Mostly Ace Attorney 3.Biggest revelation so far: There's another judge!!! Same great and wacky humor/character design/dialogue as the first two. Also waiting for the Langrisser I & II re-release (probably on Steam.). Classic Urushihara art is confirmed as an option. Played a bit of the demo on J...

I'm glad you like it! Yeah Barua fanart is almost nonexistent, hence why I gave her a cameo.

Happy year of the metal rat!

I played up till the first save point (which is too far in for my tastes), honestly I don't think it's worth the hype. I thought it was more of an SRPG, but it feels like a dating VN, where many of the dialogue options seem to be prompts where choices earn/lose affection with various heroines. The o...

I remember there being quite a lively discussion about Star Wars VIII when it came out, so how about Star Wars IX the Rise of Skywalker?... I was really disappointed to be honest. One opening scene in the beginning where they were randomly warping and resting ad naseum to avoid Imperial forces was s...

I think she is an admirable leader and I am glad. Considering the ongoing Hong Kong protests, closer ties with China...

I just watched Drifters. It has Elves *and* Samurai. How many other anime can claim that??? It's like they put Rurouni Kenshin and Lodoss War in a blender and it turned out great (or "delicious" if we want to take this analogy to it's logical conclusion lol.) Also the animation is really g...

I fell in love with Tempest from the get-go because of the name alone. Is that odd? haha Not odd. But in Japanese it's "Temzin", which sounds very similar to "Temujin" aka Genghis Kahn, which sounds even cooler I think. I'm not sure which versions you've played, but in TSS and S...

My Chemical Romance-Dead! I was an angsty teenager once...MCR is getting back together, so no better time to get back into them.

I know of a reference in TSS, and which is retained in English. The Vane Magic School honor roll is made up of references to TV witch characters. Westerners may recognize Samantha of Bewitched, which was a hit in Japan and a forerunner to the magical girl genre. Most of the others are the title cha...

"That was a record of my best work. Fortunately I now have the a chance to surpass it! And the world will once again be MINE on a delicious half-shell. And you can't stop me, Lucia!"

Awesome. I watched the anime a few years ago, I will have to check this out now too.

Thanks for the information, Temzin!

Can't get enough of this soundtrack.

Fascinating! There are enough points of similarity that I wouldn't be surprised if that was an inspiration. That said, it works well because the concept of a wind-up drummer or little drummer boy is well-known. There is video of the moment from the Japanese version of Eternal Blue on YouTube: https...

Relaying a question/photos from my Lunar Discord: "Recently I learned of the Japanese tourist attraction called Kuidaore Taro. It is a drummer clown statue that used to serve as a mascot for an old restaurant in Osaka, and has since become a landmark associated with the area. As soon as I saw i...

Totally on a YU-NO music kick now after finishing the game. I think the PC-98 gives the MEGA Drive a run for it's money as best chiptunes machine.

More Xenobia art is almost always a good thing. Very funny!
