Bro omg these telescope picturesView attachment 356425View attachment 356426View attachment 356427
Its making my astronomy loving heart cry
As someone who loves astronomy I can't help but just think "how many stories are in those pictures alone? How many habitable planets with life are there? How many are there of a species like ours just looking towards the sky and asking why are we here?"

I've always believed that one of humanities goals is to reach the stars and to beyond. There's so much there and so many stories beyond.

We are a pale blue dot in space as Carl Sagan once said. The vast cosmic ocean is beyond us so let's jump in instead of bickering about this and that with governments and such.

Posting The Pale Blue Dot once again. It really did change my life:

Teostra has a new theme? Or are you talking about Rises version of his theme?

Either way. Im to busy throwing my ass back to his theme to fight him correctly
Sorry, I meant the Rise verison of the theme.

There may or may not be Namco leak about their Fiscal Year for 2023 stuff. I'm not including the tweet as to not visually spoil what would be included, so I don't get any hopes up. I list the titles I saw below as a spoiler, so it's easier to ignore for some.

Tekken 8, Xenoverse 3, a new Tales Of game, DBFZ Super, Digimon Cyber Slueth 2, and a new One Punch Man game were listed.

I don't think its real, but its also not so far fetched that I couldn't see some of it happening.
Hm, didn't the developer of the Digimon games say the next game won't be CS related? I guess it could've been a change of plans or titles since it has been a long time since the last Story game, but that does strike me as odd.

"disrespecting" is a strong word. Like.... come on. The turtles being out of character is the most i can give you. The 87 show can be downright idiotic at times.
Also TMNTSSB4 TMNTSSB4 , apparently Peter Laird was really bitter about the 87 TMNT show, and the crew that made the special said that a lot of the digs came from him.
well the 03 gang did kinda yell at them and call them irresponsible without trying to help them out, also spent a good bit of time treating them as useless, and then the Mirage Turtles also made them scared and run away without them even trying to do much.

not saying that they weren’t idiotic in comparison, but they weren’t useless for the most part…also not too surprised by Laird not liking the show (and explains why they weren’t too good in the crossover).

Fair. I haven't watched TF in a while actually. Won't again till I get to the end of the 2003 show.

Man, a follow-up to Turtles Forever with all 4 current TV teams would be really cool. Especially now that Laird isn't really involved and can't veto anything (hope for a better Venus de Milo in the future).

if you count the IDW comics, then there’s already a better Venus

also I don’t think we’d get any more crossovers involving the Rise Turtles based on how much Nick doesn’t want to do anything with them after their movie finale releases next month…the big oof

Oh yeah, the leaked is allegedly posting the final Starter Evolutions today, so be warned that these spoilers may flood the internet.

I'm assuming that guy who leaked tomorrow as the date is incorrect then, unless they announce something later this afternoon on the same day as Kirby, which is unlikely.
To be fair, Gamefreak probably doesn’t care about competing with any Nintendo property.

Also they don’t have to announce the trailer. They shadow dropped a bunch of trailers, like the final starter evolutions in a sun and moon.

Which funnily enough got leaked hours beforehand like a few other Alola trailers because people found ways to access them early.

Oh yeah, I forgot about shadow dropping. I assumed it'd be like a Presents lmao. Regardless, we'll figure it out by tomorrow probably.


In unrelated news, the guy is leaking more and more images. It's getting insane right now how much is coming at once.

It feels weird that all these ScarVio stuff gets leaked but SwSh was relatively a tight ship.

Granted there wasn't much to leak from SwSh, but feels like GF did a better job then than now.
My guess is Khu is right when he says this game isn’t even about the gym leaders and there’s a bunch of other objectives and things to do.

He said Gamefreak is aiming ambitiously and trying to use as many previous ideas as they can from past games that never made the cut. They also said there’s a lot of new Pokémon.

So they probably have a lot more people involved this time, making leaks a bit easier. So far though with the Pokémon we know about, I can totally see this ambition coming through.

Jennika and Venus are completely different characters IMO. Honestly, in the next TMNT i would want Jennika's story to be very similar to the IDW comics, but for Venus to also be there and for the turtles to just have a sister.

no I literally mean Venus de Milo, not Jennika. They recently brought her back in the comics as a robotic/android like corpse of a female turtle who was murdered and has no memories of her past life

I mean we are like 2 trailers in and we don't even know the general plot or gym leaders or anything aside from the professors and like 5 mons which for Pokemon is very unusual.

That's..... wow. I just want the turtles to have a sister man. Interesting to see where the story arc will go though.

There was a problem fetching the tweet
not at all what I’d expect

at the moment it went through a dark and frog related depressing phase, but now they’re transitioning to the Rat King’s major arc (while Venus…idk…Venuses). Bright side is that there’s still April, Aloplex, and Jennika around as women (and this one little girl turtle I forgot the name of)

Yeah, i'm just gonna wait for the next animated series. I just want a 2D animated TMNT with a tone like Batman: The Animated Series. I might read the IDW comics at some point... but they gotta like publish a major omnibus or something.
