ten by Pearl Jam

I’m honestly blown away by how good this whole album is

I love how the songs all tell their own individual stories, and the dark lyrics paint some vivid pictures

Even Flow has an iconic riff and tells the tragic life of a homeless man

Black captures the pain of a heartbreak

78.) DOOM

Still holds up really well. It’s simple yet fun and the weapons are fun to use

My only complaint is that at some points the level design felt too much like constantly running around trying to figure out where to go next (this was mostly an issue I had in Episode 3 tho)

Best of August:

1.) Umineko Episode 8
2.) Pokémon Moon
3.) Godzilla VS Destoroyah
4.) Superman

People were so hyped for Silksong that Steam just crashed LMAO

If TF2 existed in Umineko, Erika Furudo would absolutely main Dead Ringer Spy

My favorite part was actually the Elite Four. Seeing 3 of the trainers you met throughout your journey was just so cool to see!

I loved playing through this game so much that I was genuinely sad when it was over. I haven’t had this much fun with a Pokémon game since Pokémon Black Version

And the post-game was also cool. Seeing and fighting Blue & Red was neat, Guzma has one final rematch with you (albeit without his theme), and the Ultra Beasts were a fun addition (albeit I wish I got to explore their dimensions like in USUM, guess I’ll have to play that later.
