[Megadoomer]

My brother came home for a week or so due to the holidays. In that time, I managed to get him hooked on Hades (he played it on my Switch, and then bought it for himself), and I indirectly convinced him to play Final Fantasy VII (he bought it on the Switch but hadn't started it - I made a comment about how most people's favourite Final Fantasy game tends to be their first one, which made him realize that he hadn't beaten a Final Fantasy game yet despite owning a few).

I also got him Fire Emblem: Three Houses as a Christmas gift (I wasn't sure if he'd like it or not, since he liked Awakening but was mixed on Fates, but he seemed happy with getting it), so I figure he's going to be pretty busy as far as Switch games are concerned.

I just realized in Animal crossing you can have the aurora borealis in your kitchen

A... Aurora borealis? At this time of year, at this time of day, in this part of the country, localized entirely within your kitchen?

 

[cashregister9]

You're a Gurren Lagann fan? Respect.

Aw Hell Yeah, It is one of my favorite shows and Kamina is one of my favorite characters of all time.

What's the issue, Wade? You don't like cats??

Good man.

I'm more of a Simon guy myself but Kamina is an incredibly fun and extremely influential character throughout the show.

 

[Wademan94]

Even as a dog person, I don’t trust that cat or the one petting it.

 

[Dutch Raikuna]

**** it, I'm gonna pull an all nighter. Been ages since I've done one and I've two cans of Dr Pepper and a can of Monster left.

Also looking at the fact that I have seven seasonal anime starting in January while only having about three big games to look forward to between now and April (Hitman 3, Nier Replicant remake and Persona 5 Strikers).

2021 is gonna be a very slow year at the start but my god is that amount of anime gonna be good.

Even as a dog person, I don’t trust that cat or the one petting it.

Or the one posting it, amirite?

Wade no. You made my cat sad.

Something’s off about them both. I don’t trust either of them

Welp. The moment has passed, back to non-existence.

Oh those are animated btw.

 

[Dutch Raikuna]

So guys wanted to ask a slightly serious question being near the end of the year.

Being with the pandemic having flipped everyone's lives upside down this year, has the forum ended up being a pillar of support for you or not?

For me, the answer is obvious. Yes and then some. With of course a bit of steps back but also forward being on the forum has really helped me grow as a person when I was suffering a few major setbacks. I've not only overcame my fear of making friends online, but I've smashed in a way that it has helped me grow.

I'm really grateful to a few of you guys here.

Pokémon is going to celebrate the 2021 space sunrise.

There was a problem fetching the tweet

I'll give it a 10% chance that we'll get a game or 25th anniversary announcement out of this.

So, Deoxys is guaranteed gonna appear.

Why do I feel Sinnoh vibes from this?

 

[Wario Bros.]

Really want to get back to the IDW Sonic the Hedgehog comics.

I stopped at issue #24 because that's where the digital comic service I'm using currently stops at and I haven't gotten around to looking elsewhere.

 

[Aurane]

Why do I feel Sinnoh vibes from this?

You don't.

Edit: oh wait what am I doing? I'm not existing right now.

Because space was made by Palkia.

Kokoro Bosoi Na is my least favorite Urusei Yatsura ending though. My favorite would be either the first, the fourth or the eighth.

[Dutch Raikuna]

Serious question got buried but I was bored with it.

Also been really trying to get a perfect score on Taiko with this anime OP.

Madoka Magica is a show I'm still really divided on but man I would love for a proper JRPG set in it. Or Assassination Classroom.

Re;Zero's RPG I'd be look really forward to but not a fan of the chibi-artstyle. Think it kills it.

No, it means the next region will be in Space

While I don't think chatting here has done much to help me overcome my social anxiety, I do love talking with you guys and you all have helped perk me up during some incredibly stressful moments in my life. I know that I'm not very open with my problems and that's something that I really need to work on.

I know that I'm not very open with my problems and that's something that I really need to work on.

That's what PMs are always for. Feel like I'm too open with my issues in that way as it reminds me that I need to do instead of think about my problems. I also hope to go further in a way and make online friends that I would talk to vocally and such but I need to make sure I really trust them first.
On the bright side of talking about it, you yourself are one of those people who I'm glad to have gotten on well with. I definitely call you a friend along with a number of others here.

Still feels like this is the only place where it feels like my relationships have progress very far this year instead of the same or backwards. I guess one area is better than no areas.

Eh, ya know.

I wish I was out there, making connections. But it’s kinda hard due to the whole global pandemic. So at least I’ve got some morons to talk to here.

Thanks man, that means a lot.

Truth be told, I've always had a problem with keeping most of my issues to myself. it's certainly not doing my mental health any favors but I'm honestly afraid to open up and tell someone about them. Someday I hope I can summon a little courage and finally put some of my more internal conflicts out there, whether it be with you guys or a councillor. Right now I just don't know.

I know what that is like. Anything that I've told you guys has always been on the surface that it would take a whole series of books to explain everything beneath. I'm very internally conflicted but at the same time I know my right and wrong, it's hard to explain. For me counselling has worked for now and I'm going to see a psychiatrist for them to dictate who would be best to see in detail.

I really hope one day you can muster that courage to talk to someone like a counsellor, it's a great step and I think you'll feel a bit better. I also think the pandemic has messed a lot of us up mentally as well.

KingofPhantoms

Alright, I watched the first episode.

I’m not exactly enthralled, but I am intrigued. Eda and King are very funny, though I’m not too big on Luz. The Boiling Isles and it’s macabre sense of humor is something I could see myself enjoying.

I’m not gonna binge it any time soon, but who knows. Maybe I’ll watch the rest one of these days.

I'm surprised people don't seem to like Luz very much as a character in comparison to Eda snd King. Fair. though. I also won't deny those two are goldmine for comedy. King is what a Galrian Cubone would look like and is whet Bill Cipher would be if he had no powers lol. And don't even get me started on Eda.

The show gets better as it goes on, but a lot of the early episodes have plenty of great things to offer regardless. If you ever give the rest of it ago, please do let me know like you did for the first episode.

Eda is a really great and well written character. Luz doesn’t really change but gets cool skills later on. King is also a pretty nice character( and bill cypher). I would be very interested to your reaction to the show by the end of the first half and the characters in it.

I'm really looking forward to the second season of it.

The Mandalorian's second season just ended, so the only show I'm still watching that isn't/hasn't been on a lengthy hiatus is RWBY. I don't have much to watch right now, so the sooner The Owl House comes back, the better.

For me at least, I can’t say I dislike her, but nothing about her really stood out for me. She kinda just felt like another quirky and optimistic protagonist and not much else. I’ve only seen season one, though, so maybe there’s more character depth for her in season two. I think she has potential.

I know an imaginary person when I see one and they tell me that you are very much existing right now.
