I see more people.

I'm Rory, recently unemployed, nice to meet ya'll. Let's talk why not.

I can also be found on Discord, you can message me if you'd like to chat.

I do occasional NSFW reposts so be aware, but mostly I like to talk about funny things, as well as games/tokusatsu/anime/etc.

Some people asked me if there was a way to donate to me directly. While I am extremely uncomfortable about this, a lot of close friends convinced me I should set something up, so I set up a ko-fi for those that expressed this. Please do not feel obligated. ko-fi.com/ashuraou

Tomonobu Itagaki-san has passed away.
A message to his fans:

"Last Words
The light of my life is finally fading.
The fact that this message has been posted means that the time has finally come. I am no longer in this world.
(I am entrusting this final post to someone important to me)..."

遺す言葉
私の命の灯は、いよいよ尽きようとしている。
この文章が投稿されたということは、遂にその時が来たということだ。私はもうこの世にはいない。
（この最後の投稿は、大切な人に託しています。）
私の人生は、戦いの連続だった。勝ち続けた。
たくさん迷惑もかけてしまった。
自分の信念に従い、戦い抜いたと自負している。
悔いは無い。
ただ、ファンのみんなには、新作を届けることができなくて申し訳ない気持ちでいっぱいだ、ごめん。
そういうものだ。
So it goes.

Last Words
The light of my life is finally fading.
The fact that this message has been posted means that the time has finally come. I am no longer in this world.
(I am entrusting this final post to someone important to me.)
My life has been a series of battles. I kept winning.
I have caused a lot of trouble, too.
I am proud to say that I followed my beliefs and fought to the end.
I have no regrets.
However, I am filled with regret that I was unable to deliver a new work to all my fans. I am sorry.
That's how it is.
So it goes.
Itagaki Tomonobu

Record of Lodoss War (Mega CD) CLEAR! Here, have some pretty end credits artwork to celebrate :D

A screenshot from Record of Lodoss War (Mega CD). This is an art nouveau-ish image of blonde-haired elf Deedlit in a flowing pink dress with large white flowers in her hair. Her hair flows upand across the top of the screen from left to right, meeting a trail of roses running vertically down the right hand edge of the screen, forming a border.

Brady, if there is a way I can donate straight to you, I would like to do that. You made me feel appreciated even when I was just a proxy.

Hey friends. After having open heart surgery in Dec and another procedure in July, I've been left in 10k+ debt while recovering. During this, we were also laid off from Skullgirls. To try to help dig myself out, I have begun listing things on eBay: ebay.com/usr/mshinzan
