Why do Sanrio fans want more merchandise for lesser known characters? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! Sanrio has a lot of different characters now, which means they have a Pokemon problem. The Pokemon problem is, there are so many to choose from that every Pokemon is someone's favorite Pokemon. Pokemon solves this by making merchandise for every single Pokemon. Is it a lot? Yes. Does it work? Also yes. But Sanrio doesn't do this. They only focus on making merchandise for their most popular characters because they make money. They'll occasionally make things like Sanrio Boys and Fragaria Memories to bring more people in, but those series also focus on the more popular characters. Not many people watch the animations, which is why characters like Lloromannic go unnoticed for so long. They were made for a show and didn't get much merchandise afterwards. However, this is also why it was such a surprise for Berry and Cherry to be chosen for the Build-A-Bear Halloween line this year. The game Hello Kitty Dream Village does a better job of including lesser known characters, but it doesn't have as much of a fan base right now. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

It's post time! For today's blog post, I will be talking about eyebrows in Animal Crossing New Horizons. Now, this may seem like a silly topic. But if you've played this game, you've probably noticed there are no eyebrows. Despite this, some players have eyebrows. This is because they made them with the custom face paint. This is very clever, but it does mean you can't put anything else on your face as long as you have eyebrows. Which seems very silly to me. The face paint is also very oddly limited, so you can't put the eyebrows close enough to the eyes. It takes a bit of trial and error to get them just right. Along with this, certain eyebrow shapes look weird because of the limitations. For example, I was making cute anime style angry eyebrows for my character, but they look strange unless I give my character glasses. Otherwise the eyebrows sit too high up on the face and they look wrong. I'm sure many other players have had this issue, and I wish the face paint wasn't so limited. I can't even give my character dark shadows under the eyes, even though I almost always give my characters that in everything else. Even Hello Kitty Dream Village has options for dark circles under the eyes, which you can get from certain events, and that game is very bright and colorful. It just shows you how much Animal Crossing New Horizons is missing even now. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

Berry and Cherry have arrived at Build-A-Bear! That's right, the troublemaking Sanrio duo Lloromannic are now plushies! I'm very excited to see this, since I just recently talked about how I believe they deserve more merchandise. They've been released for Halloween, along with a special Cinnamoroll Halloween plush. They're all pretty expensive with clothes, but you can also buy each plush without the clothes. With clothes, the plushies are $52.50 each. Without clothes, they're $38 each. Either way, it would cost quite a lot to get all three plushies, or even just getting Berry and Cherry would be a lot. However, this is normal for Build-A-Bear, and I still consider this a win for these underrated characters. As always, I'll be including a picture of these three plushies from the Build-A-Bear website below. Enjoy!

Will Hello Kitty Dream Village ever add more Sanrio characters? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! For those of you who don't know, there's only a small amount of Sanrio characters in Hello Kitty Dream Village. These characters can be your buddy, or you can do quests for them. Despite this, there aren't very many to choose from. However, you can get items, furniture, and clothes that show other Sanrio characters. There's even a Fragaria Memories gacha available right now, and there have been other gacha banners and events that are for other characters that aren't in the game in the past. But, I don't think this means they'll ever add another buddy character. It would just take too much work. It's easy to have other Sanrio characters appear on items and clothes, but it's way more difficult to add them as full characters. I understand why this is, even if players would rather have more characters. Regardless, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

 It's time to post! Recently people have been talking about games that are better than Animal Crossing. However, this opinion is subjective. There may be games that are better, but that can be said about any game. I know fans of Animal Crossing are bitter because New Horizons updates don't improve the game very much, and it's completely understandable if they want to find better games to play. But that doesn't mean they have to ruin it for people who do enjoy the game. Animal Crossing has always been a popular series, so there are a lot of fans. Disliking the most recent game in the series doesn't give anyone the right to spoil it for everyone else. You can like other similar games without talking about how much better it is than Animal Crossing. Cozy games like this are common these days, and each one should be seen as an individual instead of being compared to others all the time. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

Why did the Pokemon anime use Team Rocket as the antagonists so often? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! In the original anime, Team Rocket was always the main villains. But in the games, there were a lot of different antagonists. The anime followed the games when it came to locations and traveling companions, but they kept the same protagonists and antagonists. Why is this? Well, mostly because they were popular and recognizable. The anime felt familiar as long as there were still main characters fans could recognize. This meant they could go for a long time without watching the show without feeling like they missed anything. Along with this, Ash, Pikachu, and Team Rocket were pretty much the whole show. People who watched it usually watched it to see them. Since the show has moved on from them, there are less people watching it. This isn't a coincidence, it's because people who grew up with the anime wanted it to stay the same. It was comforting, even if other things changed. So even if there were other characters and other antagonists, at the center of it, everything was always the same. 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 Sanrio fans give up playing Hello Kitty Dream Village because it's hard to get coins and gacha tickets to play the gacha. I can understand why this would be frustrating, so for today's blog post I'd like to talk about how to get them. Firstly, coins can come from doing favors for characters, logging in everyday, throwing parties, and attending parties. But wait! Parties take three hours and cost fruit! No problem! You can attend multiple parties and throw your own party all at the same time; and you can even leave the parties to do other tasks or close the game entirely. Along with this, you can harvest fruit from your neighbors if your flowers haven't bloomed yet. You can also sometimes get fruit from completing tasks, but visiting neighbors is much easier and more reliable. You can get gacha tickets from completing tasks and playing the Dream Boutique mini game, too. There are actually a lot of ways to get coins and gacha tickets, so don't give up so easily! Coins can also be used to buy things from the My Character Shop if you're against the gacha system. However, it costs a lot more, and there aren't as many options. Regardless of what you're interested in, it isn't as difficult to get clothes and items as a lot of people make it sound. It just takes a bit of work. Regardless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!
