On a financial level (and sometimes the fandom too, but that’s another story).
Collecting Japanese figures has gotten pretty expensive since I started ~10 years ago.
Now I’ll admit I can be quite stingy with money/be a cheapskate, but the examples below show that the prices are just getting silly in comparison to what they used to be and what you got for it.
So let’s go back a little, when yen prices were lower and the exchange rate was €1 = ¥170
MEANWHILE, in a couple of dusty folders..

Whew, that’s finally over.
A while ago the PC broke down and upon suggestion of other people, I went and built my new PC instead of buying one ready2go from a store. Oh boy..
Assembly took a while, but I managed. Performance and stuff is obviously way better than my old computer. GW2 plays so smooth on Ultra~ Gone are the days of 14fps on lowest settings!
Currently only moving over data and sorting everything again. No real rush with the sorting though.
I got at least the basics installed and should be able to upload the new Anivoy and Requiem layouts soonish. The AE one will take another bit, still not satisfied with it. Else I’ll just AEify the Anivoy one.
The SSD write-lifespan thing still terrifies me a little though..

..it’s already been over another year, huh?
To recap:
My hand muscle-strained hard and using said hand for tasks like drawing or using the mouse in general was very very uncomfortable.
After some physiotherapy and much rest, it recovered a few months back and has now returned to its former glory.
But.. My mind is totally set on the Scéal VN at the moment, and the short stories when I feel like writing them.
Once Requiem returns with Pt 2 of the Dema-Galrath fight (AND THE END OF DRY TOP!!!!!! This is my Berserk Boat), I’m really going to fast-forward this to either meeting Khilbron or the Ascension arc.
So a heads up to expect a fast forward comic where terrible things happened and that’s why everyone is depressed.
Stay tuned!
Getting caught in the crossfire

Woke up to see a google search DMCA mail in my inbox, concerning… my Angel Beats Summary posts (Also 14 spam mails in Japanese, but that’s not the point).
When I looked up the complaints, my site was bundled with all these streaming sites…
Nowhere on this site will you find an episode to watch!
Some people, geez..
Edit: And got another.. For a page that doesn’t even work anymore.
This confirms they don’t even check the content. JCCA confirmed for being incompetent.
So let this be known to all, never include the word episode in a blogpost title.

I went outside to buy supplies for my never-ending war against insects and encountered this creepy smiling woman.. Turned out she was a hologram. Or well, attempt at one. Calling it a hologram just sounds cooler.
Was a projector behind a human-shaped panel.
The whole shopping area was also being swarmed by girl scouts. Without cookies.
Preposterous!
Also, new Requiem somewhere in the next 2 weeks. Finally.

I think figure scan guy is dead. Or I’m just terrible at finding them. Probably the latter.
Just catching up with stuff from past seasons when I’m not busy. Rail Wars! lacked Wars.
Kinda like Guild Wars 2 lacking… well, guild wars right now. Though that should be fixed with Heart of Thorns, I think? Shirobako’s pretty entertaining.
And I can totally understand why Stargate Universe got canceled.
GW2 game client is getting worse.
First the Ancient Karka breaks it so I bluescreen 50% of the time when pressing play, now I get client errors too every time there’s a new patch. Terrible!
..I should get to this month’s Requiem comic before the month ends.

Saw on the statcounter a huge influx of people.
I thought this was because of the comic!
Nope. Well, wrong comic.
Someone posted my Mari Time figure comic on Reddit.
Okay.
