A Certain Magical Index, Vol. 1 -- Kazuma Kamachi

I haven't blown through a 200 page book this fast in a long time. Then again, a lot of that is bc LNs are much sparser on text... Still, I had fun finally getting this series started.

Mickey 17

Another Bong Joon-ho banger. Mickey has an absolutely horrible few years and, at the end of it all, learns that it's okay for him to be happy too. There are some moments when I wondered if Nausicaä helped inspire it

Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy (demo)

This game has ambition written all over it, and I really hope the full game delivers because it's got the potential to be overwhelmingly kino. I like the characters, scenario, and the music is spectacular! It's kind of Danganronpa 4, tbh.

Sword Art Online, Fairy Dance arc (rewatch)

Not as bad as I remembered, but still definitely the low point compared to what's before and after it. There's some good character writing/moments, especially for Kirito and Suguha, and as much as I dislike Asuna needing to be rescued-

Sword Art Online, Aincrad Arc (rewatch)

SAO is so good when you don't have an anituber in your ear saying it's bad. Jokes aside, it's an average to good show that immediately wastes its own potential. Still, I think it gets a lot of unfair hate, and there are things to like here.

Also yeah I'm rewatching

ohhh my GOD it's not fair how immediately and decisively she lost the Kiritobowl, Lisbeth deserves so much more than what Kawahara gave her man

As a guy who built his own PC and is trying to learn more about computers Lain's horrific cable management gave me anxiety (this isn't even the worst it gets)

My facial expression looking at my library of anime trying to decide what to watch next now that I've finished Lain

Serial Experiments Lain

I’m still trying to process what I just finished. What scenes are “real”? How much is recontextualized by the end? Pretty much everything. But it was enrapturing, as much as I love shows with action, slower and more cerebral shows scratch a specific itch

If I had to pick a trifecta of characters I relate to, these are them. There are more but these are the big three

I fw Loran's civilian style pretty strong, maybe I should invest in a few pairs of suspenders

The Wings - Yi Sang

Finished in one sitting, I loved it! The narrator's contentment with isolation turning to curiosity with pleasure and exchanging money, to the conflict with his wife and breakdown on the department store roof, was riveting to read. I'm gonna reread it at some point.

Screw it, thread of the things I've watched, read, or played in 2025. Not gonna be giving scores or anything like that, just (probably) quick thoughts and if I enjoyed it or not! I say probably bc I can get way too carried away when talking about things that captivate me

This gang is probably my favorite in JRPGs, tbh

There's just so much in Xenoblade 3 that resonates with me, man. I thought about the game again since it's been almost two and a half years since I beat it...
Maybe, sometime this year, it's time for a replay of the entire series

Thought abt Zero and how much I love his multi-series-long arc of searching for what he's fighting for and being able to define himself outside of what Wily meant for him and later the image of the hero projected on him. Like his last words to Weil is some of the hardest dialogue EVER
