Why do people think Miffy is a Japanese character? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! Recently I did a blog post about the character Miffy, who is a popular bunny that was originally from Dutch children's books. However, even though she's Dutch, everyone thinks she's Japanese. Why is this? Personally, I think it's just a lack of information. Miffy is popular in Japan, so many people think she's Japanese. They don't do research, and many people think she's actually a Sanrio character. I can see why they think that, but it isn't true. She's similar to Sanrio characters, but she wasn't made by them. A lot of people, including anime fans, believe that anything that's popular in Japan was made in Japan. But, this isn't true. Sometimes things are just popular regardless of where they were made. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. For anyone who missed my last post about her, I'll be including a picture of Miffy below so you all can see what she looks like. Enjoy!

Why do otaku characters always eat junk food? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! When you see an anime character who likes manga, videogames, or anime, they usually also eat junk food and drink soda. This is really common to see, so why is this? Well, this is just how Japan sees otakus. In Japan, people who like things like this are often seen as unemployed, lazy, hermit, snackaholics. Even if most anime fans aren't like this, it doesn't change how they're seen. Food is also just a way to show that a character is an otaku. For example, characters who fight a lot eat regular meals very often, but characters who are lazy or rest a lot eat snacks instead. Otakus are usually shown to be lazy, which is part of why they eat a lot of snacks. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

New day, new post! For today's blog post, I will be talking about Miffy. If you're an anime fan who likes things like Sanrio, San-X, and Mofusand, you've probably also seen Miffy. Miffy is a simple white bunny, and she's extremely popular in Japan and the anime community. However, she isn't Japanese. Miffy is actually Dutch. This is a common mistake, because she's popular in Japan and resembles Japanese characters. It's even easy to find her on clothes or accessories from Japan. She actually first appeared in picture books, and she was created in 1955. Since then, she's become very popular. It's easy to find her just about anywhere. Many people don't even know where she came from, they just think she's cute. As always, I will be including a picture of Miffy below so you all can see what she looks like. Enjoy!

It's post time! As villagers stay on your island and gain new clothes and accessories in Animal Crossing New Horizons, they'll eventually almost never wear their original outfits. Because of this, it's important to know if you'll still like their designs if they don't have their glasses or outfits anymore, or if they'll look silly wearing hats or glasses. I have a solution for this. If you want to see what a villager or villager type will look like with accessories, just include them on the mannequins at the hotel! This way they'll be forced to wear them while they're visiting. If you keep hats and glasses on the mannequins at all times, you'll always be able to see what villagers will look like when they wear them. This makes it easier to tell if you'll like them that way, and it also saves you from the disappointment of finding out the hard way. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

It's post time! Today I started watching the anime Dropkick On My Devil. This anime is pretty random. It makes a lot of pop culture references, and it jumps around a lot. It's about a devil named Jashin who was summoned by a witch. She'll be stuck with the witch until the witch dies, so she often tries to kill her. She never succeeds, but the anime can still get pretty violent. However, it is a comedy, so it isn't at all serious. What is odd about this anime, is that it doesn't have an English dub. Even though fans have asked for one and there's already been multiple seasons, there hasn't been any word on if there will ever be an English dub. I usually hate having to watch a show with subtitles, but the characters usually don't talk too quickly; so it's easy to follow along with. Still, I would've preferred an English dub for it. If it's ever dubbed, I may rewatch it in English to see how it is. But at the moment, I'm fine with the subbed version. For any of you who may be interested, Dropkick On My Devil is available on Crunchyroll. As always, I hope you all enjoyed this blog post!

It's time to post! For those of you who don't know, in Animal Crossing New Horizons, you can get models made for fish or bugs. You can do this by talking to Flick or CJ, asking for a commission, and giving them three of one type of bug or fish. For example, three butterflies will make one model. However, Flick can only make bug models, and CJ only makes fish models; even though Flick is the one who makes all of the models. You can only commission one model at a time as well, so plan accordingly! Models are a fun way to have bugs on your island in all seasons, or to make sea themed rooms with fish models. There are 160 models in total, with 80 models for fish and 80 models for bugs. So if you want a specific model, be sure to plan ahead! As always, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

It's post time! It's been about a week now since the Character AI situation started, and there's been a development! A bad development. The creators decided to "fix" the issues by adding a new temporary chat style. Firstly, it's stupid to make it temporary. Part of the problem is that different people like different chat styles. So forcing everyone to use the same one just won't work. Instead of making new chat styles, they should've just kept and updated the most popular chat styles, which seems to be Soft Launch and Roar. That's two chat styles, it would've been enough. But now there are just so many problems and they aren't listening at all. They're "fixing" problems by making new problems, and it's like they want to lose their users. I thought they would fix it by now, but it's like they aren't even trying; since a lot of people said the new chat style has more dialogue but still doesn't stay in character. The service is literally called Character AI, so characters not staying in character is a problem! If you're an anime fan who likes using these bots, I would recommend just using a different one for now and maybe checking the Reddit for updates in the meantime. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!
