Flame-X

DOOM Bought the game from GMG (green man gaming) for less than $30. Best single player FPS game I've played since Wolfenstein New Order. Loving the gameplay and the creative level designs. I'm about 5 hours into the game.

Watched the first two eps of Berserk. The animation is stiff without a doubt but I've been so used to the movie trilogy's animation that I can't really complain about it. The one thing I'm disappointed though is the no nipples on the nudity. Maybe that's a uncut bluray thing, I don't know. Otherwise, I'm just glad and thankful we finally got a Berserk anime that's not covering the Golden Age for the 3rd time.

Bought this from Anime Expo. Best con purchase I made in years.

I just came back from Anime Expo and caught premieres of a couple new anime. The first one I saw was the premiere of Tales of Zestiria the X. They showed eps 0 and 1. Based on the OP scenes, it seems Zestiria and Berseria are connected. I find it strange not a single character mentioned anything about malevolence. My biggest gripe is the amount of exposition the characters need to vomit. So much talk talk talk talk talk and no show. The visuals are quite nice considering the animation is done by ufotable. The best premiere that made my weekend was seeing Makoto Shinkai's new movie, your name. It's absolutely beautiful is every sense of the word. Without a doubt, Shinkai's best film yet. The man himself was present at the event explaining some of the behind the scenes, and his english is surprisingly good! He literally completed this movie last week of June. During the screening, I didn't notice it (nor did anyone else) but he was walking around the room watching the audience reactions. Everyone was absorbed into this movie. Unlike his previous films, this one isn't super depressing or melancholic throughout. It conveys a wide spectrum of emotions ranging from sad to comedic to audience pleasing. I can not talk about the plot due to risk of spoilers but I assure you that this won't disappoint. 9/10 Previous Season Finished Shows Joker Game Interesting show but there's no clear sense of the plot direction. So all these spies do their thing collecting information, but for what? We never get to see anything beyond that. Not only that, but the show ends without any sort of resolution. 6/10 Kabaneri of the Retarded Fortress Nuff said. 3/10

Wow, what a packed finale. Aside from what's already been said, I'm really mixed about Arya now. At this point she's truly a psychopath. I have no issues with her killing Frey but it's the circumstances and her expression leading up to that. There's no doubt in my mind that she skinned an innocent maid to disguise herself by wearing that face. And after slitting the guy's throat, it's like she had an orgasm. I don't hate Arya but this scene definitely left me no longer rooting for her. I'm certain she'll die before the show's end.

Shows I'll definitely watch next season: Arslan Senki S2 Berserk Alderamin on the Sky Tales of Zestiria X Potential Interest: 91Days Mob Psycho 100 Taboo Tattoo That's pretty much about it for next season.

Watching Sony's conference was like a breath of fresh air after that atrocious Ubishit's press. It seems that Ubishit marketing team and execs are totally outta touch with their key demographics, gamers. So much filler talk from that annoying host. They really need to trim the fat and get straight to the point.

After seeing EA's press conference, I'm definitely on board in the hype train for Battlefield 1 and Tittays 2.

I dare you to replay the original right now and see how well it holds up. I'll be waiting on your report.

I was pretty disappointed with their pre-E3 announcement for Deus Ex. Gah dammit Square shoving mini games up on our asses. Why not just give us a full game with a decent story instead of this filler crap? I think it's time we get a remake of the first Deus Ex game. That retro polygon graphics and dated gameplay makes it real difficult to play. But other than that, I'm very excited for Mankind Divided. Probably the only game worth the pre-order on my list.

Currently watching... JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Diamond is Unbreakable It's Jojo, fun disturbing action black comedy as usual. Nuff said. Joker Game It's got a interesting premise with professionally trained Japanese spies spread out in the world but since it's takes place around WW2's era, it kinda difficult to cheer for the main cast, especially when patriotism is strong in this one. Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress I like this show. It's entertaining, but so stupidly written at times it makes me wanna throw my arms up half the times. Can the adult bystanders be smart for once rather than be a plot device for our main characters to look smart? Macross Delta My favorite of the bunch. I'm really digging this show. The music is pretty good, except for the OP song. Mech action is great. I miss that valkyrie action and transformations. The romance seems to be taking its sweet ass time. But other than that, very enjoyable show. Highly recommend! Oh and Freyja is so much better than Ranka Lee as a character.

Been going through a nostalgia trip to the 90s.

New trailer on Deus Ex Mankind Divided further exploring the themes. No gameplay footage but impressive production values presented here. This is practically Ghost in the Shell the game.

Wow, so they introduced time travel/manipulation into the show. I guess they kinda foreshadowed it in the previous eps in the Ned Stark sword fighting scene where Bran shouts out "dad!" and Ned turns around. I did feel bad for Hordar but after thinking about it, I found it kinda dumb from a writing standpoint because with time travel elements now in the game, that device can hack the plot however it wants and that detracts the emotional value of that scene. Now I have no idea where this show is going now. Every plausible fan theory is flushing down the drain.

Bought these from Anime Central. I'm getting back into Gunpla finally.

LUNA SEA - KISS English translation lyrics:

Yes I'm mostly a PC gamer. Berseria looks promising but I'm gonna be cautiously optimistic. One thing I noticed with the Tales franchise is that they have a terrible track record for memorable OSTs. There hasn't been a single Tales soundtrack that was worth the listen. Do any you guys feel the same? I'm curious to know.

I'm currently still playing Zestiria. I can't comment much on the story as of yet but the problems I've encountered are mainly technical issues. While there are some graphical glitches that can easily be look past, two big things are unforgivable; locked 30fps and atrocious camera angles in the battle system. Both are very noticeable. When you see things move from a distance, the game sometimes skips frames on moving NPCs. The camera though, my gosh, this has got to be the worst camera angles I've seen in a Tales franchise. When you fight in tight spaces, the camera attempts to zoom in beyond first person making it impossible to see what you're doing. There were a few times where the camera was zoomed on to Sorey's feet. Aside from that, I'm still somewhat enjoying the game. At this point, I'm probably more than half way done since I've gone through all the spiritual element trials.

Returned my nifty fifty and bought a Canon 40mm f2.8 pancake lens instead from ebay. White version was cheaper than the black one so that's what I went with. And here's what it looks like attached to my GH3. This makes things a lot easier to travel.

Well, I was wondering where this certain someone was this whole time but he'll finally reappear in the next one.

I've read the manga for it and although there's more content (& difference) to the story in the final arc, I can safely assure you that the anime's ending is far superior. If the anime was more than 12 eps, then the final arc would've been adapted more faithfully.
