WOAH CONAN LETS SLOW DOWN A BIT

Admittedly the translation seems a little stiff. Dakki says “I’m done playing with Taikobo” in one page and then one page later, opens the door to his cell and says “let’s play” as some pretty limited phrasing. And now there’s “cold-hearted” and “heartless” in the same phrase.

Forgot how chaotic and funny the first chapter is. Taikobo encounters like one of the strongest characters IMMEDIATELY and then tries to run away while slipping in the comment telling him he’s got no style lmao

More new Garo? Higashi no Kairou? But still Ryuga verse possibly…without Jinga so ehhhh

178. Mogambo (film): first seems like it will be a stirring, gorgeous romantic adventure with big names and a complicated love polygon, but doesn’t use its ingredients well. A sort of listless safari campaign, uncharismatic performances (barring Gardner) and half-baked romantic conflict. Meh. 6/10
November 21, 2025 at 4:49 PM
177. They Were Expendable (film): a postwar film made about WWII not as a celebration of the American victors who got to go home and relax, but lamenting the hopelessness and despair felt by those who didn’t see an end to it. A slow burn not as pretty & tight as The Long Voyage Home but solid. 8/10
November 21, 2025 at 4:40 PM
176. Detective Conan - Captured in Her Eyes (film): premise had the potential to be a very interesting reflection on Shinichi & Ran’s relationship & giving the former a bit of an arc to be less complicit & static romantically, but it’s all swallowed by usual Conan mystery mechanics. Still fun. 7/10
November 21, 2025 at 4:34 PM
175. She Wore a Yellow Ribbon (film): another Ford film about the twilight years of one’s life, has a liiittle more learned wisdom and feel for aging and wistful melancholy, especially around retirement in the middle of a war and stepping down but doesn’t fill in its romance & world strongly. 7/10
November 21, 2025 at 4:29 PM
174. Pilgrimage (1933 film): has a few nice moments like the old ladies clearing out the shooting gallery & such, but mostly feels like a standard film about a curmudgeonly, regretful woman learning to appreciate life again in a rather safe way made by a not even 40 year old John Ford. Quaint. 7/10
November 21, 2025 at 4:16 PM
173. Alien Nine (anime): feels like it pulls punches a bit, not expecting Narutaru levels of fucked, but it feels creepy enough that it seems like it will promise some apocalyptic payoff with really bold imagery but feels a bit tame. Still neat though, but surprised the anime is incomplete. 7/10

Alien 9 girl is a Trekkie I guess lol
November 18, 2025 at 10:34 PM
172. The Wolf of Wall Street (rewatch): first watched this in theatres when I was a film novice but thought to give it another chance with more perspective to see if my stance would change, but nah I still think it’s too decadent and passive in its critiques still, but very fun debauchery. 7-8/10
November 16, 2025 at 1:09 PM
171. The Crowd (1928 film): yep, incredible. The form is timeless in its brilliance, crazy work for a silent film from the 1920s, a fantastic look at American exceptionalism and the falsities of the American Dream. Doesn’t switch gears perfectly in approach, but still quintessential. 9/10
November 15, 2025 at 10:08 PM
170. Judge Priest (film): has some especially dicey politics which even the remake couldn’t fully excise, not for everyone, but for those versed in Ford’s filmography, it’s another complexly layered examination of the pains in pursuit of community & morality even amidst more dubious spaces. 8/10
November 15, 2025 at 10:03 PM
169. Final Fantasy Tactics - The Ivalice Chronicles (game): should’ve trusted my teenaged instincts, this was mid as hell. Really primitive gameplay with difficulty you either break or get broken by & a TREMENDOUS grindfest; overcrowded story with ho-hum characters & scattered focus. Overrated. 6/10
November 14, 2025 at 8:39 PM
Aight what’s first on the surgery recovery period docket, gang? (Still waiting to be let in lol)

2nd image is film directors I want to dig into more

Video came on suggested for me comparing the Gozyuger openings, just noticed the blacked out bit of Sumino while it shows the other characters in those ring images. Yeesh. youtu.be/yh8mjyVeI2o?...

I’ve been going in a descending order according to the current RYM user average (mostly just to get a feel for what’s considered “the best” before I gradually get thicker into their stuff) so I am about to get to White Light from the Mouth of Infinity

…You know what? I think it’s easier to throw shade at Garp sticking around with the Marines despite the atrocities that have happened around him and how much he had or had not intervened, but I think we should REALLY be putting Sengoku on fraud watch. Dude approved like every shitty decision to-

Wow, great ad to try and fuck with you and your phone the second you open an app. Thanks YouTube 👍🏻

Happy belated birthday to this dead set cunt. Who else would have the audacity to name one of his characters “Coom” (Qum)? Diabolical game, no one else like him.

168. The Wire - Season 2 (TV): maybe a pleb take, but I think it’s a big step down from S1. Just don’t think the drama is rigorous enough to capture much momentum, it has two speeds: snail’s pace & Mach 5 for when it wants to dole out so abrupt major developments, so it feels very uneven. Dece. 7/10
November 3, 2025 at 6:46 PM
167. Chainsaw Man - Reze Arc (anime): yup, this is Chainsaw Man done right. Expressive, funny, tender, epic, this is how you do CSM’s pulpy black tragicomedy vibes. Good CSM content adapted well, had a blast. Also the AkiAngel fanfic stocks gonna shoot through the roof after this, goddamn. 8/10
November 3, 2025 at 2:58 AM
166. Once Upon a Time in the West (film): feels like it takes parts of each of the Dollars trilogy and remixes them into something newly exciting with a splash of Fordian nuance. Plotting can be a bit confusing, so I’ll need to rewatch to feel more firm but the style is undeniably god level. 9-10/10
