Finally made the choice to skip Yakuza 5 entirely and start on Yakuza 6.

Older cat (Chaos) has decided to make a rare appearance in my room and jumped up on my bed for a nap (which is even more rare)...

Doubt this will accomplish much, but figured it might be marginally more useful than just pointing and mocking at the AI Banana Fish dub since that's just giving it more exposure, so would appreciate if folks could spread this message as much as possible

Didn't play too many "new" games this year, so I think I'm going to go with Pirate Yakuza.

Let's be honest, here. This is a company that can easily pay a decent wage for human actors, but it's also a company that - when tasked with growing, decided that having drivers piss in bottles and warehouse workers stress-cry in closets was an acceptable tradeoff.
They're a fucking trash corpo.

The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them
A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.

Shout out to u/BuffaloCrapSmeller on the retro anime subreddit for posting this, I had no idea where this meme came from until today!

It took me a while to finish this one. It wasn't necessarily boring, but it didn't grab me by the throat like S1 did. I'll watch future seasons (I think), but they won't be very high priority in my entertainment queue.

Instead of doing a consumerism on "Black" Friday, consider supporting small businesses, dropping a few coins in someone's ko-fi or go fund me, sign up for their patreon instead.
Life is expensive, things are hard. Drop coins to humans, not AI, or big corporations today.
QRP with your links!

Not a series that has aged well, but I still have a soft spot for this one from my early otaku days.

Ouch... ~$95 to get a Blu-ray disc of the new animation.
Maybe it'll get licensed?

Brain just pitched a new twist ending for current WIP.
It's not a bad idea, though I'm not sure if it's a good idea either. Going to have to sleep on this one.

I love this idea. My dad died when I was three and I had to figure out simple things like how to tie a tie and even shave on my own. Please retweet this because I know there are a lot of kids out there who could use some help with day to day life.

Nothing specific this week.
I am having an issue of thinking ahead rather than worrying about the current chapter.
I envy writers who can write chapters out of order and still make it make sense.
