I like Soulsborne games, visual novels, manga and books | Mostly just rambling about my favorites
Utawarerumono (2002) ✅
Technically a replay, but I mostly focused on reading what was cut from Prelude (heheh) and rereading key scenes with Mirror Moon's translation. Overall not much reason to play this when the remake exists, but was nice to go back to the roots and the OG gameplay.

Oldboy ✅
Had a fantastic time watching this and can see why it's so highly regarded. While I could sort of put the twist together before it was revealed, the execution was still harrowingly disturbing and hard to stomach. The corridor fight scene was so damn good.

Lobotomy Corporation ✅
"Why do we have to know the cold agony of loss, the insidious poison of obsession, the soft light of wishing, the unbearable pain of despair; then the hope to embrace it all with open arms?"
Never working for this company again. This game is fucked up.
9.5/10

Xenosaga Episode II: Jenseits von Gut und Böse
Not on the same level as the first game, but it's good. Story is the biggest highlight and what carried it for me, wasn't a big fan of anything else, though the gameplay was kinda clever. Albedo and Jr. the greatests.

Drakengard's gameplay is something that every individual on this planet should experience at least once

Kidou Senshi Gundam ✅
This marks the start of my Gundam journey, and I found myself loving this more than I thought. As dated as it is on a few aspects; the writing, realism and delicacy in handling its anti-war themes are more than enough to elevate it.
Also Char is my GOAT.

I decided to give the Devilman manga a try, just read a bit of Volume 1 to get a taste.
I ended up reading the whole thing and pretty much binged it. Safe to say I loved it. I knew I would with how much I enjoyed Crybaby when it released, but still, damn.
