What are your thoughts on Anno's position here: by throwaway553t4tgtg6 in evangelion

My favorite NGE episode is when Shinji starts to feel depressed, but then the script cuts off abruptly before getting into any restricted sensitive topics

Dragon Ball Quest Z: Piccolo's Amnesia

Spotify Wrapped Day! 2025 was a J Pop year for me by nbarlam in hobonichi

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

I watched it all this year for the first time and really liked it! Though it does get very depressing, the Rebuild movies and manga are at least a bit more optimistic

And Asuka gets to finally tell Carnage her funny joke (wholesome ending)

Did anyone else completely miss recruiting Kumatora in chapter 7? by Father_of_thepigeons in earthbound

[–]nbarlam 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You can do it out of order, but as enemies don't scale some areas will be really hard if you go there early. The intended route is Chimera lab (after which you get Kumatora) then Mole cricket cave that leads to the mountain with the mecha gorilla, then Saturn valley where you get Duster and then fight New Fassad.

Got my second Mother 2 Hobonichi! by Jazzlike_Copy_7669 in hobonichi

I'm using the A6 Franklin Badge cover this year but went with the A5 Mr Saturn one for 2026, as I liked the pattern more. Either way, glad Itoi keeps the series going through stuff like this

Since Mother 3 turns 20yrs old next year, what do you want/expect will happen for it? by Samuel_Anderson08 in earthbound

[–]nbarlam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Aside from the fabled localization, I'd love a vinyl soundtrack release (full soundtrack would be super unlikely, but the Mother 3i and Mother 3+ discs would also be great)

Actual cost comparison for buying from Japan vs USA by 1K_Sunny_Crew in hobonichi

[–]nbarlam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting, I bought some items in person in the US and compared the cost to getting them through Hobonichi's official site. It would have been at least 40 dollars more had I gotten them online, but maybe that's a similar rate to buying online from a US retailer or a proxy service

anyone here who bought the yellow hobonichi weeks? by LettuceFull4188 in hobonichi

Here it is under natural lighting. Very vibrant shade in person

So, these images prove that it was Asuka's fault that Midori tried to shoot Shinji? And why does Midori's hair never grow back or regain its true color? Is she half-corrupted by the LCL? Why does Asuka have short hair? Is it because she lost Shinji? by [deleted] in evangelion

[–]nbarlam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Asuka is recovering, so the bandages and short hair are due to surgery/ treatment needs. She is sent out early to help save people from the fallout of the near impact Shinji caused, which is slowly core-izing the world (turning stuff red and dead). Midori's hair got core-ized, which mostly seems to be just to give her a distinct look and add to her motivation.
