I've had fun with them before so! New year, new media thread.

(Full disclosure, I tend to hide spoilers in the alt text of included images, so be aware of that)
Everything I've ordered in the mail lately showed up today spread across the afternoon.

(Everything new here was in one package and required very little assembly, though)

本当、関係ない人にはどうでもいいことなのだけど、ミレーヌのオリジナルで描いた衣装、AIの人にパクられて心が死にそう。私はAIに関してそこまで否定派ではないのですが狭いジャンルでマジでこれはやめてくれ。

You know that one comic of Kiryu Kazuma where he says "TIME TO DO SOME CRIMES" and then doesn't do any crimes? That's Corbeau from PLZA.

Unfortunately I'm strongly beginning to consider shipping my private warehouse after the 1/12 nun doll clothes I ordered that have been delayed for eight months finally came in stock.
Anyway HLJ I love and support y'all but I am not shipping my private warehouse until I can rest assured I won't have to shell out an unknown extra amount of money for it to actually get to me.

Thinking about how while I know about plenty of Japanese media that has untranslated side material, I wonder how many cases there are of the opposite. English language movies and TV series that are wildly popular abroad that are missing crucial context and published material.

Hanging out at the furnace is a blast!

My favorite subgenre of cute girls doing cute things is when the cute girls are doing something that's not traditionally "cute" but the work never questions it. Girls driving tanks is the pinnacle of womanhood. Of course all maids know how to skateboard. You fool. You absolute buffoon.

Had a particularly good session yesterday, had a bunch of upscores even when the down arrow started dropping on me. Think I need to get out to R1 sometime soon.

Software development, as a concept, doesn't really happen between now and the first full week of January, but they'll be damned if I don't have to show up and sit down all the same.

The word "gormless" has been real big in my household lately and every time it does, the phrase "Gormless ~Those Without Gorm~" bounces around in my head like it's the name of a Mitsuda Yasunori BGM from a long forgotten PS1 RPG.

Now admittedly I've only played a handful of these games and none of them recently! But I'm genuinely running the risk of my main PLZA team going over my current level cap, and that's never happened to me before.

Only real ones know about the "Original Video Animation adaptation from the 90s, of the middle segments of a radio program, but only the OVA ever got brought stateside, so generations of anime fans have gone 'lmao this SUCKS it makes no sense' because they're missing 90% of the story"
After "film trilogy that dropped a critical plot point exclusively via timed Fortnite event" and "video game series whose story only makes sense if you're aware of the events of a canon pachinko machine", I feel like there are whole frontiers of user-hostile narrative design waiting to be explored.

hmm. not very wise.

While I was working on this I also -finally- figured out the right adhesive to use on all those scale building sets I've had sitting around half-falling apart. Excited to re-assemble those and use them for photo backgrounds again.
Assembled, detail painting: HGAC Gundam Deathscythe Hell

Whoever decided the tiny central chest piece should have seven stickers is my enemy.

Tried some new topcoat on this bad boy. Really like how the manual for this international regular release is in three languages! (English, Spanish, French)

I haven't had my brain Activate while assembling a plamo test mockup like this in a while. This is going to be so radical once I figure out how I want to make a replacement skirt.

If you were curious, I had someone get him to sign my R-2 Powered manual when he was at Fanime one year. It's the first plamo I ever built. He even added a quote!

My favorite part of someone watching Ideon for the first time, besides everything else, is how everyone always comments on the shitty folding chairs they got onboard for the first few episodes.

I've updated my fan page! Putting all the art I've commissioned/requested/etc in one place. Big shoutout to every single artist on here who was kind enough to let me feature their work here.

Thinking about the extremely pregnant woman who was seated next to me at the movie theater yesterday.

Excited to see the interview from some bigshot new director in thirty years where he opens with "well, my mom saw Angel's Egg when she was eight months along, and that's when it all started"
