That bad?It was very good. But yes, also that bad.
Demon had Specialization in Improvised Weapons

Nyaight of the Living Cat: Take all the tropes of a Zombie movie...but it's Cats. Also seems to include various Cat facts.
New season off to a good start. Plenty of returning favourites along with some new surprise
First episode was a lot of fun. So far the Priest/Assassin is probably my favourite. She's like if Revy from Black Lagoon got Isekaied.
Feels like an adolescent trying to prove himself. Young, reckless, not as experienced. (sidenote: Killer of Killers was interesting)
For fans of Bakarina, the "My Next Life as a Villainess, All routes lead to doom" movie just dropped on Crunchyroll. Catarina finds herself caught up in the plot of a different story and must save someone else from Doom flags.
Well, the trailer towards the end has Peacemaker meet himself, so maybe he goes to a different Earth? That could explain how he (and possibly some of his friends) get to the Gunnverse. Or, it could be that the Argus adjacent characters are basically about the same in both universes.Good point. Although I dread the thought of more multiverse stuff. hmmm....if you went through a Multiverse Door and found a version of yourself that is doing much better than you. How would you handle that? How would Peacemaker handle that? Maybe he kills and takes the place of his Gunnverse double.
Sm-33
lol yeah I love this
Our cycle of streaming service has brought us back to Disney+ and finally getting a chance to check this out. 1 episode in First Impression
Planet seems a bit weird
Space Pirates Oh this is going to be fun
Couple of Konosuba OVA episodes just dropped on Crunchyroll. Couple of fun little side stories
Looks like 3D Printing on on the cusp of the next stage. Came across a Kickstarter that claims to be able to incorporate Electronics into the Print. If that tech works out that will be a pretty significant game changer. Really wish I could get myself one of the Resin Printers but with 4 Cats I need a safe room for it and I do not have one at the moment
This and Superman are probably the first time in ages that I am thinking of actually seeing a film in the theatres instead of waiting for a streaming service to pick them up. Both films just feel really good to me
First Episode of Anne Sherley did a nice job of capturing the characters. The style of it looks very traditional but I am curious to see how people who don't know the story react to it.
Finally got a chance to see this and I loved it. Great characters all around. GI Robot and the Bride being my top two. Very high on the Blood and Guts clued in pretty quick when GI Robot got taken to that little meeting. Can't really blame him though now can you
I'll be honest after how season 2 ended I don't really feel any pressing need to start on season 3. Show is pretty much on my pile of "If I have nothing better to do"
"Red Ranger in another world" just added a new bit of fun.
Might be hard to find but Crest of the Stars is a good older style Space Opera
oh and if you have an urge for a bit of life lessons comedy with a side of yakuza, try The Gokusen also give you 50/50 odds on enjoying Outlaw Star
maybe Ergo Proxie or Psychopass
oh my goodness. I just stumbled across the Live Action movie of the Guycer on Amazon Prime.
Have to admit, initial look at Fantastic Four is good.
Finally, Season 4 of Thunderbolt Fantasy finally shows up on Crunchyroll.
"From bureaucrat to villainess: Dad's been reincarnated." I enjoyed this so much.
ok so Zenshu is my surprise this season.
Surprisingly good first episode, It's worth checking it
Season 2 Teaser Trailer for this of all things Everything old is new again
"Hey want to see something cool" is the right approach to a trailer. Don't spoil the whole plot for us just show us enough to know you're trying to get it right. Some very cool moments in that and more than enough to get me excited for the movie.
Every season we get two or three isekai these days, so I tend to look for the ones that have an interesting twist Next month we get "The Red Ranger becomes an adventurer in another world" A Power Ranger gets Isekaied. Complete with his transformation, Ranger weapons and freaking Giant Robot. I love me a good Genre Clash so I'm going to check this out
Watched a couple of them tonight. not going in order just picking and choosing as I feel like I liked the D&D one, though I don't give them good odds winning the cliffhanger fight they left us on. Pac-Man was horrifying and yet it works
From what I was reading it's the last season for Arcane but that they plan on doing other things for other parts of the world. Different characters, different setting, different story.
ok...so all the classics are getting new versions.
Remake coming in 2025; Cat's Eye This is probably one of the earliest anime I ever saw as a kid. This a few others would run on CBC french (along with Harlock, Cities of Gold and an anime of Anne of green gables of all things). Being the latest series to get a modern remake is great to see. Can't wait for it....but looks like I'll need to restart my Disney+ subscription
Season 2 begins I'm taking it slow, episode a night, so only one episode in but already....you can tell this is going to get ugly. Never did get into the video game, so still pretty clueless on the character backstories outside of this show but I can't help feel Jayce did not make the right choice with how he saved Viktor. That just feels like it's going to go hideously wrong somehow.
New Dragon Ball Daima series started today and honestly It's not bad Starts almost immediately after the Buu saga, so around 3 or 4 years before Super. Biggest thing so far about it Spoiler: Namekians are Demons again, also still aliens but apparently they were originally from the Demon Realm, and then escaped to the Mortal realm and set up Planet Namek.
Haven't read a lot of his work but I still hold a grudge for what he did to Wally
So my Night Below game is taking a break while one players has stepped away the rest of the group decided they wanted to wait till he comes back. Meanwhile they want to play something a little different "We all want to be Kobolds" they said So I have 1 week to get an Episodic Kobold campaign ready to go. It is a fine excuse to bust out the Savage Company books that I kickstartered ages ago.
Was talking it over after watching episode 4 today and the consensus we came to is that there are Good Scenes in this but those scene are then tied together with the flimsiest of string. They just don't seem to put a lot of effort in getting to each of the good scenes.
I'm a big fan of the manga and anime and honestly the Live action did a great job. Yes they changed some stuff and skipped some stuff but the Important beats of the story are all there and the heart of the series is there. It is probably one of the best Live action adaptations I've seen I won't go into too many details but yes, Usopp becomes useful. Sharpshooter and Tech expert, in fact he invents the weapon Nami will be using in the future.
I think part of the issue is budget. most of the people I've heard say anything positive about it the best I heard was "It's fine" or "It's ok" They spent way too much money on the show for it to be "just fine". It had to be Blockbuster just to reach bare minimum level of success. Honestly I think that's a problem for Movies and TV production right now. They keep dropping huge amounts of money on things, until the only way for the thing to be a success is to be a World Wide Blockbuster.
With my Night Below Campaign, The group is getting closer to the City of the Glass Pool. After sitting out a Month in a Dwarf Mining town making magic items, they started hitting the Derro caverns. I used the Unchained Simple Monster creation rules to make some Mind Flayers to add into the mix. Might adjust the Stun Blast so that there is a Save each round. Very nearly had a TPK when the Druid and his Badger were the only ones still up after the Flayer blasted them. The Stonelord Paladin even had to get his Earth Elemental involved (normally only uses him for scouting, cause it's only a Medium Elemental and not that tough)
That one is pretty good another good one to check out is Sweet Home....not exactly a Zombie story but ....more like Zombie story on Acid
New season of Thunder Bolt Fantasy coming in October If you have never seen it, Give it a chance. Gen Urobuchi writing and Studio Pili puppet theatre action
Tyrant's Grasp, I got eaten by a giant flytrap and realized I still had not replaced my lost dagger. So here is me in the gullet with a Warhammer and a Heavy Flail And a Tree Feather Token It worked but it hurt a lot...and then I fell out of the tree which hurt more.
ok so Creature Commando's trailer came out and it looks pretty fun
Season 2 Concludes with a Bang
Spoiler:
Superman and Kara get help from "The Cavalry", superteam put together by general Lane (Livewire and the other Intergang crooks) plus Dr. Irons in his Prototype Steel suit. Brainiac reveals that Krypton was in the process of Peace Talks with their enemy and the War was going to end. HE was going to be Decommissioned....he couldn't allow that Activating the "Eradicator" protocols he placed in Kara he sends her into berserker mode. When she breaks his control Brainiac tries to kill them by throwing them into the Sun. To everyone's surprise that turns out to not be a good idea. Happy ending for all and waiting for season 3
The stubbornness of Lois Lane vs. the Black Mercy AI for the Mind of Clark Kent Meanwhile Kara defends Earth from Brainiac while fending off Luthor's army of Metallos and Task Force X I am really glad to hear that a Season 3 has been approved already cause they have done a great job with this series. There may be a lot of weird twists on a lot of classic Superman lore but they really do have the spirit down right.
so strictly rumour mill right now but Kumail Nanjiani as Booster Gold? Honestly if it turns out true I don't think it's a bad choice.
Brainiac uses a device called "The Black Mercy" to manipulate Clark's Memories while Kara, Jimmy and Lois mount a rescue attempt by infiltrating Kandor, Brainiac's space station.
ok interesting, apparently people looking at some of the recent photos have spotted that Mr. Terrific, Hawkgirl and Guy GL all have LordTech corporate logo on their uniforms. Maxwell Lord funded JLI, maybe?
Oh my
Well Jimmy has spent the rest of his fortune, hiring Livewire to help him and Lois steal a space ship to go rescue Clark. Monsieur Mallah and the Brain join them, because after visiting various alternate realities they discovered that the Other versions of themselves are....less than polite. So they returned to Earth-12 and have been having regular brunch with Jimmy. Also Lex gets to test his "Project M" prototypes. A collection of Kryptonite powered robots. Have to say though, getting a little tiered of Amanda Waller being the face of fascism at DC these days. She was always a hard one but these days everyone seems to portray her as Way over the line of Reason.
While most of it is still a mystery I think we do get a hint in the final episode of the season. Spoiler: 73 Yards apparently is the range of the Perception Filters on the TARDIS. So everything around you to a radius of 73 Yards is always in a language you can understand, and everyone in that radius sees you as something that fits their world view. So the episode is probably something that the TARDIS did to Ruby. Why? no idea. maybe a round about way of trying to warn them about what was happening. Regardless it was those same Perception Filters that were used by the Big Bad to set up his evil plan
Season had it's ups and downs but overall I think the ups outnumbered the downs. The good episodes were really good The big question now is Ms. Flood. Clearly she's the one who has been making it snow around Ruby, probably to set up Sutehk but there could be something more to it then that. Gonna have to wait for the Christmas special I think
