  1. What constitutes a "series?" I keep thinking of franchises that only have two or three entries, or even just one primary entry and a variety of spin-off material. Still, there are a few ideas I can confidently say apply. I was a huge fan of Brian Jacques's Redwall while growing up, especially the book Mossflower. It was, as far as I can recall, the first fandom I got involved with, especially in regards to fanfiction; the writing side of the fandom used to be quite active in the early 2010's, though it became significantly less so as time went on. I remember a specific story called The Sword and HIs Flowers that had a profound impact on my perception of storycrafting, and may have been the beginning of my fascination with story theory. Unfortunately, the author took all of his works down at some point, and I've been unable to find a copy of it elsewhere. I have good memories of reading the Anne of Green Gables series with my family, which took quite a few years for us to get through. It's very difficult to carry a series solely upon the depiction of everyday relationships, and this series manages it across an entire generation-and-a-half. There isn't cinematic drama or tension, but rather charming slice-of-life that is nonetheless relatable and compelling. My favorite book was Anne of Windy Poplars, though the nature of the series makes it best (though not necessary) to read in order. Doctor Who comes to mind, but with a regrettable stipulation of distaste for the recent direction the series has taken. I didn't mind the initial reboot, and appreciated the new approach of giving a complex character arc to the titular character. Unfortunately, once that arc had run its course, the series collapsed in on itself, with initially following episodes throwing out random ideas and failing to explore them, and more recent arcs being heavily weighed down by extremely obvious agendas lacking appropriate artistic presentation. Comparatively, the classic series may not have had much depth to it, but it was still fun and engaging. Most stories took a flat-arc approach (i.e., main character is the agency of change in the world around him), and worldbuilding was accomplished slowly and naturally. But I digress. Every Doctor has a specific episode [chain] that best showcases their character, but for me the highlight of the series is The Key to Time saga and The Five Doctors. That's already quite a bit, even just for three, so I'll leave off for now (maybe more on the 'morrow?).

  2. As mentioned before, I'm going to talk about some anime that I love. I'm a huge fan of romantic comedies like Love is war and Maid sama. Its nice to watch shows that aren't too serious and focus on being lighthearted. I love the style these shows try with comedy too. There is also Spy x Family out currently and and I love everything about it, especially Anya! I love psychology shows as well. Higurashi is one of favourites and I love how the atmosphere was handled and the way the mystery was set up. The characters are all cute which makes the scenarios more disturbing. I really enjoy Re Zero too, even if it's an isekai show. I'd love to hear some of everyone's favourites!

  3. Inspired by Gou's recent Musical Discoveries post: I've come across tesla coil arrangements before, and so far this is the best one I've found. On a side note, there ought to be a tesla coil Crimson in the Black Sea ~ Legendary Fish. After the meme songs, that is the most obvious piece to cover, no?

  4. I do hope so too. May they see the daylight. Truly is a sad time isn't? Now you can get this limited edition costumes for the low low price of "480" god crystals. Which you can get from "special" errands which will give you 1-3 god crystals but with RNG, you could also pay us and receive your costumes. (I remember when they have 320 costumes in the shop, those were lost in the past.) Actually, I did a lot of big brain decisions when playing Ex stages and especially the tower. Since I'm very familiar with Turn-based games, those're cake walk for me. I'm currently in Floor 48. (I don't have the motivation to do more floors) With only weak teams no S+, S or anything like that. Best case scenario, the boss will miss the attacks and will use a useless spell card. But coming back to the team selection, I only had 17 characters and 70% are occupied by fairies. I did use the continues feature and maximize my whole team. First barrier breaks and pray that your units do oni level damage and No rng gods will curse you. And of course, I've beaten all the Ex stages; those were really a pain on my butt.

  5. We have seen them already in the main story so please, for the love of ZUN, someone add them in the game. At least Kogasa and Mayumi. Unless they tie the appearance of normal 2hus in the game with the event they are featured in, and the only characters coming together with the story as banner are the SFES ones. It really is a shame we longer get the free costumes. I think they stopped doing it after the half a year anniversary, and was just one of the many controversies sparked at the time. Until now, I really did not play too much of it. I need to beat Floor 15, and just cannot get to do it without wasting a lot of resources. Which is even more ironic, since I have two fully upgraded SFES units (Lunar War Toyohime and Reimu Shaman). I did not manage to beat any of the EX stages either yet, despite the very strong units owned, since most of the times I try playing turn into an unorganized mess of a combat.

  6. I can see this being a problem with the sprites from 13.5. I wonder how it would work though with those from the early fighter gamer (IaMP, SWR and Hisoutensoku), since supposedly all the character sprites are on the same level. Even if those are still quite stylized, we can at least see how the artist for the (battle) sprites interpreted it. Yeah, I really like the style of Iganashi. The characters look cute drawn that way

  11. I honestly have not checked if this song has already been mentioned in here, but I discovered this recently thanks to one of Asprey's livestreams. I think I did listen to it for like a hour when he played Spell Bubble as the challenge level was hard to get over during that livestream, then I decided to search the song for myself. I was not disappointed. So anyway, ladies and gentlemen, here is Flame of Fate from THE OTHER FLOWER Also this cool metal cover from YaboiMatoi for Immemorial Marketeers (bonus Mike GyateGyate)
