Weebs: "Japanese media has always been apolitical"

Japanese media:
Kinda unrelated, but it feels like many Westerners miss that other countries have different priorities when it comes to politics. There are a lot of political undertones in Japanese entertainment, they're just usually different. (unless it's Nazis, everyone hates them)

Just sitting here watching the UK daily press conference on the C-Virus before anime (What A Contrast!) and I'm wondering what the world will be like after the crisis depending on how long this all is.

Like some problems that were in the background a month ago have now been urgently brought to the forefront to do with pay, overhauling the health service and all that.

It really is crazy but now I think fate really needs to shake the Earth sometimes to get us onto the right track.

Also a quarter of the world's population is now living under some form of lockdown. Pretty insane.

And yet amidst all this chaos there are tribes in the middle of nowhere like the Sentinelese who have been barely touched by the outside world for centuries at least and like many events like the World Wars, the world moves on in their place further away than the rest of the world.

Just some random thoughts. A few of you guys like to discuss stuff like this.

on the topic of New Horizions, I'm curious, for any of y'all who have the game, who were the first two villagers on your island?

Mine were Bam and Plucky.

Plucky's very eh, I forget she's there half the time

Bam on the other hand I kinda dig, cool dude

they're still the only villagers there right now, but I just built 3 other resident houses, so soon enough, I'll have a couple more come in

So I don't have a credit card. No big deal, I usually use cash and my mom helps me with online payments.


Except she sometimes doesn't when she deems I am having too much fun while having some school work to do. Hahah, kill me. It's not like I really want that fighter pass or anything...

I can't remember the other one, but I know that I have Axel. I used to have him in New Leaf too.

Hamlett and Pashmina. My brother said there were new villagers coming to our island soon but I haven't seen 'em yet.
Oh dang, Pashmina was one of the starting villagers in my first ever New Leaf town.

The reason why we haven't gotten a Nintendo Direct is because Nintendo has stopped making games altogether and canceled all upcoming games and DLC.

Just speaking the truth here. :upsidedown:

No the reason why we haven't gotten a Nintendo Direct is because they are making a parallel Direct for the lizard people in the other dimension cause by the meteorite. They have been bribed by the lizard people in Dinokyoto to screw over humans and make games for their dimension.

Sylvia (Kangaroo) - I kinda forget she exists. Mostly stays in her house.

Sheldon (Squirrel) - I only care about him cause he has the same name as funny bazinga man. Otherwise boring.

That's a lie because Ultimate Alliance 3 is getting DLC tomorrow.

Beat Doom Eternal. Hot damn dude, that game is fantastic. Like, when someone says that a game is an instant classic I usually roll my eyes but so far this past couple of years has been full of them. Breath of the Wild, Super Mario Odyssey, God of War, Doom Eternal. Game is fraggin incredible.

xD Now I wonder, didn't you got it like, the day prior yesterday? Dang, I would take my sweet time finishing a game because I just get that easily distracted. x'D I mean, heck, just now, after days of having the chance, I went back to The Silmarillion audiobook because I got distracted with drawing and thinking about a crab's immortality.

I was browsing through the Switch eShop and something made me raise an eyebrow: The eShop page for one game (Totally Reliable Delivery Service Deluxe Edition if you must know) was using black text on a black background.

How do they expect people to read that?

xD What the heck. If someone made that mistake back when I was in University studying the graphic design career, I feel they would have failed the entire course in an instant and get the boot.

Japanese media:
I'm honestly curious on when unironic hardcore weebs got the notion that Japan is the most perfect place with absolutely no "SJWs" and everything's an uncensored utopia free from "western influences"

Lets look at the bright side guys. The longer the direct the longer this era continues and we can keep speculating. That's the fun in this!

I wish I could get Doom Eternal, but looking at those system requirements just screams no. And it's not really a game I'd want to play on a console, so no PS4 version for me either.

As for Animal Crossing, I did time travel just to finally get the town hall. Let me tell you, having actual music back is such a game changer for the better. Haven't done anything besides that though, partly due to a headache and partly because I don't actually want to earn things too soon. I solely did it for the music, and can be patient with everything else.

Welp, an animation that I helped create came out! Here’s one of my parts. (Also, the toy models are by yours truly.) To clarify, the lighting is not by me. Hope ya enjoy.

xD Holy damn, that looks great! The models look very well done! :D And the lighting really gave it a nice (and eerie) touch. :) Congrats, Taylor!

Bruh speculate about WHAT. Like,
who said speculation was fun?
I think speculation is fun, WHEN THERE IS SOMETHING TO GO OFF OF. We ain't got ****, I'm pretty sure XBC is the last scheduled game before we literally have no release dates to look to.
