It's post time! In Animal Crossing New Horizons, you can make and buy Medicine. This medicine is used for wasp stings, but it can also be given to sick villagers. However, I think it would've been a nice detail if the player character could get sick too. For example, if they were in the rain for too long, then they would be sick the next day. They would look sick and occasionally sneeze, and the player could either cure themself with medicine, or talk to a villager and be given medicine. This would be a good way to add another use for the medicine, and it would make the game a little more realistic. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. It may be an odd thing to want in a game, but I think it would be a nice addition as a small way to teach consequences. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

3, 2, 1, post time! Food is a big part of any culture, so it's common to see Japanese foods in anime, manga, and videogames. Because of this, people outside of Japan may not recognize popular Japanese foods. So for today's blog post, I'll be listing five Japanese foods commonly seen in anime. I'll also be giving a short explanation of what they are. Now then, on with the list! Enjoy!
1.) Dorayaki - Soft honey pancakes with a sweet filling in-between.
2.) Ramen - Noodle soup often topped with things like meat, vegetables, or eggs.
3.) Taiyaki - Fish shaped bread, typically with a sweet filling.
4.) Mochi - Soft, round, rice desserts traditionally filled with red bean paste, but can also be stuffed with other things like chocolate or ice cream.
5.) Purin - The Japanese version of something similar to flan, it's a sweet custard topped with caramel sauce.

It's post time! Recently I've noticed a problem with series and games that run for a long time. After a while, it feels like you don't know anything about it anymore. If you take a break from something or can't keep up with it for some reason, you're left behind. Then the more lost you are, the harder it is to get back into it. You can't just jump right in because you've already missed so much. It makes it hard to enjoy things even if you used to love them. It's difficult to find a balance between being an active fan and not getting burned out. I wanted to talk about this because I've noticed I've been missing out on a lot of things even if I take short breaks. It's hard not to feel overwhelmed when there's always more that needs to be caught up to. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

New day, new post! Creating new characters has always been really common in the anime community. So for today's blog post, I would like to give some advice on how to make one of my favorite character types: the lazy one! Lazy characters are usually burned out or naturally laid-back. So to create one, their appearance usually makes it obvious what their personality will be. They usually wear comfortable clothes like hoodies, sweatpants, t-shirts, shorts, or pajamas. If they have accessories, it's usually something like a sleep mask, a scarf, or a pillow. Their eyes are usually half closed, and they don't smile very often. Along with this, they usually have messy hair that's either short or layered. It's common to see characters who look like this, but for today's example I'll be including a picture of Belphegor from Obey Me below. Enjoy!

It's post time! To help celebrate the 30th anniversary, Pokemon has released free phone wallpapers. They can be downloaded on the official Pokemon website, as well. They're a bit simple, but they're also kind of cluttered. They include a lot of different Pokemon so they look a little overwhelming. However, I think they're a nice gift for Pokemon fans. There's seven in total, and there's a few different designs. As always, I will be including the link for the official website below for anyone who wants to download these wallpapers. Enjoy!

New day, new post! Since plushies have always been popular with anime fans, it isn't a surprise that Pokemon plushies are some of the most popular ones. There are a lot of different types of Pokemon plushies, but I think there could be more. I think it would be fun to see Pokemon plushies that are made based on their type. For example, fire-type Pokemon plushies could be heated plushies, and rock-type plushies could be weighted plushies. Ice-type plushies could be cold plushies, grass-type plushies could be floral scented, and so on. I think this would be really creative, and I'm sure it would be popular with Pokemon fans. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

It's post time! The games Undertale and Deltarune have always been popular in their own way, but they've also always been popular with anime fans. This is because both games have a lot of anime themes and references in them. This makes it easy for anime fans to find the easter eggs, which makes playing them more rewarding for these fans. I think these games are good choices for anime fans, especially since they have a large fan base even in Japan. It's easy to find anime fan art for Undertale and Deltarune, too. Because of this, I think anime fans should play at least one of these games at some point. However, they're both good games even without the included anime references. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!
