Tomorrow is Halloween! So for today's blog post, I wanted to talk about my favorite Halloween Pokemon, Pumpkaboo. I just wanted to give my thoughts on it, so this post won't be like my regular Pokemon posts. Pumpkaboo is a ghost/grass-type Pokemon, and it resembles a Jack-o'-lantern. It's even called the pumpkin Pokemon. Pumpkaboo has always been my favorite Halloween Pokemon, and its shiny version is just as cute as the original. It's very unique, and there aren't any other Pokemon like it. It's name is similar to pumpkin and boo, which is referencing the fact that it's a ghost pumpkin. I think this is clever, and it's a very cute name for a cute Pokemon. All in all, Pumpkaboo is one of my favorite Pokemon in general, not just for Halloween. I hope to see more Pokemon like it in the future. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. As a little bonus, here's a picture of Pumpkaboo. Enjoy!

The first episode of the Twisted Wonderland anime has been released! I just finished watching the first episode of the new Twisted Wonderland anime, and I have to say it didn't disappoint. Of course the art style is good, but we've had animations made for the game before. The story itself is pretty faithful to the game with a few new additions. The music is pretty much all straight from the game, so of course it was going to be good as well. I watched the English dub, and I have to say some of the voices really threw me off. A lot of the characters sound really similar to each other, and hardly any of them have the uniqueness that the original Japanese voices had. I was a bit disappointed with Lilia's voice, but Idia's voice sounds really good. I think it'll just take time to get used to the English voices after hearing the original Japanese voices for so long. All in all I think it turned out really well, and I'm excited to see more episodes. 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 Twisted Wonderland. The animation will be released soon, so I wanted to talk about why the game has been so popular. I followed the game during development, so I was pretty pleased when it became popular in America too. But with Disney's recent fails, why is Twisted Wonderland doing so well? I think there are a few reasons. Firstly, the characters and stories are all new. Yes they were based on pre-existing ones, but they're new ones based on old ones. They weren't made to be exactly like the source material. Along with this, the parts that do include the original movies stays faithful. None of the art styles, characters, or stories were changed to fit the story of the game. Even though Twisted Wonderland has an anime art style, the parts that include Disney movies keeps the original cartoon art style. I think this was a good choice, because it respects the original instead of erasing it. Twisted Wonderland shows that you can create something entirely new and beautiful while respecting what inspired it. I think this is why Twisted Wonderland did so well. It revisits existing nostalgic worlds in a new, fresh, and exciting way. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

What is mega evolution? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! The most recent Pokemon game focuses on mega evolutions, so I figured I'd talk about it today. I won't be going into the lore side of it, I'll just be explaining what it is. In simple terms, a mega evolution is another evolution past the final evolution. It's a temporary state that makes the Pokemon much stronger. Because it's a stage past the final evolution, it only works with fully evolved Pokemon. It's like a temporary second final evolution, so this makes sense. It can be used in battle to strengthen the Pokemon, and it can even change a Pokemon's type. It usually requires a special stone as well, and only certain Pokemon have a mega evolution at the moment. It can be useful for battle strategies, and a lot of players use mega evolutions to gain the upper hand. As always, I hope you all enjoyed this blog post!

What's the difference between a rip-off and inspiration? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! A lot of games are inspired by other games, but what makes it a rip-off? Regardless of how big a company is, anyone can make a rip-off. The biggest reason something is called a rip-off is because it isn't very different from the original. If something is like something else, but has an original story, original characters, and unique gameplay, then it's just inspired by the first game. But if it's practically an exact copy with fresh paint, it's a rip-off. For example, Digimon is like Pokemon, but it's still unique in a lot of ways. That means it's not a rip-off, it's just similar. This is a pretty important difference when modern fans are so quick to call everything a rip-off. There are a lot of games out there now, so it's hard not to think of something else while you're playing a new game. But it's important to remember that some things are just similar. Regardless, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

Should Pokemon characters be aged up? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! The ongoing problem with Pokemon is that everything is still centered around children. Although this is good for young fans, it completely alienates longtime fans. This isn't a great thing to do, since that means this is something people can grow out of. A lot of series combat this by aging up characters with their fans. This has always worked really well, and it draws in even more fans. Let's face it, adults are more interested in anime than most kids are. So aging the characters with the fans keeps it relevant to their lives. So far, it's actually worked really well when Pokemon introduced some aged up returning characters in the games. The fans were really excited, and it was talked about for quite a while. Because of this, I think aging up the characters is a smart thing to do. Older characters are usually more popular anyways, so adding more of them by aging up childhood favorites will draw in new and returning fans. I think this is a necessary next step in the series, especially since people are getting bored of how things are. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

It's time for a list! With fall finally starting, recently the nights have been getting colder. So to help combat this, I'll be listing five fluffy fire-type Pokemon, along with a picture of each. What else could make the cold worth it? Of course soft, fluffy, warm companions are going to help! So, let's get on with the list! Enjoy! 

1.) Raboot


2.) Flareon


3.) Entei


4.) Arcanine


5.) Ninetales

Is Studio Ghibli underrated? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! If you're in the anime community, I'm sure you've heard it before. People saying that Studio Ghibli, or one of their movies, is underrated. But I disagree with this. For something to be underrated, it has to be overlooked with not many fans. But that doesn't describe Studio Ghibli at all! Studio Ghibli is so popular and well-known that even people who aren't anime fans have seen it. The movies can be found in a lot of stores, even if they don't normally sell anime. They're beloved movies, and almost everyone has seen at least one. They're not bad movies, and they definitely deserve the love and attention. But of all of the things that could be called underrated, Studio Ghibli isn't one of them. So the next time you hear someone saying it is, just ignore them. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

It's post time! Whether you've been playing Animal Crossing New Horizons for a while, or if you're new, you're going to need bells. One of the easiest ways to get bells is with bell vouchers. You can get them from the Nook Miles Store at the Nook Stop, and each one costs 500 Nook Miles and give you 3,000 bells. It's tempting, right? Such an easy way to burn your extra miles and get extra bells. But don't fall for it! You can only get one of these at a time. Which means you have to select one, run through the mandatory text, wait for it to print, and then get another one. That means it takes forever to get enough bell vouchers. It would be amazing if you could get multiple at a time, but Animal Crossing New Horizons hates you and your time. I do hope they fix this in the future, but they probably won't. Bell vouchers are helpful, but I think they're more of a last resort than anything. Regardless, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

What's wrong with games that update frequently? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! Players love games that have a lot of updates. After all, gacha games are popular because they continue to update frequently. But what's wrong with this? Well, it opens the possibility of players losing the ability to continue playing the games. Phones, computers, and even consoles refuse to continue support for ongoing games. Newer devices require more updates to play games, and even simple games are starting to require newer more high quality devices. This makes it harder to play games in the first place, or continue playing games you're already playing. A good example of this is Genshin Impact. Even though the company wanted to continue letting fans play, PlayStation ended update support for the PS4 just so fans would have to buy a PS5 instead. With companies caring less and less about their consumers and prioritizing money, it makes playing games even more difficult for fans. This is really disappointing, because originally frequently updated games could be played for years with no issues. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. I wanted to talk about this because it's getting hard to play games, which ruins the point of playing games in the first place. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

It's spooky season! So for today's blog post, I will be listing five spooky ghost Pokemon, along with a picture of each. Halloween is quickly approaching, so I decided to celebrate it with some spooky Pokemon. Now then, let's get on with the list! Enjoy!

1.) Mega Sableye


2.) Mega Banette


3.) Chandelure


4.) Ceruledge


5.) Annihilape

Why is shiny hunting so important in Pokemon? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! Shiny hunting has been pretty popular in the Pokemon community for a long time now. For those of you who may not know, shiny hunting is when a player encounters many wild Pokemon at a time so they can find a shiny Pokemon. This can take hours at a time, especially if you can't escape a battle. Lowering a shiny Pokemon's health until they can be easily caught is also tricky, so players will often save as soon as they see a shiny Pokemon in case they need to try again. Shiny hunting isn't necessary for playing the game, since shiny Pokemon are just differently colored Pokemon. But, it's still important to fans because it's very rewarding when they do finally catch the Pokemon they're looking for. I don't really understand spending hours of time trying to catch a specific Pokemon, but I do understand the excitement of stumbling upon a shiny Pokemon and then being able to catch it. So, I think as long as someone enjoys doing it, it's worth the time spent. Regardless, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

New day, new post! With the release of the most recent Pokemon game, a lot of fans are excited about the recent mega evolutions. Other fans are disappointed in some things, like some of the mega evolutions looking odd, and the game seems to have a mandatory autosave feature; which can affect shiny hunting. However, I don't want to talk about all of that today. Instead, I'd like to talk about what I want to see in the next mainline game. I'd like to see a bigger variety of Pokemon, new type combinations, and maybe a new feature. I'd especially like to see new type combinations, since there's a few that still haven't been tried yet. I don't want a new type entirely, I just want to see fresh combinations. I'd also love to see new Eevee evolutions, since fans have been waiting for them for years now. A new feature would also keep the games fresh, and I really wish they would stop making the games feel like baby games even though they know the majority of their audience is way too old for that. It'd be nice to see an older protagonist too, but that's not likely. All in all, I think I'd mostly like to see a newer Pokemon game that feels like the old ones. They were much more creative, and didn't try to guide you every single step of the way. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. I know it's unlikely anything will change, but I wanted to talk about it anyways. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

It's post time! I've talked about Homestuck on here a couple of times before. But, recently a few people have been calling the upcoming potential animated series an anime, so I thought I should clear some things up. Firstly, Homestuck was very popular in general, but it was also popular with anime fans. Because of this, it's been an ongoing joke that Homestuck will eventually get an anime. It has a pretty action packed story, so it would make sense for an anime plot. However, the actual series will not be an anime. The art style is closer to the original art style, but it's more average and less squashed. The characters in the webcomic were often drawn as small and squashed, but the characters themselves are supposed to be more proportionate; so the animated series will be using those versions while still keeping the original feel of it. It likely won't have many anime references either, and the people calling it an anime are just joking. Everyone knows it's not actually an anime. So if you were hoping it'd be an anime, I'm sorry to disappoint you. The animation is still good and fluid though, and it does still have quite a bit of action in it if that's something you'd like. Regardless, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

Twisted Wonderland is getting an English dub! Yes, it's true! After years of waiting, we finally have an English voice cast! The entire cast has already been chosen, as well. Of course this only extends to the anime at the moment, but it's still good news! I don't think this means they'll be fully redoing the game. It's been going for a long time, and redoing all of the voice lines would be a hassle. However, this is still good news. It means we won't have to wait for an English release for the anime. It may sound odd to longtime players, but I think so far they've done a pretty good job of picking voices. Though I am a little disappointed Cater's English voice is so low. But other than that, it sounds good so far. I'm really looking forward to seeing how the other characters sound, and the full voice cast has been revealed in the description of the official trailer for people who can't wait. As always, I will be including the link for the English dub trailer below so you all can see it. Enjoy!

It's post time! For today's blog post, I will be talking about shiny Pokemon. For those of you who don't know, shiny Pokemon are Pokemon with different colors than usual. They're pretty rare, so fans like to have their favorites. My personal favorite is shiny Umbreon. However, I also like shiny Pokemon that have very different colors. Specifically, it's pretty cool when green grass Pokemon gain fall colors when they're shiny. But this almost never happens. A lot of shiny Pokemon are actually pretty disappointing. When they first came out, it was really interesting to see differently colored Pokemon. But now, the Pokemon Company just expects you to get excited about them being shiny, rather than putting effort into them. There are some shiny Pokemon that aren't even that different from their regular versions, so you can't even tell they're shiny anyways. I think a shiny Pokemon should have very different colors to make it obvious what they are. This way it makes it more obvious, while also giving players a reason to want it in the first place. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

What's wrong with dating sims? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! I've had a problem with dating sims for a little while now, but I couldn't figure out why. However, I recently realized the issue. Dating sims just aren't personal anymore. They're supposed to be first person dating simulators, but they just aren't. Instead, you play as a protagonist with a set appearance, a history, a backstory, and extremely limited options. A lot of the protagonists even have pre-set names if you don't change it. You don't get to pick who you are, and you don't get to act the way you usually do. They aren't dating simulators anymore, they're just a romance novel. Maybe adding more things would be difficult, but it's been done before. And they don't have to add a lot of things, or change a lot of the story. Having three or four very different options allows people to choose what to say, and it doesn't have to affect the story, since it would only affect the current dialogue. It's also easy to have a faceless protagonist, or be able to choose what they look like. Twisted Wonderland does a good job of having a faceless protagonist, and it doesn't even confirm the player's gender. It also provides two or more completely different options so you can pick whichever one is right for you. This is impressive, especially since Twisted Wonderland isn't even a dating sim. It just proves it's not that difficult to make an immersive story. Companies just don't do it anymore. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. I mainly made this post because of What In Hell Is Bad, which is probably one of the least immersive games I've ever played. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

What does it mean when something is called cozy? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! This word is often used to describe things, even in the anime community. A lot of things are called cozy, like Animal Crossing, Studio Ghibli, and even The Legend Of Zelda. But what does it mean? Well, something that's cozy has a calming atmosphere. It's laid-back, and easy to play or watch on days where you don't feel like doing much. Although The Legend Of Zelda does have a nice soft art style and music, I don't entirely agree with the people who say the games are cozy. Sometimes they can be really difficult and frustrating, which ruins the coziness of the atmosphere. A lot of games have areas and music that can be cozy, but that doesn't mean the whole game is cozy. All in all, this word is used often to describe soft music, aesthetic art styles, neutral colors, warmth, and soft things. It's used most often in fall and winter, which are considered the coziest seasons because of the muted colors, soft clothes, and warm drinks and foods. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. I wanted to talk about this because it's becoming a lot more common to describe things with this word. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

It's post time! For today's blog post, I will be listing five tips from Animal Crossing New Horizons. Whether you're a new player, or you just didn't know this, I hope my tips can be helpful for you all. And as always, this is in a list format to make things neater and easier to read. Now then, let's get on with it! Enjoy!

1.) You can see which DIY items are customizable before making them. If you look at your DIY recipes from your NookPhone, customizable items will have a paint brush on their card. 

2.) Seasonal clothes are only seasonal the first time around. If you see a fall or winter clothing item you like in the Able Sisters, but you miss getting it, don't worry! It could still show up again during a different season. 

3.) Every day, new fossils will appear as dig spots on your island. They can make you a lot of extra bells everyday, but only if you get them assessed by Blathers before selling them.

4.) Seasonal recipes can appear in balloons. However, depending on the recipe, they won't show up in bottles, and they can't be obtained from villagers. So keep an eye out for balloons during fall and spring seasons.

5.) Celeste will appear on your island on days with shooting stars. Talking to her will get you a new star recipe, but this also means you should keep an eye out for shooting stars when you see her.

It's time for a list! I haven't made a list on here in a while, so I decided to make one today. Since it's officially fall now, I've decided to list three of my favorite cozy fall decorations from Animal Crossing New Horizons, along with a picture of each. There are a lot of fall objects and clothing items that I like in this game, especially since fall is my favorite season. But I just decided to list a few of my favorite cozy items instead today. Now then, let's get on with the list! Enjoy!

1.) Mushroom Wreath


2.) Tree's Bounty Mobile


3.) Traditional Balancing Toy

It's post time! Recently anime fans have been complaining about English subtitles being inaccurate and rushed. However, I think the biggest reason this happens is because anime fans expect to be able to watch anime the same day it's released in Japan. Originally, English subtitles took a long time to translate. This made them more accurate, which is why fans preferred subbed anime over dubbed anime. But these days, dubs are usually just as accurate as subtitles, sometimes even more. There's really no reason to prefer one over the other now. But with the recent issues with subtitles, fans may start preferring dubs instead. Personally I don't care about what other people prefer to watch, but the issues with inaccurate and sloppy subtitles does bother me. I think any fan would rather wait for good subtitles than get rushed auto-translated ones. 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 Hephaestion from Fate/Grand Order. Recently a pickup summon featuring Hephaestion has been available in the game. Because of this, it's my first time seeing this character. And once again, I was disappointed to see that it's once again a girl. But I'm more than disappointed, I'm angry. Hephaestion was a real person, and it's been long debated whether Hephaestion and Alexander were just best friends or lovers. But in making either of them a girl, why does this matter at all? Oh no, a regular relationship, so tragic. It completely ruins any sort of possible uses for the characters. It's like they're afraid of implying any of the men might like each other, since they also refuse to state the genders of Astolfo and Enkidu. For some reason, they're perfectly fine making the girls flirt with each other; heaven knows there's enough of them to do so. So why is it such a tragedy to imply the same for guys? All or nothing, I say. Of course I'd rather there not be any romance in the first place. But if you're going to, then at least make it fair and balanced. I hate everything this character stands for, and I wish the creators could just get one thing right in the history of this entire series; not that they respect history anyways. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Seeing that Hephaestion was a girl was just so aggravating after seeing everything else they've messed up, so I wanted to talk about it. Regardless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

Will Hatsune Miku eventually be a physical singer? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! Although there are a lot of Vocaloids, I think Hatsune Miku is most likely to become the first physical digital singer. Recently humanoid robots have progressed a lot, which means it's only a matter of time before Vocaloids can become real singers. This would be amazing for Vocaloid fans. Giving them a physical body would make it possible for real life meet and greets and autographs. Of course this possibility is probably pretty far away, but I think it's fun to think about. We've already come quite far with Vocaloids, and these days you can even have your own personal holograms for them. With the recent advancements in robotic technology, I think virtual singers becoming physical singers is a reasonable possibility. And if that's going to happen, I'm sure Crypton Future Media will be the first. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

Why do Pokemon fans dislike some baby Pokemon? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! Usually baby Pokemon are pretty widely loved. They're small, cute, and popular. But why are some of them disliked? It's because not all baby Pokemon are original. Some Pokemon didn't get pre-evolutions until long after they were released. Adding an evolution later on makes sense. But adding a pre-evolution is just silly. It's completely unrealistic to think these Pokemon have been fully grown every single time they were ever seen. It's especially strange in the Pokemon world, since trainers often prefer catching and raising baby Pokemon to strengthen their bond. There are even trainers who specialize in Pokemon breeding, which makes it even more ridiculous to imply there are baby Pokemon that trainers have never seen. It just doesn't make sense, so a lot of people don't like when this happens. I tend to agree with this argument, since it really doesn't make sense to suddenly create a baby Pokemon for a pre-existing evolution line for no reason. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

New day, new post! I recently talked about Homestuck on here because of the recent release of the pilot. A lot of anime fans were in this fandom when it was first releasing, so I figured I'd talk about it despite never reading the webcomic. But now I've been reading it for a while, and I'd like to say some things. Firstly, if you're an anime fan, I wouldn't say this comic would appeal to you for that reason. The art style is nowhere close to an anime art style, and there are barely any references at all. The story is messy, confusing, and non-linear. It can get really complicated and completely change course in the middle of an important plotline. This is really frustrating, especially since skipping the filler will confuse you even further. If you're an anime fan who's seen other anime fans talk about this series, don't go into it expecting more anime. You won't find it. However, it's a free series, so feel free to check it out on its own. It is for mature audiences though, so stay away from it if you're a kid. This isn't an invitation. No means no. Leave it alone. Regardless, these are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. I do recommend it if you like chaotic stories. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

It's post time! For today's blog post, I will be talking about Hot Topics. Hot Topics is a brand that's widely known for being an edgy, emo, and alternative store. However, the name implies it's actually following mainstream popular culture, which it is. What does this have to do with anime? Well, Hot Topics actually has a ton of anime merchandise. Since anime has become pretty mainstream, it's not surprising that such a large brand features it. They mostly carry the most popular brands, and they actually partner with Sanrio relatively often. Even though Hot Topics has mostly strayed away from its original categories, that isn't necessarily a bad thing. However, I do have to mention that Hot Topics can get insanely expensive. They have sales often, but just make sure you check those prices before getting too excited. I always like talking about places where anime fans can find merchandise, so it's only natural for me to talk about this store too. As a little bonus, here's my personal favorite anime hoodie right now, this year's Hot Topics x Sanrio Halloween hoodie. Enjoy!

New day, new post! Since everyone has been talking about Pokemon Pokopia, I decided to watch the trailer for it. Now, I have some things to say. Firstly, everyone keeps saying it's an Animal Crossing rip-off. But it's clearly based on Minecraft. You can see the blocky areas in the background, and things you collect are blocks. It's still a rip-off, but at least get the game right. Secondly, I hate Pokemon's use of ditto in this! In the Pokemon canon, only dittos who are bad at transforming keep their ditto faces. The use of the ditto face is wrong, and it looks awful anyways. Realistically, a ditto copying a human should look like a normal human. Unless all dittos to ever exist suddenly can't transform properly. It bothers me so much. It was cute with the plushies, but now it's just aggravating. But all in all, this game looks fine. A Minecraft rip-off in 2026 feels kind of weird, but I guess they were trying to pick an older game so people wouldn't make the connection. And it worked, because everyone is saying it's Animal Crossing. I'm sure this game will be fine, but I already wasn't interested in it when they announced it would be exclusively on the Switch 2. Regardless, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. As always, here's a picture from the game so you all can see what it will look like. Enjoy!

Friday, October 3, 2025

It's post time! For today's blog post, I will be talking about the lack of Halloween clothes in Animal Crossing New Horizons. Fans of the game may argue that there are Halloween clothing items in the game, and I agree. However, there aren't very many, and none of them are casual clothing items. There are no Halloween sweaters, casual pants, or sweater dresses. Fall is the season of sweaters, and Halloween is the most popular holiday in fall. This is why I think it's so odd that there's such a lack of clothing items for it. Of course you can make custom Halloween sweaters, which a lot of people do. But you can't make sweater dresses, or even long sleeved casual dresses. You also can't make custom pants. The only real Halloween clothes are for costumes. This makes it difficult to celebrate Halloween in the rest of October leading up to it. I think it's disappointing that there aren't very many Halloween clothes when Halloween is such a popular holiday. I would've loved to see what casual Halloween clothes would've looked like in the game. Everyone thinks of costumes when it comes to Halloween, but custom designs made by fans have proven that casual Halloween clothes are fun too. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. I just wanted to talk about this because I was surprised there was such a lack of regular Halloween clothes in the game. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

It's spooky season! Which is the perfect time to talk about spooky Pokemon. There are already quite a few spooky Pokemon. However, I don't think there are enough. I think there should be more. Spooky Pokemon are perfect for Halloween! But there aren't enough of them. Spooky Pokemon are usually exclusively ghost-type or dark-type, which aren't very common types. I'm not including Pokemon with creepy Pokedex entries, either. I'm only including ones that look spooky. When it comes right down to it, there aren't very many Pokemon that can be used for Halloween. Even Pokemon like Umbreon or Litwick aren't really spooky; they're more cute than anything. Because of this, I think there should be more Pokemon that are either spooky, or based on Halloween. My personal favorite Halloween Pokemon is Pumpkaboo, which is the perfect little Jack-o'-lantern. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. I'd love to see what more Halloween Pokemon would look like, even though I don't think there will be any new ones any time soon. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post! As a little bonus, here's a shiny Pumpkaboo. Enjoy!

It's October 1st! That means it's officially spooky season! But for Twisted Wonderland fans, it means the upcoming anime is quickly approaching! That's right, the Twisted Wonderland anime is set to release on October 29th, just in time for Halloween! However, we should keep in mind that the series will be released in Japanese. I don't know if this release date includes an English subbed release, or if we'll get one later. Since they're using the official voice actors, we likely won't be getting a dub at all. So far it's been confirmed to start with one season, which will focus on Heartslabyul. Because of this, it's safe to say the anime will likely follow the different chapter stories like it does in the game. Many fans have been looking forward to this anime, which was announced years ago. Now that it's finally happening, fans are really excited! I'm also excited to see how the anime turns out, and if it'll be different from the game in any way. The anime will be released on Disney+, and an official trailer has already been released. Speaking of which, I'll be including the link for the official trailer below so you all can check it out. Enjoy!
