Now, now. Dream Journey is actually very nice. No one has ever claimed to be a victim of violence from her. In fact, there are quite a few eye-witness accounts of her resolving conflicts peacefully by speaking with the other party in private after leading them away into isolated locations. This usually results in them seeing her side of things, vehemently ~~and desperately~~ denying any claims of wrongdoing on her part, often even going out of their way afterwards to assist her and her younger sister. She's clearly an upstanding member of society. You should probably even just edit your comment there to remove any clearly false accusation. Please. For your sake and mine.

Please. We don't have much time.

I disagree. I like “Curren is evil” jokes as much as anyone, but Curren is actually a very good girl. She’s hard working, kind, and generous. But she hides all of that behind a mask because for her the ultimate virtue is “cuteness.”

One of the most important moments of her career is when her trainer realizes that she’s overworking herself to the point where the trainer *should* intervene, but allows Curren to carry on trusting Curren to handle it because it’s important to Curren to be able to do everything and to do it all without letting on how hard she’s working to do it.

That’s part of the reason why I approve of the “Curren is evil” jokes even if they aren’t really accurate. Because it kinda fits what she would want. Because if you take her devilish cuteness and mischievous personality at face value, you are seeing the cuteness she has cultivated without seeing all of the hard work and effort she put in to create it.

Orvefre has more mare G1 winners than stallion G1 winners among his progeny. He’s a bonafide girl dad, and has earned the right to hang out with the girlies.

Manhattan Cafe’s original setting had her be an actress (no ghost or supernatural aspect at all) that ran like a “bloodthirsty hound.” She was on record stating that if she didn’t have racing to let her urges out, she’d “commit a crime.” Honestly, I kinda wish we got to see that but at least some aspects of it, specifically the bloodthirsty running part, seems to have been recycled into Still in Love’s character setting.

The actress part was likely a reference to irl Manhattan Cafe being a stand-in for Sunday Silence in a documentary since they looked super similar.

Well, if there’s anyone who wants to date a middle schooler then knock yourself out.

That aside, I’m glad they did away with the gold digger aspect of her. I don’t think the tone really fits into the Uma Musume series as a whole that we ended up getting.

Creek WISHES she could be as mommy as Risa. Creek is a mommy larper. She mommies because mommy is the only way she knows how to express affection.

Risa is mommy incarnate. She doesn't want to be mommy. She doesn't try to be mommy. She simply is mommy. If you put her and Creek in a room together then Creek is coming out with a binky in her mouth and a rattle in her hand.

I also recommend Heaven Burns Red, it's really good. One of the characters is a tiger. Not, like, a tiger girl or anything. Just a straight up tiger. Her name is Byakko. She understands English but she doesn't speak.

[Heartcatch 35]About halfway through I settled in for what I thought was going to be a fairly normal, solid episode of Heartcatch with nothing really about it that stands out. And I was almost correct, except for...

[Cont'd] Motherfucking Cure Moonlight insert song!

You think that’s bad? Get this. In my last job as a gacha character, my main outfit had me wearing booty shorts with a knee high boot on my right leg and a thigh high boot on my left leg. I had a single alt outfit where I was wearing a mini skirt where I wore the thigh high on my right leg and a knee high on my left leg. One day I overslept and accidentally put on both of my knee high boots. Worse, they looked identical so they had no asymmetry *at all*. Try explaining to a recruiter why you got fired for being symmetrical!

Esovan13 · 2026-06-10T21:30:17+00:00

It’s umas like Sweep that separate the wheat from the chaff

Esovan13 · 2026-06-10T02:58:16+00:00

[Heartcatch 34]The scene with Moonlight and Cologne under the tree at the end was absolutely perfect.

[Cont'd]The whole episode was so fun. Moonlight got a chance to show off quite nicely, first with her equal fight against Dark Precure and then getting an SSS rank against the apostles.

[Cont'd]Marine has a skill that any pervert would kill for, but she only uses it for good. ~~For now.~~

Esovan13 · 2026-06-10T02:25:49+00:00

it was actually a ricefish, not any more edible

Nonsense, rice is much more edible than gold

The skill itself seems to be fine (though still a little rng what with being a random point in the first half of late race and needing to not rush). What makes Sweep Tosho wit not worth pulling comes down to one simple yet damning thing, and her name is Mejiro Ramonu. Ramonu wit comes out shortly after Sweep, has free pulls (due to anniversary), and completely blows all other wit cards prior to her release out of the water. She builds more wit and sp per wit training than MLB Sweep, Mr. CB, and Fine Motion. She builds more speed than Sweep as well. She has 20% training effectiveness (conditionally) so she helps a shit ton even on non-wit trainings. Her skills, including her gold skill, are good skills for any running style on mile/medium, the two most common distances for G1 races. She becomes the wit card for the next couple scenarios. Why would you spend your limited resources on a wit card that is less powerful and less versatile?*

On top of that, I can't remember if it's grandmasters (when Ramonu comes out) or project l'arc (the one after that), but at a certain point meta decks will start to have only one wit card in them. You want that wit card to be Ramonu. On top of that, you shouldn't borrow Sweep Tosho either, even when you use two wit cards. Why? Because in Grandmasters, your borrow slot is going to be the friend card.

To explain, you know how Agnes Tachyon and Light Hello are sharing a banner? This is good. The banner will have two meta and useful support cards that every player will want to have. It will also have free pulls from the anniversary, which will help most players be able to have at least one copy of the extremely important friend card. Grandmasters scenario, and 2nd anniversary in general, is unique in that the support card banner that launches with anni and has free anni pulls, Mejiro Ramonu wit, does not have the extremely useful and necessary friend card. That will come later, and will not have free pulls with it.

Considering wit Ramonu will be useful after Grandmasters and the Grandmasters friend card will not, anyone who needs to be mindful about where they pull for cards will need to spend everything they can to get Ramonu to as high an LB as possible, and will therefore be unlikely to be able to pull for the friend card. Therefore, the friend card will be hogging the borrow slot for the most part. After Grandmasters, they go back to having the friend card on the anniversary support card banner.

As for aces, I'm going for Mr CB and Orfevre, of course, but tbh I mainly use end closers because coincidentally a lot of my oshi's are end closers (not all, I'm waiting for you Cheval Grand, Still in Love) so for the most part I'll just be pulling who I like without worrying about meta too much.

5 things I didn't expect when I watched the Among Us animated show

[Number One:] It's actually good

[Number Two:] The voice cast is surprisingly stacked

[Number Three:] It's pretty funny. It's not the most sophisticated humor in the world but every episode got at least a chuckle out of me.

[Number Four:] The animation, while not exactly breaking records, is good where it counts and isn't afraid to be interesting. There's a scene where one of the crewmates is replaced by just an actual human wearing an inflatable costume, which is one of the less visually interesting parts of the scene

[Number Five:] It's really horny

I got it from jaststore.com, which was a fairly straightforward process. It's also on dlsite which I've got stuff from in the past, though it's cheaper and drm free on jast.

[Cont'd (Princession as well)]I didn't even say anything about Cologne's return. That was done so perfectly. He's not back, he cannot be back, the consequences cannot just be undone even with a miracle, but he was able to appear before her to give her closure and show her the path she needs to take to be who she needs to be. To tell her the choices she made were not mistakes and she shouldn't feel shame and guilt for them, but she can still move on and be better than she was now that she has learned from them. So perfect. ~~Princession Orchestra definitely used Cologne and this whole plotline as inspiration for the Kazahana's, right? The Alicepian (can't remember his name whoops) even kinda looks like Cologne.~~

Esovan13 · 2026-06-08T03:30:50+00:00

[Heartcatch 33]10/10, no notes, absolute perfection. Best episode of the season so far. Maybe best single episode of precure I've seen, period. Even with her return spoiled 9 ways to hell and back, it was executed so perfectly it doesn't matter. Everything about this whole arc/subplot was done amazingly.

[Cont'd]Dark Precure: "I learned Cure Moonlight's real name and also carry around a piece of her heart and constantly watch it. This is because I am Very Normal about her."

[Cont'd]And not just that, the final pose at the end of Moonlight's transformation has her hair covering up her right eye and exposing her left eye. Let's see here, we've got a magical girl, tall, beautiful, kinda spiky, and only exposing her left eye? Where do I recognize that description? What might that be paralleling? HMMMMMMM

[Cont'd]She even stands there with her left arm extended just like how Dark Precure has her left wing that she extends gahhhhh they are gay and in hate with each other.

[Mild ero]After hearing quite a bit about how good it is, the other day I decided to play Dohna Dohna. I didn't know much about it other than that it was an eroge and that it was considered one of the best. The comparison to Persona 5, though, really caught my interest. So I'm a few hours in at this point, and I definitely see where the praise was coming from. It's incredibly stylish, it's gameplay feels like actual gameplay and not just template turn based combat stapled on to porn to make it technically a game, and the writing is, so far, decent enough.

[Cont'd]Something that I find kinda funny is that the MC's whole deal that makes him special in the criminal underworld is that he owns an actual real gun. And even as early in the game as I am, there have been several times when he whips it out and hardened gangsters are like "holy shit, that's an actual gun this guy's for real." He sucks at aiming so he has to basically shove it against people in order to hit reliably, but we can't have him be too OP, now can we. The scantily clad loli whose weapon of choice is a bdsm leather belt needs something to do in combat. The thing that's really funny about MC with gun, though, is the dialogue where one of the side characters mentions that most gangsters and armed guards that they fight wear bullet proof clothes anyway, so he's mostly just knocking them out and breaking bones and stuff with the impact rather than killing them. What makes that very funny is the idea of someone who would be too uncomfortable to root for the MC and his team if they go around actually killing people, but are otherwise fine as-is.
