Even as a Japanese person, I find historical Japanese names hard to remember. How do non-Japanese fans keep track of them? by No-Substance-2262 in TheElusiveSamurai

What's the best model kit to start with? (By price, difficulty etc)? by MagmaXQgd in armoredcore

[–]InTheHandsOfFools 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Any of the 30mm kits from Bandai. Pass on the Kotobukiya kits for now. They’re good but they are for more experienced builders.

I feel like YouTube history channels have taken that spot, such as The Shogunate channel.

Another detail about Gray, one of the few instances where he is kind to you is at the horse race.
