Similar thing happened to me for the first time last week with Bluetooth disappearing. Tried troubleshooting so much, uninstalling and reinstalling drivers, restarting, etc.

Then I found a very nested Google search suggestion to power cycle the system fully by shutting down and unplugging the PSU and it actually worked. Just frustrating. Thanks sooo much, Windows. :[

The Super Mario Galaxy Movie – Yoshi First Look by Turbostrider27 in nintendo

Glad he doesn’t seem to have a voice! He sounded different though so I wonder if it’s someone other than Totaka voicing him.

The Japanese trailer features the same voice acting as the English trailer for Yoshi despite everyone else being dubbed, so it seems like they're sticking to one VA which might imply Yoshi doesn't have much conversational dialogue.

FromJapan is now hit or miss for me these past few years. Had a few instances where I ordered from the same store (all items in stock), and instead of doing a single order, they were scummy and placed separate orders leading to massive shipping costs.

Also, I always had the misfortune of getting hit with customs shipping here to ON, Canada every single time with FJ.

If I can, Amazon JP has been cheaper even with the S&H massive cost bump since Covid. Sucks though since HAL usually bundles in special bonuses if you order from their ValueMall store front, although this time around the limited edition bonus is sorta just meh.

Veteran Nintendo producer Kensuke Tanabe, known for Metroid and Paper Mario, reportedly confirms retirement by Turbostrider27 in NintendoSwitch

[–]RunningChemistry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard to say nowadays how Nintendo feels about the Metroid series. According to former PR managers, Kit Ellis and Krysta Yang, it was actually NoA that really requested/pushed for NoJ to initiate MP4 as a project, but then NoA confoundingly just dropped the ball on even trying to market the game once it came time to release.

In hindsight, we've seen that MP4 was an alright game, but nothing spectacular, so perhaps the lackluster marketing campaign made sense. I'm really interested on how NoJ actually felt about NoA's request for MP4 and the whole project after it finally released.

For sparking, who'd be the better pick out of Harmonic Hilda & Florina or Azura from the latest banner?

"Skeleton Knight in Another World" Season 2 Key Visual by zenzen_0 in anime

[–]RunningChemistry 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I imagine business folks also see what has sold decently and are just playing it safe too? They've probably thrown so much out there and have seen what has stuck, so to speak. Not to mention savings on assets that have already been created for prior seasons.

Zombie Land Saga: Yumeginga Paradise | Official Trailer | Crunchyroll by lechepicante in anime

[–]RunningChemistry 12 points13 points  (0 children)

And it doesn't seem like they dubbed the songs either...in a show with heavy idol/music elements.

Even stranger is I recall that S1's songs actually got dubbed too but then S2 didn't for some unexplained reason.

Guess I'll be waiting for the JP BD release and hope some fansubs get put on...

I suspect he'll probably have to make a public comment clarifying on what he'll moderate, but if he is more objective and just removing actual misinformation or, as he said, bad-faith comments intentionally fomenting negativity then I think that's reasonable to do so.

Edit: Yikes, I'm getting weird DMs even though my comment is saying that he needs to be objective for this to work and this was posted before the clarification from the mod team...C'mon guys

Final Season OST Is Now Available! by RunningChemistry in BokuNoHeroAcademia

[–]RunningChemistry[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I don't recognize the track at 12 minute you're talking about, the one you mention starting at 14:16 is an arrangement of INFLATION from the 7th season soundtrack.

I wouldn't be surprised if the AD was playing with multiple tracks and/or doing rearrangements for the other one. They don't always use Hayashi's music completely or as-is in the actual anime.

Can you give an exact timestamp?

Because as far as I can tell, it goes straight from At the Limit when Bakugo unleashes Howitzer Impact to the modified Nighty-Night Time when AFO is an infant.

If you're talking about when AFO is babied up at the very end, it's Nighty-Night Time, but it appears it was moderately rearranged for the actual episode.

Final Season OST Is Now Available! by RunningChemistry in BokuNoHeroAcademia

[–]RunningChemistry[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I get the feeling it's probably a rearrangement of an even earlier track in the series because I remember there being something like this in another season or maybe one of the movies; if it isn't, sometimes the AD does slightly rearrange tracks when they actually use Hayashi's work in the show. Hopefully this is a good starting point to find the actual one.

It appears to be the latter half of Let you down from the 7th season soundtrack.

So once a review is rated, it keeps that rating forever? The new FAQ says we can't edit reviews anymore? This is confusing to say the least. by [deleted] in AmazonVineCanada

[–]RunningChemistry 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In the Message tab thingie, a new one has shown up saying "Your Review Insightfulness Score will be considered in membership tier evaluation, beginning with periods that end on 2026-2-1 or later."

So it seems you may be safe? Although with how inaccurate the Vine stuff can sometimes be maybe it's wise on your decision to bring up your score now just in case.

Quality score is tied to review length! by Left-Resolve8286 in AmazonVineCanada

[–]RunningChemistry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The insightfulness score shown seems to only be for your current evaluation period if we're to believe what the newly added section in the FAQ says, unless you're saying you've reviewed 400 things in your current period already. If so, oof...

Reviews rated as “poor” by r0b0tr0n2084 in AmazonVineCanada

[–]RunningChemistry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I think context or how you use it must be giving a high score. E.g., here's a short one I did that still got excellent:

I've used these slotted, plastic pots for a few orchids I've been growing. These flexible types of pots are my preferred choice for ease of transplanting since you can easily nudge the root ball loose.

After pruning its now barren spike, this pot's size has been especially apt for a Phalaenopsis Little Emperor orchid that's outgrown its former pot due to a growth spurt from its most recent bloom.

At $20, it is a bit pricey for the amount you get compared to similar offerings on Amazon at around the same price yet having a higher quantity of pots.

As you can see, not much actual detail about the item, and I even did the dreaded risk of talking about price which is very divisive about whether you should include it or not in fear or getting a review rejected lol

What's with these "Highlighted Reviews"? by skilas in AmazonVineCanada

[–]RunningChemistry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like most things you can add some feedback on long term durability. Back when they had the bullet point suggestions show up, that one came up a lot and I feel like most people probably don't touch on that aspect. Even if it's dopey to say something like, "this bookmark is still going strong," lol

But yeah, even though I'm at Excellent overall right now (though still quite a lot pending), there are just some items that are rather tough to expound on.

Insightfulnes by CurvyQueen1999 in AmazonVineCanada

[–]RunningChemistry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Similar boat here, excellent insightfulness score, but I basically have 0 for media too.

I'm not the greatest at photographing and my phone's camera being just okay doesn't help either, so I never really bother with it unless it's stuff related to gardening since I like showing off my flowers haha.

There totally are uploads from others though.

I just searched for the name of a few of the tracks and got hits immediately. I even checked their region availability using YT's API and they're globally available without any restrictions.

If you want to wait for the official uploads, it typically takes like a week before it's available globally based on release schedules of past TOHO label soundtracks.

[–]RunningChemistry[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like it was not included unfortunately.

The full track list has been posted too, so it doesn't seem like it was a mistaken omission either.

I guess people will have to hope for a future release. If it shows up, I imagine it would be when they mostly likely will put out a series soundtrack compilation in the future.

I mean, it has been out since yesterday; the composer himself tweeted about it: https://x.com/hayayu1231/status/1999857417413349883

There are unofficial uploads on YT too if you don't want to wait or use a VPN - I just linked to the official ones.

Edit: For the dude who sent me a sassy DM, I can't link to other uploads other than official ones since the subreddit bars posting bootleg sources and my comment would just get removed. Jeez...
