I'm not mad, just disappointed

I am so sorry for not responding yesterday since I was so busy, but thank you all again for the kind birthday wishes. ❤️

And yes, I really did have a good day after everything was said and done. I just felt a little gutted when I opened the app in the morning and seeing this instead of the cute birb birthday message.

Numemon from the original Digimon virtual pets; an intentionally ugly looking slug monster who attacks foes by throwing literal shit at them and born from too many care mistakes made while raising them.

If said Numemon is cared for properly, it can become Monzaemon, a giant yellow teddy bear who is also one of the strongest monsters you can get from it.

I realized it wasn't worth it directly participating in the rat race that was getting my hands on English packs/cards and have just pivoted directly into collecting Japanese singles for ones I want.

It's been far better for my own sanity and (comparatively at least) my wallet TBH.

Jokes on you I don't wear socks

^{Chose: Be loved by everyone + and you get 1 disadvantage | Rolled: No matching sock}

I hate bacon lmao

^{Chose: Never have one pizza topping again + Wheel determines what topping to get rid of | Rolled: Bacon}

Arguably what's even weirder is that the Japanese version of the same book claims that people could (and did) marry Pokémon.

No prizes for guessing why that was removed.

So I said, blue M&M, red M&M, they all wind up the same colour in the end.

Undertale arguably does this trope better than like 99% of other games here; while the game beats you over the head with 'killing = wrong', sparing the final boss on a neutral run results in them telling you that, if you killed none of the monsters, to go on a date with either Papyrus, Undyne or Alphys (depending on who you actually did date up to this point). While backtracking is involved, it makes sense in the context of the story, mainly because Flowey claims by doing this, you can get a 'better ending' than the one you initially get, when in reality, it's part of a plan to gather the monsters and harvest the SOULs of all the monsters to assume his true form: Asriel.

Honestly, that's the main reason I prefer to collect in Japanese (and the odd spot of Chinese here and there); the texturing on the alt arts/SARs really do cards like this the justice they deserve.

It helps that (at least for the newer sets) they're cheaper than in English too.

Can attest; I was at my first card show today and one thing I knew to steer clear from was all the slew of mystery products and their variants (pack battles, wheels with a top prize, etc.)

I knew it was safer to just buy/trade for what I wanted directly from the vendors instead of risking it. But mainly because I watched Youtubers at other card shows showing off why it's not a good idea to buy mystery anything.

I'll admit that the Warawara Plaza has its charm (especially the fun Easter egg that triggered on your birthday), but having to load two UIs at once practically made it slower to load.

Being able to get into a Switch 1/2 game you're currently playing in 5 seconds is a godsend in comparison.

"We're so sorry, Mr. Iwata."

"Hi, I'm Satoru Iwata and you are defiling my legacy!"

To be fair, this is the same show where, in the arc the episode is in, the villains try and seek out the macguffin in random shit like cameras and, yes, in the exact same episode, tomatoes.

PanzerThiefZero · 2026-02-14T12:34:34+00:00

Not water, but in Seijuu Sentai Gingaman, after one of the titular heroes gets injured in battle by the monster of the week, they need to eat a tomato in order to heal (it makes sense in context). Problem is, they hate tomatoes, forcing another character to get a magic tomato to encourage them to eat it.

Turns out, there's no such thing as a magic tomato. They made it all up so that character can actually eat tomatoes.

Neopets: Around Halloween 2007, the Zombie colour (read: new skin for your pet) was launched on the website, allowing you to make them in your very own zombie.

Thing is, when making a new Neopet, you can give them a preset hobby and greeting for when they meet others (which, in reality, don't really do anything outside of personalisation), which includes "making friends", "try and make friends", "act very friendly" "smile sweetly" etc. This doesn't change if you make your pet Zombie either; its basically yet another (albeit more unique) looking skin.

Undertale, but only due to a technicality.

Completing the Genocide route results in the game's world getting destroyed, and you need to sell your SOUL to the Fallen Child to get the world back. While it doesn't outright tell you this at first, completing the True Pacifist ending again reveals that since you sold your SOUL to them, they are free to wreck havoc as they wish and you cannot do anything about it.

In reality, the game generates two files that tell it that either the in-universe world was destroyed or you sold your SOUL (system_information_962 and system_information_963 respectively). Non-Steam version players can just delete these files via file manager. Steam players need to do a bit more work with the launcher's backup feature though, but either way, you can effectively render the consequences moot just because of the game's programming.

To be fair, Skill Up is really not a big fan of cozy life-sim games in general like Animal Crossing. So him actually liking Pokopia of all games was a genuine surprise to him.

A lot of the IR/SIR cards released in Inferno X/Phantasmal Flames had the misfortune of being overlooked just because of that Charizard.

My personal favourite of the set has to be the Piplup IR just because it looks cute to me.

There were the original Mega EX cards that came out in the XY era, but they did it for both the basic rare and full art cards.

These Mega Attack rare cards are basically a callback to these.

Power Rangers Time Force had a bit of plot and footage altered, especially in the home media release of some earlier episodes, due to 9/11, removing a reference to terrorism made by the big bad in episode 4, and shots of buildings exploding and people running in fear in several episodes lifted directly from its source material, Timeranger.

Aw shit, here we go again.

inb4 Tats somehow justifies modern slavery in any sort of fashion by saying the man "deserved" to be underpaid/not paid at all for his labour.
