April Fools... ;_; (You really had to do me like that.)

LMAO, I had to do a double take before I remembered it was April 1st. For something they chalked up really quickly, the band did a decent job. For those who haven't caught on, this is アンフィル. It's just an April Fool's joke. If you like this "darker" sound, this is the closest they get to it (ユナイト-dark):

John's Personality Test: INTP (Took this multiple times (3+) w/ the same result. Doesn't include -A/T) Keys2Cognition: ENTP (Questions are more specific = spending more time w/ each question. More variability w/ each result.) 16 Personalities: MEDIATOR (INFP-A) (Mostly consistent, but I can tell what "types" the questions are geared towards.) 🤔 I felt like 16 Personalities was a bit heavy on the "dream" questions which likely influenced the outcome. I dream a lot, but they have a place. Usually I err on the practical side when it involves actual tasks. I'd chalk this up to an INTP-A (INTP + a slight amount of extroversion = A) which I got a couple years ago. *Seems like the MBTI subreddit likes JPT the best.

Two thoughts: I hate the fact that it took me two career paths to finally end up on web development b/c I really enjoy it. While I have to be in a constant state of learning (everything is a matryoshka doll of languages, libraries, and frameworks), it's really fun getting things to work. It also taps into a creative side that was largely untouched w/ what I was doing previously (Spatial analysis in ArcMap can be kinda fun, tho. I'll give it that.) (Also, I can turn my Adobe CC repertoire into something career-relevant.) I'm messing around w/ an Nginx server and a Node.js one atm. I'll have to hit up the books/vids on Docker when I'm comfortable enough w/ Linux & Git. After getting my Vita to ENSO 3.60 and setting up the necessary plugins & .vpks, it's switched from glorified dust collector to one of my most used devices. It's an emulation machine w/ RetroArch and Adrenaline. Additionally, I can remote play w/ my PS3 (w/ Rebug CFW), PS4, and Steam (+ CEMU, Dolphin, and Citra) w/ Moonlight. Shit's cool.

I only like their first album, but it's pretty freaking fantastic.

BOP -- also bop. kinda wish they toned down the autotune, tho

Was wondering when a vk band would inevitably use DeepDream AI on their album cover. Vocals feel really subdued, tho 😔.

I thought it was giru's break down riff, but yea it sounds a lot like Red.

Breakdown needs more cowbell.

This is actually REALLY up my alley, wew. Normally i'd want the vocals to be more abrasive with a song like this, but I like the contrast in this case. My only gripe is that the low-end sounds a bit too bassy/muddled.

That's the same merry go 'round in Neverland's "Merry go land" MV :D. The song is nice, but I kinda miss their heavier stuff imo (not like "silence dreamer" on this single w/ those really subdued/airy screams.)

Their first full comeback release will be EPIC.

Nearly finished w/ Sayonara Umihara Kawase+ for the Vita, and started playing a bit of Umihara Kawase Shun (PS1) which has my favorite soundtrack of the three. I recently started the Hyperdimension Neptunia series w/ Re;birth 1 (also Vita), so I plan on playing 1-3 before moving onto anything else. (Compa's voice got annoying enough to where I had to shift her to support o_o) Puyo Puyo Tetris got a complete English Translation fan patch for the Vita, so I'll squeeze that in whenever I can.

This. I'm familiar w/ the overall plot of Re:Zero, but haven't watched/read the series. However, I still think there's a fine line between a fallible character and a straight-up dunce (same could be said for a virtuous one v. a gary stu/white knight.) I'll still pick up most drama series, but certain melodramas will cause my eyes to gloss over when there's a snowball of forced stupidity, regardless of it coming from the MC or side-character(s). It all comes down to personal preference, and realism is not always indicative of quality.

YOOOOOO- This is really good!!! Amanojaku never disappoints :D.

Starting to dig up old YT/niconico videos from memory. I'm glad this video format still thrives on niconico, haha.
