Writes about obscure & forgotten anime/manga/games/media at The Land of Obscusion over on Blogspot. Hopeless fan of all things Masami Kurumada. Published (once) on ANN. Living contradiction. He/him... Who again?

Instead of crapping on YouTubers who want to get attention & make people annoyed by calling titles like Escaflowne or Tenchi Muyo! "obscure" or "forgotten", I say visit this here blog, which for ~15 years has focused on stuff that ACTUALLY IS "obscure" & "forgotten"!

So my first Anime NJ++ is in the can and all in all I had a very positive experience. It's been a long while since I've spent any significant time at a smaller convention, but this one felt extremely comfy to me — like a throwback to cons from 15 years ago! I hope it does well enough to keep going.
Anime NJ++ is off to an auspicious start for me. This was Keita Amemiya's autograph: an entirely freehand ink pen drawing of Zeiram! It was incredibly impressive watching him just whip this up inside of two minutes.

Every time I come across something in my research that Becky intersected with it is a delight. One of the finest folks to have ever made their way through video games.
This is it. I nearly suffocated by using the reetroom. I’m asking my doctors agreeing on a short cure. Only really sure painful prolonged angona is hereafter the grim reaps me. Please donate on the funeral fund me now.

I have literally a hundred games that I've never even opened dating back to the PS2 era and a Steam backlog hundreds deep. I'll probably be dead before I finish that.
"If you hate GenAI you're going to have to stop playing new games when they all start using it"

My brother in Christ, my backlog is literally thousands of games long. I have lifetimes worth of earlier titles to play, & I will gladly do that instead of boiling the oceans for a new CoD or whatever

Did You Know?

The Inuyasha mustaches episode from Adult Swim's 2004 April Fools' stunt was considered potentially lost…until now!

Thanks to olimarfunk and @danmanshow.bsky.social we have a near complete rip (with a few minutes of The Big O) digitized.

Please help us find the whole night!

I got an actual "Your silence on this subject is deafening" message this AM, so, super-quick: Nobody here owes anyone commentary about anything. This is a public park. It's full of interesting people. We hang out here, make friends, and chat, and then we leave to do whatever it is we do. That's it!

They're putting on an Ultraman stage show at the American Dream mall here in NJ. This is nuts, I have to go see this.
This thing is really cool, but it's also unbearably funny to see it flop around.

I also use Carrd to host my subtitle editing and closed captioning portfolio. It's proven very useful.

I finally finished watching all 50 episodes of Kochikame that Remow offer on the It's Anime YouTube channel (which, by their admission in the replies, is all they had the rights to, despite apparently saying at a con panel that they had up to Ep 100).

Simply put, Kochikame TV is just hilarious.

PSA: the virus I had this week , with a low grade fever and throat blisters so bad you can’t even drink water, appears to be going around. Runs its course in a week, but it is HELL. If you get it, ask your doc for Prednisone (incl a cough syrup), and stock up on Advil, Tylenol and meduca honey.
