4 hours 12 minutes to do all the MK8D tracks! But also the net dropped for like a minute right after stream ended, so thank god we avoided that and didn't invalidate the run! 😂

#SlazoCollection Day 407. The Art, Style and Sketchbook of Loish! Not one but three Loish artbooks! I can’t really remember a time when Loish wasn’t one of the most forefront artists online, and their works have remained captivating over the years, so these books were a must.

#SlazoCollection Day 406. Raidou Remastered! Its been nice seeing some of the old SMT spinoffs get a fresh lick of paint for current consoles, and for the franchise to not just be endless Persona games. And with this coming under Devil Summoner, I think I’ve somehow got versions of all of those now?

Finished (re)reading Apothecary Diaries vol 2! I do love how quickly and naturally the series scales up to start involving the other major players, even if I do feel it's too early to have the Emperor make a request of Maomao and be aware of her. Plus tons of great expressions in this volume.

#SlazoCollection Day 405. TimeSplitters 2! The iconic multiplayer shooter! Except I must admit this one mostly passed me and my friends of the time by. Especially since I wasn’t a shooty bang guy until the 360 era. But awesome to finally have it in my collection now.

#SlazoCollection Day 404. Ai Hoshino Nendoroid! Another Oshi no Ko Nendo! Because Ai is great for the definitely very long time she sticks around in the series honest guv. The fact the series remains as good as it does without her is testament to its strength.

#SlazoCollection Day 403. Super Mario Maker 2! I’m always surprised Nintendo don’t lean more into these game making style experiences. Imagine an official Pokémon one… But yes, seeing people’s creations in this and their evolution from the first game was a beautiful time. Followed by endless raging.

Fun to see people surprised by this considering Valve's been doing this shit to the entire visual novel industry for years.

#SlazoCollection Day 402. Tales of Vesperia & ToV Definitive Edition! It was only recently I realised I didn’t actually own the original 360 version of Vesperia, so made sure to pick up what might be the most acclaimed Tales game? Between this or Symphonia…

Finished (re)reading Apothecary Diaries vol 1! Still amazes me 5 years removed from reading it for the first time on Trash Manga Friends and having seen the anime and read the light novel, how much I still love the manga version of this. Maomao's expressions especially.

#SlazoCollection Day 401. Sombra plushie! I… don’t remember getting this? Huh. Anyway, Sombra was one of my mains on Overwatch 1 back in the day before all of the Actiblizz shitiness and OW2 idiocy. Enjoyed being able to mess with other players abilities and vanish away.

#SlazoCollection Day 400. Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes! I was delighted to pick up this bonkers… remake? Enhanced port? Alternative vision? Either way, got this earlier in the year, and can’t wait to watch it blow my tiny mind just like the sodding footsteps did in the original.

#SlazoCollection Day 399. WarioWare Gold! One of the few WarioWare games I’ve not played yet, though I must admit I’ve gotten this mixed up with DIY in my mind, but no, this is the “best of” style game, so I should probably play it just to see how many I recognise.

#SlazoCollection Day 398. What If? A great webcomic to great spinoff to great book and now great Youtube channel! Also pulling this out reminded me of the sheer number of books I have here to read, if time could pause for a year or two that’d be great.

#SlazoCollection Day 397. Watch Dogs Legion! I still remember the hype around the original Watch Dogs way back when and then reality slowly tearing that game’s vision apart. As for Legion, it’s fine. It’s a standard Ubisoft open world title, it ticks all those boxes and nothing more.

Probably going to pivot from Call of the Night now between arcs since I've only got a couple of the remaining 10 volumes, so need to figure out what series I'll round off my year of daily manga reading with...

Finished Call of the Night vol 10! As predicted, they bottled it with the slayer's grand plan which made literally no sense, as well as really not doing anything with Rila's character, but some of the other revelations were definitely interested. Plus the one Nazuna and Kyoko panel was really sweet.

#SlazoCollection Day 396. Metroid Prime Trilogy! The first time I played Prime before getting the Gamecube versions much later. Not even the only example of this, the first version of Resi 4 I played was on the Wii. I have barely touched this trilogy though, and really need to fix that one day.

#SlazoCollection Day 395. D.Gray-Man DVDs! Ah yes, the “complete” collection, in so much as everything Funimation could be bothered to dub. Which was half. Not that it matters too much, the manga with Hoshino’s fantastic art absolutely trounces TMS’s efforts.

#SlazoCollection Day 394. Nelke & The Legendary Alchemists! You’d think an Atelier anniversary game would be a guaranteed home run considering the rich history the franchise has to pull from, and yet everything I’ve seen and heard from players of this… maybe not.

Okay, last time we did this it didn't go great, but maybe if I mash A even harder? The World Next Door speedrunning never ends on www.twitch.tv/slazoking

#SlazoCollection Day 393. Burnout! Burnout’s always felt like one of those franchises that started with the second game, so I’m happy to now have the original in my collection. And while Paradise remains my fave, the classic style Burnouts hold a lot of childhood memories for me too.
