It's time to post! For today's blog post, I will be talking about why Astolfo from the Fate series is my favorite femboy. Since femboys have become more popular these days, I'd like to talk about why Astolfo is my favorite. Femboys always end up being the same exact cookie cutter character no matter what. They're feminine, gay, hardly mention that they are a boy even though they still identify as a boy, and they're basically just another straight girl who the creators made into a boy so they can say they're "inclusive". Obviously not all characters are like this, but most of them are. But Astolfo isn't like that. Astolfo likes men, but he also likes women. He's proud to be a man, and even though he's feminine, he can also be manly. Astolfo is a good example of a femboy because he's not just "this is basically a straight girl but we changed our minds the last second". He's an actual character, he's clearly a man, but he loves being able to be cute. What he wears doesn't shape his personality, it's just part of who he is. There are quite a few straight or bi femboys, so making them all gay stereotypes is just boring; and it makes people believe all feminine men are gay when that isn't true. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. As a little bonus, here's a picture of Astolfo. Enjoy!

It's post time! Every anime fan knows that cats are by far the most popular animal in this community. This is because cats are extremely well-loved in Japan. However, they aren't the only popular animals in the anime community. There are a few others that are common to see, and I myself have noticed six common ones. This isn't based on data, but rather what I've noticed shows up the most in merchandise and anime. So based on what I've noticed, in no particular order, Shiba Inu dogs, Husky dogs, bears, mice, foxes, and seals are also considered very cute in this community. So if you aren't a cat fan, don't worry! There are other animals you could pick from instead. I wanted to talk about this because it's really common to see cats everywhere in the anime community even though there are other popular animals. Regardless, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

3, 2, 1, post time! I know Pokemon has pretty much always been a popular game series. But why are the older games not available on the Nintendo Switch Online apps? Other big series like Mario, Kirby, and Legend Of Zelda are on there. So why isn't Pokemon? I know they recently released Fire Red and Leaf Green for the Nintendo Switch, which is why I don't understand why they weren't already available. Of course they do only cost twenty dollars each, but it still feels like the Pokemon Company is being greedy with their games. Instead of letting fans play it as long as they have an active Nintendo Switch Online account, they want you to buy the same games over and over again. It feels unfair, even if it's a one time purchase. Why can't we play older Pokemon games like we can play the other older Nintendo games? I don't understand this decision at all, but I still hope they will one day include Pokemon games on the Nintendo Switch Online apps. Regardless, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

New day, new post! The problem with anime these days is that it's become too popular. This means a lot of companies just see it as a way to make money, so streaming services will get exclusive series in hopes it'll be good enough to draw people in. This makes it difficult for anime fans to enjoy new or popular series because they can't afford to pay for another streaming service. I think this is unfair, especially since there are streaming services especially for anime so fans can access it more easily. I think it's fine if an anime is on multiple streaming services, but it's unfair when they're exclusive to one. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

It's post time! Many fans of Animal Crossing New Horizons have wondered where players get the books and magazines villagers are often seen reading. These are obtainable from Redd's Raffle on Harv's Island, and there are a few different versions you can get. There are five different books and four different magazines, and they can be used forever without breaking. You can get doubles, since it's random. However, you can also take the books and magazines to Cyrus, who is also on Harv's Island, and he'll customize them for you. These items are called the pocketbook and the pocket magazine, as well. They can be tedious to get because it's random, but being able to customize it makes it much easier to get them all. I wanted to talk about this since a lot of players still don't know where you can get them. As always, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

It's post time! For today's blog post, I will be talking about the Twisted Wonderland Nesoberi Mega plush. I was recently able to buy one of these, and it just arrived today so I wanted to talk about it. I obviously got the Lilia Vanrouge one, so that's what I'll be talking about. This plushie was quite a bit bigger than I expected, so that was a nice surprise. Most of it is dye-printed, which means the designs are dyed directly onto the fabric. It's extremely detailed as well, which was also a nice surprise. Even details that are hidden by his clothes were still included on the plushie. The fabric for his hair and face is soft, but the rest of it is mostly felt or a type of slippery fabric similar to an athletic jacket. His ears are pointed, but they're a little too round in my opinion. The biggest complaint I have with this plushie is that the streaks in his hair are vinyl. I really don't like this because vinyl always peels eventually. It would've been better to use fabric for it, especially since the streaks are much too light. They should be a darker pink than they actually are. This could be manually fixed with fabric, I just don't understand why they would use fabric and dye for everything else and then use this vinyl for the streaks. If they'd used actual fabric for it, he'd get a perfect score. But as it is, this plushie is an 8/10 for me. Especially since this plushie costs at least thirty dollars. As always, I'll be including a picture of the plushie below so you all can see what it looks like. Enjoy!
