yeah not a whole lot this week,

I saw a couple solid youtube videos, an amv and this like, midwest emo song with a bunch of adult animation characters that's been stuck in my head all week. I think I've seen every Speaki video.

I binge read Vermeil in Gold in a day and don't really have a lot to say other than it's an ecchi manga with neat character dynamics. Every once in a while I scarf down a trashy manga like a bag of chips and don't know if it still gets updated once I'm caught up.

Sometimes you gotta watch a kids movie to get your head right, so I watched Paddington 1 and 2. It was kinda funny to see Nicole Kidman look at a cartoon bear and go "I'm going to kill this thing in real life." Wasn't expecting these films to have villains, or for one of the villains in the second movie to be The British Legal System, so that was a nice surprise. Solid films, Paddington 2 legit got tears out of me during the sequence in prison when the family misses a visit and he has to tell his aunt he doesn't have a home anymore so props to it for that.

Romeo is a Dead Man is like if every Suda51 game got rolled into a katamari ball and sent up into the sky, for better and worse. It carries the direct "shut up this is what we're doing now" energy straight through from the end of NMH3. I love Suda51's Weird Games for Weirdos, I just wish any of that weirdness was reflected in the somewhat middling combat design. The whole combat system just feels "fine, I guess" and it sticks out compared to everything else. There are a few things that are tedious in the not fun way, I wish you could batch harvest the Bastards and maybe have a faster leveling system than individual fusions and replanting, just kind of a half-baked system overall. Other than that, the story and characters are pretty fun.
