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!

It's time to post! Even though Animal Crossing games have always been popular, they aren't made to last. Animal Crossing has always been built on relationships with others and the community around them. But the company making the games doesn't value this message. Instead, they encourage players to abandon these relationships so they can play the next game. Everything you build, everyone you meet, and all of the bonds you create mean nothing in a game made to be temporary. These games aren't meant to be around for a long time. They're made to eventually bore you so you look forward to the next game in the series. Why does it matter who you get close with if this friendship will only be lost later? This game series could've been a beautiful experience. But instead, it's temporary. It's a distraction, an escape, and a temporary dream that's always going to end. This is upsetting because so much could have come from this series. But now, people can't wait to put it down and see what's going to come next. Regardless, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post.

It's post time! I don't often talk about electric-type Pokemon, so I wanted to talk about them today. Part of the reason I don't talk about electric-type Pokemon is because most of them I don't find interesting enough. However, I think they have potential. Using the electric-type could be a fun way to introduce Pokemon who can light up. Pokemon who can channel electricity in different colors, similar to colored lights. This would be really fun to see, and could introduce things like rave Pokemon, nightlight Pokemon, siren Pokemon, or really anything that could use colored lights. Electric-type Pokemon usually don't light up, which I think is a really big missed opportunity. I'd love to see some more creative designs for this type because there are so many things that could be done with it. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

Why don't Pokemon wear clothes? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! Sometimes Pokemon will wear cute clothes or accessories, but usually they don't. Obviously this is because most Pokemon are similar to animals. But there are other Pokemon who are more like humans. Despite this, those Pokemon usually evolve to look like they're wearing clothes. Because of this, it would be difficult for a Pokemon like that to wear regular clothes. They would have to have custom clothes made, which would make it difficult for trainers to get clothes for their Pokemon. It's just easier to put accessories on them and nothing else. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

Why do Pokemon fans usually dislike human-like Pokemon? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! Although there are some popular human-like Pokemon, for the most part fans often complain about them. I think this is because they're not human enough. They're like humans, but they aren't. They don't wear clothes, they don't speak, and they're forced to eat on the ground with the other Pokemon. I've always seen human-like Pokemon as something like a missing link. Since humans evolved from Pokemon, then human-like Pokemon are the step in-between. I think that's what the problem is. It's fine if they don't wear clothes, since they are still Pokemon. But, it feels like they should be able to speak like humans or eat with humans. Pokemon are already very smart, and human-like Pokemon are pretty much almost humans. But, 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 Nintendo gave Animal Crossing New Horizons fans a little surprise for the 25th anniversary. Everyone received a note and a special leaf statue in the game. This is nice, however, it feels a bit disappointing. I think the leaf statue should have at least said 25 on it somewhere so fans would remember what it was for. Instead it's just a giant green leaf that lights up. I feel like without the note, a lot of fans wouldn't see it as anything other than a leaf. There are so many things that could've been good for the 25th anniversary of Animal Crossing. 25 years is a long time! And all fans got was a leaf and a note. Even for really important things, somehow the creators still manage to fall short. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Hopefully fans can find ways to celebrate the anniversary on their own. As always, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post! Happy 25th Anniversary Animal Crossing!

New day, new post! Since new Pokemon are often being released whenever new games come out, I think fans would like to see darker Pokemon. Pokemon fans have gotten older, and more fans like to see more mature Pokemon designs. Ones that look cooler, have darker colors, and look more mature tend to be more popular with older fans than the softer and cuter ones. Personally I like a variety of different Pokemon and I usually prefer the cuter ones, but most fans aren't like that. Because of this, I think it would be a good idea for new ghost-type, dark-type, or poison-type Pokemon to be released. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

It's post time! After fully finishing the game John Doe +, I decided to come back to talk about it again. Before I only finished the original endings, now I have completed the full game. However, my opinion hasn't changed much. The last few endings are longer, but they're just as repetitive and they take ages to get. This is a bit frustrating, since the only change between them is how they end. I do like how they played out, even if they were repetitive. But I still think this game lacks content. The majority of the lore was added by the creator after the game came out, and it can't be found in the game at all. I understand the game is short, but since the creator has abandoned it a lot of newer fans won't understand anything. I suppose I'll raise my score to a 6/10, but I'm only adding one point for creativity. I'd also like to mention that my favorite ending was Ending 7: Dream Come True. It was just cute. 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! Recently I've been watching a few new anime series. So for today's blog post, I wanted to list three more I'd like to watch. I'm a bit tired, so it's a short list today. These are just a few of the ones I'm looking forward to watching some day. Now then, on with the list! Enjoy!

1.) Bungo Stray Dogs

2.) Delicious In Dungeon

 

3.) The Apothecary Diaries

It's post time! Since I said before I would talk about the indie games I wanted to play if I played them, today I will be talking about John Doe. First of all, I know this game can't be downloaded at this time. The creator has fully taken it down, which I'll be talking about more later. However, I managed to download John Doe +, which was lucky. John Doe + is considered the full game because it has seven endings in total; while the original only had four endings. This game still has a large fan base, which is part of why I wanted to play it. However, after playing it, it's actually a bit disappointing. The game is extremely short and repetitive. The only way to get new endings is to play through the same day over and over. The main dialogue barely changes at all, and the only change is the endings. It's hard to get them all at once because the repeating day is only about five minutes long, and there are barely any options. It's easy to get repeat endings without a guide, but with a guide this game can be finished in under an hour. It's had no new content since the plus update, and the creator has abandoned it entirely. This happens, and I'm not very surprised. But I do disagree with their decision to punish all of their fans by taking the downloads down and telling fans not to reupload or share it if they already have it. I've never seen a creator punish their loyal fans like this, and honestly I don't see why there are still fans after this. I think I would've liked the game better if the creator had handled the situation in a more mature way. But as it is, the creator is immature and the game lacks content. If you haven't had the chance to play it yourself, I recommend reading or watching someone else's playthrough. This game is a 5/10 for me, even if I like John Doe as a character. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

Today is my 3,500th blog post! Well, technically yesterday was my 3,500th post, but I still wanted to mention it. Since I have talked about indie games on here a few times now, I would like to list a few I've been wanting to play. I'll only be listing three, since I think trying to list thirty five of them would be nearly impossible. If I play these games, I may review them in the future. But for now, they're just on my list because they sound interesting. Now then, on with the list! Enjoy!

1.) Mushroom Oasis

2.) Freak Circus

3.) John Doe

Why are animated video game adaptations usually more popular than live action ones? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! When it comes to video game adaptations, usually animated versions go over better with fans than live action ones. This usually depends on the type of game. For example, if a game looks more like an anime or cartoon, people often don't want to see it in live action. But if it already looks realistic, people don't mind it being live action. This is because many people play games because of the art style they use. I prefer the anime art style, so I would want the movies or shows based on the game to have the same art style. I don't play games with a certain art style so I can imagine what they would look like as real people, just like I don't watch anime so I can imagine what they'd look like as real people. Many other fans feel the same way, which is why they usually dismiss live action versions before they even come out. There are a few exceptions to this, but for the most part, fans prefer animation. I don't think the companies making the adaptations care about what fans prefer, but I wanted to talk about this anyways. Regardless, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

3, 2, 1, post time! For a long time now, fans have been unhappy with a lot of the newer Pokemon games. They all seem repetitive at this point, and it takes way too long for mainline games to be released. So at this point, is it worth it to be a Pokemon fan? There are so many Pokemon competitors that are, in some ways, better than the actual Pokemon games. There are games with more stories, more interesting monsters, different mechanics, and they often listen to their fans. The question is, do we still like Pokemon because it's good, or just because it's nostalgic? I think if Pokemon doesn't keep up with other games, it'll just continue to lose fans. I don't want this to happen, since I do still like Pokemon. But I also hope it'll get better to keep the fans entertained. Regardless, 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 once again be talking about Animal Crossing New Horizons. Recently I've talked about why it bothers me that villagers can't wear pants. This post will be similar to that. However, this time I'll be talking about outfits. There are outfits in the game that are full body outfits, which means they're shirts and pants together. However, when you give one to a villager, it turns into a dress when they put it on. This bothers me, because I would've loved to see villagers wear things like overalls, onesies, or suits. But instead they turn into dresses even on the boys. It honestly looks a bit silly, and it just further shows why villagers should just wear pants. I really hope they fix this in the future. I personally don't understand why it was made this way. It must've been much harder to turn outfits into dresses, especially since they had to make new designs for each one. 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 that bothers me in anime is when a young character turns into an entirely different character when they grow up. There have been a lot of times when a younger teen or child character looks and acts completely different after they become an adult. Yes, people change. People grow up and mature, but they're still the same person. They should grow up gradually like people do in real life, not all at once. There's also nothing wrong with a character still looking young and not fully grown after they turn 18, since 18 year olds often still look young. Another thing that bothers me is when an adult character looks young and the creator ends up making them look completely different in future games or animations. This usually happens because fans complain about it, as if adults are not allowed to look young. I know anime isn't always realistic, but I think it has a problem with young characters and young looking characters. I know this is only going to get worse, especially since people label anyone young looking as bait; which just creates more problems for real people who look young naturally. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

It's Easter! That means it's Bunny Day in Animal Crossing New Horizons! However, that also means it's time for this year's special post! I was going to list some bunny Pokemon for the holiday. But when I looked into it, there aren't very many bunny Pokemon to choose from. This is surprising to me, since rabbits are actually really popular animals even in Japan. So instead, I'll only be listing two bunny Pokemon for the holiday. Enjoy! Happy Easter everyone!

Is anime for adults? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! Many people say anime is for children and teenagers, since many series center around teenagers. However, there are a lot of different anime these days. There's even anime and games meant specifically for adults. No matter how old you get, there's usually anime available for you. Along with this, many newer anime and games feature characters that don't age, so you'll never really get too old for them. Some series even age up their characters as their audience grows. You don't have to be limited to younger characters when there are a lot of other things to choose from. Not only this, but even series like Pokemon have started including older adult characters for their older fans to enjoy. Personally one of my favorite series that features an older protagonist is That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime. It's a funny series, and the main character is now about forty years old, including his previous life. So as long as you like anime, you'll be able to find things to like. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

New day, new post! Recently I talked about the fact that villagers can't wear pants in Animal Crossing New Horizons. To be more specific, they can't wear pants, shoes, or socks. I think the reason this bothers myself and other fans is because other characters do wear them. I think it would be less weird if none of the animals could wear pants or shoes. But since some characters do wear pants, skirts, or shoes, it makes the villagers stand out in a bad way. It makes the other characters look more natural while making the villagers look out of place. Since villagers can wear shirts, dresses, hats, glasses, and other accessories, it feels odd to draw the line at pants. I would even understand them not wearing shoes, but to make it so you can give villagers pants, skirts, and shorts even though they can't wear them feels like the wrong choice. I hope one day they'll fix this in the future, but for now I don't like it. Regardless, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

It's post time! Nintendo has a major problem with its fanbase. This company hates the people who buy their products. This may seem harsh, but it's true. They force people to spend more money than necessary, they completely break consoles for no reason, they end services for older consoles, they only update older games so you'll buy the new ones, and the list goes on and on. I honestly don't understand why Nintendo still has fans. I stopped using Nintendo products for a few years, until I got a Nintendo Switch not long ago. But when I finally got it, it wasn't that great. That was for two reasons. One, the games were very expensive. And two, they brought out new games and systems far too soon after recent releases. They push away their fans who can't afford new things like they're above the "poor commoners". They act like if you can't afford their products, you don't deserve to have them. In a time when you can get cheap or free games on other devices, why are we, as consumers, still putting up with companies who treat their consumers this way? It's demeaning and has only gotten worse with time. Nintendo continues to get worse because they know their loyal fans will always come crawling back no matter what they do. Honestly, it's a bit disgusting. And it'll never change as long as they still have people buying their subpar products. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

It's April Fool's Day! So today, I will be talking about the Whoopee Cushion from Animal Crossing New Horizons. This is just about the only thing that is used to celebrate April Fool's Day in the game. It's available in three colors, and can be purchased from the Nook Shopping store. The colors it comes in are green, yellow, and red, and it's considered a seat. It can be customized into any of these colors, as well. When you sit on it, it does exactly what you would expect it to. It can't be placed on anything, which defeats the purpose of a whoopee cushion. But it's still a pretty neat thing. I think April Fool's Day would've been a good time to add something special, like a special jester outfit or jester mask for the holiday. However, I doubt that's going to happen. As always, here's a picture of the red whoopee cushion. Enjoy! Happy April Fool's Day!

And here's a picture of Fool's Gold from Identity V for April "Fool's" Day. Enjoy!
