A fellow hole-enjoyer! I myself saw the Ryugado Cave in Kochi last week, where there was a 2000-year old vase that some guy forgot (idiot) and is now covered in limestone deposits. They call it “God’s Vase” (神の壺)

Also spotted: bats (inside) and crabs (outside).

no better way to spend a vacation back home in Kochi than going to the Anpanman Museum. can confirm that Takashi Yanase was goated with the sauce.

it's basically a bundle of cinnamon twigs that kinda look like a whisk or broom. they smell really nice and you hang them up for decoration!

I can finally say... I helped translate the English version of Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time! And man, what a journey it's been.

I'd like to (once again) thank my amazing team of localizers who breathed Life into every corner of Reveria. You guys are true Artists! 🖌️❤️
