Why do anime fans dislike live action remakes? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! A lot of anime fans don't like live action versions of anime series for a few reasons. First of all, a lot of people watch anime because it's anime. Anime has a really good art style that many people love, so making it live action ruins that. It's also difficult to recreate many scenes in a way that makes it look as good as it did in animation. Live action versions are also just unnecessary. Why make the same thing twice? Along with this, a lot of live action projects are just cheap cash grabs being made by people who don't watch, like, or appreciate the original source material. It's almost always awful and most of them are just trying to get money from something that already has fans. I'm looking at you, Netflix Death Note. Anime fans like anime because it's anime, not because we secretly want to watch real people try to cosplay as the thing we'd rather be watching. I think companies should just give up the live action thing and just let us enjoy things as they are. 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 Pokemon games. Since Pokemon has been around for a long time now, the games have gotten a bit confusing. So, I'll explain. With Pokemon games, there are mainline games, and spin-off games. Mainline games are story-based and usually take a lot longer to make. Spin-off games are more for exploring the world instead. There are spin-off games that are like mainline games, since they have a similar format but are set in different time periods or alternate universes. There's more to it than this, but these are the basics, so I'll end it here. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

It's post time! Since today is Friday the 13th again, I'd like to talk about Pokemon. Since there aren't really any bad luck Pokemon, I think it would be a good idea if ghost-type Pokemon were more common on Friday the 13th. It would make sense for ghost-type Pokemon to become more common on days associated with bad luck, especially since a lot of ghost Pokemon are associated with superstitions and causing mischief. Although I'd like to see actual bad luck Pokemon, I don't think that'll happen any time soon. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

Was Harv's Island unnecessary in Animal Crossing New Horizons? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! Harv's Island is where all of the shops that aren't on your island are. However, I think it wasn't needed. There's more than enough space on the main island for these shops. But even if you don't want them all at once, they could switch out throughout the week. You could have a few shops on your island at a time, one building with multiple shops, or even just all of the shops at once. But instead, you have to fly to a different island every time you need anything from a different shop. It's a waste of time, and it's extremely tedious. Because of this, I think Harv's Island shouldn't have existed. Especially since the creators could've just made the main island bigger if they were worried the shops would take up too much space. 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 items in Animal Crossing New Horizons. One of my biggest pet peeves with this game is items that have different colors, but can't be customized normally. There are items in the game that come in different colors, but the colors can't be changed at a regular workbench. Instead, you either have to wait for the different color to pop up in the store, which is basically not ever going to happen, or you have to buy it and take it to Cyrus on Harv's Island. This is so frustrating because it means you have to go all the way to a different island every time you want something in a different color. You can almost never just buy it that way, and you can't do it yourself either. I don't understand why we can customize some things and not others. It makes no sense and it would've been easier to just make everything like this customizable. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

It's post time! One of the things fans were looking forward to with the newest Animal Crossing New Horizons update was the possibility of more custom design slots. There's a surprisingly small amount of custom design spaces in this game. Since they only cover one tile when you use them for your island, many things require multiple custom design spaces to make one full design. This means you can run out of spaces extremely fast. Not only this, but you can run out of custom clothing spaces pretty fast too. But unfortunately, we weren't given more design slots. In fact, fans didn't get very much of anything with the update, and we likely won't get anything else since Nintendo is pushing the next game in the series instead. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

What is heterochromia? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! This is something that's somewhat common to see in anime, since it's a good way to make a character stand out. Heterochromia is when each eye is a different color. It's a real condition, but you'll see it much more often in anime than you will in real life. Characters with different colored eyes are usually very popular, since it's a popular design choice. It's a good way to make a character look unique, so many artists like to give their characters these eyes. As always, here's a picture of Obanai Iguro from Demon Slayer as an example. Enjoy!
