With the new Monsterverse series announced...

I hope we get to see what Bunyip, Orochi, Leviathan, Abbadon and the others look like on-screen since there were little mention and their names only shown.

(Live action Mokele Mbembe!)

Edit: For Leviathan, I would prefer something like a whale/mosasaurus since having it as a sea serpent would be too similar to Tiamat.

Hope we also learn of other titans.

Notably would like to see Sedna (Orca/Wolf titan based on the akhlut from Inuit Mythology), Sobek (We need a crocodile titan), Fenrir, any shark titan named after any shark god in Polynesian mythology, Jormungandr, Nanook (Polar bear titan, imagine one with seemingly ice spikes protruding from the back of its body but is actually really its bones sticking out)

I just found out that the Made in Abyss anime will celebrating its 5th anniversary on July 7th, 2022.



Can't wait to see to see my favorite explorer, rabbit, and robot boy return for Season 2!

Wonder when Nintendo will add the two Custom Robo games to Japan's Nintendo 64 Online?

I'll go download the app once that happens.

Fun fact: Banjo & Kazooie is the only third party Smash fighter to not have appeared on a PlayStation console.
I'm assuming Minecraft skins do not count since one of the skin packs on the PS4 Minecraft Bedrock features Banjo. That said, it is the only 3rd Party with none of their titles on a PlayStation console.

2 worlds done in BK.

Only played it for the first time last year via Rare Replay. Glad I did because the draw distance was a little whack when trying to find one of the extra honeycombs on Treasure Trove Cove. Least I remembered vaguely where it was.

So been thinking about this again while doing a bit of music transferring. I might look into applying for a guest writer here if that's still open just for a few articles related to 3DS eShop. Been getting some of the soundtracks and man there is a certain charm to them all.

And the early Eshop contains one of my favourite 3DS/DS games of all time.

You can really say in a way that my love for shows like Non Non Biyori, Laid Back Camp and anything from KyoAni came from this and its cuteness. A fun fact as well is that the composer of Xenoblade did the vocals for the main theme of this game.

5 years since the Abyss came calling.

Really can't wait plus the game.

Nah nah, it's gonna be
PLA REVEALS GEN 9?!?!?!??!?!?

And it's gonna be a 60 minute video off of like 3 lines of dialouge.
It's weird, because we have 2 'leads' pointing in different directions.


On one hand, there's all the It*lian art in the Gen 4 remakes.


On the other, Copperahjah's dex entries hint at there being a region based off of India.



So we're either getting a Spaghetti Pokemon

Or Karna and Arjuna as a pair of Legendary Indian mons.

Thinking about it


A region based on India would be neat but


If I know one thing, it's that the more extreme Hindu groups really don't like taking their gods and such and changing them up. I know Smite and SMT have come under fire due to using Kali and Krisna by some extremeist Hindu groups.

That was also apparently the case with Asura's Wrath as well.

Give us an Italy region.

And make him 1000x more stereotypically italian.

Meanwhile SE using Shiva in Final Fantasy
It's weird because like


For the most part, Shiva seems to be a-ok despite being their basically main god, mostly because they portray him in extremely strong and competent rolls, like, Granblue refused to give him a Christmas alternate version for the Shiva in their game because he's a Hindu god, and Christmas is a Christian holiday.


And then SE made him into a woman and I dunno how they got away with that one.

Mythologically, some of Shiva's incarnations are women.

Leotard part is on SE, though.

What the headline says:


The actual reasoning:
“We at Mars took far too long to realize that go-go boots haven’t been in style since the 80’s.”
Live action Scooby-Doo says otherwise.
