Understandably! Yoko Kanno is one of the greatest composers of all time!

I was thinking of you recently. I started watching a new mech anime called Bravern. It’s pretty ridiculous and over-the-top but the mechs are classic!

Hiya! I've been good. Hope you've been well sounds like you have some storms. I just went through a round of storms... more coming later this week XD.

Ohhh let me know how visions of mana is. I've been eyeing that one XD. Hm, don't think I've heard of Armed Fantasia yet.

Well hello to you as well. I am glad to hear you have been doing some interesting things I haven't heard about Silent Mobius but sounds interesting thing. I have been quite busy with nursing school and doing clinicals at the hospital so my time is limited but was able to find time to catch up on some anime and TV shows.

Currently watching Fallout - vault 33 story, I am a huge fan of Fallout. I have played New Vegas, fallout 2-4, Fallout 76 a little, and even cosplayed as a vault dweller. The tv series is better than I expected but yes the creators could have done better but is not a flop which I am glad since not many games/stories do not do well when turned into action. As for anime, I am enjoying the funny silly show Mashle and finished Grim variations which I enjoyed the different stories plus the twist on characters.

I hope you keep finding interesting original Japanese anime.

You didn't care for SF6 I take it? That's a wild coincidence because I JUST finished that game this weekend! In terms of its fight mechanics, I actually like it more than SF5. The characters are goofy and fun as usual, and it was nice to give each character their own ending in arcade mode. As for World Tour...some of the interactions with your teachers like Zangief and Dhalsim are very funny but it's also SOO grindy and the less said about Chapter 15 the better. Either spend 10 hours grinding to level 60 or have 1000 healing items on hand because you have 7 fights in a row with absolutely broken opponents. Your attacks if you're level 50 do very little and any of their attacks just devastate you. Then the ending just...sucks.

As a competitive fighter I give SF6 an 8.5, I give the regular arcade mode an 8 and World Tour probably a 7.

Did SF6 have some censorship controversy I'm not aware of? SF5 removed the statue of Christ the Redeemer and tastelessly replaced it with a world cup trophy! lol. That was also SF5 that decided that it was too much for Rainbow Mika to taunt by slapping her ass. I don't offhand remember 6 doing anything like that.

As as I'm aware, the main controversy with SF6 was:
Eternity: "Hi there! I'm here to be as aggressively transgender as possible. Do I even identify as a man or a woman? Who knows? I'm going to withhold my pronouns so you can just sit there and wonder about it!"
Every SF6 Player: "Who the fuck are you and why are you here? SF has never had an announcer at any point. Just go away!"

Note: Eternity is based on a New York City drag queen and is deliberately in your face and abrasive/obnoxious. I just wanted to make the joke since players were overwhelmingly baffled by the inclusion of this character given Street Fighter’s previous lack of an announcer or in-game spokesperson.

I've been wanting to use something like what you're referring to with DeepL. I'll have to look into it. I guess it would also be helpful for things like game roms and such if you screenshot something from that and throw it into there. The translate app on iOS can only do so much even though it's possible to give the general idea. I can easily translate more when I can verbally hear something but text is definitely a different story if I don't know what the word means. Particles are the hardest thing for those languages.

Yes, I have but not very seriously. I’ve been using Duolingo before.
Ah, would love to play Grandia, when I finally save up to buy myself a Steam deck. Otherwise, I’ve not played it before. Seems great though.

Yeah I’ not sure which came first, Sand Land or Dr. Slump. Still solid stuff so far though.

Never played Digital Devil Saga but heard good things!

Hi there! Sorry i’m answering your comment a year later but to answer your question i fell in love with see saw (more specifically yuki kaijura) when i discovered them through the .hack// anime series and gundam SEED ending song. It’s rare i go out of my way to casually listen to japanese music but theyre an exception :) how about you, do you like/listen to them? and hm by IG do you mean instagram?

Also omg nice to see michelle ruff in your favorites!! She’s def one of my all time favorite english dub voice actors, i just love her voice! What are your favorite character rolls by her?

Kind of a new bf honesty. Started dating in late february. What's the new Japanese book exactly? That sounds great. I'd love something that could help with reading raw manga. Still not familiar with kanji most of the time though. It's really hard.

hey! Been busy with life and such. Having a boyfriend really makes juggling everything else difficult. I finished Sousou no Frieren but it's not my cup of tea. Imo it's not that good. It's boring and dry and idk why people even like it honestly. The other ones you named are more interesting.

I've gotta start watching the shows I had planned to see this season but more than half of them already have pretty low ratings and I never know what to trust because I have animes I like that are low rated and I just feel like peoples taste is all over the place and some people are crazy saying a show is bad when it's actually good or vice versa.

Hey, I'm doing well. What about you?

Sounds good! Good luck~ :)
I watch and read somethings as usual. Nothing news from me. :D

Yup same here, would watch it coming home from school with a snack. Good times. And yeah there’s Dragon ball Daima that was in the works before his passing that will be coming out in the fall. Sand land is currently airing and I’m really enjoying that too.

And I hope for a cure for those things too!

Yes.. but I give up in only two months.. it's hard.

I have interest in Grandia, but not play yet. ( sorry fo my poor English, I need learning this first)

I'm only good at speaking Japanese because I grew up speaking it, but I still suck at reading in Japanese. I know my hiragana and katakana, but I do suck at kanji. My reading is better than my writing, though only one problem is I read too slow. When I go to Japan, I just rely on my relative when I need help reading something in Kanji.

The added benefit of learning mandarin is you could begin reading mànhuà in its native language. Plus there is so much good Chinese sci-fi if you like that genre.
