It's time to post! Today's blog post will be about child servants from Fate/Grand Order. Now, there aren't very many child servants in the game at the moment. However, the ones that are there confuse me. Of course some of them are just children, but others are adults that look like children. But despite being adults, they are still referred to as children and left with the actual children. Not only this, but Taisui is both a child and an adult, since he can switch between forms. It's implied that he is an adult who conserves his power by staying in a smaller form. Since he's a god, it does make sense. But in the game itself, he's still referred to as a child. It's so difficult to tell which ones are actually children and which ones are small adults because they are collectively referred to as children. It's really confusing and I'm not sure why they did this. But, these are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. I wanted to talk about this because I've never understood why they did this, even though it's just a small problem. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

It's post time! With anime's steady rise in popularity, American corporations have decided to cash in on this trend. They do this by taking pre-existing franchises and turning them into an anime. Either through a special movie, or a spin-off series. Firstly, since it's American it technically isn't an anime to begin with. But if you want to ignore that fact, it also isn't going over well. Anime fans don't want it because it isn't really anime, and cartoon fans aren't interested because it isn't the same thing. Not everything can be an anime, and it feels cheap. Not only this, but it's kind of a waste. People pretty much never talk about these after they're released because people just aren't interested. The worst part is, these series would likely do well if they weren't attached to something that already exists. Instead of remembering something as a unique American anime, everyone remembers it as a cheap cash grab. It's so disappointing. I don't understand why companies don't see that original things usually do better. People want original things. And anime fans don't care if an anime comes from outside of Japan as long as it's good. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. I wanted to talk about this because it's so frustrating hearing about an interesting show and knowing it won't go over well because they're tying it to a different series. Regardless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

It's post time! A lot of people are excited about the upcoming Animal Crossing New Horizons update. It'll be the first one in years, and it's less than two weeks away now. It'll also be a free update, which is a nice surprise. However, it's important to remember this update wasn't a guarantee. Animal Crossing New Horizons was never supposed to get another update, so the fact that it's happening at all is amazing. If there are things missing from the update, we shouldn't be upset about it. We should enjoy what we do have. This may also open the door for new updates as well, so maybe other things will be added later. In the meantime, we should be looking forward to what will be added, instead of trying to guess about what might be added. We're already getting a lot of new content, so fans should be focusing on that right now. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

Why are Moomins so popular in the anime fandom? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! Firstly, Moomins aren't Japanese at all. They're actually Finnish. Despite this, they became very popular in Japan. Eventually a lot of people started thinking they were Japanese, even though they aren't. There was, however, a Moomin anime that was released in the 90's. It's the most well-known adaptation of the Moomins, and it's also the most popular. People are still watching it even to this day. Even though the Moomins were never Japanese, it's easy to see why it's become so popular in the anime community. For those of you who don't know what Moomins even are, here's a picture from the 90's series. Enjoy!

Are there too many Pokemon? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! There are a lot of Pokemon now, and not all of them are winners. But even less popular Pokemon still have their fans. With over a thousand to choose from, it can seem really overwhelming. Some may say there are too many. But I disagree. The whole point of Pokemon is to catch them all. People can pick their favorites, and there's something for just about everyone now. There's also always more to choose from, and fans still get excited when new Pokemon are announced. In fact, one of my favorite Pokemon is actually pretty recent. Meowscarada is one of the newer ones, and it wouldn't exist if new Pokemon weren't still being created. I look forward to new Pokemon all the time, and so do many other fans. I don't think there will ever be too many Pokemon. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

Is it wrong to like popular villagers in Animal Crossing? Well, that's what I'll be talking about in today's blog post! Sometimes a villager is released and everyone loves it. You start seeing it everywhere, people are desperate to have them on their island, and things get messy. Sometimes people dislike them for being popular, sometimes people think they're too basic, and others end up hating them because of the mess they cause just by existing. So is it bad to like them? I don't think so. People can't help what they like, and you shouldn't hate something just because it's popular. Things become popular for a reason, it's because a lot of people like it. You can dislike the way others react to it, but you shouldn't hate the thing for the way people act. So if you like villagers like Raymond, Marshal, Shino, or Sasha, then get them! Have them on your island and like them shamelessly! Because it's your island and you're allowed to like the villagers you like. Anyone who's bothered by it is just trying to ruin what's making you happy. But, those are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. I wanted to talk about this because a lot of players are against having popular villagers just because other people are against it. Regardless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!

It's January 1st! That means it's the first day of the new year. All of the villagers in Animal Crossing New Horizons are wishing players a Happy New Year, the winter anime season will be starting, and Fate/Grand Order is being unusually generous with New Year's rewards again this year. There's a lot to look forward to as an anime fan and a gamer. So for the first post of the new year, I'd like to wish you all a Happy New Year. Thank you to everyone who reads this blog, new and returning. And I hope you all have a good new year! I would also like to remind everyone that it's Lilia Vanrouge's birthday today as well, so here's a picture of him. Enjoy! Happy birthday Lilia! And Happy New Year everyone!
